I hear people clapping at the end of the first section. It doesn’t bother me, it simply means that fresh ears are hearing a masterpiece! I hope they appreciated this performance!! Great work!
I attended a concert (Dvork New World Symphony,) where after the first mvt everybody clapped. Ok. After the second, everybody clapped. Uh... After the third movement, everybody clapped. Finally, after the fourth and final movement, everybody had gotten the idea--and nobody clapped!. The conductor turned around and said, OK, Now! And the audience went wild.
@@nedcrouch3202 Funny! I think clapping after movements is perfectly sensible. This unnatural silence at the end of a dramatic first movement (say, Brahms Piano Concerto 1) is ridiculous, and wasn't always this way. Even in opera, we applaud at the end of certain arias. Why not do that when movements are finished?
Ravel wrote the alborada as one of his "miroirs' for piano, then orchestrated it in a particularly brillant manner. Having orchestrated the central recitative for bassoon with divised strings is especially moving.
Great performance, setting, and camerawork! I love the urban setting and views of a happy, attentive, and lively audience. No one is asleep here! Some say that classical music is dead. Well, they weren't at this concert. What fun!
In my top 10 favorite orchestral showpieces. It is so bizarre, because the gracioso is a "jester" with all the amusing Spanish sounds, yet Ravel's masterful piece hints at some kind of romantic and sinister subtext that is creepy.
One of my absolute faves as well. Right now I can't come up with words to describe it . . But he really knows how to depict Spanish culture in alluring ways. His mom was Spanish and I believe he grew up in the Pyrenees area of France which is I believe Spain influenced . .
Que juego, no. Qué interpretación. Tocar o sonar música en francés es como en ruso e inglés: Jugar, play, jouer. Pero dear Google en español es tocar o en este caso interpretar. You are welcome!!
Es realmente maravilloso Ravel. Sus temas hispánicos no tienen rival más que en Albéniz. Y siendo francés su mérito es enorme. Sin dejar de mencionar a Laló, obviamente.
Ravel's Alborada del Gracioso is a piano piece from his set of Miroirs, he chose to also orchestrate it and that's the piece that's played in this video
Aha! You saw it too. Ok, maybe it's fun to focus the camera on attractive females in the orchestra, but it can prove to be an embarrassing moment for them, as well as the cameraman. I once played in the cello section of an orchestra with a stand partner who did not play very well. The cameramen kept focusing on her because she was a blonde, but her fingers moved in all the wrong directions when they moved at all, and her bow slid hither and yon. All of this was televised. Hmm...

That's a very positive way of looking at this topic, which is sadly quite rare.
Just plain stupid ignorants. No way around it

Ravel never fails to impress me. There hasn’t been a piece of his I don’t like! 😍
And he was SO hard on himself, always feeling like he wasn't measuring up to Beethoven, etc. 😔😔😔😔😔😔😔
This is one of the most "colorful" orchestrations I've ever heard. Ravel was indeed a genius at creativity.
The shots of the city are marvelous, perfectly fitting for the music
What a beautiful piece ! Thanks David Bruce

Ravel has such an unique way to mix and turn his orchestration works. He just knew where everything had to go to sound just perfect.

Ditto. Ravel being absolutely brilliant yet again.
E o mais estranho é que isso foi feito para um amigo dele....

Rhythmische Leistung dieses farbenreichen Meisterstücks mit perfekter Synchronisierung aller Instrumente.
I love 2:45 where they showcase a small group and they get embarrassed and start laughing.
Que grande era Maurice Ravel!uno de los compositores más influyentes de la historia.
That triple tonguing... 😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌
My son was just practicing his triple-tonguing, so I looked up this piece to show him my favorite example. Not disappointed!

I finally looked for a translation of the title: "The Dawn of the Funny". That's hilarious.
There is something extraordinary in this performance
The spilitual depth of Ravel‘s music is immeasurable, and beyond description
What a spectacular rendition!
Боже! какая музыка, какая игра...спасибо...

Fabulous version!
Just Beautiful
1:24 the person who is on the middle of screen looks like Shostakovich.
Ravel was a master of dynamics, which are completely lost in this highly compressed audio.
i love this
진짜 짱이당.. . ...
As a flamencoguitarist I consider Ravel as a genious.
Bravo!!!
Like Schonberg's Op. 25 Suite for piano, Miriors is a masterpiece of unprecendented proportions
bravissimo!

Did Ravel transcribe the orchestra version as well?
Yes
