Yes, George. Completely agree! So, I'd say the flexibility of tempo works like physical balance in a dance. It's great how the changes of tempo are perfectly graded to maintain that poise at all times. I wish I knew a way of conveying that to instrumentalists in a few simple words with the sort of ease that Kleiber's conducting expresses it! Perhaps it is an acute understanding of inertia, so that changes of tempo are never pushed through at a sudden, arbitrary speed, but have to gather momentum. When a musician feels this, rather than merely thinks, it creates the observed sense of balance that feels very real. VS, thanks for a lovely transfer. This is a delight.
@@The-Organised-Pianist Dear Org.-Pianist! I have always had a feeling for flexibility of tempo and phrase, but would never have been able too explain it! in words! May I pinch your beautifully lucid explanation, which just explains in words rather than be instinctual. I would say something like, "Try it like this and see what you think." That approach informed those performances that VS upload of our Chamber String Orchestra a couple of years ago by now. I played the phrase or transition, and we tried it out. It almost always stuck actually. Very best wishes from George

I really enjoyed this.
Lovely music making, subtle, poised, flexible, and a lovely light touch.
Best wishes from George
I agree, George. I played it through several times!!
