cette interprétation de l'Orchestre et de son Chef , je ne m'en lasse pas, tout est léger, joyeux, naturel je suis dans les Cévennes de ma rivière Dourbie qui coule et rugit selon les saisons

Have you ever thought that this music began as a blank sheet of paper? What an undertaking.

[@robertberkhout4744]

it was all in the head long before any paper was purchased!

Absolutely glorious performance of my favourite symphony. When I’m feeling down I just close my eyes and listen to this majestic composition and I can see the beautiful country side where my mother was born ( Casablanca, a small country town in Valparaiso, 🇨🇱 Chile) where the earth is so fertile and I enjoy few years of my childhood. Surrounded by wildflowers, fruit trees a lovely lake and a nearby creek. Just the most enjoyable pastoral life. Love Beethoven.

[@margaretstrochnetter2850]

This is also my favorite symphony. Nature captured in all its perfection, serenity and beauty through music. Beethoven. ♥️♥️

The smaller orchestra is perfect for Beethoven. The instruments have great clarity. Dynamics and tempo is excellent. As good as it gets. Bravo.

I've never seen a conductor take such obvious joy in the music he was conducting. Many conductors seem to approach the jobs as a chore to be dispensed with. And the joy is contagious.

Hello,just been watching too and I too noticed how the conductor and some of the musicians seemed happy!

Yes I agree. Yannick is a wonderful Conductor with so much passion!

When the world seems like a big forlorn place, this symphony reminds us of the deepest beauty there is. Beethoven is giving us a song to experience that beauty with.

[@hebnattdescthier6353]

Quel Panache ! Le chef D'Orchestre montre toute sa Passion pour diriger son Orchestre , quel Talent ! Merci du partage.

[@eduardo_corrochio]

One of the great things about this piece is how it can go from soft as a whisper in some sections and then become bursting with energy and verve mere moments later. Super performance here, and of course Yannick Nézet-Séguin is a joy to behold as he guides the group. I do enjoy how this timeless music has been used in films and television over the decades-- from The Simpsons (season 2, episode 9, "Itchy & Scratchy & Marge" in which all the children in Springfield finally venture outdoors to play in the fresh air; it's a lovely sequence, both the music and the animation) to the dystopian 70's film Soylent Green.

[@elsagutierrez7940]

Beautiful!

[@arayeretsian6487]

Mr. Nezet-Seguin understands Beethoven very, very well, and he brings out the best in this well lubricated, finely tuned orchestra. The players enjoy listening to each other and they play in the most musically charming manner possible. There is joy all around! This sixth symphony has a unique flavor, and I could recognize it anywhere, anytime, as I can do with a few other conductors.

My daughter was born while this piece was playing in our room. In fact, I'm told that it was at 24:15 in the score (at 7:44 pm on 2/25/1997) that she first drew breath to cry. I don't remember but I wish I did.

[@joedart1465]

I try to imagine the feelings that Beethoven experienced as the themes of this Pastoral symphony gathered in his imagination. The finished symphony is his attempt to present the emotions of those inspired moments. If they were actually any better than he depicts them here, then he was a truly fortunate human.

[@sitarnut]

This a great performance to my ears and eyes...don't think I've seen a more animated orchestra - they are so into this. Wonderful, joyous. Beethoven's caught us was one more time with magical No.6...

Music, the beauty is in the eyes of beholder. Yannick and COE were a perfect match in my ears. The music was the right tempo, right emphasis, right emotion, credits to the conductor, it was also clear and crispy, credits to the orchestra. Afterwards, I listened to several other contemporary conductors and orchestra, none is as good. Yannick and COE are going to be the gold standard for Beethoven #6 for a while.
