This guy knew what 100% perfect actually means.

"It's marvelous, but would you like to schmaltz it up more ?", and he said "No." LOL

[@TheSutov]

This is splendid. What a contrast to, say, Kleiber. I feel though that some violins wanted to juice it up, to speed it up. But, he gave them the look!

[@valdengo1]

..one of his musicians stated he was great....a short tubby man, .and anti social and a sadistic boss.....in fact he refused to be part of the Chicago scene...he retained his home in Connecticut all those years he was a Chicago conductor, and left Chicago when the season ended, each year...

[@darkrevel]

The master conductor of the 20th century!

[@garfreed]

When Bernstein was his student at Curtis he once called Reiner "Fritz" to his face

Gary Freedman hogwash

[@rq3tgunm]

An angry turtle...

[@changjiang001]

even with a little body movement, he shows exactly what he wants in the music. really a master!

[@giovannirivoira5496]

A giant of the art of conducting!!!thank you so much!!!

[@afrofinka]

He was talking about the sound he wanted to build during his conductorship with the Cleveland Orchestra : the sound of the pre-WW1 European orchestras and the sound of American orchestras of the golden era.

Он так показал первую долю, что я не включая звука догадался, что это VII симфония)

[@Ravenshadow78]

[@Fritz_Maisenbacher]

Musik und Wahrheit. Das ist wahre Musik. Da haben wir's.

Two years before he caught a cab_____

[@salt_cots]

As I watched this video - the first movement of the seventh is a joyous movement - I was trying to think if I could hear joy in the music. I don't think so, and the sour expression on Reiner's face wan't helping. Of course I believe he was ill in his last years with a heart problem. There certainly wasn't much joy in the lessons the Hungarian taught at Curtis, as Leonard Bernstein recalls.

[@cadaverdog1424]

Amazing footage !!!!! Please post more!!!!!________________________|

みんな音をよく聞いてるなあ

[@mrdarcyme]

I think Reiner was great in modern and romantic repertoire, a bit stiff, wooden and joyless in Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven..

[@goodmanmusica]

the video is a half tone up!

[@owenganter7971]

Is the full video of Reiner conducting Beethoven's 7th available somewhere? There's a video made in 1954 at kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWmyl5Rug5ajh9U, but this seems to be a later version.

[@Svatopluk]

His stick technique was already terrible by this point.

[@changjiang001]

Thanks!

[@hectorberlioz1449]

Unfortunately the pitch is a half tone to high. It should be a major not b flat major!

[@changjiang001]

what did szell wanna say at the end?

[@MikeDrewYT]

He did have the advantage of having known Beethoven personally...

[@Ceta.2489]

What piece is this?

[@rodrigoeu215]

Theodore Peng Beethoven´s 7th simphony, 1st movement

[@user-tv3bu9jd3v]
