A live performance of Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony is always more than a concert-it is a communal experience. This overwhelming, heaven-storming symphony takes the listener on a long journey toward an exalted destination.

Recorded live in concert May 2, 2023
This is truly a phenomenal performance! These are kids performing this, and their sound and musicality can easily compare to performances of some of the best orchestras in the world. Bravo!
I love the introduction. I wish more composers explained the piece before diving right into it. It allows the listener to understand the piece.

@@Dylonely_9274 YES ...Fantastic teacher.
thank you!!
I was there at this performance and it was a simply breathtaking performance. It was my first live performance of the Mahler 2 and hearing Maestro Zander's introduction certainly raises and augments the experience of the piece ten fold, this, plus hearing the organ of symphony Hall resounding at the end with the orchestra in a cosmic harmony was the culmination of the night, the culmination of the season, and ultimately an eschatalogical culmination of the beginning of eternity, it is not only like a black hole in the beginning, but a transformation into the sunglarity found in the centre of a black hole, transporting one to the singularity of the birth of an entire universe. A universe built entirely from an orchestral fabric, immersing the listener into the vast cosmic fabric of Mahler's sonorous universe. Thank you Maestro Zander!!!
A well prepared listener gets to hear miracles. So happy for you!
The Boston is a shadow of its former significance. Under Leinsdorf it was unparalleled.
@@James-ll3jbwhat an irrelevant comment!!! Even if it were true, still the contribution of Zander is immeasurable. He is such an inspiring human being! His approach talk that preceded made this experience such a joy! I listen to his masterclasses and there is always new things to learn
@@panossolo909 The vibrance of the Boston is a pale shadow of what itcwas under Erich von Leinsdorf and Michael Tilson-Thomas c. 1974--that's all I'm saying. Different era, a golden age actually with those guys plus Bernstein, Szell, Reiner, Monteaux, Ormandy, etc.
My favourite symphony of all time. I think it is the most rapturous finale conceivable.
Fabulous....epic pipe organ. God was truly looking over Mahler's shoulder.
I absolutely love Benjamin Zander's inspiring introduction to the piece
I heard his Mahler 2 on his tour in South Africa. Its a night I keep replaying in my head!
Professor Zander is a great teacher and man. At age 75 he gives me such enjoyment and confidence in the power of music.
85， actually
Actually, I was meaning my age; which is 75.
My sentence construction was poor.
@@Brigadier2000hahahaha, apologize for my misunderstanding!
@@Brigadier2000wish you all good!
@@Brigadier2000at 74, I understood what you meant 😊
What a symphony… 🎼🎵🎶
Maestro Zander, you've done it again.
Holy smokes waht a wall of sound. Well done Maestro, well done orchestra.
Fabulous introduction to this epic work. I learned so much in these few minutes. I wish I had attended his South African concerts!
May this world be rejoiced with the magical energy of this piece and the performance of each artist, but above all may the Maestro continue to infect countless beings with his talent, energy, and spirit.
Thank you for filling our hearts with light and happiness.
👏🙏👏🙏👏🙏
What an absolute dream to have been part of this! Bravi tutti!
No tengo palabras para describir la profunda experiencia de escuchar esta obra. Alguna vez en mi vida me gustaría poder estar allí.....
I think this is the finest combined performance with recording quality.
Nope!
What an extraordinary experience, pure delight. Thank you for this beautiful performance.
I love Symphony Hall. My aunt took me there as a kid and I was taken by the architecture inside and once the music started I felt so much joy being there. Haven't been there in a while but this makes me want to go back.

Thx
Zander is the conductor we all needed but never knew we already had.
At least these you musicians andmaestro Zander did make my eyes shine...
Both soloists were amazing but the Soprano’s performance was on another level.
Maria Brea, wow.
Wow www 😢😢😢😢😢wowwww
Astonishing how many use a tablet instead of printed sheet music. I would always fear the possibility of it glitching out and then you have an entire desk without any notes to play.
The camera was literally shaking from the organ pedal stops....!
I'm here for it!😂
wow
Wowwwwwwwww wowwww wowwww... just wowwwwww
Yeah, I saw her too.
Yeah, Resurrection...
13:55 For the start of the piece.
樂團成員很年輕。
Sem comentários..........
👏👏👏
Almost seems insulting to call this a youth orchestra if they can perform this so well!
1:20:23 Chorus
Too bad its not the Boston of Leinsdorf.
This is a youth orchestra, not the Boston Symphony Orchestra. :)
@@BostonPhilharmonic They sound better than the Mahler 5 he did with the grownups
The conductor is not a member of the chorus And the gong player and organist should have been shown during the finale!
So no problems woth the performance then?
Why’s one of the horn players mostly tacit?
That’s the assistant to the first horn. An assistant usually plays in the tutti, giving the principal horn occasional and much needed reprieve before next solo.
Ty for the explanation
Bonged out
Maybe, just maybe, that's how Mahler wrote it.
Furthermore, Youth orchestras are often very much larger than Adult orchestras so that more youngsters get the opportunity to experience playing in an orchestra and playing these great works at a young age. They are there to provide for the established orchestras going forward.
1:30:00
The singers with the masks. Whasup with that.
Just a personal choice
Three reasons: (1) Mandatory social convention among faux liberals still obedient to the hivemind of adolescent peer pressure; (2) cuz Putin; (3) cuz Trump.😅
Too bad the soprano soloist screamed at the top of her voice.
Eight plus minutes of this pretentious old squeezebox as preamble! Eric Leinsdorf had more decency--and Mahlerian talent!
The Boston, like Boston, really used to be something.😢
