Ketèlbey était très sûr de ses idées musicales. "In a Monastery Garden", la première pièce de cette enregistrement, écrite en 1915, porte le titre "intermezzo caractéristique" et une description : "Le premier thème représente la rêverie d'un poète dans la quiétude du jardin du monastère au milieu d'un environnement magnifique - l'atmosphère calme et sereine - les arbres feuillus et les oiseaux qui chantent. Le second thème, en mineur, exprime la note plus "personnelle" de tristesse, d'appel et de contrition. Actuellement, on entend les moines chanter le "Kyrie Eleison" (qui devrait être chanté par l'orchestre) avec l'orgue et la cloche de la chapelle qui sonne. Le premier thème est maintenant entendu de manière plus calme, comme s'il était devenu plus éthéré et distant ; le chant des moines est à nouveau entendu - il devient plus fort et plus insistant, ce qui conclut le morceau dans une lueur d'exultation". D'où l'on peut conclure qu'Albert W. Ketelbey était aussi un romantique incurable.
"Dans un marché persan", écrit en 1920, est une scène d'"intermezzo" dont le synopsis est tout aussi descriptif : les chameliers qui s'approchent, les cris des mendiants, l'entrée de la belle princesse (représentée par un thème langoureux donné d'abord à la clarinette et au violoncelle, puis à l'orchestre complet). Elle observe les jongleurs et les charmeurs de serpents... Le calife passe en interrompant le spectacle... Tous s'en vont, leurs thèmes sont entendus au loin et la place du marché devient déserte. Les dates des autres oeuvres de ce disque sont : Au clair de lune" - intermezzo (1919) ; "Chal Romano" - ouverture descriptive (1924) ; "Sanctuaire du cœur" - méditation religieuse (1924) ; "Dans un jardin de temple chinois" - fantaisie orientale (1925) ; "Cloches dans la prairie" (1927) ; "L'horloge et les figures de Dresde" (1930) ; et "Au pays mystique d'Égypte" (1931).
Ketèlbey était un écrivain prolifique qui a également travaillé sous d'autres noms, notamment Anton Vodorinski. Il a arrangé ses propres pièces pour diverses combinaisons, notamment pour les cuivres et la fanfare militaire, et la plupart des pièces les plus connues sont également apparues sous forme de chansons pour lesquelles il a presque toujours écrit ses propres paroles. D'autres transcripteurs ont fourni divers arrangements instrumentaux. Constatant que sa musique était très demandée dans les salles de cinéma « muet », il écrivit de nombreuses pièces spécialement pour ce domaine - comme la Bacchanale de Montmartre, destinée aux "scènes continentales de cabaret, d'orgie et d'émeutes".
Ketèlbey est spirituellement de l'avant-guerre, bien qu'il ait vécu jusqu'au 26 novembre 1959. Ses souvenirs sont ceux de la direction d'orchestres de pantomime en province, des spectacles de Charlot, de sa collaboration avec Gertie Millar au Vaudeville, et des personnalités avec lesquelles il a travaillé dans les studios de Columbia. Et, bien sûr, sa propre musique, écrite avec un attrait si direct pour un large public, que le monde entier doit maintenant redécouvrir comme des classiques immortels non seulement de leur époque mais de tous les temps.

Almost 65 years have gone by (I'm 80 now) when I heard this music on the radio, it was my introduction to classical music
Ooo thank you for this beautiful sharing :-) Honored to count you among our subscribers !
Happy Birthday to Albert Ketelbey REST IN POWER Blessings and Hugs 💖💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Many years ago, with a friend, I started a Hospital Broadcasting Station in Dorset: the very first exclusively for patients in a long-stay psychiatric hospital. The hospital has now closed, just as all such former "Asylums" have. But at the time, the 700-or-so patients had little entertainment, and they enjoyed the new Radio Station in which they could themselves participate. Some took part in programmes, and there was lively feedback, and several request programmes each week. One frequent request was "In a Monastery Garden" by Ketelby; requested by a number of people. No-one could ever explain why. But if it helped, we were very pleased to play it. Happy memories....
Thank you for this testimony :-)
Thank you kind and generous soul for your kindness and vision in contributing in making people’s Lives better with Music that heals. Bless you
That was so kind of you and it is immeasurable in your compassionate heart. Thank you for making the world a better place. 🙏
My parents had one Ketelbey LP. I was a kid and loved it. Well, at 43 now I still love it!
He was beloved of my parents, I am now 71 and also love his music.
This recording shows why the classic recording remains a piece of jewel to every fan of Ketelbey.
I remember i was about 15 years old, my father used to heart and i loved...make me sad...IS incredible beautiful...
Simplesmente "Divino"
I love Ketelbey!
Again another benchmark recording shared with us by Classical Music/Reference Recording, for which much gratitude. The Ambrosian Singers, John Lanchbery and the Philharmonia Orchestra give us probably the definitive performance of Ketèlbey's music. There is no purple sentimentality. It is simply expressive, and honest, and direct to the heart. And beautifully recorded!
How very very beautiful!
It seems Ketelbey had travelled many places of the world. His music works are wonderful.
Actually he never left England
아름다운 연주곡 잘 들었습니다~감사합니다~🎵🎻🎹🌿🍀☘🌹🌹☘🍀🌿❤❤
Yes! definitely British ‘light music’ at its best. Reminds us (of a certain age) of the safer, friendlier, hate-Free world we inhabited at the time these works were composed (or am I using rose-tinted spectacles?). Such simple, beautiful calming melodies, they bring tears to ones eyes. Oh Yes!
Nothing Rose-Tinted about that: it's the truth!
not to be rude, but werent these composed during WW1 and the world was still very segregated
BUT YES i do agree this music is reminiscent of a perfect and beautiful world
@@BacaOConnell In a Monastery Garden was composed during WW1. This makes the refrain "Kyrie eleison" (Lord have mercy on us) especially appropriate.
@@davemorgan6013 yes exactly right, i was just responding to the comment saying that the world was perfect back then, when it in fact was not!
Sunday Evenings so special listening to the wireless
Em 1967, eu com 17 anos, fui apresentado às obras de Ketelbey por uma gentil coleguinha de cursinho. Nunca mais a vi. Adquiri um LP de Ketelbey e tornei-me seu fã. Músicas maravilhosas.
Although he passed away, he is still remembered as one of the greatest musicians.
Very beautiful melodies in his musics are on my mind!
:-)
Sembra ricordare un 'epoca in cuu si avevano ideali chiari e tanto coraggio
Excelent ! I though this record was lost, I owned it 30 years ago, and now is wonderfull to listen it again, thank you :) Also the picture is the original . . . . .
We are happy to have made you happy :-)
Grateful for this upload. After all the time of enjoying Ketelbey's music and listening to it on cassette (remember those?), CD and here at YT, how have I never before heard "Chal Romano"? What a delightful piece....
Straordinario brano musicale che ha accompagnato il primo incontro con la donna che è poi diventata mia moglie
Thank you.
Bellísimo!!!!
Wow..very lovely!
This is a delightful work.
I remember hearing this as a toddler over 60 years ago. Hearing it again some how puts things right
Fantástica música
Franchement j'adore. Merci beaucoup. Cette musique est splendide et très apaisante. Super.
alimento da alma conforto para o espirito bem estar de um ser ,obrigado deus por conhecer ketélbey
Bedankt voor deze mooie muziek.
:-)
Una joya.......excelente para resistir la cuarentena del COVID 19 😘😘😘😘😘
The picture on its cover is very beautiful.
yes the first editions are the most beautiful :-)
Art nouveau?
a garden of notes, melodies and rhythms!
So English and so sentimental! Just lovely.
Guitarist John Fahey gives an extraordinary rendition of "In a Persian Garden" in his 1975 album "Old Fashioned Love". He takes the music to a place it had never known.
Thank you for sharing this classic recording!
Superbe, quelle beauté !
Gracias, muchas gracias.....x esto música tan hermosa. Y esta versión del disco más...
Con Mucho Gusto :)
My earliest musical memory is being allowed to get out the 1930s gramophone and playing a 78 with In a Monastery Garden on one side and In a Persian Market on the other.
awesome that brought back memories
Thank you . Very expressive music.

Della Reese sings to this music with beautiful words .She had a powerful voice . I might be wrong in saying she's passed I'm not sure . To hear it look up THE CLASSICAL DELLA I heard it the first time when I was 14 yrs old and I still love hearing her sing. I am now 74 yrs
I had this recording on cassette. Sadly worn out and gone but I really loved the music and recording. A million Thanks for the upload
you welcome :-)
Very impressive. I hear it for the first time.Thank you
Happy to make you discover :-)
I was very familiar with Ketelbey at 15 years old.I feel the influence of Elgar in some of his compositions.
Superb recording! Thanks for uploading.
:-)
All are beautiful and heartfelt gems! I simply cannot understand why the works of Ketelbey were not as highly esteemed in the world of classical music as the works of contemporary composers.
It's also noteworthy that the Dirigent is very intelligent and genial.
Eternamente belas músicas. Fazem ao Espírito. São precisamente tranquilas .
💖💫🙏
This album is one of my favorites and I used to listen frequently until the old CD desapeared(?). Now I can listen it again. Thanks for sharing this masterpiece.
This is the best!.
The Eric Rogers 1969 recording is great but I do think this one is better overall. Fidelity seems better overall and I like the chorus work much better. It is much more closely miked and intelligible....the Rogers version sounds like floating vocals in air - although quite good effect there as well.
I recall in the 1950s and 1960s my mother played 'In a Monastery Garden,' In a Persian Market,' and Sanctuary of the Heart,' on the piano. Later, I started to have piano lessons and I think that these pieces influenced me to enjoy classical music especially the romantic repertoire. I hadn't heard the orchestral and choir versions of these pieces until now and they are still enjoyable as 'light classics.'
Thank you for your feedback :-)
Hyperion Records used to have this on a disc with highly inveigling cover art - no longer
Дивно!
Так, це дуже красиво :-)
'In the Persian Market', the chorus sings, but I can't get the lyrics!
"Bakshish, bakshish.." ?
La hermosa música de Ketelbey.
Podrias publicar la letra de Santuario del Corazon.???
@@tommccanna251Te estoy muy agradecido...
Alphonse Mucha?
"In a Persian Market" is basically the music adopted in Svankmajer's "Virile games".
Reminds me Disney opening song
What a great interpretation; the traditional, Chinese instruments add a fresh twist from the sound of a western symphony orchestra. Smiled from the moment Maestro Farkhad skittered towards the podium. I'd be very surprised if the ensemble and its brilliant, young conductor didn't have an absolute blast rehearsing and performing this colourful piece. The lovely intermezzo, aka. romantic ballad 'Take my Heart', is also special because it belongs to the most important person in my life. This is my favourite vocal interpretation: czcams.com/video/wtRYl2_T5JQ/video.html by Nair
does anyone know the title or artist of the cover art?
This recording was published in 1978, as part of the 45 RPM Angel Sonic Series. In the cover of the album it shows the image shown here reflected in the water as well. So you will see it twice (on of them inverted). Unfortunately there is no credit for the author of the cover in the back of the album. Cheers!
According to Discogs it is by the American graphic artist Dick Ellescas, who illustrated many LP covers in the 60s and 70s and was also responsible for the poster used for the film "The Magic Christian" which featured Ringo Starr.
The new version, the one made for the past 40 years is just Allaho Akbar in Persian Chador shops.

There will always be a eager audience for kitsch.
