Johann Strauss - Overture "Die Fledermaus" (Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, Zubin Mehta)

[@kme321]

Thank you Tom and Jerry for introducing me to this wonderful piece. I wouldn't have found out about this if I never watched the cartoon, this overture will forever have a special place in my heart.

[@Oceanbreeze-m7e]

Unless you're educated about good music. Nothing to do with Tom and Jerry. This is Johann Strauss, perfect music!!! Make your own music in America!!!

[@TrollMeister_]

You should thank T&J for the Hungarian Rhapsody No 2 too.

[@Oceanbreeze-m7e]

Typical American!! I know that song without watching Tom and Jerry!!!!

Want to hear a point quite opposite from this western guy? No hostility, just wanted to show a different perspective... So, it was in the mid-80s, in school. Moscow, USSR, school #15 (specialization: English from 2nd grade 2 classes a day (45 mins x 2) - we were 8 yo then, as opposed to the regular school, where English was taught very basically in the last 3 years, 2 hours a week. Needless to say, this was a horrible workload for a little kid. 7 "hours" (45 mins + give or take 15 mins break) a day. 6 days a week. But I digress. So, twice a week we had "music" as our 7th lesson. it was around 3pm (we started at 8:30) We were all half-dead from all the studies. Our music teacher, seeing that we are not quite able to, say, try a chorus, would often just say: "Today, I will put up a record of... and then gave us the opportunity to doze off for the last 45 minutes in school that day, while something classical played on the old scratched vinyl. It was there, where I really learned to appreciate classical music. This wonderful piece included, of course. I still love classics and listen to it all the time. Don't judge me hard : )

The important thing is that you got here. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

[@carolakirsten5473]

Das Orchester in Perfektion, einfach exzellent!

[@Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr]

So powerful... no way to describe. All you can do is sit.. and listen .. and smile. And for just a moment, all is right with the world.

Until it finishes and you realise the world is not alright. Don't be so delusional.

[@Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr]

@@markcaldwell2831 Feel better about yourself now? I said ... "JUST FOR A MOMENT", God Damn Dummy .. not for ETERNITY. Go steal someone else's joy, you fool. Mine is entirely intact.

[@lonebeagle]

BRAVO piccolo soloist! Remember, Mehta studied at the Vienna Academy. My violin teacher, Haig Balian, was his room mate. They both were with the L.A. Phil back in the day.

[@jamesmillen9120]

The piccolo player is unbelievable ! What incredible articulation. How can anyone play that rapidly ?

[@matthewwalsh7813]

Listening to Wiener Philharmoniker play Fledermaus is like listening to a Spaniard play Flamenco or a Black American sing Gospel. Centuries of culture. It's untouchable by those who weren't born into it. I envy them all.

[@Boccaccio1811]

Damn, that piccolo playing at 8:17 was flawless!

[@rudyalvarez551]

Boccaccio1811 yeah but dont mic the piccolo!

[@jeromeweingart5596]

Boccaccio1811 Of course. Its the Vienna Phil!

[@emanuelflutes5504]

[@abashidze08]

Literally No one can play Strauss like Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, others just pass by the right tunes ❤️

[@Thepourdeuxchanson]

Berlin Philharmonic does it great!

[@jamesmillen9120]

IMO the Vienna Philharmonic is the best orchestra in the world --- and I'm from Chicago ! Well, CSO, you're in 4th place behind the Vienna, Berlin and Concertgebau.

[@Dylonely_9274]

I love this overture, you can’t help but smile listening to J. Strauss II’ music !

[@isabeleugeniahoyosgomez7261]

Johannas Straus acompañó la juventud de muchos de nosotros y nos llevó a volar y conocer otros paisajes!!! De hecho nos inspiró a hacerlo!

[@Diego_Gon12]

Thanks Tom and Jerry will always be my childhood

[@antonioduarte2288]

Comparto contigo Tom y Jerry en hollywoodbol

[@largemarge1603]

... and only the conductor remains to play every part?

[@nicolayu.kotomanoff4358]

Me too!👍

[@Pheebsjpn]

Thank you, Tom & Jerry for introducing this masterpiece! 💝

[@nomusicnolife-f5p]

Extremely skilled orchestra and beautiful melody... now my room becomes a stage in Vienna

[@AsherSkylark]

That was beautiful. Superb performance

[@jaybee106]

What a setting and what an orchestra - bravo Maestro Mehta! It had me dancing around the room.

[@Oceanbreeze-m7e]

Just amazing!!! Bravo!!!👏👏👏👏

[@alexv3357]

Beautiful, richly textured, and unhurried in delivery. I love it

[@GiratinaGX]

5:59 You can almost hear that bus

[@seawolf4846]

This made me laugh harder than it should have.

[@adalyubarksy9985]

Excellent performance . The best I heard and I saw this operetta at least half a dozen times . Maestro Zubin Mehta was superb . Bravo !!! . Thanks . Todo .

[@zaidamjad1923]

Many memories in this music 😢

[@tisglorenzo6709]

just beautiful，wonderful music

Una extraordinaria interpretación llena de vigor y alegría a cargo del gran director hindú.....Sin palabras...

[@mireyagallegos7863]

Yo creía que era árabe.Lo admiro mucho,sea cual sea su nacionalidad!

[@simonkawasaki4229]

Despite the output of Johann Strauss II, which rarely went past popular dance music and operetta, the man was a savant of theory and orchestration, especially evident in this overture!

[@alger3041]

Can we please appreciate this very fine piece entirely for its own sake, without any reference whatever to Tom and Jerry. I will refrain from comment about those who still feel they require it.

[@sybil-charlenemicon-nicht9534]

C’est magnifique, le directeur musical fascinant, merci beaucoup 🇫🇷❤️🙏🎼🎶🎵🎻

[@peterasp1968]

Great and the bass in the prelude to the coda was amazing

[@filip8689]

is nobody mentioning the fact that the man at 0:34 who is playing the melody looks exact way like the cat does in the tom and jerry episode?

[@tommilano2000]

Fine piccolo playing! Although, I wouldn't mic it; the instrument is already naturally loud. Also, I love how I hear a true ensemble instead of a lot of individuals playing. The Vienna Philharmonic really knows how to play like one instrument.

[@pamelalawrence1704]

I love this. So beautiful.

[@leonidasrivera8857]

Magnifico,hasta los aplausos suenan bien.

[@FrozenDragon0630]

Out of all of them that have been played this one is probably the best one out of all of them it also gives such a good reminder of the tom n Jerry episode the holly wood bowl.

[@yy-wz1dk]

Zubin Mehta the Parsi boy from Mumbai, India. Super!

[@kisordog100]

Kedvenc operanyitányaim, illetve kedvenc vígoperáim egyike!

[@1976kanthi]

Agree

[@ferdie3123]

According to the expert listening to classical music is good for the BRAIN. Good music.

[@EllenN1963]

I much prefer the Vienna Philharmonic when conducted by Zubin Mehta. This is a very good example of why I feel that. Ausgezeichnet!!

我想，如果沒有傑利鼠的搗亂，湯姆貓肯定能順利地指揮這完整的交響曲。

this is a great rendition although some may prefer Kleiber's interpretation a little better.

[@lucasgomes8506]

nice

[@tlmoscow]

I live in Cambodia, where it is very warm. When I work at home, I throw a towel on my chair. Today, coming back from the kitchen with vanilla pudding to celebrate the end of a day’s work, the towel had shifted - and what’s that on the cushion? A bat. A pancake-flat, bat. Welcome to the tropics. So, I am listening to this musical piece to memorialize a flat bat’s life, foreshortened by my, ah… look, it was his fault. Please join me in remembrance. Have some pudding.

[@moonguy6398]

Tom and jerry nice, but I’m watching this tryna check my tone and stuff for an audition

[@iamthefirstandonlycheesecake]

Hope it went well

[@candy7600]

What is the key in?

[@otamota7563]

At least for some part of it like 3:44, it is in G major, though it may transpose to other keys before and after
