@@franz.r2002 I thought you were joking with the name Paul Verhoeven. (Note their is another Paul Verhoeven a Dutch filmmaker born in 1938 who directed classics such as "Soldiers of Orange" and "Robocop" to name a few.)
From Wikipedia: “The closing fanfare of Les preludes was used for news bulletins by the Reichs-Rundfunk-Gesellschaft during the Nazi regime. The fanfare would cue the announcer to say, ‘Das Oberkommando der Wehrmacht gibt bekannt...’ (‘The supreme command of the armed forces announces...’) before relating the Nazi's latest victory. Germans were so conditioned by the militaristic usage of Les preludes that there was a de facto ban on the piece after the war.” My understanding is that Hitler chose this piece as the victory fanfare initiating Operation Barbarossa, Germany’s invasion of Russia in June 1941, which ended in the Nazi defeat at Stalingrad in early 1943. Audiences may still somehow have enjoyed the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra performance of Les preludes in 1943, but, in March 1945, the orchestra’s final performance days before the Soviets overran Berlin included Wagner’s Die Götterdämmerung, after which Hitler youth offered cyanide capsules to the audience as they left.
@@karlheven8328 As I recall, the sources I looked at online when I wrote that comment indicated uncertainty about the exact date of the performance but said it was probably in March. When I searched again today, several sources say the final concert was on April 12, 1945.
Interesting, but what we hear in the sound-track is totally unrelated to what we see the musicians doing. The *only* moment of coherence between video and audio is the final chord. The editors of the film (newsreel?) assembled video and audio that have nothing to do with each other.
This was the Alte Berliner Philharmonie before it was leveled by the Americans in 1944 in an act of utter desregard towards history and culture (they would have destroyed even the Bayreuth Theather if they hadn't thought it was a Hofbräuhaus). What a beautiful concert hall. And what a shame.

This became the heralding sound to news of victory and defeat

Even though it's just a minute...it's GLORIOUS!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
wish my gf would say that
Wish I could find the whole 1943 performance!
From what I've found, this is an extract from the German 1944 film "Philharmoniker", directed by Paul Verhoeven (1901-1975).

Unless you're a connoisseur, you will be happy listening to the entire piece by any of the fine European orchestras.

The last concerto of the Third Reich consisted on Beethoven´s Violin Concerto, Bruckner´s 4th Symphony and Götterdämmerung last scene.
To my knowledge he only gave around cyanide in April . Are you sure, and what is your source?
Source? Sound like more boomer bullshit to this Goy

@@1948painter Ok, that would make more sense as that wad indeed the very last month and everyone knew then that the war was lost
これは、Rare だ！
旧フィルハーモニーの伽藍の様子もわかる。
This is rare! We can also see the state of the old former Philharmonic cathedral.
Fantastica esecuzione!!!!!!
J'aime beaucoup la grande musique.

It was also used in the third Flash Gordon film.
It took me years to find this. I used to watch Flash Gordon on the TV back in the 70's. Love it.
Brilliant.
Mit dem Pauker Gerassimo Avgerinos habe ich 1980 und 1981 noch zusammen gemuckt (Carmina Burana und Hohenfells). Der war 'ne Type...
SONDERMELDUNG!
It’s so heart breaking such a beautiful, soaring fanfare was used like a film score for the bloodiest military disaster in history. 22.06.41
0:09 so beautiful!

This must be an excerpt from a motion picture. Which one ? Do not know yet.
It is from the german movie "Philharmoniker" from 1944.
With in Germany famous actors like Will Quadflieg and Elisabeth Flickenschildt.
Hat Adi gut ausgesucht
Despite this dramatic music, which Hitler absolutely adored, Germany was already (1943) starting their long, slow retreat.
It sounds like something good only if Ur high.
