I just love the Firebird, and the music of Stravinsky. To me the ending of this piece has to be the most powerful music ever composed in the history of classical music. Thank you so much for uploading this. The conductor and orchestra can be very proud of this outstanding performance. I just know Stravinsky would have been very proud. All I can say is, I enjoyed it immensely. Love this channel.
Esecuzione impeccabile, meravigliosa, un autentico spettacolo per le orecchie ma anche per gli occhi. Suono dell'orchestra straordinario, musicisti di altissimo livello. Direzione stratosferica, complimenti! Una gioia ascoltare e anche guardare i movimenti, il gesto elegantissimo, espressivo, chiarissimo, efficace. Esecuzione caratterizzata da una chiarezza nelle varie parti unita ad una scelta dei tempi e dell'agogica assolutamente di riferimento. Non voglio togliere meriti ad altre esecuzioni eccellenti presenti su TH-cam, ovviamente, ma questa è di livello stratosferico. Maestria, tecnica, eccellenza musicale ma anche tanta, tantissima capacità di emozionare e di coinvolgere il pubblico. Complimenti ancora!!!
I am an admirer of Susanna Mälkki and also of this orchestra, and this rendition is a Wonder, one of the best interpretations I ever heard. Warm thanks!
She reminds me very much of Marin Alsop - although Mälkki is younger (and taller, I think). There's a facial resemblance, but more significantly, her conducting style is virtually identical (although, of course, I have no idea of their respective approaches to rehearsal).
Maravillosa interpretación... Bravo Susana Mälki. Liebe Grüße aus Argentina immer. Ich wünsche nur alles gute und zu viel Musik für euch. Walter Jonathan Ale.
This piece hac brought me to joyful tears many times in my life, and this wonderful performance certainly did so here. Now I just need another box of tissues for my desk ...
ピュアで透明度の高さを誇る清澄な音質が心地よい。 またいっぽうで、色彩感にあふれた「豊麗なるサウンド」がとても美しい。 スザンナ=マルッキが指揮するこの「組曲」は、どこを取っても極上 至上の「火の鳥」ではないかと思う。 急がず力まず誇張せず、終始一貫した「自然体の演奏表現」が誠に素晴らしい。 「火の鳥」を聴いている本人も、期せずして「燃え上がってしまった」ようだ。 スザンナ=マルッキさんと、hr交響楽団の皆様に「心から御礼申し上げます。」 光明こと中井章弘 Pure, transparent and refreshing sound. On the other hand, the rich and colorful sound is very beautiful. This suite, conducted by Susanna Malkki is a superb Firebird in every way. The natural performance expression that is consistent and consistent from beginning to end, without rushing or exaggerating, is truly wonderful.
Thank you so so much! 中井章弘:Akihiro Nakai from Japan.
Depuis Lausanne, je suis depuis longtemps les retransmissions de cet orchestre magnifique! Ici, il s’est surpassé! Quelle superbe interprétation! Merci!
I have thought about Fire Bird compared to Rite of Spring. When played the first time Fire Bird was a success, but Rite of Spring was a complete scandal. Still, with its more modest expressions, Fire Bird is like a preparation for Rite of Spring. I like them both. And I find this version of Fire Bird just exquisite!
Created on June 25, 1910 at the Paris Opera, The Firebird preserves the memory of one of the greatest triumphs of the Ballets Russes. The Firebird is inspired by several Russian tales of which it retains the marvelous character and, for a Western audience, strongly exotic. Here is the argument: the valiant Ivan Tsarevich succeeds in seizing the Firebird and releases it in exchange for a gold talisman. Arrived in front of the enchanted domain of Kastchei which holds thirteen princesses prisoner, he risks being transformed into stone by the magician. The Bird then comes to his aid and reveals where the egg containing Kastchei's soul is hidden. Ivan steals it and breaks it then, while the Bird disappears in all its splendor, we must finally find Tsarevna, the most beautiful of princesses who makes his heart beat. On this libretto that he had edited, Michel Fokine created a notably inventive choreography. In Stravinsky's music we recognize the very strong influence from his teacher Rimsky-Korsakov as well as certain kinships with Glinka or again Scriabin. But this avant-garde young composer already manifests himself in the oppositions of timbres, the shimmer of the instrumentation. Stravinsky chooses to differentiate the elements of the action. The human element is represented by diatonic themes, while the magical element is associated with chromatic arabesques of an oriental character. From this partition, Stravinsky derived three orchestral suites. The innate virtuosity of Igor Stravinsky reveals already his poetic genius. *Lucien*

The Firebird was one of the pieces I loved most in youth orchestra, and this is the definitive performance to my mind. There are so many highlights here, but my favorite ones are the astounding rhythmic clarity in the Infernal Dance, Theo Plath's beautiful bassoon solo and the magnificent ending (the cymbals at 21:10 are simply breathtaking). All I can say is thank you for all the incredible performances that you share with us, I'm looking forward to finally hearing you live this year.
Ces excellents musiciens révèlent magnifiquement la force, le feu, la finesse de cette œuvre. C'est une très belle interprétation dirigée avec superbe par Susanna Mälkki. Bravo et merci.
Cette chaîne du HRSO est décidément une veritable mine : non seulement l'orchestre est formidable, mais le son et l'image le sont tout autant. Quant aux pépites proposées, elles abondent. En temoigne une fois de plus le programme de ce soir.
Though "The Firebird" is often uncharitably categorised as the young and brilliant Stravinsky being "more Rimsky than Rimsky himself", there are pieces where you hear the fully organising, and dazzlingly original, and orchestrally highly innovative voice of the same musician who, within a few years, had written Petruska and the Rite of Spring. The "Round Dance of the Princes", and the "Infernal Dance Of King Kashchei" are the best of Stravinsky's always titanic genius. The first because it conveys Stravinsky's uniquely synthetic Paris-St Petersburg blending of the sacred and the unrestrainedly sensuous and erotic. The second because it demonstrates a blindingly brilliant command of rhythm and orchestral timbres that seems to run all the way from Tchaikovsky, to Dvorak, to Rimsky and into the modernism of Bartok, Hindemith and Honegger. That is arguably the truest touchstone of front-rank genius. Psyche-expanding originality, which is simultaneously being expounded by limitlessly commanding and infallible technique. As if the artist was feeding upon and digesting everything already known, and saying something completely original at the same time. Only by having direct access to our transcendental and womanly collective consciousness, with its inconceivably rich psychical and elaborative and sensuous and frankly erotic resources - only then is this possible. Love andrea
Music should bestow greatness and cleanse the human’s soul and infuses love, beauty and glory to soul. The contents and verse of the music should be a creator of pure love, greatness, lightness and depth and not corruption, meanness and absurdity. This is true music. 💛💕
Tiefempfundene Aufführung dieser perfekt komponierten Suite mit milden Tönen aller Streicher, farbenreichen Tönen aller Holzbläser und majestätischen Tönen der Blechbläser und des Schlagwerks. Die intelligente und finnische Dirigentin leitet das erfahrene hr-Sinfonieorchester im gut phrasierten Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Alles ist perfekt!
Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführung dieser ein bisschen expressionistischen und exotisch komponiierten Suite mit farbenreichen doch perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller instrumente. Die intelligente und talentierte Dirigentin leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Wahrlich hörenswert!

It was in Sibelius second symphony I discovered Susanna Mälkki. To me she has all the authority and the precision that is needed.

Yes, the cymbal-smash at 21:10 is fabulous. The bass drum punches it out too, right at the same time. Just wonderful ... Stravinsky's creative genius!
