Aram Khachaturian: Symphony No. 2 in E major "The Bell" (1943) [DDD]
Robert Schumann Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by / Orquesta Filarmónica Robert Schumann dirigida por Frank Beerman.
I. Andante maestoso (0:00)
II. Allegro risoluto (15:53)
III. Andante sostenuto (26:25)
IV. Andante mosso - Allegro (38:56)
It would be unfair to brand Aram Khachaturian (1903-1978) as a one-work composer, and that it is a miniature from his ballet Gayaneh. His works include several instrumental and chamber music, ballets, film music, symphonies and virtuoso concertos which are also quite popular. His Second Symphony of 1943 became gradually Khachaturian’s War Symphony and his “Requiem against all kinds of violence”. Its nickname “The Bell” comes from the tolling leitmotiv that dominates the work.
Sería injusto clasificar a Aram Jachaturián (1903-1978) como compositor de una sola obra y que ésta es apenas una miniatura de su ballet Gayane. Sus obras incluyen varias piezas instrumentales y de cámara, ballets, música para películas, sinfonías y conciertos virtuosos que también son populares. Su Segunda Sinfonía de 1934 se volvió gradualmente su Sinfonía de Guerra y su “Requiem contra toda forma de violencia”. Su apodo “La Campana” viene del motivo tintineante que domina la obra.

Thank you for posting, friend. Another elevating piece by Copland, and your choice of Hogue as the accompanying image was inspired.
That was cool.
Beautiful. Copland has always impressed me with his talent for capturing the 'wide open spaces' not only of the American continent, but of the human spirit. I find myself breathing heavily during these sequences as he conjures up the great freedoms of our world.
Beautiful recording, but if I’m not mistaken these preludes are Barber’s op 37, and op 36 is his Toccata Festiva for organ and orchestra, no?
This is my favorite Copland work. It never fails to make me smile!
Surely one of Copland's most heartfelt works. It never fails to impress. An evocation of an America that one was, but, sadly, no longer is.
What a genius Copland was to put a break in this piece at the 16 min mark so that a commercial could run. Most composers leave a little space at the start so we can see ads.

Mieczyslaw Weinberg was a Jewish Polish composer who emigrated to USSR.. He was greatly supported by D. Shostakovitch. Their style was however very different. Weinberg's lyricism is more conventional, and we do not find the desperate feeling of loneliness and absurdity which make the most noticeable Shostakovitch's compositions, in his symphonies and string quartets. Nevertheless, Weinberg's compositions have an originality of their own. .
Great musical composition. she has the whole spirit of personal freedom.
Fantastic music and number one composer

I feel heartened to see that this humanitarian tragedy finally got its own Threnody. This piece should have more views.
I think, İnce is one of pioneers of the new Turkish culture which is pressed traumatically between the east and west.
Nothing can exist this beautiful, meaningful, deep and soulful without God, without there being a God...
Good performance.
Such a wonderful and reinvigorating symphony! I just love it!
First time I have listened to this astonishing music.My God why oh why is his music not more widely played,scandalous.
Jedna z mála symfonií, která se vám neoposlouchá. Poprvé jsem ji slyšel na konci 90. let 20. století a stále mě baví. Tuto nahrávku považuji za vůbec nejzdařilejší.
I love the textures and harmonies here in the early going. Rich and mysterious.

69 secs of rigor and then float away on a river of clouds...
I like intense dramatic orchestral works. This one qualifies.
No credit for the art work. Who cares.
My dear friend, as I listened to this stunning wonderful music of divinity, I came across your comment, and it opened up a new vista for me, for which I thank you so much! I have come to this CZcams multiple times and thus seen "Road to Rhome" (1938) by Alexandre Hogue. And, indeed, the painting with the sign actually does seem to be a kind of ... SIGN. As you may know, Copland and his male lover wanted this Opera to be full of certain tensions, but that just never worked out, because the beauty and truth here is just too great and people want treat the music "straight", as a celebration of rural America - that tender land coaxed by love and hard work into offering the promise of living... But the painting actually offers further tension, as it is intended to illustrate the beginnings of the erosion that led to the Dust Bowl! It was one of a series actually given the name "Erosion". The title is a pun from the start as we know that all roads lead to R(h)ome, which is in Texas, as is Decatur, though both are close to the NM border. The road is apparently State Highway 114. Rhome honours Col. Byron Crandall Rhome, who brought Hereford cattle into that region. Decatur (TX) is one of a number across the USA named after the hero of the Revolution. Mr Hogue, who died aged 96 in 1994 was raised by his own mother to believe in "Mother Earth" - he took it so literally that he always tried to tread softly on the soil, making as little noise and disturbance as possible. This is kind of amazing as I do this too (at least when I am in a certain kind of mood which the Holy Spirit can inspire). In contrast, his dad was a Presbyterian Pastor who may have espoused the belief that human beings has the right to rule nature. On that basis it is quite interesting to note the CONTRASTING New Testament emphasis in which Jesus tells us that the Earth provides us with food (without us needing to worry about it) thanks be to God. While Jesus surely refers a lot to cultivation and farming and gardening, as well as fishing, the dominance over an exploitable Earth noticeable in the Old Testament is not writ large at all. When Hogue saw what was happening to the land, he wanted to condemn his fellow Texans, not praise them in any way. So the picture actually DOES match Copland's desire for tension, better than it matches any iddylic visions of ours. In the series he also includes a stark work called "The CRUCIFIED Land", which is again a great paradox as the music here is "The Tender Land"!! Another in the series is "Mother Earth laid bare", and we actually see her lying there exposed by erosion! Hogue believed workers should be on and in the land, finding jobs in that way (as in the "Promise of Living" song which is the core element of this work of Copland's). Hogue had no time for tractors (meaning machines that pull), and in fact learned from the culture of the Pueblo people that no metal should ever be brought to the land for fear of harming Mother Earth! Hogue's fears about exhausting the Earth put me in mind of the marvellous movie "Interstellar" in which Matthew M's character says something about the Earth becoming tired of humankind - that scene made my cry, in a movie that has the same effect. It was filmed in Alberta - a place that ought to still support the native grasslands that Hogue loved so much. Hogue believed his paintings HAD to continue in this primal way, and so he made great efforts to avoid having his style more sophisticated or more influenced by other art or artists! He presumably believed he had something pure to convey that could not be transformed in any way. Apparently, Alexandre Hogue did care (as we can read in somebody's academic thesis atcore.ac.uk/download/pdf/17213882.pdf) . And so do I. I hope you do too!
A bit Prokofiev, a bit Shostakovich, and wholly Rawsthorne.

If ever there was an all-encompassing American classical composer whose music has truly come to embody the American spirit, it would be Copland. Certainly not the first American composer to experiment with sounds divorced from the European canon, but the first of renown to create a cohesive, specifically American sound.
That's Aaron Copland ! His music helping man to see the world in a better and true light!
TBH, that's also the Holy Spirit, reaching out to the atheist composer ... whether he even realised it or not! I got the same treatment, DID realise it (probably because I had been broken and reduced to begging for mercy and cleansing), and was changed. I look back on my comments regarding this piece, whose beauty I could alwayse see - but then I noticed the poignance and melancholy because all things pass and change, including out on the American farmlands. But now I come back to the piece and (also) see the ecstatic joy of it, in it and through it.
Helsinki, La Habana and now this! A superb orchestral composition for the guitar by master Leo.
