I agree! I used to have this recording on an LP from that year. I like it better than any recording that followed at a much faster speed. This is so wonderful!
I remember having to spend a boatload of money to purchase the box set. And now... We get to watch HVK perform the entire set for peanuts. Always appreciate, never take for granted. A true blessing.
Both playing and conducting this must be a mental and physical marathon. I can't believe how Von Karajan does this without the score and without eye contact.
I think that’s what makes it even better, he has his eyes closed to see the music happen in his head, then he expresses the music through his movement.
Karajan once said he had a photographic memory. You need to watch some of his rehearsals as well. He was a great teacher. And boy could he sport tails!!
Beethoven was obviously in a bad mood when he wrote the stormy 4th movement of this symphony. The energy, which is already present in this movement, is simply incredible and captivating. And then brilliantly conducted by Master Karajan. Ingenious!
@@Bowie525 No, i mean the 4th movement of the 7th symphony. Beethoven's emotional states and personal struggles are well documented, and it is known that he grappled with mood swings and emotional challenges at various points in his life. Therefore, it is quite possible that he was in a bad mood, but he may also have been experiencing exceptional euphoria when he composed the fourth movement. Due to the powerful, rather stormy, almost angry character of this movement, I have always suspected that he was in a bad mood that time. ;) Even Friedrich Wieck (the father of Clara Schumann) once remarked that "this symphony could only have been composed in an unfortunate - intoxicated state, namely the first and last movements."
@@Pumbaa_2009I think like that as well, compared the other movements, we can feel de stormy psychology of the 4th, but as you mentioned it made the symphony more emotional and intense in a way and it's incredible "Sacris Solemnis" song has written on this movement and sang by boy choir, I really recommend that version as well
Es increíblemente bella, como si fuera la séptima sinfonía de Beethoven y, sí, Karajan le trasmitía una agresividad y fuerza a la interpretación que la hacían única. Pero, por encontrarles peros, por qué tan pocas tomas de los músicos? Por qué tan pocas tomas abiertas? Por que tan centrados en el director y no en el conjunto? será porque no había ninguna mujer entre los músicos? A lo mejor así habría abierto los ojos.
I think its because karajan is generally super photogenic compared to the orchestra around him. Also its nice to focus on the insterments making the beautiful sounds instead of associating a face with said instrument. Its also a primitive music video so its more meant for cinematic feel. But im glad you enjoyed it!
A eso agrégale que al parecer Karajan era un poco "egocéntrico". Él supervisaba las fotos que le tomaban y si no le gustaba, no salía además de asegurarse que en la mayoría de los álbumes apareciera KARAJAN en grande y los campositores con una letra enana
I've never heard a better performance of Beethoven's 7th symphony than Karajan's.

he IS music. so happy to find it here
The key is to get the horns to SCREAM at the top of their lungs in the 1st movement.

Every time its brilliant
10:31 that crescendo is amazing 🤩
This recording is fantastic. The energy in some parts, as movement in 1 and 4, is gorgeous
KARAJAM insuperável ! Sem partitura e de olhos fechados ! A melhor compreensão de Beethoven!

lovely, thank you for uploading this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Danke 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Gracias por subir ésta obra maestra inmortal, patrimonio cultural de la humanidad. ❤
카라얀의 바그너 연주도 최고지만 베토벤교향곡 하면 역시 카라얀 이네요
카라얀님 지휘봉을 든 오른쪽 옆얼굴이 더 멋져요 왼쪽 옆모습은 젊어보이지만 앞모습을 보면 정말 예술입니다.
냉철함과 고집스러움 그리고 곡을 완벽하게 내면화한 깊은 눈빛
정말 경이로워요 ❤❤❤
Tempi velocissimi! Magnifico!!
I'll always wonder what maestro Karajan imagined with those closed eyes while conducting... amazing.
Simply amazing!
King Karajan.

Dreadfully mundane camera-work! 🤔
@@monsterjazzlicks i have to disagree
@Bowie525 Are you joking or just trolling?
The structure of the musicians is a bit nightmarish. And some women are needed
You're calling "the structure" of the very best orchestra in the world "nightmarish"?!? FUCK OFF, with your PC bullshit!
