I love his very slight little smiles dotted through the piece.

This wonderful masterpiece promotes spilitual uplift and awakening, and invigorates the soul

[@ZackGasse]

This is absolutely a great find. Mravinsky was feared and admired by the Lenin Orch.and they played like Gods for him.

[@user-sx3wy7mh9g]

This is the orchestra of the Leningrad Philharmonic.

[@srothbardt]

@@user-sx3wy7mh9g That’s what he meant. Just lazy.

[@BytomGirl]

Lets add that Mravinsky could not be admired by Lenin, he was 21 when Lenin was killed and besides, Mravinsky was not a fan of the commie system. He was an aristocrat

ムラヴィンスキーの最晩年の ロミ＆ジュリだ。ムラヴィンスキーには、バレエ曲全曲を録音して欲しかった。 レニフィルの、重低音は、下っ腹に響く！こんなコンビは、なかなか出てこないだろう。それにしても、レニフィルの弦の音色が美しい！ホルンパートも美しい！

The music blooms with incredible power.

Qué increíble. Me encanta como tener una fachada tan pacífica, pero sus gestos, sus movimientos, todo emana una fuerza y dureza impresionante. Es como una bocanada de aire fresco en tanta exuberancia que se ve en los escenarios.

[@srothbardt]

GREAT conductor. Not a communist. A gentlemanl of the old school. They kept him on because he was a genius and all the musicians and composers liked him and probably Stalin didn’t mind him because he kept his mouth shut. He wasn’t a composer or poet so he didn’t publish dangerous stuff.

Like Mary Poppins, this is practically perfect. Absolutely masterful balance and synchronicity and I love his wry smile at the sax.

It is nice to see that this conductor conducts according the basic rules of conducting...He is not a Romantic painter, more a Cubist one...very effective anyway...

[@elmorej155]

Double - genius !

[@robinblankenship9234]

So very Russian and so very human.

[@user-fn1xl6kx7r]

This is not 1984, the video shows the concertmaster and first violin George Kneller, unfortunately he died in 1982
