Eugen Jochum conductor
This was my mother's favourite symphony with Jochum conducting. She died last Saturday morning unexpectedly despite a long illness. I am absolutely devastated but listening to this makes me feel close to her. Sitting here with tears welling up. So beautiful. Mama I miss you so much. Love you.
My deepest sympathy.
@@mikedaniels3009 Thank you Mike. Music can make such a deep connection.
This music is also deeply tied to my past. The first time I heard a note of Bruckner was with Jochum conducting this symphony on Decca records. It was love at first sound that has never faded. Later I got to attend a performance of the Bruckner 4th with the Detroit Symphony. I will never forget the majesty of that evening!
So sorry for your loss .As a teenager i shared a love of music with my father. He died suddenly when i was just 18 but whenever i listen to a piece of music ( and this symphony was one of them ) that we both loved i imagine that wherever he is now, he is listening with me. That gives me stength.
@@mikedaniels3009 I am sorry for your loss. It’s a credit to your mother’s mind and spirit that she felt so connected to this beautiful work.
Listening to Bruckner's symphonies will polish your soul and put you on the path to enlightenment .

I was there! The best live that i have ever had!
Was that you at the end? Legend!! Lol
A wonderful performance from a great orchestra, led by one of the best Bruckner conductors ever.
この演奏会は聴きに行ったんだよなあ。昭和女子大人見記念講堂。前半はモーツァルトの33番。一番前の真ん中、ヨッフムの足元の席だった。今でもヨッフムの後ろ姿は目に焼き付いてる。ただ真ん中すぎて、残念ながら自分は映像に映ってない。元気に指揮してたので、この半年後に亡くなるなんて、思いもしなかった。もう一度、生で聴きたかったな。

I have been listening to this music while culminating my PhD today. It is simply incredible.
Jochum's expression at the immediate rush to applause 1:19:35 is priceless, as is his sweet smile at the orchestra. this video shows Jochum's great and deep humanity: his approach to Bruckner is one of great reverence, but jolly humor is just around the corner.
Jochum = Bruckner. For me he understood Bruckner as no other
Le premier mouvement de la 7eme est l'un des moments les importants de l'expression des représentations humaines. Avec Jochum et le Concertgebouw c'est vraiment un moment unique. D'une spiritualité à la limite du dicible.
This famous conductor understands Bruckner as no one else: this version is fantastic. As a 12 years old boy I saw Jochum conducting the Matthäus Passion (he was a specialist) in the Koninklijk Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and it was great! I will never forget this experience!
One of the best Bruckner conductors ever.
I think so, too. As for me, the Bruckner's symphonies conducted by E.Jochm are thought that they are standard .
I agree with you. Kind regards from Mexico.
Eduardo Poblete de Chile, que gran director el maestro Jochum, él realmente comprendía a Bruckner...sin lugar a dudas el mejor...muy agradecido por este aporte....un abrazo fraterno...
Why not the best Brucker conductor
@@jhkoh4355 Because there isn't a single one. Depends on how you like your Bruckner, how ideas about performance change, etc. And that specific ideas about performance don't go down the same with everyone. I loathe Celibidache's gimmickyness with a passion, but I can't get around the fact that there's a bunch of people that consider him the second coming.
Jochum one of Europe's greatest conductors had a daughter that taught piano at New England conservatory. I had a friend that was her student.
A lived performance which is the most beautiful I found on RUclips during ten years.
This is magnificent playing of great Bruckner.
00:54 - I. Allegro moderato
24:58 - II. Adagio. Sehr feierlich und sehr langsam
54:14 - III. Scherzo. Sehr schnell
01:06:25 - IV. Finale. Bewegt, doch nicht schnell
Thanks for the movement links xØx jd
Thank you.
It's wonderful to see all those great Concertgebouw-players from the seventies in this video. Masseurs on trumpet; Pieterson on 1st clarinet, Werner Herbers, oboe. Concertmaster / leader is Viktor Libeman, with Johan Kracht sharing the desk. Kracht was in the orchestra for forty years.
Matthias Maurer on viola, far right; the violist sharing his desk, Ken Hakii, is still in the orchestra. The 1st horn is Julia Studebaker.
Thanks a lot for publicizing all these names.

Jochum’ｓBruckner is ever profound, serene and sacred. My most favorite conductor for Bruckner.
What a spacious and glorious performance! I remember my teacher (2nd Wagnertuba) telling me about these concerts with Jochem, when he got home from the tour. Wonderful to find this document here on RUclips. To credit the horn section:
1st horn: Julia Studebaker
2nd horn: Paulien Goossen
3rd horn: Jaap Prinsen
4th horn: Paul van Zelm
1st Wagnertuba: Jacob Slagter
2nd Wagnertuba: Iman Soeteman
3rd Wagnertuba: Peter Steinman
4th Wagnertuba: Sharon St.Onge
This document is the greatest I have found on YT. Who wants to know what absolute passion for music is should must know it, bar a bar.
This is the best performance of the many Bruckner No. 7s. Especially the Adagio in the second movement is mysterious and draws you into the space of weightless music.
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO MAGNIFIQUE ♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏
This is simply my most favorite Symphony. All elements of it are truly sublime. Plus the enjoy the conductor's reaction to the crowd at the end of the performance.
George Shindel Me too lol... Just got to love the wild man in the audience who, most likely, was keeping some serious emotions in check until he could "let loose" epic! Love it!
Una obra monumemtal, una orquesta maravillosa y una magnifica dirección de Eugen Jochum
Welch ein hinreißender Bruckner-Dirigent Eugen Jochum doch war.
Es ist ein Rätsel, wie er das Orchester inspirierend mit Energie lädt und
damit eine Spannung erreicht, um alle Bögen dieser Welt zu formen, wenns
sein muss, ins Unendliche hinein. Das ist phänomenal und eigentlich nicht
zu begreifen.
This is really something special, Jochum conducting and the great orchestra which follows in the way he wanted them to do so. Jochum truly knows what Bruckner's music is about. I am especially touched by the way they were playing the cadenza in the first movement (ca. 20.10 min). The space and the intensity they have created is unbelievable, probably the best version I have ever heard.
Es dünkt mich, diese Sinfonie kaum je so hinreißend und gewaltig gespielt wurde. Absolut hervorragende Interpretation !
Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführung dieser großartigen und perfekt komponierten Sinfonie mit seidigen Tönen aller Streicher, brillanten Tönen aller Metallbläser und, vor allem, milden Tönen aller Holzbläser. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und fast himmlisch. Der erfahrene Maestro dirigiert das ausgezeichnete Orchester im relativ langsamen Tempo und mit sorgfältig kontrollierter Dynamik. Einfach wunderbar!
Incredible string polyphony...
My favorite symphony,great performans!
In 1934 Jochum succeeded Karl Böhm as musical director of the Hamburg State Opera and the Hamburg Philharmonic. Throughout the Nazi era, Hamburg remained, as Jochum put it, "reasonably liberal", and Jochum was even able to keep his post despite not joining the party. -wikipedia
I asked my sons to play the 2nd movement of this breath-taking symphony in my own funeral. It will be my official farewell. AA
Well as it was composed for the death of Richard Wagner, the aim fits ^^
Just as the Nazis played that movement over the radio (as recorded by the Berlin Philharmonic, conducted by Wilhelm Furtwangler) after broadcasting a completely false story about the death of their "Glorious Fuehrer" the day after he committed suicide in 1945? Think again......
I love to watch and listen one of the most authentic legends in conduction. Jochum with historical performances like this can fill one's soul with music of one of the XIX great symphonists, Bruckner.
Great and super great. 👏👏👏👏
One of the more interesting conductors to watch I think. And especially in Bruckner.
Eugen Jochum conducting the Bruckner 7th is heaven on earth.
I am dying at Jochum's reaction to the audience member who just had to be first to scream "BRAVO!" at the end. I wonder if that startled him.
Jochum ascended to heaven and became immortal.
You're being extremely presumptuous. Neither you nor I knows whether Eugen Jochum went to Heaven or to Hell after he died.
Best performance
by a great conductor!!!
First time having seen Maestro Jochum conduct. The Concertgebouw played magnificently and the audio/video is very good for 1986. A beautiful concert. Thanks for posting!
This symphony makes
my heart warm and
warmer.
Thank you for posting this magical concert of maestro's , 'for the ages'!!!!!
The second movement of this Symphony is the most touching to the soul, no doubt Bruckner here was interceding some of the unspeakable things with the LORD. South Africa
Yes, feel Divine

Fantastic movement majestuoso con emozione. My grandpa too used to wet his index finger to leaf through l Echo d Oran !!!!!
Perfect. Thank you.
Jochum is in touch with the essence of Bruckner. The celestial nobility of the adagio is perfectly rendered. The rich spatiality of Bruckner’s symphonic writing comes truly alive in this performance. That crucial climax of the adagio is more successfully brought out by Karajan though - the triplets in the string section from 46:45 are accentuated more and played with a surging power that challenges the horns and sends shivers up the spine, whereas in this one they are swamped a bit. Sorry for my Bruckner nerd-out.
Concerning the "crucial climax of the Adagio," possibly the recording quality here is what "swamps" the section? One never knows which dials the engineers twirled or did not twirl!
@@decimusausonius1765 Good point
So beautiful and expressive! Magnificent performance, allowing each chord space and clarity, like clouds dissipating to show the sunshine!
Eduardo Poblete de Chile, extraordinario director , el mejor dirigiendo a Bruckner, muy agradecido por este aporte....un abrazo fraterno...
O andamento sereno, tranquilo e profundo expõe de modo eloquente o verdadeiro Bruckner.
Faltam-me palavras para comunicar meus sentimentos.
E assim, somente direi:
BRAVO! BRAVÍSSIMO!
Simply the most interesting performance I found on YT ten years long. It is a Lesson of art, and life.
Wait til you hear Celibidache Bruckner 4....that Adagio....the Coda....OMyGod!
Listen also to Gergiev with Munich Philarmonic , very different from what they play here , still very impressive.
Just beautiful .. Dankeschon!
Il grande Jochum! Ogni sua direzione è quantomeno molto buona
Very fine recording.
Fantastisch!!!;
Excelso!

Wonderful! Great to see the great Jochum in action. One of my prized possessions is his complete Symphonies, plus Te Deum. I prefer other conductors for this and that Symphony, but you can't go wrong with Jochum!
I bought his box and fell in love 30 years ago. but never saw him live
till today
sitting on his chair he dances like Bernstein
Sublime. It was very impressive for me to see this video of Jochum directing Bruckner. I had no opportunity to see him at a live concert.
Thanks for sharing. Kind regards from Mexico.
Thank you for the upload.
Beautiful
当時、中学生だった僕はこの名演に吸い込まれていました。クラシックの世界に誘った演奏です。
Interessantes Filmdokument!
1986/9/17
live in Tokyo
I was much moved by it at Hitomi auditorium. I believe ever it was really one of the best performances of 7th. Many thanks to Mr. Ulrich Dűnnerbach.H.Yokoyama
@@4580h 1980's were good periods of Japan.
@@jhkoh4355 I really think so , too.
The most spacious rendering since Celibidache in Berlin 1991. Grandioso!
This is 1986
@@frankstein9982 heheheh
I am always pleased to hear the music.
meraviglioso il mondo della musica nonci propone più simili giganti addio no ben tornato passato
ggl.TRANS. wonderful the world of music nonci proposes more similar giants goodbye no well back past
Perfect!..
Sein letzter Auftritt in Japan mit Amsterdam ist sehr gut！
Less than a year before EG's death. Two of my favourite recordings are the Brahms piano concertos with Gilels.
あの伝説の８番と並ぶ、最高のブルックナー演奏を日本で遺してくれたヨッフム翁。ありがとうございました。
already the best version ever IMO.
What Jochum does with the Scherzo is quite interesting. Bends it perfectly. Uniquely. I must admit, however, I still don't understand what's going on with the Finale. The finish is spectacular!
I didn't understand why he makes this huge retardation in scherzo ( at 56:03). IMHO after that you won't have enough contrast in the middle part.
Es la misma pieza con la que debutó como director (en 1926).
Listened to it again. Better than Wand, I think.
Michelangelo says Otto Klemperer is finer than
Eugen Jochum.
somebody else will say Karajan.
others would choose others.
I'd say Bernstein, but only for couple of symphonies.
I think Jochum had the only full set on the market
40 years ago
when he first led me to this most magnificent Symphonist
ANTON BRUCKNER.
It's his music, and every conductor has hir special view
:
it's like picking.out the best strawberry in the box to say who's best.
They all taste good.
xØx
jd
...Exactly, to love strawberries means to love them all...:)
Bernard Haitink (with this orchestra) had the complete set 40 years ago. And Haitink also included the Symphony No. 0, which Jochum never recorded. Jochum was Haitink's mentor when he was named the new director of the Concertgebouw in 1962 and shared the podium with Haitink for two years.
Jochum's recordings were for many years regarded as the greatest. In my view this still so, the tempi vary slightly and is fairly slow. He recorded all symphonies on DG. Siegmund von Hausegger was his teacher a fervent conductor of Bruckner.
Addi - sublime!!! 🥲 25:00
At 45:00, one hears the sonority of the organ, Bruckner's instrument. Hoomeyow!!
1:19:33
Priceless reaction from Jochum 🤣
Live Concert at Hitomi Memorial Hall,Tokyo,1986.
The ending of the first movement the last two minutes is JUST OK.
Heilig...
Unfortatelly, the record quality of the sound isn't the best. But, It is a great sound and interpration. I know that the in live, in the concert hall, was a great experience.
翌年には亡くなられているんですね。白鳥の歌です。
GGL.TRANSLATE The following year he died. It is a swan song.
Jochum uses the debated cymbal clash in the adagio. The only occasion, I think, on which Bruckner employed a cymbal.
Nope, climax of the 8th Symphony adagio too, except there the debate is over one or about three or something
in Adagio of the 8th there are 2.
Yes, and the fact that B, decided to employ cymbals (twice) at the climax of the 8th Adagio convinces me that he surely MUST have approved of their use in the 7th whether it originally was his idea or not. I'm always disappointed when cymbals are not used in the 7th as I feel the purely speculative belief that it was somehow not the real wish of the composer is contradicted by both the available evidence and simple logic ! The 'not valid' marking could easily have been written by one of his well-meaning friends and supporters. At worst the cymbals do absolutely no harm to the music and at best create additional power and visual 'theatre' to the great climax in the concert hall ?
Музыка Брукнера завораживает. Вот Шостаковича что-то не тянет слушать, хотя в своё время 14,15 симфонии я очень любил... премьеры в нашем городе состоялись... Прокофьев вот состоялся, а Шнитке что-то забыли совсем...
Где нужно широкое свободное дыхание или выделение отдельных тонких деталей, Йохум бесподобен. А вот где надо погромыхать и нагнать жути - чувствуется его излишне аполлонический способ восприятия музыки.
Does anyone know when---what year--this was performed? It's fantastic, the best version, for me, of the 7th. Thanks for posting this.
1986.
Was will “ER” uns sagen? What does he want to say to us, the listeners?
SIT DOWN AND LISTEN!!!!!!!!!
私が知らないだけのはなしですが……
ヨーロッパのホールはよく見るが日本のホールで指揮者が舞台上手から出てくるのを初めてみた。
1:19:35 great little reaction.
Wann, mit welchem Orchester und wo wurde es aufgeführt?
Es ist das Concertgebouw-Orchester in Japan. Wann ist mir nicht bekannt.

1:19:36
When was this?
When?
Whoever puts ads in the middle of classical music.....
55:00 HOLY FUCK
ヨッフムの楽器。アムステルダムコンセルトヘボウの最終型。カップリングのモーツァルト33交響曲も素晴らしい。この後、このコンビは本拠地アムステルダムでブルックナー５番交響曲をして終わります。むろん、ブルックナー５番
も素晴らしいです。
そしたらヨッフム以降、アムステルダムコンセルトヘボウにはカリスマが出ず、アンサンブルもダメダメです。優柔不断なハイティンクはともかく、シャイーの罪は戦犯ものです。
佐々木伸一 シャイー以外にもいろんなオケで戦犯いますよね 笑
しかし、最後まだ響き残っているのにすぐ叫ぶ奴もまた戦犯。名演ぶち壊しですね。
ヨッフムも舌ペロって出しちゃって
Maybe no one can reach to Bruckner
58:32
1:19:37 = LOL
How about Celi?
The most annoying geature of concerts
is the break between movements
where the audience cough or fart or chack their phone.
Is it possible to edit.out these audience-breaks?
and more than BTW
thank you.
I doubt folks in 1986 were checking their phones...
@@frankstein9982 I agree. For myself my smartphone is OFF before til after concerts/ theatres. RDS
