I used to think so too, but now I'm starting to get annoyed by his dragging tempi. Still undoubtedly one of the masters of the twentieth century though.
With the earlier Mozart symphonies I can agree with your regarding his slow tempos. but from nos.36 onwards Bohn is magnificent and do I find his tempos excellently chosen. Having compared him with other great Mozart conductors like Szell, Klemperer, Karajan and Walter I do think Bohm remains the standard for the last bunch of Mozart symphonies.
@@youtubewatcher8982 imagine thinking conductors do nothing, why people prefer different recordings is because of interpretation, and guess who interprets a piece? The conductor
13:20 is one of the most beautiful parts ever in a symphony. Its especially good when you can watch the violinists feel the power and emotion as they play. Mozart had hidden gems everywhere in his music. He was not just a playful composer. He was a serious one. Beethoven himself adore him so much he attempted to take Mozart to greater heights as if he was still living.
Sans doute la symphonie de Mozart que je préfère… d’une magistrale beauté, distillant avec raffinement et panache le suspens où elle nous mène, nous guidant au fil des rues à la découverte d'une ville nouvelle, comme une promenade sous la neige. Savourer, respirer le lieu, regoûter à la vie, nous promener dans Prague à travers les yeux et l'élégance de ce sacré Wolfgang ; voilà ce que nous promet cette symphonie. Écoutez Mozart quand il neige… plus pur encore ! Sous la direction de ce cher Karl Böhm, qui consacra sa vie à la musique de Mozart.
È un' esecuzione che dimostra estrema padronanza musicale in ogni componente dell' orchestra Böhm è riuscito così a rendere completamente grande questa sinfonia mozartiana
Back at you! But I probably listen to Brahms more often than Mozart in case that makes any difference to you. I love the finale's of his 1st and 4th Symphonies.
All right, Johannes Brahms is another genius. But it is unfair to think only of some. There are so many masters: Haydn, Nielsen, Schubert, Dvorak, J.S.Bach, Grieg, Tchaikovskyi, Beethoven, and many more as far as symphonies are concerned. And if we talk about other styles and genres, we would lack time to flatter them.
Neilsen's 3rd Symphony is one I have long loved. That and his 1st are the best he ever composed, IMO. The last 3 seem to have been to strongly influenced by his bitterness about being less popular than Sibelius outside Scandinavia.
lol, that is the slowest "presto" I have ever heard in my life. Bohm, a.k.a., Mr. Slow, was really out of it a lot of the time when he chose tempi. That barely even qualifies as an allegretto.
@@cziffra-eg9st At the other end of the speed spectrum, listen to this: ua-cam.com/video/u2PIW13pM7I/v-deo.html . Now which one sounds like a "Presto" to you? There are other recordings on YT which are between that one and Bohm's. I know it is supposed to be a very difficult movement to perform, although I doubt that's what stopped Bohm from playing it faster.
@@MaestroTJS the speed Presto is a spectrum in itself. An allegretto would be even slower, so your original argument is rather ridiculous. The movement also works under this tempo, so I dont see any problem
il peggiore direttore d'orchestra che abbia mai ascoltato Riesce a fare diventare noioso Mozart! la sua interpretazione del finale e' terribile, favorisce il sonno
Bohm's performances of Mozart's symphonies are the gold standard.

Conductors do nothing, it’s the musicians of the orchestra. That’s what I hate about orchestras, all the credit goes to the conductors.

The ideal Mozart conductor.

Listening to this Mozart's masterpiece from Prague!
Fantastico🎉🎉🎉 Rest in peace Grande Maestro Karl Bohm ❤❤❤❤❤❤Giuseppe Perego Monza 16.2.1962 Grazie
Ain't there no words to this Dave?
karaoke version Del
C'est toute magnifique. Marra Amedeo.
At 6:23 how does anyone put that into words.....
Mozart inevitably follows up what he 'plays'.
La más hermosa de las sinfonías de Mozart.
I'm more inclined to go with the 40th but this is definitely close to the top of the list.
The important thing is that we both like Mozart. Greetings.

Interpretazione storica ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Giuseppe
I prefer to play this at 1.1 speed. It makes for a more fluid experience in my opinion
Don't go to Bohm, then

Idk if Alfred (not Albert) Einstein said this, but the first movement of the Prague must have been the precursor to the finale of the Jupiter.
You put a bit of music on dave?
It's a karaoke version. Trigger.
Have you put a bit of music on, Dave?
It is the caraoke version, Del.. Brilliant.
Evviva 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Giuseppe
Ci sono esecuzioni come quella di Rudolf Barshai che è ancora più bella

Mind if I make some comments in JAPANESE?
You can comment in any language you prefer.

It makes it perfect for 13:20. Which is why it was probably done.
Ah sorry you meant final movement
how is this slow in any way
