@@KonStafylides I love Webern. He really was on top of his pointilistic serial banger game. Whenever I hear his 5 bagatelles dropped in the club I lose my shit.
I am delighted anyone undertakes a performance of Edgar's wonderful landmark work! Bravo for you ! I have studied and been an admirer or Edgar since 1969! Thank you for keeping Varese alive and in the halls.
This is beautiful. I don't believe that I'm able to comprehend entirely what's going on. But the sheer sounds of the instruments as they go along in the composition are very stimulating. I would love to hear that in a concert hall.
@@BethanyLowe8773 It depends what you mean by “understand”. I think DerUfen means he doesn’t see how the piece is structured. It also depends what you mean by “sound”. A melody by Puccini is just a series of sounds (at least as performed), but the timbre of the voice singing and the timbre of the orchestral instruments accompanying are secondary to the pattern of the sequence of pitches (in other words, to the structure of the melody). You don’t have to be able to articulate analytically that structure, but if you can’t apprehend it synthetically, you”ve missed the melody entirely.
Mixing? Real composers don’t depend on mixes to patch holes in their scoring. An important part of composing is writing in such a way as to achieve a proper balance-without the artificial use of mixing boards.
It's awesome listening to all the different timbres of the percussion instruments, and the variety of sound that can be coaxed from each instrument depending on how it is played. Great audio quality too :)
I haven't heard this piece since I was in college. Great job here. The different timbres, articulation, and style are perfect. One might think that a percussion piece would be all loud - boom bang boom- but not this one. Superb camera work too.
Zappa had this record and would put chalk marks on the vinyl where the loud parts came in to cut to them when trying to impress his friends with this music. The average teen in the 50s was listening to Elvis and Pat Boone...
At the final months of his life, the last work Frank did was producing an album of Varèse performed by the Ensemble Modern, with whom he had worked with for The Yellow Shark. The session even saw Nicolas Slonimsky, the conductor of the premiere performance of Ionisation and a friend of Frank, take up the baton and conduct the piece. That album has yet to be released.
Totally blown away! When i first heard the audio of this, I had my fair share of doubts if anyone would be able to pull this off live. You guys did a splendid job!
I have a theory about why the teenage Zappa loved this so much. Listen to it. The snare drum has a definite motif. Zappa’s first instrument was marching band drum. He was taught the rudiments, and the recorded evidence shows that he wasn’t a bad drummer. The snare drum is basically the lead instrument in this piece, with the sirens an important supporting instrument. Zappa grew up with a father who worked as a contractor for the Department of Defense. He spent the earliest years of his life growing up next door to Edgewood Arsenal in the Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Maryland. He must have got used to the sound of sirens; they used to be used all the time. I had friends as a kid who lived in Cork city in Ireland, and sirens were used every morning to alert dock workers that it was time to clock in. You could hear them all over the city. They must have been used even more frequently in US military installations, if only for emergency drill purposes. The teenage Zappa hears a piece of modern music that incorporates snare drum, his own instrument, and sirens, the sound he most didn't want to hear. No wonder he wanted to become a composer.
Zappa was a schild of the cold war thearetenings in the 50/60ties and thus, growing up in a military zone used to the alarms of danger. Read his own whritings in the Great Frank Zappa book or in 'the negatieve dialect of poodle playing'. My english is not so good but I do understand where he got his musical conuntation . Overall: Zappa learnt me so much about art . Look further than what society is trying to get you focussed on. Edgar Varesse, stockhausen, Nam June Paike and Zappa and all those fantastic minds have shown me another way of thinking listening being. The modern day composer refuses to die.
This reminds me of my alma mater UCSD.....we'd have these strange concerts going on constantly. Varese was best man when Nicolas Slonimsky was married in the 30s....great bio fr latter: Perfect Pitch. Kind regards Dgunde, viola, piano, etc.....
To me, it seems to be about aerial bombing. It could be considered as an audio complement to 'Guernica'. Building up to it - banging the drums of war, air-raid sirens, the deafening explosions, sirens becoming wails of despair, then just an eerie silence. But it's open to virtually limitless interpretations.
@Jack Clare don't be such an absolutist, there is no rule on how you 'should' listen to music. Often the composer may intend the music to conjure images. Music is rarely entirely abstract. Plenty of stuff in music can be explained and discussed, but you may be uncomfortable with the fact that you will rarely reach a definite conclusion, as to receive a clear answer you must first ask a clear question!
There's pretty strong evidence that the composer didn't have any real world imagery for this. He was a descendent of the futurists, who believes heavily in breaking from pitch as the dominant tool of music. The sirens were selected because that have the smoothest glissando, not for any cheesy programmatic purpose.
@@EtcEtcAndEtc 2 years later and I feel the need to add on to what I feel the original commenter was referencing. Could you describe a what something tastes like? Yes, but you will never convey the entirety of what it means to experience that sense in words. Words are approximations of experiences of the senses, and sometimes it's best to just experience something as it is without putting barriers in the way of that experience. But it's also fun to put words to these experiences we have, and we do, and that's ok. I'm with you, absolutists are always no fun. :)
Ensemble Intercontemporain has always played the bizarre pieces they choose in a wonderful way, but THIS performance is easily one of my favorite recordings in the world. the conductor is very good, keeping pace with the strange meter, her movements large enough to be noted by the performers without seeming gratuitous or self-important. Fantastic performance, I watch it every couple months and am moved and impressed each time. Thank you for this performance!
This really is an astounding recording, from a performance point of view as well as a technical point of view. Thanks to the engineer(s) that recorded this. I don't believe there is an engineering credit listed in this video unfortunately.
Susanna Mälkki has brought me here. I like her stile and her clothes and her way of leading this group. And I like the drummers, the percussion people. But I have to confess, I have it a little bit hard about that electric machine that now and then disturbes this concert. But Edgar wanted it this way . Brecht also wanted us not getting too envolved, to stop and think: "Wait, this is only a performance!"
Le documentaire passé récemment sur Arte m'a fait découvrir la personnalité hors-norme de Franck Zappa : Un gars à la fois lucide, libre et créatif. Rafraichissant par les temps qui courent... C'est en quelque sorte sur ses "conseils" que je découvre ce morceau de Varèse (et c'est balèze).
You know I've been a musician for over 50 years and I've done a lot of experimental music ambient music electronic music I love experimenting but I've listened to this and others and it doesn't make me cry. Mussorgsky makes me cry.

de onde voce é? no brasil raramente se escuta musica contemporanea. sempre param em stravinsky. o augusto de campos diz que estamos há 100 anos atrasado na musica!!!!!!
uma pergunta retórica em tempos de patrulha politicamente correta: seria machismo dizer que é sempre um prazer assistir música clássica contemporânea e mulheres bonitas numa mesma sala de concerto? ok, podem jogar as bombas... rsrs
Okay, this is the tightest and most civilized performance of this work I've seen on TH-cam, capturing far more of the spirit and accurate notes than the Boulez. Kudos to Ms. Mälkki. I'd love to work with you.
"According to Varese, in order for the projection to yield a highly complex form, in other words, a cosmic distribution, what is necessary is a simple figure in motion and a plane that is itself mobile; otherwise, you get sound effects" Deleuze, Guattari- A Thousand Plateaus p.344
Personally, I'd rather listen to Varese being beaten with a cowbell for 7 mins and 27 seconds. Better him than me. Too bad Edgard didn't listen to his father and become an engineer.
let's not forget that this work is dedicated to Nicolas Slonimski, who gave it its 1st performance in 1933 at Carnegie Hall & first recording on Columbia in 1934 (& that Slonimski guested on keyboards with Zappa when he was 83!)
Give me Varèse any day! I think, he was not only way ahead of his time but will still be contemporary in the 23rd Century.... (if humanity makes it that far 🤔).
If one thinks of this as "Music," there may well never be a 23rd Century. Ingram Marshall composed a work having to do with the slamming of the prison doors in Alcatraz. This work I found very haunting and full of disjointed memories that didn't really want to be remembered. For me, the best part of Ionization was the few seconds after I realized it had ended. (What is a joke without a punch line? A Zen Koan.).
I had recognised Edgard Varese as an influence on Frank Zappa. This made me interested in trying to find a piece of his work to listen to. After repeating the name many times, I gave up on Alexa.

Ie all the instruments can be heard in a proper fashion, as the composer intended.
