Fluent in German, Hungarian, and English. Charismatic. An amazing pianist even late into his career.. Always bringing powerful sounds from the Orchestra.
Quite amazing how he talks while they’re playing (very efficient), and gives his verbal exhortations just BEFORE they get to that bit so they know right beforehand how he wants it.
Talking while rehearsing is normal, as you don´t want to interrupt the whole thing permanently. You only interrupt if there´s a real serious mistake or wrong interpretation or the whole orchestra is involved in that particular part that you want to correct or improve. In general rehearsal time is precious time and you gotta be very productive.
He was so feared for his attention to the minutest detail. The bowing technique, the amount of vibrato, the millisecond breath of rest, etc. But he wasn't stingy in his praise, as you could well observe.
As an insight into the work itself it is simply priceless. Nothing escapes Solti's mastery. Thank you very much for taking the trouble to bring it to us.
Had the great pleasure of playing extra horn and wagner tuba with Solti and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Most memorable was Bruckner 7 at Royal Albert Hall.
The greatest conductors were the accomplished pianists/accompanists-they felt every expressive gesture in the body. But such demanding music... Pause!!!
Magnificent.This is what conducting is about, not just waving your arms. He knows every bar, hears every instrument, leads the players towards his total vision.
I know im asking randomly but does anybody know of a method to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost my login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me
@Franco Brecken I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
I met Solti after a San Francisco Symphony concert in 1997 (where Van Cliburn played Tchaikovsky's First Concerto). On the podium he was the same energetic, powerful figure familiar to all, but after the concert in his dressing room he looked very tired and frail. He died a few months later. RIP.
The conductor is the only one in the orchestra who can perceive the piece of music in its entirety. The orchestra musician has no chance in that. The conductor plays the instrument orchestra. He is thus the first overall musician in the orchestra and plays the keyboard of all musical instruments. It could be like this. Resi from Austria.
What a fabulous record of a wonderful conductor sharing his vision and technique in getting an orchestra to perform exactly the way he wants them to. It is this what distinguishes one performance from another - and makes a Solti performance so distinct from his contempories who of course have their own styles. It is subjective, some don't enjoy this interpretation over another but that is why we continually have new recordings and ways of presenting the music. For those that think the talking is annoying or somehow dis-respectful of the orchestra - how wrong you are! This is what a rehearsal is about - not to just play the notes but extract the essence of emotion and techniques the conductor wants to project that emotion. A different conductor may want a more languid approach, Solti was always precise and clipped unless the score explicitly said otherwise. It's a masterclass - even for the veterans of the orchestra - and for many it's great to have a conductor who truly inhabits the music instead of just perfunctorily marking time for everyone. Solti was a renouned Wagnerian and you can see why with this recording. The only one of his contempories I would put on the same level was Karl Bohm.
Routemaster: Correct in every way. A conductor who is so-called "respectful" to the orchestra- If that conductor can't communicate to them something that the orchestra doesn't already know and regularly performs- then that conductor should quit his job and go find honest work.
I wish younger, upcoming conductors had the insight and ability to communicate it clearly to the orchestra what they desire. Maybe I am wrong, but conductors like Currentzis or Makella, just don't seem to "get" this music.
Like all great conductors: it can ALWAYS be better, super detailed, knows the music inside out. Utterly amazing. I had tickets to see him conduct the Dallas Symphony (he was music director there briefly in the early 60's and this was his first time back). The orchestra had really grown up and has a magnificent concert hall - one of the best anywhere - the Meyerson. I was so looking forward to it. But sadly Solti went to his Great Performance and did not come. I always heard that rehearsals were a beast with him, super hard work, but that he was completely joyful and up beat for the performance.
Very impressed. I love the way Solti talks to the musicians while they are playing. It's so annoying when conductors stop the orchestra to give instructions.
I don't know if nowadays conductors can work like this...I know a conductor who told Me that rehearsals are expensive so not much time are left for working in detalis like here.I love Solit's way to work and communicate with the orchestra members: precise and with respect and gratitude for every time they play like He demand it. I learn a lot watching this..Thank You for posting this!:)
En tant que comédienne j'ai regardé et écouté les indications de Georg Solti avec un intérêt incroyable . Passionnée tout au.long de la répétition. Magistrale démonstration rapport avec les musiciens évident et clair dans ses objectifs. Vidéo de grande qualité. Merci.
As a conductor, I can tell you that we actually can work like this. The problem is, there is no time. This video is from an era when rehearsals had no 'end' time. Today, everything is measured to the tip. We have to pick and choose what we want to do. It's frustrating and heartbreaking.
Just incredible how these great Maestros can control all these incredible musicians and know precisely what he wants to hear and how the piece should be laid. Pure Genius!
He's a Hungarian rehearsing a German orchestra in their own back yard in standard repetoire which they know blindfold yet the level of rehearsal detail he goes into is remarkable. I also never fail to be impressed by the number of top line symphony orchestras in Germany. To my shame I'd never even heard of the " South German Radio Symphony Orchestra" before yet the fact they could attract someone of of Solti's calibre to guest conduct speaks volumes.
Phillipe Coock Every big TV/radio-station in Germany has it´s own symphony orchestra and as they are paying good money those orchestras are one of the favored aims of real good musicians. And by contrast to the opera house orchestras they have less rehearsals and concerts, what means more free time which some use for relaxing and others to teach students and make even more money. All in all those jobs are pretty privileged.
That orchestra is one of Germanys best. And yes, no country has as many top orchestras. The U.S. is second. We've lots of good ones here. It's just that few people listen to them.
How different from Karajan. What the latter achieves with charisma and charm, Georg Solti achieves with this ardent and intense enthusiasm. Yet both in their own way completely dominate the orchestra while conveying their vision.
My God ... I honestly never knew just how tough he could be in the rehearsal room; but then come performance time, he could almost relax, as he knew the orchestra would come through with the _exact_ sound he was after ...
the violinist Victor Aitay said, "Usually conductors are relaxed at rehearsals and tense at the concerts. Solti is the reverse. He is very tense at rehearsals, which makes us concentrate, but relaxed during the performance, which is a great asset to the orchestra."
Mein Gott Solti was such a genius and a very pleasant man. What I'd give to have worked with a genius like him. I used to think I had a bit of a decent ear, but he's one a level I'll never attain, but at least I get to listen to his genius thanks to recordings, and especially a gold nugget like this video. This is a great channel to subscribe to and support - where else can you find a rehearsal of Solti?
I would rate Barenboim his equal or better. Listen to the CSO under Barenboim do the Wagner overtures and preludes. Also his Tannhauser with the Berlin Stattskappel.
I so understand the perfection of the language, not the expectation of the music in the Germanic mind. I married into it but I am American/European so the expectations were lower. LOL. I love a Genius and Solti is that.
Melissa Schroeter except that Solti completed all his studies at the Liszt Academy in Budapest. Born and raised in Hungary until the rise of the Nazi’s forced him to leave because of the persecution of the Jews. Pretty much the entire Jewish population in Hungary was wiped out. Studied under Bela Bartok amongst others. There is a lovely rehearsal space at the academy names after him. The attention to musical detail and musical perfection is a Hungarian trait - I experienced it with every teacher when I studied over there for a year. They expect the best from you all the time.
People have little to none in knowing just what goes on in rehearsals and in the coming together of such music and ensembles like this. Its far far more complex than what anyone realizes.
The transformation from beggining timidity to the sound at about 39 minutes is amazing. The orchestra almost doesnt sound the same.... I see Fuhrtwangler in his conducting. I also like how he jokes with the orchestra. He also praises them even when hes habing to correct things.
I agree. The “transformation” you refer to is happening because the orchestra is truly recreating the score. This occurs under the leadership of the great conductors, like Solti, and Fuhrtwangler. Both conductors had their own unique style of stick technique. They always knew the score, and demanded precision from the orchestra. I find it interesting that Sir Georg podium style between the rehearsals, and the performance, doesn’t vary much. A bit more fervor in the performance, to convey what he wants, probably because he can’t do so verbally. Truly, one of the finest conductors, ever.
@@halross3447 yes, as an orchestral musician with a degree in music you dont need to tell me what the transformation is. What I am commenting on is how much Solti brings them from one level to another fom first rehearsal to performance. Technically in the first rehearsal they are "recreating the score" as well. Solti qas a master, but he was alao a tyrant on the podium, much like George Szell and Arturro Toscanini, and Furhtwangler were.
Solti vereint Kraft, Dynamik und Eleganz. Das gelingt nicht vielen! Ein vollkommen klarer und verständlicher Dirigent in den Proben. Eindeutige Ansage plus Gestik. Ein Glück mit ihm arbeiten zu können für viele Orchester. Im Vergleich mit manch Anderen, die eine tolle show aufführen oder sich mit einem mythischen Geheimnis umgeben und das Orchester rumrätseln lassen, hervorragend. Wo ist der complette "Ring" mit Solti???
Era un director completo Dinámico, con gran motivación, detallista y carismático para guiar una orquesta. Era todo un artista en la extensión de la palabra.
Never liked him (his music making) much. But here, his presence, energy and passion are intoxicating. Not to mention the way he communicates with his forces. Great!
@@Teladian2 It is only formal if your standards are 0. All the best music was written by, and played by, men who wore jackets and ties. And orchestras still mostly wear evening dress for performances.
@@karldelavigne8134 no, its formal because its formal. How dare you say I have no standards, what a small little life you must have that the way people dress bothers you so. Also, more and more orchestras are moving away from formal wear to pkay. It's restrictive and hinders freedom of movement, proper breathing, as well as makes it exceedingly difficult to play. I know I play with three ensembles and all of them are loosening their dress codes. I will also point out that you say men, well I hate to break it to you but at least 50% of orchestras and enables are WOMEN now. So Im sure your uptight, white, patriarchal view thinks that they shoupdnt be there either. No? Time to totter off into antiquity old man
@@Teladian2 If you read my comment again, you will notice I used the past tense. Of course there are women composers and orchestral players today, but I was referring to the corpus of most classical music. I have come across your type of bullying before. It usually comes from people who are very uncomfortable in their own skin. You were the one who was bothered by the way people dress, because you assume your standards and preferences are universal. In fact, your observation is gauche, culturally illiterate, and narrow-minded. So, allow me to release a very large yawn at juvenile insults.
@Steven Moore. Yes I agree if you look beyond the over-hyped there is some real talent today but Solti had a dynamic approach which ensured his music making was never dull or routine and often unbelievably thrilling.
There are many videos of the 60s Stuttgart rehearsal (Solti, Scherchen, Kleiber, Celibidache, Neumann, Fricsay). Does anybody know if Stuttgart making a series of reherarsal videos or something?
Faszinierend zu sehen wie Solti strikt klare Anweisungen gibt, zu verstehen gib wer hier das Kommando hat, und was er möchte, jedoch immer höflich und respektvoll bleibt. Diese Mischung ist unter anderem die wahre Gabe eines großen Dirigenten.
Nach allem was ich so über ihn gelesen habe wurde er im späteren Leben schwieriger. Je mehr er seiner Machtposition bewusst wurde, desto mehr Bestand er auf seinen Ansichten, koste es was es wolle. Und da war er dann auch nicht mehr angenehm.
Ich mag seinen Wagner Stil sehr.. Aber beim Proben redet er oft schon rein und erklärt bevor irgendwas passiert ist bzw. er gehört hat was sie überhaupt spielen 😄
Chopin?! C'mon bro. Chopin made this list squarely on name recognition and not the quality of the compositions. I would gladly substitute the 2 piano concertos and Konzertstuck of Weber in place of the Chopin.
Un genio, un crack, un loco, un entusiasta, un maestro sin par, un dictador, alquilen que corre en formula uno, brrr, rrrrr, ahhhh ajjjj. Me pone nerviosa, electricidad en las piernas, me rasco la cabeza. Soy yo dando clase? Acabarán agotado. Cuanta energía!!!!
Very different to how orchestra rehearses these days. And what a leap in terms of technique and quality we have achieved compared to what they had then.
Fluent in German, Hungarian, and English. Charismatic. An amazing pianist even late into his career.. Always bringing powerful sounds from the Orchestra.
Fantastic. He looks like an engineer fine tuning the engine of a Rolls-Royce. Superb...
This is by far the most interesting video I've seen for a long long time. I'm in awe.
Thrond I know, right? Amazing. If you haven’t already, check out the videos of Karajan rehearsing Schumann.
Even though I don't understand the language (German), I understand him. This is very interesting
I'm beginning to understand how decisive it is for a conductor that he can sing.
So much can be learned just by viewing this. This piece of music now has so much depth to me. Almost everything from Solti is never boring.
Boyer Barner Completely!
I agree completely
Quite amazing how he talks while they’re playing (very efficient), and gives his verbal exhortations just BEFORE they get to that bit so they know right beforehand how he wants it.

But such demanding music...
Pause!!!

I'm so glad there's another person who understands how brilliant and talented you must be to be a good conductor

Thanks so much, you saved my account!
The Chicago Symphony Orchestra were very fortunate to have this brilliant conductor for many years.
One of my favorite operatic recordings is Berlioz's "The Damnation of Faust" conducted by Solti with the CSO for Decca.
Yes! We were! He was a genius in music and conducting!
Solti lives every bar, every sound! It is unbelievably beautiful as he can transit his feelings to the orchestra!
I met Solti after a San Francisco Symphony concert in 1997 (where Van Cliburn played Tchaikovsky's First Concerto). On the podium he was the same energetic, powerful figure familiar to all, but after the concert in his dressing room he looked very tired and frail. He died a few months later.

Yes Riccardo Muti seems like that. Like he thinks he needs to correct everyone. Solti seems like he'd be great to work with
@Kanishk Nishar yes, that's how I knew about how orchestral musicians think
I've heard he ciuld be very difficult to work with but you don't see that in this video.
I don't speak German yet it seems I'm comprehending what he's asking and saying , what a amazing man
The IRREPLACEABLE, Sir George Solti.😪
Solti is pure Hungarian - he shows what he wants by singing it.
Solti made the Chicago Symphony the greatest in the world 1970 to 1990.
I don't know if nowadays conductors can work like this...I know a conductor who told Me that rehearsals are expensive so not much time are left for working in detalis like here.I love Solit's way to work and communicate with the orchestra members: precise and with respect and gratitude for every time they play like He demand it.

Herrmann Baumann IST superb!!!
In der Tat!
How these legendary Conductors know every note and every instrument better than the artist musicians (all prodigies) themselves is amazing!
How different from Karajan. What the latter achieves with charisma and charm, Georg Solti achieves with this ardent and intense enthusiasm. Yet both in their own way completely dominate the orchestra while conveying their vision.
Yes! Very different styles of rehearsing/conducting....and yet achieve amazing sounds with many Orchestras.
A great conductor is also a great teacher. Fantastic.

@@guarrho
Hence why he was such a great conductor; perhaps equal to Richter, and even better than von Karajan ...
Ooo that violin part at 40:33 is just murder to play accurately and together.
Like Celibidache said: "There are millions of NO but only ONE yes."
Mein Gott Solti was such a genius and a very pleasant man. What I'd give to have worked with a genius like him.

My favorite Wagner-conductor. His vision on Wagners operas is unsurpassed.
I would rate Barenboim his equal or better. Listen to the CSO under Barenboim do the Wagner overtures and preludes. Also his Tannhauser with the Berlin Stattskappel.
The Solti´s energy and brilliance that puts in his way of conducting, is ongly far to Arturo Toscanini.@@peterwolf5718
I totally agree. Solti's Ring Des Nibelungen is my all time favorite. Magnificent!

GRAANDIOOOSOO!!!Qué video!!!Y qué magia tenía Solti en el.alma,en las manos,en el rostro,en el cerebro!!!
Solti later conducted the same work with Chicago Symphony Orchestra in 1974, using the conductor's score.
and that fantastic AH-led brass section!
People have little to none in knowing just what goes on in rehearsals and in the coming together of such music and ensembles like this. Its far far more complex than what anyone realizes.
It looks like the principal horn is Hermann Baumann who went on to have a very successful career as a horn soloist.
being a symphony orchestra player seems like a very difficult thing for sure!
Wagner ♥

Never liked him (his music making) much. But here, his presence, energy and passion are intoxicating. Not to mention the way he communicates with his forces. Great!

Remarquable ce travail d'orfèvre, tout en respectant les musiciens. Un très grand chef.
One word: extraordinary.
Wow, maestro Hermann Baumann on the first horn.
Sir Georg !!!!!
Conductor is like a chef. I want more this , less that.
This is amazing
I definitely need more Solti! I've next to none. Just some Ravel, and the 1812 overture that's it. What a shame.
Masterclass!
Muito bom bastante exigente e pode se notar que naquela época não tinha músicos jovens gostei
It is interesting that so many men are in jacket and tie for a rehearsal.
Men wore a jacket and tie for everything. It's only the slovenly standards of today that makes this look unusual.
@@karldelavigne8134 this is unnecessary. Making music and living life do not require so much formality.
@@Teladian2 It is only formal if your standards are 0. All the best music was written by, and played by, men who wore jackets and ties. And orchestras still mostly wear evening dress for performances.

There's another side to this person, the inside - don't hold your breath!
There are many videos of the 60s Stuttgart rehearsal (Solti, Scherchen, Kleiber, Celibidache, Neumann, Fricsay). Does anybody know if Stuttgart making a series of reherarsal videos or something?
Pure gold and immense musician. To be seen in every conducting class in the world.
In this case, the Heaven is in the details.
Well said.
Faszinierend zu sehen wie Solti strikt klare Anweisungen gibt, zu verstehen gib wer hier das Kommando hat, und was er möchte, jedoch immer höflich und respektvoll bleibt. Diese Mischung ist unter anderem die wahre Gabe eines großen Dirigenten.
Nach allem was ich so über ihn gelesen habe wurde er im späteren Leben schwieriger. Je mehr er seiner Machtposition bewusst wurde, desto mehr Bestand er auf seinen Ansichten, koste es was es wolle. Und da war er dann auch nicht mehr angenehm.
Ich mag seinen Wagner Stil sehr.. Aber beim Proben redet er oft schon rein und erklärt bevor irgendwas passiert ist bzw. er gehört hat was sie überhaupt spielen 😄
the best conductor ever
What an incredible combination of music and setting
Wow, Hermann Baumann on Horn!
Chopin?! C'mon bro. Chopin made this list squarely on name recognition and not the quality of the compositions. I would gladly substitute the 2 piano concertos and Konzertstuck of Weber in place of the Chopin.
Orchestra is all male, this must be the 1960's or early 1970's?
Extremely perfectionist...
Magnificent!

Interesting 2nd violinist playing his instrument backwards. I've never seen it as such a professional level.
Al 1.14 aparece Hermann Baumann !
PLEASE lift the bow off the string at the end of each phrase. Danke.
Fabuleux!!! , un orfèvre qui forme un pierre précieuse, et quel résultat !!!
he is amazing!
ショルティのエネルギッシュなオーラに圧倒される。
この雰囲気は彼の演奏との共通点を感じる。
Georg Wübbolt氏の音楽ドキュメンタリーセットを買ったけどショルティのものだけ日本語の字幕無くてマジ涙。
ショルティがモーツァルテウム管弦楽団(だったかな…)に客演した際、オーケストラはその後ショルティの響きを2ヶ月も保ったとか「巨匠神話」で読んだ気がする。
ああ…すごい指揮者ってそういう影響力があるんだって思った。
Just fascinating
A legend through and through
珍贵的录像，记录了索尔蒂先生指挥棒下的瓦格纳～
Wonderful!
Hey, Hermann Baumann !!!
35:44 tirooro *TIROORIIRAARA* _ruururuururuuum_
Un genio, un crack, un loco, un entusiasta, un maestro sin par, un dictador, alquilen que corre en formula uno, brrr, rrrrr, ahhhh ajjjj. Me pone nerviosa, electricidad en las piernas, me rasco la cabeza. Soy yo dando clase? Acabarán agotado. Cuanta energía!!!!
Very different to how orchestra rehearses these days. And what a leap in terms of technique and quality we have achieved compared to what they had then.

Maravilhoso ensaio.
Fabuleux Solti!!!
