I remember being a kid in the car listening to my dad hum the 7th when he drove. I just lost my dad today, but I will forever have him humming the 7th in my heart. I miss him so much already.

Die much earlier, like my parents in northern China. This music can extend human life according to Chinese traditonal medicine theory, but during the long history ,we lost our ancient music.
How a man coping with the loss of his hearing created this is beyond my comprehension. After the beautiful pastoral symphonies (6th) he really showed a new level of ingenuity
Yo creo que si música será inmortal , como su amada!!!!!! Y eso me hace feliz frente a tanta mediocridad que nos toca vivir a diario, gracias al genio insuperable y a ustedes por compartir mi músico favorito!!!!!!
I'm writing my comment from Japan. It's the first time to listen "Beethoven: Symphony No. 7" full ver. Now I'm a bit tired. I almost cheer up to listen Beethoven's music. Now I listen it, I cheer up, make feel better. Thank you. 'Arigatou'.
Bernard Haitink was one of the most beloved conductors in the last 50 years , he is sadly missed and was fantastic and loved by millions all over the world !!!!!
Whilst my father lay in a coma from which he never woke I played him the Deutsche Grammaphonen Beethoven symphonies...his favourite being No7. After his death I discovered from those who cared for him that his life signs changed and he seemed more restful to them. I cannot hear this without missing him and bathing in the overwhelming beauty of such a masterpiece. Thank you for sharing this.
I too have just listened to this floating in the memory of my father. He was a French horn player and loved Beethoven. Listening tonight has brought an emotional closeness. Thank you for your comment - I felt a poignant kinship with it.
I LOVE the second movement!!! I always thought this was Beethoven’s funeral march, not the second movement of Eroica. I only came to listen to Eroica years after I had already fell in love with the 7th and it’s wonderful second movement
Did you ever listen to George Solti’s performance on RUclips? It was probably from the 1990s in an Asian country, not sure which one. That second movement is out of this world but this rivals it
@@katrinat.3032 hi. I don’t believe I have. But will check it out. Thanks for pointing it out. Now listening to one of my favorites. Mozart’s requiem, the Lacrimosa is amazing.
This composition is astounding particularly when one considers that Beethoven composed this symphony when absolutely deaf. That can, as an understatement, only be genius. Bravo!
Love this symphony, I just got through a major surgery. The master helps me feel emotions like no other musician. Listening to it brings tears to my eyes.
No. Beethoven wasn't completely deaf when he wrote this, though he definitely only had partial hearing at this time. He became fully deaf around 1815 and this was premiered in 1812.
I have the 9 symphony CD in my car and always tell my daughter that it’s the greatest piece of music ever written. However, when I listen to the seventh, I feel like I have to change my mind. The second movement, is so incredible. It says if I have to be in a special place to listen to it. It deserves that much attention. The last movement of the symphony so incredible and upbeat. Back in college, the seventh symphony was my number one and, I can see why. As I lay in bed, on my birthday, I’m enjoying this entire performance. Please share this with his many people you can. I know, for sure, but they will thank you
Beethoven had a direct telephone line with heaven. The fuge in the second movement is the essence of beauty exploding into magnificent aesthetics waves.
In a shopping mall I used to work in,in the 90’s,there was a cut price bookshop that I used to pop into during my lunch breaks.They sold various classical cd’s for a pound. I bought a lot ,just to teach and culture myself on historical music. I immediately fell in love with this piece.Absolutely beautiful. And I was into “techno” at the time.
I have had the great privilege of being in the Prom at the RAH many times over forty years when Sir Bernard conducted. I was present at his last Prom. Watching him leave the stage for the last ever time will live with me for ever. He caught my eye as he left. This performance, the sound quality, the camera angles are all up the the wondrous ;level of the performance itself. I must say, he takes the last movement a bit faster than I would like, but I loved it all. So glad he performed all the repeats - it makes such a difference ! RIP Sir and Bravo, Bravo.
I was so fortunate to see Maestro Haitink on numerous occasions. He was truly one of the great conductors. You never got the sense of ego from him; he was always serving the music first and foremost.
You mean the guy waving the stick? I suppose he waved it okay but I think the musicians should get the credit. As far as I can tell they pretty much ignore the guy with the stick.
A fun moment in music: The Detroit Symphony went on tour of Europe with the newly appointed Antal Dorati in the 1970s at the height of Von Karajans prowess. They were performing in the concert hall of the Berlin Philharmoniker. The soloist took ill and as was the custom then, the Maestro requested of the hall music librarian what piece he wanted the DSO to perform as a substitute. He smiled and said: "Beethoven's Seventh Symphony." They sight read the piece with such passion and perfection that they received a thunderous standing ovation from the audience. Dorati walked backstage behind the side curtains and danced as Stallone in the movie Rocky. Can never get that image out of my head or the roar of the audience.
I always new I was different from the rest of my family as I discovered classical music at the age of ten .It moved my soul and my heart . Thank you to all the great composers ❤
FINALLY put a name to this music that I know well enough to sing along with!!! I did not grow up with Beethoven despite having one parent, two uncles, and both sets of grandparents who were performing professional musicians!!
40:19 the look in the maestro's face, so grateful and relieved…after all the years’ experience and the reputation i can really feel that he still loves music with all his heart
Not just the 2009 audience but we are all so privileged to see this splendid performance with a wonderful partnership between Bernard Haitink, musically at his peak, and the Concertgebouw, with great sounde and energy in every section, precision of phrasing and love for playing this music. Thank you DW CLassical for making this available.
I will always love & thank my dad for teaching me all about music & to love all music, but this symphony is beyond description, Beethoven was truly one of the greatest geniuses who ever lived!
If I am not mistaken this version of Beethoven´s symphony no 7 becomes an example of something that is really good from the start, and then becomes even better under Bernard Haitinks conducting. Never have I heard such a splendid version of this symphony, with an orchestra so full of spirit that it can lift the roof of this Concertgebouw many meters. All under maestro Bernard Haitink, he is the real hero of this performing.
The 2nd movement is my favourite. I can relate to the intensity being somewhat tempestuous myself. It's so beautiful. This was the first symphony I ever heard performed professionally so it will always have a near & dear place in my heart. Danke Herr Beethoven! =)
Look at maestro Haitink's LEFT arm/hand from 39:25. It is so powerful. It conveys the utter will power of this conductor and orchestra to do it like they think it should be done. And then during the applause (41:41) there is this little abrupt thank-you movement with the hand. The signature movement of Bernard Haitink. Full of graciousness and happiness.
My late mother saw him once on Dutch tv. She did not know much about classical music. But when she saw and heard Bernard Haitink she sat down till the end. Then she said: this is so beautiful. He knows how to make the music
Surely one of the finest performances of this symphony. There's just nothing like conducting for the music instead of ego, as it seems to me. Very big thank you.
Wunderschöne Aufführung dieser perfekt komponierten Sinfonie mit seidigen Tönen aller Streicher, milden Tönen aller Holzbläser und vor allem brillanten Tönen aller Blechbläser. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und echt traurig. Im Kontrast klingt der dritte Satz echt lebhaft und auch begeisternd. Der intelligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im relativ schnellen Tempo und mit effektiver Dynamik, als wäre es ein Teil seines Körpers. Wunderbar vom Anfang bis zum Ende!
This is a concert to be not just heard, but also seen. I have had this on an LP record for 40 years now, but this video gives me a renewed experience. Every symphony of Beethoven's is a celebration, of music, orchestration and, above all, of this genius.
I'm always happy to hear recording where the conductor and the recording engineer(s) were on the same page regarding making sure all the component individual colors of the orchestration in the composition can be identified.
Es ist immer wieder ein Genuss, Beethoven- Symphonien zu hören. Diese aber, unter Bernard Haitink dirigierte, war etwas ganz Besonderes. Eindrucksvoll, wie er als Maestro das Orchester im Sinne des Erschaffers Beethoven leitete. Ich besitze sämtliche CDs von Beethovens Werken u.a. aller Symphonien und habe mehrfach diverse Symphonien in der Philharmonie erlebt. Diese Aufführung unter der Leitung Haitinks hat mir besonders gut gefallen, allein schon wegen seines ausdrucksstarken Auftretens.
I like that the camera is so much focused on Haitink himself in his conducting of this orchestra. It becomes a memory of the importance he had in classical music for so many years. Thank you, great master.
I am never out of words, but Beethoven's 7th and this 2nd mvt is like hearing God's voice, if there's a God he speaks through this masterpiece. One day I'll pass away and I hope I'll be hearing this when I get to the Otherworld. Thank you to the Exquisite musicians and Maestro, may your life be full of everything Good because you make this world a better one through your music ❤❤❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️♥️
I was 10 years old the first time I heard classical music, specifically the 7th symphony part II Allegretto , It was like my brain 🧠 went 🤯, since then I started listening and doing research about this kind of music and is when I started listening this marvelous masterpieces from Beethoven, Vivaldi, Mozart , etc.
I was fortunate enough to learn and play this piece at an orchestra camp I attended in the 8th grade, such a fond memory of mine, it will be missed dearly.
No hay sinfonía mas sublime que la Séptima de Beethoven. Sus sinfonías nos hacen ver toda la trayectoria del Maestro, su tragedia, sus miedos, sus Iras, pero también sus alegrías, te hace entrar en su mente, y la Séptima es danza, rabia, lagrima y lucha...Hasta alcanzar su cúspide con la Novena... Beethoven eres Eterno....
Excelente comentario, dicen los entendidos que la música es extraída de las dimensiones superiores de la naturaleza del cosmos, ésta 7ma sinfonía sería de la septima dimensión, del Atman.
I have no words to describe the joy this music brings to me. Beethoven, Conductor Haitink and the Royal Contertgebouw Orchestra are the best combination ever!
I love Beethoven's music and the 7th Symphony is truly remarkable. I am a dedicated amateur jazz pianist and have even been trying to play the opening theme of the 2nd movement by ear as I cannot read music. Apparently when this great work received its premiere, Beethoven had to be turned round to realise that the audience were on their feet thunderously applauding. The scene is depicted beautifully in the film "Immortal Beloved" from 1995 with Gary Oldman as Beethoven. That this great genius could be robbed of his hearing by his early 30s and yet leave what he did for humanity for all time is truly remarkable. Beethoven represents the triumph over adversity, his life was not easy, and he denied himself the stability of a loving relationship in order to dedicate himself to his music. A genius and also a heroic figure. When I improvise on jazz tunes at the digital piano in my local church I like to think that I am on a low rung of the ladder of musical creativity, a hierarchy of music which leads to the likes of Beethoven at the very top. I love it when he did variations eg Diabelli variations for piano. My favourite works of the German genius are: Symphonies 1,3,5,6,7 and 9; the piano sonatas, especially the later ones; the songs; the late quartets as performed by the very best players. Beethoven also had humour in his music too eg in the Eroica piano variations at one point. We should always encourage family and friends who don't know Beethoven's music to try it, for me it is like a lifelong friend that never lets you down. Great performance from Bernard Haitink and Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, much appreciated on a night when I could not get to sleep.
Bravo, Maestro Haitink and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra! I've been a bit obsessed with Beethoven's 7th for some time, and had the pleasure of attending the Ft. Worth Symphony Orchestra's performance of the 7th early this year. 2022 has been my personal "Year of Beethoven"; I've attended a number of concerts by both the FWSO and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and heard several Beethoven symphonies (including the symphony of symphonies, the 9th) and piano concertos. What a thrill it's been!! Though nothing beats a live performance, listening to/watching all the classical music on YTube is the next best thing. I'm grateful to all the musicians/orchestras and to YTube for providing such a rich diversity of music for us to enjoy 🥰🎵
Tears of joy rolling down my cheeks I listen to this almost everyday and the feeling is same what a great performance by all the musicians and conductor ❤❤ O Beethoven you Beauty ❤️
I remember being a kid in the car listening to my dad hum the 7th when he drove. I just lost my dad today, but I will forever have him humming the 7th in my heart. I miss him so much already.
My dad and my dad ,for some reason😅 was the only radio we have . I love it
I am very sorry for you loss. May he rest in peace.
We're sorry for your loss. May the 7th Symphony forever remind you of him.
Our Lord and our Father watch over his Soul

Here listening again and again the #7, just as I was a child. And now i am 80. Why? Because the music comes from the heavens. Regards from Costa Rica❤

He’s cool (yeah really)
I think the same.
Mahler is up there as well for sure !!!!!

There's none of the gravitas here which characterises the recording in 'The King's Speech'. Both versions are great and convincing.

고전음악 역사에서 베토벤은 삐놓을수 없는 대가이다 이것은 그의 음악이 말해준다

He could hear from heaven.

I love how the audience erupts into a coughing fit after the second movement because the didn't dare cough while the orchestra was playing
😂
We played the second movement at our wedding as the processional at a slightly quicker pace. Still married after 43 years.
We're happy to hear that 🙂
I love it, i would have never thought of using this selection. We used as the processional Brahm's variantian on theme by Haydn... married 27 years! 😃
Everything will be fine and you will shine like a rising star with great success and wealth
This composition is astounding particularly when one considers that Beethoven composed this symphony when absolutely deaf. That can, as an understatement, only be genius. Bravo!

The finale of the 7th symphony is one of my favorite Beethoven symphonic movements, it's absolutely mind-blowing.
It just takes off like a Messerschmit about 1/3 thru a graceful height of 40,000ft and unloads

Absolutely 💯
Classical music creates a beautiful picture in one's mind.I exposed my wife Classical I told her to close her eyes and draw upon a vision.

I like that the camera is so much focused on Haitink himself in his conducting of this orchestra. It becomes a memory of the importance he had in classical music for so many years. Thank you, great master.
An excellent balance between the conductor and the musicians. Both in the camera work.
How I love this second movent!!!

Wspaniały koncert, gratulacje
the precision of Haitink is exquisite. In fact it's mesmerising
This year, I heard no.7 symphony 3times.
But this is undoutedly the best one.
The ©️oncertgebouw orchertra and maestro Haitink are the one of the best in the current world.🎉❤
It’s good , impressive
I don’t know about giving the ©️any credit for the Concertgebouws excellent achievement, I haven’t followed the money trail on that one.
Most likely these people have regular jobs and do this to be a part of something great.
My favourite of LVB's symphonies.
YES!! He takes the repeats. What a bass section! Bravi!
Stunning! I have requested this piece for the fall with the orchestra I play with. What a masterpiece of a piece.
Haitink, the all time Maestro, unsurpassed, especially with this sort of repertoire, simply fantastic!
Beethoven....l'orchestra Giusta ....un
Direttore Bravo....e La Magia....Si
Ripete Per Sempre....Immortale💪🎶
I feel so lucky to have this piece played by this orchestra and conductor at my disposal anytime and anywhere.
So marvellous, no words can describe the level of talent needed to put this together. Thank you all!

I am never out of words, but Beethoven's 7th and this 2nd mvt is like hearing God's voice, if there's a God he speaks through this masterpiece. One day I'll pass away and I hope I'll be hearing this when I get to the Otherworld. Thank you to the Exquisite musicians and Maestro, may your life be full of everything Good because you make this world a better one through your music ❤❤❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️♥️

One of the best performances
Probably the best with one of
The best orchestras and a
Top class conductors
I was 10 years old the first time I heard classical music, specifically the 7th symphony part II Allegretto , It was like my brain 🧠 went 🤯, since then I started listening and doing research about this kind of music and is when I started listening this marvelous masterpieces from Beethoven, Vivaldi, Mozart , etc.
Thanks for sharing your journey with classical music.
the most wonderful piece of music
Yes. First heard it 55 yrs ago. It only gets even better.
👏👏👏 Bravissimi! Bernard Haitink & the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra! 💐💐💐
I was fortunate enough to learn and play this piece at an orchestra camp I attended in the 8th grade, such a fond memory of mine, it will be missed dearly.
No hay sinfonía mas sublime que la Séptima de Beethoven. Sus sinfonías nos hacen ver toda la trayectoria del Maestro, su tragedia, sus miedos, sus Iras, pero también sus alegrías, te hace entrar en su mente, y la Séptima es danza, rabia, lagrima y lucha...Hasta alcanzar su cúspide con la Novena... Beethoven eres Eterno....
Beethoven was without doubt one of the greatest geniuses of all time. And the 7th was a truly great work
@@MarcusEinfeld absolutly
Well said
Excelente comentario, dicen los entendidos que la música es extraída de las dimensiones superiores de la naturaleza del cosmos, ésta 7ma sinfonía sería de la septima dimensión, del Atman.
Esta música es anterior al Big-band, que se encarnó en Beethoven, como Cristo se encarnó en La Virgen María
Haitink was still energetic at that time. What a great performance.
...and then the 2nd movement hits, and I have to stop what I am doing and listen.
Sorry, deadline. Beethoven is speaking.
I have no words to describe the joy this music brings to me. Beethoven, Conductor Haitink and the Royal Contertgebouw Orchestra are the best combination ever!

Unglaublich schön! Ich liebe diese Symphonie!
There are four movements:
0:36 poco sostenuto
14:48 allegreto
22:48 presto
32:09 allegro con brio
Haitink's conduction inspires me to learn music. Ecstactic.
I love Beethoven's music and the 7th Symphony is truly remarkable. I am a dedicated amateur jazz pianist and have even been trying to play the opening theme of the 2nd movement by ear as I cannot read music. Apparently when this great work received its premiere, Beethoven had to be turned round to realise that the audience were on their feet thunderously applauding. The scene is depicted beautifully in the film "Immortal Beloved" from 1995 with Gary Oldman as Beethoven. That this great genius could be robbed of his hearing by his early 30s and yet leave what he did for humanity for all time is truly remarkable. Beethoven represents the triumph over adversity, his life was not easy, and he denied himself the stability of a loving relationship in order to dedicate himself to his music. A genius and also a heroic figure. When I improvise on jazz tunes at the digital piano in my local church I like to think that I am on a low rung of the ladder of musical creativity, a hierarchy of music which leads to the likes of Beethoven at the very top. I love it when he did variations eg Diabelli variations for piano. My favourite works of the German genius are: Symphonies 1,3,5,6,7 and 9; the piano sonatas, especially the later ones; the songs; the late quartets as performed by the very best players. Beethoven also had humour in his music too eg in the Eroica piano variations at one point. We should always encourage family and friends who don't know Beethoven's music to try it, for me it is like a lifelong friend that never lets you down. Great performance from Bernard Haitink and Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, much appreciated on a night when I could not get to sleep.
I play the second mov as a valse at my piano also.
The scene you're talking about, based on slightly tuned historical fact, is during the premiere of the 9th symphony.
@@victorross2809 Happy to be corrected, had always thought it was the 7th. It was a very good film as I recall.

Bravo, Maestro Haitink and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra! I've been a bit obsessed with Beethoven's 7th for some time, and had the pleasure of attending the Ft. Worth Symphony Orchestra's performance of the 7th early this year. 2022 has been my personal "Year of Beethoven"; I've attended a number of concerts by both the FWSO and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and heard several Beethoven symphonies (including the symphony of symphonies, the 9th) and piano concertos. What a thrill it's been!! Though nothing beats a live performance, listening to/watching all the classical music on YTube is the next best thing. I'm grateful to all the musicians/orchestras and to YTube for providing such a rich diversity of music for us to enjoy 🥰🎵

Tears of joy rolling down my cheeks
I listen to this almost everyday and the feeling is same what a great performance by all the musicians and conductor ❤❤
O Beethoven you Beauty ❤️
Tears shall never be an argument in the discussion of classical music! I will try to dry up my own tears after writing his down!
Believe me this is great music at any time, but it's great for walking, especially that last movement.
Amen.
Ausgezeichnet
🎵 Your music is a timeless treasure, a gift to the world that will be cherished and admired for generations to come. 🎁🎶
Eine schöne Symphonie!!! Gut eingespielt!!! Ganz toll!!!
El gran Director, Bernard Haitink murió a los 92 en 2022. Que descanse en paz.
The final movement... Sublime.
It cant get any better than this.
Beautiful.
