Google comes naming off different people as geniuses, giving their IQs...Tell you the truth, Orchestras and the maestro like this playing individually, coming together as one, is the biggest genius!!! Brilliant. Don't leave me Beethoven. I am crying and nice gift to me.. thank you Guys.
I pray for the year when this wonderful symphony No.6 'The Pastoral' will be recognized in the classicfm Hall of Fame and make my dream come true for it to reach the No. 1 slot where it should be. I'll keep voting for it anyway. I'm English but I enjoy all Beethovens Symphonies. What a wonderful composer he was.
I’m American and all our composers were garbage. Same is mostly true for the English. The pinnacle of composition was a pan-continental affair. America and England pulled more than their weight in other spheres of accomplishment, but the continent gifted the world with the most complete form of sonic beauty.
No tengo palabras para describir esta cadenas de emociones queme provoca esta sinfonía,la paz campreste y sus sonidos,los pájaros,la tormenta, inconfundible y genial ,maravilloso Bethoven.

Magnifica. Che impegno da parte dei componenti l'orchestra! Si direbbero essi stessi trasportati dalle note che sgorgano dagli strumenti. Musica che esprime con pienezza l'intimità dell'essere e la gioia di vivere.

Oh, yes 41:00 is the most magical moment of this performance. And you see it in the conductors face. As if the whole symphony was nothing nut a journey to this very moment. I am always mesmerized also at 32:38, the peaceful melody after the storm, when the birds finally starting to sing again.
I somehow have an ear to this symphony along with symphony 9 from Beethoven. For me, 4th to 5th movement gives me a picturesque of pastoral of hard thunder lightning raining in which I feel very vividly through the movement or at least what Beethoven wanted to convey through the notes of classical instruments, I can feel it really I really can feel it. From there, 5th ends everything with elevated of sun raying the pastoral, figuratively transmitting to the audiences of how mighty God's lights making the area sunny after all the weathering. I purely feel it despite all the odds of raised in pop cultures. Truly, I find 4th and 5th movements as I described above. I feel and understand why French King had himself as a sun king after all, sun that makes the most impact in our lives. 5th movement has that feel of classical color in periods of going into romantical period.
Yes, a truly magnificent performance which, for me, cleared away many cobwebs of over-familiarity. At first, though, I felt that the recording's stereo image was lacking; it had a huge hole in the middle. It came good, however, when I flipped the phase-reverse switch on my amplifier. I can't tell if the problem was a local one or it's an error in the streamed file, but if others have the same impression - and are able to reverse the phase - I'd suggest trying it.
Of all Beethoven's symphonies the 6th is the one I never hear. Last time I heard it was live, in a concert hall, and the conductor took it so slowly that it went on for almost an hour and I, for the first time in my life, felt asleep! I was curious about what Estrada could do with it and, already knowing what the man is capable of, I was not surprised. For the first time I was able to listen to this from top to bottom without decaying interest and not a hint of boredom. The man is a genious! Also helps a lot the quality of the orchestra and the almost miraculous sound recording that let us hear all the harmonies and everything that goes on. But you must agree that the 6th, when compared with the others (notably the 4th and the 3rd) is quite boring and bland.
Honda412000 ~ I have to respond to the contrary re "quite boring and bland" sir. Perhaps it's about the life experience of the listener though. If you adore spending leisure time in nature, giving yourself time to breathe in the lavish subtleties of sound, scent, flora and nuances of soft breezes carrying your thoughts and spirit upward to the blue sky where no man-created problems exist--at least not when Beethoven was alive :-) --the Pastoral Symphony becomes a total tribute to that experience. It does not fail IMO. Since the interpretation of music and art is lies with the beholder I can also appreciate your point of view. Perhaps your feeling of relaxation to the point of sleeping was exactly what Beethoven wanted to achieve??? I think that's why many listen to this to relax before retiring at night or as the final music they may hear as they are "crossing over". Just a thought...
Adding to my previous reply--I personally felt this Maestro rushed through too many important phrases such that it made me anxious and then annoyed at times when I could not fully appreciate the note values and phrasing. My favorite section began at the conclusion of the thunderstorm--from that point to the conclusion, Estrada's delivery was perfect--especially the attention he gave to final bars bringing the preceding movements to a meaningful conclusion!
@@JL-jw1nn Music is a most mysterious thing! A train of multiform airwaves with ever varying frequency and intensity hits our bodies and, in each one of us who were blessed with the love and understanding, evokes all sorts of emotions and sensations, visions of forms and colors (the Greeks called it synesthesia). But differently in each one of us. Music is a fleeting thing. A symphony only exists when is played, otherwise is nothing but a lot of black dots in sheets of paper. A painting masterpiece can remain a masterpiece for the rest of its days because it can't change (unless in a Stephen King's novel). A painting is a painting is a painting. A musical masterpiece can only be a masterpiece if played by the best and only during the time it's being played. What you feel when listening to Beethoven's 6th is not what I, and I dare to say, what any other music lover feels. Music is so personal and subjective! When I said above that I was put to sleep in a live concert by the 6th was not, as you imply, by bliss, but by boredom. But only because the orchestra was bad, the maestro worst and the music just went plodding along without end. The 6th is not my favorite, though. I agree with you that Andrés rush along when playing Beethoven. I invite you to read a small comment I made after listening (viewing) one of my favorites, the 7th, where he kind of "harmed" (I would not go as far as say murdered) the 2nd movement, on of the most beautiful pages Beethoven wrote (in my opinion). Perhaps Beethoven is not his "cup of tea".

Well JR I agree with you to say this I enjoy for instance: John Williams (American ) wonderful composer. Also Samuel Barber (American) also a wonderful composer. Both of those are well respected in England. May I also stand up for my English composers (Edward Elgar) you cant deny he's not a true great. Also (R.V.W. Ralph Vaughan Williams) what's wrong with these two. Your American composers are great as my two English composers are great. If I enjoy a piece of music I don't care who composes it or what nationality. I love music for what joy it gives me. My decision to choose. Don't you agree?
Hallo HR, danke für's hochladen. Wie schafft Ihr eigentlich, dass das umsonst ist? 😀Ich bin Ingenieur, wenn Ihr auch einmal 'nen Tipp braucht, fragt gerne!
22:35 The awful way this was shot by the camera man is driving me crazy! “A great flute solo is coming up, so let’s zoom into the giant organ behind the orchestra”. What the hell, man? 🧐🤨
Is this for anyone else their favorite LvB symphony? I probably prefer it a bit slower, but this is interesting. For me, the most moving passage in all of Western music begins here around 10:00.
This is absolutely my ideal piece of heaven. I love listening to it. (Hugh MacDonald) when, like now I'm stressed out, I listen and I'm calm again no tension. I call it my relaxation kind of music. Beethoven works for me. I've grown up listening to it when my father used to put Beethoven No.6 on I knew I was a classical fan for life. Well done Beethoven.
All of Beethoven's are just perfection - not a single note which could possibly be improved - and if you actually listen to them from 1 - 9 (and all his music), you can pick out themes which he's developing over time. 5 and 9 are obviously the most well known, i wish that at bare minimum 6 and 7 got a little more love, though i'd put 1-9 and all his music as "listen to without any sort of multitasking before you die or you're being a real fucking idiot" list P.S. Check out "Voices of Music" for flawless classical, and their 4 seasons with Alana Youseffian is just flawless - she's heart-stopping in that performance!
My late Father exposed me to most of his Symphonies in my childhood. I remember them all. But for me the Pastorale is the best (as you say), the sweetest.
Wieder und wieder höhere ich mir genau diese Interpretation an, sie gibt mir Kraft und entspannt mich gleichzeitig und hilft mir wirklich sehr all die Schrecklichkeiten unserer Zeit besser ertragen zu können... DANKE dafür...
Exactly the same with me. Heute zum x-ten Mal - nach getaner Gartenarbeit mit "Gott-sei-Dank-daß-es-wieder-regnet". Das hrSO mit seinen fabelhaften Holzbläsern incuding 2 Naturhörnern passt so schön zur Stimmung dieses grauen Montags.
Das war der junge Beethoven (Scherz). Es ist sehr schön, dass ihre kleine Tochter so eine wunderschöne Musik hört. Meine Enkeltochter Lilly ist aber auch sehr daran interessiert, was der Opa für eine Musik hört und daß er vor allem lieber Musik hört, als Fernseh zu schauen
Bellissimo crescere con questa meravigliosa musica .... Musica fiori ..la natura .!!! è vita... Ero bimba, ascoltavo "Incompiuta" di Schubert, ricordo piangevo... Ma, quanto mi piaceva! Tutt'ora mi fa compagnia.... Fortunatamente ho trovato Swiss- klassic 24/24 musica classica, senza dover scegliere, decidere chi, cosa ascoltare...

Beethovens No.6 'The Pastoral' is my absolute favourite. I love walks in the countryside and listen to the birds singing. This tells me exactly what life in the countryside is all about with a babbling brook. I can totally switch off when I listen to this wonderful masterpiece. What a joy , in this terrible time, to listen to peace and tranquility.

Ich liebe die Pastorale und habe mich durch alle Aufnahmen durchgehört. Diese hier ist mit Abstand mein Favorit. So herrlich leicht, unheimlich gefühlvoll, ohne je kitschig oder überdramatisch zu werden. Der innere, manchmal sogar äußerlich sichtbare Tanz des Dirigenten übertragt sich magisch auf das Orchester. Grandiose Solisten, vor allem der Flötist ist ein Traum! Das hr-Sinfonieorchester gehört für mich spätestens mit dieser Aufnahme zur Weltspitze. Muss ich unbedingt einmal live erleben! Danke auch für die wunderbare Kameraführung und die technische Brillanz von Bild und Ton.
Gerade höre ich diese Aufnahme zum, ach, 7. oder 8. Mal, und bin dieses Mal zu Tränen gerührt (wirklich! das habe ich bei Klassik nur ganz, ganz selten!). So eine großartige Komposition, so wunderbar aufgeführt, und ich kann das miterleben! Die Pastorale ist meine Medizin geworden in traurigen Stunden. Sie macht mich nicht "wieder froh", sie nimmt mich einfach in die Arme, und ich darf mich tragen lassen. Danke, Andrés. Danke, Ludwig. Danke, Sebastian (der Flötist). Danke, alle Zauberer vom hr Sinf!
@@kallepawlak9808 Kenne Sie zwar nicht, aber Sie sprechen mir aus der Seele. Die Sechste hat mich aus allem rausgeholt. Mir laufen die Tränen runter und meine Töchter finden das ganz großartig! Danke Ihnen für den Kommentar
I have viewed or listened to many orchestras and conductors performing the pastoral symphony. But frankly, this performance gives me a lot of happiness, relief and peace. Don't know how many times I had viewed this in RUclips. Thank you all.
A professional musician myself, I have listened to the Frankfurt Radio orchestra several times recently and find their performances very convincing and, of course extremely enjoyable.
Wow, Frankfurt Radio Symphony, this is the BEST performance you can find in the Internet for my favorite No.6. Also the best in sound recording, camera/film editing. FRS is excellent!
@@bobmartin7399I was just thinking I’d like it at my funeral. I’m not sure other family members would appreciate it. But my Dad in Heaven would be conducting and beckon me Home (if God Wills).
I first heard this song in Music Appreciation 101 class in about 1987 while in college, then promptly forgot about it. Except I remembered the melody. Now 35 years later I was trying to find the name of the piece and it was driving me crazy! I finally heard it at the end of Soylent Green movie, of all places. What a masterpiece of music!
This is a glorious performance of one of humanity's greatest symphonies! Dynamics, tempo, color... all are right on... in a symphony where those elements MUST be right! Thank you Frankfurt Radio Symphony.... so grateful!!
The blissful union of charm and power, of gentleness and majesty. Thanks again Ludwig, you've lighted the world with another transclucent gem, this time, in honor of Nature herself.
Much of today's music shall not be remembered.. not even in 50 years. How come we then keep performing ancient artists' music? Just because it never dies!! And it shall survive any catastrophe to come. Thank you so much, this symphony always makes me cry out of joy.
amen. today's music is so predictable. but you never know what emotions beethoven's symphonies are gonna portray next. its always a surprise. even after i've listened to it a million times, i am still so amazed .. when people ask me who my favourite musician is, i always say beethoven is one of the top 3.. i know its mainstream, but he's really THAT good. one of the best if not the best. always a joy listening to his music
@@sourdurian2839 I second that. It's always a joy listening to his music for me, too. And I think him one of the best whatsoever, along with Mozart. Wish you all the best for your life, my friend.
I do try to remind people that "today's music is just trash, back in MY DAY we had REAL MUSIC" quotes are often just boorish, uninformed, and the result of not giving new music a chance - considering there is an order of magnitude more music being created each decade that passes - but it's hard to argue that stuff like Beethoven (me being partial to the 5'th, 6'th, 7'th, and 9'th, but loving and listening to every little piece I can get my hands on) is and will forever remain rare and unique. His music was the result not just of genius, but also of very real suffering and struggle. Can we even imagine what torture it would be to write and play like him but to go completely deaf? Sometimes I daydream about silly things like "if I could go back in time with the greatest medical kit in the world, where and when would I go?" I would dearly love to go back, when the 9th was perhaps mostly written , but his health was still able to be preserved and reinforced, and to let him hear every piece of music he ever wrote in perfect clarity on demand as we are blessed to have it... I think Andres Orosco-Estrada's orchestra's renditions would be as good or better than any other I could offer him. May he RIP and the many gods give him all good things.
All of the Beatles music was produced over 50 years ago. It is still remembered by a very large percentage of the population. Bohemian Rhapsody will be 50 years old next year, yet practically everyone on the planet knows it. Most of the music from Beethoven's time has already been forgotten. What we remember is a tiny percentage of the music produced at that time. The same applies to modern music. The majority of it will be forgotten in a very short time but the best will live on. That's exactly how it should be.
@@teejayaich4306 It's the same in all walks of life. People will often say how amazing it is that builders of past centuries were so great. They don't seem to understand that they only see the best from that period. All the rubbish building from times gone by have long since disappeared. So what we see now is just the best there was at the time. Which skews our perception of what was normal. In years to come all the rubbish music of today will be forgotten, only the best will be remembered. So in the future it will appear that all of the music of our time was great. There's always been great music being produced and there always will be. The only rubbish music we get to hear is from our current era. Because the rubbish soon gets forgotten, no matter what era it comes from.
this symphony is so underrated, not Eroica. I can hear so many composer in this. Like Wagner, Dvorak and others. It's definitely his "four seasons". Nature itself seem to have a powerful impact on composers. Being inspired by the natural events they usually write the most powerful works.
ich bin immer wieder beeindruckt, mit welcher Leidenschaft Andres Orozco-Estrada dirigiert und das Orchester zu Höchstleistungen mitreißt. Danke dafür.
I feel like I stroll with Beethoven around a beautiful countryside...

The best version, thanks a lot.
My favorite part of the symphony is the woodwind solo at 22:32 especially when the flute plays alone before the oboe and clarinet join in
I know the flute plays major seconds and a long trill, the oboe plays dotted rhythms on high D, and the clarinet plays descending major thirds.
Einmalig schön ❤
¡Maravillosa música! Gracias por subir esta divina sinfonía. Muchas gracias.
Dankeschön ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
le chant du coucou est merveilleusement reproduit par la flute le haubois et la ciarinette!
Das ist sehr schön
41:00 That part gets me every time.
Also, love the period instruments.
Oh, yes 41:00 is the most magical moment of this performance. And you see it in the conductors face. As if the whole symphony was nothing nut a journey to this very moment.
I am always mesmerized also at 32:38, the peaceful melody after the storm, when the birds finally starting to sing again.
Looks like a mix on period (natural horns) with modern instruments - natural horn is best with LvB.
also natural trumpets and alto trombone
I love that part too. It sounds like glass pipes playing. I am sitting here enthralled. This music is a gift to humanity. Bravissimi.
I really like this metronome tempo
You , hr-Sinfonieorchester are awesome. You know that right? I especially like how the 1st horn covers rather than mutes at the very end.

Is this for anyone else their favorite LvB symphony? I probably prefer it a bit slower, but this is interesting. For me, the most moving passage in all of Western music begins here around 10:00.
Absolutely. I have gotten in the habit of listening to it every morning when I awaken!
This is absolutely my ideal piece of heaven. I love listening to it. (Hugh MacDonald) when, like now I'm stressed out, I listen and I'm calm again no tension. I call it my relaxation kind of music. Beethoven works for me. I've grown up listening to it when my father used to put Beethoven No.6 on I knew I was a classical fan for life. Well done Beethoven.

Do you know who the conductor is ?
I really wonder who he is.
Because his gesture is so impressive.

This has to be one of the best symphonies ever
I could listen back to back forever.❤🎉
All of Beethoven's are just perfection - not a single note which could possibly be improved - and if you actually listen to them from 1 - 9 (and all his music), you can pick out themes which he's developing over time.
5 and 9 are obviously the most well known, i wish that at bare minimum 6 and 7 got a little more love, though i'd put 1-9 and all his music as "listen to without any sort of multitasking before you die or you're being a real fucking idiot" list
P.S. Check out "Voices of Music" for flawless classical, and their 4 seasons with Alana Youseffian is just flawless - she's heart-stopping in that performance!
My late Father exposed me to most of his Symphonies in my childhood. I remember them all. But for me the Pastorale is the best (as you say), the sweetest.
22:31 I can hear the singing from nightingale, quail, cuckoo. So beautiful!
Eine der schönsten Sinfonien überhaupt.
Wieder und wieder höhere ich mir genau diese Interpretation an, sie gibt mir Kraft und entspannt mich gleichzeitig und hilft mir wirklich sehr all die Schrecklichkeiten unserer Zeit besser ertragen zu können... DANKE dafür...
Exactly the same with me. Heute zum x-ten Mal - nach getaner Gartenarbeit mit "Gott-sei-Dank-daß-es-wieder-regnet". Das hrSO mit seinen fabelhaften Holzbläsern incuding 2 Naturhörnern passt so schön zur Stimmung dieses grauen Montags.

Never get tired of listening to this wonderful relaxing music.
Vielen Dank... Meine Tochter (6) fragt zum ob der Dirigent der beethoven ist... 🙈 also er macht ein super job 👍🙂
Das war der junge Beethoven (Scherz). Es ist sehr schön, dass ihre kleine Tochter so eine wunderschöne Musik hört. Meine Enkeltochter Lilly ist aber auch sehr daran interessiert, was der Opa für eine Musik hört und daß er vor allem lieber Musik hört, als Fernseh zu schauen
Bellissimo crescere con questa meravigliosa musica .... Musica fiori ..la natura .!!!

Beethoven: "I'm going deaf (5th Symphony/"Fate knocking at the door"), so I think I'll go for a walk (6th Symphony)." Perfection.
Beethovens No.6 'The Pastoral' is my absolute favourite. I love walks in the countryside and listen to the birds singing. This tells me exactly what life in the countryside is all about with a babbling brook. I can totally switch off when I listen to this wonderful masterpiece. What a joy , in this terrible time, to listen to peace and tranquility.
_And he was a Moor, search it!_ 😁
Towards the end of the second movement the woodwinds imitate bird calls, this symphony is a joy to listen to.
and the 5th and 9th???
A good description of what Beethoven's intentions were: What the world might hum and sound like had mankind not screwed up the planet Earth.

Ich liebe die Pastorale und habe mich durch alle Aufnahmen durchgehört. Diese hier ist mit Abstand mein Favorit. So herrlich leicht, unheimlich gefühlvoll, ohne je kitschig oder überdramatisch zu werden. Der innere, manchmal sogar äußerlich sichtbare Tanz des Dirigenten übertragt sich magisch auf das Orchester. Grandiose Solisten, vor allem der Flötist ist ein Traum! Das hr-Sinfonieorchester gehört für mich spätestens mit dieser Aufnahme zur Weltspitze. Muss ich unbedingt einmal live erleben!
Danke auch für die wunderbare Kameraführung und die technische Brillanz von Bild und Ton.
Gerade höre ich diese Aufnahme zum, ach, 7. oder 8. Mal, und bin dieses Mal zu Tränen gerührt (wirklich! das habe ich bei Klassik nur ganz, ganz selten!). So eine großartige Komposition, so wunderbar aufgeführt, und ich kann das miterleben! Die Pastorale ist meine Medizin geworden in traurigen Stunden. Sie macht mich nicht "wieder froh", sie nimmt mich einfach in die Arme, und ich darf mich tragen lassen. Danke, Andrés. Danke, Ludwig. Danke, Sebastian (der Flötist). Danke, alle Zauberer vom hr Sinf!

Was für ein wunderbarer, passender Kommentar, vielen Dank für diese Worte.
I have viewed or listened to many orchestras and conductors performing the pastoral symphony. But frankly, this performance gives me a lot of happiness, relief and peace. Don't know how many times I had viewed this in RUclips.
Thank you all.
This is too fast but very good play.
A professional musician myself, I have listened to the Frankfurt Radio orchestra several times recently and find their performances very convincing and, of course extremely enjoyable.
Would love to see them live.
❤❤❤@@roseevaris9110
A great-- and I mean GREAT-- philosopher once wrote that without this music, life would not be worth living.
Wow, Frankfurt Radio Symphony, this is the BEST performance you can find in the Internet for my favorite No.6. Also the best in sound recording, camera/film editing. FRS is excellent!
Excellent sound engineers and cameras too. That's for sure
They do a great performance of everything they take on. More people are beginning to notice this.
This is really beautiful. Estrada fast becoming my favorite conductor
24:20 is probably my all time favorite symphonic movement! I LOVE this entire symphony! Beethoven is a musical genius of epic proportions.
The transition from the storm... to thanksgiving... is one of the most powerful and moving things i have ever experienced in my whole life.
Had that played at the funerals of both of my parents.
Gives me chills.
@@bobmartin7399I was just thinking I’d like it at my funeral. I’m not sure other family members would appreciate it. But my Dad in Heaven would be conducting and beckon me Home (if God Wills).
O wow, the flute!, the horns, the clarinet, the oboe, it is simply so beautiful
Bravo bravissimo for all the musicians and the conductor. Wish I had been there to applaud in person.
I first heard this song in Music Appreciation 101 class in about 1987 while in college, then promptly forgot about it. Except I remembered the melody. Now 35 years later I was trying to find the name of the piece and it was driving me crazy! I finally heard it at the end of Soylent Green movie, of all places. What a masterpiece of music!
This is a glorious performance of one of humanity's greatest symphonies! Dynamics, tempo, color... all are right on... in a symphony where those elements MUST be right! Thank you Frankfurt Radio Symphony.... so grateful!!
Magnifique ! Merci. Bravo à la direction d'orchestre d'Andres Orozco-Estrada.
La música de Beethoven es lo más próximo a la divinidad que me puedo imaginar.
Beethoven claimed once "The birds and the nature helped composing this " xD
This director is like fresh air!
The blissful union of charm and power, of gentleness and majesty. Thanks again Ludwig, you've lighted the world with another transclucent gem, this time, in honor of Nature herself.
感謝您解答了我的困惑
A tiny grace note to this exceptional music, orchestra and conductor...is the photography: the camera control follows the score wonderfully!
HR and ORF are both masters at this.
Much of today's music shall not be remembered.. not even in 50 years. How come we then keep performing ancient artists' music? Just because it never dies!! And it shall survive any catastrophe to come.
Thank you so much, this symphony always makes me cry out of joy.
amen. today's music is so predictable. but you never know what emotions beethoven's symphonies are gonna portray next. its always a surprise. even after i've listened to it a million times, i am still so amazed .. when people ask me who my favourite musician is, i always say beethoven is one of the top 3.. i know its mainstream, but he's really THAT good. one of the best if not the best. always a joy listening to his music
@@sourdurian2839 I second that. It's always a joy listening to his music for me, too. And I think him one of the best whatsoever, along with Mozart. Wish you all the best for your life, my friend.
I do try to remind people that "today's music is just trash, back in MY DAY we had REAL MUSIC" quotes are often just boorish, uninformed, and the result of not giving new music a chance - considering there is an order of magnitude more music being created each decade that passes - but it's hard to argue that stuff like Beethoven (me being partial to the 5'th, 6'th, 7'th, and 9'th, but loving and listening to every little piece I can get my hands on) is and will forever remain rare and unique.
His music was the result not just of genius, but also of very real suffering and struggle. Can we even imagine what torture it would be to write and play like him but to go completely deaf?
Sometimes I daydream about silly things like "if I could go back in time with the greatest medical kit in the world, where and when would I go?"
I would dearly love to go back, when the 9th was perhaps mostly written , but his health was still able to be preserved and reinforced, and to let him hear every piece of music he ever wrote in perfect clarity on demand as we are blessed to have it... I think Andres Orosco-Estrada's orchestra's renditions would be as good or better than any other I could offer him.
May he RIP and the many gods give him all good things.
All of the Beatles music was produced over 50 years ago. It is still remembered by a very large percentage of the population. Bohemian Rhapsody will be 50 years old next year, yet practically everyone on the planet knows it. Most of the music from Beethoven's time has already been forgotten. What we remember is a tiny percentage of the music produced at that time. The same applies to modern music. The majority of it will be forgotten in a very short time but the best will live on. That's exactly how it should be.
@@teejayaich4306 It's the same in all walks of life. People will often say how amazing it is that builders of past centuries were so great. They don't seem to understand that they only see the best from that period. All the rubbish building from times gone by have long since disappeared. So what we see now is just the best there was at the time. Which skews our perception of what was normal.
In years to come all the rubbish music of today will be forgotten, only the best will be remembered. So in the future it will appear that all of the music of our time was great. There's always been great music being produced and there always will be. The only rubbish music we get to hear is from our current era. Because the rubbish soon gets forgotten, no matter what era it comes from.
this symphony is so underrated, not Eroica. I can hear so many composer in this. Like Wagner, Dvorak and others. It's definitely his "four seasons". Nature itself seem to have a powerful impact on composers. Being inspired by the natural events they usually write the most powerful works.
Dvoraks Moldau indeed.
it's not underrated at all, it's very very well known and very often performed, and rightfully so...
Amo vocês, Orquestra, Maestro, e tudo o que já ouvi de Beethoven. Parabéns.
ich bin immer wieder beeindruckt, mit welcher Leidenschaft Andres Orozco-Estrada dirigiert und das Orchester zu Höchstleistungen mitreißt. Danke dafür.
Andrés Orozco. 나와 같은 시대에 있어 주어 너무 감사합니다. 당신이 지휘하는 모습을 보면 배우가 대사를 읽는 것처럼 작곡자가 하는 이야기가 그대로 나타납니다.
My favourite symphony!
