[@beardedskyrim8652]

I am not sure.. a lot of this became music for films,and IS not comparable to actual music...

[@lupothunder9786]

haha...great explanation of havin a mental problem! 😂...nice one😘

[@bryangl1]

@@beardedskyrim8652 So it would have been OK if it hadn't been "adapted" for use in film scores (not that I've ever come across it in a film score)??

[@beardedskyrim8652]

@@bryangl1 It is definetly amazing music. Excuse my wording, I am not a native english speaker. I was just trying to say that a lot of his music is kind of painting, where he describes a scene he sees in his mind, like descriptive music. So it kind of becomes silly, so I kind of skip through 90 percent of his symphonies and just go to good bits.

[@richardwilliams473]

I love the way the Principal Timpanist looks out over his fellow musicians when playing important solo parts

[@nicolasgschwend6466]

Il y a 40 ans que j'écoute cette symphonie qui est ma préférée de Mahler mais cette version est au dessus de toutes..la façon dont le chef laisse respirer la musique et la précision des musiciens...je suis soufflé ! Et les poils qui se hérissent...ce qui devient plus rare à 60 ans...merci!

[@NDRKlassik]

Merci à Vous!!

[@stephenjablonsky1941]

You sometimes wonder how Mahler could have conceived of a work this immense and still pulled it off. Everyone goes home tired...a good tired.

[@paulhenner8914]

OMG so many times I have heard this.................and still the last movement brings tears to my eyes !

[@thetygerpulpitwithpastorglenn]

I've heard online at least 50 times. The Resurrection stands above all others! The first time I heard it (I'm a very late comer to classical music) I wept. It was a spiritual experience.

[@nnthadani1]

Why does music bring eats to the eyes?

[@historiacriticaprof.carlos5261]

The most intense and sublime music I've ever heard. Mahler is an emotion maker.

[@richardwilliams473]

All credit goes to Alan Gilbert from making the transition from rank and file violinist to a very accomplished conductor BRAVO

[@vedprakashmevada6741]

I saw him I heard him conduct and I am conquered.

[@markusstark8564]

Ich bin echt begeistert, wie Gilbert und das NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester Mahlers 2. hier präsentieren. Da gibt es viele Dinge, die ich so noch nie vorher bei anderen Aufnahmen gehört habe. Auch das Tempo so gut! Für mich mit Abstand die beste Aufnahme ever!

[@NDRKlassik]

Vielen Dank!

[@ruoyunshen]

wonderful recording. thank you for putting this on KZbin for free.

[@wesleysjk]

Just an increadible performance! The video recording is also magnific, always bringing into focus key instruments that are playing at each moment. I just love Mahler's symphonies, but the second is my favorite, and this performance is lovely great!

[@BESTRoboticsEd]

What a unique combination of orchestra culture + attentive and sensitive maestro, and the result is Mahler the way we would love his ingenuity interpreted.

[@NDRKlassik]

Thank you very much, we love to hear that! :)

[@22hoalac]

There is no doubt that Orchestras from Germany are always at the forefront when it comes to musical masterpieces. Thank you so much NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester for giving us the opportunity to enjoy the great symphony.

[@NDRKlassik]

We are very happy you enjoyed it! :) Thank you for joining!

[@danilovelasquez2539]

And as KZbin is my source for all these 19th and 20th century orchestral music, I wholeheartedly thank the generosity of German radio symphony orchestras as the NDR, WDR, Hesse-Frankfurt, BRSO, etc. May their gesture continue and give classical music lovers across the globe internal joy, if not spiritual emotions. Vielen Dank Deutsche Rundfunkorchester.

[@NDRKlassik]

A single KZbin comment for some - but it means a lot for all of us concerned!! So much appreciated, thank you! ❤️

A stirring performance of Mahler 2 by the musicians of the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester under Maestro Alan Gilbert! Bravo to Christina Nilsson, soprano, and to Sarah Connolly, mezzo-soprano for their fine rendition of the solo parts! likewise, bravo to Rundfunkchor Berlin, and to the NDR Vokalensemble for their beautiful choral singing!

[@pnocella]

BTW - The recorded sound is sumptuous!

[@ingehermanrydland9106]

This is music for the heart, mind and soul. Fantastic performance - a thoroughness that leaves me deeply thankful to the musicians, choir and soloists for opening up Mahler's marvellous univers in this spectacular manner.

[@NDRKlassik]

We are touched by your words. Thank you very much!

I always find myself going back to listen to this recording! Personally, this is the best Mahler 2 performance yet. Bravo to everyone involved! I hope to listen to the orchestra live in my lifetime~ 🥰

[@NDRKlassik]

Thank you, very much appreciated! We hope so too. But if not: Just stay tuned for more! 🤩🙌

[@angelalewis3645]

[@hornerinf]

I have had the thrill of performing this great symphony many times. This is one of the most passionate and well played that I've heard. The sound of the orchestra is so warm and rich. Brilliant ensemble. Bravo!

[@NDRKlassik]

So kind of you, thank you!! Much appreciated!

[@parkthoven]

Such a good chemistry between Gilbert and the orchestra~~! I also enjoyed Mahler 7 with Gilbert and NDR. Hope the Mahler journey would go further 8, 9 and 10~~:)

[@NDRKlassik]

Indeed, an awesome chemistry it is! We are happy to have him with us for another couple of years!!

[@steinblitz1506]

[@neiljosephbennett9119]

Without a doubt, this is one of the VERY BEST performances I have seen on KZbin, and I've seen a lot of them, this being my favourite Mahler symphony. Choristers and soloists sans scores - wonderful to see! And real bells instead of the tubular variety. Sublime!

[@NDRKlassik]

We feel honored - thank you for the compliment! 🤩

[@minpn5810]

It’s perfect that the audience didn’t applaud right after the last note

[@lesonyrra]

Wow. There's lots of meh Mahler performances out there, but this *isn't* one of those. Gilbert and the team leap on this piece from the get-go with the urgency it deserves and ... well, just keep that energy going. Great!

[@markgibson6654]

Well NDR Klassik you've done it again. I have always loved the music of Bruckner,and the Wand/NDR performances of this composer have certainly contributed to that love, but I have never been drawn to Mahler's music...until I came across this video. I found the music and performance compelling and the finale in particular quite moving. I am stunned. Thanks NDR Klassik!!

[@NDRKlassik]

So happy to hear this!! Thank you for taking the time to listen even though you didn't feel drawn to it in the first place!

01:18:11 The ending, of course much like the _Chorus Mysticus_ onwards from _No. 8,_ rarely fails to make the hairs stand on end. A fine performance from all concerned.

[@thierrythierry9972]

❤ J'aime le battement de cette version de la seconde symphonie "Résurrection". Il s'agit bien d'un allegro maestoso en ouverture, et voilà un chef qui n'a pas oublié ce que cela veut dire, tout en conservant la charge émotionnelle de l'œuvre, sa respiration et son aspiration… Bravo à toutes et à tous !

Gilbert ist ein ausgezeichneter Mahler-Interpret. Frag mich immer warum er keine Gesamtaufnahme mit den NYPh gemacht hat.

[@bryangl1]

Described in some high-ranking music circles as "possibly the most musically satisfying symphony ever composed". Humbly, an opinion with which I can't disagree. There are tempi differences here, also subtle differences in balance between inner voices, other differences that I can't put my finger on, all differences from approaches more usually encountered. But not only will I need to adjust to these differences, I suspect I in the end, I will prefer them. Thank you for an excellent and refreshing performance.

[@NDRKlassik]

Thank you, much appreciated! 😊

[@mrbanks5344]

Cuando una orquesta interpreta esta obra, todos los músicos están super motivados y las interpretaciones son magistrales. Lo más importante es que el intérprete emocioné al espectador. Gilbert lo consigue. Interpretación muy buena y muy original.

[@NDRKlassik]

¡Gracias @mrbanks5344! Totalmente de acuerdo. Nos alegra saber que valoras la habilidad de Alan Gilbert. La Segunda Sinfonía de Mahler, conocida también como "La Sinfonía de la Resurrección", es una pieza que requiere no sólo habilidad técnica, sino también una gran pasión. #Mahler2 #NDRKlassik
