Don't forget the classic 11 notes in a row elsewhere in the piece, which you can count super easily by repeating the 11 syllable long phrase "I-gor Stra-vin-sky is a son of a b****"

I was exposed to “The Rite of Spring” very early-I had a copy of “Fantasia” on VHS and watched it when I was in elementary school-so this music is second nature to me, but now that I think about it, the offbeat rhythms and nonstop dissonances must have drove the early 20th century music societies absolutely insane. Imagine never having heard this before and trying to sit comfortably in a theater seat.

@redblue200 2 жыл бұрын

If you don't know, there were literally riots in the streets of Paris following the premiere! What element of the music, specifically, sparked the riots may be up for contention, but it's clear that when people heard this piece, they were incredibly uncomfortable.

@fritzjackson4336 2 жыл бұрын

@@redblue200 there was no riot in the street. there was a kerfuffle in the theatre tho.

@fritzjackson4336 2 жыл бұрын

we all had fantasia. anyway this was absurdly popular when it came out, as was basically everything stravinsky did with the ballet russe. just cause some people caused a commotion doesn't mean that it wasn't revered by a majority of the audience. in fact much of the "riot" that people cite was basically just people who didn't like it being obstructive and creating fighting between audience members. there was even an old fashioned duel declared for the next day by 2 people on opposite sides of opinion. sure, saint-saens didn't like it, but for every guy that didn't like it, there was another two (like debussy and ravel) who staunchly disagreed.

@Snardbafulator 2 ай бұрын

You couldn't hear much of the music through the commotion, but the fracas had far more to do with Nijinsky's choreography which had the dancers in primitive costumes and their movements earth-directed and not gracefully pointing to the sky -- the antithesis of classical ballet.

I love this -- it brings back fond/terrifying memories of playing the second violin part in my uni orchestra, and constantly messing up the counting! I'm curious about what counting method works best for other people from 0:53 onwards. If I try to count crotchets, or "one and two and", against that off-beat wind/brass melody, I get very confused and lose my place. The only thing that works for me is counting quavers, i.e. "one two three four".

Keeping a steady count of ‘1, 2’ each measure proved effective for myself. It can get somewhat overstimulating to count the ‘ands’ of each beat, and honestly feels unnecessary for this passage.

Can't figure out what happens right at the transition to the "Young Girls" section, is there a beat displacement that tricks my ears and pulse earlier on, or like a 5/8 bar or something right before the section? If I try to keep the pulse through the transition, I always have to adjust in the new section. Something in the score, or something in the recording, or something wrong in my feel? But I love the concept, the work, and sharing, great sub plans and rhythm extension material for us in the field, very much appreciated, but I gotta know why I all of a sudden can't keep a steady beat, apparently.... ;)

@whatcommsmusic Жыл бұрын

Nope, just Stravinsky messing with my head. If I start back further rather than in the rests, the count remains the same through the transition. And the score shows it's all in my head too. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Zr6ph7qlnZi8gYE.html

I played trumpet in my high school band. I was technically quite good at the playing side of things, but terrible at the listening, and I never, ever figured out how to stick to a rhythm. Which, as a trumpet player (and probably an overly enthusiastic, ie loud, one) was really a problem... when I was off tempo, everyone heard it...
