Composer Alexander Litvinovsky worked on the suite ‘Pelléas and Mélisande’ in the summer of 2021. His score became the embodiment of the figurative content of the play of the same name by the classic of Belgian literature Maris Maeterlinck. At one time, Alexander Litvinovsky wrote music for the theatrical performance 'Pelléas and Melisande'. The successful artistic result inspired a new idea: on the basis of this musical material the composer decided to create a suite for a string orchestra. However, the deepening into the symbolism of Maeterlinck's play led Alexander Litvinovsky to the need to carefully rework the finished numbers, expand the dramatic context and, in fact, write a new, independent orchestral work.
In the history of ‘Pelléas da Mélisande’ there is a lot of mystical, encrypted, unsaid. The fictional kingdom of Alemond exists outside of a certain era, outside of reality and time. The strange and infantile characters in the play live in their own temporal dimension. The events are driven not by the actions of the heroes, but by their reflections, spontaneous impressions, reasoning, exchange of emotions, clarification of relationships.
The orchestral embodiment of the imaginative world of such a drama demanded professional ingenuity and virtuoso skill from the composer, who strove to avoid monotony and static in the new suite. He embodied in music an active internal plot, gave dynamism, alternating tempos and rhythms, timbre nuances, sound colors of modes, tonalities, creating an amazing theatricality of effective episodes and a genre variety of ancient dances.
The author of the suite 'Pelléas and Mélisande' does not seek to experiment with the latest musical techniques, he is interested in maximizing the singing nature of string instruments, the beauty of sound recording, which helps to reveal the emotional purity of the images of the embodied plot. And connoisseurs of Alexander Litvinovsky's work will recognize his bright, attractive author's style, which combines elements of baroque, romantic and postmodern music.

There is hope for contemporary music.
Alexander Litvinovsky was born in 1962 in Minsk, Belarus. He graduated from the Belarusian Academy of Music in 1987 and received a postgraduate degree in 1991. His music is influenced by Strawinsky, but also by the music of the Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods, and therefore ranges from traditional to avant-garde. Grateful to the channel for posting such great art.
I didn't know it's possible to fall in love with classical music even more
He is a master of modern classical music. I love his stuff.

Same, we can't get enough of it! His music is just too good and the Metamorphose String Orchestra interprets it in such a brilliant and expressive way 🥰
too often the new-classical (not really neo-classical) music is too simple in its melodies, too predictable in its harmonies, rhythms, and dynamics. this is most definitely not! i love music that draws me into thought, not that lulls me into an emotional stupor or even sleep. i am very grateful to you at Halidon for introducing me to Litvinovski's œuvres.
I am a musician. I have been playing folk / rock and roll guitar for 40 years. In the past 5 years I have just gotten into classical music and I'm falling in love with it. This site is truly a godsend for me.

Hi Sam. I'm a jazz historian (82 y.o.), played some drums in the sixties (what a magnificent decade that was !). Started listening to jazz at 15 y.o. though I was keeping an attentive ear to classical music (my first love: Rachmaninov's piano con. N° 2). Then when I reached roughly 65, something clicked into my mind and if upto this age the listening ratio of jazz vs. classical was 70% to 30%, now it is 10% to 90%. I suspect this could be due to ageing. Be as it may, it raises some thinking doesn't it? Keep discovering new pieces as some of them will mesmerise you.

If I had one critique, it would be the applause at fairly random points throughout. Can understand audience members being swept up in the moment, but I'd love to have this performance of the suite with those "interruptions" edited out.
Litvinovsky's work is just… what's the word? Sublime? Exquisite? Ranging somewhere in there. Thanks for exposing me to his work, Halidon!
Alexander Litvinovsky wurde 1962 in Minsk, Weißrussland, geboren. Er schloss 1987 sein Studium an der Weißrussischen Musikakademie ab und erhielt 1991 ein Aufbaustudium. Seine Musik ist von Strawinsky, aber auch von der Musik des Barock, der Klassik und der Romantik beeinflusst und reicht daher von traditionell bis avantgardistisch. Ich bin dem Kanal dankbar, dass er so großartige Kunst gepostet hat.
This sounds and feels like the musical embodiment of what the world needs right now

Sua música é influenciada por Strawinsky, mas também pela música dos períodos barroco, clássico e romântico, e, portanto, varia do tradicional à vanguarda.

Beautiful music. Can you tell me where does this Strings Orchestra reside?
Does anyone know if there are any interviews with Alexander Litvinovsky?
I am not a fan of classical music. The only way I enjoy it is if it has been in a film that I love. But this - especially movement III - was incredible.
7:23
Where did this performance take place?
I don't understand the cameraman's choice not to frame the musicians playing the solo. What a shame, bad choice.
The conductor flops his hands around too much. Annoying. He doesn't even keep the beat of the music. Just flopsy wopsy.
