I like this conducting technique. I think it really communicates to the musicians. His movements are really easy to understand and as result the orchestra feels secure and more free to enjoy the music and they certainly were! Awesome piece of music!
+Torterra kart Yes, it is Wilfried Strehle. We are delighted to say that retired members of the orchestra usually remain in close touch and sometimes still perform in individual concert programmes.
1:55 I'm always so impressed seeing DBs play blistering fast sections, idk why. Visually looks impressive, and probably is harder then the cello which they so often double
+Jiwpgakis. Their $300,000 annual salary may have something to do with it. With the exception of a few soloists and conductors, Berlin Philharmonic musicians are the best-paid in the world. With good reason.
@P. H. Faria why urgh? Charlie Vernon has tremendous pedigree as a bass trombonist. He was taught by the iconic bass trombonist Edward Kleinhammer and probably the most famous tuba player in Arnold Jacobs. He's taken a lot of their qualities into his own playing. I'm no American but I can respect quality when I hear it.
@P. H. Faria was David not meaning louder in reference to this piece rather than saying louder is better in general? Just as you have your own preferences in how you prefer to hear something, is David not entitled to his with comments such as "urgh". His taste is his taste, doesn't make him wrong.
Then look at Shotstakovich's tempo markings, which start at 88 to the quarter (!) with a specifically measured accelerando that I have only heard Leonard Slatkin actually conduct.
+Tom Allen I couldn't disagree more but that's the good thing about all the different renditions/recordings in classical music - there's a recording for everybody
A great symphony indeed! Dmitri Shostakovich subtitled his Symphony no 5 'A Soviet's reply to just criticism' as an opera he wrote previously didn't go down at all well with the Soviet authorities & Joseph Stalin attended the premier & reportedly stormed out during the performance! The headlines the next day in the newspapers 'Chaos instead of music'! This particular symphony was written to get back into favour with the Soviet authorities & it worked & it was well received. I was hoping to hear the moment the tam-tam came in to relieve the tension in the final movement but there we are!
This was the most fun piece I’ve played so far. The concert we were going to perform it for got canceled but we got a superior at the festival we were able to go to
Holy moly...what a tempo!! Cool to see a conductor without a baton. It appears to me that Valery Gergiev and Tugan Sokhiev enjoyed the same conducting teacher.
I love the theatrics of the conductor😂 At 00:34 he looks at the brass and is like “Whatcha got? Who put you on the face of the earth?” (Sponge bob reference🤣) Then at 1:30 I’m pretty sure he’s playing fruit Ninja!!😂😂
Zander Grier tromba section? If you’re talking about horns, nearly every professional orchestra outside of Vienna use instruments with 4 valves. If you mean the trumpets, they all only have 3 valves. The pinky is used to raise levers covering small holes that correct the intonation and make certain notes easier to reach.

+starwarsjunkie7777 sokhiev is actually one of my favorites. He's very precise and energetic, and always gets an enthusiastic performance out of the orchestra. His style is flamboyant but services the players - when he's conducting the music never sounds labored or harsh.
The way Sokhiev builds up tension with the insane tempo here and the fun the Philharmoniker have is simply breathtaking.

00:30 thats the dream. Playing a masterpiece smiling with the one of the best orchestras with the best friend, who also happens to be amazing.
Saw him perform locally recently, he has that smile on wherever he goes xD
Interesting conducting technique, I call it the landing strip
I personally have a different idea of what a “landing strip” is
+Torterra kart Yes, it is Wilfried Strehle. We are delighted to say that retired members of the orchestra usually remain in close touch and sometimes still perform in individual concert programmes.
Berliner Philharmoniker my favorite movement of this symphony is the 2nd with that piccolo clarinet
1:55 I'm always so impressed seeing DBs play blistering fast sections, idk why. Visually looks impressive, and probably is harder then the cello which they so often double
As a double bassist, i can confirm that this is harder
Hardest part is getting those strings to speak
I love the gesture he gives Stefan Schulz. It's like the all-clear for bass carnage
Anyone else hear the little cry director at the 00:35 ? Wonderful concert , I love the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra
me
Trombon and tuba 00.38 perfect in all ... The best recorder , very very High level !!
Of course not, they are too soft
The trombone and tuba at 00:37 are awesome.
Stefan&Alex they're crazy XD
00:30 those viola players seem really happy :D

+Gordon Ackerman They do not at all make that much. They are anything but rich.
+Gordon Ackerman Also, the members of the LA Philharmonic make the most.
Still B.P is the best in my humble ignorant opinion.
A wonderful piece of music with a wonderful orchestra
Stefan Schulz is my Bass Trombone role model, can't get enough of him!
He needs to be way louder. Personally I think the American bass trombonists are the best such as Charlie or Blair.

@@davidstein7397 stefan was taught by Charlie before he joined the Berlin phil.
I love see people smiling in the audience, I love BPO so much!!
I thoroughly enjoyed the faster tempo on this piece. I've never actually heard it at this tempo and it seems to suit the piece well.
Hear Bernsteins Version thats way faster (too fast)
Then look at Shotstakovich's tempo markings, which start at 88 to the quarter (!) with a specifically measured accelerando that I have only heard Leonard Slatkin actually conduct.
@E. Heckscher this is one of those movements where few conductors seem to pay little if any attention to what the composer actually wrote.
That conducting style is hilariously satisfying to watch!
More bass trombone please :)
More Stefan Schulz please!!!!
There can never be enough of that
Yessss
More speed please
This is the gentlest sounding performance of this movement I've ever heard. It almost sounds more like Schubert's 5th Symphony
I think that the gentleness is good
+Tom Allen I couldn't disagree more but that's the good thing about all the different renditions/recordings in classical music - there's a recording for everybody
+Orlando Aponte Exactly. You can pick your preferred.
At 2:02 you can actually see the conductor play a violin.
1:55 lol
Another thought, I love the tuba in this piece because it's literally the greatest instrument known to mankind
I don't even hear that shit

One of the best works of thè 20th century.

All of them pupils of the great Ilya Musin.
Wonderful music, wonderful ONCT!
Love how Amihai always smiling and having fun!

fruit ninja hahahahhha
this is fantastic speed
They really set off at such a pace......
A melhor Orquestra Filarmônica do Mundo.
BERLIM.
Why are musicians always grinning from ear to ear when playing Shostakovich?
Cause he is KOOOOOOOL!
The one violist also grinned when the orchestra played brahms first symphony.
it's incredibly difficult to play but when you finally get it right and perform it it is so much fun, I speak from experience
@@friedrichbirke3500 I saw that guy (0:33) perform some Schubert in my town recently, he has the grin on his face permanently I think xD

Is Wilfried Strehle playing here?
I think I saw him at 2:12 but I thought he wasn't anymore in the orchestra
anyone else hear the creepy murmer at 0:35 ?
And 2:36!
@@Nik_Luscinius what?
Oskar Gotopo the same sound as at 0:35.
It's Sokhiev grunting
Well, that's the first time I've seen the entire tromba section using 4 rotor horns. Interesting.
Zander Grier tromba section? If you’re talking about horns, nearly every professional orchestra outside of Vienna use instruments with 4 valves. If you mean the trumpets, they all only have 3 valves. The pinky is used to raise levers covering small holes that correct the intonation and make certain notes easier to reach.
I wish Karajan recorded this sym.
What´s the sound in 00:35 ??
0:30辺りで目配せしてニヤってしてるww

1: 28 wen you driving in winter 🤣
0:08 put in those earplugs Bassoons, because it’s gonna get pretty loud.
54 people who pushed low rating became Siberian sending.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I always hear a little Mahler 1 in this one... strange
Shostakovich did get a lot of inspiration from Mahler so that's probably why
Mahler is Shostakovichi's favorite composer :)
Where are sarah wills and stefan dohr and the others on horn?
比较美😍
What’s the side trumpet looking instrument called?
It's just a trumpet but with rotary valves. They use them a lot on the continent
charlie sheen plays trombone?
0:35 Jupiter anyone?
Who plays Contrabasson?
Wait tubas make sound!?
is this the best shostakovic sinfonie? A friend asked
0:35 "slap"
I prefer Yutaka sado’s version more. This performance is lacking quite a lot of things...
Agreed. That is a really remarkable one, full of power and energy. Dado was on fire!

Srsly? What has a Gba Game to do with this?
I would kill to be in this orchestra.....jk

OK WHICH OF THEM FLUTIES IS PLAYING WRONG NOTES AT THE BEGINNING?????
why does the conductor always change between videos?
Mad Russian conductor, MAD 😆👏
This is a very good recording, but personally I think Bernstein conducting this sounds the best.
tyyd tot everyone does
さすがやん
Tugan Sokhiev does not have enough quality to conduct such prestigious orchestra as the Berliner Philharmoniker.
É a tua opinião...
In 36 seconds, I hear a ghost.
Flutes and piccolos are so off pitch 1:59 :(
Phillip Park In my opinion, the sound out of tune would belong to the Eb clarinet.
Andy Yu The sound of the Eb clarinet is much sharper. You can check out Richard Strauss's Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks.
+SeanPi314 It sounds more like the Eb clarinet for me too.
WTF!!!! This is the Berlin Phil!! Which orchestra is it you play for again??
+David Pritchard exactly what I was going to say
Esto es tan bueno como comer bolas broma
1:25
Too damned fast for the power within.
That's one weird-ass composing style, Sokhiev...
do you mean conducting?
Tom Allen yep lmao
A bit too quick for my taste.
If you take the tempo slower, the piece drags. Tempo was just right.
You should check out New York Philharmonic performances of this piece with Leonard Bernstein, I believe he had the right idea for tempo.
I like very much the New York Phil version with Bernstein conducting, I just prefer the tempo faster :)
Bernstein kinda misses the point of the piece in my opinion.
Huh? Explain your point about Bernstein? How does he miss?
Too fast
Yes, please look again at the score and try to understand Shostokovich's reason for the amazing tempo changes he so carefully wrote?
Fine performance. Too bad Russian music got cancelled and we’re not supposed to like it anymore.
очень плохо

No, I think he is better than Gergiev)

Really??????
ey no!!
Exactly, how can people even complain about Gergiev when you have conductors such as him.
Too fast.
I feel too.
Honestly, I hate this symphony most...
That symphony isn't his real style. I'd prefer something like his 4th or 8th.
Not a good performance. Pass
Shostakovich's symphonies are overrated....
+Valentin Chantereau Oh come on...
Bullshit.
Joker!!!!!
bullcrap, beethoven symphonies are overrated, and barely anyone knows that shostakovich wrote more than 9 symphonies, and you say he's overrated?
