This piece makes me cry every time... Whoever disliked this is a fool.

I watched this so I could see how the basses would fare in this.

lol

Used to like Don and Till better when I was younger, now I like this. Mr. Carlson is a hard working conductor.

I'm attending OSU next yr as a freshman and am interested in joining..do you have to audition for this?
-
I think the theme is very beautiful, but after having a near-death experience, the thought of Death as an adversary, rather than as a Liberator, needs solving.

Great performance of this awesome tone poem! It has been years since I have heard this piece in its entirety. Bravo, Mr. Carlson!
-
I liked it when I was young because it seemed to show the essence of the life process. How, at 80, it seems very nice. check /psisig

Could have done with a real crash of the great gong at 19:29; in some interpretations with each tap the sound shimmers thru the development of the climax - real goose-bump stuff! Try a trawl of the postings to see what I mean
Its really great that you could uploaded it without having to slice it in tons of parts. It awfully ruins continuity....

@omgtkseth Yes, we are lucky to have a YouTube EDU account that gives us some more flexibility.

We're performing this with the Symphony I play in next weekend. The woodwinds here do a very nice job on some TOUGH parts. One of the hardest things to do is come in ppp on low notes on English Horn. This player did great!
I'm principal oboist of our orchestra and it's a lip-killer for oboe!~
Lots of LOUD, high parts, then very LONG, sustained parts on the end PPP.
Tough stuff.

Yes, it really is nice. I only wish we had more full recordings to put up. Will have to set some up in the near future.
