Beethoven: Symphony no. 6 in F major, op. 68 ("Pastoral"), Gardiner, ORR

[@christopherkeller7734]

The most beautiful Beethoven symphony

[@Quim1441]

This brings me peace

[@paullee9397]

I first heard this song in Music Appreciation 101 class in about 1987 while in college, then promptly forgot about it. Except I remembered the melody. Now 35 years later I was trying to find the name of the piece and it was driving me crazy! I finally heard it at the end of Soylent Green movie, of all places. What a masterpiece of music!

[@alishalileh]

This might just be the best rendition of this piece I have ever heard!

[@Pumpkin_dragonspice]

Such a beautiful piece definitely one of my favorites 😊

[@douglaswarns3086]

The tempo is a little faster than I am used to, but I enjoy the acoustic properties and lower pitch of period instruments.

[@matttondr9282]

Didn’t even need to read the description to hear the folk music influence. Great job, Beethoven!

[@fredericchopin4821]

Thank you for uploading once again! I absolutely adore your channel. I’ve explored so much music through the videos you have uploaded.

Soylent Green...Edward G. Robinson in the suicide chamber scene...Golden!

Finally!

Sublime!

Glad to see you back. You should upload Beethoven's 2nd!

Thanks! It's been up for a while. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaPJm4ubrq9-f5o

​@@Muzikay How come when you posted Mozart's Piano Concerti, you picked some of the most disturbing, wretched, and unfitting paintings that you could find, but when you post Beethoven symphonies, you pick some of the most relaxing, peaceful, and pastoral scenery??

[@simonkawasaki4229]

@@Muzikay It seems to be blocked!! I guess there’s nothing you can really do about it.

[@Muzikay]

@@DanielFahimi I try to match the painting with the music (and the historic peiod and style). Beethoven symphonies are an entriely different sound-world than Mozart's concerti.

[@Muzikay]

@@simonkawasaki4229 Apparently it's blocked by KZbin in the US and Canada, alas. :(

What is the name of the painting, and who was the artist?

[@maazzafar2822]

Why, John Constable, of course. The patron saint of English landscape painting.

[@musicalaborantus]

too fast for me. Thank you so much, I love Gardiner's music

[@barneyheebowitz6830]

and to think Beethoven was actually afro american? You learn something every day.

[@matteomagurno3068]

We’re not all that sure about that

[@ajmaltaujoo4277]

Beethoven potentially had black heritage, not African-American💀

[@RaHeadD10]

blackie or dew couldn't write something as marvellous as this..

[@MaxwellKaye]

I looked it up-Beethoven actually had Flemish ancestry from his father, and German ancestry from his mother! That being said, I don't in any way condone racist comments like the one before mine.

[@Arteshir]

Awful performance

[@amistium5938]

Nobody asked

[@raisinbrahms5872]

Why is such a big part of classical music culture about one-upping each other on which recordings we like. Just let people enjoy the recordings they enjoy. Music is supposed to be subjective and interpreted in different ways, I'd rather find recordings that are unique and I disagree with every once and a while than every recording sounding the same. Please keep your elitism out of here.

[@julieconnard4372]

@BotmonGhilitch, Actually, I think it's the best, most evocative rendition I've ever heard.

[@alishalileh]

The best rendition of this piece I have ever heard.
