Stefan S. gick noga igenom tillkomsten och innehållet i de båda första

MEN

Den stora behållningen

var hans berättelse om hur Sibelius med femte symfonin

lancerade ett helt nytt tonspråk

Jag hade glömt kameran hemma, tog mobilbilder, vilket förklarar den dåliga upplösningen…

”Though having spent nearly 30 years in the public spotlight, Jean Sibelius found his works receiving poor reviews for the first time with the 1911 premiere of his Fourth Symphony and, as James Hepokoski theorized, the composer “was beginning to sense his own eclipse as a contending modernist.”

These events perhaps brought Sibelius to a point of crisis in his career, maybe forcing him to choose between changing his style to fill the more modern desires of audiences or continue composing as he felt best fit. The first version of this symphony kept his orchestral style (consonant sonorities, woodwind lines in parallel thirds, rich melodic development, etc.) while further developing his structural style. Hepokoski calls this structural development “sonata deformation” or the change and development of sonata form itself. The success of this change is reflected in the popularity of the Fifth Symphony to the present day.”

Stefans förinformation var ovärderlig för att   tillgodogöra sig verket maximalt!
