It would be great to have some words from the musicians on the backstage after the concert. Like they do after football matches. It would be very inspiring for other musician colleagues from all over the world. Love HR! Bravi!
You have never played in an orchestra, right? Never going to happen, two reasons 1) sports stars earn millions and can afford taxis home etc 2) musicians concentrate 100% of the time during each 3 hour rehearsal call and again during each public performane. Concert ends, most just want to run for their tram/bus to get home.
@@foveauxbear athletes also concentrate 100% of the time in their games. They also want to go home or enjoy the moment. It's possible for a short interview. They aren't dying after a concert, just tired.

Yes, "Ach du lieber, mein schatz"!!!!! "Overwhelming" might be about the best word I could use to describe this music AND orchestral performance!!! How could these great musicians "endure" such a lengthy & demanding piece of music??? The MENTAL & PHYSICAL FATIGUE must be enormous!!! ALL the soloist's passages were unbelievably gorgeous!! I especially loved the ones by the concertmeister (violin), the "Cor Anglais" or English Horn, & the outstanding young man on the French Horn, among many others too! My "difibrulator" almost blew a gasket! This orchestra must be considered one of the very FINEST of any, not that anyone could really make such a judgement!!! I'm still "recoiling" from what I just heard! My love affair with classical music has has become "more passionate" than ever, even at my age of 81! "Gesundheit"!!!!!
Imagine the fatigue of the composer after this too, can't imagine how someone can compose like that, that orchestral counterpoint is so sophisticate... Yes, this is one of the best orchestras in the world (if not the best) and this conductor knows his job, great conductor, perfect tempo.
@@m.2456which is the same thing, almost….if you are one of the best football players in Argentina, Brazil, Germany, Holland, Italy, France, etc…probably you are going to be one of the best in the whole world.
Sincercely one of the best performances of Heldenleben of Richard Strauss.Great orchestra in size and even in performance.The conductor is simply amazing and precise with a lovely extra latin tricks to the orchestra that warms the atmosphere.Thank you I enjoyed a lot.
Wunderschöne Aufführung dieses farbenprächtigen Meisterwerks mit perfekter Synchronisierung aller Instrumente. Alle Spieler, besonders der Konzertmeister, sind wahre Helden!

welch orchestersprache malerisch bildlnich in einer ureigenen leidenschaflicher sprache zum traditionellen kontra buergerschreck herrlich hervorgebracht
This is the Best performance I found in the internet. Bravo for the whole orchestra. You made this wonderful piece, one of my favourite compositions! Thank you for that!
A World class performance from a World class orchestra. I'm a big fan of Richard Strauss, I would say his music is a combination of the late romantic and the dissonance of the modernists, very powerful. Bravo!
I am fascinated with relationships between orchestras and conductors. All of the voices are essential to make a performance great and this is an example of each section complementing the others. This is one of two orchestra-conductor relationships in which I find Ein Heldenleben live!
Andrés Orozco-Estrada's commercial recording of Ein Heldenleben (which I have not heard) got a very positive review. Based on what I hear on this recording, I can understand why. He is doing an excellent job here as well with this great orchestra. This is a performance (in excellent recording quality) that can hold its head high with the greatest commercial recordings (Karajan, Beecham and Haitink - to mention my favorites).
Andrés: Eres el orgullo colombiano. Créeme, lo eres para los amantes de la música verdadera y estamos fascinados con tu talento musical. You are the Colombian pride. Believe me, we, real music lovers, are fascinated with your artistic talent.
Just catching up to this amazing performance! I can ignore the less than fabulous video direction for the sake of the excellent orchestra and conductor. Hi, Thaddeus! Going to miss Herr Seidenberg.
I love the HR Sinfonieorchester and its RUclips videos. I also very much like videos of the BBC Proms. And yet... The producer in Frankfurt does love showing an occasional shot of the top of the organ pipes and then slowly coming down. Likewise in London the producer simply must show us the gallery (at the top) and slowly descend. I wonder, could these two gents or ladies be in some way related? And is there some sort of religious significance to all this? I think we should be told. Fabulous stuff, all the same. :-)
I'll never understand why camera operators or producers will spend any amount of time away from the ensemble. There is SO much to capture. We don't need to see the hall, show the live players.
Fantastic playing, fantastic sound, fantastic conducting. Just for curiosity I invite you music lovers a compare this sound with the sound of the same orchestra playing the 5th Schostakovitch directed by David Afkham. Tell me what you think.
I'll not disparage an acknowledged masterpiece; I'll only say that I enjoy the "Alpine Symphony" and especially the "Domestic Symphony" to a greater degree. I do retain a sentimental attachment to "Heldenleben" however, as in my youth I heard its opening every week as the theme for a popular radio drama, I'm not sure which one, but it was quite impressive then. Perhaps only familiarity dulled its effect over time, but in any case I did enjoy this fine performance of it.
Amazing performance as always by this ensemble. I would be livid as a conductor, however, if I saw the camera operators next the percussionists as they were. They are inside the ensemble. Heads would roll.
I find it interesting that at the Golden Mean of the piece (29 minutes) the Don Juan hero's theme appears in the horns. I wonder if that was intentional.
Yes it was. Strauss composes a lot of his other themes into is other pieces. He does this in his other tone poems as well. As well, he actually quotes from all of his other tone poems in this piece.
Awesome performance of this great work by this great orchestra and perfect conductor. Also an example to all orchestras around the world and the national Television to enable a public which could not afford either the price to attend these concerts or are too far to travel to Frankfurt, by uploading their performances. BBC could take example instead of having its greedy way of either forbidding people to watch their program in different regions of the planet and of forbidding the upload of their televised presentation especially during the Proms. This work is quite unjustly criticized by so called music specialists. Always amusing to hear in the 5th part of the work Strauss using excerpts of 9 his works (opera Guntram (eight times), his symphonic poems Don Quixote (five times), Don Juan (four), Death and Transfiguration (four), Macbeth (three), Also sprach Zarathustra (three) and Till Eulenspiegel (once). The lieder "Traum durch die Dämmerung", Op 29/1 and "Befreit", Op 39/1, are quoted once each). Superb solo violin and incredible mellowness in the 8 Horns unison.
jvdesuit1 I agree with the opinions you have expressed. But above all the last paragraph I found extremely interesting, my knowledge of Strauss's music being rather narrow - just the tone poems, the oboe concerto, the 2 horn concertos & the Four Last Songs.
If you're interested in operas there are 4 major operas by Richard Strauss to be viewed (I put a link to each one if available on youtube): 1/Elektra, ruclips.net/video/jq1qfG0r4LE/видео.html and for the most famous Elektra of all times, Birgit Nilsson :ruclips.net/video/nfLUtGqaM5M/видео.html. I possess also the audio of a performance given in Paris under Strauss's specialist Karl Bôhm with Nilsson, Varnay, Rysanek and Sotin. It was on April 25,1975. The performance was given in honor of Germany's President Walter Scheel in the presence of the French President Valery Giscard d'Estaing. Approximately mid way to the performance there was a general electric failure in the district of the old opera house; it lasted nearly 20 minutes. During that time the auditorium only lit by the internal electrical system, the two presidents went on discussing until the performance resumed. At that time we had a president which had a real culture, not like the fools we've got later with Mitterrand and consorts! If you wish a copy of the cd, it won't be a problem to make it for you. Unfortunately at that time vidéo was at it premises. 2/Salome (inspired by Oscar Wilde's play), This recording because Böhm again is the conductor but it's a movie performance, ruclips.net/video/ildwhas43sY/видео.html 3/Rosenkavalier, Two magistral performances of this fantastic opera: Covent Garden with the great Te Kanawa bringing you in tears at the end of the first act: ruclips.net/video/3D7abQTy71I/видео.html And The historical performance by Karajan and Schwarzkopf: ruclips.net/video/HAw4iDDWby8/видео.html 4/Capriccio, Strauss's last opera ruclips.net/video/EOFki9ykmBs/видео.html . There is a fantastic production by the Paris Opera house with Renée Fleming unfortunately not available on youtube but availabe on dvd. It can never be exported because it uses the particular configuration of the Old Paris opera which behind the stage has a Foyer which communicates with the main stage whence giving a full perspective of 50m with the auditorium reflecting in the huge miror at the back of the foyer which very intelligently Robert Carsen uses at the end of the opera in particular. The main theme of the libretto is : what is more important music or words in an opera and for the countess it will be the dilemma whom will she choose between her two suitors, the musician or the poet; at the end she wont choose.
Eng fantastesch Musek, déi, obschonn mat enger onbestreidecher Religiositéit duerchgesat ass, vun enger Persoun ganz wäit vun transzendentalen a reliéise Raimlechkeete geschmaacht a appréciéiert ka ginn. D'Klangarchitektur ass hei virun allem eng Therapie fir d'Sënner
Un sommet du postromantisme servi par une phalange et un chef remarquables. L''enthousiasme de ces musiciens (regardez attentivement la flûte solo, la Salamanquaise Clara Andra de la Calle) est communicatif, et le public ne s'y trompe pas. Seule remarque : les caméras. Mais le son est excellent pour un youtube. Bienheureuse cité de Francfort ! un conseil : abonnez-vous.
A very good performance, even if, strangely, the orchestra seems to me, slightly undersized, with 7 and not 8 doublebasses and a percussionist (suspended cymbals) in minus. I've already noticed similar things in the videos of Scriabin's "Poem of Ecstasy" and "Prometheus", conducted by Markus Stenz (in this case without the organist, too). Maybe I'm wrong?
It would be great to have some words from the musicians on the backstage after the concert. Like they do after football matches. It would be very inspiring for other musician colleagues from all over the world. Love HR! Bravi!
this is one of the best ideas I've read on youtube. I will comment it on every video they post until they start doing it :)
Orchestras are not leveraging the information age. We should be able to see in an app who's playing that day at the very least.

Sorry, watching this video again, I've realized exactly 8 double-basses!

The whole piece could be used in some new star wars movie.
Star Wars: A Hero's Life. Or I should say: A Jedi's Life.
