  • Sublime, Maravilloso, Bello, Superior!!!!, Divino!!!

  • Toscanini was very professional, He was very connected with the partiture and the all musicians, He was in perfect balance, Technique and emotions, He express Beethoven so

    deep due of his temper, Latino temper!!!!, full of emotions!!!!!

  • but will it blend

  • No, Toscanini did the worst version I have ever heard of Beethoven's symphony.

  • Here is genius of a sort we cannot fail to appreciate! Maestro Toscanini never conducted anything which he did not know as intimately and completely as the composers themselves, if not better-yet than they!

  • Bravo, Maestro Arturo Toscanini...so powerfully profound & majestically Great!!...With awesome talent you conduct your fine musicians, specially outstanding woodwinds & strings!! Thank you very kindly adorable & sublime Ludwig van Beethoven for this Beautiful mvt...!!

  • OMG?! At 5:21 I have NEVER heard the strings echo the woodwinds like that. And it sounds like THATS WHAT IT SHOULD BE! Everyone else makes those notes dramatically long as if the strings are in there own little world. It makes perfect sense to hear it played this way. In fact, I'll bet this is the way Beethoven intended it. Its as if they answer a question of the woodwinds, then they continue about thier conversation.

  • @henrykkingdom you forgot to reply to him, you're comment has no target :P

  • according to furtwangler's words,,he thought toscanini is the the german music conductor.furtwangler respect toscaini so much,u can find out the paper. anyway,they were greatest conductor.poli,i must sorry for my rude b4,i know u are music lover.u dun like toscanini may be becoz of the recording effect.

  • @henrykkingdom No, I am not Chinese. Great argument btw. Toscanini was not German either and did not understand German music and language. You can hear it in this very recording. Don't be silly.
