    Oh my Gosh! This video makes me want to get back in time to live those days again! Karajan... the legend, the king! With the best ever orchestra of all. the sound this Berlin Orchestra produces during Karajan's time is unsurpassed. I haven't heard this homogeneous, heavenly sound anywhere else. Probably never more.

      To be a conductor one has to make eye contact with every member of the orchestra. This man does nothing of the sort. It is crucial and vital to the rlelationship between conductor and orchestra. You cannot have had any experience of playing in an orchestra to say what you have..

      In any case, Karajan carefully read Miyamoto Musashi's tactics of war "The Book of Five Rings" in Japan, when aiming at the possibility of performing the orchestra as a democratic "my hand soldier". you all don't know Before that, there is Eugen Herrigel's "Archery and Zen".
      As a conductor, it is a very mental challenge. In short, "whether it's genuine or not" and "the difference in talent between his compositions, his pursuit of existence with the composer, but or(more😆) the superficiality of his self-frivolous expression as a hypocritical conductor."

    Absolutely STUNNING!!! What a Master of the score. I always used to purchase Karajan's records when I was younger and studying reading orchestral scores and studying conducting on my own!!! Cannot say how much I loved this "REHEARSAL???" What a surprise it was to see (and hear) a younger very-talented James Galway! This Dvorak Symphony No. 8 and Berlin Philharmonic are like a fine wine and are two of my musical favorites in life. Combined with Karajan, it is the trifecta of happiness. Such beauty in tone perfection and ensemble! Paul Martin

    It was around the time of the honeymoon when the relationship with the Berlin Philharmoniker was the best. On the same level as the Vienna Philharmonic when Dr.Böhm conducts, however, this orchestra was truly a democratic, synergistic and sublime global international group of professionals under Karajan.
    Chef, Maestro Karajan had been planning those things.
    Of particular note is the fluent precision of phrasing and the functional beauty and depth of articulation. We can't listen it in other performances. even now.
    The freshness is extremely high.
    Conducting baton technique and drawing lines are also unique to Maestro Karajan. Clearly intelligent and skillful towing direction and balance.
    All complete memorization.
    Real professional.
    The Genuine of Genuine.
    Undoubtedly, the members of the orchestra are going to also individual, completely memorized level.😳😱
    Karajan and BPh are all in a completely memorize state. After that, reconfirm the nuance expression.
    Just fly what the core means with a living organic vitality.
    The production that brings life is waiting.
    This philosophical aggregation!
    “…Now it's almost gone nowhere in the world. The stage is far from the chemistry of its philosophical integration and is becoming a mere Amusement Show that only butter up to Audience by psychological camouflage glamor because of its conductor's mental fragility.” I'm worried about it.
    In any case, This is the real thing.
    Karajan and BPh were Real much Genuines this time!
    Bouquets for Karajan’s ally, Dr.Böhm and WPh as well!💐

    @noc2_art 6 лет назад +10

    Karajan enjoyed many visits to Japan where he loved to take his BPO and especially due to his close friendship with the founder and then head of Sony Corporation, Akio Morita. This here is most probably a final dress rehearsal before the main event. Such rehearsals were held usually to see whether if the orchestra completely absorbed what was asked of them by the conductor. Karajan seemingly intended this concert to be as fine as one of his recordings which is probably why he organized the orchestra for a last minute fine-tuning of his interpretation of the pieces in the program. These were his golden years when he was at the apex of his illustrious career. The level of perfection is mind boggling in almost all his work pertaining to this period.

    LOVE every minute of this, but I'd give the slight edge to Karajan's 1980s digital recording (and accompanying Telemondial video) of this piece with the VPO. Mind you, I wonder how the concert proper sounded.

    • @IrishVader
      @IrishVader  10 лет назад +4

      Yeah, this sounds like it would be a bit too homogeneous a performance for my liking. His interpretation with the VPO on Decca ( goo.gl/ZgfQXm ) from the late 50's/early 60's is imo his best, he really lets the horns etc really "play out" and generally sounds alot more "rustic"

    • @TheVaughan5
      @TheVaughan5 8 лет назад +2

      +Michael Callaghan Yes, the recording you refer to dates from around 1965 and is BY FAR the finest I've ever heard. Decca transferred it to c.d. some years back but it lost a lot of the beautiful warm sound that the l.p. produced. It deserves a better transfer.

      I'd have thought that if it was a dress rehearsal for a TV broadcast that the TV company might have asked for concert dress to check details of lighting etc. 1973 was a long time ago and fewer concerts got televised back then, so this would have been a special event!

    • @DTQvideo
      @DTQvideo 3 года назад

      He wanted a pianissimo ... and the explanation is the reaction of the concertmaster and colleagues around him that can be seen in the following moments. Karajan's gesture was inappropriate and unnecessary

      @@alexmurphy8024 The concertmaster commented on Karajan's gesture and as far as I understand, everyone was of the same opinion ... I am also a concertmaster, so I know facial expressions well. I am also familiar with the relationship between conductor and orchestra. Karajan seems very tense and inaccessible to me here and the gesture is absolutely rude. This gesture was unnecessary and the proof is that the first violins did not react. With friendly musical communication, the maestro would achieve everything and this is how he got resistance! Otherwise, in the 8th symphony, the "echo" effect is traditionally performed at that place. The phrase that is played aloud for the first time is later echoed in response - quietly and in a different color. It's nice and interesting. Such gestures are forcing dogs who want to steal a sausage!

      @IrishVader  10 лет назад +18

      Yes it is. A very rare appearance on camera, something to do I think with Karajan's insistence that all the musicians have no beards/facial hair. Probably to avoid the orchestra looking like the orchestras of times gone by, where you would be in the minority if you didn't have a beard.

    • @lsbrother
      @lsbrother 8 лет назад +1

      The flautist, Galway I think, at 3:15, has a beard. Maybe that was why he left in 75! Oh and Clarinetist at 3:42 has a moustache! Can't have been a very strict rule! And violinist at 6:10 (bottom right, wait for him to turn head) has a beard!
      You made that up didn't you?!

    • @IrishVader
      @IrishVader  8 лет назад +5

      Haha, no. I believe it applied to players who were most likely going to be the principal focus in a shot of the orchestra. So, principal players, the rule was the most observed. I think Galway left principally to pursue a solo career - this would obviously clash with Karajan's methods of not keeping a schedule, to which the players could not work around to do their own work in a major way.

      It's really strange. I've watched other videos of HvK and the BPO rehearsing and they're wearing tie and tails. Either they were the only orchestra on planet earth to routinely rehearse in concert dress ( which would be mightily peculiar) or they were the only orchestra to do a full rehearsal 15 minutes before the audience were admitted ( which would be equally peculiar). Maybe someone knows?
