Bravo. What a great speech - I love this guy. Such a humble, self-deprecating sense of humor. And yet, as one of the best in his field, he's aware that he must articulate some sense of the complexity of his job, and the importance of music to humanity. He's currently the conductor in my city, Chicago, and we're frankly spoiled by his talent. I'm lucky to hear his authoritative and lively interpretations of classical repertoire when I go to hear the CSO.
Bravo Maestro! E una granda gioia di sentire la vostra musica, e quasi non meno di sentire la vostra parlata, piena del umorismo e del profondo senso. Grazie
RICCARDO MUTTI ABOUT CONDUCTING: “… to get from the souls of the musicians the music, the feelings, the feelings, not the notes. The notes are the concrete expressions of the feelings. And that is something that makes the conducting the most difficult profession in the world. Because we have an idea that has to be expressed through the arms, and then has to go through the instruments that are played by the fingers or the mouth of the players and got to the public. So it is too long a way. To beat time is very easy, everybody can do, everybody. To make music is very, very difficult. I think that I am in the middle of the way. And I am sure that I’ll never get to the other part of the river because behind the notes lies the INFINITY, that means GOD…" Divinely said, dear Mr Muti, divinely said about the most divine of arts - the Music!THE SOUND, the Music, we cannot touch it, we cannot see it. To us it is not material, but only spiritual. It acts directly to our soul.
Little known fact about Muti but very true: He was begged to "watch and listen" to a performance of the Rolling Stones in Milan. come on maestro come on... you'll love them. He was hard pressed to enter the theater where the "divine" Rolling Stones were performing, he stood up, watched and listened for 10 minutes, then he exploded: 'IDIOTI" ( IDIOTS) and left.
Io non ho mai visto un maestro cosi bravo a insegnare l opera ..proprio come l hanno scritto gli autori..grande esperto..è un piacero ascoltarlo..complimenti x l inglese.
L'intervento del Maestro Muti è divertente ma nello stesso tempo, in maniera raffinata, ci offre una lezione sull'Arte della direzione appresa. Ma, riferendomi al policeman, mi viene da pensare che un vigile napoletano, nel traffico di Napoli, riuscirebbe a dirigere un "concertato" rossiniano. Un omaggio alla città di Napoli in cui il caos stradale è solo apparente ma, in realtà, è regolato da menti lucide e affinate alle quali basta uno sguardo per capire la situazione e intendersi. Averceli elementi simili in un'orchestra!! V.V.- :)
I fully agree. I used to play in orchestras in the past - as a non-professional, of course - and had a "conductor" who could not even beat the time properly and then wondered why we were not playing together.

I am a musician and a singer and this speech was just truly beautiful. So simple, yet so wonderful and inspiring.

"Behind the notes there's infinity - and that means God, and we are too small before God." Well said Maestro.
He quoted Mozart. Mozart said it
He should also win an award for best acceptance speech for an award.
Bravo Maestro!

Grazie
Amazing. Such wit, timing--and insight. Bravo, Maestro Muti!
Wonderful humor! Grazie tanto Riccardo Muti❣
Absolutely funny. I like very much Italian conductors like Muti and Abbado. RIP Maestro Abbado.

Brilliant Comment
Maestro Muti - a fabulous person!
Little known fact about Muti but very true: He was begged to "watch and listen" to a performance of the
Rolling Stones in Milan. come on maestro come on... you'll love them.
He was hard pressed to enter the theater where the "divine" Rolling Stones were performing, he stood up, watched and listened for 10 minutes, then he exploded: 'IDIOTI" ( IDIOTS) and left.
Well said Maestro.

very clever funny words by a great maestro
Spectacular video!!!
Inspiring words
Wonderful
Fantastico Maestro!! Immenso!!! 😀😀
Great!
Troppo forte e simpatico...sebbene abbia l aria severa..ha l humor inglese
Bravissimo
GRANDEEEEE
That's great
The only thing untrue about Muti's speech is when he says, "anybody can beat time. Anybody." The rest is beautiful!
I fully agree. I used to play in orchestras in the past - as a non-professional, of course - and had a "conductor" who could not even beat the time properly and then wondered why we were not playing together.
Welcome in the Club.
Maravilloso discurso. Como su seguramente admirado Puccini, nos hace pasar de la risa a la emoción y a las lágrimas en unos minutos.
At least he is very honest!
fortunately there is only 2 movements.....hahahahahaha...Love you Riccardo!
all true. Bravo!
nice guy...
