God, I just realized that: no coughing. Thank you for that "catch." Certainly the no coughing led me to a better listening experience! I didn't notice it because it wasn't there. :-)
The conductor... he's feeling it, so deeply, like all that emotion at the same time compressed inside him and spiraling out of him but it never ends. Watching the conductor almost touches me more than the music. One giant silent, wow. About everything present in this video.
Great insight, he doesn’t need to use flashy movement to show the orchestra what he wants, and his eyes were closed for most of the time as if he were feeling his way through the finale
this piece is incredibly hard-hitting. you can feel all of his pain, all of his sadness in it. tchaikovsky led a rather sad life considering what many believe his relationships and emotions to be, but its absolutely breathtaking here.
I don't like that his eyes are shut, it makes it seem as though he's experiencing it only for himself and shutting out the members of the orchestra, who, after all, are the ones recreating this most beautiful piece of music
@@janetgough6585 No, don't agree. To each their own. I've heard this a hundred times. Even the Instrumentalist playing were into it. A sad farewell Movement to one of the Greatest of Composers. The Director had it together. Although, Perfect is suggestive, He could have spent more time on the Voice Crossover. It's what makes the Piece so Special.
Yo well said you rule in a noticeable and timely ways I noticed , must be secret and good humble superpower 😊 attitude of 😊 beats maditude for sure ..... Oh and the others movements well Just get the blood pumping. Lol take care Daniel
No one. Absolutely no one can make a masterpiece of a symphony such as this that ended into nothingness. I'm thinking when Tchaikovsky completed this piece he was still physically alive but his soul already left his body tired as he was from fighting off his passions he just surrendered
I suffer from bipolar-depression and when I feel myself spiraling down, this movement soothes me like no other music on earth. I imagine it is like what David's harp did for king Saul.
Every time Maestro Chung’s conducting brings tears to my eyes. This is Tchaikovsky entire life in 12 minutes. I can hear the pain and fear that he felt as someone unaccepted by society at the time. Maestro’s expressions convey this so beautifully. Tchaikovsky was with him throughout the entirety of the performance. Bravo, well played.
I have read a theory that Tchaikovsky was homosexual at a time and place that such was extremely unacceptable and for that reason the Czar of Russia took it upon himself to order the famous composer to kill himself and this last great piece was composed in anticipation of carrying out the order shortly before the act was fulfilled. The four movements celebrate the stages of life ending in death. Hearing the symphony, it seems plausible.
This rendition moves me to tears every time I hear it. It is a beautiful piece of music and so evocative. The conductor extracts every bit of emotion from the orchestra - clearly one of the best performances ever.
Some people think that you are depressed when you listen to adagios, I wish I could find the words to describe what I feel when I listen to this one or to Albinoni's Adagio, I'm not depressed at all, I'm amazed and overwhelmed by all the feelings these arrangements communicate, I think that perfection is indeed possible and these two pieces are the proof.
Hope is a cruel master, always driving us on to work harder when we know in the end it will matter not. Acceptance is the answer to all human ills. This music is the epitome of acceptance. Yes, reality sucks, but there's nothing we can do about that. All we can do is come to terms with the cosmos that birthed us.
What an intense and totally committed performance by the musicians and conductor. I wonder what was on Chung's mind when he conducted this? Or maybe we wasn't thinking but just feeling. He looked absolutely immersed in Tchaikovsky tragic finale. He looked like he was worshipping the genius....
The musicians are (or at least to me seem) totally connected to each other, the composer, and Maestro Chung. It is a marvelous human experience in which to be immersed. Thanks for your kind comment.
While listening to this, I hear tchaikovsky suffer to death and feel like tchaikovsky never died at the same time. That's just how powerful this piece is.
7:00 : That moment is so powerful and so dark, make me feel so sad and at the same time surrounded by a kind of absolute beauty. Incredible brass here, a long descent into darkness. And the silence, a the end of this piece of music, sadness floating during a moment in the air, is a miracle.
This Symphony is a heartwrenching finale. The way the conductor leads the orchestra into powering up is phenomenal, it almost as if their souls were ascending into another realm 4:01
there are no words that can describe my emotion nor tissues to stem the torrent of tears that I gladly shed in immersing this body in a quivering pool of admiration.
0:01 There’s actually an auditory illusion hidden here, the top melody you hear isn’t playing entirely by the same violinist, rather it alternates between 2, this is known as the deutsch scale illusion
I made it through without crying the first time i listened to it, but after learning that Tchaikovsky possibly committed suicide 9 days after the premiere i busted into tears after listening to it again.
Chung's interpretation of this symphony always gets the tempo and mood right. Several other composers I see on youtube make everything faster as if they're really eager to end this song as quick as possible and go home for a drink.
I remember hearing this marvellous music performed in Hong Kong by the Halle orchestra in 1975. It made a profound impression on me. I love the way this conductor feels this music and he has the orchestra totally with him.I was feeling so sad about Ukraine and the world in general. It was a bit of balm to my soul.
una bajada de la depresión a la desesperación, un grito silencioso y sin esperanza, hay que ser de piedra para no conmoverse por el extraordinario dolor que transpira esta obra, es casi insoportable
My teen orchestra is performing from the first to fourth movement- we might even possibly be the first to try and do so. I'm not going to lie, playing the notes themselves isn't hard, it's more trouble trying to make all of our melodies come together. We're super excited to perform and we just don't eant to bring shame to this amazing piece!
Wyzierające spośród mgły światła lamp i otaczająca ciemność. Zasypana uschłymi liśćmi droga i bezlistne gałęzie drzew. Muzyka wsącza się do mojego umysłu. Wywołuje tyle emocji. Skłania do refleksji nad tym, co minęło, ile jeszcze pozostało dni. Samotność, pustka i upływający czas. Chyba tylko dla takich chwil i dla tak niesamowitej twórczości warto było pojawić się świecie. Najcenniejsze na świecie chwile spokoju i samotności.
That ending, wow. It takes quite the audience to realize the piece isn't over once the music stops. I would have been clapping when the last instrument was done playing and totally ruined the moment 🤣
wow. what a breath taking performance. you can literally feel the sorrow and tears surrounding the interpretation of this piece. Kind of hard to resist jumping out of my 12th floor window to my death.
This symphony captures the spirit of living a full life. It turns, it stirs you up and down, it tells many stories. The conductor and the orchestra deliver this music as well as it was written for us to hear it. It's as passionate as life itself! Maybe that's why I replay it so often.
Oh,God!Perfect performans,braaaaavo conductor Chung,bravo France Philharmonia.Tonight,as the countless time before,delights me this formidable performance!
This piece moved my heart so much, knowing that it is the last thing Tchaikovsky ever wrote. The struggle and agony he had in his life being denied love and not being accepted. This was his requiem, a silent yet explosively passionate end to his last symphony, an end cap to his story. The recording showed such respect to this piece and Tchaikovsky, everything from the way the musicians played to the emotions the conductor conveyed through the music, it's purely beautiful. Покойся с миром, Чайковский.
Thanks to one short on RUclips, to me this composition will always be associated with the Earth's last moments before death or the planet's epic death as such. The music itself is wonderful.
This movement brings tears of sadness and comfort at once. I always cry and can not answer why. And when it ends I feel empty for a moment. Perhaps, many of us can relate to Chaikovski's internal conflicts one way or the other. There is that fear of rejection, self-doubt, inferiority complex etc. You are afraid of being an outcast... You aren't brave enough to speak your mind... And you keep doing whatever they expect... As someone who has disability, I feel isolated at times. But I guess, Russian composers were very expressive musicians at that time and they knew how to move the listeners.
Al margen de que hay otras interpretaciones excelentes , nunca ví un director que viva la música tan intensamente. No hay otro comentario. Contagia . INIGUALABLE
Yes, this particular movement is worthy of that film as well as of describing Christ's Agonies indeed (and the rest of the symphony is no less exalted in that way). [For me, it's this movement that truly describes a funeral: D-major section like the church service (Requiem Mass), then the final climax being the actual commitment to the grave and the burial: at 9:15 or so, the grave has been refilled, with the mourners drifting away afterwards to continue with the rest of their lives...]
When Tchaikovsky completed the symphony, he wanted the end to sound like it was fading away. This recording probably does that ending better than all the other recordings I've heard.
I didn’t believe the theory that Tchaikovsky was ordered to kill himself until I heard the 4th movement. Idk, seems a lot more believable now. It’s all in the music.
No coughing...it's a miracle.
Great recording.
If cough was a person he would also be listening
is this not coughing? 9:20 not sure, but wow the person certainly found the quietest time to cough, lol.
maybe they clapped before the last movement and they feel ashamed
there was coughing at the very end 12:22
God, I just realized that: no coughing. Thank you for that "catch." Certainly the no coughing led me to a better listening experience! I didn't notice it because it wasn't there. :-)

This just might be the finest music I've ever heard. The human condition in one passage. Overwhelming.
Heiliger dankesang beethoven
I suffer from bipolar-depression and when I feel myself spiraling down, this movement soothes me like no other music on earth. I imagine it is like what David's harp did for king Saul.
I didn't want to post that, but this does sound like it...the emotional highs and lows and God-forbid suicide.
+Heriat M THank you.
Reagan Walker I can imagine. I suffer too. Whenever I suffer, this is what I am listening.
wow, fascinating actually
How does this comfort you? It's such a depressing and sad movement, it's weird how it doesn't make you sadder.

I'm here because of twoset conspiracy theory
Shouldn't you be practicing by now?
I hope you're tuning your ear or doing something related to TRAINING OR LING LING WILL BE MAD
Lol same
Me too😂 we need to be practicing
Im here because of twoset and also because no one claps and that is a true miracle
This rendition moves me to tears every time I hear it. It is a beautiful piece of music and so evocative. The conductor extracts every bit of emotion from the orchestra - clearly one of the best performances ever.

Depression, anxiety and madness. Thanks Twoset. It's still super great.
Profound - played at a perfect tempo - not rushed like so many conductors do it.
Simply stunning. Tchaikovsky is a genius who knew how to make the music deeply emotional.
Some people think that you are depressed when you listen to adagios, I wish I could find the words to describe what I feel when I listen to this one or to Albinoni's Adagio, I'm not depressed at all, I'm amazed and overwhelmed by all the feelings these arrangements communicate, I think that perfection is indeed possible and these two pieces are the proof.
Couldn't agree more !
Please listen to the Gustav Mahler's adagio in the 5th symphony... is just... perfect.
I think it’s called blues....
My sentiments exactly.
It's healing
So many great comments already. Just want to reinforce how much conductor and orchestra became one with the music. Amazing performance.
Hope is a cruel master, always driving us on to work harder when we know in the end it will matter not. Acceptance is the answer to all human ills. This music is the epitome of acceptance.

Realmente ésta obra maestra es el testamento de Tchaikovsky
For me, the most beautiful piece of music
it's not better than Despacito
@@TemplarKG Since it is classical music, it has to be better than Despacito.
Totally agree
@@TemplarKG the METAL version of Despacito
@@liptacfamily851 No.
While listening to this, I hear tchaikovsky suffer to death and feel like tchaikovsky never died at the same time. That's just how powerful this piece is.
Mesmerizing. Even if he never created anything else this one would made him immortal.
just beautiful!.....
Emotional. I love Tchaikovsky
Maybe the best Tchaik 6 I’ve ever heard.
Watching the news about Ukraine, the sufferings of the people and families there, I can only think of this 4th movement. Tragedy, sadness…
7:00 : That moment is so powerful and so dark, make me feel so sad and at the same time surrounded by a kind of absolute beauty. Incredible brass here, a long descent into darkness. And the silence, a the end of this piece of music, sadness floating during a moment in the air, is a miracle.
Tchaikovsky's music overflows and overwhelms with emotion.
11:28 note the last hearbeats at the double basses...
Brilliant...
This Symphony is a heartwrenching finale. The way the conductor leads the orchestra into powering up is phenomenal, it almost as if their souls were ascending into another realm 4:01
there are no words that can describe my emotion nor tissues to stem the torrent of tears that I gladly shed in immersing this body in a quivering pool of admiration.
0:01 There’s actually an auditory illusion hidden here, the top melody you hear isn’t playing entirely by the same violinist, rather it alternates between 2, this is known as the deutsch scale illusion
God, don't be depressed and listen to this...but, this is just painfully and tragically beautiful.
Sometimes I listen to it because it helps me cry.
Spectacular. Who can make it through the fourth movement without tears?
Me, and I'm smiling instead :)
I made it through without crying the first time i listened to it, but after learning that Tchaikovsky possibly committed suicide 9 days after the premiere i busted into tears after listening to it again.
Not me
I can’t. It rends my heart, especially when I remember Tchaikovsky died just nine days after the premiere 😢
Chung's interpretation of this symphony always gets the tempo and mood right.
Several other composers I see on youtube make everything faster as if they're really eager to end this song as quick as possible and go home for a drink.
A stunning performance, under a Maestro second to none.

What happened in Ukraine in 1975 ?
una bajada de la depresión a la desesperación, un grito silencioso y sin esperanza, hay que ser de piedra para no conmoverse por el extraordinario dolor que transpira esta obra, es casi insoportable
Sólo para que sepas, voy a compartir esto en mi facebook y voy a copiar tu estracto, me pareció un golpe de gran y noble razón
la pieza literalmente se llama "patetico"
Tragically beautiful.
I love this symphony. This movement always brings me to tears. Simply perfect. Beautiful.
What a Magic moment when all the most deep feelings of the Human soul get together at hearing Tchaikovsky and at seeing this Great Conductor.
From one of the greatest Symphonies ever to be written.
Here because of twoset too. So beautiful! It got me right in the feels when I saw the conductors tear at 3:18. 😌🥲
This is a great Maestro. The best, and my favorite Maestro. It`s all there, before your eyes!
My teen orchestra is performing from the first to fourth movement- we might even possibly be the first to try and do so. I'm not going to lie, playing the notes themselves isn't hard, it's more trouble trying to make all of our melodies come together. We're super excited to perform and we just don't eant to bring shame to this amazing piece!
This movement makes me cry so hard. Rest in peace Tchaikovsky.
I stumbled upon this video. I am glad I did. Tschaikowsky you genius!
비창에서 제일 좋아하는 파트.. 아침에 눈을뜨고 이 선율이 귓가에 들리는듯한 기분이 든건.. 불안정한 지금의 심리 상태에서 비롯된 거겠죠?.. 들을때마다 울컥하고 코끝이 찡하게 올라오는건 어쩔수가 없네요..
Wyzierające spośród mgły światła lamp i otaczająca ciemność. Zasypana uschłymi liśćmi droga i bezlistne gałęzie drzew. Muzyka wsącza się do mojego umysłu. Wywołuje tyle emocji. Skłania do refleksji nad tym, co minęło, ile jeszcze pozostało dni. Samotność, pustka i upływający czas. Chyba tylko dla takich chwil i dla tak niesamowitej twórczości warto było pojawić się świecie. Najcenniejsze na świecie chwile spokoju i samotności.
That ending, wow. It takes quite the audience to realize the piece isn't over once the music stops. I would have been clapping when the last instrument was done playing and totally ruined the moment 🤣
A very emotional, but controlled conductor: well done.
wow. what a breath taking performance. you can literally feel the sorrow and tears surrounding the interpretation of this piece.

It's a really moving tune like soul by the composer , a glory to Ukraine🇺🇦!!! no more words 👏
Tchaikovsky is Russian…
it sound so sad that if only tchaik is alive i would hug him tight.. we never know what happened but this movement speaks for it self...
I can’t say anything except that I am captivated by this piece.
Oh,God!Perfect performans,braaaaavo conductor Chung,bravo France Philharmonia.Tonight,as the countless time before,delights me this formidable performance!

this is the best version
Il s'est passé quelque chose ce jour-là à Pleyel: Myung, les musiciens, le public, tous en larmes! Heureusement pleurer, c'est aussi évacuer...
Director seems to love his job! Lovely performance!
Thanks to one short on RUclips, to me this composition will always be associated with the Earth's last moments before death or the planet's epic death as such. The music itself is wonderful.
The ever best superb Symphony and conductor is genius, only he penetrates into it so deep as nobody else...
Imagine hearing this live on the best spot there is.
Es el alma del compositor arrastrandose hacia el abismo de su desesperacion....se siente , es pura emocion !
So good, sooo emotional!!
best of the best!!
Wow it screams PEACE but painful and i just felt overwhelm , speechless
Maestro Chung, Merci pour l'énorme frisson, que vous m'avez procuré avec cette magnifique version !
i was looking for this peace for a long time, i heard it from a animation a logn time ago and im glad i finally found it. thank yiu
Que hermoso es... los humanos que nacen sordos ignoran bellezas indescriptibles como esta. Ay! Si yo pudiera devolverles la audición a todos
So darn beautiful, one of my favorits
d'une beauté absolue. Quel chef d'orchestre. Merci à vous, Kim, qui le partagez avec nous

Absolutely spectacular, and so, so moving. Thank you!
breaks me apart every time I watch it..........
Intense pathos and beauty. It subsided my personal pain
I actually saw this in a symphony recently. Beautiful music.
un capolavoro asuluto esecuzione esemplare bravissimi
Al margen de que hay otras interpretaciones excelentes , nunca ví un director que viva la música tan intensamente. No hay otro comentario. Contagia . INIGUALABLE

Not gonna lie, I cried so fucking hard.
Amazing ! One of the best versions !
Such power what an unbelievable performance.
Legend….
MAGNIFIQUE INTERPRETATION !!!!
grande pezzo eseguito magistralmente struggente e melanconico bello veramente bello
When Tchaikovsky completed the symphony, he wanted the end to sound like it was fading away. This recording probably does that ending better than all the other recordings I've heard.
Wonderful performance.

Heart drenching performance... Speechless
Yes, indeed. Thanks for leading us here. Listening to this reminds me of you. You'll be our lives' lesson.
this is so beautiful
Masterpiece!!!Top interpretation💙💙💙🖤💙💙💙🖤💙💙💙🖤
amazing performance!
Pocas veces he visto a un director tan consubstanciado con la obra y tan pendiente la orquesta de sus indicaciones!
Maravillosa versión
Indeed, Rest in peace.
There is absolutely no use for the thumbs down button on this performance. None what-so-ever.
Belíssima
wow the end reminds me of mahler 9
Mahler reminds me of Tchaikovsky
MAGNIFICO !
