❤I am so happy to be able to hear the *great* Frankfurt Radio Orchestra perform on KZbin and see the audience’s wonderfully warm reception to them - BRAVISSIMO 👍

[@kestrel4733]

Fantastic performance of an immensely difficult work! As usual the camaraderie on display by this orchestra at the end during applause is heartwarming

[@alejov923]

I think this is one of the best performances of this piece on video on KZbin. Wonderful concert!

[@Scriabinfan593]

I love this piece so much. The orchestration is so colorful, I hope I can hear it live one day.

[@1lavrentiberia]

I love it.....26 minutes of violent orchestraaaaa :))) bravo HR-Sinfonieorchester....wonderful in EVERY single genre!!

[@libelle176]

Another worldclass performance by this world class ensemble!!!!!!!Again,in stunning state of the art sound and picture!!!!!!!!!!!This channel is hart to beat!

[@gth042]

I has been a long time since we've seen Sebastian Wittiber and Clara Andrada playing together ("Flute Guy" and "Clara"). Whatever the occassion, thank you!

[@MusicalJeanAz]

Have never seen them play together. What a treat plus 3 piccolos.

[@FranzKaernBiederstedt]

Einfach nur fantastisch! Was für ein höchst expressives, individuelles Werk, so enrgiegeladen, farbenreich, mitreißend, frappierend, revolutionär. Varèse war ein außergewöhnlicher Komponist, wird viel zu selten gespielt. Und dann diese hochkonzentrierte Aufführung. Es ist einfach nicht hoch genug zu schätzen, was da in Frankfurt beim HR geleistet wird und welcher Segen es ist, dass das Orchester seit Jahren so viele hochrangige Aufführungen frei online zur Verfügung stellt. Ich bin absolut begeistert!

[@user-kb3zl1wt9b]

Чудесный концерт! Большая благодарность Франкфуртскому оркестру!

[@GMahlerVerehrer]

I would have considered this kind of music absolutely terrible ten years ago. Nowadays, this piece is brilliant for me. And the performance did more than justice to the work. Many thanks for the upload!

[@successmusicvideo]

Excellent performance!

[@azstudio5118]

Amaging Extra Quoritiy, Thank You!!

[@artnishimoto]

[@staffanolofsson8201]

Some unusual instruments in this! 🙂

[@johannesfruhwein4469]

Großartig!!! ❤Ich bin so glücklich über "meine" Frankfurter. (Und ich meine damit nicht die Eintracht)

[@SilvioNobre]

💗💗💗

[@herbertdiaz3407]

Maravilloso

[@notaire2]

Wunderschöne und spannende Aufführung dieses modernen und perfekt komponierten Meisterwerks mit farbenreichen doch perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der intelligente und geniale Chefdirigent leitet das hoch funktionelle Orchester im teilweise polyrhythmischen Tempo und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Wundervoll und atemberaubend zugleich!

[@TheStockwell]

That's his job. 😐

[@The1stChair]

Composer clearly admires Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring", eh.

[@jestemqiqi7647]

Warum wird das Konzert vom 24. Februar nicht hochgeladen?

[@ondrejsedo8659]

8:39 sounds like quoting scherzo from Mahler 7th

[@tehsma]

I picture New York city in 1915 out your apartment window & steam ships in the harbor when I hear this.

[@paulkoza8652]

I am unfamiliar with the work and the composer, so I had to research this before commenting. Ameriques appears to be a very complex work that requires the full orchestra. It reminds me of Stravinsky, but only at a high level. This must have been a challenge to rehearse, but the orchestra pulled it off beautifully.

[@BTSisLIT]

May I ask what instrument that is at 3:17? I don't think I've ever seen that one used before...

[@SZ-ef9lz]

Well, it is simply a (police) siren.

[@BTSisLIT]

@@SZ-ef9lz Okay thank you. :)

[@MusicalJeanAz]

Not at all familiar with this piece. Sounds like something for a science fiction movie. Close Encounters or Jurassic Park come to mind. Fun to watch and listen.

[@paulkoza8652]

I thought the same but check out the composer and the piece. There is more to it than meets the eye.

[@ddd20120127]

🙄🙄🙄 😂😂😂

[@gabrieleevangelista2636]

Nulla da invidiare a Boulez! E dal vivo per giunta (anche se si tratta della seconda versione, quella per così dire "ridotta" sia nella durata che nell'organico orchestrale rispetto alla precedente, pur rimanendo tuttora di impressionante modernità)

[@lightspeed174]

Sorry to say, not a big fan of this music. The performance as usual was outstanding. Anyways, still love your channel.
