I absolutely LOVE how the first movement moves along with only judicious touches of rubato. The second movement similarly runs with an un-sappy andante, not adagio as too many conductors do it. I expected the third movement to faster than average, but it was relaxed and most enjoyable. The fourth movement was deliciously dramatic... All in all, a really splendid performance of a familiar symphony that too often gets bogged down with old "expressive" customs that I don't think the composer would have liked. Hey, WDRS, how about a tour in the USA so we can get to know you a little better? 😃 MANY thanks for posting!

Thanks for your kind words, we appreciate your support a lot and we will keep on posting 😊. At the moment there is no tour planned through the US. If you plan your next holiday, what about a trip to Germany and getting some tickets for concerts? Almost every week we play concerts in the philharmonic in Cologne. 😏

Finally, someone who does the first movement as a real 'Allegro con brio'!

Three trombones playing two repeated notes signal a new theme to come!

Ich weiß nicht, wie vielen Menschen ich seit dem Livestream von diesem Konzert schon vorgeschwärmt habe! Ich liebe Brahms. Dieses Konzert und auch das Interview von Cristian Macelaru dazu haben mir noch einmal eine neue Dimension eröffnet. DANKE!

I agree, sir. This performance brings out the muscular-Beethovenian classicism of the piece and lays aside the whiny-Tchaikovskian schmaltz.

Mir ging und geht es genauso, höre diese Musik vollkommen neu, so selbstverständlich ohne Pathos und durchsichtig, klar. Bin begeistert.

Also man soll ja nicht schon in der ersten Sekunde kritisieren, aber hier... Die Balance der Bläser stimmt ja mal überhaupt gar nicht bei den eröffnenden Akkorden. Hier führt das Blech. Es soll aber das Holz führen.
