Very happy to find this video, I recently heard Klaus Mäkelä conducting the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in Vienna, he created such a music that made me so moving, especially in the finale.
01:01:45 mezzo soprano JENNIFER JOHNSTON… A REVELATION for me. fantastic!
Having "discovered" Klaus Mäkelä only recently, I am captivated. His energy and enthusiasm are spell-binding. Klaus is a brilliant conductor.
Dear orchestra and conductor! I heard you in Edinburgh last summer, was such a pleasure truly, but this record is a huge, phenomenal work of you all. Huge congratulations. The last movement is very much demanding, dealing with the wide open slow movement, requires loads of attention, emotional content with huge energy, stressing out a very large canvas of this grandiose movement, providing constant legato, delivering authentically the monumental poetry of the genius composer, Gustav Mahler. You did it perfectly. Wonderful.🧡🙏
🎹 This video reveals the absolute highest and best that humanity has to offer and what we can achieve when we come together. Superb orchestral playing...a glorious contralto...and a gifted conductor. Also, the excellent videography highlights the dedication and committment of each
of those 100 musicians. An unforgettable performance. 🎹
“. . . the best that humanity has to offer . . . .” Hear - hear.
Klaus Makela is a young STAR on the sky of music life! Irresistable, the way he is showing his feelings while conducting!
The orchestra sounds incredible 👏👏👏
Brilliant camera work.
just Incredible!
I am enjoying this performance. I am totally not a Mahler fan.However, I find this very listenable and I hear the craft in the composition I’m listening to the video rather than watching it. when I was in college, it was the same criticism about Ozawa when he first came on the scene was considered superficial, and we were all wrong. The trombonist is brilliant and plays solo more beautifully than I have ever heard. Bravo.
This is rather good imo and I managed to listen to it on the maestro's birthday. Great orchestra and wonderful conductor. Singing is great !
It is wonderful to hear and see a younger generation listening to the wondrous music that has fulfilled my life for 70 years. One worries that young people have turned away from ever encountering composed music. The schools treat it as an eccentric irrelevant skill or knowledge and most students in North America never have any musical experience. I remember in grade 7 my classes had shop and craft but not music but I managed to slip into an intro to music one day for the older students and the music teacher whose name has forever stayed with me with great honour. Mrs. De Sola introduced me to Tchaikovsky and I fell forever into the world of classical greatness. I did not ever have music training at all but 70 years later here I am enthralled at Mahler's 3rd symphony final movement totally memorized for decades now listening and watching this perfect UA-cam with a mixture of young and mature musicians conducted by a brilliant conductor, Makela. I am so very happy my musical hero Mahler lives today in our hearts.
Me gusta la música de Mahler y veo que hay gente muy joven interpretandola y no se diga del Director que bueno que todo se conjunta y deleita viéndolo s y oyendolos Viva Mahler y sus inter retes😊😊
Terrific performance, great sound, and excellent videoing! Thanks to everyone.
The composer, the orchestra and the conductor......this is passion in its purest form.....Thank You
Respect to all the musicians here and thank you for sharing this performance.
👏👏👏🙏
a remarcable young conductor, very young with a graet talent
Yes, Mahler, dark and brooding.
Para mí es realmente conmovedora esta interpretación, Mil gracias, desde Colombia
Klaus Mäkelä impressiona-me pela sua juventude e mestria. A Filarmónica de Oslo é magnífica. Não sei quantas vezes já ouvi a mezzo-soprano Jennifer Johnston cantar no quinto movimento, bem como o coro (1:11:28). Afinal ainda há coisas belas neste mundo! Obrigado (Martz Inura)
What a MARVELOUS surprise to find this this morning in suggested videos!! One of my favorite symphonies and an introduction to a very talented and splendid conductor!! And to some other commenters I can hear the tympani quite well.
I agree. Und nicht die vorzügliche Bildregie vergessen…So sehe ich endlich einmal die Einsätze der einzelnen Instrumente, danke dafür.
First Movement, Well done! Excellent ensemble balance and rhythmic cohesion. Slow movements are tough! Hard to keep the line flowing. Excellent solo players throughout, especially the trombonist! Very rich sound from the brass, all sections.
Unquestionably, you wild horn-blowers and wand-sawers and stick-pounders - Best Band on the Planet!! Klaus, never forget the Oslo P is truly your home, no matter where you roam, brilliant young man.🧡
Utterly compelling from start to finish. Just goes to prove that with total rapport between a formidable orchestra and inspired conductor what can be achieved.
Also many thanks for the first class presentation provided.
What? His Sibelius symphony cycle was an absolute shambles. This guy is the most overhyped classical musician in the world after André Rieu.
🤭@@classicallpvault8251
ua-cam.com/video/ft_VyD7TU08/v-deo.html
@@classicallpvault8251 only seen a live Sibelius First which struck me as overconducted. This Mahler 3, as of halfway through the first movement is noisy and unidiomatic, That the orchestra seems engaged is in his favor. Technique rudimentary, concept, primitive. It will be interesting to see how- or if - he evolves.
I'm speechless!
Thank you for the full uncut version!
What conductor takes cuts?
Thanks for uploading this as it gives me a chance to see this wunderkind in action: the orchestra is just superb and so committed.
Magnifique interprétation ! Merci !
really wish I could see this music in action with movies... WOW, Unglaublich
klaus makela est extraordinaire , fantastique chef d'orchestre
At a very young age, he truly understands Mahler (my POV).
Not mine...
@@bloodgrss For his age, truly exceptional I would say. Maybe not quite Lenny, but pretty amazing nonetheless!
David Hurwitz at Classics Today rips this guy to shreds
Yes, and for the most part rightly so. But Dave has a bit of a 'not recency' bias, and Klaus is a serious musician who may mature in time to the greatness his fans mistakenly claim for him today. Perhaps Yuja Wang will influence him forward...@@youmothershouldknow4905
@@youmothershouldknow4905 I rarely agree with David H, who detests my mentor, Jascha Horenstein, but I find this awfully prosaic and overblown.
A stunning performance! Brava tutti!
SUBLIME!!! Thank you!!
Bravo ! Force, finesse, écoute de l'Orchestre... Direction magistrale de ce jeune Chef ! Klaus Makela ... Mahler lui va très bien
brilliant conductor
Fantastic Interpretation! So much passion.
Il faut être Mahler pour écrire 1h40 minutes de musique sans une seconde d'ennui !
La dirección de Claus Mäikëla nos hace descubrir otras formas magníficas de escuchar las grandes obras maestras.
Es la 1ra vez qué lo escucho .Malher es bravo.
amazing wow
Fantastic! Favorite orchestra witj favorite conductor and favorite composer (and third favorite symphony)!! I'm already very curious to see what you will upload next! I'm hoping for more brilliant perfomances and interpretations of masterworks!
We are all hoping! Klaus Mäkelä has a tough program with Olso and then Amsterdam and then Paris.
ほんと素晴らしいよマーラーさんは
泣ける
In one word: magnificent!
Grande, Klaus Mäkelä! qué madurez demuestra al gestionar la complejidad de la obra, la capacidad par asumirla en su descomunal dimensión y su amplísima orquestación. Realmente, ya es uno de los grandes del momento actual. La Filarmónica de Oslo (no había escuchado esta orquesta) es magnífica y los numerosos solos que Mahler propone (como en todas sus sinfonias), resueltos a gran nivel.
En resumen, una extraordinaria versión, sin acercarse, eso sí a la mítica de Bernstein en Wien en los años 70, pero en un muy digno puesto. Gracias por compartir
In the first movement I hear eerie portents of coming war. A magnificent reading.
Superstar Finnish conductor Klaus Mäkelä (pronouced like how "Maix-que-laix" would sound in French...), 28 is the new and youngest head conductor of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra since it was founded in 1891. Mäkelä had served previously as chief conductor of the Oslo Philharmonic in Norway since 2020, and the music director of Orhcestre de Paris since 2021. This was announced two days ago. ua-cam.com/video/hut-BTQKoTc/v-deo.html
1:32:40 beautiful trumpet chorale
Ecouter Malher, c'est abolir le déferlement des bruits et des images du quotidien pour entrouvrir l'espace d'un ailleurs où la contingence et la représentation cèdent la place à l'immatérialité du sensible. La puissance expressive de l'architecture sonore rompt avec toute forme de transcription du réel pour s'attacher à l'expression d'un univers fabuleux où la couleur et le rythme constituent une respiration qui donne souffle à l'exaltation 🔥🕌✨
Beautiful 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍Thank you .
Finally we have Abbado successor.
A great 3rd with a beautifully paced final movement. My favourite mezzo sang "O Mensch! Gib Acht" so I'm happy.
She was phenomenal!
@@RumiRose12 I completely agree!
Great performance! Thank you so much for uploading! Now I must go to Oslo next year to catch live! Pls pls take this to Edinburgh next year🙏
Toll gemacht, an alle ganz besonders an Mahler, Klaus Mäkelä und dem Orchester ❤
How good is *this*!
WOW!!!
Hello! I follow your majestic pace around the stages - always in excellent shape - and since I am a composer I want to ask you if there is any possibility of performing my works to orchestra by you leading (of course). I"ll be glad to be informed in any case. Take care - all the best
좋은 연주는 멋진 곡을 더욱더 새롭게 보게 하는군요!!!!!!!!
Czy Wy go wypuściliście i jest teraz gdzie indziej, czy mi się wydaje?
Gustav mahler, Schutzpatron der Blechbläser
Absolutely Beautiful Performance.
This is very good.
This is such a well balanced orchestra ! And some credit needs to go to the conductor.
With this interpretation I think it is time for a great revival of this third sympony.
It's actually pretty commonplace in the concert hall already
@@michaelthoseby4682 Is it? I have not noticed.
Like most of Mahler symphonies it gets overplayed.
Don't get me wrong I love this music, I think Mahler is one of the greatest composers ever. But the obsession with concert programmers with his music is doing it a disservice. It's in danger of becoming business as usual. And this music should never be business as usual.@@staffanolofsson8201
@@Quotenwagnerianerit is just thar we now see and hear many more orchestras online than ever before.
Great performance. Can anyone recommend recordings (CDs/other high-quality audio) that is as dynamic and exciting as this performance?
Leonard Bernstein’s recording with the NY Phil.
To me the best Mahler 3 is Claudio Abbado with Vienna Philarmonic and Jessy Norman (Deutsche Grammophon).
Andres Orozco Estrada/Frankfurt. A revelation. It is only available on UA-cam, as far as I know. For sheer balls- to-the-wall wondrous beautiful crazy, Tennstedt/Minnesota is also on UA-cam.
@@nerowolfe5175 Thank you and to the others who made suggestions!

He is a genius conductor. Mäkelä, All Japanese classical music fans are waiting for your concert. Please come to Japan as many times as you like.
Holy mother of god
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
1楽章ラストの白熱ぶりに思わず何人か拍手しちゃってるの目茶苦茶気持わかる。
At the very end Mahler intended for 2 timpanists to strike together the last chords but to play exactly together is very difficult so we see the Solo Timpanist playing those chords by himself. A very wise decision indeed. Conductor s decision, I assume?
obviously both timpanists are at it in the last bars as you can tell by 1:37:50 and there is no difficulty 'playing together'; all timpanists look at the conductor and at each other in those final bars.
The timps are not delivering the goods, whether it is the fault of one of them, two, or, more likely, the conductor. @@frankstein9982
集中力の高いすばらしい演奏。まだまだ成長の余地があるこの若手指揮者を注目していたいと思う。
ソリスト、concertmaster皆がすばらしい。いつかライヴで鑑賞したい。

Quelle Maestria,,,Quelle énergie.. pour un si jeune chef...Du talent de la science ...d´une conduite d´Orchestre .d´une perfection hors-normes.. Et quelle sensibilité !!!! Si haut nos compliments ne peuvent l´atteindre Bravo avec toutes nos émotions !!!!.
📍1:01:44
Might be the recording engineers, but the timpani can hardly be heard. This compromises the entire final pages of this well conducted and well played work.
I don't see the effort, so while it could be the engineers, it's also on Klaus. HAve you listened to the Orozco-Estrada video? That's how you do it.
It might be the accoustics. I remember when I used to attend concerts in the Oslo Concerthall in the 90's. The timpani could hardly be heard. The musicians complained that they couldn't hear eachother. The orchestra deserves a better hall to play in.
@@packer812My experience also. I went to lots of concerts (last minute cheap tickets, always way in the back) when I was studying music in 80s. Later when I got to visit other concert halls in Europe, it was shocking to hear what the music could really sound like.
@@baldrbraa I heard the Oslo Phil in the Musikverein many years ago. I could hardly believe it was the samw orchestra that I had previously heard in the Oslo Concerthall. It was a completely different sound. You could actually hear the timpani and the woodwind and strings sounded much warmer. An entirely different experience.

Of all the performances of Mahler's Third I've heard, I think maybe this is the closest to perfection.
Must not have heard many...ua-cam.com/video/ft_VyD7TU08/v-deo.html
He's very young .....He must have started conducting when he was 13 or14 ....😅... And his face is very interesting ... character...😊
What is the matter ?
In two words: STAR WARS!
After 25 minutes we go back to the beginning, oh no!
참 좋습니다(very good)!

Amazing performance. Not having the viennese oboes is still a shortcoming.
Actually this was rather good. Much better than his performance with the Concertgebouw on YT which was just plain dull
He has no chemistry with that orchestra.
@@b286guy May I ask on which performances or experiences you base this?
But he does.@@b286guy
Good cueing but he’s showing every beat. It’s not horrible but at times it’s unnecessary and can distract from shaping the sound. Curious what the musicians think about him.
I remember Dudamel getting a lot of hate from the players when he arrived in LA but I think they’ve grown to like him although I know some are still irritated with his rehearsal technique
No, no, no!!!
Unzusammenhängend, der Fluss des Liedes ging verloren.
Es fehlt an Talent.
Es lohnt sich nicht mehr, ihm zuzuhören.
Boo!
Not true. This is full of emotion and the closest i’ve heard to perfection of this piece
Listen to the Orozco-Estrada video for a performance that nails the balances and execution this piece calls for. Compare the finale to Klaus and listen to the differences. Klaus and Oslo pale by comparison. How can any conductor countenance such tame timpani in the finale? Here is Andreas:
ua-cam.com/video/oSBfEPAnDsY/v-deo.html&ab_channel=hr-Sinfonieorchester%E2%80%93FrankfurtRadioSymphony
Oslo videos are often let down by an unremarkable hall and the fact that the orchestra just doesn't sparkle like a first-class ensemble. So maybe it isn't all Klaus's fault. I don't have anything against Oslo- I own plenty of Jansons recordings that sound fine. But the hype around Klaus is not measuring up. The expectations are just way out of line- he's a kid who needs time to learn, and someone who is no better than dozens of conductors out there, and far less skilled than many of them. Go ahead and take a ride on the hype machine if you like, but you aren't listening critically.
Back to Mahler 3: I heard Peter Oundjian conduct this piece with the Colorado Music Festival orchestra and the results were stellar- quite similar to what Orozco-Estrada offers in terms of sonic impact, balances, etc. Who is he? An experienced, modest conductor who can do the job, nothing more.
You’ll probably get a lot of negativity for your remarks; I find them just and accurate.
The conductor's smiling is distracting and unnerving
So ?
What it must be like to perform with such fantastic, passionate string player rather than the pathetic, anemic strings that drag community orchestras like barnacles on the hull of a ship.
Ending was rather boting
Most of the musicians seem to be doing their best not to look at the conductor. Maybe they're worried they'll bust out laughing?
WHY DO THESE YOUNG CONDUCTORS ALL THINK THEY CAN CONDUCT MAHLER ? ?
it's all just mahler, mahler, and sometimes beethoven (gasp)
play something original for fucks sake. half the people in the hall have probably never heard of dittersdorf or zelenka even though they're equally or even more talented and skilful than these ones. not that anyone would care, since everything has to be fucking romantic music all the time. what's galant? what's baroque? hell, what's renaissance? no-one outside the academic sphere knows or cares, it's all romantic, romantic, high classical.
Area Man Attends Auto Show, Complains "No Bicycles!"
We're getting into a deeper and deeper groove with the same repetitive programming as interest in classic music wanes and filling seats becomes the only consideration. Better Mahler and Beethoven than "Pokemon at the Symphony" or whatever, at least.
Dittersdorf? You have to be joking.
@@markd1516 Not even bass players (I am one) want to hear Dittersdorf.
I can’t stand the principal cellist. In the old times musicians played well without all that unnecessarily clownish motion.
Prosaic. Nothing organic. No sense of the music being created in the moment - just dutifully reading/playing the score.
