Keeping Score | Gustav Mahler: Legacy (FULL DOCUMENTARY AND CONCERT)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 бер 2020
- In part two of Keeping Score: Mahler, MTT examines Mahler’s creative growth, from the 1890s to his death at the age of 51 on May 18, 1911, including his symphonies, the Rückert songs and Das Lied von der Erde. The show charts Mahler’s mercurial career as a conductor, from the Vienna Opera to Carnegie Hall in New York, as well as his tempestuous relationship with his wife Alma. At Mahler’s simple grave in a Grinzing cemetery, MTT explains why Mahler has so profoundly affected his own life. Shot on location in the Czech Republic, Austria, New York, and in performance in San Francisco’s Davies Symphony Hall.
Bonus Features:
Full-length concert performance by the San Francisco Symphony of A Mahler Journey. Featuring selected movements of Mahler's Symphonies 5 (Adagietto), 7 (Scherzo), 9 (Rondo burleske), and Songs of Wayfarer with baritone Thomas Hampson. Originally filmed in high-definition 16:9 widescreen and 5.1 surround sound.

I really cried listening to sad words at the end of 9th symphony.. such doom... even his wife wasn't loyal to him.. so much pain. My heart ached for him...
"Those who love me will know where to find me". And there he found peace. Mahler wrote the poems Hampson sings in a song cycle, there is joy and there
is sadness, disappointment and desperation (I have a burning knife in my heart) , there is hope and there is hope lost
We're so proud to have worked with MTT and the San Francisco Symphony to
create this series, between 2002 and 2011. I hope it's available to
everyone, worldwide, for as long as possible. David Kennard, InCA
Productions, San Francisco.
i know im asking randomly but does someone know of a method to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost the login password. I love any tricks you can give me.
you guys are great!
When MTT asked why people cry when they hear something beautiful I cried at that very moment listening to that beautiful song he played.
We cry because beauty touches our heart and soul, there is no other way to express these emotions. Wishing Maestro full recovery.
I have been a Mahler fan for many years, but my appreciation now of MTT's work in producing such a wonderful video of Mahler's life with graphic & photographic support of his upbringing & life was sensational. Easy to understand but with such detail, it has opened my eyes to a whole new chapter about Mahler. So sad that others have such a negative and spiteful attitude & state it on a public forum about someone who has given so much that others might appreciate music and especially the work of the greatest composer ever.
53:00 what a beautiful end of a beautiful documentary about one of the greatest composers of humankind!
10:30 Ruckert lieder. Why do you think that when people hear something beautiful, it makes us cry? "I think it just wakes up feelings and emotions inside our selves that is not touched by words." Beauty makes us cry because we fear it can't last. Mahler teaches us to cherish the wonder of each moment
So grateful for MMT's incredible series, Keeping Score. As a lifelong musician it is still difficult to delve into the great symphonic works of the Western world, where to start, how to understand. Michael opens this up to us all, musician or not and it is a wonderful legacy that will live on for generations. Thanks too to the SF Symphony. The production, camera work and sound are gorgeous!
What a wonderful video. Thomas Hampson is an amazing singer. His sensitivity and pitch were spot on. Michael is an excellent teacher and a great conductor. The performances were hair raising. Mahler was a f%&king genius. I laughed, I cried, I was thrilled. Nobody today can write melodies like that. The scherzo from the 9th symphony is beyond description. I am a composer and I have no idea how he could write such a masterpiece. We all know that the last movement is a killer.
This video has increased my admiration of Mahler's personality and music, thanks for posting it
I just bought this on Blu ray because it was so good in explaining the complex and wonderful sound world of Mahler !
Please continue this series! So pedagogical! It really nourishes one's passion for x music! Thank you so much!!!!
MTT is the best at these kind of documentaries. BRAVO to you, Maestro!!!!
The concert master is brilliant
Bravo Maestro, you are truly the greatest American champion for Mahler since Bernstein. Thanks to you and the wonderful musicians of the SF Symphony.for this.
la musica de MAHLER es divina
SO MUCH LOVE YOU PUT IN TO THIS!
THANK YOU SIR!
Die zwei augen blau: I know how much that hurts. I remember when I was a kid in England there was a Pakistani boy who adored THE English rose in our class. His love was that of that of an outsider. I think that's Mahler expressed: there is no love more passionate than that of the outsider.
53:29
Really touching ❤️
Got me teary-eyed.
Thank you for offering this during this difficult time.
Unspeakable , touching beyond words !
A great respite from the pandemic days. Miss your live performances and look forward to returning to Davies Symphony Hall.
These are excellent, thank you very much
I had an ad in the worst timing:
"The 7th Symphony is zany like you're jumpcutting in a UA-cam MUSIC PREMIUM IS THE PLACE TO LISTEN TO YOUR MUSIC"
Amazing Docmentary on place, thank you
Thank you very much for this. I have loved Mahler's music since the 60s. Michael's exposition is wonderful, and of course the orchestra (and Hampson) are superb.
A mahler a day will make you work rest and play
Outstanding!! Thank you Maestro and SFO!! I watch over and over and never get tired? Why does Mahler's music speak to me the way that it does? He himself summed it up himself, when he said,"If I could say without music what I was trying to say, then I wouldn't need music" Thanks again 😊🥰
I've visited Grinzing Friedhof twice; in 2008 and 2022, I've been to Steinbach am Attersee and Maernigg am Werthersee. In 2024, god willing, I'll visit Toblach in the South Tirol to see the 3rd (and last) composing hut.
Mr Hampson's voice. WOW!!!!! I was privileged to experience Hampson/Quastoff's Das Lied (late 1990s I suppose) in that beautifully resonant hall. You're still a fabulous orchestra @SFS.
The entire Keeping Score series is beyond words. Thank you.
Ewig.
Thia is such a beautiful documentary. Thank you so much for posting it!🙏🌹👏
👏👏👏👏👏thank you for this wonderful production!
Grazie a questo video sulla vita di Mahler ho imparato di più.
No words to express this wonderful experience! Thank you!
What a wonderful respite from pandemic worries!
Fantastic movie! Thank you Maestro and SFO for this extraordinary documentary! A wonderful moment to be allowed to see the inside of Gustav Mahlers Wörtersee house! Great!!!
Simple grand. Thank you Michael and company.
What a great bonus to hear Thomas Hampson’s Lieder eines Fahrende Gesellen. Thank you for making this available!!
Watching two series of Mahler Legacy is like a treat!! Thank you so much SFO and MTT. I know MTT talked about Mahler 2 a little bit in his introduction. I was wondering if SFO and MTT can make a full movie out of Mahler 2 just like they did with Mahler 1. Mahler 2 is my all time favorite symphony.
Han Zhang second that
Yesss please
A very deep and special THANK YOU for the making & sharing of this video.
Keeping Score is a very well done and much appreciated series. MTT has truly become a great educator/spokesman of/for music & great disciple of Mahler.
BRAVO!!!
I was really sad not to see MTT and the San Francisco Symphony in London last week as part of their European tour which was cancelled because of the Coronavirus. So it's been fantastic to see MTT present this excellent documentary about Mahler!! Thank you so much SFS!!
Fabulous! Thanks so much.
I was lucky enough to hear the 7th Sym. in Princeton NJ with MTT and the SFS. In addition I heard MTT and SFS performing the 9th Sym. in Newark at the NJPAC. Brought tears to my eyes.
My deepest thanks!
Thank you! This was very high level programme and absolutely wonderful! 💗
thanks a lot San Francisco Symphony !
Thanks for this inspiring video,
Excellent presentation, many thanks for sharing!
This is phenomenal; I’m enjoying these. This one especially is great. Thank you.
Only just discovered these videos..
Wonderful to see Maestro Tilson Thomas taking up the baton if his great mentor Leonard Bernstein. Thank you Michael TT
Marvellous. Thanks to all involved in this project. I was lucky to be in Symphony Hall for the Hampson/Quastoff Das Lied in the late '90s. 'Ewig' eh? Mahler's 6th symphony has the best note in all music - the flattened 'blue' one in the horn solo early in the andante - and its finale is the greatest symphonic trip. How many times do we get off the floor after a hammer in the face? Those views behind the veil after the gong...
The orchestra is wondrous creation. This one is a belter. Bravo
Thank you
Great job by MTT in this excellent series. As a Mahler fan for more than 50 years, I found it very enjoyable. One small nitpick, however, concerning an oft repeated myth about Mahler having a "thin, nasal" speaking voice. In William Malloch's very informative 1964 radio broadcast, "I Remember Mahler," which is available on UA-cam, Benjamin Kohon, an eminent bassoonist for many years with the NY Philharmonic, including Mahler's entire tenure as conductor, relates the following about Mahler's voice: "He had a pretty good stentorian voice. You wouldn't think it coming out of a little man like he was." A stentorian voice is quite the opposite of thin and nasal. A small detail to be sure, but one that should be noted when imagining what Mahler was like in person.
I've watched this documentary on tv a couple of months ago and I really loved the piano version of the 5th and also the wonderful version of the Liebst du um Schönheit and I would love to hear the entries records of thous, I don't know if its possible.
Thanks for sharing this marvelous documentary!
Awesome
Well done
I loved it
Magnificent
Just Thank Maestro.
I'ts very nice.Thanks.
Maestro, I share your love !
The clip at the beginning from the 3rd symphony must be from the 2011-12 season. I was a student at SFCM and I remember that concert very well, especially the last movement!
Great video. MTT is a great teacher without the condescension and pomposity of Bernstein. Interesting to novices and old Mahler fans. Lots of details I'd never heard. Bravo, only Previn and the LSO programs are MTT's equal.
Great material. Would it be possible get the subtitles in many languages too? Many thanks
At 1:33:54 we see American born timpanist David Herbert playing his timpani drums in the German configuration. Amazing!
I want to thank Baritone Thomas Hampson. I like very much that the lyrics are very well pronounced and clear. I can understand every word, which is very nice. For most singers you have to guess or read on wikipedia,...
Interesting ideas about Mahler by MTT. Can't say I agree 'Adagietto is a salon piece"
Amazing...
A must-see for all Mahlerians. However, they have most certainly seen it already ... 😉
Does anyone know where I could find their recording of Des Knaben Wunderhorn with Thomas Hampson?
From what piece is the initial work of this part of the documentary?
If music were made of tears it would sound like the Adagietto.
if the music were made of tears it would sound like the 9th
Ἐνδυμίων ...that’s true...
Para mi gusto; un compositor Portentoso, amoroso, enérgico y sublime, compuso para el AMOR Espiritual entre el hombre y el Creador.
26:22
special instruments !!!
Is there a part 3?
Tilson Thomas on the footsteps of Bernstein
With the 9th symphony being The Greatest Symphony of Life and Love and Death and Everything, I take the first movement as Book of Job, the third movement as Book of Jonah, and the second movement being Ecclesiastes about vanity of life.
Anyone know the piece at the beginning
nvm its the end of mahler 3 pt 2
Correction: in 1905, Einstein published only the theory of Special Relativity. General Relativity was developed a few years later.
Please add subtitles 🙏🏻
Didn’t Hampson sing Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen with Bernstein 30 years ago?
Leland Smith Yes a very young Thomas Hampson
Yes, with the Wiener Philarmoniker. Unforgettable......
51:14 The ending of the maestro himself 😢
Hampsons German is so good you can understand every word
And now ,present one on Gunther Schuller
Is that Chuck Schumer on flute at 1:12:20-24?
Poignant ... true to Mahler.
In 1905, Einstein published work on special relativity, not general. General came ten years later. Carry on.
Doesn't matter, He finished his PhD in the same year, on a completely different topic,...🎓Einstein 1905 would be like Mahler composing about 6 sinfonies in the same year in his stolen time.
1:41:23
2:06 : Brian Cranston to the left, haha...don't know why I felt it was necessary to say that, it's not like he looks *that* much like him...
I don't know why I never understood the adulation for Mahler, haha...I mean...
10:14 I wonder why, haha...why he felt his surrounding would dictate what he could or couldn't write...
22:57 yeah, haha...I heard he was superstitious...hesitating to write a 9th symphony because composers often died after doing that, haha...
Now, haha...what I think I've noticed in Mahler, is not a dee-lee-dee-lee-dee, haha, not sure how I would write that, I think he has that ascending or descending dotted eights or whatever he likes to do...like, he does it a lot, a long succession of dotted eights each followed by a sixteenth...going up or down, etc...a bit like Prokofiev's Dance of the Knights in Romeo and Juliette, perhaps, but I actually like that one, haha...
41:50 Beauty and the Beast 1991, haha...instrumental introduction to the title song, haha...came to mind when I heard that passage...
A ridiculous number of ads
Gustav Mahler was a genius, and I feel the tragedy of his life ... nevertheless no matter whether I listen to Bach, Zappa, Ravel or Hendrix I carry their music with me for days, but this never happens to me with Mahler...
Translation Spain please
I love these documentaries, they are so motivating and amazing!!! But...the AdAzHiEtO? The pronunciation triggered me very much.
I live and breathe Mahler, all of his works. But I really don't like it when his 9th is presented as his "farewell". It really is not. The greatest for me is the 10th. I know, I know - what we have of it, is not the finished product. But to me it's at the same time the perfect closing of his previous work - and the door to something new. How I wished we knew what he would have written if he had had another twenty years of life...
It's very likely Mahler caught streptococcus from his daughter. What killed his daughter, eventually killed him, too. Streptococcus is causing scarlet fever, and also causing heart damage and endocarditis.
MTT - you brought red roses, but did you bring a pebble from the foot of the Golden Gate ?
who is listening to this cause of school
Enthält leider elementare sachliche Fehler: Albert Einstein veröffentlichte seine allgemeine Relativitätstheorie 1915 / 1916 und nicht, wie hier behauptet, 1905. Im Rahmen einer halbwegs sorgfältigen und seriösen redaktionellen Arbeit sollte so etwas eigentlich rechtzeitig auffallen.
As a Jew and a music lover from the age of ten. I cannot rationalize the rise of antisemitism. The terrible Holocaust I am now eighty and cannot come to terms. Vienna. City of nightmares😢
Like Mahler we Jews suffer greatly. We also reach the highest heights. Do not despair. Light is more sophisticated and greater than darkness. Our struggle will be worthwhile in the end.
Stay the course. Find strength. We shall overcome.

@ 28:36 in 1905 Einstein published his Special Theory of Relativity. His General Theory of Relativity would by published about 10 years later...
Bernstein!!!
How did Mahler react to his daughter’s death?
I understand that he left Alma to grieve by herself while he indulged his own pain.
Can you speak to the way he treated Alma?
So he ?over her so much he had her give up her dreams and desires to be a composer!? That is really shotty another man that needs to control women's lives. Mahler is another misogynist.
Different times.
But he wrote some good tunes...
There is another discussion list for woke people. Go there to find kindred spirits and leave serious matters to grownups.
It was a different mindset
Every person has their dark-side even wonderful Alma !
