Jerry Hadley is so wonderful!

[@bowint400]

In spite of the fact that he never quite finished writing it, the Requiem shines among Mozart's many masterpieces. This is a unique and glorious interpretation by Bernstein. Where so many other conductors focus on the solemnity, the technical perfection, and the sheer essential force of the music, especially in this passage, Bernstein allows it to expand , to flower and bloom, and has his musicians and singers sensuously luxuriating in the sheer beauty, magnificence and mystery of each phrase. What sounds like a summons in many other interpretations becomes an invitation, what sounds like a warning becomes an annunciation and a joyous celebration. Thank you Lenny, we still miss you!

Meraviglioso ! Tempi perfetti, grande Bernstein

[@andy957]

Mozart's greatest masterpiece.

[@chakkriza234]

I love Maria Ewing aww 🥰

[@musicus9]

me too :)

[@runescapemichbla]

I really like how Leslie Nielsen conducted this piece!

[@patrickneff7846]

I think that's Enrico Pallazzo.

[@noahbromberg3675]

Hahahahahahaah!

[@Fluckor666]

My God! The mezzo

[@MrThepresident2009]

This is a Requiem Mass, not a military march! I agree with Maestro Bernstein slow interpretation of this masterpiece... why you have to run?

[@bruno89lol]

I totally agree with Mr. Renato Mazza. This is a Mass and into a Mass we must always have profound moments of silence and meditation. That is exactly what Mr. Bernstein do for us.

Why they pronounce so italian.. it should be latin in fact...

[@alphonseelric5950]

I think it's too slow and that causes partly deformation on requiem.

[@shakaama]

mozart was such a genius. he even made the women sound deep in the choice of vowels. no shrill squeaks here.

[@jean-francoisrobitaille6560]

Mozart did not write the singers parts for the Tuba Mirum... all he had written by the time of his death for that part was the trombone solo.

[@Kyo10001]

@@jean-francoisrobitaille6560 plus the lyrics were penned in the middle ages

[@xbe1971]

Can't believe the bass soloist took an extra breath in between 'spargens' and 'sonum'..... Even with the rather elaborate ornamentation at the end of the phrase and the slow tempo that should be easy in one breath

[@chinkeongtan2702]

+Lucas Sebastião de Almeida Castro Right. Now try it with full orchestra, no amplification, with a crescendo right through the Bb with a flourish at the end!

[@gynuskeen9205]

He seems to have a face as if he had wanted to strangle the conductor for going so slow....

[@washingtonisaacholmes2093]

Yes. You have no justification for complaining about the break except what? Did the heavens part? Did the ceiling fall in? It was necessary and consideration for the space, orchestra, tempo...it's a reasonable solution

[@andy957]

What the hell did the bass do with the breathing and notes?

[@Piotrszyba.1]

Yep, Jerry made the tenor part very slow. I don't know whose idea it was - his or the conductor's. I can understand it, because he had (before his death) much to offer and it doesn't make any sense to pick up such a great tenor for such short notes and he wanted to make it longer. But sometimes you can't do it, because you're spoiling the whole piece. Anyway Jerry had a tremendous voice.

En el solo de trombón, la parte de las cocheas tiene que ser lo más legato posible...

Which mental pathology suffer who put thumbs down?

[@GekkoKamen]

Hahahaha! XD Good one!!! Hahahahaha!!

[@MrTann2010]

Well, the tempo is meant to be like that.... Grave, I think it was.. for this part, at least.. Anyways, I think the tempo is depicted by Leonard Bernstein and not him...

[@awesomedude7576]

If you look at the original delivery score, it is Andante (Mozart underlined it to put extra emphasis) and in 2/2 time, making it much faster. I believe Mozart intended to add extra orchestration to make it actually fit the lyrics in this tempo. But, the completion of the Tuba Mirum by Sussmayr and Beyer gives it a totally different feeling, which I feel Bernstein made perfectly.

[@TheLivingHeiromartyr]

Lol can do this an octave below >:3

[@photo161]

...some awfully slow tempi, Maestro.

[@Kyo10001]

That bass is no good.

[@정건-o1e]

What a crappy base

[@giuseppapandolfo5408]

Execution tempo too slow. Poor Hadley what he has to suffer.

[@Piotr_Szyba]

He actually liked slow tempo very much and sung many pieces slower than usually.
