I was in attendance all weekend for his 70th birthday bash, and I see myself in the audience standing at the end screaming in appreciation. The shed was electric for that performance. He noted in the PBS broadcast that he had not conducted the 5th in many years before that afternoon. Thankfully, we have his recording with NYPhil. Miss you, Lenny!
Il GRANDISSIMO Maestro Bernstein conclude sontuosamente la Sinfonia 5 di Tchaïkovsky, ha una perfetta padronanza della partitura, sa liberare tristezza e gioia senza cadere nel pathos. Anche attualmente i direttori che padroneggiano questa partitura sono pochissimi, 4 o 5. Non c'è bisogno nominarli, lo spettatore li conosce. GRAZIE MILLE al Signore che ha pubblicato questo finale.
@Bruce T No. That's Shostakovich Symphony 5 in Japan!! There is a Boston Symphony Tchaikovsky 5th Live From Tanglewood with Bernstein conducting on a DG 2 DVD Set Cat. # 00440 073 4511, from the summer of 1975.
I feel the greatest appreciation for L. Bernstein, but I guess, that if he wasn't such a heavy smoker, he could have lived,at least 10-12 years more. His fatigue is obvious at the coda of the finale.
You're certainly right. I think he could've seen the 21st century. Just as much, though, as the baton is the extension of his arm, his towering legacy is the extension his life, even after his death. He was certainly one of the most influential people of the 20th century.
Indeed. It's a bit strange that, his mentor and colleague in the NYPh. Dimitri Mitrópoulos,(born in 1896), incessantly "cultivated" the same habit, which literally caused his death aged 64, at La Scala, Milan.
Say what you will about Bernstein and if, you read the new biography of him by his daughter, there is a lot to say that is not always nice. But the guy loved music and brought an unbelievable passion to it. He could have conducted this piece in his sleep but look at the intensity. Amazing.
I hear the great Koussevitzky, his teacher. What beauty and passion! Please issue the entire performance- at least release it in audio format. Thank you.

I was there for his 70th birthday performance. It was amazing! Very fortunate to have experience this which I will never forget.
The personification of Music. Maestro Bernstein, may God have You in Glory ❤️

Il miglior musicista del 900! Grazie Maestro!
Lenny was beyond great. Love him forever. ❤
Nobody gave more to a performance (metal, physical, emotional) than the great Bernstein.
Georgiev did
The conductor is so passionate about music!
Amazing❤️🙏🇨🇦
The best Version.
Among the great conductors, I respect them, appreciate them and enjoy them all, but Lenny was the greatest.
That has to be the late great Vic Firth playing that timpani roll at the very end ! RIP, Vic
Thanks for uploading!
I wish this entire performance was available!

@Bruce T Shostakovich 5 does not equal Tchaikovsky 5. Nothing "similar" to the two different symphonies at all.
no
@@hootenhtn no
Amazing💙💙💙
Ah Lenny ! What days those were.
YES.
Very moving.
素晴らしい名演！！！
MIRACLE🎉

Wow, well that intensity could have knocked out even a much younger man. The way he conducted, it's one heck of a physical workout.

As you would agree, Maestro Bernstein's personal life ain't nobody's business but his own.

ua-cam.com/video/w2JBT0HC98I/v-deo.html All of it. Brilliant.
@@zolochnaya It's not the same performance. Your link refers to a concert in the 70s.
I mean, 4 years ago you wrote this comment. But now I found the recording of the whole concert. ua-cam.com/video/UOmRIlwwFQc/v-deo.html enjoy!
@@porcepic44 Also for you, I found the right one :)
Nothing like P.I.T's Fifth to send Lenny into paroxysms..
Too much
