Weber-Der Freischütz Overture REHEARSAL-Kleiber (1970)(1/3)

Südfunk-Sinfonieorchester
1970
Carlos Kleiber
----
From a video 30 years ago, featuring the rehearsal and concert performances of Weber's Der Freischütz overture and Strauss II's Die Fledermaus overture.
Spoken in German with Italian subtitles, we see a liveliness on par with that in the Strauss.
Enjoy!

Carlos Kleiber ist für mich - zweifellos - einer der genialsten und wunderbarsten Dirigenten überhaupt. Ein genialer und wunderbarer Musiker aus vollster Leidenschaft und Seele mit solch einer Persönlichkeit und Charisma; solch einem überragenden Ausdruck und einer derartigen musikalischen Intensität, wie man sie wohl bei nur ganz wenig anderen vorfindet.

well - bad luck, but I made a translation in the rehearsals of Die Fledermaus....

[@ilirllukaci5345]

Ingrained into my youth. As with frech romantik. Fluke of fate that I lived beside SU and Frederick Beiser? Read enough Novalis to account for it.

[@SatchmoSings]

Kleiber was a great conductor; as great as any.
He was also an incredible eccentric who didn't take care of such good care of himself; he aged badly and died young for someone in this field.
Still, he knew what he was doing and he did it quite superbly; he had firm musical instincts and convictions, tremendous knowledge and fine taste of what was proper for an orchestra to "get across."
A very, very fine, if not great conductor, indeed!

[@wooblann]

You underestimate him

[@doGreatartistsgrowontrees]

I detect an Argentinian-Spanish accent in his German (which makes sense since he was raised in Buenos Aires). Am I not right?

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

Ever so slightly, yes.

[@osvfandi]

Si, viviò en Argentina desde los 4 hasta los 22 años. Su rprimer concierto lo dirigiò en la ciudad de La Plata. Ademàs del acento linguistico se llevò de Argentina su sentido del humor y su falta de respeto en los aspectos contractuales. Un individualismo exasperante junto a una enorme snesibilidad. O sea un combo complicado Jajaja.. Saludos.

[@antoineduchamp4931]

@@Quotenwagnerianer Yes you are right there: to complicate matters, he was educated here in the United Kingdom for quite a while and also spoke very good English.

[@inthedesert2008]

some rugged looking dudes in that orchestra!

[@anonymusum]

I have a question: Where did you record this from? Which TV station or which DVD? Sorry for any inconveniance but this is important to me.

[@WilfriedBerk]

Schade, kurz vor dem "Klarinettenschrei" hört es auf ...

For you, "pal," ANYTIME!!!

[@PinacoladaMatthew]

I really wanna know what he's saying!....subtitles plz?

[@anonymusum]

I really would like to translate - but do you know how much time that takes?

[@carolvogelman8216]

I think he must have made considerable

[@JLFAN2009]

Does anybody know why his father (Erich) was opposed to his pursuit of a musical career?

[@felixscharff8621]

He only did in the beginning. i recommend the movie "traces to nowhere"

[@laurecazin]

Yessss

[@darkprose]

I have tried to find a source on this claim that he did not take care of himself and aged badly. What is your source for this information?

[@randywolfgang4943]

Because it’s not true

[@TheTristan1954]

marinuzzi ???????????????

[@raist84]

It's a shame the subtitles are in italian. Lucky me i speak a little of german and a little of italian!

[@carolvogelman8216]

(sorry) use of a ballerina wife, to study the way dancers communicate with the energy around their gestures, "pushing" the air, feeling the music with your hands?

[@anonymusum]

you´re so right - but unfortunately our political systems are like that - worldwide..

[@SatchmoSings]

darkprose--
It's an opinion.
First of all, look at what he looked like as he aged; people generally don't look as old as this now-a-days; I guess your powers of observation aren't so good.
Secondly, symphony conductors generally live to be rather old with with rather long and quite active careers; Kleiber obviously didn't.
Your questioning me this way strikes me as being rather wankerous.

Tendría malos genes, pero sensibilidad musical, a toneladas, y se la transmitía a la orquesta.
