      You know why? Just because 1/ concerts organizers aim first to fill up the concert halls! 2/ Because of lack of curiosity of a majority of attendees at concerts. With Beethoven, Mozart, Tchaikovsky you're sure to fill up your hall with Shostakovitch you wont. Recently in Paris we were fortunate to have a full cycle of all symphonies and concertos of this immense composers. I was able to catch first category seats the very day before the concert and make my choice among several seats ! The performers were no less than the Mariinsky orchestra conducted by Valery Gergiev; the soloists were among other Gauthier Capuçon who made a incredible performance of the Cello concerto N°1, also Vadim Repin, Denis Matsuev!

    • @jvdesuit1
      @jvdesuit1 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Ben Hall Ben I was referring to people who pretend knowing classical music. In Paris as soon as you program a work which is not a hit, concert halls will be half full! I remember a concert with the Vienna philharmonic where the first part of the concert was a work by Busoni for piano and orchestra (some variations on Norma's Bellini if I'm not mistaken) the 2000 seats of the Theater des Champs Elysées were half occupied. It's a lack of curiosity. There's a great channel on youtube by KuhlauDilfeng2 or4; check it out there are fantastic unknown or rarely performed works spanning from Baroque to contemporary musicians.

      Equally criminal Mozart and the three B's being 95% of all that's played on classical radio. The coffee and elbow pads version of playing only The Beatles and The Eagles if ever there were. If they played more flavorful composers like Shostakovich, concert halls and public radio would have more listeners and better funding: period. This music is not bland and that's its power. Who truly wants to hear Eine Kleine Nachtmusik for the 48,000th time? Enough! Play THIS!

    • @benpowell5007
      @benpowell5007 8 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      +Heather Ferreira WELL SAID! One work they should definitely play in a concert hall is Goreki's "Symphony of Sorrowful Songs", and underrated/overlooked composers such as C.P.E Bach and even Salieri (whose music is nowhere near as boring as one would think (and we have Amadeus to thank for that- even though it was well-made, the historical inaccuracies and American accents made me cringe). I'd love to see orchestras try and do this. I'm an avid concert goer, and all I see is Mozart, Beethoven, Bach (yuck!) and Handel. The most "unknown" work I've ever seen played in a concert is "Threnody to the victims of Hiroshima". Very powerful piece, but I could hear people muttering "That was not music" during the interval. People need to be more open-minded. The moonlight sonata is another example- if I were to play the third movement, a lot of people would probably ask "Who composed that piece?" Sorry for the rant, just agreeing with your opinion! :)

      You can check the sample tracks there. As I know, there is just a live - version here in TH-cam with Dudamel and the Berliner Philharmoniker, but I think there is no professional recording of his 12th symphony with the Berliner.

    @j.vonhettlingen7112 9 ปีที่แล้ว +89

    It's a challenge to listen to Shostakovich's "Symphony No. 12: The year 1917"!
    He wrote this piece only in 1961, 44 years after the Russian Revolution and 14 years before he died.
    Dedicated to the memory of Lenin, the music is loaded with energy, unleashed by the Revolution. Yet Shostakovich hadn't failed to pay tribute to the victims with funeral music, which also expressed the frustration and desperation of ordinary citizens after the Revolution.

    • @Altonahh10
      @Altonahh10 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Basically I don´t see Sh. as a political composer. He was a rather sensitive being and the reason why some parts of his compositions are so brusque and fast lies more in the fact that he felt hunted by the Stalin system and got under a lot of pressure by censorship and the question if and how he would survive a totalitarian system. His relief that Stalin was finally dead can be heard in his 10th symphony, probably one of the masterpieces of 20th century music.

    ..Αυτήν την εποχή δουλεύω τη Δωδέκατη Συμφωνία μου. Μερικοί από σας ίσως ξέρετε ότι το 1957 έγραψα την Ενδέκατη Συμφωνία μου με θέμα την πρώτη ρώσικη επανάσταση. Πριν ακόμα την τελειώσω, άρχισα να σκέφτομαι τη συνέχειά της, και έτσι συνέλαβα τη Δωδέκατη Συμφωνία μου, αφιερωμένη στη Μεγάλη Οχτωβριανή Σοσιαλιστική Επανάσταση. Έχω ήδη γράψει τα δυο από τα τέσσερα μέρη και σε δυο τρείς μήνες ελπίζω να είναι έτοιμο ολόκληρο το έργο.
    Μια και το πλάνο μου για τη συμφωνία είναι αρκετά διασαφηνισμένο, μου επιτρέπετε να πω δυο λόγια για το περιεχόμενο του έργου και για τις σκέψεις που με κατείχαν όσο το δούλευα.
    Να γράψει κανείς μια συμφωνία για την Οχτωβριανή Επανάσταση είναι, φυσικά, μεγάλη υπόθεση. Θα χρειαστεί να επιστρατεύσω όλη μου τη δύναμη και όλες μου τις δυνατότητες αν θέλω να ανταποκριθώ έστω και λίγο στο μέγεθος και τη σημασία του θέματος. Φυσικά, όταν γράφεις μία συμφωνία για την Οχτωβριανή Επανάσταση, η εικόνα που ξεχωρίζει είναι αυτή του μεγάλου ηγέτη της εργατικής τάξης, του Βλαντίμιρ Λένιν. Επομένως, η συμφωνία θα είναι αφιερωμένη στη Μεγάλη Οχτωβριανή Επανάσταση και στη μνήμη του Λένιν.
    Όπως είπα, η συμφωνία θάχει τέσσερα μέρη. Το πρώτο το αντιλαμβάνομαι σαν μια μουσική αφήγηση με θέμα την άφιξη του Λένιν στην Πετρούπολη τον Απρίλη του 1917 και τις συναντήσεις του με τον εργαζόμενο λαό της πόλης. Το δεύτερο θα περιγράφει τα ιστορικά γεγονότα της 7ης του Νοέμβρη. Το τρίτο θα μιλάει για τον Εμφύλιο Πόλεμο και το φινάλε για την τελική νίκη της Μεγάλης Οχτωβριανής Επανάστασης….
    Είναι δύσκολο να μιλάς για τα δικά σου έργα, όμως το θέμα της νέας συμφωνίας με συγκινεί ιδιαίτερα, και μου φαίνεται ότι αυτό το έργο θα είναι σπουδαίο ορόσημο στην εργογραφία μου. Του δίνω μεγάλη σημασία.
    Από πού αντλώ την έμπνευσή μου γι`αυτό το υπεύθυνο καθήκον;
    Παραβρέθηκα στα γεγονότα της επανάστασης, ήμουνα ανάμεσα στο πλήθος που άκουσε τον Λένιν να μιλάει μπροστά στο σταθμό της Φιλανδίας τη μέρα που έφτασε στην Πετρούπολη. Και παρόλο που τότε ήμουν πολύ νέος, αυτό χαράχτηκε για πάντα στη μνήμη μου. Και βέβαια, οι αναμνήσεις μου απ` αυτές τις αξέχαστες μέρες με βοηθούν στη δουλειά μου πάνω στη συμφωνία.9

    Really enjoying rehearsing this epic symphony with the Southampton Concert Orchestra for 10th June at Romsey Abbey. We're not as good as this lot, but I'm loving getting to know the piece so much better by playing it!

    I have always thought that the main problem with this symphony is that it follows the 11th, a work of staggering brilliance and overpowering drama. On its own terms, the 12th is a fine work (save perhaps for the overblown final moments), but it shares the same historical theme--a struggle against tyranny--as the 11th, which is simply a greater work.

      I think also that was a Party "demand", because after "1905" it was necessary to compose a work to "explain the Revolution's triumph". Live under Communism is well "explained" by the following symphony, the 13th.

    Sinfonía nº 12, Op. 112 "El año de 1917", En recuerdo a Vladímir Ilich Lenin. 1961 (Esta controvertida dedicatoria aún es estudiada por musicólogos y politólogos, pues no se sabe con certeza si fue impuesta o no al compositor por parte del ese entonces régimén soviético)

    Along with Symphony No 15, my two favourite of DSCH's symphonies. Whether or not one agrees with the historical dedication behind it, it is in my view a fabulous symphony. Of course, the composer himself didn't agree. He wrote: 'It is terrible....."

    Shostakovich is like if a “slave ship” from earlier movies met Star Wars. At any moment someone could be jumping overboard or engaging in a light saber battle.
