@ Strefanasha: He says that the most important thing he learnt from Furtwängler for his whole life is not to refer to Metronome as a theory, because this depends on the hall you are playing in. You have to be free to change tempo every time depending how the orchestra sounds in each moment. To play always MM=92 in Berlin Philharmonic, in Concertgebouw, in Vienna.. is an idioty
can you possibly offer subtitles? i do not know German except for a few terms picked up as a musician, and Celi's opinion is one I am very keen to hear
what if learnt from furtwängler, was one sentence, which has opened the door to my entire life, my entire exploring - as the young celibidache asked him: "maestro, how to do that, this transition in this bruckner-symphony? how fast do you beat at this moment? - he answered: "depending on how it sounds. if it sounds deep and rich, i broaden the tempo, if it sounds dry and fleeting, i have to accelerate." that means, that his attention is focused on listening, [cont]
on what actually sounds! what is actually being played! and not just some theory - 92! what's 92? - in the berliner philharmonie, what's 92 in the munich philharmoy and what's 92 in the musikverein in vienna? that's an idiocy!
