i first heard this 55 years ago at 6 years old on a portable record player provided by my Aunt on the carpet! i feel the key transposition from 8:32 to 8:43 is one of the most beautiful in music!
Views should be 23 likes and 0 dislikes for this version. I can't believe that there's somebody out there who does like this. Whoever it is, I'm very disappointed in that person Thanks for posting this guys.
THE BEST Version by Far! All the Musical Colors Come out as they were written for! These other symphony versions almost sound like a different piece!
Ormandy does a great job with this! This is probably the Philadelphia Orchestra, which he built according to his preferences. Top musicians, recording tech, all make a difference.
Allen J. Friedman Artist One of the greatest orchestras of my lifetime, easily.
It's beautiful. The Romance movement is my favorite. Ormandy also does a fine interpretation of Ravel's Tomb de Couperin
I agree with you there, this one has "sound colours and textures" that seem to be missing from other recordings.
Definitely the best version of this piece out of all of them. I think this type of music was one of Ormandy's specialties as well. He did do a lot of Russian music performances. I remember that. Think that when he ate salad, he used Russian Dressing on it? Thanks for posting this guys.
1. Kijé's Birth

This is great, the closest to the original film soundtrack.
What must be remembered is this was originally done as a film soundtrack, which Prokofiev then made into this "suite", doing us all the great favour of arranging and notating his marvelous soundtrack, so it could enter the repertoire.
Prokofiev was determined to keep the best of the original soundtrack music-- even improving on it-- so the suite itself would effectively tell this humourous, lovely story. Every film and TV producer since then has copied some element of Prokofiev.
I was getting into classical composers, but only had gotten Tchaikovsky, and Rimsky-Korsakov and the Mighty Five (Moussorgsky especially).
Then I heard the Troika in Woody Allen's "Love and Death" (as traveling music..) and had to hear more: Prokofiev and Shostakovitch, and others like Glasinov were great, indeed.
Unsure of date of this recording: the film is from 1934. Eugene Ormandy, along with Neville Mariner, without peer! I'll listen to them when they conduct, above all others.
wonderful
Awesome. Listen to the great bass drum.
Prokofiev loved a bit of bass drum. He used it a lot in his music.
Correction on that last comment. Whoever does not like this, I'm very disappointed in that person.
Reminds me of Copland for some reason.
Impresionante!!!! para mi gusto superior a Claudio Abbado-Chicago o Tilson Thomas-Pittsburgh! Unsurpassable!!!!!!
I may mistaken, but did he not do a version of Janos or Kije with a baritone singer? I'd love to find a recording of it.
I should have known Mr. Ormandy in this recording directs the 2nd-best performance of «LIEUTENANT KIZHÉ», 2nd only to the original film soundtrack. Find that here:
