Johan Sibelius PLAYLIST (reference recordings): czcams.com/video/C_18IKw9KFc/video.html
The first time I heard the 5th symphony, I was driving, and I had half a mind to pull into a parking lot just to make sure I listened to it and didn't let its name slip by me.
I have a fond memory of Paavo Berglund conducting a performance of a Sibelius symphony, in Bristol, UK, in my youth. I think it was the 5th. One does not forget such an occasion.
During a career spanning fifty years, Paavo Berglund (1929-2012), one of the very few left-handed conductors to have refused the diktat that all conductors must lead with the baton in their right hand, devoted himself tirelessly to popularising the greatest composer of his native land, Jean Sibelius. And although he excelled in many other repertoires, it was around the Finn that he ensured his posterity, with no less than three complete symphonies. The second, which interests us today, is in a way the point of balance, the happy medium between the raspy energy of the early works and the late tendency towards abstraction.

No more mass effects, titanic crescendi and telluric climaxes, in favour of a fine and luminous Scandinavian line. His mineral sounds are the very essence of Sibelius.
Just happened to me on the finale. This period of music (Mahler, Wagner, Sibelius) gives me existential feelings. Stepping beyond my life and seeing it. Also Sibelius makes me think of nature
@@88tongued Ditto. Makes me seriously consider whether certain periods have a certain existential flavour to them. Listening to a Beethoven string quartet was struck by it's similar feel to Shubert's string quintet from 1828. Turns out Beethovens was 1827. Plus minus a few years. But regarding Sibelius and nature I believe he adored wandering alone in nature and was deeply inspired thereby.
What a lovely thread. Nice to know there are nice, supportive comments on the internet. I agree with everything that's been said. I'll have to listen more to the 2nd. It certainly is a lovely piece with a lingering melody. So far, it's the 5th that gets me emotional.
Wunderschöne Interpretation dieser sieben nordischen und fein oder perfekt komponierten Sinfonien mit brillanten Tönen aller Blechbläser, milden Tönen aller Holzbläser und seidigen Tönen aller Streicher. Der unvergleichliche Dirigent leitet das perfkekt trainierte Orchester in verschiedenen Tempi und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Alles ist wundervoll!
The last few months I've been immersed in Sibelius symphonies. I am mesmerized. There are many fine videos with excellent orchestras and conductors. I've also watched videos about Sibelius with conductors sharing their experience coming to the music and then finding access. Simon Rattle refers to Paavo Berglund as the person who showed him the way. I decided to go to the source and listen to this complete collection, one of three cycles that Berglund led. Who better to listen to than the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra? Thank you so much for sharing such high quality files.... 1080 p. These are brilliant... a perfect backdrop to a day.
If you like Sibelius, check out his Nordic brother, Danish composer Carl Nielsen….his symphonies are here on CZcams as well. Great turn of the century music!
That fourth symphony is so dark yet so intriguing. I am no expert on music theory but it never seems to resolve itself. It must be one of the most original of all symphonies, as is the seventh.
Yes! You've nailed it! Well done... You claim to be no expert on music theory, but you've nailed it. Much like Wagner's Prelude und Liebestod from Tristan und Isolde, it never truly resolves.
Cuando iba a los conciertos de La Orquesta Sinfónica de Colombia, en el teatro Colón de Bogotá notaba la ausencia en las presentaciones de los viernes de las sinfonías de J Sibelius. . Gracias a CZcams por ofrecernos la oportunidad de escuchar el ciclo sinfónico de el gran Sibelius por una brillante Orquesta.
I call this the "Urtext Edition" of Sibelius. Exact. I never appreciated the chattering dialogue between the woodwinds at the end of the 2nd mvmt of the 6th until I heard this. Another must have set for Sibelius.
Thank you. #1 had such an emotional impact that the others are only "revealing" themselves years later. It seems #2 has a similar effect on those who heard it first. #3 reminds me of a brisk walk in the woods. Beautiful versions of all. Berglund and Bernstein seem to be the go-to conductors of Sibelius.
A number of posters have pointed out Sibelius’s influence on film score music, but he shows up in the pop world too. Listen to the famous “wild swans theme” in the horns in 5/3. Now track down the Kate Bush classic, “Up That Hill,” which has recently been rediscovered, as has Bush herself. Same theme, and it’s even in the same key. You’ll also find that theme in “As I Lay Me Down” by Sophie B. Hawkins, and “Sunny Came Home” by Shawn Colvin. All these tunes are on CZcams, so you can find them easily, and have a ball doing it. I’ll bet anything the latter two ladies nabbed that theme from Kate Bush.
The symphony no. 2 is my favourite one from the Sibelius' works. No. 2 is still in the style of late romanticism unlike the later symphonies by Sibelius. I think of Rachmaninoff symphony no. 2, it was written even a few years later than Sibelius' 2nd and it's still a romantic work. These are one of the last achievements in this old style. Later in the set, Sibelius ventures into modernism, the pieces are interesting, especially no. 7 and then 5, but it's not as charming and pleasant on the ear as it once was.
I love all seven of the symphonies (even the 4th!) but as a whole the 5th is my favorite. I love the 3rd, too, and its second movement, taken slowly enough, is my favorite music in all of Sibelius. He's my second favorite composer, but I like or love almost all classical music.
Maybe I'm a morose person 😄. My favorite of the Sibelius symphonies is the Fourth. The darkest, the most mysterious, the most "introverted". Cold and beautiful in its impregnability, like an icy mountain peak.
Not "complete" in the sense of series. And Kullervo is a complete symphony. Sibelius included his 4 legends as a complete(unnumbered) symphony, and many fans and some critics, agree.
I'm gonna disagree. I think it is here 1:14:28. Makes me cry like a baby every time. Though I cry more listening to performances using tempi not quite this fast, milking the d minor transition to D Major for all its worth. The gates of heaven also open at the E Major explosion at the end of the third movement of Mahler 4. :-)
Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. Come to think of it. That is funny. On the same plane of existence I mean - one time. I realiseI am treading water waiting for a new Justice to be confirmed. Hopefully. RIP Paavo Berglund. Paavo Allan Engelbert Berglund OBE (14 April 1929 - 25 January 2012)
Agree with the poster that is of the opinion that Bournemouth cycle is even better than this Helsinki, fine as this one is. As for the 2nd Symphony (two posters choose it as their favourite) DO LISTEN to Barbirollís recording With the Royal Philharmonic. Such agreat performance !. Thanks.
I'm with you about the Bournemouth cycle; especially because of the tempo of the 2nd movement of the 3rd symphony, which is my favorite utterance in all of Sibelius. In the Bournemouth recordings it's taken more slowly and given time to really breathe. Most conductors take this movement at waltz tempo, which just doesn't work. For me it's like the slow relief of the first nice day after a terrible winter. (We're in Minnesota.)
@@caseypride Took the words out of my mouth. That movement held my imagination decades before I enjoyed any of this other works. I actually hired a poet to put words to that tune so I could sing it.
@@michaelowens5394 I had just gotten to know it and my fiancee (now my wife of 33 years) and I were lying on our backs in the Washington DC Arboretum holding hands and watching the clouds. That movement was in my head, over and over, all day. A great memory, of many.
I do like the tempi better in the Bournemouth set. Sibelius should never be rushed. Our conductor here, Osmo Vanska, rushes everything; we often wonder if he's late for his bus.
My deep empathy for the music of Sibelious was intensified by a visit to Finland. I now feel that it contains the Four Elements : Land, Air, Fire, and Water. It is a land of lakes, woods and geographical solitude and the 4 elements that make the music elemental. He moves me like no other

シベリウスの交響曲は、どれも違った個性があり本当に素晴らしい。
特に崇高な7番、そして美しすぎて儚すぎる6番は、我が人生の至宝です。
両曲とも、涙なしにはとても聴けない…。
全く同感です。 2番も5番も好きですが、6番、7番あたりになるとこの世にいることすら忘れそうになるくらい没頭してしまいます。

The fifth symphony will live and stay young and beautiful forever and ever.
I can not listen to #2 without breaking down and crying,even at the age of 81.
That's okay and merely means that you are a mature individual with fully developed emotions. Which is, I must add, a very good thing.

Not "complete" in the sense of series. And Kullervo is a complete symphony. Sibelius included his 4 legends as a complete(unnumbered) symphony, and many fans and some critics, agree.
The Terminator theme is hidden inside the Symphony 1, 1st movement... Classic music is the inspiration for all filmmusic

increiblemente grandioso, la tierra habla en cada nota
Excelente selección de música!!! Se agradece mucho.
