PLEASE, please, please: tell this man to listen to his greatest enemy, how he performed this piece of Music in Berlin or Vienna, with "his" Philharmoniker. Tell Barenboim to listen to Karajan.

@edcassels i completely agree. It's like they backed off literally as the climax was happening. I think that was because they played some of the development of the piece too big, and I felt the same with the prelude. Too many changes in dynamics, instead of a big build up. I feel like this was a little fast, though better than the prelude, it just needs more cantabile for me. Any great soprano would take their sweet time with this piece.

It's nice to see Maestro Barenboim not over- conduct this work and let these young musicians play the notes off the pages for themselves. However, from the subito piano at 4:38 up until 5:00 and thereafter, the music doesn't reach the intended climax that it should. It's much to kind and gentle and doesn't evoke the emotion that it most surely could.

Este concierto lo estuve escuchando por la radio en directo, ese mismo día, y fué algo increíble.
