- The New York Philharmonic performs Claude Debussy's La Mer three symphonic sketches with the late former Musical Director Pierre Boulez as conductor.
This performance is from the Philharmonic's 150th concert live telecast from 1992 and was recorded live from the United States as opposed to other versions of this video.

I have watched so many interpretations of La Mer this week. Variety of video shots is always better in newer recordings. At about three minutes before the end, the flute and oboe, soon joined by harp and xylophone and modulating from minor to major chords is pretty awesome stuff. I hope that all universities require courses in classical music appreciation, and that every "educated" person is able to become well-versed in this, examples of the grand achievements of Western Civilization. I'm 79. Art and music appreciation classes in college altered my life forever. May 24, 2023. St. Joseph, MO, USA.
Thanks for your great comments Warren and I agree with your thoughts on classical music appreciation courses.
As always, Boulez brings out details in the score that you've never heard before, even in masterworks as well- known as La Mer. Magical performance.
and Boulez did it without a musical score and baton, just his hands.
Tell us which ones.
@@muslit Schmartypants. Compare the crescendo from mvmt 1 (7:54) versus ANYBODY else's version. Or 5:00 in.
Compare from Bernstein's version. Bernstein is too heavy on the ocean effects to the expense of the feeling of same (the exact opposite of what Impressionism was about). The timing is also weird, feeling jazzish jerky. When you're a Jet, you swim in the ocean…
Just look at the closing hand motions of the first movement. Bernstein is sweating and gyrating. Boulez gives that cool flick of the wrist. We're making a Renoir here, not a Pollock.
I mean, c'mon: a Frenchman versus a New Yorker...who's going to do a better job?

@@carvcom1 Well, it's not just the hand stuff, it's the instruction that went on the days, weeks and months before.
@@carvcom1 Big damn deal.
Simply the most dynamic performance of the piece you are going to find.
I agree!
When Karajan did this piece it was sheer sound, but this is rough like the sea.
😮
The man was my hero.
0:10 De l'aube à midi sur la mer - Très lent
9:00 Jeux de vagues - Allegro
16:20 Dialogue du vent et de la mer - Animé et tumultueux
At 23:41 we see and hear the late great Roland Kohloff playing timpani
Does anyone know how I can get a copy of the Boulez radio broadcast of “Damnation of Faust “NY Phil. ,Jessye Norman,and Justino Díaz…it would make this old singer happy….???

Let it be noted...conducted without a score...and it's very clear he knows every note.
Tout serait parfait sans les gens qui toussent. Et ça tousse par ci, et ça tousse par là. "Oh chérie, ce soir j'ai envie de tousser, j'irais bien au concert, juste pour tousser!".
The coughs bothered me also. Thanks for noting that!

No sunglasses? 😎
He looks like The Godfather (Brando).
Hi, could you help me with the info: where can I watch the original telecast of this concert?

Mamma mia che velocità!

7:55 how they interpret the final section of the 1st movement is how I judge conductors
Which is why I try to avoid Gergiev.
The Godfather is back ?
At about 7 mins. in I think I spotted a trace of emotion on the maestro's face...No, on second viewing, it seems that it was merely a suppressed belch
Yes, treating the sea as if it had no emotions!
@@jimp4170 His face is concentrated, yes, but there is so much emotion and subtlety in his arms and body language. I suppose that if he had some unusual facial expression (which actually ends up conveying nothing to the players) then you would enjoy that more, but simply speaking practically from the players perspective, it would only be distracting.
I prefer conductors who uses hands and fingers to express their conducting, they convey infinitely more information to the orchestra then does a mere stick, no pun intended.
With all respect to Monsieur Boulez, but tempo is not so accurate. Sometimes the sensation of waves is lost.
Questi concerti " live " sono inascoltabili a causa del violento tossire di numerosi spettatori, non appena arriva l'intervallo. Se si è afflitti da tosse e mal di gola non si deve andare ai concerti. Meglio le registrazioni in sala d'incisione , anche se il live è diretto da un grande direttore. ed esegue una famosa orchestra. E 'un vero schifo la tosse !!!!
E un orrore!
Great work by the camera operators on this video. The musical score reader did an excellent job supporting the TV director with the solo musician's shots..
I thought the same thing, sometimes it seemed like the video editor had the score in his hands!
