Brahms Piano concerto N° 2 (Barenboim - Celibidache)

[@dennispearson871]

I Have Heard This Concerto all of my Life , But Never Like This !! This Performance Was A REVELATION of This Great Concerto !! Brahms , Celibidache , Barenboim, a match made in Heaven !!!....

[@dubbelhenke854]

Celibidache is a conductor for those who really and truly love classical music. Immortal maestro!

[@raoultak]

This was a monumental event. Thank you Brahms, Barenboim and Celibidache.

[@warrenmalach5528]

I first encountered Celibidache by way of his Bruckner performances, but I am glad to see that he does a wonderful job with Brahms as well. This is my absolute favorite piano concerto.

[@1961juanmiguel]

Es increíble el talento y la capacidad de Barenboim, uno de los músicos más geniales de los últimos 50 años. Y junto al gran Celibidache, se hace aún más gigante.

[@Pudjo007]

The best Brahms Piano Concerto,nice streaming,wonderful Daniel Barenboim (pianist) and all music team.

[@samye8571]

Agree. Thanks.

[@ankhpom9296]

Wow, this pianist IS a virtuoso! Thank you for the upload.

[@herrbrahms]

I really enjoy this performance because Barenboim works for every note, and he makes every note count. Giant impact. Fantastic drama. Brahms almost never just falls under your hands as does music from other composers. He wanted what he wanted, and if that makes the music inconvenient to play, tough. The first movement of this piece is ten feet tall, and Barenboim delivers.

[@johnrapp8873]

This is the most awesome and beautiful performance of this concerto in many years.Possibly the best ever!! Thank you so much..Love you all..John Rapp

[@robycheff]

My favourite piano concerto in an amazing performance by Daniel Baremboim and the Münchner Philharmoniker conducted by the great Sergiu Celibidache.

[@neilhazell5908]

I was pleasantly surprised that (notwithstanding some earlier comments) this was not the foot-dragging performance I was expecting from S.C., but a beautifully paced, balanced, and articulate one which had real soul. Nice to see smiles at the end of II: they knew they had pulled it off.

[@sandatucson]

I am so grateful for having this truly immortal performance. Too bad today's young conductors don't feel the need to learn from the old masters. Magnificent performance. THANK YOU!

[@violinlife]

Thank you so much for sharing this precious performance by Celibidache and Barenboim. Became my favorite Brahms Piano Concerto No. 2 interpretations.

[@dliwevad]

This is really Barenboim's wheelhouse. He really does seem to nail Brahms and Beethoven concertos. Johannes and Ludwig would approve.

[@SaloniS]

Bach doesn't even have any piano concertos..

[@raoultak]

WOW...this is a master piece of music. And Barenboim - Celibidache are a perfect couple. Never heard better......

[@ALLARDTAAMS]

Polline and Abbado is great too!

[@riccardop28]

I totally agree. This performance is magisterial. Brahms' wistfulness and romantic nostalgia is there together with perfectly clear fraseggio. Bravo maestro Barenboim. Celibidache is one of the unsung heroes of conducting in the past century.

[@alfredoechevarrieta7512]

Y los músicos de la orquesta

[@salvadormorenoperalta2418]

Celibidache, con su tempo siempre un poco más demorado que los demás directores, permite disfrutar la música hasta lo más profundo de su esencia. Para ello hay que tener su dominio, su sensibilidad y un instrumento tan perfecto como la Filarmónica de Munich. Y Barenboim es un magnífico cómplice. Dos genios.

[@jnsurg947]

Brahms' no.2 concerto is said to be one of the most difficult piano pieces.First performance was in Nov.9,1881. Brahms himself played the piano with great success. Later, Hans von Bülow conducted. Barenboim and Celibidache are philosopher of music.

[@goscott444]

_That trill @ __48:17__!_ 😁

[@mariposamarshall9773]

Played with such joy and intense depth; a profound understanding of this music. A very elegant style

[@embenadorfinearts]

Celibidache conducts the orchestra with such an impulse and with such an intelligent musical phrasing that it transcends music of Brahms. Celibidache takes literally Barenboim in a piano “fougue”. The force and the tempi in this concerto are remarkable and give the “impression” to follow the music like the brush stokes of a painter. Expression, tensions and expressionistic cumulating points, this concert has it all. Thank you for posting this amazing document. “La musique n'est pas de nature statique ; elle n'existe pas comme un état d'être défini. Elle est toujours un devenir, sans jamais accéder à une forme d'existence.” S. Celibidache

[@embenadorfinearts]

***** Thank you for your nice comment-response. Best regards.

[@embenadorfinearts]

Dear Olli: thank you for your comments which are diligently interesting and challenging. Usually, I do not like to make connections between visual arts and music with some rare exceptions (Debussy, Stravinsky & few others), Celibidache... The main difference between the two disciplines are: music is interpretation after something that has been written and does not exist without musicians. Painting is perhaps a "purest" creative process since it does not include interpretation or a re-creative process. But most important are the “needs” which apply in all sort of creations defined by Husserl. I hope you do not mind this comment. . Thank you again for your response..

[@minhquang57]

Recorded in 1991, such a precious performance was preserved and uploaded! Thank you Todo Gardel!

[@demalexandru]

Il grande Sergiu Celibidache, il Romeno che ha superato se stesso e ha trionfato nella musica!

[@McGigi666]

+demalexandru e atat de jenant, stimate domn, sa te-arunci cu genul asta de comentarii de lumea a 3-a. care ar fi relevanta faptului ca celibidache a fost roman? geniul e universal, nu are nationalitate.

[@jonathancraun9157]

Brahms: I need to start paying more attention to his music. This is beautiful.

[@LAMIRAL45]

Awesome Daniel Barenboim ! He is citizen of the World ! 4 nationalities !!! Born in 1942 in Argentina, he is one of the most famous pianist & conductor in world. He is Argentinian and Israeli in first (he is of Russian Jewish descent) ; in 2002 he obtained Spanish nationality ! And since 2008 he is carrying a Palestinian passport !... His first wife was the great British violoncellist Jacqueline Du Pré. Actually he is the conductor of the ' Scala de Milano'. ( 2011 to 2016)

J'aime le talent de cet homme et son ouverture d'esprit. La Musique rassemble. Merci LAMIRAL45

[@klaraniete8602]

Ich hab noch nie eine so emotionale und mitreißende Version von Brahms Klavierkonzert gehört.

[@lucashaines3846]

This work was no mistake! Brahms is a musical genius!

[@mmbmbmbmb]

One great Composer, two Maestros and a very good Orchestra ~ can only result in superb listening pleasure :o) Thanks MEZZO and TodoGardel!

[@InvestingForTomorrow24]

An eternal inspiration. May the planet survive and provide ears to hear these monumental phrases from the work of pure genius.

[@igormaxwel6093]

Sem dúvida, uma das 5 melhores performances desse belíssimo concerto de Sir J. Brahms!

[@sergioenriquesanchezibanez337]

Mi opinión personal, la mejor interpretación del Concierto Nº 2 que he escuchado. Todas la obras de Brams FANTÁSTICAS!!!!

[@bernalum]

+Sergio Enrique Sanchez Ibañez eu, simplesmente, AMO Brahms... e, sim, esta éuma das melhores gravações dele....

[@dopier12]

These two priceless seconds from 38:28-38:30 I think explain it all! It started at 38:21, but the expression on the conductor's face at those two minutes gives it all away. Celestial!

[@uelrington9270]

I am listening,watching this concert with using new Samsung ear phone , I tell you sounds are really spectacular and it's like they play this concerto in front of you !! Please enjoy with it !!!

[@howardchasnoff208]

Great performance. Wonderful orchestral sounds. Especially the second movement. Great writing for horn by Brahms. I hope youtube continues to provide all this music. I'll gladly pay for it.

[@peterhoff1319]

Every time I see/hear Berenboim, I can't help thinking about the enormous gap in time since he lost Jackie. How promising her career was; how long and fulfilling his has been.

[@tinselPixie]

I particularly love the smile shared between the pianist, cellist and conductor at the end of the third movement....great!

[@RamVernon]

Celli-Barenboim-Brahms mix; what a divine concerto for keeps!

[@warnerhutchison9899]

Brahms ranks among the world's greatest composers for his mastery of orchestration and form. I am a composer who has been awed by the wide range emotions in his works ranging from thunderous climaxes to quiet contemplation.

[@TheArtsBookstoregr]

One of the best music ever written/played!!

[@kathydayphd]

I thought Richter "owned" the Brahms 2nd until I heard Barenboim's rendition. It might lack a bit of Richter's amazing technical skill, but it makes up for it in the lovely interpretation which he sustains throughout this long and varied work. The connection between the pianist and the orchestra is never compromised here. It is not a soloist and an orchestra, but one continuous river of music, a delight from start to finish!

[@lBJamiel]

In what way does he lack technical skill? Not apparent to me.

[@TheJamesalden]

So wonderful, but then...it's Brahms...Thank You!...

[@teatropereyra1]

Strait from heaven.. tears of gratefulness!

[@keyboarddancers]

This one by far! I believe there were many years between their respective compositions. This has everything: exquisite calm and tranquillity, subtle delicacy, melodic accessibility, towering virtuosity, intellectual maturity, power and grandiloquence, narrative coherence and it’s hewn from bedrock of unimpeachable pedigree. This is my favourite piece of orchestral music. (Can you tell?)

[@sergixtepec1]

Compositor, pianista, orquesta, que hermoso. Pero que interpretación la que logra Celibadice. Inolvidable.

[@mjaxdes]

Absolute Madness!! Never get tired of hearing this complex - yet easy to understand work of art!

[@paulm3965]

Daniel Barenboim at his best, lovely Brahms concerto with Sergiu Celibidache conducting. with the München Philharmoniker, perfect.

[@syourke3]

At 54 minutes, this must be one of the longest concertos of all time. It’s magnificent.

[@thomasmaze9156]

No, the first Brahms' piano concerto is a bit longer than this one. And the longest piano concerto lasts more or less than 70 minutes. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZmzq6ioeb-tkJY

[@tinselPixie]

It brings tears to my eyes every time I hear such beautiful stirring music. Superb performance! And believe me underneath that smart tuxedo he is sweat soaked, this is incredibly hard work and very draining. (Years ago I saw maestro Leonard Bernstein in concert and after 7 curtain calls they were swaying with fatigue. What a night.) As for the orchestra....all these people coming together for the love of music, who says humans can't work together for good?.

[@shin-i-chikozima]

Barenboim,s performance is incomparable . This song is unrelated to the forgetting of the years . It continues to impress our hearts beyond the times . From Tokyo in Japan .

[@Kobzar3374]

By the way, it has been just by chance that I am listening to this just a day after the 100th anniversary of maestro Celebidache. R. I. P. and God bless him.

[@tekraynak]

I always find myself rooting for Barenboim in whatever he tries to do. His playing is always grounded in excellent style and rhythm, and goes a little out of bounds in terms of expression and tone, which can't really be held against him in this great literature. Bravo!

[@Romeowasbleeding1]

One of the greatest blessings of my childhood was Brahms. This piece has been with me from my birth.

[@jjustie75]

Magnificent at times lush. Can leave you breathless at times

Diz o "site" da JP que ele é transmitido em rede nacional. Chama-se "Os pingos nos is". Estou tentando verificar se ele é também transmitido para o Rio de Janeiro e em qual faixa. Vale a pena ouvir para ficar informado de tudo, tudo mesmo o que está se passando nesse governo agonizante do PT e para dar umas boas risadas também. Assim que eu descobrir algo, eu informo você. Beijo!

[@talmashraky]

i saw it again and again, and Daniel never got tired ! amazing performance !!!

[@taihiong]

Brahms' orchestration is such a master piece that I don't think Barenboim dares to conduct while playing piano, as what he's done to many other concertos.

[@marcelouz1]

Extraordinary performance, Celibedache in his perfect mature conduction and Barenboim in his sumit of piano interpretation , both of them the perfectc combination .In such a tempo anyone can appreciate all the Orchestra interpretation and the solo and fabuolus chords of the piano and the geniality of BRAHMS.Thanks for posting this wonderfull piano concert mastepiece.

[@NINOABSNABSN]

I saw this concert for the first time in 1997 on K7 tape. I didn't know Brahms. The first audition was passionate. I consider it the most intense reading of the work.

[@pilarbaneres8388]

Que naravillosa interpretacion! Me encanta oir la orquesta y insuperable Barenboim

[@nanvonoffenbach]

Qué emoción escuchar a un compatriota y leer todos los comentarios positivos. El segundo movimiento es precioso!!

[@jksjksjks203]

Barenboim captures all the subtle beauty and radiance of the first movement, shimmering...thoughtful...exquisite musicality and poetic beauty. What a gifted pianist! He reminds me of Rubenstein's Rachmaninov: no excess...just lustrous, vibrant music to relish.

[@tzvikastein8827]

[@ancamg]

This was so beautiful, WOW! What a treat! Celibidache, Barenboim and Brams...epic

[@marcelfermer5369]

Unul din marii noștri dirijori și un om de o căldură sufletească pe măsura staturii sale muzicale (după cum spun cei care l-au cunoscut și au lucrat cu el). Venirile d-sale la București de după 1990 și spectacolele date la Ateneu au fost unul din lucrurile extraordinare și minunate care s-au intâmplat in anii aceia cu atât de multe speranțe și cu atât de puține realizări ulterioare.

[@saagua1953]

The 3rd movement is some of Brahms finest music. Meltingly beautiful.

[@reidbounsall9098]

An incredible performance. Bravo!!

[@Dave-ti2ue]

When you first see the thumbnail, I wasn't sure if he was conducting or playing. I'm glad he played it. Stupendous work!

Obra de gran belleza, hace que se recree el alma a través de los sentidos, en un viaje, por paisajes naturales y una brisa calma. El concierto para piano n.º 2 en si bemol mayor, Op. 83, de Johannes Brahms se separa en alrededor de veinte años de su Primer concierto para piano. Brahms inició su composición en 1878 y la completó sólo tres años más tarde, en 1881, en Pressbaum, en las cercanías de Viena. Es considerado por muchos pianistas y entendidos como una de las piezas de mayor dificultad técnica dentro de la literatura pianística universal. A diferencia del primer concierto para piano, éste cuenta con cuatro movimientos: Allegro non troppo, Allegro appassionato, Andante y Allegretto grazioso Brahms representa el racionalismo, la antítesis del romanticismo wagneriano. Para Brahms el desarrollo musical era la consecuencia del trabajo casi matemático en los intervalos. Las obras de Brahms corresponden a procedimientos racionales. Es frecuente que la música Brahms se asocie con emociones como la melancolía o la nostalgia, y también se ha dicho que su música tiene un carácter otoñal. Todo ello se ha explicado tanto por su carácter como por el hecho de que pertenezca a la última etapa del Romanticismo. ,El estilo pianístico de Brahms es muy característico, con un uso generalizado de toda la amplitud del teclado y una utilización muy expresiva de las notas graves. Es frecuente que la melodía se encuentre en voces medias, y suelen encontrarse en algunas obras esquemas rítmicos distintos para cada mano, lo que da lugar a superposiciones muy originales.

[@ralphberney7768]

For all the earnestness, the furrowed brow of concentration, the exaggerated flourishes of hands leaving the keyboard- not least the reputation of so formidable and accomplished a musician, and the pressure that brings- while applauding moments of beautifully interpreted and delivered play, and some not, there is an overriding sense of tension, unease, an inability to relax, and you often feel it in his fingers, hard on the keys, as though he's being driven to some goal he is not comfortable with or sure about, an anxiety about meeting expectation perhaps, when he of all should not have to.

[@ericsignor1088]

Tout est clarté, autant dans le jeu pianistique de Barenboim que dans la direction de l'immense Celibidache. c'est une des plus grandes version de ce grand oeuvre de Brahms. Chef-d'oeuvre d'ouverture sur la magie du monde.

[@reubenlahav6327]

[@harmonieautog]

An outstanding performance by the orchestra, I find the strings to be particularly lush, a true tribute to Celibidache who built this orchestra. Baremboim here is at his best and it is at a point in his life where he was particularly sensitive to what he was performing.
