@Mov_freak
Never heard about that music before... By the way, I recommend you all this music: Giuseppe Tartini - Devil's Trill Sonata This music is almost 300 years old, but still one of the most difficult violin music... Try go to wiki to look for its history... |

Oh, you mean "Gloomy Sunday"...
My friend did mention this to me before, but not my interest... By the way, The Blue Danube is one of the most famous classical music ever... You can listen and look at the Waltz in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHFJWCCsWWQ This post has been edited by tan_pang: Jun 17 2009, 07:29 PM |

QUOTE(TrueFalse @ Nov 4 2009, 02:10 PM) Is it normal for people to give applause right after the 1st mvt? Where you watch that performance?Went for my first ever classical performance showcase and I found it quite surprising.  and is the performer just perform 1 movement only? Giving applause between every movement seen like only happen on old day. I think unusual for now... This is the programme note of Elgar's Symphony No. 1 that I read somewhere... QUOTE on 3 December 1908. In those days, it was usual to clap between movements, but after the slow third movement, the response was especially warm, and Elgar was called on to the platform to take several bows.

QUOTE(TrueFalse @ Nov 13 2009, 08:44 PM) DFP. Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No.1. Oh... is the piano played by Behzod Abduraimov with Sydney Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Vladimir Ashkenazy?? Well, I guess it's understandable why people clapped since the 1st mvt itself is about 20 minutes long.  It's a mixed scene anyway where most of the audience at the middle and front row didn't clap at all...  I guess those audience feel impressed by his skill, and forgot that the 2nd and 3rd movement haven't start... I only go and listen to the Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3, and he really blast me away... I can see that he play until the whole piano shaking...  QUOTE(Geminist @ Nov 13 2009, 09:05 PM) I'm really excited about the concert next week by London Symphony Orchestra with Daniel Harding as the conductor. Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto and Mahler's Symphony No. 10! Hmm... I don't know about that concert...Is anyone here into Opera? Where it held at? |

QUOTE(Geminist @ Nov 14 2009, 05:09 PM) It's in Barbican, London. Oh... no wonder I don't know...  QUOTE(TrueFalse @ Nov 14 2009, 07:50 PM) Yea that one. Amazing pianist. You go for which night?Didn't notice any piano shaking but his facial expressions really impressive and energetic. Overall performance that night was great. SSO + Ashkenazy. They even performed with an extra piece from Elgar(?) after the Prokofiev's Symphony No.5. Not sure what piece is it. Man... I wish I have a video recording of that night...  I just go for the Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3 one. They encored with Dvorak's Slavonic Dance No. 2 (if I'm not mistaken). |

QUOTE(Geminist @ Jan 13 2010, 02:28 AM) People interested in Beethoven should try and get their hands on this collection recorded by LSO. LOL!!http://lso.co.uk/detailedrecordinginfo&sho...ing&detailID=67 Simply brilliant! Added on January 13, 2010, 2:30 am Be careful not to be misled by that. Research suggested that listening to classical music would help boost your mind, but only for about 10 minutes after you listened to it. I also believe that Shostakovich and Bartok's music won't help in boosting your mind. XD QUOTE(memento @ Jan 16 2010, 03:15 AM) anyone went for the Golden Age music in films orchestra in MPO?..unable to attend due to sold out tickets. What scores were played during the show? "went"?  I thought it will perform today and tomorrow? I don't know what they will perform, but look at the description... QUOTE Three decades of great movie themes squeezed into 90 minutes! Grammy Award-winner Richard Kaufman, reminds us of the great themes which made such movies as Lawrence of Arabia, Spartacus, 633 Squadron and Star Wars so memorable on and off the big screen. Imperial March??  |

Share these link and hope everyone can know more about the Malaysia Philharmonic Orchestra now...
High-flying Asian orchestra runs into heavy weather Seven questions for Asia’s sinking orchestra Demolishing an orchestra: the human cost Breaking: US guest conductor sends open sympathy letter to Malaysian Philharmonic musicians Malaysia PM’s wife hints at ethnic plan for troubled orchestra None are good news... https://www.facebook.com/pages/Save-the-Mal...120805527992911 This post has been edited by tan_pang: Mar 13 2012, 11:59 PM |

QUOTE(fujkenasai @ Mar 14 2012, 01:46 PM) THIS IS SO SO SO SAD, I guess I should go for more b4 it dissapears What made me angry is our self-claim "First Lady of Malaysia" claim that Tengku Irfan is the first Malaysian to admitted to Juilliard... After Dr.M is gone the current admin use all the money for cronies and no more for MPO  That statement made me feel like I'm not a Malaysian... She not only misleading the public, but also over-promoting him. I just hope he still can learn, never be arrogant, and be a more mature pianist and composer in future... Anyway, I personally think that Claus Peter Flor is not a good conductor. My reason is very personal: His interpretation is not what I like... And now with all these news... I really think he is not suitable to be the person that lead the orchestra... My friend went to the Emperor Concerto concert on Sunday, and he said the Emperor Concerto is a very bad performance. With some obvious mistake in timpani and piano. I like Paul Philbert very much. I believe he have perform Emperor Concerto many times as timpanist and won't make mistake easily... After heard of these news, I can understand why he can make mistake. And if I'm him, I will turn the cadenza to timpani solo!! |

QUOTE(Lydia Lowery @ Mar 16 2012, 09:45 AM) interesting thread,i am so interested in opera; Thanks for recommendation!!Elaine Paige is my angle, she made modern opera classical!!!!! Edith Gassion of course is my favorite one,love her!!!! Do you have any of her opera singing to share/show in this thread? QUOTE(fujkenasai @ Mar 19 2012, 03:10 PM) all of this is beyond our control our other option is only down south to kiasu land in the region. Another thing that I don't understand is how Claus Peter Flor have so much power in MPO until he can overthrow many great musician, and doesn't care about public view... that lion look a like old lady arr aiya no comments...

Hi Mov_Freak, I didn't listen to all Karajan's interpretation of Beethoven's Symphony (although it is very famous), but I listen to his Dvorak's Slavonic Dances before and it is very nice!
There's sample in here: http://www.deutschegrammophon.com/en/cat/4474342 My favorite is the track No. 10, Slavonic Dances, Op. 72, No. 2 |
