| novarock86 ::: Favorites 2007-12-15 18:16:45 Oh God I hate Letterman. Rik Mayall owns him... Dave doesn't even know when he's telling a joke or when he's saying something random...what an idiot. He loves himself so much...and for what, look at him. __________________________________________________ | |

Description: A celebrated performance conducted by Leopold Stokowski with the London Symphony Orchestra, Royal Festival Hall, London, 14 June 1972. Part 2 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1P85n9uPzE "Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune" by Claude Debussy. Performed on the double occassion of Stokowski's 90th birthday, and 60th anniversary of his LSO debut. Though he conducted the entire program from that 1912 concert, it was this Debussy performance folks recall most memorably. "Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune" was a specialty of Stokowski over the years, but he and his soloists surpassed themselves on this night, as you will see! Christopher Palmer wrote in "The Musical Times" that "My most treasured memory of the evening is undoubtedly 'Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune', which received a reading of exceptional refinement with all the tensions and relaxations effortlessly and beautifully graded, and unerringly poetic solo work from all the woodwind. A flawless performance." in "The Daily Telegraph" Peter Stadlen wrote "Stokowski's legendary hands, though batonless, are put to the strictest functional use. His angular, almost ungainly movements are the simple tools for some of he most masterly conducting the century has witnessed....by what seemingly incongruous flicks of the wrist did he promote the fabulously sensitve solos in 'Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune'? Never has lifelong global fame rested on more solid foundations." adapted from the liner notes by Edward Johnson Debussy: Prelude to "The Afternoon of a Faun" |

| riskyrieske ::: Favorites 2007-12-14 12:34:46 My step-grandfather was a colleague and friend of Stowkowski, working with him on the production of Disney's fantasia. (Yes, he knew Disney too.) He said that Leopold was quite an interesting man. They corresponded frequently until my grandfather's death. They wanted to put this in Fantasia, but Disney thought that it would be too risque. __________________________________________________ | |
| jannokas85 ::: Favorites 2007-12-12 12:46:39 LOL...i know this, but this type of music is still classical music...this particular piece is indeed impressionistic...but it classifies under classical...it's just that pebot33 is saying it's not from the classical era and i'm not even arguing him...simply extending his thought... __________________________________________________ | |
| skaterbasist ::: Favorites 2007-12-12 11:56:00 Great piece. Studied this piece in my music class. It's 20th Century Impressionistic western classical music. __________________________________________________ | |
| shahinrick ::: Favorites 2007-12-12 06:10:28 This kind of music is known as impressionism....it's two generations after classic (Mozart, Beethoven) and romantic music (Chopin, Schubert). Debussy is also known, as THE creator of impressional music. __________________________________________________ | |
| jannokas85 ::: Favorites 2007-12-08 20:35:11 It's still called classical music in general...it's not pop music, is it? But that doesn't really matter th slightest what it's called...Debussy was a genius and this music is divine! __________________________________________________ | |
| jannokas85 ::: Favorites 2007-12-08 20:35:00 Wish i could have seen Nijinsky's perfomance of this... __________________________________________________ | |
| pebot33 ::: Favorites 2007-12-08 06:45:56 This is from the twentieth century, so it's not classical music like Mozart and Haydn are. __________________________________________________ | |
| amill61 ::: Favorites 2007-12-04 11:32:45 My understanding is that it was, or was turned into a ballet. Nijinsky danced it as the faun and caused an uproar for being excessively erotic. I recall seeing an old film fragment of one of his performances - it was memorable as being passionate as you would expect from the score __________________________________________________ | |
| xallthatJAZZ ::: Favorites 2007-11-29 22:54:22 this is my favorite piece of classical music. also, this is one of the most difficult solos ever written for flute. beautiful :] __________________________________________________ | |
| Catherine102591 ::: Favorites 2007-11-28 20:18:17 beautiful! i love the oboe part :] __________________________________________________ | |
| helmsdeep84 ::: Favorites 2007-11-16 05:23:09 Very mellow and serene....I could sleep with this playing. EXCELLENT! __________________________________________________ | |

| AdamSTrotman ::: Favorites 2007-11-06 22:09:39 Is this peice supposed to be erotic? Did it have the same effect on others? The only other orchestral peices I have ever heard are ones by Bartok and this certainly rates highly. Top notch. __________________________________________________ | |
