I have been lucky enough to sing this amazing piece with Muti but many years ago and its tricky entries in the last movement. The quiet finale is just SO beautiful I found that I got an emotional lump in the throat, even during rehearsal and had to stop enjoying the gentle dissonant grazes as the voices and instruments come together in that lovely close harmony! Ah, the musical genius of Stravinsky!

This is one of the highlights of the neoclassical period of Igor Stravinsky. The religgious music has always inspired him. Hr will reach the apex of his religious inspiration during his final serial period.

The pacing of this performance evidently does not please some in the comments but is remarkably similar to the composers own in the two extant recording. Muti was always a very precise conductor and this great work requires precision, especially in the chorus. Where Muti really excels here is in his slight, subtle emphasis of woodwind near dissonance against the choir because he achieves the harmonic unity of the whole demanding work of genius. Excellent in every way.

Specifically, the psalms Stravinsky used for this symphony were these: Hear my prayer, O Lord, and with Thine ears consider my calling: hold not Thy peace at my tears. For I am a stranger with Thee: and a sojourner, as all my fathers were. O spare me a little that I may recover my strength: before I go hence and be no more. (Psalm 38) I waited patiently for the Lord: and He inclined unto me, and heard my calling. He brought me also out of the horrible pit, out of the mire and clay. and set my feet upon the rock, and ordered my goings. And He hath put a new song in my mouth: even a thanksgiving unto our God. Many shall see it and fear: and shall put their trust in the Lord. (Psalm 39) Alleluja. Praise God in His sanctuary: Praise Him in the firmament of His power. Praise Him for His mighty acts: Praise Him according to His excellent greatness. Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet: Praise Him with the timbrel and dance. Praise Him with stringed instruments and organs. Praise Him upon the high sounding cymbals, Praise Him upon the loud cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Alleluja. (Psalm 150)

This is one of the great works that I associate with my late conducting teacher Joseph Flummerfelt (at Westminster Choir College). We studied it in conducting class very intensely,, including detailed analysis and philosophical discussion, and sang it in performance as members of Westminster Symphonic Choir. I don't remember which orchestra we sang it with-- perhaps NJ Philharmonic or Juilliard Symphony. Amazing experience. I sang this in a performance conducted by the great oboist Heinz Holliger, and wondered whether the solo oboe felt a lot of pressure playing it for Holliger. Who are the performers in this video? I would have preferred a somewhat narrower vibrato throughout, closer to straight tone but with a shimmer. The choir needs to be rhythmically more precise and crisp. Use the quality of the wind instruments as a guide.

That is wrong, Ian. Stravinsky looked down on conductors and was furious when they took liberties from the text. He really wanted his pieces performed EXACTLY AS WRITTEN. This made him unique as a composer. He was a specific person, with a specific M.O. for doing things. He also hated being called "Igor." And loved honey, apparently. lol

My mother heard Stravinsky conduct this with the San Francisco Symphony. She told me that she had an out-of-body experience while listening to it. I believe that an out-of-body experience is purely psychological, not "real" ... but I'm quite sure she definitely had it ... and I think it's pretty obvious which part of the music she must have had it during.

Very good performance.... maybe it is the recording, but the choir seems too big to me, it sounds fat and wobbly, and dominates the orchestra where it should only form half of the sound mass. The tempi are very good. The last episode - Laudate - is quite strange music, because it does not express any 'laudate' at all but a tired, resigned longing. The work is a masterpiece of an imagined 'byzantine' church music - on latin texts, which is impossible of course, if byzantine it would be Greek. All in all, an incredible feat of the imagination and personal sound creation. Especially the concluding chord is a brilliant idea: everything is a doubling of one tone in octaves, topped by one single flute who plays the third. The effect is of some 'granite' wall.
