I believe Sibelius is the absolute master of simplicity, it's never too much and never too little.
???? Sibelious is completely awful, wdym???

Bad taste
@@pineapple7024 The guy you`re replying to is notorious. He didn`t get any success with the rather generic compositions he uploaded, so his strategy to get clicks is by making rage inducing youtube comments to bait people into leaving comments on his videos, boosting him up in the youtube algorhythm.

Oh, I know, that’s why I put minimal effort in replying to him. It’s fine, careers aren’t built off of shit talking legends in your field, so I’m glad I won’t remember him in a year
I love this set. It's so quietly unapologetic. "I'm just music and I'm content with that"
Sibelius is one of the great composers of the Romantic era. Listening to the works you experience pleasant emotions. The impromtu's are very beautiful. I especially liked the fifth, also B minor is my favorite key. I am a pianist and I think that all Impromptu 's are beautiful. I believe that I will somehow play all of them myself. 😊
V and VI are my favorites.
I is my favourite but they’re all 👌
Délicieuses Pieces Folkloriques 🙏🙏🙏
amazing. sounds like slavic music
there's a really free but reserved usage of dissonance in these pieces I feel. on one hand dissonances are often unprepared, have no resolution, even sometimes function as resting or pedal harmonies, but are used relatively sparingly. very serene and interesting effect, almost bit satie-esque in my opinion (especially in the last three). also the phrases, melodies and the voiceleading in the harmonic accompaniment are often kind of blocky and unintuitive. all of that makes for a really intimate, kind of novel and weird impression. Im not entirely sure if I like it that much stylistically, but it is definitely very interesting!
What a fantastic analysis! This is, of course, an earlier piece, so Sibelius was still experimenting to try and find his voice as a composer but nonetheless I do agree that some parts feel a bit weird stylistically.
@@pyotr-ilyich-tchaikovsky thanks :) yes that's good to keep in mind. I am also yet to listen to his major orchestral works, and to get to know him and his most important music better!
Nah bro, it doesn't make for a "novel and weird impression" it makes for bad music.
This first one could be in the hunger games movies
Nr. 3, in a minor is great.
Nice.
Indeed they are!
Sibelius creates a world of Finnish dances, folk songs and spirits. A musical place unto itself, similar, yet distinctively seperate from its Viking and Slavic neighbors.
they’re all sort of the same theme
Guys i have a question?
What Jean Sibelius composition fits perfectly with Dostoevskys book crime and punishment?
The second string quartet “voces intimae”
Sibelius is a great composer. These compositions, including #5 are not elements of his greatness. Only a Finn would understand why he had to compose these odd pieces. They have great didactic value but no one wants to hear them.
Thanks for posting but this composer's overrated to me
Oh, why is that? I understand this set is not some of his best work, but his orchestral music is incredible in my opinion.
he is super good whatchu mean
Incredible in which aspect ?@@pyotr-ilyich-tchaikovsky
His thematic writing and development in his symphonies is fantastic, I think, and his skillful orchestration really emphasises the beauty of his melodies. He also makes great use of tonal colours.
@@pyotr-ilyich-tchaikovskysibelius is very interesting and original. On grounds of originality I would rate Sibelius higher than Tchaikovsky
