Thank you :) www.patreon.com/cmrr // en.tipeee.com/cmrr Among Schubert's works, Furtwängler prefers the two most deeply Schubertian symphonies: the "Unfinished" of 1822 and the great Symphony in C major. There is a secret link between the two works; the "Unfinished", a deliberately conceived two-movement fragment, is the negative projection of the huge C major opus. Since the first performance of the B-minor Symphony in Vienna in 1865, the livid major-minor opposition, the suffocating trombone passages and the veiled theme have been thought to hint at death. Furtwängler made this metaphysical aspect transparent in his wide-ranging, powerful and meaningful interpretations. The desolation of the Schubertian world still resounds in the distant echo of the ländler, the melody of the second theme of the first movement. The present recording was made by the radio station Sender Freies Berlin during a concert of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra that Furtwängler conducted on February 10, 1952 in the Titania-Palast, the orchestra's fallback area.

So many conductors choose a tempo for the first movement that is too fast. Here Furtwängler nails it and is rewarded with a truly inspiring performance that conveys all the drama and theatre in Schubert's best known symphony.
Vollendete und wunderschöne live Aufführung dieser unvollendeten Sinfonie und perfekt komponierten Ouvertüre mit gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der unvergleichliche Maestro dirigiert das weltklassige Orchester in idealen Tempi und mit sorgfältig kontrollierter Dynamik. Die verbesserte Tonqualität ist auch erstaunlich hoch als originale Aufnahmen von fast siebzig Jahren vor. Alles ist mehr als wunderbar!
Many thanks for this New Mastering : Furtwängler with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra : always magnificent and very impressive performances. A marvelous rendition of Schubert's Unvollendete.
Maestro Furtwangler was scapegoated in my opinion, by the allies after WW2. Yes, he did not leave Germany like Erich Kleiber but he was not a Nazi and have read stories about how he helped Jewish musician escape... Yet, Maestro Karajan who did join the Nazi Party escaped mostly unscathed... Maybe Maestro Furtwangler was naive in certain ways but I did not think he deserved to be painted as a Nazi sympathizer.... Without a doubt one of my favorite conductors along with Bruno Walter.
Thanks Gene Kim. Totally agree! Furtwangler was unfairly treated by the allies (mainly the Americans) after the war. The British, who actually had a little more connection and knowledge of events, were apparently some what less ill disposed toward him after the war. Furtwangler was and remains 67 years after his death, an utterly unique artist. And yes absolutely, Bruno Walter was the very soul of lyricism.
N'oublions pas que nous devons très certainement au maestro Furtwangler l'existence de l'Orchestre Philarmonique de Vienne de nos jours. Selon ce que j'ai lu, il s'est opposé à Hitler qui lui a ordonné de fusionner, devrais-je dire assimiler, à l'Orchestre Philarmonique de Berlin. Il fallait certainement du courage pour contrarier Hitler...
Thanks from Marietta, GA. Superb sounds as always from F and the BP. The deep resonance and pathos from the strings section is chilling. This interpretation is unparalleled in my opinion.

Me parece que la principal característica de la música de Schubert es la de transmitirnos un sentido de trascendencia, que nos llega directa e inmediatamente al alma, con más facilidad que el sentimiento de lucha y triunfo que nos transmite Beethoven.
I can’t stand the impertinent Fürtwangler haters who always appeal to unfounded political accusations, refusing to consider all the evidence, to assasinate this man’s character and genius. Dave Hurwitz chief amongst them.
His criticism, always disguised in kitsch musicological arguments, stands no chance in the face of the pure emotion and unapologetic transcendence that Fürtwangler’s interpretations always evoke.
Hola a todos, tengo una curiosidad que me gustaría resolver, estas grabaciones me parece que se escuchan muy bien para ser de aquellos años...os parece lo mismo a vosotros...? A que se debe ...? A algún nuevo proceso de restauración que permite esta calidad...? Agradecería mucho que si alguno de vosotros sabe la respuesta, la compartiera...Muchas gracias.
Then explain why Schubert actually did begin composing a scherzo for the third movement. If I remember correctly, two pages survive in full score, and there are piano sketches for much of the remainder, needing only some music for the trio.
He abandoned it, however. Considering the size and scope of the following Symphony, the 9th, it is only logical to conclude that FSch considered it finished.
Tengo otra pregunta: por qué algunas respuestas vienen con la indicación "traducir al español" y otras NO...!!!??? Sería estupendo que lo fueran todas, no os parece...!!!??? Saludos.
THE ERROR IN THE NUMBERING OF SCHUBERT'S SYMPHONIES There is growing agreement among conductors and musicologists that idea of the numbering Schubert's symphonies only adds to the confusion, since the chronology and the numbering of the compositions has been misleading a. It owed more to the commercial comfort of the publishing houses and the general ignorance of the critics, and that the real order of the compositions has not always been respected.

Thanks. Good remastering. Can you be more specific on dates and location of those recordings.

That Andante heals all life’s pain.
Una JOYA !! Maravillosa interpretación! Excelente Furtwangler, un regalo para el mundo.

Fantastic and convincing interpretation. WF at his best!

Superb...it's not how long a person is practicing...it's the way a person is practicing. This music is always Amazing!!
Wonderful. No conductor quite like Furtwangler.

Thankfully his friend Yehudi Menuhin defended him against those types who now show themselves to be much worse than he was accused of.
Superb! very deep and emotional

EXTRAORDINARIE , EXQUISITE PRODIGIEUX , MAGNIFIQUE

C'est LA grande version de Furtwangler. Pas facile à trouver ! Bravo.
Celle de 1944 est un peu trop sous côtée à mon avis, mais c’est une question de point de vue.
@@Sofronichrist Tu as raison, celle de 44 est magnifique. Respect.
Magnifique quelle respiration toute l'emotion remplit l'espace un bonheur sans fin.
Fantastic interpretation! Very emotional ❤Also strongly recommended Mravinskiy ! Unique interpretation, very deep emotion . ❤
Franz Peter SCHUBERT! !!!!o divino VIENENSE! !!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
One of the best ever.
Leitura definitiva da obra performance insuperável !
Thank you from Meadville Pennsylvania USA 👍
Wow! Thank you.
Absolutely enchanting and beautiful... THANKS FOR POSTING THIS 👍
This is fantastic! The tempo is very similar the Sinopoli’s, which I love!
Marvelous. Thanks. ❤
Excelsa interpretación, verdaderamente una joya !!!!!
Me parece que la principal característica de la música de Schubert es la de transmitirnos un sentido de trascendencia, que nos llega directa e inmediatamente al alma, con más facilidad que el sentimiento de lucha y triunfo que nos transmite Beethoven.
I agree and definitely see how this mindset later influenced Anton Bruckner.
Bravo!
Besser geht´s nicht !!!
Amaizing.
Thanks.
How did you get such a great clear sound from this recording? Thank you!
Andante con moto, tempo parfait !

I totally agree with you. People who criticise Furtwängler for his time in N*zi Germany have no brain... but they will never learn.
Many of them now can be seen as much worse than the worst he was accused of!
Брависсимо👏👋🙏
