- The Conductor of the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra talks about the importance of silence - in music, as well as in our lives.
Neal Gittleman has been a professional conductor for 35 years. This is his 23rd season as conductor of the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra. His passion is music and bringing that music to life through history as well as sound. For decades, he has been talking to his concert audiences to give greater understanding of the music he loves. Speaking in front of an audience at TEDxDayton, however, is a first for Neal! Hopefully, the music will carry him along. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
WHEN TO BE SILENT
1. Be silent - in the heat
of anger.
2. Be silent - when you
don't have all the
facts.
3. Be silent - when you
haven't verified the
story.
4. Be silent - if your
words will offend a
weaker person.
5. Be silent - when it is
time to listen.
6. Be silent - when you
are tempted to make
light of holy things.
7. Be silent - when you
are tempted to joke
about sin.
8. Be silent - if you would
be ashamed of your
words later.
9. Be silent - if your
words would convey
the wrong
impression.
10. Be silent - if the issue
is none of your
business.
11. Be silent - when you
are tempted to tell an
outright lie.
12. Be silent - if your
words will damage
someone else's
reputation.
13. Be silent - if your
words will damage a
friendship.
14. Be silent - when you
are feeling critical.
15. Be silent - if you can't
say it without
screaming.
16. Be silent - if your
words will be a poor
reflection of your
friends and family.
17. Be silent - if you may
have to eat your
words later.
18. Be silent - if you have
already said it more
than one time.
19. Be silent - when you
are tempted to flatter
a wicked person.
20. Be silent - when you
are supposed to be
working instead.

Thankyou 🤍I note it down in my diary ▫️these are so powerful ✨
This video is powerful...some people in the audience couldnt even shut up! Being silent is truly a skill...
Wasn't the audience. They'd opened up the doors to the outside. It was the people outside auditorium. He even mentions it. Audience looked intent.
@@neildmediai was about to write the same thing 😊
@@dunjana_palesaMay be little bigger...
Every generation is becoming more talkative. My grandparents were more silent than my parents. My parents are more silent than me. I am more silent than my kids. My kids are non-stop talkative. We are losing the power of silence. People who live in the villages and rural areas are more silent than those who live in towns.
Amen to that. Silence is a skill.
Actually we are not, silence comes with wisdom which mostly comes with growth that comes with age and experiences, you ll see yourself and your children becoming more silent only🙂
finally a piano piece i can masterfully play
Same

Finally.....
Silly 😁😂
HAHAHA 😅 ME TOO
I have a friend in Uni who loves silence. So I started to search for videos about the benefits of silence and that’s what I got.
Silence is Golden ✨🙏🏼😌
Sure , silence is the best friend that will ever betrays you .confuse them with your silence ..

So as time
i really enjoyed hearing the people laugh in the background during the silence portion 😌 makes me want to remember to listen to the voices around me next time i go to a museum or a mall
Basically, be mindful.
omg silence is music to my ear, i always did, it's working in my workplace and my home.
Finally I found a video on Silence
Me too! I heard sitting in silence has benefits for the mind etc
I find peace in the quiet.
Just last week at work early in the morning a coworker greeted me good morning, i greeted them back. I was silent and sitting there. Then that person ask with my name, "Is everything ok?". Yes, i just want to be silent.
Baby please don't make me fall in love with you ... How can i be silent while I'm homeless i need help y'all oh lord why me ????.
What do u mean u want to be silent?😀
you sound really cool
ron swanson vibes
I get that all day by one co worker...I need to use that because she drains😫 me every time she asks 🤦🏽♀️
Have you ever heard anything more beautiful! Bravo Bravo encore encore!👏👏👏👏🏼👏👏
He gave silence a new definition by being silence. What I'm gonna say would be nothing, so I'm gonna keep silent.
The music of silence...
When he sat at the piano just staring I know I'd be trying so hard not to laugh if I were there
Silent is good but talk when your voice is needed and the truth has no silent!
Love it! So peaceful.....
Excellent, noteworthy and inspiring, thank you!
so much thoughts in few moments of silence....thanks
He’s an incredible speaker
Great rendition of Cage's masterpiece!
Not talking, will take me much discipline and self control. Indeed, will def have many opps to practice 🤐🤭
Much worth the effort.
Peace all 🙏✨✨✨
Very insightful Neal, thank you ! ☺️
The best performance for any big events, flawless
I've noticed that silence make's most people very uncomfortable. Most people try to fill silence with meaningless noise never shuting up. Im a quiet person who is comfortable with silence. So whenever I'm around people who can't stand silence, can't stand me.
“True silence” is a quantum state of consciousness, not just “thinking” about what you are doing.
Consciousness is kept in the “thinking mode” forcibly, just like that, it is not possible to get out of the Matrix of the “internal dialogue” (Collective Unconsciousness) and for 98% forever in this life.
I use to love ❤️ silence but tinnitus destroyed silence; sad 😞.
Thanks for this wonderful video.
If the talking are of silver, the silence is of gold
Ramana responded: “Contact with them is good. They will work through silence. By speaking, their power is reduced. Silence is most powerful. Speech is always less powerful than silence. So mental contact is the best.”
Silence is the Eternal Stream of Speech
In “Talks” many quotes of the Maharshi can be found, which make clear, that silence is the actual, direct and eternal speech, which flows heart to heart.
“Silence is ever-speaking; it is a perennial flow of language; it is interrupted by speaking. These words obstruct that mute language. There is electricity flowing in a wire. With resistance to its passage, it glows as a lamp or revolves as a fan. In the wire it remains as electric energy. Similarly also, silence is the eternal flow of language, obstructed by words. What one fails to know by conversation extending to several years can be known in a trice in Silence, or in front of Silence - e.g., Dakshinamurti, and his four disciples.
That is the highest and most effective language.”
) -- Miss Margaret Woodrow Wilson, daughter of the late President, told this correspondent today that she was happier than ever before and did not want to return to the United States. For four years she had been a sadhak or follower of Sri Aurobindo, India's most prominent mystic, in his asram here.
Wow one of the best TedTalks
Beautiful 😊
I’ve been saying this for years! Silence is power!
I sure wish that my roommate would practice the power of Silence 🔕 they talk non stop and they talk very loudly, they blast their radio, they slam cabinets anything to make noise .
Thank you ❤❤
The only answer to the questions with ought answers is silence.
9:20 to 14:35 skip if you don't want to understand this concept.
This is the most quiet Ted Talk there is! 😂❤
Extraordinary presentation. Regards
Everyone: You can't make a silent song.
John Cage: Open the doors
john cage: open the piano lid sit there for four minutes and 33 seconds and then re-close it
hold my piano lid
Sometimes I wish I was imprisoned in solitary confinement for a week. So that I cud be silent, and there was no one to ask me," wats on your mind? Wats troubling you?".
Silence is like a salt in the recipe, no where it's mentioned how much it should be used exactly but too much is definitely not good for the palate....
Too much silence is psychological torture.ijs
Trust Me You Don't
@@tiffnaytoombs8920 or perhaps training
I just wish someone would ask me what’s on your mind/what’s troubling you?
Extroverts be like: I can't take this anymore 😂😂😂
Who else was looking for 14.33, after 4 minutes and 33 seconds? It's so hard to silent in this world
I traveled a lot - learned that hotels and hallways with kids running in
them and louder ambient noises not like home were messing with a good
nights sleep. I experimented with different ear plugs and found that
Flents "Quiet Please" use once or twice and toss works wonders all night
long. Had a sump pump in the basement at home directly under the
master bedroom. The pump back-check valve thump when it rained annoyed
me as it was different. I started using the ear plugs at home. Now
decades later, I wont sleep without them - anywhere. I buy these in a
bulk container.
The Bose noise canceling headphones were perfect
for flight (I began to loathe the open cabin sound of airplanes and
airports have little noise of need - I set alarms on my phone for
flights so I know when to check flight display monitors). I use these
for hours daily with my Ipad and listen to Channels of interest - even
in the car.
Its like finding out that silence or good control of sound is preferential almost always.
I also find that there is a slowing down effect - so focus is
intentional. I can listen to concentration music specifically on
yourtube that permit me full simple and deliberate focus on the issue at
hand and I deal with things on time and efficiently. Its literally
like finding a vane of pure gold.
A few hints... Quiet please
by Flents are good for one or two uses - I buy in a large container very
cost effectively. Buy a small supply at first form the drug store.
Only the Bose has an elastomer oval pod that fits my ear better than the
common circle buds. I find circular buds to hurt when wearing over an
hour. Keep them clean daily with ZEISS Wipes (used for eye glasses) -
buy in bulk. They don't scratch glasses either.
sounds a bit like you’re trying to tune out your life bud
@@vivi7405 Peace is bliss... I found the truth. Serenity now! (Seinfeld).
12:44 damn I felt that
That ended up being one of the funniest talks I've seen.
This was AWESOME. Thanks very much.
inward is working towards you ...outer is public people
Wooooooos, what a great!!!!!!
Thé animal kingdom have a good mastery in just sitting just observing just being present. My cats are good at just sitting but I really find powerful animals sitting in silence really majestic. Silverback gorillas spend a lot of time in silence in observation in stillness for such a powerful animal. But equally silence doesn’t mean that a fast action can’t come from a calm moment. Certainly a silverback can become a fast mover from a place of stillness. Thoughts that have invention creativity and problem solving can arrive out of the blue like a flash of lightening out of deep dark stillness. The flash is all the brighter for the silky darkness of the sky. The mind can be limitless expanse of no thought like an expanse of dark sky and without expectation our mind can work so fast to give us an answer or a direction. They say Silence is golden makes it precious but maybe also gives a chance for our halos to shine.
Those who have no inerest in remaining silent will not remain silent.
7 minutes in and all he’s talked about is orchestra and music
yes
This is the #1 best TEDx I have ever heard.
What about silence for ignoring someone?
No Malice what does that mean 😂 how would you “do” wisdom
No Malice so ur saying I shouldn’t have left that reply?
It's like waiting for the concert to start but really you are in the middle of a Ted talk. 😂
awesome
I bet he didn't want silence after he ended his speech:3
Interesting in that I found myself reaching out to find and capture sounds rather than looking in to meditate.
So let me give you a low down be a happy camper and pick your brain on the silence once a while but remember don’t burn the candle on both sides
Peace ✌️
i see you turning your volume up to hear the sounds tedx hall sounds
In that 4 minutes and 33 seconds I learned just how loud and constant the creaking of my apartment building is. It's actually a lot more annoying than I realised.
IT,S MEDITATION.
I've noticed that all the people extolling the virtues of silence AREN'T.

I wonder if this is a piano piece. Should have been better on flute or guitar.
Ha
8:51 i think someone is going to sleep
I am the 4.5K like
This has just 50k views?
Funny how he is talking about silence the whole time.
When you think education is a TED talk video
Almost the same voice as iron man
🤫
The alternative title to 4:33 is, "Rubbish".
i liked it
@@vivi7405 I cannot understand what is engaging about watching someone sit a a piano doing nothing, for near five minutes. Seems silly if not just pretentious.
@@soslothful you're missing the point of the piece. The point of the piece is to recognize how silence is golden and how important it is to pay attention to your surroundings. Thats why he opened the doors so the audience can observe and listen to what was happening outside of the auditorium.
@@comrademoon4814 Hummm. This is a good take on the piece. Still, to me, it seems trite and pretentious. Perhaps it fit well with its time, but not much now.
@@soslothful I can see where your coming from, I respect your opinion, however I think we can agree to disagree perhaps?
