[AbsoluteZ3R0]

Are all of the bassists in this orchestra required to play on 5-stringed instruments?

[BerlinPhil]

@AbsoluteZ3R0 At least in European symphony orchestras 5-stringed double basses are common.

[stevenj124]

May I ask which movement is this?

[BerlinPhil]

@stevenj124 It is from the fifth movement: Finale (Pesante - Presto)

[MaxxUS08]

What would it take to get one of those seats directly behind the percussion?

[BerlinPhil]

They are sold at a special price (15 €) 3 days before a concert.

incredible the quality of videos!

Berlin Philharmonic is flawless. They make this piece come alive! I like Zinmans style too. I would love to be in berlin.

[Simonius900]

Schon fast eine Art National Heiligtum die Berliner Philharmonie! Wenn man das hier hört, dann weiss man auch wieso

[poinostwister]

Wow. Absolutely stunning orchestra. I've never heard Bartok quite like this. The flute at 1:23 nearly brought a tear to my eye. Such an incredible piece.

[sportsfan1937]

[reev9759]

[gulisha520]

[sopranoandtenorsax]

Best performance I've ever heard, and I've heard many!

[TheRohBoat]

Man that quick panning starting at 1:26 is hot. Props to the directors/producers whoever did it

[ginsuchop100]

I remember playing this movement as a kid. We violas had fun strumming the 4 note pizzicato chords near the beginning.

[b286guy]

If I didn't know better, I'd say that was John Williams conducting.
