In this video I discuss the somewhat overlooked Siciliana, and how it has influenced countless works.
A special thanks as always to musopen.org and imslp.org for offering free public domain sheet music and recordings online.

Bravissimo! Finalmente ho compreso "la siciliana", spesso trascurata e detta solo come una giga lenta. Ottime le immagini e il montaggio. E tutto molto chiaro. Thanks

One of the most beautiful forms : )

Thanks, this was really insightful. I would never have guessed that Stille Nacht is an example of the Siciliana!

Gotta love a good ol' siciliana. One of my favorites is the slow movement from Haydn's Symphony no. 81.

Another amazing video. I would like to see other forms, such as Tarantella and Gallop.

From what I can tell, the Galop has a similar rhythm to the polonaise and polka both, but is generally faster. And like a lot of polonaises, it tends to be packed with the rhythmic motive, especially in the A section. A trio is common to see, as is rondo form. Like the Polka, it’s generally in 2/4 or some kind of duple meter. Rhythmic motive for a Galop tends to be Dotted eighth Sixteenth

The Faure is a beautiful suite indeed.

What is the name of the suite? I’m trying to find it.

Great video with great examples, I find the Siciliana from Mozarts second piano sonata especially endearing.

A useful term to describe the use of stylistic elements in a new context is "musical topic" (somebody should also really get to making a video on that term). Topic theorists I've read also relate the siciliana rhythm and elements to pastoral genres, which are not melancholy at all (though the "pastoral" as style usually has less dotted rhythms).

Thank you so much, these videos are invaluable. Do you think you could do one on the barcarola and how it differs from the Siciliana?
@Hailey_Paige_1937 4 місяці тому
Hello! Would you be willing to make videos on Forms such as the Pavane, Forlane, Riggadun, Passacaglia, Toccata, and/or the Gigue? All of these seem like very interesting Forms that I’d love to learn more about!

I wrote a song two years ago something like similar to a Siciliana

Isn't there a Siciliana from an orchestral suite of Bach that is really quick and energetic?
@ellenharold5191 Рік тому
Is it like a barcarole or a lullaby?

This is the Serenata movement of Stravinsky’s Pulcinella Suite, which is a Neo-Baroque ballet suite.

I only know this beautiful piece by Matteo Carcassi. Interesting this has this backround, i tought "Siciliana" was only a song title. ukposts.info/have/v-deo/r2Shlnenrq6Cqmw.html

It's always funny as an italian to listen how foreigners pronounce italian names.

I'm sure you pronouncing certain English words is also funny haha.

What about the French? Btw, Musica Universalis, many respects and thanks! And you all pronounce these continental words very well. Except for " musette de cour". Please pronounce it like " coor". If " cur" it will sound like " coeur ( heart)", whereas you intend " cour (court)". All the best and keep on, please!

I don't know who is playing the Bach Siciliano here but it's very heavy handed. Galway often does that and plays Bach as if it's Romantic music. I prefer Rampal's sound. I play it a bit lighter myself; ukposts.info/have/v-deo/gmiei6-JsJqTtqc.html

I can’t use whatever recording I want, I often would prefer to use other recordings, but labels don’t seem to care about fair use laws, and UKposts content ID is very sophisticated.
