It was a cold autumn day and I was sat by mother's bed holding her hand in her last moments on this earth when in the background this piece of music came on the radio, I was amazed to see the dark clouds through the window part, and rays of sunshine break through .that is the moment that my mother's soul left us and rose to heaven ❤. She was a true Christian I was not, I am now because I truly believe that this piece of music was heaven sent .we will be together soon mummy ♥

This piece makes me feel so many emotions. I am getting older. I am learning more. I am getting older. I am losing more. I am getting older and time doesn’t stop. Life is so beautiful and so heartbreaking. You cannot have one without the other. This piece encapsulates the “good” and “bad” of emotions.

[@elianecognard7735]

You are very wise and near the truth. JJC

wow Lilly, thanks for sharing 💓

Very Profound.....My Sentiments As Well ....Something You Can Only Know After Living Years Of All That Life Is

[@srvban]

Amazing. The audience was gifted to be there.

[@douglas2510]

The audience was definitely gifted to be there. I was one of the gifted ones. It all started by a last minute trip from london to vienna because I told my wife and daughter I wanted to watch that concert. And my God, that was an explosion of emotions that I never forget in my life.

[@kaioo1658]

This is the most beautiful song ever created of all time. How lucky we are to be able to listen to it whenever we want

[@------------------------....]

Agreed

[@rationalbeliever91]

Memories to my father, when we were together and i so much love to listen classic tracks with him. I love you daddy, i miss you every single day...

[@pakabe8774]

Ich hatte eben die Version eines Laienorchesters gehört und da ist mir wieder einmal deutlich geworden, wie deutlich der Unterschied zu einem professionellen Orchester ist. Ganz egal wie gut diese jungen Musiker waren, es liegen Welten zwischen deren Leistung und dem hier dargebotenen Meisterwerk. Wir dürfen allen Menschen dankbar sein, die so viel Zeit und Liebe in die Perfektionierung dieser Kunst investiert haben, dass wir so etwas himmlisches erleben können.

[@jesussanz101]

No es la serenidad que transmite, ni la manera en que habita las partes más heridas del alma hasta sanarlas. Es la manera que tiene de llenar de contenido el silencio mas doloroso por la pérdida de un ser querido lo que hace que la substancia de que esta hecha esta música nos transforme por unos instantes en la propia música. Thank you Mr Barber. Thank you Mr Dudamel por este regalo.

[@yunusemregokmen6330]

All the heavens above and God stopped and listened to this with us...

[@kadaroujda3644]

بحث عن هذه الموسيقى سنين عديدة انا فرح جدا لانني وجدتها. 😊

[@A.Spivey]

The composer, Samuel Barber, once said that this piece was the soundtrack to a love afair. While I have loved and taught this piece for years, his description has never made sense to me. This seems a tone poem of loss and heartbreak and mourning.

[@katiacristina4025]

Para mim faz sentido... O amor, o envolvimento, o ápice da paixão e a perda seguida de uma dor imensurável.

[@user-cr9zn3qs3r]

@@katiacristina4025 too much pain.

[@Rasscasse]

All those thing you say; loss heartbreak and mourning can come from a love affair, if it turns out to be that way. After all, it can take you to the highest heights and the lowest of lows. Happily, not all love affairs do.

[@SouloftheTroll]

Samuel Barber, once said that this piece was the soundtrack to a love afair, unrequited. Therein the hope and sorrow.

[@KiwiGirlnCo]

It is the depths of despair

[@dtc1091]

The best performance by far that I’ve ever heard of this piece ❤

[@SouloftheTroll]

i fully agree

[@arun2995]

I truly believe that there are people out there that are just helpless. How can anyone give this gift a thumbs down is beyond me.

[@hectoralmeidaduran3061]

Increíble y bello adagio del compositor americano Samuel Barber , Expresa dolor , tristeza todo esto en un gran escenario en Viena y con la dirección a cargo de este gran director G Dudamel Que escenario tan bello y que multitud de gente reunida Que maravilla haberlo oido !

[@elizabethagozzino2230]

Esta pieza hace que vuelva atrás en el tiempo,recorra toda mi vida,pasando de los peores a los mejores momentos que viví,sintiendo paz en la tristeza y en la alegría!

[@stefan1924]

This piece feels like journeying through a drama full of pain and suffering

[@zimatar489]

So beautiful and touching music. Thank you Samuel Barber. Thank you Maestro Dudamel and the Viena Philharmonic Orchestra.

[@susanllequis3832]

Adagio for strings is beautiful and so is his violín concierto.Thank you Samuel Barber.

[@Rasscasse]

Nicely put. I echo your sentiments.

[@hannusivula5522]

That pause at 6:30 is full of music. How can silence be so touching?

[@femopa88]

There is where Tiesto starts

[@danielbrasil8189]

Porque o silêncio também é uma resposta. E na maioria das vezes é uma mentira. Aprendi com meu filho.

[@MsMiDC]

Silence often speaks more than words.

[@johndavemillet2795]

So well said!

[@anonymouswife007]

Can’t believe no one in the comments knows who Dudamel is! He’s a Venezuelan National Treasure ❤️🇻🇪💙

[@SouloftheTroll]

Well, in Los Angeles, New York and Vienna they know who he is!!!!

[@ascendingdescendant]

When I go out this is the music I’d like to be listening too. Blissfully peaceful...

[@willygarcia369]

This music reminds me when Willem Dafoe is running in the jungle, really hurt and trying to scape from Vietnam soldiers, and at the end, raising her hands and looking the sky, and giving her last breath. It's so touching this scene even more with this music😢

[@topspeedbrazil6853]

🥺😥😥💔💔

[@michaelmcbreen4025]

I agree but if you want a more touching scene that will break your heart where this piece was first heard on film may I suggest the saddest true film of the 80s ,The Elephant Man.starring john hurt as the Elephant Man and Anthony Hopkins as the doctor who tried to help him.

[@Brazouck]

The destruction of Hiigara

[@maureendrozda9960]

Yes!

[@pauliberg3492]

amazing-- and the intensity of the music and his conducting--absolutely the best.

Hermosa Sinfonía Adagio for strings que gran acierto tuvo OLIVER STONE al incluirla en su obra Maestra PLATOON PELOTON en ESPAÑOL sobre la Guerra de Vietnam la descubrí en 1988 cuando por primera vez vi la película y desde entonces me tiene hechizado hinoptizado conmocionado no puedo siempre que tengo ocasión dejar de escucharla me tiene embelesado GRACIAS ADAGIO

[@diymom2]

I want a recording in surround sound from the Conductor’s podium. It must sound so intense and emotional

[@Rasscasse]

I thought about exactly the same thing as you. What it must be like to be stood there right in front of the orchestra and hearing and feeling everything . Every big thing, every little thing, every nuance. Standing there and having that sound wash over you and assault your senses, must be wonderful and addictive .

[@SouloftheTroll]

@@Rasscasse Watching G D's expressions says it all!

I stumbled across this piece at a low point in my time and my life and I was transfixed and listened to it over and over thinking ‘fuck, there is still true beauty in this world!’

[@rolandrodriguez3854]

Intoxicating bass line. Beautiful ❤

[@sdorr]

The composer is Samuel Barber. The conductor is Gustavo Dudamel. One wonders why ViennaPhilVEVO doesn't credit the composer...

[@SouloftheTroll]

Because he is so well known throughout the world. He is the DUDE!

[@aw783]

The Lord blessed Barber with the music that transcends time and place! The music raises the spirt and instills hope for the future! May God bless America!

[@therightmusic7639]

This is deeply dramatic and sincere...it's even painful... It seems the musical background of a dantesque scene in which the unleashed human baseness vilely violate the dignity of the innocent... Or the painful procession of a hero who has decided to immolate himself for a noble ideal...Touching interpretation...Thank you Barber, Dudamel and Wiener Philharmoniker... Bravi!!!

The first time I listened to this piece was at the concert with Leonard Slatkin conducting the BBC Orchestra in memory of 11 September 2001 and in honor of those who lost their lives a few days prior...... it sounded then like it was composed for that very moment, little did I know at the time....kzbin.info/www/bejne/j2WziJeFpLSEoKs It still gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it again...... kudos to Dudamel and the Wiener Philharmoniker.
