  • Esta música es tan perfecta que ignora su interpretación. No requiere ni de las alabanzas ni de las críticas de nadie, porque está por encima del bien y del mal. Expresa todo lo sagrado que existe en el mundo, que no es sino el propio mundo.

    Cualquier explicación a su belleza es inútil, las cosas hermosas no necesitan explicarse ni ser explicadas, ni siquiera ser comprendidas. El Amor es su lenguaje, y es lenguaje del Absoluto.....

  • Ich glaube, das Fernorchester dirigierte der damals noch ganz junge Giuseppe Sinopoli.

    Ich hatte als Mitglied des Staatsopernchores hier mitgesungen. Dieses Konzert ist unvergesslich! Danke lieber Lenny!!!

  • your not a real conductor if you dont sweat waterfalls like Lenny does =D

    we miss you Mr.Bernstein<3

  • @Bbobe900000 And let's not talk about Haitink with the horrible horrible Gwyneth Jones.

  • @Bbobe900000 I believe you are incorrect. I've listened to Tennstedt and it doesn't even como close to the grandiosity achieved by Bernstein.

  • Why is it that after listening to this glorious piece, I dream about it every night?

  • @ClassicalMusique1 agreed ! 2possibilities : 1) all the people in the room were left completely in awe and could'nt even clap because of their emotion 2) it's a very bad audience full of idiots

  • Everytime I try to listen a different version of this finale I stop the video after few minutes, coming to the Bernstein's one.
