Many comments on how good this performance is, this doesn’t come as a surprise as IMO Manfred Honeck is one of the best conductors around at the moment. He should be chief of one of Europe’s top orchestras.
Keep calm fans & love spreading good vibes, if only music could rule the world, what a wonderful world this could be, let's dedicated this remarcable performance all those who might need to become your fans from now on, big loving hug awesome performers
The greatness of this symphony is irreplaceable , and an order of magnitude more awesome I seem to wander in sorrows and solitude in a hundred years From Tokyo where young leaves are fragrant
Coïncidence ! J'ai écouté la version Bychkov de la même symphonie avec ce même orchestre : les 2 se valent, difficile de les départager. De plus, la mise en images et la prise de son sont extraordinaires. Bravo, bravissimo!!!
Once again, Honeck proves to me that he is not simply a conductor. He is the true embodied art form of gesture, as Kleiber once was. His level of detail that comes through in his performances is unmatched by almost any other living conductor, perhaps only to Currentiz himself, another true (and oh so rare) musical phrasing revolutionaries.
You are absolutely right, Honeck is anther conductor can bring the meaning of music into audience heart! Also, nowadays no one can do the meaningful and wonderful like him.
Bravo, maestro Honeck y la WDR. Pienso que Shostakovich estaría complacido de tan magnífica interpretación de su 5ta. Sinfonía. En el tercer movimiento (largo), el contraste entre las partes dramáticas y los pianísimos son de una belleza poética. El movimiento final es espectacular. Saludos desde Colombia.
Excelente execução. Parabéns a todos os envolvidos nesta brilhante apresentação. Meu muito obrigado por brindarem meus ouvidos com essa magnífica sonoridade.
Another great performance by this orchestra, led by this GREAT conductor. A fantastic interpretation. Wow! Bravo! And Beethoven is playing in the first violin section. Haha
Interpretação consciente de Honeck. Sonoridade meticulosamente pensada. Excelete ângulo das câmeras. Agora, o timpanista é show a parte: ESPETACULAR!!! BRAVO!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Ein Vorspiel yum Marsch im Ersten Teil schleicht wie auf Zehen, umgebend und eribernd und deshalb wikt lauernd, ziht an sich und gleichzeitig klingt so schauderhaft und gibt keinen Ausweg...
Nice interpretation although a little too slow at times. Ok Bernstein played it way to fast, but too slow destroyed the soul of the piece. Th struggle and anguish.

He is fantastic! His technique, sound, personality, and musicality is off the charts!
Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra is a for-real orchestra...and so is Fabio Luisi's Dallas Symphony...
The camera shots of the piano during the finale really heightens the unusual intensity of this performance, Incredible.
Thank you! 😄

Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤
It means to a lot us.
That timpanist is fantastic !!!!
Yes. The camera work not...
This is one of my favorite renditions of Shostakovich's 5th.
Excellent musicians in the orchestra!
Thank you!
We're glad that you like it 🤗

love this comment.... thank you for sharing
Great music, great performance and a great recording.
Thank you very much!
We shall repeat the note A. This and his 15th symphony are my favourites.

honeck's shosty 5 recording with pittsburgh symphony won the grammy, beside that, he conducting is art , simple and clear but detailed
I love this iteration of Shostakovich's 5th! Quite different but very intense and fun to listen to.
Thank you! 🤗
Honeck is CKleiber, just in our age :)
Certainly in his Beethoven...and he has far more versatility and breadth of rep than Kleiber showed.

Obrigado!
素晴らしい演奏。
東ドイツ的な感じがしました、今この曲が意味するもの、考えさせられます。
独りの人間が絶望な中に一筋の光に微かな希望を見出す曲、これがショスタコーヴィチの第5番です。
Fantastic.
Thank you! 😊

Obrigado! 🥰
Third movement is absolutely spot-on. Maybe you have to wear a face mask to understand these kind of music....
Magnifico!! Bravo!!
Thank you. I was streaming it on tv. Such an exceptional performance.
You are welcome! 😉
A fine, exciting performance!
Thank you!

Sublime
Thank you 🤗
Good
Surprise appearance of Philip Larkin on percussion.
Spectacular playing - BRAVI!
Thank you. 😊
Honeck for President! Wäre längst fällig, ihn an der Spitze eines Superorchesters zu haben. Zum Beispiel des WDR.
7:22 behind-the-scenes guys are like, viola? what's that?
Is it in my imagination or, did I hear an added Major 3rd (F sharp) in the very last note of the symphony?
great ears, I didn't even notice the difference but now I can't unhear it
A bit too slow ending, but finally someone who does not rush, especially the last few notes, which are better slowed down.
It's indeed originally written to play the finale slow (in 4).
Waltz no. 2
ホーネックと来日公演でショスタコーヴィチ5番をやるなら、絶対に聴きに行きます。
perfect performance!!!
Thank you! 🥰

What does "WDR" stand for? I visited your website and couldn't find any information. 🤔
WDR stands for "Westdeutscher Rundfunk" (West German Broadcasting) 😊

На редкость неудачное исполнение
Orchestras that conformed to masking themselves demean themselves. A horrible public spectacle. Stalin would be pleased.
