One of the most sublime piece of music in the classical music repertoire. Full of rich and raw harmonies and melodies, illustrating life and nature through music

Excuse me. 24:30 Allegro Molto. Sibelius declared this: "World Peace through Music is established" Wonderful. Bravo! Congratulations! My best regards from BRZ. Thank you so much!!

I read somewhere that Sibelius composed this after seeing swans flying above him. I swear the oboes/flutes/clarinets together make a very swan-like call. And the horns make me think of how majestic the swan looks in flight. Ilustrating life and nature through music indeed!

Honesltly the sound engineers did an awesome job on this recording. So crisp, so clean, and each instrument clearly heard and defined. Probably the best sounding recording of this symphony i've ever heard. I've never seen the score myself, so I got to hear a bunch of cool things I hadn't noticed before.

In various places it's tempting to just throw the kitchen sink in and muddy everything up, but it's actually quite exquisite writing with clarity called for almost everywhere. So when it does work out it's totally subliminal. This is not something that can come out well in a place like the Royal Albert Hall.

What a remarkable and expertly composed end to the first movement, from 12:14 to 14:13. The violins set a polite and steady pace for the orchestra’s orderly march towards the exit. The flute chimes a gentle reminder for all to be patient. The cellos cordially comply while keeping a nervous eye on the door. There’s an anxious undercurrent, with everyone barely holding it together. Suddenly, the bassoons and clarinets impetuously demand that the whole affair be speeded up. Unwilling to wait any longer, the trumpets also loudly protest their impatience, greatly ramping up the tension. After one final, futile attempt by the flute to establish a sense of order, it surrenders to the overwhelming and growing confusion. Trombones and horns boisterously assert their presence and enthusiastically enter into the fray. All sense of decorum is completely abandoned and from here on it’s every instrument for himself. A wonderfully controlled chaos ensues as the entire orchestra is caught in a frantic mad dash to be the first to cross the finish line. The vivid symphonic imagery that Sibelius manages to create here in just a few bars is sheer genius.

Bravo!! This was one of the most effective, deeply-felt performances of this great work I may have ever heard. It certainly captured the exhilaration of seeing birds in flight, which I can imagine the entire Symphony to be about. It was intensely moving without being "over-interpreted", and inner voices could be heard clearly.

Another exquisite performance of Sibelius' 5th by the Frankfurt Radio Symphony with maestro Bjarnason keeping the tempo very exact and true to the score. The wind and brass sections are both impressive with the young lady on 2nd Oboe particularly 'on song'. Jean would have been delighted with this performance and the esteem with which his 5th is held in.

@staffanolofsson82012 жыл бұрын
This is perhaps my favourite. Together with the second, the third and the forth! But this fifth has something that the other lacks. This fifth is there just in it own ways, or just for fun, and then great music occurs. This fifth has astonished me many times with its splendour, like in the last movement. So I like to like it as one of my favourite Sibelius.

Wunderschöne Aufführung dieser spätromantischen und nordisch komponierten Sinfonie mit gut harmoniserten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der zweite Satz klingt echt schön und auch melodisch. Der intelligente und geniale Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester in verschiedenen Tempi und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Wundervoll vom Anfang bis zum Ende!

Ja. Das Orchester ist wunderbar ausgeglichen in seinen Sections. Echtes Teamwork, jder hört auf jeden. Aber besonders die Bläsersection ist bei Sibelius gefordert, und hat die schwierige Aufgabe super gelöst. Wir Frankfurter haben hier ein Juwel. Weltklasse.

An excellent account. Especially the first movement, that consisted in the original version of the symphony of two movements, is very difficult to conduct and play. It shatters very easily to pieces. I have in recent years heard so many. less good renditions, that I have sometimes felt, that the only few born Sibelians can make the most of it. Maestros like von Karajan, Vänskä, Ashkenazy or Dausgaard. Now I can add to this list also Bjarnason. And the orchestra. What can I say of it? I think I have heard so many top concerts of Sibelius in recent years, that perhaps the Frankfurt orchestra is the leading interpretor of the Sibelius symphonies right now. When do we hear Sibelius’s Fourth Symphony or the programmatic symphonic works like Kullervo Symphony or Lemminkäinen Suite: four legends? I tend to believe, that this organization could easily find some refreshing perspectives to theseworks, too.

If you mean conductor Klaus Mäkelä, he is very good at Sibelius. I haven’t seen that particular performance but I’ve listened him to perform life Sibelius’s 2nd symphony some years ago and it was great.

…….Sinfonien sind keine tausend Seen, auch wenn sie tausend Löcher haben….frei nach Adorno. Auch ich finde Sibelius Musik überschätzt. Gerade in den USA und Großbritannien, da rangierte der in der Wertschätzung lange deutlich vor Bruckner und Mahler!
