8 spiritual symphonies for 3 violins, 3 alts and 3 cello, OP. 3 (1974-75)

Ensemble "Northern Crown"

Conductor Yuri Nikolaevsky

Apostle Andrei Apostle Apostle Cathedral

Once the image arose of three triads, and it was necessary to write out the whole essay, which turned out to be increasingly tenacious, even surprisingly.

In general, the first three opuses appeared as an absolutely conscious development of the space of folk song (OP. 1), Russian speech (OP. 2) and church Russian singing (OP. 3). For that time (after all, I was only 20 years old or a little more) there were very fundamental achievements, and even now I think that they, in meaning and “energy”, block a lot of things I wrote later.

Actually, my material in the essay is very small, only in the 6th symphony. I worked with church chants as children's pictures for coloring. Therefore, I attribute the beauty of the composition more at the expense of these old melodies.

Even on the piano, I played the 1st spiritual symphony Yuri Alexandrovich Fortunatov, I remember his praise of the pyramidality of my composition, with a climax, chronometric, approximately in the middle. Unfortunately, fast parts (2, 7, 8) are very inferior in quality to the other.

Spiritual symphony 1

"Bless my Lord's soul"

This is the 103rd psalm. According to some interpretations, he describes the fertile life of paradise before the fall of a person, others say that it is a psalm for the creation of the world - one way or another, we hear a song about God, dressed with light as clothes, about the creation of spirits and fire of the glowing, about the creation of the earth and the abyss , about the sources flowing in the valleys, about plants and animals, about the moon and the sun, about man and his merry about the Lord. In the church service by the 103rd Psalm, Vespers begins, so about the middle of the symphony, I portray the gradual fading of the light, and in the last solo of violins-the last rays, the quiet sunset, the thoroughness of the soul, which has lived a hard day of the trouble that came to the new day in the hope of a new life On the New Earth.
