[David87124]

Amazing performance - pure joy:)

[fh154wv]

Does anyone know the principal Horn's name?

[SeeEssThree]

The 5:06 bass looks alot like (chef)inspecteur Cleaussau :-D

[peter92305]

The first classical record i ever bought as a teenager and fifty years on, i still love it.

[wurtsboromd]

2:48 - 3:00 makes me want to play horn.

[lexcb]

qui veulent, pardon.

[amberandaminah]

how can 7 people dislike this?!

[lexcb]

@amberandaminah Sans doute des personnes qui veuillent se la jouer pseudo-élitistes ou des retardés.

[PBlart01]

does anyone know where i can get the music for this? i want it BAD!!!!!!

[nannymac47]

A nice bassoon solo and what do they zoom in on? The oboes and flutes.

[LarryMoeCheese]

@nannymac47 Removed my last comment cause it's more like 3 seconds that the bassoon is in the focus... and they're doing relatively nothing. A bit more disappointing.

[nannymac47]

It's the Berlin Philharmonic. What did you expect? Of course the horns are wonderful. You have all the greats and too bad they got older and retired.

[bass123450]

@nannymac47 It's not Berlin. It's Vienna or so says the OPs tag.

[mjsk8er90]

4:57 to 6:04 could be illustrated perfectly by one's emergence into heaven.

[carlosroberto366]

@mjsk8er90 hey that's quite a nice perception of yours, agreed.

[dolldavis]

*sigh* Thank you! I could listen all day.

[kuribohkrazy]

how are there to many trumpets???!!!!

Theres only 4!! And there is meant to be a good strong amount of trumpets in this piwece

[NoPussyfication]

Dynamit!

[Thanovitch]

@NoPussyfication The 5 last chords sound like explosions... So, your comment, is right: Dynamite!

[NoPussyfication]

@Thanovitch

goosebumps ... isn't that what music is supposed to do. Sting said:

"five words: MUSIC IS IT'S OWN REWARD"

[jaimegranada3]

Master Piece!!!

[Dskaki]

Divine. Fucking Divine.

[silverio3333]

@Dskaki scemo



[mr170000]

3:16

amen trombones!!!

[nohaun]

we play this is my county band, its a hard piece, but its awesome to play.. its hard in the reeeaally slow area's where u gotta control and keep tempo with yourself becuase precussion dosnt play during it to hold the tempo - really good playing in here

[sireofzelda]

Does anyone know how old Karajan was here?

[DeclanVB84]

@sireofzelda - According to a source, this performance was recorded in 1985; so Karajan (born in 1908) would either be 76 or 77 in this recording.

[supernole100]

Sweet sweet ecstasy.

[shanghaidp50]

"From the new world" let me miss my country.

[flouz2]

I just love this disonance at 5:10 !!!!!!

[candcplusc]

too beautiful to turn off .... I can't even press the pause button to stop the music!

[xinkash]

great one WOOOOW, amazing

[Mateja170]

Awesome!

[Cyriatidis]

this moment is extremely beautiful...just how it builds up 4:40 - 4:51 and afterwards of course :-)

[Musicownz1997]

Nobody beats Karajan!

[jimqa2]

i came.

[electrostatic1]

4:55 Karajan sheds a tear...

[xTremera1]

Absolustely Perfect!! ...

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

Americans. You should be proud. This was written by Dvorak. This great music. It has the very soul of the black people, the native Americans and of course the great Czech people. Somehow, it seems to represent modern America with its bustle, greatness, but always with a certain amount of charm.

[k73f]

oh my god, 1:14 - 1:45 wow absolute beauty in everyway. gives me chills and goosebumps everytime...

[IZachDallen]

@k73f More like 0:01 - 6:04 absolute beauty in every way :D

[k73f]

@IZachDallen haha well yes very true, but i'm a cellist so that part is special for me :D

[davitbaruh]

thank you it is part of my youth, my life.

When i was 15 years old i heard it for the first time in a vinyl (end of 1963). I don't remeber the Philarmonica, but the conductor was Bruno Walter.

I love this symphony!!!



[ZlinForever]

Does anybody know on which DVD or where is this video ??

[rockmanu2212]

I love 0:28!!!

[robertgift]

Thank you, cock85, for posting this and sharing it with so many.

Otherwise we would never have seen this.

Thank you.

[reoparudo888]

自分が指揮者だったら、新世界交響曲は演奏します！

[contrerados]

I think the entire perfomance was extraordinary; when von Karajan conducts, that is the inevitable outcome.

[feroxia3]

can anybody please tell me that the french horn played extraodinarily well?

i darn think they did.

they were amazing!!!

someone please agree with me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CowHoofOnAHotPlate]

@feroxia3 they all did :)

[mortalfrog007]

@feroxia3 of course i agree with you but at the vienna philharmonic they don't play french horn but viennese horn! it has a thinner bore and piston valves...

[euch27]

@feroxia3 Oh my! Agreed!

[sireofzelda]

@feroxia3 Agreed! That was awesome on their part!

[IZachDallen]

@feroxia3 Of course they did, everyone did!

[hanzotk]

@feroxia3

It's only a tree. Without the beautiful forest that complements and displays it all wonderful scene...a tree will be just a tree.

[juaco9292]

Saber que voy a tocarla waooo...

me acostare temprano para madrugar a estudiar siiii

espestacular...xD

[HSEfrazear]

WOW

[contrerados]

Only von Karajan can pull these magnificent works.

[toffi22]

please make it one piece and upload it as fast as you can...

[NaomiGigi]

the best interpretation of this masterpiece I've ever heard

[Devoraak]

Oh Karajan

[irishpiano9]

Brilliant!

[sireofzelda]

I feel dumb having to ask this, but you pronounce the orchestra that is playing this? I am not good with pronunciations.

[lakshwadeep]

@sireofzelda

That name is written in the original German spelling; the more common English name is the Vienna Philharmonic.

[sireofzelda]

Alright, thanks.

[swanningaround]

This was a greeting for the "New World" from the "Old World" - primarily meant for the great Negro people. Dvorak based the music on the Negro spiritual "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" and other Negro and Indian themes. He mixed these in with his own Slavonic folk music of the gypsies and peasants, and came up, in this innocent time, with a complete masterpiece and possibly the most recognized and loved symphony of all time. It is music that all Black Americans can lay claim to and be truly proud of.

[HergotH01]

@swanningaround dont think it has especially anything to do with black... it is just a musical geniusess expression of the feeling from the "brave new world" and its people, history, everything of its time.

[swanningaround]

HergotH01. You are correct of course. That is the overriding theme. I think he has been fascinated by the folk music also, which did come from the black people. Whatever the motivation, it is a wonderful piece of music, and sums up for me at least the dream and hope which is still there even today in the United States of America. I mentioned that Black Americans could be proud of this music. Naturally all Americans can be proud of this. It IS the music and very soul of the United States.

[otherjoe1234]

@swanningaround

ironically though, when dvorak did travel to america, he was confused by why the white majority of it's residents did not embrace the native-american and african-american music that was present. he thought that because that music originated in america, it would be the kind of music that all "americans" would be listening to. of course, this was at a time when american music was still mostly borrowed styles from europe.

[246trinitrotoluene]

@ swanningaround

"all black americans can lay claim to"?

who are you kiddnig. the music is loosly based off of native themes and even looser off african american themes.

the piece is primarily written as his other more classical pieces.

don't take my word for it, check it out yourself

im still chuckling over the absurdity of your comment

[skeletonmeister]

@246trinitrotoluene :P why rain on his parade? It's not like black Americans *can't* lay claim to this music and be proud. They certainly can. So can native Americans, Scotish people, Czech people, and all people in America and also those in the "Old World" who are excited about the "New World." I think that's what Dvorak was getting at when he composed this, after all. The excitement of the "brave new world" and it's potential for a whole new breed of music.

[blackren101]

listening to this brings back so many great memories. I got to play this in high school. Loved it too. :)

[llewllynn]

I still have my part (Timpani) for this song entirely memorized from the high school orchestra days. Ah, I love this song.

[druStryker]

lol thats amazing, my highschool band is playing this song tonight, and I'm the timpani player. It's amazing for sure.

[PClaytonHuggins]

This is not a "song" A song is words (a poem, or generally speaking, lyrics) set to music. This is a symphonic "piece" of music.

If you listen closely you will notice there are no words to this music.

[toolismyfavband]

were playing this song in our orchestra

[drpeterhoff]

Saxes???!!! All Horns! Von Karajan uses eight of them, and not a single intonation slip. As for English horn, I don't think it appears in the 4th mvt, but the 2nd mvt has the most beautiful English horn solos in all creation!

[pietalpha2]

No "slips"?

This is the VPO. Like the BPO, these guys can play these symphonies in their sleep!

Karajan moulds them into a cohesive whole ,that reflects his take on the music.

Thats why he gets paid what he does and they get paid for what they do (about 1/100th of his!)

[Desmonddd2002]

Legend lengend...

[beethomozart]

beautiful excellent symphony, simply one of the best ones Dvorak used melodies from both the US , where he was living at the time of composotion 1893 and Czech republic his homeland,

[blechmusik]

In 1893 there was no Czech "republic" as it exists today. The Kingdom Bohemia exitsted formally until 1918. Well, never mind...;-)

[beethomozart]

of course I was referring to the ancestors, just avoiding to enter into history, one can resume in few words the actual name of the same region Bohemia, which alone with Moravia and Slovakia conformed Czechoslovakia until the fall of the Berlin wall, when the republick splited into 2 countries Czech republick and Slovakia, but let´s leave history for some other time and let us advocate to music, thanks!

[steelydad]

great conductor, great orchestra, wonderful recording, every amateur should watch this

[BladeLight52]

I remember hearing this song. It was used in One Piece Episode 126.

I have gotten alot of negative responses from my comment. I am telling facts.

Here is proof that this song was used in One Piece: /watch?v=Jmakd9ZDTME

[6agenthawk]

lol he keeps removing your comments! lol what are you saying? just that it was used in one piece? an awesome anime btw...

[mjsk8er90]

woww....its amazing how brass instruments add so much color to symphonies. i'm thoroughly amazed

[tatormellow]

at 0:49 is it saxes and french horns? or just french horns?

[phoolisness]

i ddnt see any saxes in the score..

[tatormellow]

do you know what instruments play there? cause it sounds so amazing!

[Shamden]

i would say it was an oboe...?

[antediluvianreptile]

That passage is played by English Horn(s) then echoed by clarinet, then again by the violins.

[23065789]

i think they're actually french horns.....

i haven't noticed any english horns in this but please correct me if i am wrong

[3215edudlooc]

5:09 ... perhaps the greatest moment in the entire symphony, certainly in the movement

[Nietopyrz360]

Really? I always find the beginning more appealing.

[phoolisness]

sure, the begining is more appealing... but thats pretty powerful stuff. not sure what i think is the "greatest" though

[Albertan1956]

von_Karajan joined the Nazi Party in Salzburg on 8 April 1933; some suggest he did this to advance his career, others say that he could have left Germany like other conductors did. Because of his decision, many top Jewish musicians refused to play with him.The lack of conclusive evidence about Karajan's personal political ideology, and apparently contradictory episodes in his life (such as his marriage to a Jewish woman ), indicate his motives for joining the party were musical in nature.

[TheHumannBee]

I'm playing this in two weeks in an orchestra festival. I'm pumped!

[maplefan94]

oh my god, so am i!!!!!

[cutencrazy07]

This is so awesome :)

[lagbaring]

The only problem with this recording is the sound a little bit hissy. Even so, it is simply incredible: Karajan was of the best conductors in the world and, for the music, there is nothing to comment but it's one of my favourites symphonies ever. I'm a great fan of Mozart and Beethoven, their symphonies are possibly even better, but, when I listen to the New World Symphony, I forget everything around me.

[thatsmagic]

Frig me, that was an experience and a half! Thats probably one of if not the best recording i've heard.

[Insanelycoolprincess]

This is so amazing

I love it :)

[phoxee]

You made this wonderful symphony available to me at a time when I really needed to hear it. I can't thank you enough! It's like the Elixer of Life to me.

[CP1985]

@phoxee Jeeez, if it's that important to you, you could've just bought the dvd. It's only $10.99 on amazon. Not much for "the Elixer of Life".

[stripe87]

The best I've heard so far :) love it!

[jjmm47]

are the horns stopping the notes at 45? cause it sounds a little like a saxophone... and i'm like what??

[ThaSchwab]

What 45? :45 in or the 45th rehearsal in the score? :S

[jjmm47]

no, at :45

[ThaSchwab]

They weren't stopping and they didn't sound like saxophones. Hmm.

[jjmm47]

well, they are showwing horns plaing the part, but it sounds more like a woodwind instrument playing

[ThaSchwab]

There was. An oboe was doubling the horn part.

[jjmm47]

allright

[3215edudlooc]

i love the sound of that doubling

[gperfect5th]

Let us appreciate the one who posted this music.

Thanks ever so much!

[BobKy12]

Wow,what an ending. Thank you for posting this wonderful music.

[plisplaiet]

es que karajan es la llet....

[eliteinvierno]

POWERFUL MUSIC

[ResidentEvil3030]

I think there are too many trumpets, but they are excellent anyway.

[ThaSchwab]

The trumpets are a vital part of this piece.

[ResidentEvil3030]

I just mean that I'm not used to too many trumpets playing that part, I am more used to the french horns playing it. I didn't say that this piece was bad with the trumpets.

[ThaSchwab]

The Dublin Philharmonic video has only two trumpets playing. Doesn't sound as good.

[ResidentEvil3030]

This is just another way to play the piece, :)

[jodycheung90]

Thanks for uploading. It's a wonderful version and I like it very much =)
