  • In part two of Keeping Score: Mahler, MTT examines Mahler’s creative growth, from the 1890s to his death at the age of 51 on May 18, 1911, including his symphonies, the Rückert songs and Das Lied von der Erde. The show charts Mahler’s mercurial career as a conductor, from the Vienna Opera to Carnegie Hall in New York, as well as his tempestuous relationship with his wife Alma. At Mahler’s simple grave in a Grinzing cemetery, MTT explains why Mahler has so profoundly affected his own life. Shot on location in the Czech Republic, Austria, New York, and in performance in San Francisco’s Davies Symphony Hall.
    Bonus Features:
    Full-length concert performance by the San Francisco Symphony of A Mahler Journey. Featuring selected movements of Mahler's Symphonies 5 (Adagietto), 7 (Scherzo), 9 (Rondo burleske), and Songs of Wayfarer with baritone Thomas Hampson. Originally filmed in high-definition 16:9 widescreen and 5.1 surround sound.

    We're so proud to have worked with MTT and the San Francisco Symphony to
    create this series, between 2002 and 2011. I hope it's available to
    everyone, worldwide, for as long as possible. David Kennard, InCA

    I really cried listening to sad words at the end of 9th symphony.. such doom... even his wife wasn't loyal to him.. so much pain. My heart ached for him...
    "Those who love me will know where to find me". And there he found peace. Mahler wrote the poems Hampson sings in a song cycle, there is joy and there
    is sadness, disappointment and desperation (I have a burning knife in my heart) , there is hope and there is hope lost

  • @BytomGirl
    @BytomGirl 2 года назад +15

    When MTT asked why people cry when they hear something beautiful I cried at that very moment listening to that beautiful song he played.
    We cry because beauty touches our heart and soul, there is no other way to express these emotions. Wishing Maestro full recovery.

    I have been a Mahler fan for many years, but my appreciation now of MTT's work in producing such a wonderful video of Mahler's life with graphic & photographic support of his upbringing & life was sensational. Easy to understand but with such detail, it has opened my eyes to a whole new chapter about Mahler. So sad that others have such a negative and spiteful attitude & state it on a public forum about someone who has given so much that others might appreciate music and especially the work of the greatest composer ever.

    What a wonderful video. Thomas Hampson is an amazing singer. His sensitivity and pitch were spot on. Michael is an excellent teacher and a great conductor. The performances were hair raising. Mahler was a f%&king genius. I laughed, I cried, I was thrilled. Nobody today can write melodies like that. The scherzo from the 9th symphony is beyond description. I am a composer and I have no idea how he could write such a masterpiece. We all know that the last movement is a killer.

    So grateful for MMT's incredible series, Keeping Score. As a lifelong musician it is still difficult to delve into the great symphonic works of the Western world, where to start, how to understand. Michael opens this up to us all, musician or not and it is a wonderful legacy that will live on for generations. Thanks too to the SF Symphony. The production, camera work and sound are gorgeous!

    @danielzheng2242 2 года назад +3

    10:30 Ruckert lieder. Why do you think that when people hear something beautiful, it makes us cry? "I think it just wakes up feelings and emotions inside our selves that is not touched by words." Beauty makes us cry because we fear it can't last. Mahler teaches us to cherish the wonder of each moment

    Outstanding!! Thank you Maestro and SFO!! I watch over and over and never get tired? Why does Mahler's music speak to me the way that it does? He himself summed it up himself, when he said,"If I could say without music what I was trying to say, then I wouldn't need music" Thanks again 😊🥰

    Die zwei augen blau: I know how much that hurts. I remember when I was a kid in England there was a Pakistani boy who adored THE English rose in our class. His love was that of that of an outsider. I think that's Mahler expressed: there is no love more passionate than that of the outsider.

    Marvellous. Thanks to all involved in this project. I was lucky to be in Symphony Hall for the Hampson/Quastoff Das Lied in the late '90s. 'Ewig' eh? Mahler's 6th symphony has the best note in all music - the flattened 'blue' one in the horn solo early in the andante - and its finale is the greatest symphonic trip. How many times do we get off the floor after a hammer in the face? Those views behind the veil after the gong...
    The orchestra is wondrous creation. This one is a belter. Bravo

    I live and breathe Mahler, all of his works. But I really don't like it when his 9th is presented as his "farewell". It really is not. The greatest for me is the 10th. I know, I know - what we have of it, is not the finished product. But to me it's at the same time the perfect closing of his previous work - and the door to something new. How I wished we knew what he would have written if he had had another twenty years of life...

    Great job by MTT in this excellent series. As a Mahler fan for more than 50 years, I found it very enjoyable. One small nitpick, however, concerning an oft repeated myth about Mahler having a "thin, nasal" speaking voice. In William Malloch's very informative 1964 radio broadcast, "I Remember Mahler," which is available on RUclips, Benjamin Kohon, an eminent bassoonist for many years with the NY Philharmonic, including Mahler's entire tenure as conductor, relates the following about Mahler's voice: "He had a pretty good stentorian voice. You wouldn't think it coming out of a little man like he was." A stentorian voice is quite the opposite of thin and nasal. A small detail to be sure, but one that should be noted when imagining what Mahler was like in person.
