After the composer had initially referred to the Sixth Symphony as Sinfonia caracteristica and Sinfonia pastorella, by the time of printing he called it "Pastoral" Symphony or "Remembrance of Country Life" and added in brackets "More the expression of feelings than painting". It was a premiered in the Theater an der Wien on the 22 December 1808 under the direction of the composer, who dedicated the piece to Franz Joseph Maximilian von Lobkowitz and the Russian Earl Rasumowskij. As early as the first beats of the first movement ("Pleasant, cheerful feelings on approaching the countryside"), the joyfulness and glee are clearly to be seen, feelings which dominate the whole movement. Were one to listen closer, one could almost hear the birdsong. In the second movement ("Scene by the brook") a quiet and gentle thema sounds over the regular rush of the stream, a theme that in the suite is varied in the orchestra section in various ways. In the coda to the movement, the woodwind section imitates the call of the nightingale, the quail, and the cuckoo. The third movement ("Happy gathering of villagers") is kept quite short. After a dancing orchestra theme, the wind instruments, in a chamber music passage, appear one by one and present their skills, until once again the orchestra wins the overhand. This sequence is repeated once and the the accompanying coda goes directly into the dramatic fourth movement ("Thunder-storm") and ends the party of the country folk. At the beginning of the final movement ("Shepherds" song: Grateful thanks to the Almighty after the storm") the horn finally sounds the famous shepherd's call, which ceremoniusly closes the symphony.
Everyone tends to praise the conductor, the soloist, the entire orchestra, but let's not forget the guy who wrote it. What a magnificent piece; you can actually hear the sun come out.
How wonderful: my favorite violinist conducting my favorite Beethoven symphony.
In my view this is the perfect interpretation. I've listened to literally dozens of recordings. The tempi are just right for every movement, neither ponderous nor rushed. Well done IPO and maestro Perlman!
Perfection. How pleasant to be able to listen online. Gorgeous.
So many orchestras do symphonies too fast. Just because they can. This is wonderful.
Bravo! Thank you for making this brilliant IPO performance with Maestro Perlman available.
Excellent performance of Beethoven's masterpiece. The last movement (Shepherds song) was my late mother's favourite & I always feel uplifted listening to it.
How a peace piece.
gracias musica de angeles
The credited soloists seem to correspond to the concerto that was performed before the symphony. Of course there is no piano here.
I love the storm!
참 좋습니다(very good)!

パールマン渾身のパストラール☀
He's actually a pretty good conductor!
Yeah !!!.....I Guess you Call this a Late Vocation in Life !! But In The Case of Mr. Perlman, BETTER LATE THAN NEVER !!!.....
I'm sorry, but he is not. He is entirely incompetent. The orchestra manages to stay together because they are highly skilled professionals with lots of experience with this piece, and they are able to follow each other. The only reason he is sitting there is because he is Itzhak Perlman, the great violinist. That is the only reason. If someone were to apply for entrance to a conservatory conducting program and conduct like this in their audition, they would not be admitted. This is fraudulent, and an insult to those who have devoted their lives to the art and craft of conducting.
@@nicholasfox966 ok buddy
Or you could dispute what I said.
@@nicholasfox966 A good performance is NOT just a case of 'staying together'. The conductor decides the tempi, dynamics etc. and it was exemplary! Your criticism of Perlman wouldn't hold water if you were listening to a audio only recording.
Pictures made by music...!
Why is he dressing in Chinese clothing?
A great violinist and bad conductor.
