Ich habe bei diesem Konzert im Publikum gesessen und erinnere mich noch daran, dass ich die ganze letzte Viertelstunde geweint habe - einfach weil die Musik so unglaublich schön klang! Ich hatte Mahlers 3. schon mehrmals im Konzertsaal gehört (und sogar auch mal im Chor mitgesungen), aber nie zuvor hatte sie mich so ergriffen wie an diesem Abend. Danke dem hr-Sinfonieorchester und Andrés Orozco Estrada für dieses unvergessliche Konzert!
The silence at the end is heartbreaking!! It must be an awful strain on Andres to “come back” to the real world after such heavenly music-making! I know it does me!!!
Nothing short of an absolutely stunning performance. As a classically-trained pianist and media producer/engineer, dissolves rather than almost any cuts in the final movement would be my preference to truly accompany what is being heard. Many thanks to all who produced, funded, performed, engineered and posted this production and wherever you are, Gustav, a very special 'thank you.'
@@crichardson1893 Exactly. Havergal Brian's Gothic symphony is longer but rarely performed. And, few lengthy works pack the beauty and power of this symphony by Mahler.
Nathalie Stutzmann alto voice is so deep, appropriate and adjusted to the key 4th movement of the symphony. Thank you, Mr Estrada for your choice and conducting this master piece of music with so much conviction.
She is someone who can be called "musician overall": She is senior conductor and singer in one person. There are existing recordings of baroque music, where she sings and conducts simultanously, absolutely unique and fantastic. A real artist. Listen also to her Eroica interpretation here at YT for example. 🙏🎵

Here is what I have to say. Mahler is my favorite composer by a huge margin. This is one of my top four favorite Mahler symphonies, the other three being 2, 6, and 9. Over 45 years spent with it, I've listened to everybody perform it, hundreds of times: Bernstein, Horenstein, Levine, Barbirolli, Boulez, Haitink, Abbado, Adler, Abravanel...you get the picture. Hundreds of times. I've never heard this symphony before in my life. Touched by the hand of Mahler. I am NOT KIDDING.
I'm working my way through Mahler's symphonies one by one. The sixth movement is one of the most sublime pieces of music I've ever heard. I'm awestruck.
I've worked through everything Mahler ever wote, over the course of nearly 50 years. Man, do I envy you! (And you'll never find a better Third than this one).
@@nerowolfe736 Me, too, for over 50 years. Those just entering the Mahler universe have so much discovery ahead of them. Happily, it's a never ending journey.
Andrés Orozco-Estrada ...dass der wundervolle, charismatische Dirigent am Schluss alle beteiligten Musiker und Sänger ganz besonders würdigt, das ist doch außergewöhnlich und großartig. Ich hatte bei dieser Aufführung mehrmals Gänsehaut und es traten mir Tränen in die Augen ... das gebe ich gerne zu. Wie wundervoll ist diese Aufführung von Mahlers 3. Sinfonie ... sie ist einzigartig. Ein großartiges Orchester, ein großartiger Kinderchor, Frauenchor, die Sängerin, Nathalie Stutzmann, tief empfunden, jedes Wort, jeden Ton ... Ich danke Ihnen allen, es waren wundervolle Stunden! Stunden? Ja! Ich konnte mich nicht lösen, ich habe mir Ihre Aufführung zweimal angeschaut/hört ... ich bin gefesselt und verzaubert. DANKE!
Of all the symphonic repertoire, this is the most glorious of them all!! Mahler was miraculously gifted in penning these enchanting, majestic, rhythms and harmonies. What a magnificent performance Maestro Andres Orozco-Estrada and the Frankfurt Radio Symphony have given us as an inspiring gift. Thank you immensely for posting this most memorable performance. When the soul leaves the body for the life everlasting, this would be the BEST music to transport it to Heaven. God bless each participant.
This orchestra never fails to thrill me with its works. Absolutely one of the finest performances of this deeply haunting, beautiful symphony. Nathalie Stutzmann's entry is completely engaged so deeply in the music she is singing. It is all in her face. I wonder if she, as a conductor, has also performed this work. I have not been able to find a recording.
That pianissimo brass chorale at the end is probably the best I've ever heard; genuinely heavenly - absolutely exemplary principal trumpet and trombone
Farbenprächtige und majestätische Aufführung dieser außergewöhnlich großartigen Sinfonie mit angemessenen Tempi und perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Der Dirigent ist echt genial!
Thanks to Maestro Gustav Mahler for composing this symphony. Special thanks to Conductor Andres Orosco-Estrada for this performance and al always thanks to RUclips for posting.:)
This is perhaps the slowest version I have heard of this symphony and perhaps the most dramatic. As usual this orchestra and its conductor are excellent! Kudos for everyone!
If you like a slower Mahler Third, you might want to check out the performance by Adler/Vienna (on RUclips). It's an old mono, but you won't care, because the most recent remastering is jaw-droppingly excellent.
i was word processing through much of the symphony; when i sensed the last movement was going to end, i changed to watch the orchestra, full page. i wanted to hear those tympani beats, which i think make the ending of this symphony one of the greatest endings. then the conductor ended the symphony, looking up, as if transigured, which he surely was. then he bowed his head and put his hands together in prayer. that is when i burst into tears, as the audience had remained silent until that point, before roaring to life. i love the way this orchestra's conductors call out each section for applause, as well as the whole orchestra. the first time i listened to the symphony, without watching it, i was sort of unimpressed. unimpressed no more. absolutely splendid!
Wow- let's be clear that the quality of what we can see here for free is just incredible. All the hr-Sinfonieorchester videos have fantastic sound and the orchestra often sounds like they have no equal on the planet (and I live in Chicago!). Thank you to all involved.
Ahhl The memories. The first time I heard this live - American Symphony in Carnegie Hall, Catherine Comet, conducting - our son was a "Bim Bam Boy" as a member of the American Boychoir (RIP). I can still see and hear it in my head after all these years. It was his first Mahler 3rd of many, including the CD by Ozawa and the BSO with Jessye Norman. How many years ago! That little boy is now 38 with children of his own. And he still knows and loves all the symphonies of Mahler. This performance is one of the best I've ever heard, and I heard the Mahler 3rd several times in my decade as a classical music reviewer for a large metropolitan daily in the '80s and '90s.
If you could, ask your son for us: as a child performing this work, did you sense how monumental it is? And did you feel old enough for it? I ask because the emotional swirl Mahler creates in No. 3 has always seemed almost too much to take, and it occurs to me that it should be rated PG-13 for (intense adult content or something).
Fabulous timpani at the end of the last movement. Those two guys really punched out their last few notes. Don't think I've ever seen a timpanist hit it so hard, and yet sound so clean and perfectly in tune. Bravo you guys!!
Yes, those guys were totally in sync with each other. There's also a great version of this symphony here on RUclips with Claudio Abbado and the Lucerne Festival orchestra. The timpani playing at the end is just as stunning.
Yes, this is one of the solo details in this work. Mahler did not wrote jazz-music, but especially in this symphony the instrumentalists are also intended to engage in relevant solo passages. For me is this one important fact, which makes Mahler's music so fantastic and entertaining.
In October 2018 I attended a wonderful performance of this piece by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra with this conductor! I love peacefulness of the final movement.
The most amazing thing in this symphony is probably the attention to detail, especially in the wind section. SO many little details, little musical decorations and ornaments, like a medieval book page. Not long and boring ambiguous phrases.
Mahler 3 ,the best!!!I believe that this phenomenal performance(in the right sense phenomenal becouse it is so special)will remain to be remembered as unique and enchantingly beautiful💗💕💙💗💕💙💗💕💙Braaaaaavo for conductor and magnificent orchestra!!!💕💕💕💗💗💗❤❤❤
Since I have listened this wonderful orchestra with many conductors I have fallen in love with its amazing performances and exceptional great sound. Congratulations for all the musicians. Under this maestro conductor all the interpretation are really sublime! Bravo Andrés!!!
Bravo Andres! si Sr. Garcia, es un placer escuchar como un musico de la categoria hace sonar una orquesta, la magnificencia de esta solo depende de su director mas que de la calidad musical de sus componentes.
He had a hard time with it and rewrote it more than once. Originally the song that now ends the Fourth Symphony was supposed to be the seventh movement of this already overlong symphony. When Mahler decided that the Adagio finale was sufficient, he added the loud bombastic ending heard hear. He was much more successful with the beautiful quite endings of the 9th and especially the 5th movement of the 10th Symphony.
for a hundred years I have loved the 4th and the 1st and only got to know the 2nd some years ago. But this is serenity at its most touching and why shouldn't the guy be passionate about such beautiful music???
The BREATH in its sounding grace, the HAND in heart's command, the SOUL in its lilting flight... and touched be our BEING... the music ... the music ... the music...
Extraordinario Andrés Orozco-Estrada, al frente de esta magnífica orquesta, que han conseguido una de las mejores versiones de esta maravillosa obra, que contiene algunos de los momentos más emotivos de toda la producción sinfónica de Mahler. A destacar, sobre todo este último movimiento, de una belleza y pasión casi sin parangón en la música; estas frases eternas que ascienden y ascienden y se encadenan hasta la resolución. Pocas veces la música es capaz de elevarnos en semejante medida. Y la aportación de Estrada, como en todo lo que le he visto, fuera de lo común, con una capacidad de mover el tiempo descomunal, y de extraer de la densa maraña orquestal aquellos sonidos por descubrir que nunca habíamos oído. Por ejemplo, es el primer director al que veo destacar el precioso juego de arpegios que hacen las cuerdas al final del primer movimiento, en el que los metales llevan, sin duda el protagonismo. El director colombiano se queda sólo por detrás del inmenso Bernstein, el auténtico arquitecto mahleriano del SXX. Grande, maestro! UN abrazo desde españa, hermano
Magical music moments happen sometimes. On this occasion the hr-Sinfonieorchester deliver a superb performance of the Mahler 3. Nathalie Stutzmann, and Jürgen Ellensohn deserve especial mention, but the whole orchestra respond unequivocally to the music, and to the direction of Andrés Orozco-Estrada. I'm so pleased to have subscribed to this channel. Look out for the live performances via RUclips on Friday evening. Thank you all for sharing this music with us.
As with Nature itself, the instruments of the orchestra in expression of diversity and in unity of purpose... and so we are touched by its sounding messages of BEING.
Bemerkenswert, dass man Mahler's Musik - die ich immer schon geliebt und geschätzt habe - im Jahre 2017 noch einmal neu hören darf!!!! Orozco-Estrada ist kompromisslos, selbstverständlich aggressiv, super klar in Denken und Handeln. Und siese Orchester des HR wächst ständig über sich hinaus und geht mit ihm. Großartig! Jürgen, alter deutscher Musiker
Ganz meine Meinung!!! Alte Oper Frankfurt als Konzertsaal und das Orchester kenne ich schon seit meiner Studentenzeit in Darmstadt in den Achtzigern. Sie waren unter Eliahu Imbal immer sehr gut. Mit Estrada-Orozco sind sie grandios geworden.
Was für eine ausdrucksvolle und tief empfundene Wiedergabe von G.Mahlers 3.Sinfonie! Das hr- Symphonieorchester,Nathalie Stutzmann sowie beide Chöre und Orozco-Estrada verstehen es, den Zuhörer in tiefer Ergriffenheit zu sensibilisieren.Elfriede Wölfer
I wish this performance would get issued on DVD or CD. With Jessye Norman gone, Stutzman sings the fourth movement better than anyone. Orozco-Estrada knows what he's doing too.
C'est vraiment une version de référence, Nathalie Stutzmann est sublime et bouleversante, le posthorn nous transporte dans un monde de mélancolie rêveuse, cette troisième Symphonie porte tout l'espoir de la Terre vers un monde meilleur, et le chef particulièrement inspiré par cette magistrale Symphonie nous emporte avec son orchestre au firmament de la musique symphonique. Bravo aussi au travail très professionnel des caméras.
C'est un hymne à la Musique, un chef d'oeuvre absolu de la littérature symphonique , cet Orchestre et son chef nous donnent une émotion qui nous transportent 'un bout à l'autre de cette 3ème symphonie jusqu'à cette finale qui nous transporte au firmament,. Le silence que porte le Chef sur lui est l'apothéose de cette admirable réussite musicale Merci à RUclips sans qui nous n'aurions jamais écouté ce concert.
Magnífica idea la del director!! Hacer una pausa en el primer movimiento 35minutos es lo que dura la quinta o séptima sinfonía de Beethoven; y cuando escuchas esa poderosa marcha del verano: KRAAAFTIIIGGG!!!!! 😃😃 Siempre quieres aplaudir en el concierto,; aún que la costumbre dicta que hasta que termine la sinfonía!!👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍 Bravooo!! maestros; Todos excelentes!!
Very effective. Reminded me of my first concert in our high school orchestra; we played the 4th movement of Tschaikovsky's 6th, and our director held a similar silence at the end -- stunning. On RUclips there is a video of this same orchestra / conductor playing the 6th, and he holds the silence for 50 seconds. I would have loved to be in that audience.
Superbia In The Ultimate- with Leibe So Gott - from War to Love and remembrance to the Caritas which we look to in Such uncertain times .its like Moses facing God on the Mount " what shall I say " I am who I am " only Mahler . Bravo to all who gave us this great Gift .
I loved this. I have not heard the whole work before in one performance from go to whoa. I was very moved. Some fascinating bits of orchestration. Loved Stutzmanns solo and the choirs. The conductors enthusiasm was wholly engaging and the acknowledgement at the end heartwarming. Thankyou For posting
Just awesome (perfect use of the word)! The adagio ending made the hairs on my neck stand up. Thank you Frankfurt Radio Symphony and A O-E, one of my favorite conductors!
Ich habe eine Aufführung des NDR Sinfonie Orchesters in der MuK in Lübeck gesehen. Das Konzert schien vom ersten bis zum letzten Ton eine PERFEKTE Aufführung gewesen zu sein. Wichtig zu wissen ist folgendes, damit die eigene Fantasie angeregt wird beim Hören dieses Werkes und damit die schöpferische Intention Gustav Mahlers verstanden wird: Es geht um die musikalische Darstellung der Entstehung der Welt (natürlich mit Hilfe der göttlichen Mitwirkung ==> Chor singt "Die himmlische Freud"). Seinerzeit waren die Menschen eben bibelgläubiger. Hört man unter Berücksichtigung dieser Information das Werk im Konzertsaal, wird man noch tiefer berührt von diesem Musikerlebnis. Zusammenfassend würde ich sagen: Das Werk ist der Hammer und gehört als "Erbe der Menschheit" klassifiziert. ❤️
I would go as far as to say there are only two levels of conducting Mahler symphonies: sublime, or utter garbage. Andres' conducting definitely belongs to the former
Just listened for the nth time - such a shame Seb (Sebastien Seidenberg, principal horn) has left. The part where he and Natalie complement each other, virtually the whole of the 4th movement, is simply stunning with amazing help from concertmaster Alejandro and Nicolas on oboe.
Andrés Orozco es de una sencibilidad inusitada, hace de su cuerpo y de su rostro todo un vehículo de comunicación para dirigir su Orquesta. Ha llegado muy merecidamente a posicionarse entre los mejores del mundo. Junto a Gustavo Dudamel han dejado muy en alto a Latinoamerica. Abrazos
Compartp absolutamente su opinion respecto del maestro Orozco-Estrada, es sin duda un gran conductor. Al mismo tiempo estoy en total desacuerdo respecto del Sr. Dudamel pues mas que un musico es un tecnico y es solamente un producto de los medios y de las influencias de su Sra. Madre, jams estara a la altura de los grandes como Kyril Petrenko,Berlin Filarmonica, eso si es un musico.
To those who might refer to this performance as inferior, as a staunch lover of this work for four decades, this ranks right up with ones I witnessed in person by Mehta, Tilson Thomas, Sir Simon Rattle, Erich Leinsdorf, et. al. It is quite spectacular.
I agree with you. Just attended a Mahler 3 with Mehta and the Israel PO at Teatro Colón. Rather square at times (especially the scherzo). The first movement was just short of being dislodged, so slow was the tempo. Wonderful, however the alto solo (Lioba Braun) and the choruses, as well as the sublime finale.
@Steven Moore I love both Mehta's 5th (prefer the newer, 2013 version with Los Angeles Philharmonic) and his 6th. In my humble opinion, they're probably the best renditions of those two symphonies out there (Orozco Estrada's are also fine by the way, but not as tidy). But it's true that his conduction is mediocre for the rest of Mahler's symphonies.
Rattle could have been one of the best interpreters of the 3rd. Sadly he insists on doubling the tempo during the apotheosis in the finale, when the timpani come in. Robbing the entire movement of it's climax.
This symphony changed my life.
Tell us more!
That's sad
makes two of us
I have listened to the Mahler Symphonies many times and I am blown away every single time by the time it ends.

Said to be the longest symphony ever, but I have never been bored of this. Beautiful, just beautiful

Extraordinario Andrés Orozco-Estrada, al frente de esta magnífica orquesta, que han conseguido una de las mejores versiones de esta maravillosa obra, que contiene algunos de los momentos más emotivos de toda la producción sinfónica de Mahler. A destacar, sobre todo este último movimiento, de una belleza y pasión casi sin parangón en la música; estas frases eternas que ascienden y ascienden y se encadenan hasta la resolución. Pocas veces la música es capaz de elevarnos en semejante medida.
Y la aportación de Estrada, como en todo lo que le he visto, fuera de lo común, con una capacidad de mover el tiempo descomunal, y de extraer de la densa maraña orquestal aquellos sonidos por descubrir que nunca habíamos oído. Por ejemplo, es el primer director al que veo destacar el precioso juego de arpegios que hacen las cuerdas al final del primer movimiento, en el que los metales llevan, sin duda el protagonismo.
El director colombiano se queda sólo por detrás del inmenso Bernstein, el auténtico arquitecto mahleriano del SXX.
Grande, maestro!
UN abrazo desde españa, hermano
A magnificent performance! My congratulations to Maestro Andres Orozco-Estrada and to the entire Orchestra!!!
The final movement says this to me: "Humans are destined to greatness"
The Mahler 3rd is a religious experience and Orozco-Estrada treats it that way, with a personal "Amen" at the end. Thanks for posting.
Magical music moments happen sometimes. On this occasion the hr-Sinfonieorchester deliver a superb performance of the Mahler 3. Nathalie Stutzmann, and Jürgen Ellensohn deserve especial mention, but the whole orchestra respond unequivocally to the music, and to the direction of Andrés Orozco-Estrada. I'm so pleased to have subscribed to this channel. Look out for the live performances via RUclips on Friday evening. Thank you all for sharing this music with us.
Masterpiece. One of the greatest symphonies of all time !
This wonderful performance is so emotional and heart-wrenching. I have no idea how the players keep their composure to create such a performance.
This my first time listening to Mahler, I like it.
As with Nature itself, the instruments of the orchestra in expression of diversity and in unity of purpose... and so we are touched by its sounding messages of BEING.
Not one day in my life passes without listening to (or at least thinking of) Mahler's music
real
Bemerkenswert, dass man Mahler's Musik - die ich immer schon geliebt und geschätzt habe - im Jahre 2017 noch einmal neu hören darf!!!! Orozco-Estrada ist kompromisslos, selbstverständlich aggressiv, super klar in Denken und Handeln. Und siese Orchester des HR wächst ständig über sich hinaus und geht mit ihm. Großartig!
Jürgen, alter deutscher Musiker
Ganz meine Meinung!!! Alte Oper Frankfurt als Konzertsaal und das Orchester kenne ich schon seit meiner Studentenzeit in Darmstadt in den Achtzigern. Sie waren unter Eliahu Imbal immer sehr gut. Mit Estrada-Orozco sind sie grandios geworden.
Was für eine ausdrucksvolle und tief empfundene Wiedergabe von G.Mahlers 3.Sinfonie! Das hr- Symphonieorchester,Nathalie Stutzmann sowie beide Chöre und Orozco-Estrada verstehen es, den Zuhörer in tiefer Ergriffenheit zu sensibilisieren.Elfriede Wölfer
What a fantastic ending. That D major chord just blossoms in that space!
Bellissima sinfonia e grande esecuzione. Bravo orchestra y bravissimo al direttore.
Maravilhoso!
Que maestro fantástico!
E esse final...nossa celestial!!!
Belo Horizonte
Uplifting. A true masterpiece both by composer and orchestra. BRAVO!
I wish this performance would get issued on DVD or CD. With Jessye Norman gone, Stutzman sings the fourth movement better than anyone. Orozco-Estrada knows what he's doing too.
C'est vraiment une version de référence, Nathalie Stutzmann est sublime et bouleversante, le posthorn nous transporte dans un monde de mélancolie rêveuse, cette troisième Symphonie porte tout l'espoir de la Terre vers un monde meilleur, et le chef particulièrement inspiré par cette magistrale Symphonie nous emporte avec son orchestre au firmament de la musique symphonique. Bravo aussi au travail très professionnel des caméras.
Bei Mahler habe ich immer das Gefühl, zum Schluß öffnen sich riesige Flügeltüren und lassen einen Blick auf die Unendlichkeit erhaschen. - Heinz
Schönes Zitat
Sehr schön gesagt, Danke
This conductor is born to conduct Mahler.
You have to see Bernstein.
@@mateusdearaujo3317 Who doesn't hearded Bernstein in Mahler ? Of course he know
"This conductor is born to conduct", Mahler.
What about Gustavo Dudamel?
C'est un hymne à la Musique, un chef d'oeuvre absolu de la littérature symphonique , cet Orchestre et son chef nous donnent une émotion qui nous transportent 'un bout à l'autre de cette 3ème symphonie jusqu'à cette finale qui nous transporte au firmament,. Le silence que porte le Chef sur lui est l'apothéose de cette admirable réussite musicale Merci à RUclips sans qui nous n'aurions jamais écouté ce concert.
Magnífica idea la del director!! Hacer una pausa en el primer movimiento 35minutos es lo que dura la quinta o séptima sinfonía de Beethoven; y cuando escuchas esa poderosa marcha del verano: KRAAAFTIIIGGG!!!!! 😃😃 Siempre quieres aplaudir en el concierto,; aún que la costumbre dicta que hasta que termine la sinfonía!!👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍 Bravooo!! maestros; Todos excelentes!!
best part is the lengthy silence at the conclusion
Yes! The silence was "louder" than the subsequent applause. Orosco-Estrada conducted the audience silence so effectively.
indeed, by raising his arms that high he kept people from clapping right away.
Very effective. Reminded me of my first concert in our high school orchestra; we played the 4th movement of Tschaikovsky's 6th, and our director held a similar silence at the end -- stunning. On RUclips there is a video of this same orchestra / conductor playing the 6th, and he holds the silence for 50 seconds. I would have loved to be in that audience.
It's as if in silence, he's saying "This mighty work!" Indeed, it is. A superb rendition!
watch the end of Abbado's version of the 9th
An extraordinary piece and an extraordinary performance. I am sorry that it had to end.
What a magnificent orchestra and conductor.
Superbia In The Ultimate- with Leibe So Gott - from War to Love and remembrance to the Caritas which we look to in Such uncertain times .its like Moses facing God on the Mount " what shall I say " I am who I am " only Mahler . Bravo to all who gave us this great Gift .
Great orchestra and wonderful conducting. Andrés Orozco-Estrada touches eternity.
I loved this. I have not heard the whole work before in one performance from go to whoa. I was very moved. Some fascinating bits of orchestration. Loved Stutzmanns solo and the choirs. The conductors enthusiasm was wholly engaging and the acknowledgement at the end heartwarming. Thankyou For posting
Impressionante a riqueza sonora e a versatilidade. Maravilhosa!
Bravissimo. Beautiful deep Langsam. Wonderful conductor.
Wanderful orchestra... great Mahler
Brilliant..The start of this my favorite symphony thrilled me always...phenomenal interpretation
Je réécoute cette version merveilleuse et profonde sans me lasser. Un vrai tour de magie musical !
Magnificent. I stood up and applauded when the symphony concluded.
Se nota que es Colombiano el director por lo expresivo, orgullo colombiano a la vista.
Me encanta tu comentario.
Posthorn starts at 51:40
Maestro Andrés Orozco-Estrada conducts Mahler supremely well. This is a wonderful third from the Master Composer.
Just awesome (perfect use of the word)! The adagio ending made the hairs on my neck stand up. Thank you Frankfurt Radio Symphony and A O-E, one of my favorite conductors!
My FAVORITE part starts in 20:37 and ends in 21:54 ... Perfection
The basses at the Ende tho...
This Is Definitely; One Of My Favo(u)rite; Frankfurt Symphony Orchestra Performances!!!!
it's the first time i know that "be our guest" is from this!
Amazing introduced of the last movement after the chair. Expression of heavenly peace. Golda here
Ich habe eine Aufführung des NDR Sinfonie Orchesters in der MuK in Lübeck gesehen. Das Konzert schien vom ersten bis zum letzten Ton eine PERFEKTE Aufführung gewesen zu sein. Wichtig zu wissen ist folgendes, damit die eigene Fantasie angeregt wird beim Hören dieses Werkes und damit die schöpferische Intention Gustav Mahlers verstanden wird: Es geht um die musikalische Darstellung der Entstehung der Welt (natürlich mit Hilfe der göttlichen Mitwirkung ==> Chor singt "Die himmlische Freud"). Seinerzeit waren die Menschen eben bibelgläubiger. Hört man unter Berücksichtigung dieser Information das Werk im Konzertsaal, wird man noch tiefer berührt von diesem Musikerlebnis. Zusammenfassend würde ich sagen: Das Werk ist der Hammer und gehört als "Erbe der Menschheit" klassifiziert. ❤️
There are only levels of magnificence when it comes to Mahler symphonies.
I would go as far as to say there are only two levels of conducting Mahler symphonies: sublime, or utter garbage. Andres' conducting definitely belongs to the former
@@carluy7351 Fortunately, I have yet to experience the latter.
This Is Truly; A Graduation; Into The Realm Of Upper Class-men; I Believe This To Be Grade: A; Quality Work!!!!
Just listened for the nth time - such a shame Seb (Sebastien Seidenberg, principal horn) has left. The part where he and Natalie complement each other, virtually the whole of the 4th movement, is simply stunning with amazing help from concertmaster Alejandro and Nicolas on oboe.
Samuel Seidenberg!
Andrés Orozco es de una sencibilidad inusitada, hace de su cuerpo y de su rostro todo un vehículo de comunicación para dirigir su Orquesta. Ha llegado muy merecidamente a posicionarse entre los mejores del mundo. Junto a Gustavo Dudamel han dejado muy en alto a Latinoamerica. Abrazos
Compartp absolutamente su opinion respecto del maestro Orozco-Estrada, es sin duda un gran conductor. Al mismo tiempo estoy en total desacuerdo respecto del Sr. Dudamel pues mas que un musico es un tecnico y es solamente un producto de los medios y de las influencias de su Sra. Madre, jams estara a la altura de los grandes como Kyril Petrenko,Berlin Filarmonica, eso si es un musico.
Antes que ellos la dejaron muy alta, musicalmente hablando, Daniel Barenboim, Martha Argerich y Claudio Arrau.
I like the way he accepted the applause, acknowledged players, and left the stage briefly after first movement.
Malher wrote "5 min pause" Is the end of first act. The other five mouvenets are the second one.
To those who might refer to this performance as inferior, as a staunch lover of this work for four decades, this ranks right up with ones I witnessed in person by Mehta, Tilson Thomas, Sir Simon Rattle, Erich Leinsdorf, et. al. It is quite spectacular.
+rkentburke Mehta sucks for Mahler.
I agree with you. Just attended a Mahler 3 with Mehta and the Israel PO at Teatro Colón. Rather square at times (especially the scherzo). The first movement was just short of being dislodged, so slow was the tempo. Wonderful, however the alto solo (Lioba Braun) and the choruses, as well as the sublime finale.
@Steven Moore I love both Mehta's 5th (prefer the newer, 2013 version with Los Angeles Philharmonic) and his 6th. In my humble opinion, they're probably the best renditions of those two symphonies out there (Orozco Estrada's are also fine by the way, but not as tidy). But it's true that his conduction is mediocre for the rest of Mahler's symphonies.
Rattle could have been one of the best interpreters of the 3rd. Sadly he insists on doubling the tempo during the apotheosis in the finale, when the timpani come in. Robbing the entire movement of it's climax.
@@Quotenwagnerianer Also Gergiev do this. It's disturbing and without sense...
