Leonard Bernstein - Carl Nielsen: Symphony No.5,
Op. 50

Movie Description from YouTube

Symphony no 5, Op. 50 by Carl Nielsen Conductor: Leonard Bernstein Orchestra/Ensemble: New York Philharmonic Period: 20th Century Written: 1921-1922; Denmark Date of Recording: 04/1962 Venue: Manhattan Center, New York City Length: 33 Minutes 13 Secs. Bernstein's reading of the Fifth is also magnificent. For sheer excitement it has never been surpassed, particularly in the second movement, which is wildly uninhibited and urgent. In the first movement, outstanding work from the solo clarinet meets a pretty terrifying snare drum cadenza at the climax. Only the sonics, which relegate the timpani to the rear of--somewhere--let the show down a bit, but the drive and communicativeness of the music-making ultimately win the day. This is a great recording, plain and simple. In Danish music is nothing similar to Nielsen's 5th Symphony. It is deeply original, unorthodox, scary and exhilarating. The symphony is one of Nielsen's most abstract works, but it runs so clear that anyone can join. It will certainly be heard at any time in its entirety, so find a half hour of a peaceful moment. And be prepared that your peace will be disturbed! Out of the ruins. The world lay in ruins at that time in 1922, where the explosions from the first War still resounded in his ears. "There is not one of us is the same now as before the war," said Carl Nielsen to the press. At the same time, he had been through an exhausting separation with his wife. The world had changed, old solutions were useless. Now you had to think innovatively. The crushed idyll. In the fifth SymphonyCarl Nielsen leaving the tradition of a symphony have four movements. Instead, the two halves of the symphony. In the first the arena of a harrowing battle between peace and war. The music begins in infancy, undisturbed natural idyll. Gradually, one finds a snake in paradise. A march trample through the countryside. It culminates in an Armageddon in which a drum of any force trying to destroy the whole. A new world. The dark forces are destructive. On them you can not build. Therefore, traveling second rate on new ground. The music is full of Carl Nielsen's typical vitality. "The movement will be given free and unfolds," he explained while the second rate. Journey through the match ends in a luminous glow. Carl Nielsen's faith in mankind is so uplifting that you are exhilarated at the concert hall when the fifth Symphony has been played.
