This wonderful symphony led me as a teenager into the wonders of classical music, which has always spoken to me of hope and beauty. What a master Rachmaninoff was!
Валерий Гергиев так молод и так самотверженно работает. Мне он нравится, как дирижёр, личность, директор оркестра и художественный руководитель проекта. Желаю ему сил, здоровья, терпения в работе с молодым составом оркестра, человеческого счастья и всего самого наилучшего. Благодарю вас, МАЭСТРО 🫶👍💯⚘️💐⚘️💐⚘️🩷
Sublime! You need the Mariinsky and Gergiev to give Rachmaninov justice. Only Russians can peel off the layers of Rachmaninov emotions so elegantly as this masterpiece
Imposible no ADORAR ..y Entregarse total a la Belleza tan Rusa y tan Universal q el Divino Genio del Eterno Maestro Serguei Rachmaninov..por siempre y Dirigido por
Здравствуйте! Это серия TV Концертов ,,Променад в Мариинском’’ в конце 90х годов. Timpanist-Sergey Antoshkin- его нет в живых уже давно. Меня зовут Михаил Песков,я на этом концерте играл на тарелках(platti) Очень многих из этого состава уже нет в живых, к великому сожалению...)))
This is excellent subtly and inwardly complex Rachmaninov, great pacing avoiding rush, an intelligent measured edge throughout even with a speedy second mov, manoeuvring around the welter and various levels impressively, some wrapt thinking here, cool and unflustered, keeping the listener engaged, possessed music making; Gergiev examples the light Russian approach similar to Rozhdestvensky with Glazunov; no score. Some of the entries are undersold but this is satisfying listening.
Trajan say what you want about the USSR and communism, but their economy was stagnant yet stable and they funded the arts. After it’s collapse the economy went down the toilet and the country was basically controlled by the mafia. There were shortages in the Soviet era but in the first few years of the federation things were even worse. Learn your history; freedom of press and trade is meaningless when everything else is in shit shape.
@@seymourtrac You're both right. It was the dawn of freedom and the time of high hopes. At the same time it was a troubled time. The Soviet planned economy was in huge trouble already, but now it was completely destroyed and everything started from scratch. Inflation was insane. People's life savings became worthless overnight. Most jobs paid miniscule wages. Old people got hit hard. Others who didn't have business inclinations were in huge trouble. Factories stopped paying workers. Miners were on perpetual strikes. After shortages of the Soviet 80s one could go to a store and see everything they could imagine for sale. But few could afford it. Crime spiked out of control. In the Soviet times most cops didn't even carry firearms. In the early 90s if you opened a small business you'd be guaranteed a visit from a local gang demanding "protection" money, and there was nothing you could about it - you either pay, or your business gets burned down or worse. 1992 was a tough year.
Hmm... Cuts in the last movement and that dreadful unwritten speeding up at the end. Not a fan of this one. Interesting to see that VG did at some point have something like a recognisable stick technique, though.
Completely correct about the final coda, in which the timpani have the melody and key rhythmic motif, and so the tempo has to be one in which the timpanist can make these figures clear and distinct.
that 52:46 omg. 'If you want to know what it is, he told himself, listen to the first phrases of Tchaikovsky’s First Concerto--or the last movement of Rachmaninoff’s Second. Men have not found the words for it, nor the deed nor the thought, but they have found the music.' - Ayn Rand
With this symphony Rachmaninoff seems to say "Yeah I can do this" this is in view of not only how much of a fiasco his 1st symphony was but also how deeply it affected him
And a baton, but one thing remained: self-indulgence and tastelessness masquerading as profundity. The Rhozhdestvenky version is the real deal: check it out on RUclips
@@willcwhite I once heard VG conduct very effectively a performance of Tchaikovsky's Mazeppa at the Met Opera, and a better than average one of Prokifiev's War and Peace. Essentially my jury is still out on VG, and so I was interested to see how he'd manage with the Symphony.
This symphony is totally empty to me. Whenever I try to get something out of it, I again find nothing. It is not the only work by Rachmaninoff that I feel this way about, although he is generally my favorite composer.
Origins of music unevidenced. Except it is gift to humanity from God the Creator. Music continues in heaven. Discontinues in hell. Jesus Christ came from heaven to earth for one purpose only - to die on cross for remissions of pre-existing sins of every single person and to resurrect. Jesus Christ providing forgiveness from pre-existing sins for every single person, salvation from eternity in hell and free entry to eternity in heaven for all who repent of sins in Jesus Christ. Other side of death is eternity. Eternity in hell. Or eternity in heaven through Jesus Christ. Penalty of pre-existing sins already paid by Jesus Christ on The Cross. Accept HIM. Be saved from eternal in hell. Enter heaven. Enjoy heavenly music. For free.
Sad. Music orchestra conductor turns out to be politically oriented and favored and picked by Putin to be the leading maestro of Russia. If Putin had been a better leader, Russia's glorious culture would have thrived even more, the people would have been even better cared for, and people would not be hoping to leave their own friends, families, culture, to try to look to the West to escape the poverty, oppression, and silencing of opinions that only benefit the Oligarchs and exceptionally corrupt Russia leadership. People don't want to be there. it's not the west or 'democracy' that matter - it is whether people have food on the table. Comparing Russia and China is not really logical - at least modern Chinese people, 350 millions or so have been lifted out of poverty. What has Russian done in the last 30 years under Putin's watch? People wanting to escape. And then a musical conductor sides with Putin. Boycott.
Joanna! Where is Rachmaninoff and where is Putin?? They are on different planets. Sorry, but music is eternal, and your stupidity is fleeting like the life of a fruit flies ..
This wonderful symphony led me as a teenager into the wonders of classical music, which has always spoken to me of hope and beauty. What a master Rachmaninoff was!
I doubt if this beautiful piece can be played any better than this. Gergiev conducts it here as if he wrote it himself! Brilliant.
Beautiful....my favorite symphony!
Me too!

Thanks for this
You can tell this is early Gergiev because he's using an actual baton.
Happily, he graduated to his dinner toothpick--- he's amazing-- watch him in rehearsals on Youube
This is simply stunning. A new experience to live.

lyrically the best i have ever heard 👍🧔🎶🎵🎺🎻🥁🎻🎷🎻
Какое счастье найти такую чудесную запись!!! Спасибо!
i love the way he conducts the second movement - he really loves this music.

お若い！しかも指揮棒を使っていらっしゃる！！割り箸でも指でもなく！！なんて貴重な映像なんだろうか！
Quintessentially romantic. Bravo!

III. Adagio 28:30
IV. Allegro vivace 42:42
thank you for this early Gergiev rarity.
La música dirigida por Valerie Gergiev es distinta.... es sublime....
Спасибо, очень цельная и внимательная интерпретация; сегодня, увы, подобного в исполнении маэстро можно услышать нечасто.
...А что ж вы хотите ....Молодость у всех --лучшее время !
Я думаю, сейчас тоже можно услышать и в общем-то не так уж редко . Если, конечно, маэстро не приезжает на концерт прямо из аэропорта.
Espectacular! Gracias
oh mine...... thanks a lot for uploading this rarity
Con una gran emoción rectifico : el Maestro sigue entre nosotros y Dios quiera que sea por muchos años.
Gracias por corregirme, Alfonso
Rachmaninoff was a true genius
18:41, John Malkovitch, moonlighting in his other career as a timpanist.
Maybe this was during his stint as being a puppeteer.

I will find out my first professor Kazakov A. of the first clarinet Mariinsky Theatre!
К великому сожалению Профессор Андрей Казаков(1й кларнетист) умер в Санкт Петербурге.
Царствие Ему небесное.
Great..
Dang; this was 1992. Such beautiful music for such a troubled time in Russian history.
You’re kidding right? The troubled times were between 1905 and 1990 especially post 1917. 1992 was the dawn of freedom.
Trajan say what you want about the USSR and communism, but their economy was stagnant yet stable and they funded the arts. After it’s collapse the economy went down the toilet and the country was basically controlled by the mafia.

Rachmaninow Symfonia N 2 op.27 Valery Gergiev dyryguje wspaniałą orkiestrą Teatru Maryjskiego w Petersburgu to są szczyty muzyki
El maestro muy joven, dirigiendo con batuta y siempre genial.
Siempre nos quedaran sus grabaciones.
RIP
Solo que Gergiev, a día de hoy, está aun vivito, coleando y, afortunadamente, dirigiendo.
@@drgustavbakter4735 jajajajajajaja
ANGEL... COMO DICE EL VULGO: AL CREERLO MUERTO, ¡LE DISTE MAS AÑOS DE VIDA!!!... EL GRAN MAESTRO SIGUE DIRIGIENDDO COMO LOS DIOSES...DEO GRATIAS.-
Si, QEPD
The images the music creates in my mind are far more interesting than photos of flowers and sunrises. This isn't a rock video 🤣
His Best TIME....!

у Рахманинова явный перегруз с музыкой, старался, видимо, как можно больше нот написать... надо бы подсократить где-то...
I really don't like the 2 cuts in fourth movement…The most beautiful parts
DA!
Это когда он был еще человеком, а не... небожителем.
Back when VG still used an adult baton.
So he had hair lol
And a baton, but one thing remained: self-indulgence and tastelessness masquerading as profundity. The Rhozhdestvenky version is the real deal: check it out on RUclips
That simphony ' s ""Peac of Cake" for ALL Russian conductors....except E.Mravinsky.....
@@zinam5795 I think he surpassed all the Russian conductors in this symphony . Except maybe Pletnev.
@@MrKlemps if you knew you disliked him so much already, why did you click on this video?

He had hair!
In 1992 Gergiev had a full beard. Was using a baton And conducted without a score.
To
day..no baton..a scruffy face and always has a score
Fuck this hits different. Gergiev plays with fire
Valery gergiev looks like mussorgsky
28:35 ~ 30:00
Ending visual effects are not only distracting, but also entirely unnecessary to "tell the story"! The camera people should be censored!
When he used his own baton...
god is real!!
So he does know how to conduct without toothpick
For the claim of the fact is with the existence of the god by the claimant.
52:37
оркестр долго разыгрывался, пришлось проматывать...
что за пузан за первым пультом, наверно еще и в шашлычной подрабатывает...
SLAVA UKRAINI!
Режиссёру по рукам бы настучать за эти пошлые вставки пейзажей, храмов и фоточек в самые напряженные моменты
2-рые скрипки здесь явно лишние, вообще штат музыкантов раздут, налицо какие-то махинации в оркестре...
This symphony is totally empty to me. Whenever I try to get something out of it, I again find nothing. It is not the only work by Rachmaninoff that I feel this way about, although he is generally my favorite composer.
That sounds like a you problem.
@@kngiht84 Problem? It is what it is.
Этот проводник поддерживает военные преступления.
11:21 rip violas off by a beat
Gergiev was one of my favorite conductors. Such a shame that he chose that thug Putin over the civilized world.
"Civilized" world?...:)
