I sang in the chorus in performances of this work with Giulini. Indescribably wonderful experiences, one was transported for days and weeks afterwards. No one has ever matched up to Giulini.
I have a DVD of this performance and that's exactly the one word I'd use to describe it. INTENSE! It might be filmed in black and white, and the all-important soloists aren't my first choices (with the exception of Bumbry), but this performance grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go until the final ovation-which goes on and on and on, one of the longest ovations I've ever heard.
Carlo maria Giulini was an amazing conductor I enjoyed a concert with him in Birmingham in 1964 and the Midland orchestra played far better than usual.
Saw him conduct this at the Edinburgh Festival in the 1960s. Possibly the greatest musical experience of my life. Still have the programme with his autograph on it.
The most striking thing, even above the excellence of the performance itself, is Giulini’s composure before the epic downbeat. You could see in him the ultimate in relaxation, concentration and focus, the elements that you really need in a dramatic episode like this, rather than “making a fist”. Brilliant musicianship, all around.
Curiously, the clarity of sound comes over better to me than the 'peak' distorted 'classic' recording that EMI issued. Very fine film direction. Thanks for posting.
Incredible performance, thrilling video. If you saw Giulini conduct this piece, as I was privileged to do at the LA Philharmonic in 1979, you can never forget it. No performance can live up to it--the intensity, the spiritual depth, the BASS DRUM! In rehearsal in LA, he could NOT GET IT Loud enough.
Eternità Grazie a tutti Nell' eternità Ci troveremo Grazie Maestro grazie musicisti grazie A tutte le voci grazie a chi a Registrato Grazie a chi ha messo il video Grazie Much love for all
Truly- One of the finest conductors of our generation. Unfortunately, his career ended early due to his wife becoming ill. He was a Master with complete control over orchestra and choir as witnesses by this video.
Not sure what you mean. His wife died in 1995. His last performance was three years later. He was already in his mid 80s. That's not exactly early retirement.
Mil gracias por compartir. I'm reading Plácido Domingo's book right now and he lists Giulini as one of his very favorite conductors, esp of this aria of the Verdi Requiem. He speaks very admiringly and warmly of him. I have to agree with him, very powerful, affecting and commanding.
Possente interpretazione di questo brano ispirato dal Componimento più breve di Tommaso da Celano (Medioevo) basato sui passi biblici riguardo la fine dei tempi 🔥⚡🌚 Verdi, un Genio riesce a creare una sinestesia tra suoni, immagini, sicché pare di vedere quel giorno, Dies Irae. Maestosa interpretazione del Grande Maestro Giulini.
Viva Giulini! I grew up on his great recording of the Requiem (Schwarzkopf/Ludwig/Gedda/Ghiaurov). I'm impressed by the video and audio quality of this, considering its age. So much better than most videos of that age.
Wow! Folks this is a most rare 42" Bass Drum; not normally seen in orchestral ranks but perfectly suited to mimic the nails penetrating the limbs of Christ.
Rafaele Arie is killing me....either use your score or don't. Stop messing with it! Bumbry is a goddess! Giulini had such a great feel for Verdi. Such a fantastic conductor.
Wow... it certainly appears as if Maestro G. "Saint Carlo" truly believes the words his chorus is singing, and rightly so. Just a bit of a pity the camera could not pivot to capture the appearance of the antiphonal off-stage trumpets; am curious to know where they would have been placed. [Long digression---> No, i do not know the score well enough by just listening, or seen it in print, but this (currently-unemployed) orchestral violist has played this Dies Irae section in a western "suburb" of Bangkok, of all places, under another Italian conductor, Alfonso Scarano.] "Big Al" (my silly nickname for Maestro Scarano^^) has been posting more videos of late of the TPO, Thailand Philharmonic Orchestra, here on YT, and the quality may surprise. Perhaps the best thus far have been those from the Busan [Republic of Korea] Maeru International Music Festival, where it was one of only 4 non-Korean orchestras to appear in the 2021 online edition of the festival. Whether those videos have been archived i do not know... Back to our regularly-scheduled programming ^^
solti with vienna, still my favorite; a young pavarotti, joan sunderland, marilyn horne, and i forget the baritone, a finn i thing, ah , matti something?
26th April. Before by four months or so. Five months or so in vitro. Don't know whether or not my Mum witnessed this but I was one week overdue or perhaps it was some Pop song or another that deterred me. Dunno, we know why some are premature but what delays child birth? Sorry, got off track a bit but interesting, nonetheless.
Oh, turned on too late on The Proms yesterday for the dramatic beginning. Think this is the beginning but fell asleep toward the end too so missed a lot. Wonder how this compares?
@@josephjacob8465 oh that's wonderful thank you. I was a member of the Philharmonia Chorus in the 90s but missed out on singing in a concert with Giulini (he had to pull out due to illness). What an experience it would have been.
Oh, yes... You are speaking about the Universal Judge of Michelangelo in the Sistina Chapelle... wirh claming peoples, and angels, and saints, and clouds...
Genial este Giulini, creo que fue el que dijo,que Dios le habia enviado ,para mostrar al mundo la musica clasica etc... preguntado al Master Von Karajan,que le parecia este comentario...jaaa ,respondio que no recordaba haberle encargado nada....jaaaa Genial Von Karajan dentro y fuera del Atril....jaa
Hasta parece que trata de imitar a Karajan en su forma de moverse al dirigir, solo que carece de la sencillez y fluidez del original, esta otra se ve forzada. Aunque no negaré que la interpretación es de las mejores.
@@AFE1312 creo que no Karajan es totalmente diferente en sus movimientos incluso El Verdi:Requiem de Karajan no es tan bueno como el de Giulini . Karajan es bueno en Beethoven, Wagner, Tchaikovsky un poco en Mozart pero en Verdi no es sobresaliente Karajan también fue muy arrogante y orgulloso.
@@wilfredomedero6680 ...well..when you are the best..all its permit..with respect my friend..after Furwtangler...Von Karajan was the best...it dosnt matter what do you think..ok
Avant on avait des Divas noires, Whitney Houston et d'autres voix inoubliables, maintenant on a Wejdene Aya Nakamura et Nikki B.... Le talent s'est fait la malle y'a un moment !
Ivan the "Terrible"---> more literally translated, Ivan the Awe-Inspiring, the moniker given to him post-mortem by (chauvinistic) Russians for his victories over their historical enemies.
He was always known in our family as “the great Giulini.”
I sang in the chorus in performances of this work with Giulini. Indescribably wonderful experiences, one was transported for days and weeks afterwards. No one has ever matched up to Giulini.
wow I can imagine the wonder through your words
I am jealous - must have been a wonderful experience.
exept Abado !!!!!!
Wow - was just think that the chorus' entrances and cut offs were laser sharp.
anche io ho lavorato con CMG a santa Cecilia a Roma...Schumann , Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms .... assolutamente meraviglioso!
OMG look at his face... One of the most intense performances.

Karajan‘s performance is very intense too.

Thank you for your input! It's very interesting to hear it from a person who's been there!

If I could say one word about this performance, it would be clarity. Just clarity!
This is 60 years old.
0:12 - 0:40 preparing the epicness that is about to occur. Sublime.
The most striking thing, even above the excellence of the performance itself, is Giulini’s composure before the epic downbeat. You could see in him the ultimate in relaxation, concentration and focus, the elements that you really need in a dramatic episode like this, rather than “making a fist”.

To be able to see that in 2024 is a blessing
Такой дирижер вытащит из тебя все эмоции какие положены даже если ты не мож4шь,то с ним сможешь !!++❤
와 1964년 영상을 2025년에 보다니.. pri038님 고마워요
What an inspirational perfomance and what inspirational conducting!.....Bravo!
Curiously, the clarity of sound comes over better to me than the 'peak' distorted 'classic' recording that EMI issued. Very fine film direction. Thanks for posting.
l'espressione di Giulini è da spettacolo. Ottimo tutto.
E' l'ultima intenzione di un grandissimo Maestro, rigoroso, perfezionista, insuperabile.
Por desgracia mucha gente presta mas atención al teatro del director que a la propia música.
Man, this is HEAVY.

Absolutely perfect singing by Grace Bumbry.
Great performance! And Grace Bumbry is utterly magnificent!
This is the best version!
Without a doubt

Que performance monumental do maestro!!
Quella di Giulini è la mia esecuzione preferita in assoluto.
Abbado dove lo metti? supremo
grande Giulini,rigoroso e coinvolgente.
Interpretação histórica e insuperável!!!

Fabulous Bumbry
Weltklasse (World-Class)
2023: ad oggi insuperato interprete di questo requiem verdiano
He knows the lyrics better than they do. I think thats why it works.
Exactly 60 years ago today
We were all so young. It was the beginning of our adult lives.
Fascinating
BELLEZA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is the largest drum I have ever seen in my life.
Wow! Folks this is a most rare 42" Bass Drum; not normally seen in orchestral ranks but perfectly suited to mimic the nails penetrating the limbs of Christ.
This is not a "Credo" from a standard mass. It has nothing to do with the crucifixion.
Jaysus! Keep it light!
I know of no one who performed the Verdi Rectum as well as Giuilini. :)
The Verdi RECTUM?!?! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....! I believe you meant to say "Requiem.'
verdi rectum? lmao
Your spellchecker made a f**l of you.
are we talking about the same thing or nah
I like this song
와...깜작 놀랄만한 영상입니다.
Giulini ???? Wow super explosion conduct !!!
0:41 Begins The Messa Da Requiem
Rafaele Arie is killing me....either use your score or don't. Stop messing with it! Bumbry is a goddess! Giulini had such a great feel for Verdi. Such a fantastic conductor.
🤣🤣🤣
He DID have a feel for Verdi! Some of his operas! His DON CARLOS with Placido Domingo just popped in my head.
Anna and I went to it in London in 1964 also…Bill T
Esplêndido!!!
Un grandeeee❤❤❤
He was Italian after all.
Conductor's face vs audience faces make the biggest contrast ever lol -_-

Despair and the unimaginable combined...
Much more staccato than most other versions.
Carlo Maria guilini
has a typically roman face of soldier like the one we used to see in the historical roman busts !
He was spellbindingly noble.
@@enricoluccarini3626 he looked like a roman General like the ones we used to see their status in the museums .
0:41 - dies irae 2:51 - tuba mirum
This is wonderful, but where's the rest of it?

What happened to the organ of the RFH?
Try it by putting the reproduction speed to 95%. I feel it is just perfect 5% slower!!!
Starts at 0:40
Thanks for saving me those 39 boring seconds.
Thank you ❤

Where to find the rest of the performance, wonderful
1964. Vintage year.
Which month and day?
I want to know whether this event was before or after my birth.
26th April.
Before by four months or so.
Five months or so in vitro.
Don't know whether or not my Mum witnessed this but I was one week overdue or perhaps it was some Pop song or another that deterred me.

No one comes close to Toscanini's reading of this and never will.
I will try.
Incommentabile. Ho solo pianto. Strepitoso.
全曲おねがいします
Probably the best version of Verdi Dies this 💯😭
What chorus is this?
The dies irae from Verdi's Requiem.
@@josephjacob8465 Thanks Joseph but I was asking who was singing :)
Oh!! That is the Philharmonia Chorus singing.
@@josephjacob8465 oh that's wonderful thank you. I was a member of the Philharmonia Chorus in the 90s but missed out on singing in a concert with Giulini (he had to pull out due to illness). What an experience it would have been.
Black magic chorus 😂
If anything I'm the dude on the huge fucking drums lmao
The most disturbing, terrifying piece of western music.
Well, Verdi will next life learn again from sir William Walton, or Morricone🤪😄
Oh, yes... You are speaking about the Universal Judge of Michelangelo in the Sistina Chapelle... wirh claming peoples, and angels, and saints, and clouds...
Sure you never was in Sistin Chapelle. Verdi's Requiem is Michelangelo in music...
Intenso
Don't conductors get tired after such an intense performance?
0:51
3:21 WAIT, WAIT, WAIT... who is this handsome concentrated guy with black hair and the oboe? 😍😍😍😍
bassoon dingus
that's a rather large drum at the start....
Is the facial expression a fit over?
This is definitley on Satan's workout playlist
Satan gets pumped up after listening to this and also after looking at the conductor😂
El maestro Gianandrea Noseda parecería "flash" si dirigiera esta orquesta 😙

judgement day-hesap günü...
Trppo agitato, sembra sia stato morso da una tarantola. Più compostezza...
I agree. Do it like Richard Strauss, looking at the clock while conducting and shit
Soberbio ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Dies Irae is too fast, the percussion are good they are very close to the sound of Abado,but not great.
I'm not sure the conductor really has to work quite that hard and throw his shoulder out of socket on every beat. There is a thing known as subtlety.
Madonna quanto e' stonata l'orchestra e il coro...
Quanta arroganza!
Certo, non sono italiani. Basta, non ascoltate più.
Giulini is really terrible
You're an idiot?
@@loralayons1120 As italian i think he meant "terribile" as someone who really knows well about his stuff ;)
