Karajan - Beethoven: ''Leonore III'' Overture, pt. 1 of 2

holy crap, when they say off stage solo they mean it :-) obviously... i just have never seen it literally done off stage, that's sooooo cool :P

Martin Kretzer klingt Fantastisch beim 7:34, es gefällt mir sehr wie es artikuliert ist.

It really is amazing. i want to ask if there is a record for Leonore I & Leonore II

I agree that Karaian is introducing Beethoven's music the best condactor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beethoven and Karajan is by far the best combination for my ears, he performs the way I think Beethoven was thinking of, I love all Beethoven´s music!!

I adore Beethoven. I have an old audio-cassette with some of Beethoven's finest works that was given to me by my grand father when I was 5...
On the tape, there is all 4 movements of the 5th symphony and Fidelio's overture. Also there is another piece wich I didnt know the name of... It turns out that it was my favorite one in the tape: I just discovered today by accdent after more than 20 years that it is Leonore 3 overture...I am so happy, Thank you granpa thank you!!!!!!

Karajan est vraiment le meilleur.
Je n'est pas trouvé d'aussi bonne interprétation que celle-ci.

Beethoven is no doubt my favorite composer but som how i actually never heard this peace before. It really is amazing.

wow... it's so interesting that beethoven held such a place of esteem for you, and you had no previous familiarity with this overture. i'm glad you've finally discovered it.

the #3 is truly one of the *quintessential* pieces of beetoven, many musicians (myself included) consider this to be his finest and most monumental overture.

Wonderful variation in texture and timbre. Beethoven was a brooding genius!
