    Proof that a small orchestra can still sound massive with the right music, performers, and room.

      Agreed, what a dynamite performance !!!!!

    Very clear, dynamic, attractive performance. No conductor. The concert master is leading and shaping very effectively. This is probably more or less how orchestras played in Beethoven's time where conductors still basically just gave the tempo and beat time. Absolutely beautiful.

    By far te best Beethoven in 30 years. How it overcomes the lack of big orchestra is the miracle in itself. But rather a genious conductor himself!

  • @karldelavigne8134

    This is so well balanced. The players are listening to each other and responding. And there is an infectious energy, which you notice in the way the rhythms have forward momentum. Very impressive.

    I miss playing with the orchestra so much...Once you've played in an orchestra you never want to miss it. It's such a special and unique experience to make music together and also to feel it together...I can't describe it.
    But thanks a lot for this wonderful performance! I really enjoyed it

    Unlike anything I've ever seen. Pretty impressive how everyone is mindful and paying attention to each other. You can notice it by their body language, the casual smiles and the eye contact. It just make the whole thing more energetic and wholesome. I'm always revisiting this one.

    Bravo! I often stand up as a fiddle player and sit down as a violinist. There is an added expressivity when you can put your entire body into it. There is a sort of dance that served this particular work well. The dynamics were outstanding. Unfortunately - since we all get older - this is for a more youthful group. For something this long, my feet would hurt.

    Incredble. Like everything they do, they make the familiar (and at times over-familiar) sound new . . . almost as if being composed before our eyes. Tremendous work. If it's possible to fall in love with an orchestra . . . Well, too late - I'm in love with NCO!

    I find the great Pekka Kuusisto's peculiar way of directing admirable. Breaking stereotypes achieves, in my opinion, an extraordinary result. Thanks for sharing.

    The second movement arrives and so do the tears... so moving.
    Love how many performers I see here I also see performing with the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra. So much fine music coming from Norway!

  • @nanxi1211
    @nanxi1211 2 года назад +3

    Pekka is bouncing on his knees giving the minimal but necessary direction of tempo throughout the symphony, subtly keeping the whole thing together and making sure all musicians have the same pulse. This is such a genius way of reinventing the role of the conductor - to minimise the power hierarchy while carrying out a unified musical idea at the same time.

    There is so much more energy and engagement in this interpretation than any other I can recall. Brilliant! (and I'm totally happy to forgive the small oops's in the ascending line at 1.18 as part of the human experience 🙂).

    • @Stone2home
      @Stone2home Год назад +1

      Yes, there was a good little bit of "the human experience" in a spot or two. But it was great though!

  • @philipbrace5804
    @philipbrace5804 8 месяцев назад

    They are all interactive intimately as though they are playing a Baroque suite. I'm not sure, however, as though the music was ever being This performed. But it makes for a springy edgy performance!

  • @waynelutton4634
    @waynelutton4634 Год назад

    I noticed some things about this symphony in this performance and video recording that I hadn't picked up on in Big Band recordings. Did members of the orchestra get goose bumps while playing the fourth movement? BTW, check out Herbert Kegel and the Dresden Philharmonic recording sometime. They rolled from the third movement into the fourth w/o a break. Nifty. Thanks for posting. Best Wishes for the New Year from a viewer in Washington,DC

    It is very highly balanced and controlled performance. It is very closed one from the ideal balances.
    But i think very sorry about that it was inserted the unexpected eight bars at 13:55.. poor thing..

      You don't need that... Chamber is listening to each other... No conductor means nobody can distract you with excessive gestures while playing 🙂🙂🙂 love chamber music for that 🙂🙂❤️❤️

    Este vídeo magnífico, mostra que não é necessário uma Orquestra grande, para apresentar uma grande obra; e, mostra igualmente como, músicos tocando de pé, envolvendo o corpo inteiro, podem fazer diferença numa interpretação mais eloquente. Aumentando o espigão, celistas também podem tocar de pé.

    lmao the concertmastewr smiled at 1:18 cuz someone played a wrong note in the violin section (there is no "perfect' concert, not tryna criticize here).

    naaahhhhhhh. I'm sorry people ,,, that one didn't land ,,,,,, it's all correct and together but it's so lackluster ,,,,,,,, sometimes the non-conductor thing becomes a Meme ,,,,,, that's what happened in this case ,,,,, to play well and alone is not enough for a great musical performance of a work like this ,,,,,,,, simply disappointing .......
