Rossini: Wilhelm Tell - Ouvertüre ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Christoph Eschenbach

[@marireed2678]

My new favorite version, I love to show this to my grandchildren because of the close-ups of the individual orchestra members as their part comes into play, making it easy to put the sound to the actual instrument. Thank you.

[@redbrian3655]

Peter-Philipp Staemmler is an outstanding cellist. His intonation and expressiveness is much appreciated!

[@DismasZelenka]

I never realized the William Tell Overture began with such a beautiful cello solo. Kudos to Peter Philipp Staemmler.

[@scottdemel757]

Outstanding! I love this.

[@neilcam]

While the last part is iconic, I find the whole overture to be truly one of the most evocative and brilliantly written pieces in the romantic repertoire! I always hear it (and see it in my mind's eye) as a snapshot of a 24 hour period. The slow, hot, humid, afternoon. The raging evening storm. The beautiful crystalline morning. And then the hunt! Just wonderful, and beautifully performed by such a fantastic orchestra under maestro Eschenbach.

Música ao vivo é sempre única. Nada pasteurizado. Pura técnica e muita competência. Parabéns, Hr. Amo esta orquestra.

Very nice performance 👏 ❤

BRAVOOOOOOOOO!!! Excelente la Orquesta y Maravilosos los Violoncellistas!!!

[@jeandeblaize4175]

Je suis un passionné de cet orchestre depuis le Covid. J'adore dans cette ouverture (juste avant les trompettes et le déchaînement de la cavalerie légère 😊) le dialogue entre flûte traversière et cor anglais, très romantique, poétique et mélodique... Ps : quelqu'un connait-il le nom du violoncelliste soliste ?

Lebhafte und wunderschöne Aufführung dieser romantischen und fein komponiierten Ouvertüre mit gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Die Virtusität beider Holzbläser ist wahrlich bewundernswert. Der intelligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im angemessenen Tempo und mit angenehmer Dynamik. Echt hörenswert!

[@ulrichreifenrath2869]

Was für ein Käse - Eschenbach klebt maximal uninspiriert an den Noten, und leider folgen ihm die Musiker*innen darin. Wie schade!

[@olivoribl]

Elegancia española en el solo de la flauta

[@johnlaurencepoole6408]

With the Wilhelm Tell Ouvertüre under their belt, the orchestra is now ready to tackle Schubert's Overture, "Rosamunde", D.644.

[@violinhunter2]

I wasn't impressed at all. Among other things, the phrasing is uninteresting throughout.

[@littlebigjohn69]

i see no taste, but each of his own .

[@muslit]

Pretty lame performance.

[@hansjuergenkohlhaas871]

Sorry to contradict. To the contrary, the hrSO under Eschenbach's precise baton play the tempi just as required, take for example the Allegro vivace part from 8:25 onwards with Metronome 152 per quarter (in 2/4) - you can't play it faster otherwise the c sharp minor section from 9:35 became unplayable, even for the best of professionals. I had attended that concert in Kronberg and found it excellent and truly exciting.

[@muslit]

@@hansjuergenkohlhaas871 Contradict away. I played this in Italy with Riccardo Muti and it was exciting as hell. It's not the tempo per se, it's the dynamic of the conception. As much as I like Eschenbach, his was not an exciting performance of Tell. And as far as I know, there is no 'precise' tempo in music. This is a performance by the N.Y. Phil., the fastest tempo I've ever heard for this overture, and the players don't seem to have a prokzbin.info/www/bejne/aWHOgoyupdSco9GWlem with the minor section of the finale.

[@ulrichreifenrath2869]

@@muslit Finally one musician here. Thanks for your comment. Pure performance. It's everything but Italian, it's everything but opera - Eschenbach sticks to the score, and so do the musicians to their parts. Such a pity!

[@violinhunter2]

I agree with you. I also thought of the Muti performance - and others - which I have found more exciting. The phrasing (rhythm) here is banal - simply uninteresting, the way university students would play the score. I've never heard the Berlin Philharmonic play this but I imagine it would sound pretty much the same - boring as hell. I could also mention details about the bland initial cello intro but I'm not going to bother. This group plays other works exceedingly well but not this. (What this performance lacks is blood and guts.)

[@muslit]

@@violinhunter2 Berlin playing this with the right conductor makes all the difference. I like Eschenbach, but not here. Maybe it was an off night.
