😊❤What a loverly way to describe this hauntingly beautiful piece of music.
@BebtelovimabSpecifically, the 44th floor of the Hudsucker Building, not counting the mezzanine.
@@mark11727Sure, sure...
Nope, that sounds like this czcams.com/video/0Af7ayYIJ9w/video.htmlsi=IxhgorkocD-_sBX3
I was five or six years old when I first heard this piece on television. It was the theme song from "The Onedin Line“. The music uplifted me and I was moved to tears. I had never heard anything like this before. I was falling in love.
But I didn't know the name of the piece or the composer. I only knew: it’s this song from that „TV series with the sailing ships.“ For years I searched for the song, asked my grandparents, parents, aunts and uncles. Nobody knew it. There was no internet and no google to ask back then.
Years went by. When I was 30 years old, I was in Speyer, Germany. All of a sudden I heard some music from a distance. There was a violinist at the cathedral. And he played that piece! I could not believe what I was hearing. I rushed towards the violinist. Talked to him. He told me the name of the piece and the composer. And played it again. Just for me.
I felt like I had finally met the love of my life again - after losing her. And I could finally take her in my arms. After years of separation.
And this is exactly what Spartacus & Phrygia is about.
With one exception: i didn’t die.
Thank you for your wonderful narrative. Just like you, I first heard the deeply touching melody in the English vessel series "The Onedin Line" in the 1980s and did not know which composer wrote this wonderful piece. It was only a few years later, by chance, that I bought a cassette of works by Khatchaturian and recognized the lyrical and dramatic Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia. It is one of my favorite pieces by Khatcharturian, whom I love very much for his Caucasian and exuberant color. I also played a few easier piano pieces by Khatchaturian, who is technically very demanding, of course not really manageable for an amateur piano player.
You must write and publish. It is a light in your words.
Hermosa historia de amor...🎼❤️
Bonjour, j'ai exactement connu la même anecdote, le générique de fin de ce feuilleton qui se passait sur un magnifique trois mats le "Charlotte Ross", moi non plus je ne savais pas qui avait composé ce déchirant adagio ! Je l'ai découvert plus de trente ans après en écoutant par hasard une station de radio qui passe du classique : France Musique ! Cela a été une révélation ! Je pleure comme une madeleine en l'écoutant... C'est juste sublime.
How beautifully written, out of a beautiful emotional world. I have heard the piece for the first time in the same series, 'Onedin line' a long time ago, and just like you, love the piece to this day.
The feeling when listening to the Adagio is that A. katchaturian had either been snatched up to Heaven for a few moments, or that an angel inspired him.
He always have been in heaven
When the main theme starts full force it feels like all walls have dropped and you're finally free...
If this doesn't give you goosebumps, then you truly have no soul.
We need this music to day….Khachaturian have deservd a much bigger name in the music world!!!
His name is big enough. His name recognition may not be as big but it is our fault, not a fault of those who worked with him or those who covered his work.
In my opinion this is the single most beautiful piece of music ever created.
It’s definitely up there. I also think the last 2.5 minutes of Rachmaninov’s Third piano concerto and the first minute or two of his Second symphony Adagio movement are just beautiful.
It was from the Onedon Line series
Einfach nur wunderschön...es geht unter die Haut.....❤❤❤
If they play this in heaven, eternity can never be long enough......
Հրաշք, հրաշք, հրաշք։ Կարծես հոգիս սավառնում է տիեզերքում։Բրավո մեծ վարպետ Արամ Խաչատրյանին
This piece introduced me to classical music and opened my heart to the love of beautiful music ever since I was a child.
Lucky you.
Welcome to the world of music lovers because it is exhilarating to make comments. *Lucien*
Me too Tania. My mum loved the tv program that used this piece, I just loved the music. Has been my favourite classical piece since childhood. I have explored lots of classical music since then but Khachaturian has remained my all time favourite, this just makes me cry every time, its so emotive, I love it
I'm 47,just started, never too late to real appreciate classical
@@Sirius-me5zy A few suggestions for you:
1) Aaron Copland - Appalachian Spring; Rodeo; Billy the Kid
2) Alan Hovhaness - Symphony No. 2 "Mysterious Mountain"
3) Antonin Dvorak - Symphony No. 9 "From the New World"; Serenade for Strings
4) Samuel Barber - Adagio for Strings
5) Gustav Holst - The Planets
6) Ottorino Respighi - The Pines of Rome
7) William Alwyn - Symphony No. 3
The music so fits the story of Spartacus and the slaves and their courageous yet ultimately doomed fight for freedom. It's still relevant to injustice today, and is eternally beautiful.
Eternally beautiful.....
The nature of man has been like this done since the dawn of time. *Lucien*
As a teenager growing up in the UK in the 1970's, Sunday evenings, BBC1 The Onedin Line with its beautiful theme - Khachaturian's "Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia".
Happy happy days .reminds me of my parents.

Music from heaven.
Armenian. Kachaturian is an armenian composer, but for those years Armenia was part of the URSS. Stop war in every part of the world. Stop Azerbaiyans agression over armenians in Nagorno Garapagh. Dont forget them
What must it be like to play such wonderful music ?!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
ethereal, heavenly, transcending, mesmerizing - one of my favorite orchestral pieces
Musik 🎶 is the way over all Limits, all borders, all nations
🕊🕊🕊
Thank you all so much for this perfect adagio ❤
This piece epitomizes tragic romance; first, romanticizing the death of Spartacus, and secondly, Phrygia’s heartbreak for the loss of her beloved Spartacus.
Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! The climax at c. 6.32 is perfect and so emotional
Shiver down the spine wonderful. Imagine the extra oomph when sitting in the audience.
In my 14 years of living, I’ve genuinely never been so captivated by music before. I heard this somewhere and had been searching for it for a whole week straight, and I’m absolutely awestruck. Goose bumps.
Lol, did you hear this in the movie IF, because that’s where I heard it from.
@@Ezrah12 yeah 😭, what’s funny is I was going to go see the planet of the apes movie, but it was sold out so I saw IF instead.
The world of Classical Music is a wonderland filled with a lifetime of great thrilling and touching experiences.
Absolutely beautiful, powerful, emotional perfection.
The Armenian vibes of Aram Khachaturian❤️
🇦🇲🙏💋Արամ Խաչատրյան հայ մեծ հսկա, թող քո հոգին լույսերի մեջ լինի։
Русский он 😂
Если бы не советская власть и не московская музыкальная школа то не было б от вашей республики такой личности 😂
Не позорься . Армянские гены дали музыкантов пер капитана гораздо больше чем все другие нации .
@@nonam3093 ваши «гены» без систематического образования ничего значат.
Maestro Azim leads this ensemble extremely well!!
This Armenien piece of Music is womderful and played equilly wonderful
I first heard this back in the mid seventies, it was the music to the program Onedin Line. I was only a young boy and even loved it then.
I was lucky to see the ballet Spartacus years ago . Aram Khachaturian was very talented . Once you listen to his music , you want to hear more . I think this is the best of what I heard . It is very dramatic and yet very elegant . Thanks . Spasibo .
I get goosebumps sooo beautiful and haunting at the same time💖🌸👏👏
You obviously have a soul. Trust it.
Same here. Stunning music. Musicians interpret it so beautifully.
Magnifique interprétation d’une magnifique composition!
I imagine this is what heaven sounds like 👍🏼
Our great Kachatrian 🇦🇲
The Armenian legend 🇦🇲
Let only music rule the world fans, let it just sound this good, what a heavenly delight this track yeah, the legendary Spartacus fate fans
It is more than music! 👏🏼
It is heart.
Perfect music to be sitting on a boat wind in your face, I'm there now !
Si esto fuera lo único valioso compuesto por Khachaturian ya le alcanzaría para quedar como un genio en la historia de la música
Reminds me of my childhood and watching the Onedin Line.
Yes mee too
O love or ❤
A sublime piece of music. The strings, woodwinds, harp, brass, and percussion weave their seamless tapestry as they guide us through the struggle of Spartacus.
This piece of music is endlessly beautiful and this is one of the best performance I've ever heard. Many thanks!
Thank you very much! It’s very kind of you)
I have loved this ever since I heard it originally on a PBS series. The Onedin Line.
Incredibly talented Aram Khachaturian and one of his masterpieces!
Pride of Armenia and Armenian nation 🇦🇲🫶🏻
Aram Khachaturian, Glorious Name
I keep playing this over and over..... Love it!!!!
Same here
I just "stumbled" upon this while searching for ballett videos and I cant stop repeating this video.
I literally watching with my mouth open and a single tear rolling down my cheek.
Brilliant
Einfach nur schön. Was für ein gefühlvoller, toller Komponist.Ich liebe ihn schon seit der Schulzeit.❤ Simply beautiful. What a sensitive, stunning composer he was. I' ve loved him since my time at school. Always.
The ballet is spectacular. And Spartacus and his wife dancing this on the eve of his defeat - heartrending.
And then, a quotation from it does segue remarkably well into the sound-track behind a clipper cutting through the ocean .
Lovely piece.
I have grown up around the Classics of some of the most influential composers from this beautiful planet. This piece, along with many others draws me back to my childhood and soothes my tempered soul. Beautiful.
A celestial master performance of Khatchaturian's famous master piece. Thank you so much, dear Moscow State Symphony Orchestra and Azim Karimov. May humanity come together as one united in music, the most celestial form of art, reminding us of the true meaning of life, which is to praise the beauty of god's creation.
It is incredible that a slave who tried to be free gave birth to such beautiful music. Obviously Spartacus won, the Romans disappeared.
Мой брат играл мне всегда 'Танец сабли ' и полюбила Хачатуряна навсегда . Великий композитор .Спасибо.
μουσική που μιλά στη ψυχή … τέλειο!
Just gorgeous........ gasp!
I first heard it when I was a kid in a foreign movie series,
It hit me so hard in my heart, that I followed each series from beginning to end, even though I did not understand a word, only to capture even 30 seconds of music.
The Hudsucker Proxy film reminded me of this unforgettable piece.
This is so so so very beautiful, i am crying my eyes out!
And Ballet was also to die for ❤
Highly recommend 🙏
insanın ruhunu okşaya nadir melodilerden biri ve çok iyi performe eden bir orkestra...nefis...
Absolutely takes my breath away ~
My favorite classical piece ever
This was the theme music to the British series, Poldark, when i was a kid - '70s. IMO the best piece of music ever written. And I think this is the best performance of it I have heard.
It was actually the theme for Onedin Maritime Line series in the 70' s
@@christietheo2168 and it was the music played over the opening credits of the movie 'The Hudsucker Proxy' by the Coen brothers no less!
Hello Christie
Did you send me this recording, my favorite. I searched for a recording of this for years in the '60s. Finally found it on Columbia by the Philadelphia Philharmonic. I always play it for my Armenian friends.
and also the opening of "CALIGULA".
(the one with Peter O'Toole and Hellen Mirren)
Food for soul ....
Wonderful! What a lovely performance....
What an exquisite job of conducting, Sir. 🙏🩷
Thank you!
Wings for mind and soul
Thanks a lot..🕊
One of my most favorite pieces ❤️. I wish I had learned strings in addition to brass (I played trumpet and baritone). I hope my sons develop a love for classical music too.
I come listen every couple of days to this. It is such a beautiful piece of music.
Какая любовь жила в душе автора!
I wasn't sure about Classical music, I knew it was good because of the performance put in to it, but then I heard this and thought Wow The Onedin line theme! listened to it again and again and thought Wow this is beautiful and so much more!!
I am so glad some one else remembers The Onedin Line.
What can you say about that wonderful simply wonderful.
What a wonderful piece of music. Thank you!
Beautiful music!!!
Гениальная Музыка! Шедевр мирового музыкального искусства! Прекрасное, вдохновенное исполнение!
This song reminds me of the Spring time and the awakening of Nature. I imagine beautiful gardens and green pastures, flowing rivers and gurgling brooks. Fields with flowers and plants, trees.
Me too I remember hearing it a long time ago with a TV show, loved it ! Still do ! Never knew he composed it ! Wow ! Beautiful !
Listen to his Masquerade suite si beautiful as well ! My favourite Waltz!
Thank You !
One of my favorite pieces, it gives me peace.
Absolutely gorgeous! The intro--stunning in beauty. Great performance.
Just phenomenal! Great arrangements. Amazing job everyone!
Bravo oboe!!!! Top👍👍👍
Это океан ласкающий душу ! Гениально!👏👏👏
Yes, I thoroughly agree with you. Now please tell the Russians to stop killing innocent Ukrainians!!!!!
And your comment is poetry!
Magnifique musique.
BRAVO ! BRAVO ! BRAVO !
MERCI mon chér compositeur Armenien.
You need to see the ballet with it - the Bolshoi broadcast to cinemas last year was fabulous.
I saw Masquerade in Yerevan in 2018 or 2019 - equally magical - but very rarely performed today.
Wonderful!❤❤❤
I will find it .that sounds just like apiece of heaven
Yes l agree, you need the choreography. Saw the Spartacus ballet at the Tashkent Opera House during an unforgettable Uzbekistan trip, Easter 2008. Lady conductor. The piece is uneven but fascinatingly virile, almost homoerotic. Then came this sublime pas de deux and everybody in the theatre, including our conductor, wept openly. As did l.
Thanks for posting this video . I can listen to this Adagio from Spatacus all day . Spasibo vam Azim Karimov .
Lovely lovely you great artists contributions with excellent rendition made my heart melted. Very great you professionals.
Per me è la rinascita ... l'alba...il nuovi inizio..
Aram, l'orgoglio armeno.
Just the sheer joy of performance, beautiful!
Wonderful. Thank you
Thank you!
Woooow - ....ist das nicht der Wahnsinn ...🌪.... wenn und wie die Musik aufgeht💥 !!!?
....immer wieder Gänsehaut und "Arme auseinander zum Himmel gestreckt" !
Also, wenn einer verstanden hat was das LEBEN IST - was ein Herzschlag bedeutet - 💓 dann dieser Komponist!
И композитор, и художник, и поэт! Люди, создающие прекрасное, остаются в веках...
What a beautiful interpretation
Thank you!
¡Bravo! ¡Bravisimo! Excelente interpretacion una de los mejores adaggios de la musica clasica. Felicitaciones al director y a cada uno de los integrantes de la orquesta y por supuesto a Khachaturiam donde se encuentre
This piece reminds me of my soulmate who I lost 💔
Beautiful performance! My like 1739!

Гениальный Хачатурян и великолепная трактовка!
The melody and harmony is very beautiful! I admire the musical talent and sense of the Russian!
Super; Instrumente auch toll eingefangen. Haupt-Thema sehr emotional schön; geht unter die Haut.
