One of the best performances of a Boccherini Symphony I have heard or seen. Real involvement in the music. The orchestra members played with enthusiasm. Bravo!
This symphony in some passage (min 2.0) remember me the 1st movement of Beethoven 3th symphony.. Is it possible that the great Ludwig who certainly knew this symphony he was inspired by this work?
6262ronny Unlikely (and the word ‘inspired’ is absurdly over-used and mis-used all over UA-cam). This symphony was composed in 1771, the year after Beethoven’s birth. By the time Beethoven got to Vienna in 1792, it would have been a very old-fashioned work, and by the time he wrote his own third symphony in 1805, it would probably have been long forgotten. Any hints of Boccherini - or indeed Haydn and Mozart - are quite common in Beethoven as he inherited a particular musical language from the previous generation of composers which is very evident, particularly in his earlier works.
There was another symphony sounding very similar to this one and it was by the French composer Gluck. Not sure exactly the title - The Dance of the Furies? Both remarkably were composed about the same time.
Good ear. Boccherini based the last movement of this symphony on Gluck's Dance of the Furies from his opera, Orpheus and Euridice. At times, it is note for note what Gluck wrote.

I like ❤this interpretación very very much . Thanks
Masterfully done. Love the emphasis on the horns towards the end. It provides a dramatic effect.
Bellisima interpreracion.....

You need to change your music encyclopaedia - Gluck is about as French as Donald Trump!
Dance of the Furies is actually from Glucks “Don Juan” from 1761. He reused it for the 1774 version of “Orfeo ed Euridice.”
