Lutosławski: Konzert für Orchester ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Krzysztof Urbański

[@pibbles-a-plenty1105]

It's disheartening to see so many empty seats for such a wonderful orchestra and magnificent composition. And seen and heard on KZbin by a technically first class video-sound recording.

[@Altonahh10]

It was recorded during the Covid pandemic and there was a very limited audience allowed to be present, I assume.

[@ВладимирУ-т3ц]

Большое спасибо! Отличный концерт! Познавательные комментарии.

[@wolffree1]

OMG diese Musik ist so fantastisch!!!

[@nicolasferri304]

guauuuuuuuuuu que musica maravillosa, que orquesta maravillosa, que gran sonido, gracias

[@dmntuba]

I have been a fan of this orchestra since I heard them for the first time (and live) in Frankfurt summer of 1987. Now I'm also a fan of this music 👍

[@bhodgesnyc]

An incredible performance. On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, there is something inspiring about hearing a Polish conductor lead a masterpiece by a Polish composer, with such fiery commitment. During the long curtain call, the glowing faces of the musicians seal the deal. Marvelous in every way, and in spectacular audio and video.

This work does not need your nationalist promotion.

[@stephenjablonsky1941]

Interesting piece. It does a lot of wonderful things but never reaches the peak of greatness. Great music is very rare and this resides one rung down. I did notice there were a lot of empty seats in the audience because they weren't playing the Bartok Concerto.

[@jgesselberty]

I need to listen to more Lutoslawski.

[@phosphorosrfk]

i just had the same thought.

[@matthewv789]

My understanding is his later works post-1955) are much less tonal. It’s been a long time since I listened to any, but my memories are of not liking the other pieces I heard much at all. Very different from this piece.

[@casparwintermans9492]

As long as there are people who compose, perform and enjoy magnificent music such as this, there is hope for mankind. Vita celebratio est (or at least, it should be so)!

[@Scriabin_fan]

5:57- 7:00 is just so beautiful. Lutoslawski has now been added to my ever growing list of favorite composers.

[@alphataurusii]

a nod to Impressionism👍👍👍

[@avelai9216]

02:02 gives me goosebumos every time. Sounds like the introduction theme to every super villain out there :)

[@mackjay1777]

Wonderful from start to finish. Great piece perfectly played and conducted!!

[@Dimivim]

Conducting by heart? WELL DONE!

[@1lekhine]

Hay tantas versiones que me recomendaron . La verdad . Esta tiene alma . Wunderbar 🙏🏼

[@ThePRAISEMOVES]

Brilliiant performance

[@matthewv789]

I guess I had only heard later Luotslawski in the past, because I don’t remember liking it NEARLY as much as this piece. (As in, I didn’t particularly like it at all.) But this Concerto for Orchestra is very nice, helped along by the wonderful performance. As always, the orchestra plays wonderfully, the conductor is fantastic, and the audio and video production are both fabulous. Urbanski’s hand gestures in recognizing the various sections during the applause are even worth watching - each a beautiful pantomime. Congratulations to everyone involved, and thank you for the beautiful and engaging musical experience!

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

That's the thing about Lutoslawksi. He radically evolved his style in the late 50's and became ever more avantgarde and modern. There is a reason why only the Concerto gets played often. ;)

[@mozartmahler61]

This is most popular Lutoslawsky piece,also because is written in a more accesible way, before composer' 's change of direction towards new and less easy language. Much brilliant version, more or less comparable with Gardner's,.

[@JPFalcononor]

Fantastic performance….I recall my first hearing of this composition back in the early ‘70s when Henry Lewis conducted the New Jersey Symphony during the UN Day concert….one of those uplifting moments that will never be forgotten…….

[@jerzy1306]

Fantastisch!!!!!!!!!!

[@valeriechapman1612]

Lutoslawski: Konzert fur Orchester . hr . Sinfonieorchester I confess to never hearing this piece of music before but I’ll listen to it with open ears. It’s pleasurable enough the orchestra are wonderful musicians very talented. I’ll maybe listen to it again, its difficult to say that you enjoy a piece of music with just having heard it for the first time. Thank You for sending it to me. Goodbye, for now.

[@nicolasferri304]

cada vez que lo escucho me gusta más, el sonido denso, la utilización de toda la orquesta, los diálogos entre instrumentos. impresionante

[@이성호-t3q]

참 좋습니다(very good)!

[@miguelrivera1942]

Excelente.

[@papagenoaoi]

Another fantastic performance behind the amazing production team!

[@fallentreewoodcrafts]

Delightful!

[@OrganNLou]

GREAT PERFORMANCE! One of my FAVE pieces!

[@ronaldbwoodall2628]

Great work! Great performance!

[@notaire2]

Wunderschöne und spannende Aufführung dieses neoklassischen und perfekt komponierten Konzerts mit gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumentalisten. Der inelligente und geniale Dirgent leitet das hoch funktionelle Orchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Wundervoll und atemberaubend zugleich!

[@peterdyatlov]

00:00 - I. Intrada. Allegro maestoso ∙ 07:10 - II. Capriccio notturno e arioso. Vivace 12:37 - III. Passacaglia, Toccata e Corale. Andante con moto - Allegro giusto ∙

[@mateuszczarnowski3964]

I saw the same piece on this channel with Edward Gardner I guess, and it was much more accurate. We nice, original approaches to this music especially in toccata (III mvnt)

[@vinylisland6386]

I first tried the Gardiner performance and gave up quickly, the higher voltage of this was obvious from the outset.

[@jasontiller]

Bravo!! I love it! I've only heard snippets of the Concerto before, but it's pretty darn kewl. HRS is the best, of course, and Urbanski seemed to have total control of the piece. I know it's a bit derivative and seems to owe a lot to Bartok and Shostakovich, but it's still a fun ride. Thank you, as always, for making your glorious performances available to the wider world!!

[@wojciechkaamarz8919]

suuuper

[@sargentfresu4440]

Bravo, enérgica interpretación 👏👏

[@sanjosemike3137]

It starts at about the same tempo as the Brahms First symphony, with the "beats" in the background. Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)

[@bobotcha]

I prefer Urbanski's version to Gardner's on KZbin.

[@semacomer]

Its like someone Completely robbed of love and feelings by life, tries to live but its sort of vacuum, kind of holocaustic Music in a sense. Still great, still manifesto of human need and desire to connect.

[@judgedayan9934]

This is NOT a symphony, it is a movie score.

[@andreaskling6782]

ab 2:01: Das war früher die musikalische Eröffnung des ZDF-Magazins, siehe: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpCckqR6e9ekd9E

[@stxa2594]

2:00 Gerhard Löwenthal lässt grüßen

[@semacomer]

Luto🎉 this cold scary and distant motherfucker delivers some calculated yet imaginary expression

[@orfeo117]

UNA OBRA MUY "PESADA".....ASPERA Y OSCURA.Tantos magnificos instrumentos utilizados para producir"sonidos elementales" es deplorable....NO HAY NI FUERZA, NI VIGOR..........La musica como secuencia de sonorirades casi "onomatopéyicas",se convierte en un "basural acustico"!!!!!...........
