Hmm then why are you watching it? That's what gets me. Go back to your kind of music and stop criticizing music that we here enjoy. As far as I am aware we don't go to the rock/heavy metal/ emo music that you enjoy and bash it so don't be one of those people who thinks it's cool to bash classical music. Anyways...

Wonderful performance!

that was a badass preformance!

The part 7:20 you can hear the fantastic movement of the bass. For me, this part till the end is the best, because of the bass... if you get yor ears close and keeps only the bass in mind, this music gives you a fantastic feeling!

What an amazing performance! The buildup from 7:25 to the end is incredible, especially the crescendo from 7:25 to about 7:45. Wonderful use of dynamics.

I defy anyone to listen to this mvt. of the 7th without smiling.

OMG!! I love beethoven. I have just started to listen him few weeks ago and i'm really impressed with him. I just can't imagine that he was deaf but made such a music. Impressive!! X)

after many orchestra rehearsals with a crappy youth orchestra, its finally nice to hear how this is supposed to sound and how fast it actualy goes. no jokes,we practiced this movement at one of our rehearsal at about a quarter of this speed

[mixmam1]

0:50 arguably one of the best horn moments in the repertoire

[NIBIRUROCK]

My dream is to conduct this movement

Oh my...If I weren't entirely in love with the Eroica this would be my absolutely favorite Beethoven Symphony. From beginning to end the 7th is an exuberant, melancholy, triumphant celebration. Brave, Maestro Ludwig!
