Youtubeko deskribapena:
London Philharmonic Choir & Orchestra conducted by Vladimir Jurowski I - Poco largamente ma allegro - Allegro feroce: 0:00 II - Presto tenebroso: 21:19 III - Andante apassionato - Andante sostenuto con tenerezza e gran espressione: 28:46 IV - Allegro molto vivace - "O, quid vidimus" Andante molto espressivo: 44:30 Myaskovsky's sixth symphony was written between 1921 and 1923, premiered in Moscow in 1924 with a great success. Considering it as one of the great Russian symphonies. The work is written for a large orchestra, including the participation of an optional choir in the last movement. It is the most extensive symphony of the whole cycle of Myaskovsky. The first movement, in sonata form, begins with an emphatic introduction of six chords, which leads us to a first theme of robust and chromatic nature. After a complex and long development, the second theme appears, quieter as a song, announced by the English horn and the violin. It continues with an extensive and tumultuous development during which the theme is repeated in different ways, but always expressing a feeling of deep pain. An abbreviated recapitulation begins by repeating the introductory chords. The second theme is played by the trumpet. The movement ends in a climate impregnated with sadness. The second movement presents a motif developed by the bassoon, accompanied by a restless orchestra. The motif advances repetitively until it is interrupted by a flute solo, of an impressionist pastoral style that presents a strong contrast. The orchestra begins to shake until the initial motif of the bassoon reappears. It ends with a determinant coda. The third movement begins with a dark melody played by the strings. Then take the second theme of the first movement in a way with more Russian flavor. A new theme also of Russian character is presented by the clarinet. The strings leads the theme to its lowest registers, then rises passionately. In the last part, the music returns to the beginning with his nostalgic theme. In the coda music dissolves in silence. The last movement begins with a cheerful introduction of the English horn supported by the orchestra. Then two French revolutionary songs are used by the orchestra: La carmagnole and Ça ira, presenting a victorious celebration of the Revolution. But this revolutionary joy is interrupted by the notes of the Dies Irae of the Latin Mass of Requiem in its lower register. A burst of the orchestra leads us to a new theme, appearing a traditional Russian song in the form of an anthem, which in its repetition increases its solemnity. It belongs to an old religious song called "When the soul leaves the body." The orchestra begins a series of variations interrupted twice by the two hymns of the French Revolution. The introduction of the Dies Irae is repeated, in contrast to the first motive, which leads us to a climax, interrupted by the entrance of the choir vocalizing in the form of cries of pain. Then they begin to sing the Latin text O
