An explosive kamikaze ending the likes of which is seldom heard! Incredible performance with top-notch conductor and an orchestra whose virtuosity is second to none! Arigato. Danke.

[@malkolmlind8598]

No one virus survives against this superb music and talent !!! Thank youuu!!!!!

[@NDRKlassik]

That's a sweet thought! :) At least we can vaccine our souls against the Corona blues with beautiful music, I suppose. All the best!

[@cadesertdude]

Great performance-really splendid. Hats off to the brass section. It’s hard to play so far away from everybody else!!

[@galinakrivulin6767]

BRAVO to this fine orchestra playing under such trying circumstances with no audience to appreciate the performance

Wunderschöne Aufführung dieser romantischen und perfekt komponierten Sinfonie mit gut harmonisierten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der dritte Satz klingt besonders schön und echt elegant. Der intelligente und geniale Maestro dirigiert das perfekt trainierte Orchester im gut phrasierten Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Wahrlich hörenswert!

[@grady876876]

I needed this. Majestic. Inspired. Timeless. Thank you for giving us something to live for during these dark times. Bravo to the entire orchestra.

Marvelous. Thrilling. All my thoughts and feelings about this Music and about Tchaikovsky are here, in this performance. All tempos, accents, moments of loudness and quietness get inside of my heart with great energy of the orchestra and conductor.

[@NDRKlassik]

Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts and feelings :))

[@hansjuergenkohlhaas871]

Herrlich. Der Heilige Abend ist gerettet.

[@Mooslerherzog]

What a surprise: Sebastian Jacot is playing the solo flute!

[@damnedseagull6194]

Bravo 👏👏👏👏

[@rolandonavarro3170]

Excelente interpretación. Una orquesta "first rate" y un director de primera línea que dieron a la obra momentos de gran inspiración. La cornista y demás solos estuvieron a la altura de las grandes orquestas del mundo. ¡Bravo! 👏

[@NDRKlassik]

Muchas gracias!! :)

[@tkhkyki]

Wunderbar !

[@NDRKlassik]

Vielen Dank! Es ist uns eine Freude!

[@finjarmo]

An absolutely fine performance, Mr Gilbert, perhaps the finest I've heard of this symphony. You've got a talented orchestra with very fine musicians, thank you. I like to thank especially the french horn player for her impact at the beginning of 2nd mvt. I can imagine Pjotr Iljitsh lurking over the banks of Neva river with a happy face (and sad at times). Marvellous!

[@NDRKlassik]

Now we've got that image in our heads, too! 😆 Thank you for joining us, thank you for commenting!!

No.5 is full of pathos and sorrows of the human world The wonderfulness of this orchestra‘s performance is irreplaceable , and beyond description From A corner of cherry blossoms scented Tokyo

[@NDRKlassik]

Thank you for your kind words! Greetings to Tokyo from Hamburg - where the cherry blossoms encountered some unexpected snow today ...

[@shin-i-chikozima]

@@NDRKlassik Thankyou so much to your wonderful comment Spring snow is quaint in Japan It's called Nagori Yuki なごり雪 lingering snow Please spend time for spirit Hang in there

[@NDRKlassik]

Yes, it is (or was) very picturesque here, too. :))

[@shin-i-chikozima]

@@NDRKlassik Thankyou Cheer up Good luck

[@winrx]

What a marvelous production - any chance however of 4k video in the near future....? ; )

[@NDRKlassik]

Thank you 😊 Unfortunately no, not yet...

[@user-bn7bv2zv2n]

fab@!

[@scuunjieng]

it is frustrating to me that many who lead the NYPhilharmonic don't do well there but have great careers before and after as Gilbert seems to having with the NDR.

[@elenamoldovan5813]

Mulțumesc

[@NDRKlassik]

Cu plăcere!

[@iliesko]

This is an absurd distancing of the brass from the rest of the orchestra..also the distance between players..as conductor, I would've never accepted this.

[@NDRKlassik]

Well, that was due to the pandemic of course. 🤷

[@rasdrapano]

Useless finale with a lot of rhetoric, many unwritten tempo changings

[@dudeforcaster8630]

The tempo changes are in the score.
