And You know what? It's so interesting to compare the same music with the same conductor but with differents orchestras: this European, "Berliner philharmoniker" performance and when Gustavo Dudamel conducts the Simon Bolivar Orchestra at the Proms Festival.

I cant stop watching and listening.

I did the same - so, I know the difference. Better say, I FEEL the difference.

I was also not able to stop listening some time ago)

[Otosalaptabor]

Thanks a lot! I like a lot, good quality.

Great humour, deep feelings, la vita!

[kwertmil]

You're welcome! I share your emotions:)

@javilack The Berlin Phil version is a more "technical" version, and the rhythm flows more technically; but the Simon Bolivar Orchestra the rhythm flows naturally, spontaneously; they play an inherent rythm of their region - so to me the Simo Bolivar is enjoyable as well from that stand point. The Berlin Phil brings a different phrasing, even the violin solo, a very classical approach that I also enjoy. They are both equally enjoyable, not one better than the other.

¿No es chistoso ver a un germano tocando la guacharaca?

The trumpets were a litttle overpowering in certain areas for my taste

personally i liked the Simon Bolivar Orchestra's performance more

i got to play this for the texas all-state band :)

@Otosalaptabor I completely agree with what you are saying. I definitely felt the difference. In my opinion I like the Simon Bolivar Orchestra performance better. I felt that it was more dramatic.

@Caramellatta they really applauded! I also couldn't believe it. But it is sort of an "informal concert", isn't it? They probably couldn't "dare" to do this at the Philharmonie :)

Antes de Dudamel el Danzón No. 2 de Márquez sólo era conocido en México. Gracias a este excepcional director venezolano el mundo ha conocido esta maravillosa pieza. Desde Berlín hasta Taiwán, Madrid y Los Ángeles. Genial Dudamel!!!

[pieldelcielo]

No sé... Pero creo que los músicos realmente estaban disfrutando lo que interpretaban...

[Caramellatta]

Wow, some people actually applauded at 6:41 . It can also happen in Berlin!

although I prefer the energy of the Simon Bolivar version, I was able to notice many more details and colors in this performance, like how beautiful the oboe part is. It's also interesting that the piano plays with the piccolo solo ( 3:24 ). Marquez writes it that way, but many conductors give the part only to the flute.
