Today Seiji Ozawa passed away. I realize his talent again. 1989 this concert was done is Fall of the Berlin Wall. Japanese chorus, Berlin people and Kathleen Battle from the USA celebrated the freedom with this music.
Many, many years ago when I was a teenager working at an HMV music store’s Classical section in Montreal, my manager played for the first time a video of Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana with Ozawa San conducting the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. The store was full of shoppers busily moving about doing their Christmas shopping when he played “Tempus es iocundum”…the ENTIRE store froze and watched both in awe and complete joy Ozawa San’s magically animated conducting and Kathleen Battle’s heavenly singing…I will never, ever forget that moment…it will be one of my youth’s defining moments of fleeting happiness and precious memories. Thank you Ozawa San…and RIP dear friend ❤🙏🏻 ruclips.net/video/6FqeX888P18/видео.htmlsi=i5C2Io1laRNTrcMA
This is one of the best performances I've heard of Carmina Burana! The singers are fantastic, and nobody sings the solo sections that Kathleen Battle sings like she does! It is just breathtaking. I think it is Thomas Allen who, while performing Carmina Burana in 1974 under André Prévin, fainted on stage while singing, and had to be carried away. Patrick McCarthy, who happened to be in the audience, took over his part! Here it is: ruclips.net/video/XJAdGvFNncU/видео.html
I honestly thought this was the recording I had earlier until I had to look it up and realized I have Eugen Jochum from 1968 Germany ? weird, I swore I had Seiji Ozawa do I have both?...no...now I'm confused

Immense version que celle-ci dirigée à Berlin et qui nous permet de voir et d'entendre le maestro au sommet de son art. Très certainement le dernier des géants de la direction du 20ème siècle qui vient de nous quitter. Il est parti rejoindre Karajan, Kleiber, Abbado, Davis, Haitink et quelques autres de ses pairs.
I'm amazed that this performance was on 31 December 1989 (I might still have the cassette of this performance).-----It would be interesting to find/see of those of the performers are still alive in 2023?-----I posted this video to my timeline in the hour of 4 PM (my time in Columbus, OH, USA) of Monday 31 July 2023.
Someone posted the last 9 minutes of this and ever since finding it on RUclips I listen to it every night before falling asleep. It’s as close as saying my nightly prayers since I was a child.
As @carlodibella2920 mentions later in the comments (in the wonderful language of emotions - italian), I think the violinist in the background wholeheartedly agrees, as I do 😍
Thanks for the subtitles. Is this Carl Orff trolling Adolf, the semi illiterate nartzi' party and the nartzi' friendly pope with an amoral story of desire, lust, sex, and paganism in languages none of them really was able to understand? 🤣 (Honestly me neither, but I don't have a whole Gestapo organisation behind me, only the power of the modern internet) Sorry,- just came from the youtube video "The Medieval Wheel of Fortune - Carmina Burana by Carl Orff." by the channel "Classics Explained" and that's what I extrapolated from their take on this master piece (and following the subtitles here).
Quelle extraordinaire direction, précise, expressive autoritairement souriante. Du grand art. Mais où sont passées les filles dans le choeur d'enfants?

Eu, sinceramente, senti muito o falecimento do MAESTRO.😢.
wonderful musician, wonderful performance. He will be missed. RIP.
The choir members didn't need the music scores; they memorised it. Memorising the words of this cantata is a tough gig!
Never seen that before ...
We went to a fantastic performance of the Carmina in a theater in Rotterdam ,Netherlands only last week...it was EPIC!!❤
@@stanbaars3027 Agreed, I went to one here in Chicago before the pandemic and it was FIRE!!❤❤❤
Buongiorno ❤
RIP Maestro Ozawa! You will always be in our memories! Thanks for everything you did for the world of Music!

Kathleen Battle is incomparable, the best voice
Close your eyes and open your ears.😊

yep, I like the Eugen Jochum better/think it is superior
not that this isn't excellent
this recording has no expression. everyone looks bland. music's great rho

Este es el mejor Carmina Burana que oí y he oído después de algunos años. Así de rotundo!!

Sto tremando, è magnifico.
This is an ominous piece to play on NYE, lol!
Superb. The very best performance that can't be repeated.
Eu, sinceramente, senti muito o falecimento do MAESTRO. RIP, Sr. Ozawa 😢😢.
This is a fantastic performance.
Voice of an angel
É maravilhoso acabei de mostrar para o meu chefe que só conhecia a parte dos comerciais.
well done !
da note la faccia del violinista compiacentissimo della Battle a 55:53! MITICO AHAHA
Great observation🤩
55:50 if your eyes are not welling up with tears at this point, you’re not human …
Someone posted the last 9 minutes of this and ever since finding it on RUclips I listen to it every night before falling asleep. It’s as close as saying my nightly prayers since I was a child.

Thanks for the subtitles.
Is this Carl Orff trolling Adolf, the semi illiterate nartzi' party and the nartzi' friendly pope with an amoral story of desire, lust, sex, and paganism in languages none of them really was able to understand? 🤣 (Honestly me neither, but I don't have a whole Gestapo organisation behind me, only the power of the modern internet)

Буря эмоций!!!
I've seen this in the Albert Hall London
R.I.P. 💔
Grazie ✨✨
Quelle extraordinaire direction, précise, expressive autoritairement souriante. Du grand art. Mais où sont passées les filles dans le choeur d'enfants?
1:00:11 - That was super Powerful!
Bravo
The Seji is having the time of is life
Il est un trop speed pour la finale
I am curious, this is the Berlin Philharmonic, but the choir seems to be exclusively Asian. I wonder what is the story behind that ?
永久保存版🩶🤍🖤
35:53
Fabulous! (though a little up-tempo for my taste)
Agreed on both points. The Richard Cooke conducted one is my personal favorite, and feels like exactly the right speed.
Does anyone know if there is a release of this performance on vinyl LP?
i dont know for sure. but i dont think there is one out

Too fast
Not one mite too fast. Carmina Burana is not the Pavana for a Dead Princesse !
I would've liked this but then I saw that the choir was Japanese. Shame.
What’s the problem with a Japanese choir ? Could it be that you’re a bit of a racist ?
How the heck does that affect anything? They sound amazing.
