| More about this video ... The last movement of Beethoven's last symphony, performed by the Philharmonia Baroque orchestra, directed by Nicholas McGegan. The chorus includes members of three choirs: the Philharmonia Chorale, directed by Bruce Lamott, San Francisco Choral Artists, directed by Magen Solomon, and the UC Berkeley Chamber Chorus, directed by Marika Kuzma. The soloists are soprano Lynne Dawson, mezzo-soprano Mary Phillips, tenor Iain Paton, and baritone Andrew Foster-Williams. This is the second version of this video. The first version had the tenor parts transposed by an octave (incorrectly). I apologize for having to remove the first version (and I thank the viewer who pointed out the error). There are more corrections to be made; I will be posting a "corrected" version on my "overflow" channel (musanim). The recording was licensed from Magnatune, where you can listen to or purchase it: magnatune.com The liner notes for the Magnatune album containing this recording are here: www.musanim.com In this graphical score, the notes of the string instruments are shown as rhombi, the brass and winds are colored rectangles, the percussion instruments are gray (from top to bottom: triangle, cymbals, timpani, bass drum), and the vocal parts are ellipses. The original version of this video will be available for purchase here in a few days: musanim.cerizmo.com |
