One of the most victorious resolves of any symphony I've heard.

La mejor versión que he escuchado, magnífica, culmina como ninguna otra, la orquesta suena excelente, centrados y en comunión con el director. Bravo!!!

get ad block

[@andreagiusepperossi6748]

E' un finale monocorde che non differenzia la parte del racconto con la parte conclusiva che é una parte trasfigurata e che deve essere intesa come un messaggio universale , non esiste un distacco tra le due parti e pertanto la parte conclusiva perde la forza che la parte trasfigurata deve avere. ( dal minuto 29, 10 )

[@patrick_pohjola]

And who is the conductor ?

[@ilokivi]

Sakari Oramo.

[@nickbamber268]

Now I know what I don't like about this work. Tooooooo romantic.

The final chords are noted 'sffz'. Hardly the case here.
