My favourite symphony. Every time I listen to it I feel as though I have just thrown my shoulders back and stepped into Bruckners world. During lockdown listening to this performance I felt that I did not have to worry about travel restrictions. This music takes me to places that no airline can reach. Boulez brings clarity and insight to passages that other conductors muddle through. Though, like some people have said in these comments, I too love performances by many great conductors.

Anton Bruckner, che ha suonato per molti anni l'organo che si vede sullo sfondo, è stato sepolto, nel 1896, proprio sotto il pavimento dell'ingresso. Quando sono entrato, non mi sono accolto del grande nome, BRUCKNER, scolpito sul marmo, sotto i miei piedi, e cercavo nella chiesa la sua tomba. °°°°°° Questi concerti eseguiti a pochi metri dalla sua salma, sono molto evocativi e commoventi. Anche lui ascolta le sue sinfonie meravigliose.

You are the first person I've come across who has commented on the ridiculous practice of getting orchestra musicians, usually in the string section, to look at each other and smile on cue when the camera is on them. It's utterly cringe-worthy and embarrassing, and I can't understand why the musicians agree to do it. Is it written into their contracts? How and why did this irritating nonsense become a thing? All I can say is , STOP IT!!!!
@darthphantom273 Жыл бұрын
@@BrainiacFingers It's called "Performance isn't just the music you play". It is pretty unfortunate. Vocalists, for example, need to smile the the crowd while they're singing. We could make the same point about the black outfits we're forced to wear. Why wear them? Sure they hide our movements. But why do the female vocalists wear colorful dresses while the string section wears full black? It is but a small piece that fits into performance, nothing else. It sucks that we have to deal with stuff like that but it's the norm.
@BrainiacFingers Жыл бұрын
@@darthphantom273 I would hazzard a guess that most people who listen to orchestral music and attended concerts don't care whether or not the violin players in the front row of the string section are smiling at each other. It's distracting and stupid. The orchestra is a unit which is the sum of its individual parts.The musicians focus on the conductor not on each other. And its not a good idea to have random members smiling inanely during , say, the last movement of Mahler's 9th. The important thing to note about this dumb practice is that it was quite obviously instigated by TV companies who need stuff to be happening visually all the time, so when that little red light goes on you'd better do something for the camera. I imagine the producers and directors of these broadcasts would love it if the musicians waved at the camera or stuck their tongues out just like at a sporting event. It is also really obvious that the musicians are embarrassed by it. It has nothing to do with "performance" and everything to do with TV producers wanting to turn all orchestral broadcasts into the Andre Rieu show.

The VPO chose to play wonderfully expressively that's their choice and it should be respected. I wish there were more recordings of Boulez conducting Bruckner. He conducted symphonies 5 7 and 9. He had a wonderful grasp of structure. Perhaps it takes him back to his childhood Catholic upbringing. It is a pity Brian Large points the camera away from the performance at the beginning and during the applause which is soon cut. Large shows poor judgment here. Karl Bohm was another non touchy feely conductor that the VPO chose to play expressively for. He also did Bruckner 8 superbly.

It took a bit too long for the camera to reach conductor and orchestra. What's the use of such filmographic ambitions? I could live without the mannerisms of the director.

I have two problems with this wonderful performance: the all-boys band and Bruckner.

I noticed that also. 1996 and no women in the orchestra?

Yea, i always wondered that, maybe because its one of the first symphonies i heard by Bruckner, this and the 7th.
