Als zelfs de 'grote' orkesten de muziek van Martinu gaan spelen... Deze componist verdient het om meer gespeeld te worden. Zijn symphonien worden nog te vaak over het hoofd gezien.
@@florinest And yet Martinu wrote most of his best known and arguably finest works in America. His style is so individual (like Bartok's) and takes some time to absorb and appreciate. Well worth persevering!
The comment posted by "Earl Archibald Campbell of Argyll" demonstrates very well how under-appreciated (and insufficiently performed) Bohuslav Martinů is.
This concert is just as wonderful as other music by the composer. And Gabetta plays it much better than other concerts I have watched with her. But I'm wondering if now we arrived in a time when the soloists even on the stage of the Berlin Philharmonic Hall don't learn their part by heart. It would be normal if the soloist takes seriously and the music and the public...
There isn't any hate. I find you have a strange perception. A soloist, who gets thousands for such a performance in my opinion has the potential to learn the part during studying it seriously. Just normal students have to perform such a concert by heart to get a Bachelor's degree after their study!
Shmuel Ashkenasi, the great Israeli violinist, once remarked to a student wondering if it would be ok to play a solo concert with the music said "It would bother me about as much as if you had your shoes untied"
In opera isn't there always the prompter? And you don't know the circumstances regarding this cellist and this performance. I once saw/heard Marilyn Horne at Carnegie Hall hold her music in a red velvet book for a semi-staged performance of "Semele" in 1985. It was one of her greatest performances.
@Benjamin BOOTHROYD I'm sure this composer would be gratified with this performance, sheet music and all. To assume that this performer did not take her "studies" seriously is absurd. How abouyt we banish the prompter from opera.
Of course we all prefer to see a performance without music. But practically speaking, it requires a huge investment (for a concerto that is not performed that often) and without a lot of experience there is always the danger of a memory lapse (particularly with complicated music like this). If requiring no music on stage means we miss out on the performance, I'll take the music on stage every time.
Berliner Philharmoniker, I would much rather see Sir Simon Rattle conduct a more popular piece by a more popular composer. Something from the Baroque Era perhaps?
Why the hate for more obscure works? It's the nature of popular works that they're already all over the place! This is a lovely piece by a composer that deserves more recognition.
@@AlexanderWollheim you're absolutly right. Martinu is a really great composers, one of my favourites actually. It's sad composers like him don't get more attention.
Not every performance should include a Mozart piano concerto. Not every opera performed should be by Puccini. Thank God major orchestras are broadening people's knowledge. You're on RUclips. Go find Simon Rattle conducing Beethoven.

Martinu is becoming more popular all the time & this is a gorgeous work!
My god. Martinu is so oddly beautiful
Simply in love with that violinist sensually talking to the camera from 1:53

Es una maravilla de complejidad y delicadeza fuerza , es una extraordinaria interprete.
wonderful cellist. one of the best classical music performers i've seen most recently. thanks for sharing this ;)
Wonderful!
Wonderful. I hope it will become a cd very soon
Großartige Cellistin!
So agree - Martinu is the great little performed composer of the 20th century. Especially in the UK. Come on Rattle!
Hardly performed at all in the U.S.

Or your struggles on the Organ perhaps.
