The only piece that can make the lso sound like a youth orchestra! Insanely hard piece!
I blame the upside down conductor for that.
Complimenting the composer whilst admitting the rocky truth. Masterful comment!
This is played way too fast. That way, obviously the piece will be fiendishly difficult. I believe the piece’s metronome mark to be WBMP.
@@AlbertoSegovia. naaaaaah. that's the tempo :-)))))
@@oscargill423 has Balakirev commented here recently???
Alfredo Casella's orchestration for Islamey is phenomenal, stellar, evocative, and an orchestral tour de force. Gianandrea Noseda should have recorded it for Chandos when he was doing Orchestral Works Series, along with Casella's orchestral transcription for J.S. Bach's Chaconne (from BWV 1004).
Моё любимое произведение в такой прекрасной оркестровке!
It would be lovely if Gianandrea Noseda and the LSO recorded Alfredo Casella's orchestrations for Balakirev's Islamey and J.S. Bach's Chaconne BWV1004 on the LSO Label. Casella's orchestration for Mily Balakirev's Islamey, is an orchestral tour de force - it will surely stretch the orchestra to the limit. There is astonishing volume per page, at least one page requires 30 staves, there is textural complexity, divisi strings, tutti passages that demand considerable instrumentation, but there are also passages full of colour and delicacy with subtle and fine instrumental soli emitting mesmerising melodic writing. On the other hand, Casella brought a lot of inventiveness and boldness to bear, when doing his orchestral transcription for J.S Bach's famous Chaconne from Violin Partita BWV 1004. He kept Bach's original violin, but simultaneously, he brought to the fore all the polyphonic and contrapuntal substratum that exists in latent form (in the original violin work).
Balakirev should be played more often!
it is. ON PIANO 🙂
brilliant orchestration!
Okay next, orchestra version of Gaspard de la Nuit please.
da italiano vorrei sottolineare il felice apporto di un giovanissimo Alfredo Casella come orchestratore,un compositore che solo ora sta per essere valutato come merita,soprattutto per merito di Noseda
I love the theme at 2:22, based on a Tatar love song.
Which Tatar love song?
@@lambo99khoker56 I have read that the theme in question is based on a love song from the Crimean Tatars, which was introduced to Balakirev by the Armenian actor K. N. de Lazari, a member of the Bolshoi Theatre. I also wish I knew which Tatar song. I'd love to hear it. I imagine many old Tatar songs have been lost in time.
4:30
A question for people in general - which orchestration do you like more, this or Lyapunov’s?
I like Lyapunov's arrangement better. It is more similar to the original piece but both arrangements are great!
Did balakiev ever write a orchestral version of this or was it done by somebody else
No, he never did. There has been two orchestral versions, one by Alfredo Casella and one by Sergei Lyapunov.
Yeh he made the piece for piano first and this orchestration is by Casella, really makes me happy to hear about Casella again, he is not often mentionned.
The piano version is considered by some for being one of the hardest piano pieces and ye it seems pretty difficult indeed.
amazing. asking in comments instead of 5 seconds googling :-)
I prefer the piano arrangement over orchestra. Listening to the piano audio without visual, you can imagine the intricacy, but seeing what the pianist is doing leaves a greater understanding of the technical difficulty of the piece.
@five381 I heard Alexander Maloveef playing it. Russian juices were racing through his veins. He survived, but I think the piano needed to be tuned afterwards. 🌷🌷🌷
lol what's a "down beat"?! Wonderful orchestration...but that conductor is beating upside down. Just...why? It even throws off the orchestra's timing, which takes talent to do that to arguably one of the best orchestras in the world. Where they keep finding these eccentric conductors always bewilders me.
I think there's this thing called rehearsals. That should be enough time to discuss Maestro Noseda's "down beat" with the orchestra. Above else, the orchestra already knows what they're doing.
In Ravel's pieces I usually prefer the piano version, but this is great too. Definitely worth hearing more often
This wasn't written by him. You're thinking of Gaspard de la Nuit.
어케했ㄴ노
i agree
The Barbican just sounds terrible-awful match for one of the best orchestras in the world.
what a horrible arrangement
naaaah. i don't agree
@@AndreyRubtsovRU agreeing and disagreeing is irrelevant
