Title: ocd igor
Product review: when i get hooked on a piece of classical music, i tend to listen to every recording i can find until i find one i like.this is the one. and what do i like so much? the last measure of the 'symphony in three movements'. not movement, measure. that's a story in and of itself. the piece itself is stravinsky's farewell, in a way, to what made him so notorious as a composer. wonderfully bitter harmonies, trademark mixes of accents and meters, arresting orchestrations and a general sense of the panoramic in size and tone. this is a big work--almost like a movie score.rumor has it that some of it was written for a movie. much of the second movement's theme and orchestration was intended as underscoring to 'the song of bernadette'. now whether or not that's true, it may be impossible for some people to watch that film the same way again.
