it’s SO SO SO GOOD and so absolutely underrated...this symphony is utter perfection, love, life, and bliss . especially the 3rd movement I can’t get over it
As an Indian. I feel profoundly indignant at such a blithe oversight of Gandhi. But I'd probably - with reservations - concede to him being in the top 10.
I have loved the 8th since I was a child. It is the most colourful, passionate and energetic one. Even if the 100 singers in the 9th throw rocks at me: it is half as good as the 8th.
Wonderful symphony including a loud moment with piccolos that almost interrupts like a second or two of a tea kettle whistle, and of course one of the best conductors and symphonies in the world.
Also Beethoven's Symphony No. 6 (first and last movement) is filled with joy, which the composer unfortunately enjoyed so little. Greetings from Czechia.
One of the best performances, so beautiful and terrific! I so lave this Simphony! Thanks divine Conductor Zubin Mehta and excellent Israel Philharmonic Orchestra!
I've developed a Beethoven obsession in recent years, and I've come to the conclusion that my favorite symphony is whichever one I'm listening to, tho the 9th is in a class by itself, and I was fortunate to attend a live performance of it by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra last year, a once in a lifetime experience!
The best Beethoven's Eighth I've ever heard. A true great performance! Mehta is one of the very few non-germanic conductors who catch up with the beethovenian symphonic essence.
Honestly does it get any better than this? Beethoven composing, Maestro Mehta conducting, the Israel Philharmonic playing, and of course Guy Eshed on flute :-) sorry I am a huge fan lol. Thanks for sharing this with all of us Heidi in Atlanta
Maestro Beethoven is a God. What he did will live as long as humanity exists.! I wonder if he had any concept of how important he would be to the world? A wonderful orchestra and conductor!!!
Para mí es la sinfonía bailable de Beethoven, de principio a fin imagino un gran ballet en el escenario, el minué del segundo movimiento ya lo tengo en la cabeza con coreografía y todo.
My brother had the wonderful experience of Mehta's father conduct the UCLA youth orchestra. My brother says that he is a better conductor than his son Zubin. I can not remember the first name of Zubin's father's name.
@@leonardstevens4412 As an old fart, I too had heard Mehta's father conduct UCLA youth orchestra (but in those unforgettable days I had the fortune of being among the audience of many, many performances by Zubin.) In my humble opinion the father was no match for the son, not by any measure. The father's name was Melin. Melin told us that" there was a time when Zubin was called Melin's son, now he (Melin) is called Zubin's father."
Tutti bravi .Maestro Mehta & the soloists of the Israel Ph. O.gave us an excellent paradigm of how the Beethovenian symphonies have to be performed: with clarity, dynamism and eloquence, without being pompous. Especially, the finale (and its coda) were impeccable.
Una delle più belle interpretazioni di questa sinfonia per la giusta scelta dei tempi che rendono più chiare e intelligibili le intenzioni beethoveniane per questa sua ottava sinfonia.
מוסקט מנדלסון and so what ? don't tell me that you feel like him ! well .. I think you should feel less .. Because your house is built on the ruins of the Palestinians.
Alvin Schweitzer I can to understand you never was in Israel- I have neighbors palestinies, we learn Arabic in school. I'm in the left side of the map, I believe in human rights and palestinic country, but I still proud in my country
Una meraviglia ! Interpretazione sobria "ossigenata" da "tempi" che permettono una respirazione naturalmente giusta a questa sublime sinfonia beethoveniana che molti direttori "nervosi" spesso "malmenano".
In terms of depth and variations the composition is unique..One of Beethoven's best! "harmonious sounds on golden hinges moving"(John Milton). Zubin is simply superb!
Mehta totally under control after loosing his baton at :32 seconds into the piece taking it back from a string player at :38 never loosing a beat or getting distracted.
How would you rank Beethoven's symphonies? I'd go with: 1. 9th 2. 3rd 3. 5th 4. 6th 5. 7th 6. 8th 7. 4th 8. 1st 9. 2nd 9th and 3rd are so universally acclaimed, that's it's not a surprise, 9th has more of the grandeur that I find more appealing. I had a harder time picking between 5th, 6th, and 7th. 5th has absolutely legendary outer movements, so I picked it 3rd, while the 6th is strong overall with a more gentle mood when, 7th maybe has the most rousing final movement after incredible movements 1 and 2. 8th is very cleverly composed, but lacks any proper slow movement, 4th has an amazing fast part of the 1st movement, but it doesn't strike that deeply emotionally. Symphonies 1st and 2nd aren't as good as the rest, they have more classical period characteristics. Early piano sonatas by Beethoven are already very strong musically, but he truly found his very own orchestral language in the 3rd symphony. 1st has more compelling subjects than the 2nd for me. , I know you like the 2nd more.
Exciting Beethoven's 8th Symphony, from beginning to end.
it’s SO SO SO GOOD and so absolutely underrated...this symphony is utter perfection, love, life, and bliss . especially the 3rd movement I can’t get over it
Exactly! Totally under rated🥢!
The 8th is my current Beethoven obsession, but it's the first movement that really does it to me!
...quem sabe...Faz...excelente e maravilhosa apresentaçao...mui TALENTE !!!***
Zubin Mehta must have been 75 at that time.He celebrated his 85 th recently.May God give him a long and healthy life.
Zubin Mehta by far the greatest gift to the world coming out of India 🙏
As an Indian. I feel profoundly indignant at such a blithe oversight of Gandhi. But I'd probably - with reservations - concede to him being in the top 10.
Bach to think , Beethoven to fly over the clouds. I love both.
exatamente !!
cannot imagine my life without Bethoven..
Idem !
I see that Beethoven's beautiful and ravishing music unites nations. I am Czech. Peace, love and God's blessings to the whole world.
Each and every single symphony by Beethoven shall NEVER be equaled in Utter PERFECTION.
I agree Enrique!!
Except the 4th
Have never understood why the 8th is marginalized by some. Have always loved it and this performance is breathtaking. Bravo
Yes, the 8th is certainly one of Beethoven's best symphonies.....and this performance is certainly among the very best - if not the best!
Thank you Herr Conductor. I have listened to you since 1971 and thank you for all of your great work and also to Herr Beethoven.
wow he drops his baton in the opening bars and doesn't miss a beat!!! Superb!
The poor old 8th, eternally overshadowed by the 9th, but such a superb use of the mighty forces of a great orchestra
Agreed
I have loved the 8th since I was a child. It is the most colourful, passionate and energetic one. Even if the 100 singers in the 9th throw rocks at me: it is half as good as the 8th.
The 9th is the most overrated. And the finale is a knock off of Mozart anyway.
Wonderful symphony including a loud moment with piccolos that almost interrupts like a second or two of a tea kettle whistle, and of course one of the best conductors and symphonies in the world.
What a stunning performance! Zubins interpretation is among the best i've heard and the orchestra is top notch.
It's his most enjoyable symphony.
Also Beethoven's Symphony No. 6 (first and last movement) is filled with joy, which the composer unfortunately enjoyed so little. Greetings from Czechia.

This symphony is just so perfect... One of Beethoven's greatest ever compositions. oh the joy i get from hearing this
In my mind this pairs with Beethoven's piano concerto 1, they both have a free feeling joy!
I just love this work ! Why is it under rated ? It is magnificent !

💐🇳🇿 Out of this world. The most beautiful rendition. How wonderful!
Para mí es la sinfonía bailable de Beethoven, de principio a fin imagino un gran ballet en el escenario, el minué del segundo movimiento ya lo tengo en la cabeza con coreografía y todo.
Sí? Bueno atiendo sugerencia.
Yo amo a Bethoven también pero por otras razones.
Bailo más bien con otro 😄
Con otros debí decir.
Bailar me gusta mucho.
Wow! At 0:33 Mehta looses his baton as a result of hitting his stand and a string player quickly hands it back to him.
Superb. Orchestra has so much depth, meaning to it. So powerful. I just love it.
I COULD LISTEN TO THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN..WITH ZUBIN MEHTA
Gawd, no wonder he's considered one of the world's finest conductors, this is jaw-dropping!

Congratulations, Maestro Metha in your, todays birthday. You are great. I hope you ll return soon to conduct.
Many Thanks!!!
Beethoven. The greatest. European music. The best. Europeans. Historically the most brilliant innovative intelligent culture on the planet.
Got to be the most foolish comment here.

Excelente orquesta y director ..Amo las sinfonías de Beethoven
Cannot imagine my homework without Beethoven.
el mejor del mundo zubin metha
escuchar a beethoven es un gran pacer y mas cuando lo interpretacion es tan genial
look this 00:33 - 00:37 cool Maestro!
Wow!
Dropped his baton, and didn't miss a beat.... Almost unnoticeable, even when it was handed back to him. So smooth. Lol
Though Beethoven himself casually called this 8th Symph"verspielt"it is the cle verness of the Conductor to give you what you would certainly enjoy
Beauty
Mehta totally under control after loosing his baton at :32 seconds into the piece taking it back from a string player at :38 never loosing a beat or getting distracted.
El mejor director sin duda alguna.
Perfect Tempo
HEAVENLY
what a high performance!

Superb....

How would you rank Beethoven's symphonies? I'd go with:
1. 9th
2. 3rd
3. 5th
4. 6th
5. 7th
6. 8th
7. 4th
8. 1st
9. 2nd
9th and 3rd are so universally acclaimed, that's it's not a surprise, 9th has more of the grandeur that I find more appealing. I had a harder time picking between 5th, 6th, and 7th. 5th has absolutely legendary outer movements, so I picked it 3rd, while the 6th is strong overall with a more gentle mood when, 7th maybe has the most rousing final movement after incredible movements 1 and 2. 8th is very cleverly composed, but lacks any proper slow movement, 4th has an amazing fast part of the 1st movement, but it doesn't strike that deeply emotionally.
