Gustavo Dudamel / SBYOV Proms 07 Shostakovich Symphony 10

[ggalexhutchings]

the sound quality doesn't seem as good as the other videos, but holy jeebus this is stunning

[padredemishijos12]

Epic performance.

[Hasfast]

Hmmm, qué pasó con este video? No está en secuencia con el video previo en la lista de reproducción, y el sonido es de menor calidad. Algún problema al subirlo?

Por cierto, muchas gracias por el trabajo, man. No es necesario extenderse sobre la calidad interpretativa de estos muchachos. Algún día los podré ver en vivo. Es casi imposible cazar una presentación de ellos acá en Venezuela sin que se agoten las entradas en horas, jajajaja. D.R.

This was absolutely beautiful. How chilling and mysteriously beautiful at the same time.

[musicactually]

it looks like the 1st and 2nd flute parts were doubled (and sat on the other side of the piccolo player), so the person who was doubling 2nd flute played the 2nd picc part out of the 2nd flute part, instead of having the principal 2nd player take both the flute and picc parts. just my guess, though.

[fong03]

That does seem to be the case. Curious that the principal second didn't take the piccolo part. It is quite a taxing piece, but I don't think endurance would have been a problem. It is a fun duet to play although I still have nightmares about that last G hehe :)

[musicactually]

i imagine they just wanted to share the part to give more people a chance to play stuff. i use an alternate fingering for the G, so it's not so scary :)

[fong03]

I remember having to cough during the concert and just holding on for dear life. lol As soon as the conductor put his hands down I coughed, and I could hear the people in the balcony chuckle a bit. I think they thought I was going to pass out . I was so embarrassed :)

[beethomozart]

spectacular symphony, alone with the 5th and the best one the 7th, the 3 top symphonic works by rissian composer Dmitri Shostakovich

[alejoeisabel]

@beethomozart Check out the 12th performed by dudamel and the teresa carreno youth orchestra.

[chameleodon]

Perfect recording except you left 5 minutes out of the piece. 3/4 and 4/4 do not connect.

La versión perfecta exceptúa la falta de 5 minutos. 3/4 y 4/4 no conecta.

[majark4]

me parece increible que recien en los ultimos años se este haciendo masivamente famosa esta sinfonia ya que a mi gusto es la mejor sinfonia jamas escrita y deveria ser tan famosa como la sinfonia fantastica o como las de beethoven

[sarafeary]

fourth part?

[OlivaxxxHatter]

I just saw them in Chicago yesterday playing an open rehearsal :D

It was AMAZING!

[xRaito09x]

Shostakovich sin duda es el mejor!

y Dudamel no se queda atras! jaja

excelente toda la pieza =)

[Rosky12]

strange, beautiful.

[Scroobily]

Far out.

[revoltz7]

lol, someone (whoever gave your comment a thumbs down) obviously doesn't like 70s hippy-esque comments ;)

[elnitrolezama]

que hermoso!!! dos picolos demasiado bueno, muyy melancolico pero muy bueno!! bien por shostakovich

[saltoangel2007]

clarinetto cuando aprendas a escribir haremos caso a tus comentarios, Se escribe "utilicen" "exterioricen". Mientras no sepas escribir tu palabra y verbo tienen efecto NULO

[ClassicalMMAChef]

Pana, crees que puedas poner la sinfonía completa?

Es casi imposible conseguir piezas completas de Dudamel en Youtube.

[nickysaxpiccolo]

wonderful. but, of course any song with 2 piccolos is gonna be good

[axel210]

song? song?

[tiredarms]

sorry... i answered before i looked... it's because the wind and brass sections share parts. they double everything but they're not "assistants" in the way professional orchestras are. they actually share solos and things... this way there's no need for them to think about the endurance factor.

[tiredarms]

because the 2nd picc part is in the 2nd flute part and the 1st picc part is separate.

[billyguns2]

Terrific orchestral playing! I love this symphony, which I think is Shostakovich's best. Dudamel gets this tempo exactly right, but I can't watch his distorted, self-indulgent facial expressions and gestures. Audiences, of course, will go wild for this.

[dabeefey]

word

[yeliao]

P#1

Strong,wild gestures by conductors and soloists go along with their personality. IMHO we have to respect that. The important line to draw is when the gestures do appear artificially exaggerated or affected. Young performers, aware of the current power of the media, sometimes tend to exaggerate and appear affected (e.g.Lang Lang). In this case, Dudamel's gestures don't seem affected to me, but part of his personality. Even the well respected Mitsuko Uchida makes gestures that seem strange.

[yeliao]

P#2

I like to close my eyes in a concert hall to concentrate on the music, and not be disturbed by exterior appearances.If I like the gestures of a performer,I may keep my eyes open. Overall,closing my eyes does allow me to focus better on music.

Richter at the end of his career demanded total darkness in the hall except a small lamp lighting the score,so the audience fully concentrated on the music,and not on gestures and grimaces.

Great performance by this youth orchestra from VE!

[clarinetto2000]

bass6981 no tengo nada contro la OSJVSB. soy venezolano y estoy orgulloso de ellos, son buenos. critico porque quisiera que fueran perfectos

[cmcas]

Al fin.. Un comentario justo.

Ciertamente maxima exigencia.

[clarinetto2000]

utilizen la mente y exteriorizen lo que sienten a traves de la musica cuando vean el edificio de la universidad lomonosov de moscu o vean imagines del bloqueo de leningrado y lean la historia y entonces entenderan shostakovich. No es necesario cambiarse la nacionalidad

[gugujazz]

buena esa diego!! clase de triunfo! ... todavia me acuerdo de las explicaciones de la musica sovietica del mismo simon rattle o de abbado en nuestros ensayos... QUE QUERRAN OTROS? QUE NOS CAMBIEMOS LA NACIONALIDAD PARA PODER TOCAR SHOSTAKOVICH??? O REGRESAR AL TIEMPO Y CONOCER A STALIN??? un abrazo diego.

[clarinetto2000]

bravo el flautin! PERO ES MUSICA SOVIETICA! ES SHOSTAKOVICH! TRATEN DE ENTENDER ESTO E INTERPRETENLO.

[bass6981]

sali muy impresionado el dia del concierto de la decima de shostakovich en el aula magna con simon rattle,fue verdaderamente impresionante,sobre todo el 2do movimiento! increible!...que ladilla con clarinetto! debe ser que el en su otra vida fue shostakovich y sabe exactamente como se debe interpretar...lo de usted ya es una enfermedad,no puede vr un video de la OSJVSB porque tiene que poner algo negativo...porque les tiene tanta mania??? que le hicieron?
