    NP : PRELUDE A'LA APRES-MIDI D'UN FAUNE - Claude Debussy



    One of the most gorgeous impressionistic pieces ever written IMO, the smaller scale of the orchestra allows the piece great colour and detail, a truly beautiful piece that strikes me very deeply.

    NP - Four Last Songs by Richard Strauss

    Haunting, dark, expressive beauty and unearthly lyricism beyond translation. Composed a year before his death in 1948, it seems unlikely that this late work should touch me, a 22 year old man with very little life experience, so profoundly - but it does. It is music that transcends the barriers of age and generation, and unites us through our shared experience of its universal metaphorical language.

    NP : SYMPHONY # 5 - Dmitri Shostakovitch



    Tom & Steven will say Tchaikovsky but for me Shostakovitch is # 1 Russian composer, a towering genius of 20th Century music.

    Although there are so many great Russians to consider, I believe Prokofiev posessed the superior musical thinking. The rhythmic punch to many of his opus adds a dimension unrivaled by even Stravinsky.

    Shostakovich's Symphony No. 5 is fantastic by the way, great choice! cool

    Isn't it just. cool

    And along with Shostakovitch, Prokofiev and Stravinsky let's not forget other towering giants like Mussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsakov, Rachmaninov and of course, Tchaikovsky who is one of the greatest melodist of all time.

    Glazunov is pretty entertaining, too. You can hear traces of him in Rimsky-Korsakov, who - if I remember correctly - was a student of Glazunov's.
    I am extremely serious.

    I'm not a big fan of Vaughan Williams, but that piece is wonderful! However, if heaven had a theme surely it would have to be the theme from the larghetto of Mozart's 27th piano concerto? wink

    There is no way I could possibly begin to choose a greatest "Russian composer." Each one had something special to contribute. Borodin=Polyvestian Dances. Gliere=Ilya Mourometz. Moussorgsky=Pictures at an Exhibition. The list is endless.
    listen to more classical music!
