Desplat13 1 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 What is your favorite finale/culmination of themes? I mean the big last hurrah of a piece, the finalizing resolution, where the composer uses all the means at his disposal to move you after having prepared you through the rest of work. Film or classical music (or anything else).My favorite: Last three and a half minutes of the third movement of Rachmaninoff's 3rd concerto. In my opinion, probably the best three and a half minutes of music ever written.Colin Thomson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impossible to not get goose bumps listening to those last few mins, especially as a culmination. And the absolute best recording of this 3rd movement is Kissin with Ozawa and the Boston Symphony on RCA. His 1st movement is painfully slow, but nothing tops his 3rd movement.

Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 The Phantom of the OperaYay! I'm glad to see someone else appreciates the amazing conclusion to this show....from the "Masquerade" music box at the start of the finale, to the reprise of "All I Ask of You," to the final glorious orchestral outburst of "Music of the Night" ending with that wonderfully strange chord progression, it's a great wrap-up to the story.What first came to mind as far as film scores are concerned was E.T. Yeah, it's obvious, but it's a hugely emotional catharsis that serves as an immensely satisfying payoff in terms of sheer exhilaration and thematic conclusion, with the buildup of the main flying theme to the "rainbow trumpets" leading into the final, grand horn statement of the "alien" theme.

pi 0 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I actually played the C and D Minor Rachmaninoff Concerti a few years ago. Hardest part is that little super fast Eb scherzo in the 3rd movement. I think I have just about every single recording released of the Rachmaninoff, the best by far is the Volodos. Also the Liev Ove Andnes is great. Both are sensational live peformances.Ive seen it live a bunch of times all over the US, gives me the chills after that last note. The andre watts is unique because the finale he takes the closing riff in eights not triplet quarter notes. But he also has a few cuts that he takes.Martha Agerich has the fastest tempo of the third movement.Not a fan of the And I hate when they take the short cadenza (my teacher made me) in the first movement. The story goes Rachmaninoff wrote the long huge one first, it wouldnt fit on the record so then he wrote the short one.Ok sorry - huge Rach fan, I have played most all of his music. Also love the Throne Room Finale of Star wars into the end credits, pretty exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His transcriptions are amazing, but his Rach stuff didn't impress me. I agree on Argerich. Fastest tempo, but it does nothing for me. I have not heard Liev Ove Andnes's recording.What are your thoughts on Kissin's live recording with Ozawa? If can look past his painfully slow 1st movement, it's amazing. He takes all the ridiculous "ossia" passages, including one that is pure insanity (to do it live boggles my mind). And as far as the end of the 3rd movement, I can't think of any rival.

The old staging here (which is in the process of being replaced, though the new GD won't premiere until next season) just had the props vanishing from the stage, leaving just the Rhine in red light and nothing happening during the entire coda. Rather anticlimactic, but not nearly as lame as the Stuttgart staging I once saw on TV: There the lights apparently just went off at the beginning of the coda. The TV broadcast then displayed Wagner's staging instructions as a scrolling text, but my impression was that the actual staging just was nothing but blackness. Sometimes I really wonder if directors believe Wagner just wrote lengthy instructions so they could completely disregard them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand deviating from the instructions from time to time to give a fresh perspective - but the finale is supposed to be this huge, epic event. I'd feel pretty cheated by something like what you described if I paid to attend those productions. I'd really love to attend this opera, if not all of them, the next time the New York Met puts on a production of it...so I really genuinly hope they don't do something like that!

SeekUYoda 0 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Finale 2001, I guess because I memorized all the keyboard shortcuts and everything was super-fast. But when I upgraded to 2007 & 2008 I got all the Garritan sounds, so maybe that's my favorite?Oh, wait. The other kind of finale. Being a horn player, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the finale of Beethoven 7. There's a great story about a horn player getting out of a speeding ticket because he was listening to Beethoven 7 and was so excited that he was driving too fast. The officer listened to some of it and let him go! I definitely agree about the end of Phantom. It's amazing. And the end of Les Mis is fantastic too!Another one that no one's mentioned is the end of the 2nd movement of Brahms 2nd symphony. Hear it live if you can, and with string bass players who have the extension on their low string so they get the low C. The whole thing is in E, but there's a C major chord near the end that's absolutely heart-wrenching. I think it might be the only C major in the whole movement, and when the basses can go down to that C (instead of up the octave) you can literally feel the sound.
