It’s absolutely ridiculous that anyone could conduct this from memory! Fantastic performance and amazing horns!

I admire anyone who conducts anything from memory. It means the conductor OWNS the music, like the soloists play from memory.

Why all the negative comments? I absolutely love this interpretation of Stravinsky! Rattle looks so intense and they rhythms and chords are so dissonant and it’s the clashiest point in the piece but these musicians embrace it and embrace the intensity and discomfort of the piece. They play it with such care to the ppp and ff moments and the strings are so careful about the accents in the piano moments and I love how careful they are about the extra saucy details. And those horns always have patience, and such good ears.

[@violinhunter2]

I've played it a couple of times (on second violin) and was not aware Stravinsky had re-worked the orchestration. He must have been seeking absolute perfection. I appreciate knowing things like that. Thanks!! :-)

[@matthewvwuk]

Powerful stuff indeed! You can see why the Rite of Spring by Igor Stravinsky caused a riot at its premier in 1913! A piece I really like listening to in full on the radio & I have it on CD & Minidisc too. Sir Simon Rattle conducting the piece well from memory I see.

It's fun to watch woodwind players mark time and metre with their "dance" while playing. If they had to remain still I don't think they could play the piece.

How tf did they get all those instruments in the pit for the ballet?

[@evanpyne4426]

They shrink the orchestra

[@shrimpman9545]

Scardon the pit orchestra is a lot smaller for this piece

[@daniellbondad6670]

+Scardon There are many reasons the Rite of Spring is the most expensive ballet production in history.One of them is that the front rows had to be taken out to expand the pit(and even then,it felt cramped).

[@akshaygowrishankar7440]

Magic. They had to sacrifice to the gods of Spring :)

[@tomokonagata539]

この演奏の時、実は3日間（10月18日、19日、20日）ベルリン・フィルと、パーヴォさんの演奏に通って聴いていました。これは20日の時の映像だと思いますが、実に見事な出来栄えの演奏でした。私は19日にこの演奏を聴いたとき、様々な感慨が沸き上がってきて、ずっと号泣していました。（前から2列目に座っていました） そしたら、パーヴォさんとベルリン・フィルの皆さんが、励ましてくれるように、時に力強く、時に切なく、時に甘く、時に激しく愛情をもって演奏してくださったのです！ すると、今まできいたことのないほど、見事な完成度の高い、ブラームス交響曲第2番となりました！！ ベルリン・フィルの女性マネージャーの方から「私も20年この仕事をしていますが、こんなに感動的な夜は初めてです！あなたは東洋の宝ですね！来てくださってほんとにありがとう！」と握手を求められました。周りのお客様も、P席の聴衆のみなさまも、大興奮な状態でした。 10月20日の収録の際も、大変盛り上がり、パーヴォさんはすっかりゴキゲンで指揮をされていて、東京からベルリンまで一人旅でしたが、とても素晴らしい3日間をすごすことができました。この映像を見るたびに思い出す、素晴らしい演奏です！ At the time of this performance, I actually listened to the Berliner Philharmoniker and Paavo for three days (October 18, 19 and 20). I think this is the video from the 20th, but it was a really wonderful performance. When I listened to this performance on the 19th, various emotions arose and I was crying all the time. (I was sitting in the second row from the front) Then, Paavo and the Berliner Philharmoniker played with enthusiasm, sometimes powerful, sometimes painful, sometimes sweet, and sometimes violently loving! Then, it became Brahms Symphony No. 2 with a superb degree of perfection that has never been done before! !! A female manager of the Berlin Philharmoniker shook hands, saying, "I've been doing this job for 20 years, but it's the first time I've had such a moving night! You're an oriental treasure! Thank you so much for coming!" I was asked. The customers around me and the audience in the P seat were all very excited. The recording on October 20th was also very exciting, and Mr. Paavo was completely conducted and although he was traveling alone from Tokyo to Berlin, he had a wonderful three days. It's a wonderful performance that I remember every time I see this video!

I was expecting to watch the thrilling moment when the horns play the passage, which Stravinsky specified be played "bell up" or similar, when the horns revert to their origins and play with bells lifted upwards, as in the picture featuring the brilliant Sarah Willis.

This is the passage Disney used for the fight between the tyrannosaurus and the stegosaurus in 'Fantasia' - always thought it fitted rather well.

Воспоминательность Алёшка Емельянов По всем коридорам, каморкам, чердачью, промёрзшим подвалам, верандам в бреду, я в поисках счастья, веселья, удачи и счастья былого в потёмках иду, по памятным датам, мгновеньям петляю, качаюсь, плыву иль ползу в полусне, и что позабылось, слегка вспоминаю, светлеет душа, осознанье во мне: тепло материнской утробы, рожденье, познанья, цветенья садов, естества, свиданья и женщины миг обретенья, и первый свой грех под канун Рождества... Всего насмотревшись, где ясно и тихо, как будто на кладбище, рай, где журчу, назад, к охладелым и косным, и лиху отсюда совсем выходить не хочу...

Jan Cowell just because it's the berlin phil doesn't mean that it's not allowed to criticise them... I don't fully agree with the statement, but i also think, that this is not a 100% perfect interpretation

[@jancowell]

That is true, but I don't understand how some commenter can criticise arguably the best orchestra in the world

[@larsdietrich7336]

Jan Cowell i don't think that there is something like "the best orchestra in the world" although you could say that berlin is pretty close to that. The musicians are very close to perfect, but still human and you can't expect from anybody to always play completely flawless in every performance.

[@jancowell]

Of course, that's why I mentioned 'arguably'. Most of these comments are left by amateurs, and that's what I find funny.
