    Un Grande Abbado per un Grande Mendelssohn❤❤❤Giuseppe Perego Monza 16.2.1962 Grazie

    La più favolosa interpretazione mai registrata dell'op. 90. Non ha confronti, Karajan compreso. Inaudite sonorità, inaudito virtuosismo orchestrale. È la prova che laddove sale sul podio un genio della levatura di Abbado, non esistono più orchestre di primo e secondo rango. Claudio Abbado si situa allo stesso livello di Arturo Toscanini, con infinite raffinatezze e giustezza di accenti in più del sommo Maestro parmense.

    Grazie Maestro Abbado. Tra qualche giorno compirò 61 anni... Divento "giovane"... e riaffiorare alla memoria tante sue interpretazioni a cui ho avuto la fortuna di presenziare... un magico 1 di Brahms con Rudolf Serkin al pianoforte... il 2 con Maurizio Pollini al pianoforte 🎹 ( 3 serate consecutive al Conservatorio). Ho nella mia discoteca la Sagra della primavera... penso che dirle Grazie sia poco, ma lo dico fff perché arrivi fin lassù dove ora è Lei, cioè nella "Gloria di Dio" Giuseppe Perego Monza 16.2.1962

    i remember my music teacher in high school saying this symphony was one of the few musical creations where you could say every single note was inevitable and perfect with flawless orchestration

    • @canman5060
      @canman5060 8 років тому +9

      I think Mendelssohn Overture to the Mid Summer Night's Dream and Octet Op 20 are flawless youthful master piece. Mendelssohn himself even said that he could never produce music with such quality again in the 1840's.

      "...one of the few musical creations where you could say every single note was inevitable and perfect with flawless orchestration."
      While this is a great symphony, I would say that statement pertains even more so to his Hebrides Overture, I mean even Richard Wagner praised it calling it one of the most beautiful pieces of music we have.

  • @alena8627

    My favorite fact about this symphony is, that at 10:40 you can hear the melody from "Es war ein König in Thule" Mendelssohn used this melody to tribute Zelter (who wrote the melody) and Goethe (who wrote the lyriks) both were his teachers and both died while Mendelssohn was in Italy.

      Thanks for sharing! What a beautiful fact, never realised that. I only knew that the 2. movement was supposed to be jolly but he changed it to a sad movement because of Goethe's and Zelter's deaths.

    When you know this masterpiece from the start to the end and tries to be the conductor, the first 18 seconds makes you feel like a grand maestro with his best virtuoso violinist right at your left-hand side. Yeah, sex is cool, but it will never beat this in my book.

    Wonderful performance! :) Am I right about thinking that it was first issued in 1968? Does anybody know for sure?

      No, it was written in 1833, revised in 1834 and was first put in print in 1851

    I might be a victim of pop culture, but I can't hear this without thinking of the movie Breaking Away. Go, Dave Stoller!!!

    In case you were thinking of buying the complete symphonies conducted by Abbado, this performance is NOT in that set. I find that set mostly cold and unlikable. His earlier recordings were better.

    I expected the comments to reference the film "Breaking Away", not Barbie and the Twelve Princesses, whatever that is.I feel olde. Today is his birthday so I looked this up, its as good as I remembered it, maybe better. a truly under appreciated master of feeling and his sister was pretty hot.

      Why are you rambling on Barbie ?
      No relation between this awesome music and a silly doll !
