  • Sibelius’s symphonies are something special!
    Here’s the fourth movement of Sibelius Symphony No. 2 which we performed in our 2021/22 season. Enjoy!
    For some listeners, it’s an elemental force: a mighty river of sound. For others, it’s the song of a nation awakening to freedom. But however you hear it, few sonic experiences are more invigorating than Sibelius’s Second Symphony, a musical journey that begins amidst the sounds of nature and ends in a surge of triumph.

    11:45. When the Major drops and low the brass hit. Nothing better in life.

    "You'll never know dear how much I love you, please don't take my sunshine away." The main melody heard mostly at the end is obvious inspiration for You Are My Sunshine.

    Great timpani roll at the end! He kept his head down while rolling to make sure his timpani mallets were evenly spaced.

    When I hear this I am 17 again and in my attic conducting my sister's Dansette with a knitting needle. My first LP of classical music bought upon a whim and I was solid gone. For the next year I played that record almost to death (Barbirolli & the Halle). My claim to fame is I joined the Merchant Navy, bought a little battery powered Philips record player and one day in the South Pacific, landed on a desert island and played this symphony. Rising sea levels have claimed Bikeman Island, so it will never be repeated.

    Music gives meaning to sound, from meaning to sound, is born emotion. The interpretation is moving, to the point that words are no longer enough. Symphony No. 2 in D major, Opus 43, Movement IV. Finale: Allegro moderato. This piece inspired by romantic period develops towards a triumphal conclusion intended to awaken in the listener an image everything at once inspiring and soothing. It is rejoicing that in this repertoire the music either so well represented by an orchestration possessing a great variety of tonalities at the service a also poetic imagination. The execution is splendid with the talented conductor Edward Gardner and its musicians. *Lucien*

    I have performed this symphony many times (Fl. 1). There is nothing technically challenging about the piece, but every conductor I've worked with has talked about the difficulty of the final climax. One said, "If you give too much too early, you give away the ending." Mahler has similar issues (though much more technically challenging); however, there are usually 20+ extra players to help. I think what makes this piece work is fantastic tuba playing, which is much more effective in a live performance. (Yes, a flute player is complimenting the tuba!)

    Although the Sibelius 5th and 7th are considered to be greater symphonies, the 2nd remains the most popular and the ending ranks up there among the top ten most epic finales in all of classical music!

    • @TheVaughan5
      @TheVaughan5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The 2nd is the most popular because it’s the most romantic in style. However it lacks the absolute perfection of the 7th. Agree about the 2nd’s finale, up there among the most impressive ever written.

    • @LucienMarine
      @LucienMarine ปีที่แล้ว +5

      In truth : The 2nd is the most beautiful and the most popular. Nos. 5 and 7 are of great instrumental richness without forgetting especially his symphonic poems « Finlandia » and « En Saga » which the latter is the most played and recorded in the world. This is that Sibelius for music lovers ! *Lucien*

    ah yes the timp roll that never ends at the end, when the conductor always wants more, but you have to hold a bit back for the crescendo in the last bar that they ALSO want....

    Nice performance though I prefer the quiet section much quieter. Just too loud throughout and a bit on the fast side too. Szell, Cleveland, Tokyo 1970 is the gold standard in my opinion.
