Resurrection in Lucerne
Lucerne Festival. 21 August 2003, 7.30 pm. The atmosphere in the large concert hall in the spectacular, steel and glass Culture and Convention Centre built on the shore of Lake Lucerne by the French star architect Jean Nouvel is electric. The event was sold out months ago. Here and there a throat is softly cleared, people settle in their seats, their faces alert and expectant. At last, doors open and the members of the newly founded Lucerne Festival Orchestra come on to the platform. There are many very well-known faces: the clarinettist Sabine Meyer and Emmanuel Pahud, the fleet-fingered first flute from the Berliner Philharmoniker, Natalie Gutman among the cellists, members of the Hagen and Alban Berg Quartets among the rank and file of strings, and other players include Albrecht Mayer (oboe), Kolya Blacher (violin) and Wolfram Christ (viola).
Lucerne en fête
What kind of orchestra is this, formed of the most famous instrumentalists, the most celebrated chamber-music players, the most experienced soloists from the world's best orchestras? With Claudio Abbado to conduct it, chief conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker up until the previous year, for whom the Lucerne Festival Orchestra is the realization of a wholly personal dream? One answer, at least, is obvious: lt is an orchestra of superlatives. "After this first appearance", the press agreed, "there can be no argument: orchestral cultivation of this calibre is scarcely to be heard anywhere else."
The Lucerne Festival has a long tradition of generating its own orchestras. The best remembered is probably the Swiss Festival Orchestra, which assembled "the best orchestral musicians of Switzerland" (to quote the Original memorandum of association) to give the concerts that formed the festival's backbone every year from 1943 to 1993. But the idea of an elite orchestra goes back further, to the summer of 1938. This was the year in which Arturo Toscanini dissociated himself from the Salzburg Festival for political reasons; a handpicked orchestra was formed for him to conduct in Lucerne (the members of the legendary Busch Quartet, banned frorn playing in Germany, sat at the first desks of the string section) and his "concert de gala" marked the moment when Lucerne was new-born as a festival city.

I dont know why people say classical music is boring when gems like this exist..Bravo Mahler!
It's because their taste is corrupted by songs that talk about things in this life which don't worth, songs that make them do things without thinking. I've listened this masterpiece a lot of times and i never get bored. Its wonderful

Variety is good but the greatest music.
Dear Friend, don't lost your time to say about stupid people...
I definitely agree 👍🏼🌹
The scale of Mahler's symphonies remains unmatched. The size of the choir alone is mindblowing. The orchestra with 2 Harps and all of this is directed by one of the better conductors that have walked earth. Nothing more to say than "impressive"
Ten years without Claudio Abbado. How much we miss this great conductor.
Imiss him too
Legend

Abbado direct without reading a single note. He perfectly knows the entire score, any instrumet part, tempo, expression, sound. He is in total control of the simphony and can move beyond with the orchestra in the realm of MUSIC. That's how the great conductor works.

But wouldn't that be as with any true instrumentalist. Memorized. You know what's gonna happen before they do...

Yes, an underestimated but vital skill.
Abbado ...the boss
I can never not cry at the finale of this piece. I wish the lyrics were on the screen because they matter so much. I am not religious but that message of hope, that my heart will rise again, that nothing is lost, that I should prepare myself to live once again… that message has gotten me through many rough periods in my life.
This symphony is called the symphony of resurrection, it tries to show us what the next life sounds and feels like, in my opinion this symphony also explains how we are able to die not only physically but emotional and mentally and we must rise again, because we’ve come to this world to struggle and fight for what we think we deserve, our goals and ambitions. Stop trembling and prepare yourself to live
Indeed, resurrection is real. 🙂
Oh my word yes, i stop while I'm running, cry, and applaud to my headphones ❤
Your explanation is beautiful, thank you

This piece makes a very strong argument for music being humanity's greatest accomplishment
One of the most powerful expressions of the human spirit. I hope to hear it in person one day.
Trust me, when heard in person it has a totally different taste, it's like you are watching all the air particles converge to the stage, it has a soul and it will live you totally speechless

Ive been to 8 performances of it,and i still cant get enough. Gets me every time!
I cried when I heard this live at a concert and it was my first exposure to classical music. Incredible how just instruments can trigger emotions.
just instruments? In a symphony with soloist singers and an entire choir?😂😅
@@marioroveda5481 The human voice is the oldest instrument there is.
@@Josef_1186 What about the bone-flute? It is over 60,000 years old.
there are humans behind instruments
@@Josef_1186 Is the voice actually an instrument though? People always distinguish between singers and instrumentalists (I am not saying that one is superior to the other to clarify).

A day without listening to this music is a day wasted.
correct
Mr. Fuller, thank you for introducing me to Holst. I see a strong resemblance between Holst's Saturn and Mahler's second! Holst is more subtle and more gentle. Give me Art Garfunkel any day too! Cheers!
SCE BIRD UNABLE you need tranquiliziers or PCP therapy
Alex Reik Why you'd say that?
Listen to the Word
5th movement is unreal. Choral passages are stunning
You can listen to this music over and over again; you will never get tired of it. This interpretation is simply awesome.
I've found this to be the pinnacle of my personal music taste since as far back as 2005. It just doesn't get old. Ever.
I am crying right now. Very moving
The best Romantic-era symphonies are like this. They take you on a complete journey.
This is one of the best performances of the Mahler 2nd.
Certainly
Not just a one of the best, It is Best!
Of course, there is a lack of instruction for all notes and a subtle tempo twist, but it is not an essential element in Mahler music.
My personal favorite, together with Mehta
What about Bernstein's performance
No doubt the greatest symphony of all times for me personally. The raw power and emotion this piece has are beyond what words can describe.
For me it's nr Nr. 8 but Nr. 2 is right up there too.
I can't help but feel as if Claudio Abbado is the embodiment of Gustav Mahler in his absolute artistry and vitality. Conductor Abbado pays his authentic tribute to the composer and conductor Mahler. Tremendous work is this Mahler's II. symphony.
If just the world will listen to this music i think we will get a peaceful life without war.
So true -- but much of the world doesn`t even know what music is.
My first ever orchestral concert was this piece, I went in with a mindset I'd be bored and sleep halfway through. Quite the opposite. I could barely see at the end of it from the tears, it was glorious and I was hooked on classical music ever since. It felt like watching a movie.
Your discricption beyond
million expressions
I'm glad your intro to orchestral music was this piece, one of the top symphonies of the Romantic-era. You could ask for a better introduction? A great Romantic symphony has tons of great stuff in it.
56:58 this is one of the few recordings where the strings are heard clearly. i know most people prioritize the brass melody but i think this particular performance features both strings and brass equally well
legends says they are still applausing
mythings tells they are still thanksing
What can I say? I can say something about this snowy winter in northern Sweden, about snowy trees, about covid-19, about the dark weeks up here , about the moon over white fields, but in this case I have completely nothing to say. The mystery is still a mystery, the unknown is still unknown. And I like it that way.
... Snowy landscapes and this music, no better combination. Take care up there in the far north. From the very south of Europe, Milan Italy

+Leland Chan one of the greatest... Oh never mind
One of the greatest bow ties of all time!
No, but seriously, it is utterly moving to see the intensity of Abbado's engagement with the orchestra from the very start. Wish I'd been there.
yes，great！
Every single symphony of Mahler's are masterpieces! Yes this one is amazing but so are the other 8. This Symphony is all the more amazing because it is a fantastic orchestra performing! And the icing on the cake is the glory of Claudio Abbado conducting!!!. It is such a loss that Abbado is not with us any longer.
If you are not blown away by this performance you are virtually dead! AMAZING ......
There is incredible emotion in this music, Mahler manages to make tears roll from my eyes when I hear it. I listen almost exclusively to classical music, Mahler is one of my top 5 composers, including his songs - bread for the soul!!!
I had the joy and privilege of being part of the chorus that performed this work last night (April 3, 2017) with the Ottawa Symphony Orchestra. For the past 6 months, Maestro Abbado's version has been my constant companion - not just my study guide. So glad that this was published - a brilliant version of an epic piece of music - and that the effort of the musicians can live on electronically.
congrats... even so late after. I belong to a more modest chorus but the pandemic has brought too much silence. We shall sing again!!!!!
💪💪💪🌺🌺🌺👍👍👍
Man it has to be something glorious to listen to this live
A masterpiece. Performed by an extraordinary orchestra under the baton of the incomparable Claudio Abbado. Mahler is life itself.
First time hearing Mahler, I was reccommended the 2nd symphony, I feel like I was in good hands with Claudio Abbado presenting it to me for the first time, it was a journey I will never forget. Thank you EuroArts for making this available to us.
I am missing you abado.
You were the man who loved the music and the human.
You always made me moved by your humble attitude as well as by the playing the symphonies.
It was the day of my birth when this concert was performed! So fascinating!!!
Oh my God. Who's cutting onions around here??? Hit me right in the core; right in the soul.
The brain of a man, through his music, communicates with my brain causing profound emotion, even, sometimes, tears and goosebumps. And the man died more than a hundred years ago.
He was only 51 when he died.
I am not a musician and only have a light education in music but I can tell you that music like this takes me to another world it seems. The thing about many other composers are their work is repetitious in a way that the music can be easily remembered (or at least the main motif can). Mahler's work is much more complex than that. A symphony like this has wonderful developmental sections, beautiful quiet passages, "stormy" sections where the tension builds, and explosive climaxes (one of the things I like best about his music and can be heard in its glory as early as the 4th movement of his 1st symphony). I have never heard music so moving in both overall tone and emotional impact as Mahler's works. I can relate to the commenters that state they tear up when listening to Mahler's work. The emotional impact is huge. Luckily I discovered his music early in my life (in my college years) so I was able to enjoy it for decades and still going. Listening to it now as I am typing this. I think if I was at this live concert I would go thru a whole box of tissues. It touches my soul.
I'm with you on this. I've lived on a diet of punk music, Japanese grindcore, hard and psychedelic rock... and Mahler. I have all his symphonies and return to them often. I've tried the others (I don't mind a bit of Chopin when he's creepy, and I do love Salome by R.Strauss) but Mahler's the only classical composer I collect and listen to. I'm not sure exactly why (I can't describe it musically), but your description above explains a lot.
I´m in tears - My favorite! I agree with your analysis - Im just an Electronic Engineer but I love Mahler.
David James ll
Your comments are so refreshing to read
Yes! Very well said. I heartily agree. I think if I were to recommend the uninitiated which composer to listen to first it would be Mahler.
Finished a 14 hour shift. I got home, Sat back and put this majestic Vid on. I couldn't be happier. Beautiful. In everyway. Thank you.

15:45 so much goosebumps it's crazy
I've listened to this symphony more than 100 times, and everytime I find something new in it. Superb Genius mr Mahler.
Now that is how to end a symphony!
This is my favorite symphony ending with Shostakovitch 15th, and they're totally opposites!!!
Claudio Abbado makes Mahler fill our souls with extraordinary music. It is really a 'resurrection' for me.
Me, too! This is truly a maestro in every sense of the word. From his documentary, he likes to be called Claudio by the orchestra.
It took me a long time to really appreciate Mahler's symphonies. I foumd them hard to get into. But now I love them, especially symphony no 2
Yo sin la música clásica no puedo vivir,; me llena, me anima, me ayuda a reflexionar sobre la vida en el mundo que nos toca vivir y me da mucha serenidad ante los acontecimientos propios y ajenos. Gracias a todos los músicos que sin ellos no tendríamos estás y otras vivencias.

Ich liebe Gustav Mahler. Eine der schönsten Sinfonien überhaupt. Maestro Abbado hat hier eine wunderschöne Aufführung gezaubert.
Was für ein Klangkörper! Das ist ja unglaublich!
❤❤❤
To listen Mahler music is difficult like to solve mathematics exam and need many times, mental energy but l like all Mahler musics. I am malherian. From daegu city in Korea
Probably my favorite piece of orchestral music ever. I have never heard the human voice so perfectly blended into the orchestra, not separate, but in incredible communion. Thank you Claudio Abbado for your insightful reading and translation of Gustav Mahler's work. When I found this on youtube I listened to it, and had to stop what I was doing and go into my 'music room' to turn on my much more robust sound system to really listen and feel the sound. (no ads were seen or heard) I've loved this piece for decades, and seldom hear it without tearing up at least once during the performance. The emotion, the soul, the truly spiritual essence that Mahler imparted in this piece is overwhelming.
是啊！我的感受跟您一样！
Comparto plenamente sus comentarios, saludos desde lolol pequeño pueblo chileno
How is it possible for a mere human being to create such beauty?
I have often wondered
Somebody help me!. Can't stop listening to this version of Abbado.
I can,'t too
Añd can't help
listening to it twice a week keeps the doctor away.
Heard him conduct this with ECYO at the 1985 Proms in London - Christa Ludwig was mezzo soprano - one of the greatest musical experience of my life. You can see from his expression in the final chorus just what this music means to him.
same here, every night 6-12 hours only mahler.......
Same. The best, no doubt...
Unforgettable Abbado...
Mahler's symphony number 2 is one of the most magnificent creations in the history of classical music. It never fails to take me into the world of an unknown beauty.The sublime perfection of Mahler's tunes creates a spectrum of pristine emotions within my brain.
The part beginning roughly in 57:00 is the one which strikes me most, even more that the finale itself. The feel it brings of awakening, enlightenment, alleviation and conclusion is very impressive, as if it was stronger to recollect that sensation in this symphony than really experiencing it in life.
My favourite part too
It is the gate to heaven opening.
Maravilhoso! … fiquei pensando como que o público da plateia baixa não se levantou… uma pena ..
Mahler, the reason why I decided to become a musician.
I totally agree
Really, how?
@@DaviSilva-oc7iv Perhaps the fact that you have asked, "Really, how?" indicates that it would not really achieve anything by answering you. All the best. Bev
@@darkgreenambulance I made this comment so long ago I don’t remember exactly my original intention, but I believe I just wanted to know why, even if I didn’t word it in the best of ways.
Me too… im a Singer and the first piece I sung was Eines Fahrenden Gesellen, I fell in love with Mahler. I was 17 and went to audition for University with this cicle. My teacher said that she found weird that I came with this as I was very young and most singers bring Opera.
The greatest symphony conducted by its best interpreter.
Eccellente esecuzione del grande Claudio Abbado, che dirige senza la partitura davanti, il quale ha memorizzato ogni frazione della lunga e complessa sinfonia N. 2 di Mahler. Una composizione di tardo romanticismo ma con aperture importanti alle innovative produzioni musicali di primo Novecento. Composta in un periodo importante della vita di Mahler, questa sinfonia esprime bene il conflitto interiore del compositore, tra certezza del nulla esistenziale e la speranza, seppur di palliativa consolazione, di una grandiosa resurrezione finale.
The absolute uniformity and contrast of male and female dress codes in the chorus, their symmetrical disposition according to height, and the absence of scores from which to read their parts - all is learned, and perfectly delivered from memory (although the instrumentalists have scores but the conductor does not) - together create an overwhelming impression on the mind and the spirit.
OMG!!! Brothers Capücon ( violin and cello) among many other best musicians around Europe in this outstanding orchestra and with one of the best conductors!! Mahler music is most worthy for this!!
What a stunning performance. Just wow. Sobbing like a baby at the climax Aufersteh'n. Can't believe I haven't come across this before. And it seemed like each member of the orchestra was a force of nature barely held in check, but with such gentle control, by the maestro. There was something in the air in Lucerne that day.
I'm so upset with myself for not listening to this sooner. I could tell I was about to experience a masterpiece within minutes.
I cry every time! it doesn’t get much better than this. RIP Maestro Claudio x
Esta grabación de la 2 sinfonia de Mahler está considerada como de las mejores de la historia, espectacular version ,hasta el mismísimo Beethoven lloraría de emoción.
I would have loved to have been in the choir on that, its magnificent
What a great man... Requiescat in pace Claudio Abbado
The best performance ever anywhere without any doubt.... A great great event...
My god. I never had the willpower to listen to the whole symphony. I never understood why so many people praise this as their favorite piece of music. Today, I finally understood why it is called "Resurrection".
I cry very seldom, almost never. I used to think that a piece of music, however beautiful, couldn't evoke strong emotions in me. But when the choir and orchestra climaxed, at the very end of the fourth movement, I started sobbing like a baby. I am so grateful to know about this symphony.
Emozionante come poche altre cose...Grazie caro Maestro per questa splendida interpretazione del capolavoro di Mahler...Ci manchi tantissimo!
Let's take a second to appreciate how even the camera work is amazing in this recording
The guy with a grey coat at 1:23:09 couldn't hold his tears. Even listening at home, I can't hold them myself. At the end of the performance so many of the audience seem to be reacting as if it's a normal song. Their faces seem so bored, but that man really expresses what Mahler wanted for us when listening to his works: It's supposed to move you and your life and to make you leave the concert hall with a different mind and a different heart. I'm so sorry for those who had the unique chance to contemplate it and couldn't engage in such experience.
Y Yo Tampoco puedo contener mis Lágrimas, Amigo. Que Sinfonía más Maravillosa!!!!!!
Cherish that some of us (maybe more than we know!) are so moved, by music mostly, but extreme beauty in other fields also.
Gaston, ¡Somos los humanos más felices que podemos sentir esto!
The first time I heard this piece was at a concert. The tears didn't stop even after leaving the hall
I’ve listened to this piece in it’s entirety probably about 40 times in my life and it can still bring me to tears. Oh why couldn’t Mahler live to be 1000.
Happy Birthday and RIP Claudio Abbado 🌹🌹🌹
I've cried loudly and silently several times with this performance and with Maestro abbado's death. What a music and what a man. I wish I would have met him.
Fra poche ore è nuovamente l anniversario del tuo compleanno Maestro G. MAHLER.... Auguri di cuore "dovunque tu sia" assieme alla tue meravigliose partiture, veramente geniali e un affettuoso ricordo al maestro Abbado tuo grande interprete e grande direttore!!!!!!
An absolutely remarkable performance. Incredible orchestra, such virtuosity and splendour in the sound, and Abbado was simply one of the greatest conductors of our era. I sorely regret not seeing him live when he was still with us.
The manuscript for this piece just set a world record for the most expensive piece of music ever bought. Sold for 4.5 million pounds (5.6 million US Dollars). WOW!

Money well spent
I totally love this CONDUCTOR! ..... and I miss him. But we are not on this earth forever. Thank God and those who have preserved his work.
Gracias a quien nos lo regalase o hizo posible que hoy, con millones de personas recluidos en sus casas, pudiéramos vivir esta maravilla.
The beginning gives me cold shivers. The most keyed up, ominous beginning ever!
please ceep this video alive.... it's the perfect example, how this peace must be performed!!!
5 years later and it's still alive
Such powerful performance!
You can listen to this music over and over again, always in a state of amazement and wonder.
I am a regular visitor of this particular performance, in good and bad times. And the great Abbado does not disappoint. I've lost count of the different rendtions I have listened to (from the essential Mehta and Bernstein to Solti and Rattle) but the one that hits me harder is this one; perhaps because of the choir and the visuals, the facial expressions of the conductor, I still can't get my head over why this one hits me like a thunder (and I end up weeping!)
My God. I am on the floor, weeping at the raw emotion I just experienced. This raw beauty. This raw passion. I never thought I could be this moved by a recording... especially one found on RUclips. All three of us Americans who still love deep art - the type that elevates the human soul- appreciate this. My sensations are beyond words. I wish I could fully articulate what I'm feeling right now.
Four!
Really great comments and I share your feelings totally.
What you are feeling its called greatness in its more orgasmic expression!
I feel ya, bro
Do you really think you're one four Americans who love deep art?
what a brilliant conductor.
Vintage Abbado knowing all, expressing all to do Mahler's genius justice. RIP, caro maestro. (Lovely shot of Bruno Ganz in the audience, RIP to you, too, maestro).
Sempre emozionante e commovente Abbado in uno dei più grandi capolavori del genio umano. Il finale è qualcosa di indescrivibile che trascende l'essenza stessa della musica.
DI fronte a questo capolavoro non si può che tacere... silenti, estasiati e grati!!!!!
This is my favourite thing on the internet ever.
Me too
My favorite symphony , from my favorite composer !
For anyone who has any doubts about Mahler, Claudio Abbado clarifies all doubts.
Wonderful !!!!! I think it is the best version in the world until now.
wonderrrFU££!!!
I have enjoyed this symphony countless times. It never loses its power to move me. There is something very special here, something transcendent and spiritual.

This was a wonderful, wonderful experience. One of the most touching pieces of music I've heard in all my life.
So there are no adequate words - just the music, the world, the miracle. ❤️❤️❤️
R.I.P. Maestro
As for Symphone No.2 of Mahler, I always come back to this performance by Abbado. I never fail to be moved almost to tears when I listen to the last part of this supreme performance. Everything, any instrument part, tempo, and constrast of sounds, is under his perfect control. I thank Abbado for giving us this moving time. Love to Abbado and his orchestra. He-day from Japan

I am allways mesmerized by the ballet of a maestro hands and the contrast of the intense facial expressions. And this Ressurection overcomes me with emotions, wishing that my loved ones over the beyond be at peace and joy.
A super impressive piece. I find Mahler's music more satisfying than any other composer. It surprises me to read that Mahler's main goal was not to be a composer, yet he seems to have surpassed many other great composers. I had the pleasure to hear Mahler 4 and 5 played live but I never heard this one live.
For years I've been in love with Bernstein's 73 recording with the VPO, but this is just stunning. Beautiful, and what an orchestra!! Thank you Claudio may you RIP. Never forgotten.
Маэстро Аббадо! Сколько же нужно здоровья, чтобы приподнечти такое гигантское произведение зрителю в таком блеске!
This is such a superb, heartfelt performance. I keep listening to it, again and again. Claudio Abbado really feels Mahler.
What a wonderful orchestra the Lucerne Festival Orchestra is! I admire their dynamic playing, still with transparency, where all the parts fit together perfectly to shape a total unity.
Nunca me aburriré de escucharla. Aún en cuarentena 2020
