As you do with the "Pastoral" Symphony, so did I with Mozart's Don Giovanni, every night for years, from the Overture to the final Quintet. When I listen to the "Pastoral" Symphony, I always find myself in it; my whole life opens before me (1st Movement: Beethoven's joy at going for an afternoon picnic in the Wienerwald; youth setting out into life with idealism, boldness, and courage, not yet tempered or overwhelmed by sorrow, betrayals, failures, & suffering. 2nd Movement: Beethoven's lying beside a stream contemplating others (the peasants) also coming out for their day in the park; the loving gaze at others in their life journey as well. 3th and 4th Movements: the storm representing the oftentimes seemingly insurmountable struggles, sorrows, defeats, & wounds that make life almost unbearable. 5th Movement (the storm passes, the sun comes out again, the dark clouds dissipate. But here Beethoven leaves behind the moment of a particular storm's passing, and universalizes the storms of life being left behind, and the universal harmony and joy that awaits each and every one of us at the end of our earthly days. Hints, in Beethoven's moments of joy, of the universal bliss that he finally found, and expresses, in his final five String Quartets.

El inicio es un rodeo orquestal del piano al forte. Después se establece la calma con diversos motivos que proceden del tema primigen. Predominan los motivos de 3 ó 5 notas dentro de una armonía cristalina como un manantia dd aguas Purísima. Las familias orquestales se entremezclan con sinĝulaŕv ĥabilídad, El segundo movimiento (escena ĵunto al arroyo) es un alarde de ñotas contiguas y trinos; el segundo tema deriva a la dominante, con la madera y trinos de la cuerda. La armonía clara y la mezcla de sectores orquestales agudizan está armonía. Al final un toque de genialidad: el canto de tres pájaros imitador por solistas de la madera. El tercer movimiento recrea una fiesta pastoril en 3 por 4. De pronto la armonía modula a fa menor, es la tormenta que viene con toda su violencia: trémolos junto a acordes secos de la cuerda nos Dan esa sensación. Al final la tormenta se disipa, y se anuncia la melodía principal mediante un solo de trompa subrrallado por un acorde por quintas. Se trata de una de las melodías más hermosas que jamás pudo escŕibíř un ser humano; es la devoción con que los pastores dan gracias a Dios por la lluvia caída. Un segundo tema en pizzcato alterna preguntas y respuestas de cuatro notas so re un fondo de semicorcheas de los violines. Todo discurre en un ambiente de júbilo y gozo hasta el final.

Beethoven's Pastoral was the very first classical piece I heard, my father would play it when I was a child and I would listen from the hallway. This performance is the first and only time ever that I have felt like a child again, listening. Bravissima Ms. Matiakh and of course the great musicians of this orchestra.
The rebellious tone of the "Eroica" symphony (such courage & determination after the despair of "die Heiligenstadt Testament"), the haunting mystery of the 4th, the power and the epic struggle of the 5th, the sheer brilliance, warmth, joy and peace of the 6th, "Pastoral" (The final movement is for me the universal joy, peace, & harmony that Beethoven SENSES will be, after we have left the storms of life behind (the third and fourth movements), a share in the New Heavens and the New Earth promised in the Book of Revelation, the 7th's giddy and almost Bacchic frenzy and joy, were not all preparations for the 9th "Choral" Symphony. As much as I love all of Beethoven's symphonies, I see them and his piano sonatas as a prelude to his final five String Quartets, the greatest masterpieces ever composed. After near despair and suicide, after moments of joy, after much sorrow, and after his challenge to the existing "order" of his time, in the final String Quartets he arrives at the ultimate peace of mystical union with the divine, the highest form of prayer (mystical union and communion), the moment of surrender (Fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo, et in terra). There are those who say that Beethoven was an atheist. He did not find his inner harmony through the conventual religions of his time, but through his personal "Agony in the Garden" and Crucifixion, he arrived at the highest level of human fulfillment, in the mystical surrender to God.

Ravishing performance. A story from my cab driving days... Driving a chill fall evening I had the first movement of the Pastoral done by Claudio Abbado with the Vienna Philharmonic, one of the best, playing on the car CD. I was dispatched to a nondescript house in an ethnic working class neighborhood. Four loud-mouthed, hardcore, inner-city Italian girls, late teens or early twenties poured out and climbed into the car. They asked me to take them to a house about a kilometre away to pick up something then bring them back (don't want to conjecture what). Asked me to turn the radio to a hip hop station and crank it up, which I did. Their talk was loud and raw. Remember a line: "That Guido's such a little pimp!" We arrived at the house. They all got out and lolled about as one girl went inside. The hip hop was getting on my nerves so I turned it off and put on the Beethoven. After a couple minutes, transaction done, the girls ambled slowly back to the cab. I was about to turn off the Beethoven when something inside me rebelled. I thought "screw it." I pulled back my hand. The girls climbed in and I drove off. They listened in complete silence without a murmur of protest or derision as the lyrical majesty of the first movement swept over them. A block from their destination, the girl seated beside me said quietly, reverently, "We shoulda been listenin' to this from the start."
Hip Hop, Rap, and perhaps some others, are all counterfeit impressions of real music. Growing up as a rock musician along with other rock musicians, we were constantly enthralled by the rich beauty of all the classics.

Tengo mis dudas de que Beethoven es humano, digo por que ? estuvo un tiempo físicamente escribiendo, jamás se fue esta entre nosotros, sigue tan vigente como el primer dia.Asi lo siento, desde el cono sur, Argentina.
Mir steht der Mund offen. Wie kann man den mächtigen Beethoven so fein und zart dirigieren und musizieren, dass kleinste musikalische Nuancen hörbar werden? Dirigentin und Orchester ein phänomenales Team! Höchste Musikalität, die viel Freude schenkt!
Voluminosamente bella interpretación de esta pieza musical sinfonía ,n.6 estos músicos. Han sido los instrumentos de Dios para lo que El ha escrito en algún tiempo de su eternidad muchas veces somos solo instrumentos suyos mostrarnos su expresión a través de su música te alabo mi buen Dios por poder escucharte con sonidos tan sublimes desde mi querido Chile bendiciones a todos los aprecian tan bella música realmente celestial embriaga sublima nuestro ser
This is simply the best performance ever of my favorite piece ever! To the conductor and the orchestra (if they ever read this): Thank you so very very much!!!!!!! Every note in this performance felt like it meant something! You are all so amazing!!!!
@@RichardFeinman-yf7lx Oh, good point! You mean the sound engineers and audio people, right? I'm not too educated about that stuff... but yeah... I can tell the audio people did a good job!
Same, it is ridiculous, because that channel contains on of the greatest audio mastering in the classical music world and it it even not an album recording
The rural landscape and atmosphere created by this masterpiece soothe my heart tired of the hustle and bustle of the city This performance is flawless and stellar, and , absolutely stunning. From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun🇯🇵
I am absolutely captivated by this performance of Beethoven’s most ingratiating symphony!! Thanks, Frankfurt folks, once again for an outstanding experience.
Whether Iappy, sad or anywhere in between, this wonderful symphony works for me. Leonard Bernstein once said Betthoven was not "a great melodist". What utter rot. This symphony is filled with beautiful tunes.
I think it was Stravinsky who said that. As I heard it he said “Beethoven showed us how far you could get without a sense of melody. Bellini showed us that no matter how easy it came to you, it wasn’t enough.” I think Stravinsky was a very crabby guy. This symphony shows us how a short melodic line fragment can be repeated many times and we love it.
Actually, I gained some insight as to how Beethoven created some of his most beloved melodies...and as you already know there really are quite a few...through an analysis of this given by Mr. Bernstein. Beethoven used chordal structures to accomplish this since this makes most sense. Third intervals found within chords are intrinsically very pleasurable for the human ear and mind to listen to. That's how he did it. If you examine any of Beethoven's thematic material you will immediately see the connection and construct here. Check it out.
I think Bernstein's argument (if we are both thinking of the same interview here) was that Beethoven wasn't as interested in writting "great melodies" in the sense we traditionally think of them, with a clear 4 part structure and all that, but instead of coming up with comparatively short motifs that he can transform in all sorts of ways. To say Beethoven wasn't a great melodist is preposterous, it's greaking Beethoven, he wrote some of the most memorable jingles in history.
I think that Bernstein was being facetious. He knew that Beethoven was the greatest melodist in the history of Western classical music. His melodies are almost endless, with not a note out of place not a single note that wasn't necessary for the perfection of the work.
Stravinsky's favorite composer was Mozart. The competition between Mozart and Beethoven was a later fabrication. Beethoven was for a short time a student of Haydn, but it seems that he never met Mozart. He had wanted to study with Mozart, but, when he got to Vienna, he learned of his mother's final illness, followed by her death, and he had to return to Bonn. By the time he was able to return to Vienna, Mozart had died. Beethoven felt Mozart's spirit within himself, and wanted to continue Mozart's work from where Mozart had left off. Throughout his life he performed works of Mozart in concerts featuring his own works, and borrowed melodies from Mozart for some of his greatest works. The melody in his 3rd piano concerto was borrowed from Mozart's Bastien und Bastienne. I cannot fathom why Stravinsky would hate Beethoven. Genius that he was, Stravinsky should never have been jealous of another, though long-deceased, genius.
This is one of the best performances of Beethoven's 6th Symphony that I've experienced. I think that the primary reasons is the due to the conducting style of der Kapel Meister: It is one of pure emotion, which eminates from her hands, baton, and facecial movements, and is made evident in the sounds from the woodwinds, and especially the strings, horns. Bravo, Frau Matiakh, BRAVO!
Grossartig vielen Dank. Fantastische Gesamtleistung mit perfekten Solisten. Die Dirigentin hat hier die Pastorale zu hinreissender Schönheit und originaler Natürlichkeit gebracht. Ich lebe inMödling, wo diese Sinfonie entstand und diese Aufführung ließ Ort, Raum, Landschaft, Bach und Gewitter wie auch die Hochzeit fast sichtbar entstehen. Eine einmalig gute Einspielung. Bravo
I googled Beethoven's Sixth, Female Conductor. As all you ever see are men. They are great, but there are such amazing female conductors too! This made my morning.
Sehr feinsinnig dirigiert und von den Musikern auch aufgenommen. Sie hat offenbar die volle Sympathie dieses doch recht maskulin durchsetzten Klangkörpers. Die haben beim Proben sicher gemerkt: Ariane Matiakh kann was ! (Ein roßartiges Gegenmodell zum russischen Unpräsidenten.)
Loved the quicker tempo in the first movement. The orchestra are always exceptional here. And the sound/video team could teach a masterclass in presenting online concerts. Thanks for sharing this.
I probably got to know the sixth symphony by Leonard Bernstein's famous-infamous "Norton Lectures". He played one of his recordings of the quite repetitive part in full length. And he talked about "the birds and the bees".
Thank you for very very wonderful interpretation! I am Japanese. Many people in Japan also suffer from Covid 19 and stay home. I feel that your performance invites us outside and to wide world. The 5th movement after the 4th movement seems like a scene where people gradually gathered and gathered from their house to the open space.
This is an astonishingly good performance of what is perhaps Beethoven's most underrated symphony, possibly because of its programmatic nature and its pastoral overtones. I am largely ignorant of music theory, but if one judges by general criteria, such as unity of composition and continuity, there is no reason to value this symphony any less than the fifth symphony, despite that symphony's glorious synthesis of tumult and triumph, or the ninth with all the power of its inspiration. There is something godlike in the perfection that all trained musicians strive for, but I am paticularly impressed by this conductor and her orchestra. To experience performances of this sort must perhaps be reckoned as evidence of providence. My deepest gratitude and respect to all the musicians.
Traditionally music critics have followed a specific formula: Beethoven's odd-numbered symphonies are powerful, while his even-numbered symphonies are relaxed, hence not so great as the odd-numbered. What a tragedy! This formula relegates the 4th, 6th, and 8th to second tier, and elevates the 1st, 3rd,5th, 7th, and 9th to first tier. Is the 1st, as charming and innovative as it is, to be regarded as superior to the 4th, 6th, and 8th? Come on! And what about the 2nd, which resembles Beethoven's early ballet, the Creatures of Prometheus?
Hace sesenta años, preso y desterrado por conciencia en las arenas del Sahara, me acompañaba esta melodía, que sonaba en un pequeño transistor, y sentí tanta liberación moral y espiritual que me ha acompañado toda mi vida. Hoy será el centenar de veces que me sigue deleitando y me eleva a lo más alto de la paz con Dios frente a las guerras. Oh! Si en lugar de las bombas, escucharan esta música que calma el corazón, que diferente serían los resultados.
Not to underrate this performance, check out Szell and Cleveland from their boxed Beethoven cycle. Truly magnificent! Check out the Myron Bloom horn solo at the beginning of the 5th movement. His expressiveness just blow me away.
Beautifully recorded performance. The sound is so clear, especially woodwinds and the editing shows knowledge about the piece. Thank you for putting this out on youtube! Beethoven's 6th symphony is such a timeless classic, there's never too much of it, Beethoven was a brilliant orchestral composer.
Incroyable ! j'ai l'impression de découvrir toutes les subtilités de la 6ème symphonie !! très bien dirigé, et cet orchestre est vraiment au top ! et en plus fort bien filmé !!! Merci à tous et fière de cette cheffe française !!! bravo !!!
Beethoven 6. Sinfonie (Pastorale) - hr - Sinfonieorchester - Ariane Matiakh I’ve enjoyed this delightful Symphony since I was a young girl. I had the pleasure on 6 October this year, of going to my first concert since COVID-19, which was presented by The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra @ The Symphony Hall in the City of Birmingham, England) 🇬🇧 to watch and listen to this magnificent music. It’s definitely one of many of my favourite Symphonies. It was absolutely wonderful that we can, once again, listen to beautiful music again in front of a wonderful orchestra. I’m hoping to go again later this year. There is nothing that gives me more pleasure than attending a concert at a venue with the orchestra, complete with the conductor, audience too. I have thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful rendition with a big smile 😃 on my face. Thank You 🙏 for the wonderful orchestra. !!!! Absolute perfection. Aghhh There isn’t anything lovelier than walking through the countryside by a babbling brook and listening to the birds 🦅 twittering from above.
Stunning performance, fantastic quality of sound and picture. At this moment of time, this is the best version of 6th symphony on RUclips. I've listened all of them many times. There is no doubt about that. It’s great to see when the conductor enjoys the concert so much Tank You Frankfurt Radio Symphony to share this wonderful concert.
Diese Lautmalerei der Pastorelen ist so bildhaft, so unendlich schön! Besonders nach dem heftigen Gewitter, wenn dann die Sonne wieder aufgeht, klingt es so tröstlich, damals, wie heute und sagt uns:es wird alles wieder gut!
An absolutely wonderful performance. The sound recording and production is phenominal- the stereo placement of the the instrument sections is very well done.
No.6 is the very countryside landscape that I remember from my childhood. The comfort and wonderfulness of this orchestra‘s performance is out of this world, and off the charts. In this performance, all is full of far superior splendor A corner of Tokyo of Japan
Such a beautiful execution👏👏👏 Such a wonderful register! 👏👏👏 Ahhh Beethoven, my "old sport", I'll confess you something, your 'Ninth', 'Fifth', 'Third' and 'Seventh' symphonies don't need comments, such genius, beauty and impact that each one of them gives me (live then...) And even so, your 'Sixth, Pastoral' It's still the symphony that moves me the most, it was love at first hearing! Amazing how it is an antithesis of its sister, the 'Fifth'! It is of a delicate beauty that always takes my heart to a distant land, peaceful, fragrant and dreamy.... And I was thrilled again with this performance, both by the excellence of the conduction and the "close up" on the naipes, in each solo...wonderful!!! 🎶🎶🎶 Bravo! Ariane Matiakh👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Bravo! Frankfurt Radio Symphony👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Thank you hr-Sinfonieorchester👍👍👍
The first time I heard this piece I was eleven and it was an instant crush I would come home from school to listen to this almost daily! VOX Vienna Symphony Orchestra with Otto Klemperer (STPL 56.960) 1967
Maravillosa interpretación de una de las más bellas obras del genio de Bonn!! Han hecho brillar a La Pastoral de una manera sublime!!! Me encantó tu dirección, Ariane!!!!! Y sigo preguntándome cómo un ser humano puede inspirarse de esa manera para conjugar sonidos y crear una Sinfonía tan dulce y potente a la vez! Es Magia!!! Gracias a a toda la orquesta por esta interpretación que fue genial en cada instrumento!!!!!! Abrazo fuerte y conmovido desde Argentina!!
The more I hear this wonderful orchestra, the more I just love it. This playing was stupendous, of the very highest quality, skill and beauty of expression... the clarity of the audio presentation - outstanding. Just one small matter re tempo.... the peasants in their merry-making seemed just to have returned from a workout at the Gym, and were super fit. Only in this way could they have danced to the tempo we heard, but I loved it all the same....
I agree Antoine. I am impressed with the dynamics - that is not so much as to say how loud it can go - but rather the small shifts in volume that give the performance life. I have about half a dozen interpretations in my CD & LP collection but I think this one is best!
Those "villagers" are really CrossFit competitors disguised in lederhosen. Ever since high school they've been reliving gym class for four hours every day.
The 6th "Pastorale" is no doubt the single best enjoyable master piece of the symphonies by Beethoiven, and the 2nd movement is the most pristine one. For this rendition, the oboe and the flute stand out.
Esta GENIAL sinfonia No. 6 o "PASTORAL" de Beethoven, es la mas breve de todas. Posee una increible DIVERSIDAD melodica deliciosa que encanta el alma humana al escucharla en su integridad (y verla) en la interpretacion y direccion de los EXTRAORDINARIOS protagonistas de cualquier respetable Sinfonica...Estos legados divinos de los GENIOS del Arte Musical, enaltecen al genero humano en nuestro basto universo, haciendo de nosotros como los LEGITIMOS lideres del Universo. Saludos de Cusco-Peru.
Such a beautiful rendition of Beethoven's 6th and so refreshing to see a woman conducting a great orchestra. Kudos to all the musicians at the HR Symphony and to Ariane Matiakh❤
I’ve been playing Beethoven’s klavir for over 50 years. I cannot get tired of his music, though I have traveled my life with all modern music as jazz, rock, rap, synth, etc. Listening to the 6th, one can surely proclaim that even Impressionism in music starts with Beethoven’s works. Jazz? Listen to his last klavir Sonata’s second part. Syncopation? It is all of his music. To mention a few things, he developed in World’s music. When I die, I will surely miss only one thing - Beethoven’s music.
Very beginning the first motive is so beautiful , juicy articulation and natural tempo. They say that Beethoven said " Tempo is Music"(Music is Tempo) The first motive is veryveryvery nice throughout first movement, especially the last bar is so so sooooo beautiful.
Believe me, I had goosebumps all over me and a shiver ran down my spine while listening to this. I felt this music, what it meant to say. Beethoven at his best! A wonderful Performance!!! Kudos!!
Ariane Matiakh -- tremendous Pastorale. Already one of my favorites, and I'm just into the first movement. Clear lines, beautiful phrasing and articulation. Sounds like a chamber-sized ensemble.
i listen to beethovens 6 sinfonie since 30 years, EVERY DAY, and until today, it does not get boring…great performance

Ravishing performance. A story from my cab driving days...
Driving a chill fall evening I had the first movement of the Pastoral done by Claudio Abbado with the Vienna Philharmonic, one of the best, playing on the car CD.
I was dispatched to a nondescript house in an ethnic working class neighborhood. Four loud-mouthed, hardcore, inner-city Italian girls, late teens or early twenties poured out and climbed into the car. They asked me to take them to a house about a kilometre away to pick up something then bring them back (don't want to conjecture what). Asked me to turn the radio to a hip hop station and crank it up, which I did. Their talk was loud and raw.
Remember a line: "That Guido's such a little pimp!"
We arrived at the house. They all got out and lolled about as one girl went inside. The hip hop was getting on my nerves so I turned it off and put on the Beethoven. After a couple minutes, transaction done, the girls ambled slowly back to the cab. I was about to turn off the Beethoven when something inside me rebelled. I thought "screw it."

美好的回憶:1963年我讀中一時首次聆聽到這部精美的曠世巨作,自那以後便情不自禁地沉浸其中。那是一張由我姑婆杜宇飛女士在1936年參加柏林奧運會後從德國帶回上海的黑膠唱片,一面是“貝6”反面是“門德爾松E小調協奏曲”。至今令我神往、緬懷。
Mir steht der Mund offen. Wie kann man den mächtigen Beethoven so fein und zart dirigieren und musizieren, dass kleinste musikalische Nuancen hörbar werden? Dirigentin und Orchester ein phänomenales Team! Höchste Musikalität, die viel Freude schenkt!
Comfort and nostalgia of No6 are immeasurable and beyond description
Voluminosamente bella interpretación de esta pieza musical sinfonía ,n.6 estos músicos. Han sido los instrumentos de Dios para lo que El ha escrito en algún tiempo de su eternidad muchas veces somos solo instrumentos suyos mostrarnos su expresión a través de su música te alabo mi buen Dios por poder escucharte con sonidos tan sublimes desde mi querido Chile bendiciones a todos los aprecian tan bella música realmente celestial embriaga sublima nuestro ser
This is simply the best performance ever of my favorite piece ever! To the conductor and the orchestra (if they ever read this): Thank you so very very much!!!!!!! Every note in this performance felt like it meant something! You are all so amazing!!!!
agree
It's a great version. I recommend Pierre Montreux, Wiener Philharmoniker, 1958.
@@emiledarraghbarry Thanks! I just found it and bookmarked it... and I will definitely give it a listen some time in the next few weeks!
Agree but don’t forget the engineers. Balance and clarity not heard on many.
@@RichardFeinman-yf7lx Oh, good point! You mean the sound engineers and audio people, right? I'm not too educated about that stuff... but yeah... I can tell the audio people did a good job!
Fantastica, gioiosa,romantica, dolce ❤
This conductor is feeling it!
Her & the musicians are actually moving me tears
Es ist eines der schönsten symphonischen Werke des großen Beethoven.
I was especially pleased with the sound of the woodwinds in this performance.
Same. Came looking for that comment
Same, it is ridiculous, because that channel contains on of the greatest audio mastering in the classical music world and it it even not an album recording
Unsung hero. i think the engineer did great job especiallly bringing out the woodwinds.
The rural landscape and atmosphere created by this masterpiece soothe my heart tired of the hustle and bustle of the city
This performance is flawless and stellar, and , absolutely stunning.

This conductor, Ariane Matiakh, is a delight to watch.
She is a delight to o lissen... I think this performance is wonderful!
The female conductor does a brilliant lead, well done.
I am absolutely captivated by this performance of Beethoven’s most ingratiating symphony!! Thanks, Frankfurt folks, once again for an outstanding experience.
Whether Iappy, sad or anywhere in between, this wonderful symphony works for me. Leonard Bernstein once said Betthoven was not "a great melodist". What utter rot. This symphony is filled with beautiful tunes.
I think it was Stravinsky who said that. As I heard it he said “Beethoven showed us how far you could get without a sense of melody. Bellini showed us that no matter how easy it came to you, it wasn’t enough.” I think Stravinsky was a very crabby guy. This symphony shows us how a short melodic line fragment can be repeated many times and we love it.
Actually, I gained some insight as to how Beethoven created some of his most beloved melodies...and as you already know there really are quite a few...through an analysis of this given by Mr. Bernstein. Beethoven used chordal structures to accomplish this since this makes most sense. Third intervals found within chords are intrinsically very pleasurable for the human ear and mind to listen to. That's how he did it. If you examine any of Beethoven's thematic material you will immediately see the connection and construct here. Check it out.
I think Bernstein's argument (if we are both thinking of the same interview here) was that Beethoven wasn't as interested in writting "great melodies" in the sense we traditionally think of them, with a clear 4 part structure and all that, but instead of coming up with comparatively short motifs that he can transform in all sorts of ways. To say Beethoven wasn't a great melodist is preposterous, it's greaking Beethoven, he wrote some of the most memorable jingles in history.
I think that Bernstein was being facetious. He knew that Beethoven was the greatest melodist in the history of Western classical music. His melodies are almost endless, with not a note out of place not a single note that wasn't necessary for the perfection of the work.
Stravinsky's favorite composer was Mozart. The competition between Mozart and Beethoven was a later fabrication. Beethoven was for a short time a student of Haydn, but it seems that he never met Mozart. He had wanted to study with Mozart, but, when he got to Vienna, he learned of his mother's final illness, followed by her death, and he had to return to Bonn. By the time he was able to return to Vienna, Mozart had died. Beethoven felt Mozart's spirit within himself, and wanted to continue Mozart's work from where Mozart had left off. Throughout his life he performed works of Mozart in concerts featuring his own works, and borrowed melodies from Mozart for some of his greatest works. The melody in his 3rd piano concerto was borrowed from Mozart's Bastien und Bastienne. I cannot fathom why Stravinsky would hate Beethoven. Genius that he was, Stravinsky should never have been jealous of another, though long-deceased, genius.
Clearly heaven sent!
This is one of the best performances of Beethoven's 6th Symphony that I've experienced. I think that the primary reasons is the due to the conducting style of der Kapel Meister: It is one of pure emotion, which eminates from her hands, baton, and facecial movements, and is made evident in the sounds from the woodwinds, and especially the strings, horns. Bravo, Frau Matiakh, BRAVO!
I totally agree with you. It is very meaningful that the conductor is a woman.
Grossartig vielen Dank. Fantastische Gesamtleistung mit perfekten Solisten. Die Dirigentin hat hier die Pastorale zu hinreissender Schönheit und originaler Natürlichkeit gebracht. Ich lebe inMödling, wo diese Sinfonie entstand und diese Aufführung ließ Ort, Raum, Landschaft, Bach und Gewitter wie auch die Hochzeit fast sichtbar entstehen. Eine einmalig gute Einspielung. Bravo
I googled Beethoven's Sixth, Female Conductor. As all you ever see are men. They are great, but there are such amazing female conductors too! This made my morning.
Yeah. She is great. I agree 200%
心地よい 田園風景を想像しながらこの名曲を聴いていると浮世の嫌なこと煩わしさを忘れます。
Wonderfull, worderfull! Especially the 2nd part. Great orchestra and conductor!
The comfort of No.6 is irreplaceable
As always
The Magnificent Pastoral restores the mind, the heart and the soul!
Sehr feinsinnig dirigiert und von den Musikern auch aufgenommen.
Sie hat offenbar die volle Sympathie dieses doch recht maskulin durchsetzten Klangkörpers.
Die haben beim Proben sicher gemerkt: Ariane Matiakh kann was !
(Ein roßartiges Gegenmodell zum russischen Unpräsidenten.)
So schön habe ich die Pastorale selten gehört, vielen Dank 😮
Beethoven es simplemente fantástico, grandioso, único, innovador, irrepetible, genial...🦖
Senhor. *Mauro Antonio* , No meu modo pessoal de pensar, eu considero : *"Bach um Avô, Beethoven um Pai e Mozart um Bebê"* .

*Señor Mauro Antonio, Gracias desde Brasil !*
É uma pena que em nosso continente poucas pessoas apreciam a musica erudita .
This is phenomenal. Exquisite performance. Full of nuance and suppleness. The best Pastorale I have ever listened to.
Totally one of my favorite symphonies ♥
This is the first time I have listened to Ariane Matiakh conduct. Wow! Wonderful!
Tant mieux pour vous !
My very favorite piece of Beethoven
Simply a GREAT PERFORMANCE! And I love how Ariane acknowledged the folks at the end. All conductors should follow her lead.
Loved the quicker tempo in the first movement. The orchestra are always exceptional here. And the sound/video team could teach a masterclass in presenting online concerts. Thanks for sharing this.
A jog in the country?
My favourite Beethoven is the Pastorale. It was also my introduction to classical music. Beethoven was, and remains a genius.
I probably got to know the sixth symphony by Leonard Bernstein's famous-infamous "Norton Lectures". He played one of his recordings of the quite repetitive part in full length. And he talked about "the birds and the bees".
Thank you for very very wonderful interpretation! I am Japanese. Many people in Japan also suffer from Covid 19 and stay home. I feel that your performance invites us outside and to wide world. The 5th movement after the 4th movement seems like a scene where people gradually gathered and gathered from their house to the open space.
but Covid 19 is not a ilnes ist a weapon against people
My friend, you have a great sense of imagination !!!!!!!!!!
Всё хорошего Вам, будьте жив и здоров!
Ti auguro una veloce guarigione dalla tua malattia. E, se posso, con tutto il dovuto rispetto, Buon Natale 2021.
Wonderful observation
Great Performance, bravo Maestro or Maestra…I was useless until RUclips broke the spell with a damn add!
On ne peut pas exister sans plaisir, même une seconde et c’est difficile d’avoir du chagrin très longtemps. Ainsi va l’existence 💃
C’est vrai!
@@giancarlobalansino2132 ruclips.net/video/48hv5AqpZvs/видео.html
This is an astonishingly good performance of what is perhaps Beethoven's most underrated symphony, possibly because of its programmatic nature and its pastoral overtones. I am largely ignorant of music theory, but if one judges by general criteria, such as unity of composition and continuity, there is no reason to value this symphony any less than the fifth symphony, despite that symphony's glorious synthesis of tumult and triumph, or the ninth with all the power of its inspiration.
There is something godlike in the perfection that all trained musicians strive for, but I am paticularly impressed by this conductor and her orchestra. To experience performances of this sort must perhaps be reckoned as evidence of providence. My deepest gratitude and respect to all the musicians.
It’s not his most underrated symphony. Where do you get that?
Traditionally music critics have followed a specific formula: Beethoven's odd-numbered symphonies are powerful, while his even-numbered symphonies are relaxed, hence not so great as the odd-numbered. What a tragedy! This formula relegates the 4th, 6th, and 8th to second tier, and elevates the 1st, 3rd,5th, 7th, and 9th to first tier. Is the 1st, as charming and innovative as it is, to be regarded as superior to the 4th, 6th, and 8th? Come on! And what about the 2nd, which resembles Beethoven's early ballet, the Creatures of Prometheus?
Ich bin begeistert! Sehr gut, meine Dame!
Bravo from the US, is my favorite symphony Excellent!!❤
Hace sesenta años, preso y desterrado por conciencia en las arenas del Sahara, me acompañaba esta melodía, que sonaba en un pequeño transistor, y sentí tanta liberación moral y espiritual que me ha acompañado toda mi vida. Hoy será el centenar de veces que me sigue deleitando y me eleva a lo más alto de la paz con Dios frente a las guerras. Oh! Si en lugar de las bombas, escucharan esta música que calma el corazón, que diferente serían los resultados.
Perfekte Bildregie, jeder Schnitt sitzt!
Una Pastoral auténticamente Beethoveniana con una orquesta siempre en la perfección y excelentemente dirigida.
Danke viel!!
Veramente eccezzionale bravissimi direttore e orchestra una esecuzione della Pastorale che sarebbe piaciuta anche all'autore.Entusiasmante.
This is the best version of the Beethoven 6th I have heard. Perfect in every way. Bravi and thank you!
Not to underrate this performance, check out Szell and Cleveland from their boxed Beethoven cycle. Truly magnificent! Check out the Myron Bloom horn solo at the beginning of the 5th movement. His expressiveness just blow me away.
La fluidité des rivières la tendresse verte de la nature les caprices du ciel la joie fragile des hommes tout est là dans cette musique emballante…
TRÈS BELLE !
This will always be one of my favorite symphonies, and now this is one of my favorite performances of it. Bravo!
Beautifully recorded performance. The sound is so clear, especially woodwinds and the editing shows knowledge about the piece. Thank you for putting this out on youtube! Beethoven's 6th symphony is such a timeless classic, there's never too much of it, Beethoven was a brilliant orchestral composer.
I am behind you 100%
Incroyable ! j'ai l'impression de découvrir toutes les subtilités de la 6ème symphonie !! très bien dirigé, et cet orchestre est vraiment au top ! et en plus fort bien filmé !!! Merci à tous et fière de cette cheffe française !!! bravo !!!
Un grazie❤immenso al grande Beethoven, al direttore, e A CIASCUN ORCHESTRALE❤🥲
Beethoven 6. Sinfonie (Pastorale) - hr - Sinfonieorchester - Ariane Matiakh
I’ve enjoyed this delightful Symphony since I was a young girl.
I had the pleasure on 6 October this year, of going to my first concert since COVID-19, which was presented by The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra @ The Symphony Hall in the City of Birmingham, England) 🇬🇧 to watch and listen to this magnificent music.
It’s definitely one of many of my favourite Symphonies.
It was absolutely wonderful that we can, once again, listen to beautiful music again in front of a wonderful orchestra.
I’m hoping to go again later this year.
There is nothing that gives me more pleasure than attending a
concert at a venue with the orchestra, complete with the conductor, audience too.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful rendition with a big smile 😃 on my face.
Thank You 🙏 for the wonderful orchestra.
!!!! Absolute perfection. Aghhh
There isn’t anything lovelier than walking through the countryside by a babbling brook and listening to the birds 🦅 twittering from above.
My favorite music... divine!
Stunning performance, fantastic quality of sound and picture.
At this moment of time, this is the best version of 6th symphony on RUclips.
I've listened all of them many times. There is no doubt about that.
It’s great to see when the conductor enjoys the concert so much
Tank You Frankfurt Radio Symphony to share this wonderful concert.
Montreux, Wiener Philharmoniker, 1958.
Ich habe diesen Konzert soviel mal zugehört. Ich bin so dankbar für die Freude, die Sie mir geschenkt haben.
Ya!
This is really the most inspiring piece of classical music ever composed.
Cuique suum !
Guiseppe Verdi's Otello (Desdemona's final night), or Bach's St. Matthew Passion.
Diese Lautmalerei der Pastorelen ist so bildhaft, so unendlich schön! Besonders nach dem heftigen Gewitter, wenn dann die Sonne wieder aufgeht, klingt es so tröstlich, damals, wie heute und sagt uns:es wird alles wieder gut!
The best Pastorale I ever lisitened. Thank you.
Bravo maestrina.
An absolutely wonderful performance. The sound recording and production is phenominal- the stereo placement of the the instrument sections is very well done.
个人最喜欢的交响曲即是这部贝多芬的第六田园交响曲,如此安详,优美、可以让人静心,放下一切,沉入其中,从中学时开始听田园,听了几十年,对它的喜爱依然不变!
Amongst Beethoven’s best arrangements. Truly one of the sweetest works to come from him.
Yes this is my new favorite Beethoven 6th.
No.6 is the very countryside landscape that I remember from my childhood.
The comfort and wonderfulness of this orchestra‘s performance is out of this world, and off the charts.
In this performance,
all is full of far superior splendor

@@davidjones-bh5xg Leider, haben Sie Recht.
Uma sinfonia que não me canso de escutar.........que adoro
Very Fresh, just like a morning breeze.
Maravillosa Obra y ejecución e interpretación!! Perfecta ☺️!!! Qué dirección y Sinfónica!!! Preciosa!!! 😂❤❤
Such a beautiful execution👏👏👏 Such a wonderful register! 👏👏👏
Ahhh Beethoven, my "old sport", I'll confess you something, your 'Ninth', 'Fifth', 'Third' and 'Seventh' symphonies don't need comments, such genius, beauty and impact that each one of them gives me (live then...)
And even so, your 'Sixth, Pastoral' It's still the symphony that moves me the most, it was love at first hearing! Amazing how it is an antithesis of its sister, the 'Fifth'!
It is of a delicate beauty that always takes my heart to a distant land, peaceful, fragrant and dreamy.... And I was thrilled again with this performance, both by the excellence of the conduction and the "close up" on the naipes, in each solo...wonderful!!!
🎶🎶🎶
Bravo! Ariane Matiakh👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Bravo! Frankfurt Radio Symphony👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you hr-Sinfonieorchester👍👍👍
...what a sensitive performance ! Vielen Dank !
The first time I heard this piece I was eleven and it was an instant crush I would come home from school to listen to this almost daily! VOX Vienna Symphony Orchestra with Otto Klemperer (STPL 56.960) 1967

Enchanting masterpiece.
Bravo maestra Ariane & the Orchestra ; I love you "both"!!!
The maestra is
outstanding. ❤❤
That is such a good recording of Beethoven's pastorale. Nicely done, marvelous!
Ariane Matiakh - it is pure pleasure watching her elegancy.
Magnífica!!! Qué Obra maravillosa y su interpretación!! Genial 😊👍!!!!😂
Maravillosa interpretación de una de las más bellas obras del genio de Bonn!! Han hecho brillar a La Pastoral de una manera sublime!!! Me encantó tu dirección, Ariane!!!!! Y sigo preguntándome cómo un ser humano puede inspirarse de esa manera para conjugar sonidos y crear una Sinfonía tan dulce y potente a la vez! Es Magia!!! Gracias a a toda la orquesta por esta interpretación que fue genial en cada instrumento!!!!!! Abrazo fuerte y conmovido desde Argentina!!
The more I hear this wonderful orchestra, the more I just love it. This playing was stupendous, of the very highest quality, skill and beauty of expression... the clarity of the audio presentation - outstanding.
Just one small matter re tempo.... the peasants in their merry-making seemed just to have returned from a workout at the Gym, and were super fit. Only in this way could they have danced to the tempo we heard, but I loved it all the same....
They danced at Beethoven's metronome mark :)
I agree Antoine. I am impressed with the dynamics - that is not so much as to say how loud it can go - but rather the small shifts in volume that give the performance life. I have about half a dozen interpretations in my CD & LP collection but I think this one is best!
Those "villagers" are really CrossFit competitors disguised in lederhosen. Ever since high school they've been reliving gym class for four hours every day.
The 6th "Pastorale" is no doubt the single best enjoyable master piece of the symphonies by Beethoiven, and the 2nd movement is the most pristine one. For this rendition, the oboe and the flute stand out.
Esta GENIAL sinfonia No. 6 o "PASTORAL" de Beethoven, es la mas breve de todas. Posee una increible DIVERSIDAD melodica deliciosa que encanta el alma humana al escucharla en su integridad (y verla) en la interpretacion y direccion de los EXTRAORDINARIOS protagonistas de cualquier respetable Sinfonica...Estos legados divinos de los GENIOS del Arte Musical, enaltecen al genero humano en nuestro basto universo, haciendo de nosotros como los LEGITIMOS lideres del Universo. Saludos de Cusco-Peru.
This 6th Symphony of Beethoven is my best pastoral collection . It has a ecstatic effect on me
avec Ariane qui dirige , un vrai bonheur !!!!
Such a beautiful rendition of Beethoven's 6th and so refreshing to see a woman conducting a great orchestra.
Kudos to all the musicians at the HR Symphony and to Ariane Matiakh❤
This is so, so, so, so good! So good! SO GOOD! Everything about it is so exactly as it should be. All the magic is there. Wow. Holy wow.
love the allegretto [33:00] - pure Beethoven, always gets me goosebumps. damn.. when the french horns come in - so good!!
I’ve been playing Beethoven’s klavir for over 50 years. I cannot get tired of his music, though I have traveled my life with all modern music as jazz, rock, rap, synth, etc. Listening to the 6th, one can surely proclaim that even Impressionism in music starts with Beethoven’s works. Jazz? Listen to his last klavir Sonata’s second part. Syncopation? It is all of his music. To mention a few things, he developed in World’s music. When I die, I will surely miss only one thing - Beethoven’s music.
Very beginning the first motive is so beautiful , juicy articulation and natural tempo. They say that Beethoven said " Tempo is Music"(Music is Tempo) The first motive is veryveryvery nice throughout first movement, especially the last bar is so so sooooo beautiful.
Believe me, I had goosebumps all over me and a shiver ran down my spine while listening to this. I felt this music, what it meant to say. Beethoven at his best! A wonderful Performance!!! Kudos!!
Brava Maestra. Just splendid, splendid.grazie
Ariane Matiakh -- tremendous Pastorale. Already one of my favorites, and I'm just into the first movement. Clear lines, beautiful phrasing and articulation. Sounds like a chamber-sized ensemble.
The listener gave applause just after the end of the first movement. I was surprised at that because I had the same feeling as them.
