impressive performance

Nimrod, especially Barenboim's rendition, is a blanket that wraps you in comfort at a time of sorrow and loss. Thank you Maestro Barenboim!

I struggle with life. I worry about everything and have recently fallen to addiction. To say I’m ashamed of me would be an understatement. When I’m at my lowest, when I feel like there’s no hope for me, I listen to this stunning piece of musics I think of my grandparents, the war struggle and it smoothes me. I cry, I reminisce, I fight another day. This piece is literally saving me. Love to you all.

Barry Douglas rocks !!!! ❤️🥰❤️🤗

I am a Brit and so is my wife, both born in the Black Country where our modern world began. We have lived in the USA FOR OVER 50 years and it has changed not necessarily for the better. My son was also born in England but my daughter is the only foreigner born in Cook County IL, just joking. We are all still staunchly British and are as close to our families in England as if we had never left. Music like this brings tears to our eyes and we sing it at the tops of our voices. When the Queen died, we learned it first from our 17 years old granddaughter who called us from school where, she said everything was at a standstill and everyone was watching TV. I found my wife and told her, we hugged and cried.

Agatha Christie chose this music for het funeral.

I m here to honour the memory of Ken Gillespie a year on from reading about him he is not forgotten Alan ,.i dont know you but your story touched me

The first one and half minutes is just...wow...wow😮😮😮

I just watched this, Cannonball Run II, and Once Upon a Time in the West.

È una delle più belle interpretazioni. Bellissima energia e forza espressiva in un brano infinito… Grazie

Double Basses at 9:10

クライマックスの和声がとても音楽的に聞こえた

An inexpressible delight. I believe it is one of the greatest masterpieces of music ever written. It soars with beautiful pathos and floods the heart and mind with thoughts of good and majesty.

Schumann...such a genius.

Pourquoi je ne peux jamais m'empêcher de pleurer quand j'entends ce Nimrod d'Elgar. J'ai eu la chance de le jouer une fois en orchestre ; je devais me maîtriser pour ne pas fondre en larmes.

8.5/10 session strokes 1-3 warming up during the string parts strokes 4-10 really starting to get into the groove strokes 11-20 almost there stroke 21 bust. dammit gene

❤️❤️❤️❤️

For wars we lost so many even now ❤0

The nightmare of every pianists

At this point I would just play any other piece. 😅

No cellist better…

Had the wonderful privilege of hearing him in recital in New Zealand many years ago, and also reviewing the concert. I recall a line I wrote " He stepped into the circle of greatness )

不是算时间的么 他可以演奏其他曲子

This was the last music played each day by the station radio at RAF Muharraq, Bahrain. Bedtime

请问这是哪一次比赛？他叫什么名字？

Farrah was smokin!

Wonderful comments by bglidden1962 about playing the symbols to this piece. I would like to inquire about what type of cymbals did he play, were they K Zildjain . ?And what was his experience with them.

Extraordinary music making

My son and I love Elgar's Nimrod.

Nothing new! It's a horrifying business and I've been in a for a long time!!!

Co dodac ?

They don't write 'em like that anymore. Elgar, Nimrod and Barenboim, doesn't get any better than this.

We are the British, we don't want diluting with outsiders affecting our Britishness and if someone disagrees I guess you're not from these islands so go home.

My wife and I went to Andre Reir concerts in Buffalo September 2018 and Toronto September 2024. We were thrilled both times, in Toronto we had floor seats and waltzed to the Blue Danube. Well my wife waltzed...I stumbled....😁😁😁🤗😊

GREAT

When this was played in that top gear episode showing british patriotism, it gave me goosebumps

Great BORIS!

The thing is- unless you regularly perform you are going to be mega nervous and stuff like this will happen where you mind completely blanks-something you'd done right 1000 times before becomes impossible due to nerves hijacking your body. Competitions are even worse, because then there are real stakes on the line

The best piece of music ever composed by an Englishman. Played at my Dads funeral 8 years ago today and still brings me to tears every time I hear it.

He alwavs pull up a trick on us. Yes that trick is to attract his audience with the first note he extract from his cello. What a genius!

All these stories are heartbreaking. Theres so much pain in the world, and music like this can ease it, if only just for a minute or two. ❤ to anyone going through it right now.

B Flat Minor obe is beauitful… he said it described the way it feels to be alone

I don't care how hard-boiled you are, that is the most 1:40 1:41 evocative piece of music ever. Very moving, timeless and absolutely beautiful.

😢

I don't know why I needed to hear this piece right now: it just came to mind as I've worked late into the early morning. This piece of music of music an Mahler's Adagietto from his 5th Symphony are both achingly beautiful. This clip is a wonderful rendition of "Nimrod." Thank you for posting.❤

RIP to all the fallen hero’s

Still listening to this on 11 November 2024.

Never heard it before but it reacties out to my soul
