Well I am the weirdo with an opinion here BUT: Would be weird he wouldn't be. The Conductor is responsible for keeping the orchestra together AND getting the emotions he wants out of theire play. All these, to the not classical trained eye weird looking gestures and movements translate directly into some sort of different play in each musician.

@@freschi9934 hi, classical musician here! in general, professional orchestras kind of conduct themselves, and the musicians mostly only rely on the conductor for special cues (starting the music, in pauses, a soloist's entrance, etc.). a BIG part of a conductor's job is being showy for the audience, and you can really see that here. not undermining his actual conducting either, it's super important, and he definitely put a lot of work into it to make it super emotional. i'd say that the conductor is putting a ton of emotion in both because of the piece/players and because of the stage aspect of it all.
Been there. It's the BEST seat in the house. The whole stage space is a sound shell pointing forward, floor, the chair is air is vibrating. It's quite the thrill, and you get PAID!
I saw this in person. It commemorated the 20th anniversary of 9/11, and the first performance at the Met Opera since COVID started. The opening was so powerful, so many tears shed.

Mozart's dies irae sounds like a record of what someone thinks the days of wrath would be like. Verdi's version sounds like the actual days of wrath. Can't beat Mozart's lacrimosa though
Somewhere on youtube i read, that Mozart's dies irae describes the day o wrath seen from above (maybe God's perspective) and Verdi's dies irae sounds like experiencing it on earth. Neber forgot that comment.

This song doesn't express anger, but rather terror for the righteous wrath god by all rights should impose against us, knowing we, cradled in our filth as we are, don't deserve a single ounce of God's Grace or Mercy
I love music with the expressions that you can feel even though its not performing currently or something that just leaves a feeling in your body and mind.

One of the best nights of my life was going with my siblings to see Verdi's Requiem performed by the SONA at the Walton Arts Center in Fayetteville AR. I got tickets by my sister's recommendation and didn't know anything about what the performance would be. Sitting near the front rows as this was blasting into my soul and laughing out of bewildered joy was amazing.
Oh to be a troubled genius poet who is going mad writing their masterpiece during a storm and having this play as their descent into madness reaches a fever point.
When I see this, I understand why some people in the past were absolutely terrified listening to this. If you've never witnessed this masterpiece live, you have absolutely no idea how powerful, how majestic, how intimidating it sounds. It's like getting punched by god himself.
I’m learning the timpani part to Verdi’s requiem. Lots of counting and rests, but this portion of the requiem makes it worth it ☺️. Love the bass drum part too

Perfectly phrased
To be fair Verdi's Lacrimosa is equally amazing in its own right, just different.
Howells has the best Salvator Mundi and Michael Haydn's opening movement is beautiful (it heavily influenced Mozart)
Mozart only wrote the first 8 bars of lacrimosa though-

They just did the Mahler 2 and now this! The MET Orchestra and Choir on FIRE. They are used to doing Verdi every year but this had to be a treat.

THAT BASS DRUM! Unbelievable, louder than any recording I've ever heard, and resonant too! At least tied with Solti and Toscanini in my opinion.
My God! What a performance!!! ( reminds me to tears when my husband - solo tympanist- played it) Buenos Aires- Arg.
