It`s so inspiring to watch so many talented musicians who have toiled many a year to get to that stage, literally :). Thanks e s much for the info. Most sincerely JF ( UK )
@naybobdenod8 жыл бұрын
I agree re the synchronised remark. Yet put the musicians in separate rooms and this interaction would not be possible. They literally have to be close and at hand for all of them to gel.This may seem a little far fetched but its a fact that has been proven. I will try my best to find the video for you to watch as its very interesting !!!!

I've always been asking what on Earth a conductor does in orchestra?! After listening to Bolero many times before conducted by Dudamel, Jansons, Mehta and so on I understood that this performance by Gergiev is the one that even Ravel would like himself... I can sleep relaxed now, as I understood the secret behind conductor's role!

I'm going to listen to & comment on every version of Bolero I can find. I can't seem to get enough of it. This is my third listening. This particular one is quite stirring, and I had only to hear a few minutes before I was completely in awe of M. Gergiev's utter mastery of his craft. A toothpick for a baton? A Titan fells a mighty forest with a mere eyelash!
@16Lizards8 жыл бұрын
Ravel was often critical about how his most famous piece was interpreted, but I think if he were alive today, he'd approve of this performance. Without a doubt, the best rendition I have heard of this magnificent piece of music. At least 4050 drum beats!

This song is an incredibly, beautiful masterpiece ❤

@Deliverygirl8 жыл бұрын
+Peter Klatzow I recall reading about him saying that wasn't too fond of it. "I have written a masterpiece, yet there is no music in it". Probably something to do with the lack of counterpoints, and somewhat flatness of the piece, that boils down to a glorified (and oh so pleasant too) crescendo.
