Beethoven's '' Pastoral Symphony '' is the highest level of a masterpiece of symphonic music. It leaves the listener in ecstatic mood.

[@lerkkweed]

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."

[@davidkim6183]

Thank you for your story.

[@dmeachy]

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. We couldn't believe what we were listening to and would make comments like, "did you hear that? Wow!" In fact, I would declare that all music has its basis in classical musical theory.

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.

[@RichardFeinman-yf7lx]

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.

[@sylviaelenamunoz2572]

Maravillosa Obra y ejecución e interpretación!! Perfecta ☺️!!! Qué dirección y Sinfónica!!! Preciosa!!! 😂❤❤

[@willyhwang1059]

i feel that beethoven mustered all the peace and beauty he had in his heart and poured into this symphony, despite his tumultuous life

[@theohedron9599]

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.

[@Jalapenoitis]

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.

[@brandonharbeke8326]

Unsung hero. i think the engineer did great job especiallly bringing out the woodwinds.

[@user-hd2tc9ze5i]

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.

[@user-ys1sx2kw2c]

I hope female conductors working all over the world can gain more recognition and validation for their amazing talents. This performance is just one of many examples that prove female conductors are strong enough to revolutionize yet another male dominated industry.

She is a delight to o lissen... I think this performance is wonderful!

[@Pedsonc01]

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!

[@ryohagitani2601]

I totally agree with you. It is very meaningful that the conductor is a woman.

[@xxxjet]

First time hearing Matiakh conducting. The sound she brings out of this orchestra! It's such a revealing experiment to hear the same orchestra reaching higher level under different conductors. Her Don Juan and Mozart are superb too. Will certainly be following her career closely from now.

[@wideskies]

Ariane is certainly a blessing in the field of orchestral direction and she takes such obvious delight in encouraging her fellow musicians to give everything they have towards creating her vision of how this sublime symphony should sound.

ich habe dieses musikalische meisterwerk von allen orchestern und "meistern" am dirigentenstab gehört.aber ich muss sagen,dass ich es noch nie so nuanciert,klar und strahlend gehört habe wie mit dieser Dame am Dirigentenstab.es war ein wahrer genuss.ich habe einige melodiebögen von einigen instrumenten das erste mal richtig wahrgenommen.bei frau matiakh hört man ,dass eine sinfonie ein zusammenspiel von vielen einzelnen stimmen ist.ich bin begeistert.

Geht mir genau so. Die bisher beste Aufnahme, fand ich, ist die vom selben Orchester, mit dem wunderbar die Musiker zum Tanzen bringenden Andres Orozco-Estrada.
