Bought last minute tickets to see him this weekend, hyping myself up :)))
The rare conducter who has a mutual respect with musicians.
it's called being diplomatic:-) he could have been a polititian. ( also , myself included, the truth is musicians dont' know much about conducting, so they focus on personality and as of late looks and youth more and more. it's sad...at least we got lucky with Sir Rattle)
Absolutely loved this! ❤
No words to him .
“Some things get better with time”
He is belong to Maestro.Karajanism😼, as like to do with Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathustra".
It leans towards a true Dionysian-Apollo amalgam nihilism, the polar opposite of Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathustra," which is a false gloom and dampness. He leans towards the true Dionysian-Apollo amalgam nihilism, the polar opposite of Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathustra," which is a false, gloomy, and humid thing. And that's fine. He's not a fake.

I discovered Sir Simon when I was a freshman in college (just as he was blossoming with CBSO) and he has been a BIG part of my musical journey thru life til this day.
He is power, passion, love, inspiration, wisdom, thoughtfulness all wrapped up in a true musical genius.
Thank you Sir Simon for all the wonderful music, and looking forward to the next chapter.
6:18 Simon Rattles says: - "Our world divides into people who are supremely confident and those who have doubts every day. I am on the doubts every day team. Probably just as well. It means you don't take too much for granted .But of course it makes it hard. This is a hard profession and it doesn't get any easier. You have to get used to that and you have to do the best you can and realize that that is the best you can do." One wonders if he is speaking purely about the world of music or the world in general. Whichever way how could one speak more profoundly?
+David Watermeyer Honestly? I don't think that's profound at all; I think it's a drastic simplification of human nature. No one is supremely confident all the time. Even the most confident of people experience plenty of self-doubt, unless they a genuinely psychopathic.
I tell you what he means he hates TALENTESS middle class upper USELESS who get the jobs with out WORK ! OH GOSH ! I loathe them ! disgusting ! hence Mozart . well done fellow Scouser
Thank for write it,I was going for a piece of paper to write, but I see that you already wrote it ,:)
@@DodderingOldMan you clearly never met young ( or old) conductors. Sir Simon is a diplomat. he says what all celebs say to seem modest. perhaps he is modest, dont know never met him, i have met though close to 800 conductors in my life and boy, are you wrong, Sir...
Sir Simon rattle is definitely one of the greatest conductors I've ever seen , still to this day I definitely see him conductin orchestras today.
A hail to an extraordinary musician and man!
'Roddy' Williams conducted one of the choirs in Kingston upon Thames, SW London that I was a member of for many years
This was great. Thank you.
Mo.Sir.S.Rattle!

Bravo !!!
MAGNIFIC
bravo!
You have "schooled" imparted just what is needed for another Simon to "push the boundaries of Music" - especially to introduce to the world the sound from LIVING the Bible,that it needs to hear again-differently! Being a Simon- and hearing is our meaning,I am a lover who must do this-conduct The Heavenly KingdoMuseek-our "Grand Finale' Movement"!
Many thanks,continue to love through your conducting! My love be with you in Christ!

WOW!
The "asian" music you heard actually is a very famous traditional Chinese music call "the spring of Yangming " . Yangming is a mountain with altitude raging from 200 to 1200 meters. It is a national park named "Yangmingshan National Park" located at Taipei suburb.
+Alex Lin Thanks for the info.....Lovely score
What a wonderful production! Enjoyed every moment of it! Thank you
With Rattle, you also get Shake and Roll, at least according to the prophetic sources of 1910's 'Baby' Franklin Seals and 1954's Big Joe Turner, along with Bill Haley & His Comets. I'm glad to hear Bruckner's 7th performed in Taipai, as the rising sun opening melody of its first movement mirrors the sunrise over the Pacific Ocean that the East Asia nations experience.
Loved this documentary! Thank you for sharing it!
I'm always amazed that classical music seems to be so much more appreciated in Taiwan.
In Germany it's a small "elite" that even bothers to take it's time and get acquainted with it. I wonder why that is.
Leben Sie in Taiwan bzw. Haben Sie in Taiwan gelebt? Ich, persönlich nicht. Ich habe dort nur zwei Wochen verbracht und habe ja nicht den besonderen Eindruck gehabt, die Taiwanesen hätten ein Interesse an westliche klassische Musik!
Ich habe aber auch als Franzose in Deutschland fünf Jahre lang gelebt und im Gegenteil, ich war sehr erstaunt, als ich sah, wie groß das Interesse an klassische Musik bei den Deutschen ist, sei es bei den Jügendlichen oder bei den älteren Menschen. In anderen Ländern wie Frankreich, Portugal, Spanien, Malaysia und Vietnam, wo ich auch gelebt habe bzw. immer noch lebe, ist das nicht so.
Meine persönliche Meinung ist: Man darf diesem Dirigenten nicht alles glauben, denn als ich in meinem Kommentar schrieb (ua-cam.com/video/EY2z1xkxw70/v-deo.html&lc=Ugzc5dxsPNFZDjmmNi94AaABAg), ich habe den unangenehmen Eindruck, dass hinter Rattles Wörter, steckt sich eine kranke Denkweise.
it;'s all marketing now. everywhere. youth, sex-appeal, rock-stardom and image. so there...

Is possible anyone tell the name of that "asian" music that starts at 15:29? Thanks and Thank you very much for post this amazing documentary

I was privileged to see the making of a great conductor when Sir Simon Rattle conducted the Birmingham symphony orchestra. He will always be remembered as one of the great world orchestra conductors. Well done, Sir Simon!
Es un genio un Titan un orion
28:48 - What piece are they playing (practising)?
Tippett Concerto for Double String Orchestra
Young Thomas Adès in the inauguration looks almost exactly like Graham Chapman doesn't he?
Yes, I had the same thought.
Where I can find a video of them? How's the orchestra called? LSO AND BPO
Both
what is the symphony played 40:15?
What is the piece in the beginning?
wisnu1231 it's Bruckner Symphony No. 7... So epic and lovely... 👌🏻😉
Ah so it's Bruckner's 7. I've never heard bruckner's symphony apart from the 8th.
Arash Raassi hi Arash, do you know the piece that at 0:33?
+Yanming Cedirg Zhang: It's Brahms 1st. The ending of the development of the first movement leading back into the recapitulation.
@@arashraassi what movement is it
25:30 Did he say that the music of Harry Potter is garbage?
I've been learning English but I couldn't catch that clearly.
+LACO777alessio Thanks :)
What he calls garbage is the music going on all the time in his head. Definitely not disrespecting the Harry Potter music.
No Ružička in , no left hand to give , no right to give, no red rouge on mouth to wear because of smile , without a sound on back do not agree with three on dire after life in maestro hand, my son. little as he was made my life more potent in front for future more like in blade, ballad in did. Great maestro and great music make my journey for them more jazzy on ends , more interesting for female in both, hands, more daughters. Thank you
Could somebody please tell me the name of the symphony they play in 36:16?
Thanks.
Brahms Symphony No 1
@@Dimivim Thank you.
🙏🏼Praise Maestro Simon Rattle 🙏🏼
I was very excited and satisfied by the election of Sir Simon Rattle like music director of Das Berliner Philharmoniker, but after all these years a great feeling of dissatisfaction and disappointment made think how wrong were the musicians picking up a musician never took the orchestra to the level left by Abbado forget to Karajan. A sadly lost time! Bad Beethoven, Brahms, Schubert, Schumann...
Ivan Hernandez Your comment interests me a great deal. You have said much, & I appreciate it. But could you elucidate, perhaps w specific examples, say (& I’m just giving possible examples) his Mahler, Beethoven, Mozart, Bach truly bad?? Is this what you mean? What I mean is what is he lacking? Depth, musicianship, what, exactly? Thanks in advance for considering my request. PS. Do you like Carlos Kleiber? PPS. Do you like Peter Sellars? What about the dramatised Bach Passions? The public we hear say they were incredibly moved. I personally find it abit distracting from the music being played.
so stupid
I disagree . I liked Abado very much but Karajan no . He squandered much, making films of his own conducting, hired young singers and burned them out rather than more seasoned singers with minds of their own. He was not particularly communit minded and his recordings are a little dull : loved legato and overdid it . I'm sure you disagree but that's my point . Tastes differ. Rattle his beethoven is a bit fiery for traditionalists . I love his Brahms Mahler esp symphonies 2 and 9 and his Benjamin Britten is superb .
Can anyone tell me what is the piece in 0:33?
Yanming Cedric Zhang Brahms Symph 1
thanks!
What Simon did with the CBSO shows that he is as good as Karajan, while at the same time a totally different type of conductor.
Simon is also a great admirer of karajan
Please someone to say me what is the name of the piece at 0:03 to 0:18 - 0:25 .... :/ Its so powerful !!! ....

Oh my god peter sellars! Darling loud shirts and hair electrical
and at the end of the day, that's what it's all about
1:29 " its actually what bargin do you make with the devil" thats weird
Sir Simon is great conductor
"His ears are enormous... like an elephant," inferring the size of the apparatus equals superior quality. At first, I was skeptical - a seemingly ignorant understanding of sound... and then I ate my words very soon after. Elephants indeed have a huge sonic range, can hear frequencies 20 times lower than humans and are only second to the moth with a hearing frequency of up to 300 kiloherz, hearing 150 times more than us and can even hear 100 herz above a bat. So anyway, Rattle, you must hear pretty damned well!
thankyou
one percenters
God I have not met him, yet I feel as though I know him...

Gordon Ramsay or music 😂😂😂
That's funny , because I have Both of them Simon and Gordon 😂
Who said the London Philharmonic is one of the greatest orchestras on earth? I've heard they are stiff and inflexible. Very English.
hohaia rangi
A very foreign comment
your attacking their nationality negates the validity of your otherwise correct comment.
@@classicalperformances8777 the statement is correct, with or without the bigotry.
He really knows shit about taiwan and mainland china!
No depth to the program. No discussion on why he is good, no deep analysis of any composer. I've no idea how good Rattle is in comparison to other past greats, like Klemperer, and Von Karajan.
A bit like my own view of Rattle. He is an outstanding director of musicians and a superb orchestral trainer. As an exponent of composers, musical architect or interpreter of the great orchestral works it's a different story. Next to Karajan and Klemperer (or "living greats" like Haitink or Barenboim), he just doesn't compare.
Next to Klemperer?? Really? Rattle can conduct circles around Klemperer. Even before his stroke, Klemperer couldn't touch The Rite of Spring (or anything by Stravinsky), and couldn't handle anything after the late Romantics.
disagree......on all of what you just written....hey! Don't like him ,but he is just as good or better in things...He compares.....come on...
@Composer Guy. Klemperer's repertoire may have been more limited but he excelled in what he did. I'm not convinced that Rattle is anywhere near as good as the hype would suggest. An example would be the recent video (Y.T.) of his "Firebird" with the L.S.O. - quite ordinary and pales beside my favourite Ozawa/ODP. Another example was a recording of Sibelius 2nd symphony which left me totally underwhelmed. Kletski's recording with the Philharmonia blew him into the weeds! I'm certain he can give outstanding performances at times but for me he is very inconsistent.
Zepellin1gaz: Really? You honestly need someone to tell you? Just open your sodding ears, listen and form your own judgements you fucking jerk....and yes I do know it's about more than a one-off sound...just learn to make your own critical decisions, right or wrong, whatever that may turn out to be...
Orchestras need to tuned to 432 Hz.
+Kylie Jordan where on earth are you from?
That wouldn't solve anything. They made a cvasi-opera with Bach's music, which is a very idiotic idea. That shows conductor's lack of musical understanding.
Im having a hard time to make an agreement in BBC's documentary to that conclusion that he now is the best just because the best have died long ago. Maybe the making of a maestro would fit better or the life of Simon Rattle. And even with the orchestra?? Its just one of the best but not the best. Try competing with VIENNA, HARVARD & JULLIARD. Furthermore, making comparison between LEONARD BERNSTEIN and SIMON RATTLE, I would vote for Bernstein to be the best regardless of generation.
Maybe you're right about Simon Rattle, he may not be THE best but he certainly is among the best. But you're definitely not right about the orchestra. The Berlin phil are undoubtedly the best orchestra in the world. Vienna and maybe new york rank somewhere at the top of the list, but Berlin are definitely at the no 1 spot.
@16:10 ~ 16:40
Well, until not that long ago, I have been wondering why Sergiu Celibidache had always kept telling that conductors would be the most ignorant people in the music field, like on this interview ua-cam.com/video/SkMEK7u0fAI/v-deo.html
And nobody could give me any explanation. But now I have just understood why.
So when Simon Rattlesnake means, Mainland Chinese would have no interest in classical music, this is not true as anyone can see:
ua-cam.com/video/QNbmioI8e1Q/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/YkjslTWxA0Q/v-deo.html
It is just, that it is CHINESE classical music, not WESTERN classical music.
But I suspect Simon Rattlesnake to speak with a forked tongue and I have the bad feeling that behind his words, we have to see a kind of white supremacist western superiority complex, whose words' true signification is "Taiwanese are good people, it must be cultural and this is why they are so westernized and thus have interest in our western superior repertoire, whereas the Mainland Chinese are not westernized and thus, ar e dumbasses!"
So, Sir Rattlesnake, you have proven yourself to be among the most ignorant conductors in the music field!
Simon Rattle, a Maestro ??... Maestro is Herbert Von Karajan, Seiji Ozawa, James Levine, Bernard Haitink, Charles Dutoit.
But Rattle ? Berlin Philharmonic is not for him.
He did a lot here in Berlin. Opened up the repertoire - not only to modern music but e.g. to Sibelius. He is a great advocat of Haydn (what I understand) or Schumann (what i understand less). He made great "Late Night" programms on some saturdays (10:30 pm), performing niche music like the Winterreise-version of Zender for just 15 Euro on all places. He really developed - his first Bruckner symphonies weren´t great but with the years he got better and better with them. His 9th, with the 4th movement of SMPC which he highly advocates, was just stunning. His Beethoven 6 and 7 were really interesting, the passions of Bach extremly moving. And I´ve not even talked about Mahler... There are too many highlights to mention.
He may be a great conductor, but there's something annoying about him. Is it just that he's British?
+mold Or is it that hair?
I think it's you
