La traviata
E strano! E strano!...Ah, fors'Ã¨ lui che l'anima...Follie! Follie!...Sempre libera
Orchestra sinfonica di Torino della RAI
Conducted by Gabriele Santini
1953

VIOLETTA (sola)
Ãˆ strano! Ãˆ strano! In core
scolpiti ho quegli accenti!
Saria per me sventura un serio amore?
Che risolvi, o turbata anima mia?
Null'uomo ancora t'accendeva -- O gioia
ch'io non conobbi, esser amata amando!
E sdegnarla poss'io
per l'aride follie del viver mio?
Ah, fors'Ã¨ lui che l'anima
solinga ne' tumulti
godea sovente pingere
de' suoi colori occulti!
Lui che modesto e vigile
all'egre soglie ascese,
e nuova febbre accese,
destandomi all'amor.
A quell'amor ch'Ã¨ palpito
dell'universo intero,
misterioso, altero,
croce e delizia al cor!
Follie! follie! Delirio vano Ã¨ questo!
Povera donna, sola,
abbandonata in questo
popoloso deserto
che appellano Parigi.
Che spero or piÃ¹?
Che far degg'io? Gioire,
di voluttÃ ne' vortici perir.
Gioir, gioir!
Sempre libera degg'io
folleggiare di gioia in gioia,
vo' che scorra il viver mio
pei sentieri del piacer.
Nasca il giorno, o il giorno muoia,
sempre lieta ne' ritrovi,
a diletti sempre nuovi
dee volare il mio pensier.
ALFREDO (sotto al balcone)
Amore, amor Ã¨ palpito...
VIOLETTA
Oh!
ALFREDO
...dell'universo intero --
VIOLETTA
Oh amore.
ALFREDO
Misterioso, misterioso, altero,
croce, croce e delizia,
croce e delizia, delizia al cor.
VIOLETTA
Follie! follie! Ah sÃ¬! Gioir, gioir!
Sempre libera degg'io
folleggiare di gioia in gioia,
vo' che scorra il viver mio
pei sentieri del piacer.
Nasca il giorno, o il giorno muoia,
sempre lieta ne' ritrovi,
a diletti sempre nuovi,
dee volare il mio pensier.
ALFREDO
Amor Ã¨ palpito
dell'universo --
VIOLETTA
Ah! Dee volar il mio pensier.
Ah! il mio pensier. Il mio pensier.

Luciano Pavarotti - La Donna è Mobile Rigoletto

The "king" Luciano Pavarotti as Il Duca di Mantova in the screen movie "Rigoletto" (1983) based on Giuseppe Verdi's opera with the same name (1851).

La Donna è Mobile - Giuseppe Verdi

La donna è mobile
Qual piuma al vento
Muta d'accento
E di pensiero

Sempre un'amabile
Leggiadro viso
In pianto o in riso
Ãˆ menzognero

La donna è mobil
Qual piuma al vento
Muta d'accento
E di pensier
E di pensier
E di pensier

è sempre misero
Chi a lei s'affida
Chi le confida
Mal cauto il core

Pur mai non sentesi
Felice appieno
Chi su quel seno
Non liba amore

La donna è mobil
Qual piuma al vento
Muta d'accento
E di pensier
E di pensier
E di pensier...

Arno Bornkamp: Debussy Rhapsodie pour Orchestre et Saxophone part 1

Arno Bornkamp performs Debussy Rhapsodie pour Orchestre et Saxophone version Bornkamp and Janssen during his concert at Salerno Casino Sociale Red Hall on June 29 2010 with pianist Giulio De Luca. Event organized by Salerno Conservatoire. Dutch saxophonist Arno Bornkamp is the archetype of the modern virtuoso, feeling equally at home in traditional and contemporary repertoire. Hailed as a lyrical musician with a great sense of performance, Bornkamp studied at the Sweelinck Conservatory in Amsterdam with Ed Bogaard and graduated in 1986 with the highest distinction. He has won many awards, the 'Silver Laurel of the Concertgebouw' and the 'Netherlands Music Prize' among the most noteworthy. The latter enabled him to go abroad, studying in France with Daniel Deffayet and Jean-Marie Londeix, in Japan with Ryo Noda as well as working with composers as Luciano Berio and Karlheinz Stockhausen. Since his 1982 solo debut in Rome, performing the 'Concertino da Camera' by Jacques Ibert, he has played more than 250 concerts with orchestras around the world, including the most important works from the saxophone repertoire in addition to new concerti written especially for him, such as the 'Tallahatchie Concerto' by Jacob TV. In the year 2009 Bornkamp added 3 new works to his repertoire: 'Trois Danses' (orig. for oboe) by Frank Martin and 2 new saxophone concerto's by Joey Roukens and Carlos Michans. Chamber music is also a great love of Arno Bornkamp. He has a long-standing duo with ...

Maurice Duruflé : Requiem pour chœur et orgue (1947) 1/4 **MUST BE

Maurice Duruflé (1902-1986) Requiem pour chœur et orgue (1947) 1/4 **MUST BE HEARD** Organiste : Hannfried Lucke Dir de chœur : Hördur Askelsson 1- Introït et Kyrie (7.45) Maurice Duruflé fut un compositeur perfectionniste d'inspiration religieuse et un organiste célèbre, mais discret. Il eut pour professeur de composition au Conservatoire de Paris Charles-Marie Widor et pour professeur d'orgue Eugène Gigout. Devenu l'assistant de Louis Vierne à Notre-Dame de Paris, Maurice Duruflé fut durant des décennies le grand organiste de Notre-Dame jusqu'à ce qu'un accident de voiture, survenu en 1975, l'handicape gravement. Il créa à Paris, en 1939, le remarquable « Concerto pour orgue » de Francis Poulenc et orchestra en 1943 « Soirs étrangers, pour violoncelle et piano » de Louis Vierne. Essentiellement tournée vers son instrument de prédilection, l'orgue, l'œuvre de Duruflé n'a pas rencontré un grand écho dans le public. Ses trois partitions pour orchestre : les somptueuses « Trois danses », composées en 1932, qui rendent hommage à l'enseignement de son maître Paul Dukas, l'« Andante et Scherzo » (1940) et la « Messe Cum Jubilo, pour baryton solo, chœur de barytons et orchestre » (1966) restent peu connues. Seul le majestueux « Requiem », achevé en 1947, d'inspiration grégorienne, s'est hissé à la célébrité, rejoignant le « Requiem » (1900) de Gabriel Fauré avec lequel il partage un refus de la grandiloquence, l'un comme l'autre n'incluant pas la section la plus virulente d'un ...

Clair de Lune - Randy George - Theremin

Clair de Lune by Claude Debussy.

Randy George, theremin
http://randygeorgemusic.com

Beautiful piece of music. Please enjoy. Higher quality video download at: http://bit.ly/cdlRGM
If you are new to the theremin, please discover it in more depth. It is the most fascinating musical instrument in the world (when played as it was originally intended).

The theremin entered my life four years ago. It has been a tremendously challenging journey, but it is immensely rewarding. The theremin is absolutely deceptively difficult to play with musical precision and finesse.

Clara Rockmore, the foremost virtuoso of the theremin introduced it to the world as a serious musical instrument. Over the course of recent music history, this expressive voice was forgotten. Watch/listen to electronic music pioneer Robert Moog discuss the theremin in a video entitled "bob moog cnn" in my video favorites section.

I feel it's definitely time to reconnect with the roots of the instrument. With these classical theremin videos, I hope to light the way back home.

I would like to send a huge personal thanks to mathematician/thereminist, Thierry Frenkel. The volume expression circuit of my Moog Etherwave Pro theremin has been modified with a very important enhancement that he designed. visit his website for more info at: http://theremin.tfrenkel.com

Pavane pour une Infante Défunte by Maurice Ravel

ピアノバージョンです。 "Pavane pour une Infante défunte" Maurice Ravel

Maurice Ravel. Pavane pour une infante défunte.

Versión extraída del Cd "Adagio Karajan II". Ravel compuso esta famosa pieza, para piano solo, en 1899; en 1910 publicó una versión orquestada de la misma. Ricardo Viñes fue quien la estrenó, tocandola en Paris el 5 de abril de 1902. La pavana (pavane) era una danza lenta y solemne que gozó de mucha popularidad en el Renacimiento; sin embargo, esta pieza de Ravel no tiene de pavana más que el título. Música tranquila y serena, me gusta.

Brahms Piano Quartet C Minor 3rd mvt Andante opus 60

One of Brahms' most beautiful slow movements, for string trio with piano.

FAQ

Q: Who is playing this piece?
A: Sorry, I don't know. I licensed this recording from Keith Salmon, of Royalty Free Classical Music (dot org).

Q: Who is this Brahms person?
A: You can read about him here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahms

Q: If it's a piano quartet, why do I hear violins?
A: A piece of music for a solo instrument accompanied by a piano is most often called a sonata (violin sonata, flute sonata, etc.), but when a string trio (violin, viola, violoncello) is joined by a piano, it's called a piano quartet. A piece for four pianists is usually referred to as "eight-hand piano music." Go figure.

Q: Something sounds wrong in the second beat of the measure that starts at 5:26.
A: Yes; the violist plays a D-natural on the second beat; it should be a D-sharp.

Q: This is really beautiful; what other pieces are like this?
A: I don't know of another piece that's this beautiful in quite this way, but the other piano trios, quartets and quintets of Schubert, Schumann and Brahms are really good, so that's a good place to start.

Q: Is there a way I could make the bar-graph scores myself?
A: The Music Animation Machine MIDI file player will generate this display; you can get the (Windows) software here:
http://www.musanim.com/player/
There are lots of places on the web where you can get MIDI files; I usually go to the Classical Archives site first:
http://www.classicalarchives.com/

Q: Could you do a MAM video of _________?
A: Please read this:
http://www.musanim.com/all/MAMRequests.html

Q: Can I get a DVD with videos like this?
A: Yes:
http://www.musanim.com/mam/video.html

Q: What do the colors in the bar-graph score mean?
A: The colors indicate: violin, viola, violoncello, piano top staff, piano bottom staff.

Q: Why do the scores move at different speeds?
A: The bar-graph score is graphical, and in it, time translates exactly into horizontal position; conventional notation is symbolic, so there is usually one symbol per note, regardless of whether it's a long or a short note, and the symbols are more or less evenly spaced (for legibility); so, when the notes are faster, the notation needs to move faster to keep up.

Q: Why am I crying?
A: I don't know, but the first time I heard this piece in a concert, I cried too. I also cried the first time I read through it with string players. Something about it.
