Beethoven: Symphony No. 5 "Fate Symphony" | Christian Thielemann & Vienna Philharmonic

[@JamesWilliams-USANo.1]

I think it's really GREAT that KZbin interrupts the music with commercials instead of showing them all at the beginning or not at all.

[@richardgiem6404]

In my humble opinion, one of the greatest pieces of music

[@liauchungren848]

Yes it is, it is the Genesis of all great Symphonies that came afterwards

[@c08lam]

@@liauchungren848 No it is not.

Conductors always seem to be in a rush to get this symphony started. This one doesn't even wait for the applause to end.

[@kathrink8421]

Wunderschön diese Musik. Das ist Balsam für die Seele. Und es ist wahre Kunst. Wundervoll! ❤❤❤ Herzensgrüße aus Norddeutschland

[@love7080s]

Thielemann' s quickly start is occurring a good orchestral response.

[@770il4]

That`s right

[@javiermarting]

Probably the best 5th I’ve heard in many, many years… much in the Furt/Kna style. Awesome.

[@DWClassicalMusic]

Glad to hear this! Thanks for watching 😊

[@ponchogom9339]

What is Furt/Kna style?

[@javiermarting]

@@ponchogom9339 Well, I refer to Wilhelm Furtwängler and Hans Knappertsbusch. Both conductors were the epitome of subjective conducting in the first half of the XX century., mainly in the core symphonic germanic repertoire. Here Christian Thielemann delivers a very subjective rendition, one that Furt and Kna would have been very proud of.

[@bapcha]

Carlos Kleiber's is brilliant too!

[@caltamino]

⁠@@bapchaIndeed. Carlos Kleiber’s 1974 legendary recording of this Symphony with the Vienna Philharmonic received unanimous acclaim from both critics and the public. It was a remarkable interpretation which launched Kleiber’s wonderful career as one of the greatest conductors of the century.

[@jemerlia]

The spirit of the 2nd movement's free fantasia eludes many; not so here in an interpretation worthy of Klemperer / Phiharmonia or Pletnev / RNO. Thank you for the opportunity to hear this wonderful performance.

BRAVO CHRISTIAN ! Génial et l'orchestre aussi ! ET la 5ème magnifique de Ludwig ! BEETHOVEN FOR EVER AND EVER ! Génie pour l'éternité ! des opus inoubliables! WUNDERBAR !

[@RomanGolubev_A]

I'm glad there are no extremes in his interpretation of the 1st movement and it still sounds interesting and pleasing to my ears.

[@JohannaA.5013]

This is the first Symphony that I’ve ever heard in my life. And it’s incredible that every time I hear it, a find a new passion. It never, never tires. You can call me a cliché person, but I really see beauty in Classical Music, even if I don’t understand it fully yet. And with Thielemann!? He is one of the best conductors that I have ever seen! Germans and Austrians with Beethoven, always an excellent combination!

What a great finale funeral march, outstandingly brilliant and influential. It is my favorite movement of the symphony and one of my absolute favorites of the early Romantic period up there with Schubert's unfinished.

[@JorgeRzezak]

Agree 100%. Beethoven with the 5th symphony finale invented the great finale so influential that even Bugs Bunny used it, and Schubert which his grandiose finale in his Große symphony was influenced by Beethoven.

[@davekwan2694]

There are people that do not listen to classical music make fun of the 4 notes of Beethoven Fifth. Sometimes it is quite offensive. Maybe they do not know what "Fate" is all about. Once "Fate" knocks on the door of those individuals, sooner or later, they will understand the 4 notes are serious stuff.. Only Beethoven can write "Fate" as a piece of music and share with the world. Thank you!!!

Baythoven for symphony, Verdi for opera, and Mozart for melody . However; speaking about symphony, Giuseppe Verdi did write a magnificent piece of symphony called: I vespri Siciliani, or the happy Sicilianins. Just a beautiful piece.

[@Lordran__]

It’s actually an overture (or sinfonia). Not a symphony in more than one movement like this

[@carlosinfante5223]

Beethoven was not born on this Earth. He is much more than a human being. Next!

It is said the Vienna Philharmonic has been a men's club only traditionally. I finally saw a lady violinist in the first violin section.

[@DWClassicalMusic]

It has been possible for women to become part of the Vienna Philharmonics since 1997. But you're right, the number of women is still very low 😔

[@timothyneumann6586]

I share not joy with listening to this Symphony. The Joy is with the 9th at long last. The means to the Joy are not found in this one. This man is unable to desire the one that men desire. The one that is desired by men of all nations is unable to be what this is. The Crucifixion would be appropriate for the 2nd as to person, but you need to approach it faithfully through the 3rd Person, but many wouldn't view that as a heroic deed. The 1st Symphony is the one who knows more than the 2nd and the 3rd. Captain Picard is tortured by the 4th, just because. The difference between Mendelsohn's Italian Symphony and the Reformation Symphony starts on October 31, 1517. On June 30, 1530, the Augsburg Confession was read to the Holy Roman Emperor Charles III, who was also King of France at the time. The German Electoral Princes and Dukes chose him. Nothing new to these poses.

No, this is NOT the "fate symphony", that would be P. I. Tchaikovsky's Symphony #4. Anyone with any musical knowledge would know that the symphony is based on 3 short notes and a longer note. That goes from the first notes all the way to the final 3 notes. Otherwise, I see/hear nothing wrong with the performance!

[@xandervk2371]

The 5th is certainly known under that name in Germany.

[@briandiltsmusic]

The opening motif is sometimes called the “fate motif”

[@a.o.424]

The opening motif has famously been described as "fate knocking on the door." It is not wrong to call Beethoven's 5th "the fate symphony."
