I had the good fortune to hear this Godly creation since birth and maybe before. It was a favorite of my parents. I have never nor will ever tire of it. I'm 69 at this posting. This beloved work has been a celebration and refuge. I hope to hear this in the next phase of existence.

I was adopted from Romania. This touched a special place in my heart! It also has a stellar clarinet part! Lots of fun to play!

George Enescu, was a Romanian composer, violinist, pianist, conductor, and teacher. He is regarded by many as Romania's most important musician. 💖

Our orchestra performed this piece when I was in high school some 55 years ago. I've always been grateful that our director had enough faith in the ability of his students to perform music of this level. By the way, I was the first clarinet.

One of the most beautiful pieces of classical music. ♫ ♪

[hollybardoe]

Thanks for showing us your beautiful country.

[johnferguson]

I first heard this exciting piece when I was about 20 and now 55 years later I still LOVE it. It somehow makes my blood pump a bit faster.

The London Symphony Orchestra bc plays the ROMANIAN RHAPSODY No 1 like no one else. Most exciting beautiful orchestrated classical music ever., by composer George Enescu.

Extraordinary... supernatural... divine performance! True, sublime genius of Enescu coupled with stunning talent in the London Symphony under Antal Dorat. Thank you!

Cine simte românește este o piesă ce te face să și să râzi ! Iată cum e românul: figură tragică și jucăușă; face haz de necaz ! Genialul Enescu a sintetizat în aceste splendide acorduri scrise la vârsta de 18 ani, chintesența acestui neam. Păcat că imaginile nu sunt în acord cu muzica. Pt era ceaușistă merge altă muzica....

My late grandfather was born in Botoshani (Moldavia), and emigrated to Canada in 1916. I'd love to visit there. But this will do for now!

Quand j'était toute petite, ma Marraine la musique classique ... ce qui m'a amenée qu'à soixante et des ans ... c'est toujours le même bonheur d'entendre certaines Rhapsodies et celle-ci principalement ...

“Enesco était de ces êtres aux dons trop nombreux pour une seule existence. Il fut l’un des deux ou trois plus grands violonistes de sa ganération, le plus sensible, le plus profondément musical, un chef d’orchestre, un pianiste qui aurait acquis la même célébrité au clavier ou avec sa baguette qu’avec son archet s’il s’y était davantage consacré, un merveilleux professeur, d’une culture universelle, d’une noblesse d’âme que l’on retrouve chez son élève de prédilection, son fils artistique, Yehudi Menuhin ». (Lucien Rebatet)

[annecohen]

This is a true Romanian Rhapsody. And it fits to what rapture is defined as. No wonder this is one of the best Romanian Rhapsody ever. And I have a paternal cousin who’s married to a Romanian woman. This happened to be his second marriage after losing his first wife at a young age to a brain tumor (glioblastoma). So he never had kids.
