I love this performance! especially love how cooperative and devoted Berlin Philiharmonic is to the conductor who is completely new to the orchestra. I am always impressed by how Berlin Philpharmonic is focused on making the best music and open to different cultures and diversity.
Having purchased a subscription and watched this concert.....
This performance was VERY much appreciated by the audience..7 minutes of applause.
Mr. Sado takes the 4th movement ending at the proper tempo.
When Mr. Sado asked the various sections one at a time to stand...the loudest applause was for the timpanist. He practically stood up out of his chair to deliver the last dynamic, thundering strokes.
2:05 I've heard this on different recordings with either Bb or A. However, in this recording you can hear Bb in the violins, but A in the violas. I wonder which note is actually correct.
Sado makes it sound as classical music in the sense of the 1st Viennese school, as if it were Haydn. The time I heard this piece live, it was conducted by an East-German conductor, and that sounded rather differently, like a hollow, meaningless victory (cf. Testimony). I think I liked that better but I have to agree with zhibin1993 that the part at 2:44 is sublime in this version.
It's so breathtaking that it feels like the musicians of each section have the same mind! All the violins are perfectly together:o and all the orchestra is so synchronised it leaves me speechless. Bravo! Bravo Yutaka Sado, bravo Berliner.
excellent; most conductors that the final too slow (i.e. slow= profound) . Bernstein was btw, wasnt the first to push the tempo- that would be Mravinsky
Bravo to timpanist Wieland Welzel! It's well worth the price of a ticket to watch the full video. The finale is awesome. Thanks too to the BPO videographers for giving ample time to my favorite instrument.
Also -- where's Stefan Dohr??? If he sees what his dearest horn section has become after changing the first horn, he might have shot himself. Get someone to treat the first horn PROPERLY! This guy is no match to Dohr.
@mobile507 It does seem like an imitation of Bernstein's interpretation, Sado did actually study with Bernstein. But personally I find this a rather poor copy - too tame! Nothing in comparison to Rattle conducting Shostakovich 4!
@BerlinPhil He's one of the finest horn player of his generation. I think he would be perfect as the new principal horn of the Berlin Philharmonic ;-)
Please upload more short videos..! I love them so much.. And I'm too far to come to the concerts, but it's the best preview of them.. WE NEED MORE VIDEOS :D
2:16 Woops not the trumpet soloist. A little to the left. 2:22- There you go.

Sado is a pupil of Bernstein.Reminiscent if the old Bernstein recording.
But more fresh,virginal and modern. The members are playing with vitality and enjoying. Music has a vivid expression. Very nice conducter!

That is a surprisingly tame performance by the horn section. It's amazing how a section changes just by having a different first horn player.
