Schvartzman - Brahms Symphony 2 Movement 3

[wolcott5]

It seems like this was something he conducted as a requirement of a conducting degree or for a conducting class as he looks to be quite young and is conducting a conservatory orchestra. That would at least explain why it's just a movement and not the entire symphony.

[lizmizerik]

this kind of looks like a high school and most high schools do not have time for full symphonies but that's just a guess

[jewish1972]

i dont think he has begun with the 3rd mov., only that they have put it here instead of the others.

[bowiedj]

so, the conductor start the music right from the 3rd movement? not from the very start? I can see that he shake the concert master's hand before beginning this piece....
