Sammartini: The Late Symphonies Vol. 1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 มิ.ย. 2024
- Composer: Giovanni Battista Sammartini
Artists: Accademia d'Arcadia, Allesandra Rossi Lürig (conductor)
The first recordings of late symphonies by G.B. Sammartini, ‘the father of the classical style’. Although Sammartini laid the foundations of the symphony his works are virtually unknown. In Italy the Arcadia Foundation seeks to correct this. The Sammartini project set out to publish and catalogue the composer’s works. Another aim is to perform and record previously unpublished works, including the late symphonies.
There are 68 symphonies attributed to Sammartini with certainty. Another 74 might be by him as well. This release is the first of two volumes containing four late symphonies and a quintet.
Stylish performances by the Accademia d’Arcadia on period instruments under Alessandra Rossi Lürig. These first recordings offer a most enjoyable and interesting insight into this unjustly neglected composer.

@@migves540 Thank you. It seems Brilliant Classics don't have a clue.
@@-dimitris They're brilliant at providing you the music so you can comment so instead! :)
@@migves540 Thanks Miguel. Was so confused 😕
Sammartini is a really a outstanding author in symphonies. The harmony are complete and the different movements although obviously distinct, are connected brightly, became the music sublime without abrupt changes. This author is the symphonies father, with more than one hundred composed, although, as were previously referred, most part of them aren’t known. How a talent like this is unknown? Thanks to the Accademia d'Arcadia for the sublime orchestration and to give us occasion to know such a beautiful music of this outstanding compositor.
Giovanni Battista Sammartini (c. 1700 - 15 January 1775) was an Italian composer, violinist, organist, choirmaster and teacher. He counted Gluck among his students, and was highly regarded by younger composers including Johann Christian Bach. It has also been noted that many stylizations in Joseph Haydn's compositions are similar to those of Sammartini, although Haydn denied any such influence. Sammartini is especially associated with the formation of the concert symphony through both the shift from a brief opera-overture style and the introduction of a new seriousness and use of thematic development that prefigure Haydn and Mozart. Some of his works are described as galant, a style associated with Enlightenment ideals, while "the prevailing impression left by Sammartini's work... [is that] he contributed greatly to the development of a Classical style that achieved its moment of greatest clarity precisely when his long, active life was approaching its end".
He is sometimes confused with his elder brother, Giuseppe, a composer with a similarly prolific output though not equal renown or influence who ended up in the service of the Prince of Wales.

thank you for this info...I love discovering composers that are not that well known...this music is terrific!
It does sound more classical than gallant indeed.
Beautiful and so relaxing. Thank you for introducing to another overlooked and undervalued composer.
No question about it, this composer's' music is quite "anointed" and delightful to the ears...JN
So many unjustly neglected composers! Why do we have to discover them on this excellent channel? Why don't those who arrange programmes of concerts expose us to these lesser known masters? rather than yet another Brahms symphony? Nothing against Brahms, but life is short and there are so many composers out there who deserve to be heard.
I agree.I get tired of hearing same old music.they push the big names on you while hiding these wonderful composers and who contributed greatly to music.its all about superiority,greatnes and whats great to them,while they dont realize everyone has diferent values,character ,moods and they wont appeal to the same music.i dont even like beethoven.i prefer the spiritual and majestic music of vivaldi to mozart and over beethoven anytime.so its all about them and to push their superiority bull and play what they esteem.youtube and others introduced me to a lot of very good musicians.try giovani paisello,musio clemente,leonardo vinci,heinrich beiber,henry purcell,johann stamitz,alesandro marcello,antonio salerie ,buxtehude,ariaga(the spanish composer that was highly regarded and died young),antoine reicha,
If you are into symphonies and tired of the same names and suposed geniuses then also try johann stamitz,antonio saleiri,anton reicha,giovani paisello,muzio clemente,andrea luchesi,juan arriaga.they are all great composers but they are forgotten and its unfair but they will rid you of the boredom of having to listen to the so called geniuses over and over again and keep things refreshing
Fantastic sentiment! I am from Chicago (USA) and our local classical station WFMT, is highly regarded across the country. One day, they played a piece by a composer one of the longest tenured program hosts had never heard of.......Myslivecek. I then realized that i needed to find a better source for my musical consumption and turned almost exclusively to the internet. Fortunately, I discovered Radio Suisse Classique and Venice Classic Radio, and consider them two of the best in the world. I am a HUGE fan of Mozart and Haydn. However, there are so many other composers out there who produced melodically beautiful music that have unfortunately, gone unrecognized. RSC and VCR have magnificently extensive libraries and have enlightened me to much beautiful music from these lesser-known masters. Thanks to Brilliant Classics as well. I hear pieces on the radio and am able to find more content from the composer(s) here on their TH-cam channel. Please everyone, at the very least, like these videos and subscribe to this channel. This ultimately leads to financial support. They deserve compensation for the treasures they are providing us access to.
Real answer: because there were literally thousand so them, most people aren't going to remember hundreds of names, and if you're barely getting by on funding as an orchestra etc. you want to bring in people and that means a massive focus on the few they'll have heard of. The harsh realities are that there's a massive crisis and decline in revenue for a very expensive profession. That said, a huger proportion of performances are from lesser-known composers (say outside the top 50-100 or so) than I'd expect.
The radio has an apparent motto, a Brahms symphony a day keeps the doctor away. Brahms' is stodgy and in my view vastly overrated. Especially his symphonies.
Lebhafte und wunderschöne Interpretation dieser fein komponierten Sinfonien mit gut harmonisierten und perfekt vereinigten Tönen aller Instrumente. Die geniale Dirigentin leitet das ausgezeichnete Ensemble im rhythmischen doch gut phrasierten Tempo und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Alles ist bewundernswert!
So much great classical music to discover and listen to, so little time in life to hear them all.
Hermosa música que desconocía, salud desde las Islas Canarias
This is great stuff. I am glad to know that like most things, the most famous artists and works aren't always remembered just because nothing else was in the same level. They get remembered unfairly, kind of am emporers new clothes thing, where people say it is great so other people repeat them.
Not really, at least not with classical music. If you chose a random Sammartini symphony and a random Haydn symphony, most would easily tell which is Haydn and which is Sammartini and also note that the former was clearly a better composer.
In the way Western music history is taught, with Baroque at the beginning and Classic at the end of the eighteenth century, we neglect many great composers from the generations that lived through the middle of the century. When we first discover them, we might value them mainly on how they influenced Haydn and Mozart, or were influenced by Vivaldi and J.S.Bach, but in time will learn to appreciate them on their own merit. I believe that is starting to happen now.
Belíssimo!! Obrigada... ✨🎼✨🎼✨👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

According to Maynard Solomon, Mozart's 20th century biographer, Sammartini had a great influence on WA Mozart whose string quartets K. 155-60 reflect that fact. Those quartets were composed during Mozart's 3rd trip to Italy in late 1772, early 1773. Mozart wrote the quartets to appeal to a potential benefactor, Grand Duke Leopold of Tuscany.
Meraviglioso!!!!!
A feast for my well being thanks
Excelente elección de programa, muchas gracias!!!solo diré que leyendo los comentarios los escuchas se preguntan ¿Por qué?....bueno hay que leer un poquito mas sobre la historia de los compositores, no consumir lo pre -digerido, y alli estan todos los maravillosos maestros que por aqui escuchamos...Lulli, leoncavallo ,Hertel , sammartini y un largo etc...
These may not have all the intricacies of haydn or a mozart but they are very good and giovanni was before haydn and he likley influenced the symphony of haydn and mozart.it definitely sounds like the the transition between galant and classical and very much classical and i cant find much italian composers thst had this sound.but i may be wrong.but these are very nice symphonies on their own and very much worth listening to and can make your day much more relaxing and sweeter.samartini never bores.what a composer and its a shame he is overlooked.
16:30 Absolutely brilliant!
#BrilliantClassics could you please correct the track list? You list the composer's name for every track. We know who the composer is. What we don't know are the names of the pieces. Please list the name of the piece and movement tempo marking instead of the composer's name and tempo markings. Thanks!
On www.brilliantclassics.com/articles/s/sammartini-late-symphonies-vol-i/ you can find the spotify playlist with all tracks in this video and some more information on the recordings, this has a lot more detials. Hope this helps!
Bellissima! Josef Mysliveček (1737 - 1781) considered Sammartini to be "the father of Haydn's style"! Sammartini's middle period (1740-1758) is regarded as his most significant and pioneering, during which his compositions in the galant style of music foreshadow the Classical era to come.
Christoph Willibald Gluck was his student from 1737 to 1741. They respected him and corresponded with him: J.C. Bach, Mozart, Boccherini...
Super! Thanks👍
Where did you find that information from because i cant find it anywhere
corresponded?
COOL
00:43:02 Giovanni Battista Sammartini: Allegro spiritoso e brillante
Sammartini was a composer with a rather innovative style that preluded classicism.

💗🙏

😎
I seen brilliant classics on the internet about 6months ago and and i heard a few parts of a few symphonies and it seems like he had a good amount of symphonies though not as much as mozart or haydn
10:00 Presto
Been a big G.B. Sammartini fan since Nonesuch released a recording by Newell Jenkins and the Angelicum Orchestra of Milan (th-cam.com/video/aZTLOPTF-3I/w-d-xo.html) way back in the 1960s; only one of the symphs on that record (G Major JC 50) is a later work without continuo. I’m an old dog who prefers the fuzzy warmth of vinyl, and I’ve only bought a handful of classical CDs in this century, including these..
