According to some music critics, this is the greatest symphony ever written.

He certainly did not let me down with this wonderful performance. Thank you, Andrés Orozco-Estrada, for this wonderful performance.

[@DvdAvins]

The 3rd is considered special because it showed how much more was possible than had come before. It is probably more common to say it is the most important symphony than to say it is the best, but it is indeed great and the others paths that the 3rd introduced.

I think this performance was unnecessarily subdued. Orchestra is top-notch but I am afraid the rendition does not live up to the image of the revolution where many bloody heads were rolling.

[@paulescudero9973]

@@EnginAtik its subjective, but I think this was one of the compositions that Beethoven produced that helped move classical music into the romantic period.

Esse primeiro movimento muito me lembra o "Tour de Force" da 5ª Sinfonia em Dó Menor. Essa é a Sinfonia que Beethoven dedicou a Napoleão Bonaparte, mas quando soube que ele auto se havia coroado imperador ficou furioso e riscou a dedicatória de tal modo que rasgou a partitura original. É, sem dúvida, uma Sinfonia esplendorosa! A regência do maestro Andrés Orozco está sublime, inflamada de paixão e concentração absoluta à frente da orquestra, cujos músicos, por sinal, muito bem vestidos se mostaram dedicados a uma interpretação uníssona e à altura do gênio de Beethoven! À parte a apresentação da orquestra, um detalhe técnico me chamou a atenção: as tomadas de câmera foram perfeitas onde todos os músicos e instrumentos tiveram a sua relevância por igual, em ângulos onde toda a excelência da orquestra e sua magistral apresentação se fez presente.

My GOD. The minute-long passage from 21:30 - 22:40 delivers the most mind-blowingly euphoric high you’ll ever get from music. This stuff oughta be illegal.

[@kerencanelo8580]

Not the most, because music is so much than this and in Beethoven himself it is found more moments like this. And in other composers there are a lot of moments like this and better.

[@JJJRRRJJJ]

@@kerencanelo8580 I would agree. It was a bit of hyperbole, but it’s a great passage that gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. Off the top of my head, I’d say the final couple minutes of Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony are the most exhilarating and emotionally intense moments of any music I’ve ever heard. 8th is great too.

It sounds very enthusiastic, so heroic, beautiful, and at the same time very gentle.

[@PointyTailofSatan]

A poll of modern composers, conductors, and concert artists ranked the Eroica as the greatest of all symphonies ever written.

[@lilytoledog68]

Totalmente de acuerdo, pero pienso que LVB fue el más grande compositor. De verdad que a mis 72 aun sigo "enamorada" de la música, especialmente de este gran genio de la música. Conforme pasa el tiempo cada vez que escucho cualquiera de sus composiciones 😢 lloro de emoción..❤❤❤❤

[@PointyTailofSatan]

@@lilytoledog68 The greatest symphonic composer for sure. But Bach would have to be #1 overall.

What a thrilling and enthusiastic director. Quite wonderful

[@janetkenny1974]

I am very impressed by this conductor. I haven't experienced his work before. His choice of tempi and the way he respects the architecture of the symphony are superb.

Andrés Orozco Estrada "maravillosa interpretacion" Muchas gracias. ❤

[@AAilovemusic]

Wonderful interpretation by Andrés Orozco Estrada!

[@hiramroman9093]

Con mucho respeto y humildad digo esto: casi el cien por ciento de las personas que hacen comentarios sobre la interpretacion de la Musica de el Señor Beethoven puedo observar y decir que, ni conocen a Beethoven y menos su Musica. Comentarios vasios, superfluos, que no dicen nada. Cuando uno habla, comenta u opina sobre cualquier materia debe de tener conocimiento y cierto dominio sobre esta. Pero, como decía mi abuelita: "La ignorancia es atrevida"

Wow in my lifetime I've heard several versions of this sublime symphony.I place this second only to that of the great Karajan.The sincerity and dedication of the director and every team member shine through.The March Funebre literally gave me goosebumps.Bravo.Can't wait to hear more of this great orchestra.

[@foveauxbear]

Karajan??? you must be joking, the MOST ghastly, self-indulgent-syrup-laden recordings ever made, horrid.

[@tserkoslavjanskij]

@@foveauxbear Thank you. It's good that those who disagree with remarks made here post their opinions. I've never understood the adulation Mr Karajan enjoys. I grew up with concerts and recordings by Fritz Reiner and George Szell and still find their recordings more interesting and rewarding than those by Mr Karajan. Still, we're dealing with taste here, and It's not easy convince people that they have tin ears.

[@RogerVerhiest]

@@tserkoslavjanskij Yes : the performance of Beethoven's music by Karajan is great, but it is no "pure Beethoven" it is more "Beethoven by Karajan". It is a phenomen that occurs with many great performers (I think of Glenn Gould, Lang Lang ,Pavarotti and many others ) who take fabulous compositions and turn them into... something else...

[@AdrianGonzalez-so5gz]

This performance has left me speechless! Every movement and musical nuance was carefully planned and executed. The orchestra finds the soul of this piece and brings it to light. From start to finish it was a joy to watch this performance. Bravo tutti!
