BBC Proms 2002 ٠ Revueltas, Falla ٠ Diemecke, BBC SO

BBC Proms 2002 ٠ Revueltas, Falla ٠ Diemecke, BBC Symphony Orchestra

One of the finest Mexican conductors, Enrique Arturo Diemecke, is an usual guest from many orchestras around the world, and first Mexican conductor to make an exclusive record for Deutsche Grammophon this 2009. To celebrate this huge accomplish I shared a special concert performed at the BBC Proms on 2002 with guest conductor Enrique Arturo Diemecke playing a program that shows two very milestones from Iberoamerican music. First part of the program was Nigh of the Mayas, written by superb Mexican composer Silvestre Revueltas, considered by may as the most important Mexican composer from XXth Century. The other is a concert version from Short life, or La vida breve, written by Manuel de Falla, one of the most important and finest Spanish composer of the past Century.

On this performance Diemecke is accompained by one of the finest female singers of International and Mexican scene, Mexican soprano María Luisa Tamez, and Felicity Palmer. This is a truly gem of a concert, with a very superb group of performes that bring to life a very complicated music, specially those of Revueltas, with its astonishing percusive instruments and rhythms that maybe reminds Stravinsky's Rite of Spring.

Tangerine Dream Exclusive videos

Tangerine Dream live full non oficial videos

As a gift for the Holidays to all the friends and people at Mercuryserver, I post 3 full videos from pioneers of electronic music, German trio Tangerine Dream, from 3 different ages.

First video is an impressive live performance at Coventry Cathedral in 1975 performing superb Ricochet album from 1975, an absolutely Master piece that has influenced almost any producer of EDM you can name, when they start to make a more subtle and melodic music, after a short period of experimental music, as a followers of all the avant-garde school of electronic music on which one can related with such a names as Karlheinz Stockhausen and Pierre Hanry among many others. This album was one of the finest works of this superb electronic mastertrio, and as you will see, they not only play keyboards as one may think, but also big computers on wich they use to make all the electronic programming, and tapes, on which they recorded many sound effects.

Second video belongs to a very late period on their career. On this, they perform an astonishing version of a piece that opens 1981 Album Exit, "Kiew Mission", an incredible programatic album which explores musically cold war and spionage world on obsessive and subtle atmospheres.

Third video is also from the same age of previous one, and it is also the openning track from 1983 masterpiece album White Eagle, "Mojave Plan", but in this version they are accompained by a ful symphonic orchestra. The result is very impressive, and they show that they can conceive their own music and live performance in a very wide range of ways of being played on stage.

Here can only regret that other electronic producers, such Puul van Dyk and Paul Oakenfold, from whom I have listened playing with orchestra some tunes by their owns, has not this wide music vission we can watch and listen at here.

So, celebrating this Holidays, I hope this amazing videos remember to many of you memories that made possible many of EDM sounds and atmospheres.

As usual, not password for any of these files.

Re: Jazz, Opera, Classical

That's awesome, are there many neo classical DJs out there? I bet it must be hard to find a venue to play at.

I've only really discovered this sound myself. Absolutely love it. The last set I posted here only really contains piano and some percussion, and it works so well

I agree, I'd say it's more about the love of the music, rather than playing at venues, which I imagine are also hard to find.

Karlheinz Stockhausen - Gruppen, for 3 Orchestras - Rattle, Carewe, Harding

Karlheinz Stockhausen - Gruppen, for 3 Orchestras - Rattle, Carewe, Harding

This is one of the most amazing orchestral works of XXth Century, that hardly can find a similar on musical history. Mozart wrote some time some symphonies for two orchestras, bott language and technique used by the Salzburger genius was according to his time, and limited by this. This is fascinating Gruppen, or in English, Groups, one of the many masterpieces by German composer Karlheinz Stockhausen, written in late 60s for 3 orchestras, in a full video, to see the full reach of this very hard and complex masterpiece, that you can see and listen in full power. Enjoy!

Eluvium [2006b US] Live at Seattle

Eluvium [2006b US] Live at Seattle

I think this is gonna be something very special for our friend Micko and also for Darin, because I posted this special post for them. I'm sure you know that Eluvium is tha artistic name of Matthew Cooper, one of the true masters of ambient and neo-classical music in the US. This is the only live recording of his work, from a concert in Seattle in 2006. I have no further info about this concert, but the sound is great. Hope you liked.
