My very dear Klaus, you are absolutely incomparable, what a real great pleasure to see you and your videos, no matter what you are conducting, love you 🙌💞🔥🔥🔥💞🙌
I really enjoyed this performance and it does take me to that place as if I was there. Everyone from this orchestra have outdone themselves and deserves the best recognition there is. I'm so overwhelmed by all this. More power and blessings to come!!!😆👏👏
This comment section is full of narrow-minded, negative trolls. Stop discouraging young people from enjoying the world of classical music by being condescending. Music is up to interpretation, everyone does it differently, there’s no wrong or right way to play it. Stop judging him
He’s simply following what Mozart himself wrote, "Allegro assai" which means that it has to be really fast… but how much ? As there weren’t any metronome by Mozarts time we’ll never know. Mäkelä is simply interpretating what he’s reading.
One could think that the conductor is in a discotheque and throws himself into self-portrayal. A successful counter-example to him would be Karl Böhm, rare in his movements and everyone knows what needs to be done.
However he learned from Jorma Panula and during classes they learned how to not move at all when conducting. Not a single musician who worked with Mäkelä could say he “throws himself into self-portrayal” and always shows immaculate respect for music and composer. So the way he moves is rather external unconscious expression of emotions rather then any sort of narcissism
@@lilymoonlight3854 To be honest I think dignified restraint ie. Von Karajan and Thielemann, is more narcissistic than "throwing yourself into self-portrayal". But what do I know
It seems there are two kinds of conductors, the ones which are conservative and believing that music must represent the composer more, then themselves and ones which are more liberal and individualistic, they believe that the composer, being long dead anyway, created mere borders and they are free to interpret his work the way that suits themselves. The problem with such individualistic approach is that not every liberal conductor is genius enough to be able to match the composer. The good thing is that sometimes individualistic approach can give a sense of new understanding of music. As much as it a good thing, in this case someone arguably talented gave a chance to his emotion and starstruckness. He believed that in this world of virality and imperfectionism it is better to be original than self-critical. Well, to me that was a bad performance.
What a bunch of bullshit. First of all we don't throw labels on conductors like "liberal" and "conservative" that is such an American thing to do ("I don't like liberals so whatever I don't agree with is liberal"). This is such a stupid way to think. And secondly no conductor is focusing on themselves they are just interpretating the music that's written. How can someone know exactly what the composer wanted? They are just interpretating the score if you don't like their interpretation then do not listen to it no one's making you anyway. But you can't expect a conductor to focus on the exact tempo the composer wanted that is absurd. But would you know more? Then please if you do by all means grab a baton and go show us your skills.
Say that to Harnoncourt, who is only 8 seconds longer in one of his recording (which is easy to find here on yt) ! I’m not sure that you would say that he’s an ignorant who knows nothing about Mozart…
@@musiquesetoeuvresoubliees1866My learned friend, in my humble opinion there is no such thing as the “correct tempi” in this situation. The score simply marked Allegro assai, in which the tempo is somewhat open to the interpretation of the conductor. Please be more tolerant to different interpretations and recording as to protect young conductors to try different things without being criticised to believe they are worthless.
I could tell the age of the conductor as soon as the first measure was over. Extreme speed. It’s not all about speed, it is musicality. If you think speed is the coolest even in Mozart’s Ides Irae, please get more music education.
Very detailed, vivid interpretation!! It's refreshing to find such young yet steady talent in classical music.
My very dear Klaus, you are absolutely incomparable, what a real great pleasure to see you and your videos, no matter what you are conducting, love you 🙌💞🔥🔥🔥💞🙌
Maestro Klause ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing

The Music is SUBLIME!!! and Mäkelä' s conducting is really GREAT!!!
I read "Klaus Mäkelä conducts Dies", skipped a heartbeat...
O REQUIEM MAIS LINDO DA HISTÓRIA DA MÚSICA, SÓ PODIA SER DE MOZART!!!!!!!
Pura verdade !!!! Mozart foi inigualável.
❤🎉
Sibelius, Essa-Pekka Salonen, Mr. Rouveli, Mr. Makela...the Finns are music^s hot stuff!!!

Beautiful🌹
Standing applause!
Remarcable indeed
Big fan of Klaus and forever admirer of Mozart but the tempo for this was simply far too fast.
お育ちがいい
Klaus is the best young conductor on the planet but that was a way too furious.
Penso sia troppo veloce
The tempo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Was he on drugs?

A serious classical music channel would mention such a detail as the orchestra that is playing.
All that information is available if you ask for more in the description.
I will keep my recordings by Bohm, Bernstein, Mackerras, Colin Davis...

Thought the exact same thing when I watched this performance. Poor selection of soloists

let the gate of hell open 😒
It is insane. This is not music. Anything but... Go to Abbado, to Giulini, to Bernstein and others, and then you'll know what music is... and Mozart.
Absolutely correct!
The old school used to make this quite slower, I disagree with you
@@justamusician7846absolutely : Karl Böhm 1971 recording is a bit more than an hour long…10 to 15 minutes longer as it should be with correct tempi.
Say that to Harnoncourt, who is only 8 seconds longer in one of his recording (which is easy to find here on yt) ! I’m not sure that you would say that he’s an ignorant who knows nothing about Mozart…

Well done. But for me, too many novelties and personal flourishes. I still prefer Karajan.
Klaus is the next Von Karajan, I'm proud to say.
van Leusink is better than both.

After listening Bernstein, it’s hard to believe in this version. Poor ideas for choir. Though fine musicians!
Such original repertoire, not! he’s missing his lipstick 💄
