Ich mag den Stil des Dirigenten Solti sehr gerne zuschauen .Das Konzert gefällt mir ebenso gut unter seiner Leitung!!😊Über einige dieser Kommentare hier bin ich doch sehr stark verwundert!
I just watched this performance for the 4th-5th-maybe-100th time! I'm now thinking that the CSO was almost as good as this orchestra in the Bruckner Second. I wonder if the Commentator (below) who dismissed Sir Georg Solti as "an unpleasant conductor to watch" might have been referring to his shirt sleeves showing? As one who was lucky enough to attend Chicago Symphony concerts conducted by Solti, among the things we appreciated is that he was direct. He insisted on the audience being quiet. And when being recorded by London/Decca, we were part of the recording. Sir Georg bowed briefly to the audience, picked up his baton, and began conducting. You would get goosebumps. Thanks, again, for posting. And one viewer asked me elsewhere if I have a favorite Bruckner scherzo. In the Second symphony, the third and fourth movements are so exciting! Two scherzos? All the Best for 2023 from Washington,DC
Terrific performance captured on video. Easily goes to the top of the Bruckner Second Symphony performances available on the internet. I was fortunate to attend many of Solti's Chicago Symphony concerts of the Bruckner Symphonies, later released on Decca, including Solti and the CSO's Bruckner Second.. I believe he performed all of them in the Novak Editions. The SWR here sounds right up there with the CSO. Solti was great live. I don't understand why some critics knocked him at the time and since. Thanks for posting.
I saw the CSO and Solti perform two concerts at Dartmouth College in 1972. Hard to believe that, at the time, the world's greatest orchestra performed at a then Northwoods small New Hampshire college. But it is true. Rumors at the time proclaimed the concerts were funded by an extremely wealthy alumnus. And I think the CSO was on its then USA tour anyways Last year I contacted The College about this remarkable event. Alas, today no one at Dartmouth remembers anything about it. It is all so tragically sad because it was truly a major, and I do mean a major musical event. Oh well, memories inevitably disappear. Along with us all. PS I will not ever forget Solti's Mahler Symphony No. 5 in Spaulding Auditorium. Stunning, simply stunning with his signature up-tempo.
This is not one of my favorite symphonies but because Sir Georg does perfection when conducting this piece I would gladly spend concert time (peaceably) listening to it appreciatively.
As we get closer to September 4, 2024, and the observation of Anton Bruckner's 200th Birthday, I am revisiting performances of his symphonies archived on YT. This remains at the Top of the List! Thanks for preserving this recording of a great conductor leading a great orchestra! Magnificent!!!
Hi Bruckaneers I just finished listening to this symphony first time in my life This is Second version Allegro: Ziemlich schnell (C minor) Scherzo (C minor) - Trio (C major) Adagio (A♭ major) Finale (C minor) In the second version (1877) they are: Moderato Andante: Feierlich, etwas bewegt Scherzo: Mäßig schnell - Trio: Gleiches tempo Finale: Mehr schnell
Zumindest bei der Generalprobe war ich dabei ( wurde auch aufgezeichnet ) Sehr beeindruckendes Erlebnis einen der damals weltbesten Dirigenten live zu sehen.
Und welches Orchester ist es nun? Das des Bayerischen Rundfunks? Einen "SWR" gab es 1991 noch gar nicht, nur einen SWF, und der war mitsamt seinem Orchester nicht in Stuttgart beheimatet, sondern in Baden-Baden.
Preciosa la música, me ha encantado ver al director de la orquesta ,su rostro,sus movimientos de ojos.de manos,de pies.He echado de menos más mujeres entre tantos músicos.El lugar maravilloso.Gracias por dejarme oírlo y verlos tan de cerca
How I miss the days of Solti being ‘rubber man’ in the Royal Festival Hall in the mid 1960s - and types like Stravinsky appearing in a raincoat to stop encores!
Solti was a great conductor, but I find his conducting style quite funny (and entertaining and somewhat distracting), with his quirky sudden movements and wild arm swings. He always got the best out of his orchestras, though.
Fantastic performance. Terribly unimpressed audience.. Great tv coverage, pity so low resolution in this copy.Sir Georg was a smear most of the time even in the wonderful closeups.
Bruckner’s symphonies will soothe and moisturize your parched soul
What a beautiful expression .

Una delle più lucide e vivaci esecuzioni di questa sinfonia
Troppo veloce per questa acustica.
I am in love with this symphony
I am in love with Eighth 🎉

Great shymponie and great composer Tito

Marvellous. Pip Pip.
Solti had to sell Bruckner to Americans who didn‘t like it. that makes his Bruckner somewhat special.
Case in point. My sister said "YAWN". I love him!
The Bruckner’s symphony wii be a call to God to remain silent
What is behind the orchestra? Can't make it out.

Темп быстрый,не так надо
Sir Solti is very saltish
such an unpleasant conductor to watch!
Why do you say that?
But brilliant to listen to!
But very nice to listen!!!
You’d be the same person to complain about the odour of an actor on tv
@@andysoul295 just in case you wanna be smart I don't have a tv, I don't watch movies so just shut your mouth!
