Debussy - La Mer (Abbado)

[@mirandac8712]

Devastating loss. My favorite conductor. The nicest, the most generous, the widest repertoire, the most modest. The first Italian for Berlin; the reluctant celebrity. Debussy would have loved this performance. 

[@raphaelmassarelli7848]

A magnificent conductor, a splendid orchestra. Grazie Maestro, dormi in pace.

My goodness this is the most beautiful interpretation of this piece i've ever heard, i love how maestro Abbado brought out the flutes at 9:17, and how he kind of sped up that crescendo at 9:20. And i absolutely love how the horns seamlessly crescendo in and out of the texture at 9:20 and 9:25. I've never heard that section being played like that before and it's absolutely beautifully executed. The music world misses you Mr. Abbado.

Wonderful, wonderful! At 15:00, orchestra loving it, conductor loving it, you know the audience is loving it...a joyous time was had by all. 😁 Thank you, Debussy!♥️

What a glorious performance. Abbado lets the orchestra sing; not getting hung up with controlling each and every nuance.

2004 Carlos Kleiber death 2014 Claudio Abbado death Une perte immense. Personne n'est irremplaçable, dit on, mais il y a cependant des personnes particulièrement difficiles à remplacer. Ciao Maestro !

sublime

22:27~ The orchestra sounded like how the waves look in the movie "Dune" on planet Caladan. 🥰

[@anamariaamestica]

Ciao Maestro! ♡

[@frankstein9982]

the oboist is Bart Schneemann, of the Dutch Wind Ensemble (and formerly the Rotterdam Philharmonic).

[@WHITECK9]

Isn't it Albrecht Mayer? with Yoshii-Smith playing second?

[@JohnSmith-mo2st]

thank you

[@shin-i-chikozima]

Debussy’s La Mer is well suited to Turner’s seascape paintings

[@Discovery_and_Change]

1:25 begins |

[@charlescoleman5509]

9:10 why is there no crescendo? It's not what Debussy wrote! I know Abbado wants the woodwinds to stick out. But to keep everyone else soft in order to do that just saps the energy out of that magical passage.

[@olivierdrouin2701]

Cette remarque aurait dû être commentée 100 fois !!😮

[@TheMrLyingtruth]

Is that Natalia gutman leading the cellos?

[@WHITECK9]

Where's the trumpet at 24:27?

[@jin12345678]

missed entrance

[@WHITECK9]

Is that Sabine Meyer?

[@travist1566]

Where’s the gong????

[@WaterFlame957]

Does anyone know who that young cellist is at 20:56?

[@jimp4170]

So I guess only the conductor is important enough to be acknowledged? The orchestra doesn't matter?

[@pearspeedruns]

Jim P Do you know which orchestra this is?

[@jimp4170]

@@pearspeedruns The video says it's Lucerne Festival, but it should be acknowledged by the uploader. There are centuries of training and hard work on that stage and it's not right to ignore that.
