Such a great example of polytonality! He moves seemlessly between keys, but does it in only one hand, and then you get those super satisfying cadences when everything comes back home.

It is fascinating that Milhaud's polytonality soon sounds perfectly natural. One becomes used to it and finds it's logical and quite beautiful. At first I am sure he shocked a lot of listeners, but he has gone on to become a much beloved composer. This suite is simply wonderful. Each piece is named after a neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro. Milhaud visited Brazil with his ears, and his spirit, open and joyfully drinking in the sounds and the spirit of the people.

I love this entire collection - it seemingly becomes much more profound as time passes by, as very much of current pop music builds on the habanera rhythm, which is almost present in each movement. I truly hope this collection will be studied in the future on level with analysis of Bach's pieces.

Some of these pieces are certainly habanera-like, though of course they are declaredly faux-Carioca rather than faux-Havana-esque. They are creative and sweet, but to put them on a par with Bach....

wonderful music, i love it. I met a Brazilian musicians who stated that Brazilian hate Milhaud. He accuses him as thief of the compostions of Ernesto Nazareth Tangos Brasileiros. Milhaud was more than inspiered by his, who played in the cinema Odeon. Milhaud should also buy the scores of these Tangos in a music store. He didn't mentioned his sorce.

The thin line between legitimate use of world music ideas and appropriation of genres. Yet classical artists always borrowed, if not stole, ideas from one another.

@walkercatenaccio Жыл бұрын

That particular Brazilian musician may have overstated the case. Nazareth's works are lovely, but they work within a traditional single tonality, like those of Scott Joplin, with whom he has often been compared. Milhaud is coming out of the late/last strain of Romanticism, say, from Richard Strauss on, which takes folk and foreign music and gussies it up with polytonality. Underneath, of course, all the Europeans are trying to escape from the limited rhythmic and expressive palette of Classical "common practice". All good.

Brubeck studied with Milhaud briefly and named one of his sons Darius. Now and then I hear a little DM melancholy in an upbeat Brubeck performance. I don't think the good feelings were mutual, however. In DM's memoir "My Beautiful Life" he only mentions that one of Dave Brubeck's brothers -- also a musician -- was an employee of his for a while. Dave Brubeck is conspicuously absent from the memoir
