I can't believe how this composer takes so unnoticed, I find his pieces just glorious.

I love Richard Flury! Very great composer. Saw his name and I clicked.

Always a pleasure listening to a piece rich in harmony from a composer I've never heard of. Challenging but wonderful music.

This composer does not make it to the English Wikipedia, apart from a passing mention as a composer of violin pieces. He does get a mention in the German, French, Japanese and Catalan versions. Volunteers anybody?

Second movement is pure poetry.

How can one be this underrated? Pity...

What a wonderful symphony, I found it beautiful and brilliant; thank you for sharing!!!

Merci de partager ces belles œuvres et de nous permettre de les découvrir...😃

thank you very much for this wonderful Sinfonie. Richard Flury lived in the same town I do. But I never heard a Sinfonie from him before 😀! This channel is great to explore unknown sinfonies. THANK YOU

I found it a pretty good listen.

Never heard of this composer, but this is good, Spielbergian fun! I particularly like the cyclical, almost narrative elements to the piece ... Beautiful fantasy themes ... I feel like I should be reading Maeterlinck.

wonderful music !!! great composer !!! thank you

Great music. Thanks for sharing.

¡Bellísimo, magnífico y sublime!

Mi sorprende sentire questa bellissima sinfonia,da un compositore svizzero praticamente sconosciuto. La composizione ,nel complesso,e' ancora tardo romantica e quindi un po' conservatrice,cosa che a me piace molto. Veramente una bella scoperta. Grazie a Kuhlau e YT !

Impresionante y grandiosa Sinfonía.Absolutamente .maravillosa.¡¡¡

Beautiful

I love to discover these little know late romantic symphonies

Lovely andante!

Glorious music.

Puzzling...Being another case of a marked transition period (last 4 years of 19th Century - more than half of the XXth Century), Flury did not submit to certain "new styles or sources" such as Strawinsky, Hindemith or even Bartok. We may identify here and there Sibelius, Prokofieff, Grieg even a last waves of Romanticism..., quite interesting. Well, as Herzfeld used to say, "we can never forget that geographic environment is a basic labelling of classic music composition", and Switzerland is a very special "self encircled" magical kingdom. Maybe Flury sent us a good postcard of being Swiss. If so, schüss !

Movement 3 is my favorite music of Flury.

Very good...beautiful...

Wonderful! Work! and Performance!

Gli svizzeri sono stati dei discreti musicisti.Questa sinfonia ne è un esempio.Anche se scritta nel 1923 , è nostalgicamente post romantica (e tra questi non ci fu Rachmaninov di tutti ?). La trovo un ottimo esempio di conservatorismo che giova alla cultura musicale. Ottima esecuzione e ottimo caricamento.

Loved this Symphony: the post-tonal, late-Romantic language; the grand, fanfare-like, brassy gestures; the quiet, pastoral "vistas" (e.g. 7:54 - ); and the lush, colorful orchestration (e.g. scherzo) !!! Flury studied with E. Kurth (known theorist) and J. Marx, great composer of lush, colorful, orchestral music (toccataclassics.com/product/richard-flury-the-life-and-music-of-a-swiss-romantic/).

Very nice, very nice indeed.

modern masterpiece with a solid composition

Merci pour ce beau partage . Richard Flury, né le 26 mars 1896 à Biberist et mort dans le même village le 23 décembre 1967, est un chef d'orchestre et compositeur suisse.fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Flury

Woooooooooowwww

It's a bit strange that in 1923 were audio recordings and instead of that, Richard only made a few musical notes. But still, great job and thanks for sharing though.

Very nice symphony, that I didn't know! The third movement is very near from Mahler's style.

Wikipedia has an article on this composer, but only in German, not English

Un ringraziamento a Dilfeng2 per il caricamento di questo bellissimo post.

Great music. Didn't see the CD on Amazon, I presume it's unavailable...

What's the art backdrop?

Reminds me of Scriabin's first symphony mixed a bit with a bit of Brucknerian orchestration. My only issue is with the recording: a lot of the more obscure composers tend to get interpreted very conservatively. The brass, for example, will tone down their bombardment when the repertoire shifts from Mahler/ Bruckner/ Prokofiev to one of their more obscure contemporaries. The result is that you get rather cold, monotonous interpretations because the precedent of what Flury should sound like hasn't been established. IDK the recording just feels a bit flat and I feel like obscurities like this would benefit from a bit of flamboyance on the orchestra's part.

Onion knight castle !

The tempo of the finale is simply Allegro.

Does anybody know about a recording of this symphony?

Sorry, where is biberist..?

Who painted this?

A very northern melody.

Parece musica de alguna pelicula de aventuras apoteosica de Hollywood... Lástima la calidad de la grabacion - tipo disco de vinilo y casi radio - no permite disfrutar toda su grandeza. Sin embargo da para entender la calidad del autor.

Brighton Pavilion on steroids 😊

3:56 sounds like a song from the 60's. The Monkeys maybe? any help?

I enjoyed this, but it felt more like a film score.

Sounds like something from a movie soundtrack

Sounds to me like a nice blending of Bruckner, Strauss and Mahler. Nothing greatly profound, but good listening.

Un peu redondant et convenu mais pas désagréable pour autant. On a entendu pire dans un univers musical souvent lénifiant, répétitif et martelé, filtré jusqu’à la névrose par des radios de chapelle !

opnieuw een onbekend pareltje; helaas zal het establshment, die menen te weten wat mooi of leliijk is, hier nooit naar luisteren
