Beethoven: Symphony No. 7, 2nd movement | Paavo Järvi and the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 мар 2020
- Triumph and tragedy are the main feelings in Beethoven's Seventh - the tragedy having to do with the second movement, a sort of funeral procession. It was so well loved at the very first performance that the audience demanded for it to be repeated.
That almost never happens at a concert nowadays, not even with the daring and unconventional Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and their imaginative conductor Paavo Järvi. But on Deutsche Welle's RUclips channel, you can listen to the second movement of Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 in A Major, opus 92 as many times as you want.
This movement is marked "Allegretto," which could translate as "slightly fast." And that for a funeral march?
Certainly the first listeners must have perceived it as such: The premiere performance of Beethoven's Seventh was at a benefit concert in Vienna in December 1813 for wounded soldiers and their families. It came only two months after the Battle of Nations near Leipzig. The German name is "Völkerschlacht" (Slaughter of the Peoples), one of the most catastrophic wartime events in human history. It also marked the liberation from Napoleon's forces.
The sad, beautiful quality of this piece makes it very different from the other three movements of Beethoven's Seventh. Endlessly mournful - but also uplifting, it is still played at funerals today.
Deutsche Welle and Unitel Classica present Estonian conductor Paavo Järvi, conductor of the year 2019, and the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, recorded at the Beethovenfest in Bonn.

And me
Thank you Bashar. ❤
Thank you Bashar
❤ THERE IS GREAT LOVE HERE FOR YOU
Me too! Thanks Bashar!!
can listen to the 2nd movement everyday
I do most days!
Well performed. Beethoven dedicated this symphony for Austrian and Beverian soldiers who were wounded in the battle in Hanau in 1813 and the very first performancewas 8th December 1813. This second movement (Allegreto) was requested to be played again by popular request. Beethoven was a genius and an absolutely great man! 😅
I didn't know what is was inspired by. Thankyou
This has been used in several movies
I like the performance, though I know it is sacrosanct to suggest this....I prefer slower tempo realisation
@@alla5578i have to agree! i love this but a slower tempo is my preference!
@@alla5578How can we find out how fast was Allegretto for the musicians of the past?
This piece makes me feel chaos, peace, calm, the beginning and the end.
I utterly agree!
It is supposed to help letting go of the past
@@jengirard6463 who said that
@@widedPada9797 Bashar
Couldn't agree more. Profound sadness, followed by resignation then acceptance and finally peace.
I've played different Beethovan pieces on the piano, as a teen for contests....Fur Elise, Moonlight Sonata...still play for pleasure at 74. Never fully mastered The Pathetique, but love trying. Discovered this beauty a few years ago. He was my favorite composer as a teen & still is. How blessed we are to experience it!❤️👵
He is the best. I am trying to learn the piano. When i can play Moonlight Sonata third movement I will know that I have truly mastered it.
I love you Bashar ❤❤❤
Single best piece of music ever? Could be. Could very well be.
Some of the best composers of all time have said so.
For me it is, yes.
Haunted since childhood by this movement. By a million miles my favourite piece of music
@@petepower4217 qq
Beethoven symphony number 9 play something number 9 Beethoven
It does!
This piece comforts me with its beauty whenever I am grieving.
This movement feels like grief itself to me.
One of most beautiful movements in symphonies.
Lol Bashar sent me. This is beautiful, thank you❤
Me, too😄
One of my favorite movements. This man wrote music to wirhstand time and deservedly so.
The best of the best of the all times of the history of the Classical Music. A masterpiece.R.I.P Beethoven
Ludwig van Beethoven, was actually a great character because he was born with his invincible soul so as not to submit to the "high" social class, he is worthy of worldwide admiration not only for his great musical talent.
I have been listening to this on repeat for the past few days. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it.
Bashar sent me here also 💖
i am not a classical music person generally speaking, but watched this twice and it had me sat on the edge of my seat, jaw open, goosebumps all over... incredible
We're glad you enjoyed it. Make sure to follow us in order to not miss out in the future 😊
Words can’t express, what this song does for me. Wow. I wish I knew Beethoven, what a time
Completed in 1812, Beethoven's Seventh Symphony is one of his most popular works. It was dedicated to Austrian Count Moritz von Fries, nobleman and patron of the arts. On the plan symphonic, Beethoven imbues each movement with a single, persistent rhythmic motif, which he develops alongside melody and harmony through changes in duration, orchestration and texture. The famous second movement « Allegretto » which was encored when it was premiered in 1813, is in the darker key (A minor) which resembles a slow march. Structured in a double variation form, the music begins with the main melody played by the violas and cellos, which turns into an ostinato. This very simple motif of quarter notes and eighth notes is passed to the upper strings until the next theme is introduced by the upper string sections. The change in tonality is led by the clarinets, which play a quiet melody above the slightly restless triplets played by the violins below. The intricate string writing in this passage maintains the reader through the music. The movement is centered on a solemn processional rhythm. This rhythm at dark allure becomes the foundation for layers of new musical lines, the pressure of which eventually culminates in an enormous outpouring of emotion. Like the dance, a procession or cortege has a rhythm of its own and in this movement, the inexorable progression of its long-short-short-long-long rhythmic pattern can mirror the unstoppable march of time : All the subtlety of writing is here ! If all movement must end, then one can and must still move and live. Because of its context historical, Beethoven had great difficulty in composing this work, with its unprecedented energy in the history of music. This second movement is the only one to be interpreted independently of the symphony but also of all the work of the Master. *Lucien*
What a synopsis! Itself worthy of the music.

O thank you Susan! I couldn't receive a nicer compliment like this. *LM*
The way in which this leaps from strident to lilting to bittersweet and so on, is a joyous experience, thank you Ludwig. 🙏
true thank you Bashar ❤️✨
I'm not sure if it's what's intended. I love this symphony. I feel despair, realization, triumph... to name key feelings this gives me. I can almost feel myself get through a tumultuous time in my life...
One of the most moving movements of any symphony. God gave us Beethoven.
Le plus transcendant pour moi... Depuis mes 11 ans. Un choc qui se perpétue à chaque écoute .
"God" "gave" us everything

If you appreciate humour you can observe that i answered in english 😅
sometimes all a person needs is to listen to the 7th of Ludvig van after a long day at work :)
Those who says "consciousness is an illusion" disregard art's masterpieces, such this one, which are created (or discovered) by sharply conscious brains. While listening such a beautiful piece I say, consciousness is fundamental, may be the most fundamental thing of existence.
The finest pieces of music ever composed....ever.
Tiktok brought me here. Apparently this symphony has enlightening frequency.
Bashar?
Just read the same...therefore I am here.
Instagram for me and I can confirm it does nothing for my disheveled soul.
I recommend doing some shadow work. Soul changing process.

There’s no words to describe how this music moves me… great orchestra, great composer 🙏🏽😌
As it should.
Great conductor...!
this piece is timeless. almost feels as if it was written for this time period
This is one of my favorite classical music piece of all time, and I love Järvi's gentle theatricality on the podium. Beautiful!
Im here because of Bashar 😊
Thank you universe
This song is so soothing to the brain. It's helps me be at peace.
I've heard it dozens and dozens of times and it still gives me goose bumps. Those low minor notes at the beginning, as if portending something unspeakable, then the falling cadences of the higher violins. And it builds and builds until it explodes into grandeur and the beauty of the light.
We're glad you enjoyed it. Make sure to follow us in order to not miss out in the future 😊
Thank you Bashar!
I played this my freshmen year of high school, this is an epic piece
I am obsessed with the music of Beethoven. Much of his symphonic work could be characterized as Concerti for tympani and orchestra not so this beautiful movement which has been featured in several movies
My favorite piece of music. It's music to explore the cosmos to. The space in the music mirrors space itself in my mind anyway. Only Beethoven could construct this in this way.
Beethoven does a great job of incorporating his emotions in his music; undoubtedly the best composer, in this regard. Mozart has a larger body of compositions but most are mechanical with little emotion. I don't know if Beethoven is in heaven but his music should be.
Why the comparison? They both were great, amazing composers. However, Mozart died at 35, who knows how his music would evolve?
Beethoven better be in heaven
Beethoven brought this creation to earth, from his higher consciousness.
I’d cry if I hear this live. 🥲
Bashar brought me here, thank you Bashar! ❤
My favorite piece of music
Fantastic, so gentle and calm...I don't understand all the "Apocalyptic vibe" in "pop culture" of this beautiful movement
This is full of joy and so sweet 🎵
The first 3 minutes is supposed to be a healing frequency from divine sources. It’s not apocalyptic.
Well the movie "irreversible" brought me here. It's a f*cked up movie I recommend you don't watch it. However, it has influenced the vibe I get from this piece.
Thanks bashar
🙏🏼Bashar ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve really grown to appreciate many more of his symphonies over the years besides his popular 5 and 9
At some point, we have peaked out as a species. Music like this transcends the universe itself.
J'adore chaque note de cette interprétation. Rien de grandiloquent, jamais, la tension d'une émotion qui étreint, d'une vie qui cherche à échapper à sa pesanteur pour s'émanciper et s'envoler. Le tempo est respecté (ce qui n'est pas toujours le cas, souvent pris trop lent, comme un adagio). Allegretto a dit Beethoven. Il savait pourquoi. L'orchestre n'est pas trop important, aussi entend-on clairement chaque pupitre. C'est super, super, super.
J’adore croiser ici dans les commentaires des connaisseurs comme vous qui partagez votre savoir. Merci! 😊
@@_synapseChaque paire d'oreilles a sa propre valeur. Les émotions restent essentielles. Ce n'est que mon avis, après tout 🙂 belle journée à vous

Thank you Bashar❤
This symphony is perfection.
Absolutely phenomenal ❤❤❤
Genius
Thank you to Bashar! This feels amazing to me!
Beethoven is my favorite composer!
And he started doing movie soundtracks in the 1970's 😅 Most notably Zardoz and Clockwork Orange
Bashar's Comments sent me here!!🙏🌹🎶💜🎵♥️🌹
Thank you for that music.
Quite possibly my favorite piece. Absolutely brilliant, to put it lightly.
T.S. Eliot brought me here. This was played at his funeral.
Beautiful video. Thanks.
This music was ahead of its time. It's triumphant boss music !
Thanks Bashar
The first 3 minutes, thank you Bashar
03:14 absolutely beautiful
Indeed 🥲
Amazing piece it just takes you over
Long live the music selection of OG War Thunder. It is being missed.
Music is opening the doors to the other worlds
It does indeed, doesn't it?
Perfection
Beautifully done.
Bashar!!! Yes indeed. ❤
Vielen Dank!
Master Beethovan

Blessed
My favourite Conductor
I' am in no position to critique this on a technical level. Besides that, I genuinely think that those musicians are fabulous. Their tone and balance is perfect if such a thing exist. This is just a wish. I wish they would play it a tad and a half slower. Just to let time to every note to hurt like it should.
Playback speed 0.75 is not bad either
@@Rabauke4u I never tried it. What about the pitch?
@@nicklevy for my taste slightly too slow but worth a try. Pitch is fine
Absolutely agree. I swear I've heard it played slower before. Not sure where though
It's giving 'the king joined into battle' energy
3:55 - lovely
It's just such a beautiful song

Inspiring! Words fail to express the range of emotions; it's like a homily to the human spirit, encompassing with a tenderness all of mankind.
My favorite.

Love, Peace & Music! ❤
To me, this movement is really for the epic collapse and the heroic tragedy of who was once Beethoven’s hero, Napoleon. Movement II is then followed by a celebration of Wellington’s victory
Beethoven war seiner Zeit voraus
1000 jahre voraus. Weder mozart noch liztz bzw. Rachmaninov können ihm das wasser reichen.
Truly wonderful, I love this piece and lately have been trying to remember why by etc, and here it is. My interest by the way was brought back by watching an Italian cop show, with a ghostly detective, called the Red Door where a version of this piece is used,
HERE AS WELL
"Lest you truly believe you can talk my blade back into its sheath."
Yes
Eventually people will think that the conductor of the orchestra is Bashar

Vom auferlegten Drama befreit schenkt er uns die feinfühlige Musik, die Beethoven wohl gehört hat.. Danke
