  • Great Video!!! Thank you for putting it up. Dear KlassikFan2007 put the conductors name on the tags, his name is Paavo Berglund, one of the greatest Finish conductors ever seen.

  • @euhmamusic thank you for this information, I added it as well as the date of this concert in all clips.

  • *that

    * are you

  • You got thay whole wrong. Are you one of those trolls that do not believe what they say but just comment for self pleasure for the responses, or do are you serious about them thus i would make you a lonely man with phsycological problems or a with a girlfriend who believes that his opinion and ideology overthrows all others or a teenager.

  • Yes, actually I´m very anti semitic, now that you ask. Actually, every one should be anti semitic, until the jew stops claiming he´s superior. By claiming to be gods chosen they place themselves above the rest of humanity. Semitic supremacy is just as bad as white supremacy or black supremacy. Or did I get that wrong?

  • @stickitupyapipe Lastly, who trolls classical music on youtube? If you actually like music like this then I would assume you're intelligent or more refined than other people, but of course that's my mistake for making such an assumption, since clearly it doesn't always make a difference, as in your case.

  • @stickitupyapipe Dude, I'm a classical pianist. You have no idea what you're talking about in regards to how many times I've listened to this. It does have Mozart in it, in that it has classical elements that Mozart uses frequently. Listen to his music, it's actually an obvious comparison.

    Are you antisemitic or something? I don't like his playing, either, but who cares about him being Jewish?

    Beethoven being the greatest is a matter of opinion, also, although I adore Beethoven.

  • @throwscats Oh my god. Nothing like a youtuber passing comments on someting they heard for the first time today.LOL.

    A LOT OF MOZART IN IT??????? WTF are you on about????? This is Beethoven you retard, the greatest composer ever. The only thing this piece has in common with Mozart is that it is, .... MUSIC.

    It´s also badly played BTW. A jew playing a nationalistic German composer? Don´t make me laugh.

  • @MrYakk I very much agree with that. That's the first thing I thought when I heard this.

    And yet there is a lot of Beethoven in it--the passion, the bizarre mood swings, and the amazing virtuosity. That's why I love this piece. It's got so many Beethoven characteristics, but it's very classical--it's classical Beethoven.

  • i saw this with lars vogt and the berlin phil! amazing concert!!

  • Magic ! Just magic in an ordinary (that is to say, magical) world. Molto grat.

  • Speaking of Paavo Berglund, what does it mean "one of the greatest Finnish conductors ever seen"? I mean no disrespect to the Finns but might be it analogous to being a "giant shrimp" or a "gigantic midget"? Some background on exemplary Finnish conductors is much needed. Evidently, mean spirits have taken me over my body today.
