The large number of comments focusing on the conductor pretty much sums things up: This was mostly about her. Best part: 17:40, when the bassoonist gets his breath.
Maestra Alondra eres una gran artista...¡¡ Con tu carisma, logras la magia de ser inspiración para tus músicos, con tu increíble forma de sentir la música logras también la magia de traducir a sonidos la esencia de las obras de los compositores y además logras conmover las almas de nosotros tu público... Simplemente eres maravillosa...¡¡ Bravo...¡¡ Felicidades y bendiciones.
Always love the one by Neville Marriner with The Academy of St.Martin in the Fields, but love this even more! Stravinsky is irreverent fun and the spark in these dark & depressing times! Though, only wish the trombone flatulence could have been bolder! Great orchestra and beautiful conductor.
a performance full of absurd inaccuracies -strange to make pubblic a video with such a good orchestra conducted without respect as it would be a guitar…you cannot conduct smiling all the time :it is not a sign of serenity but of insecurity
This is amusing. OK, full disclosure: I am a trumpet player. But even when the TUNE is being played by the trumpets, I don't see a single shot of them. All we see is a smiling conductor or bassoons playing running eights. Whoever is choosing the shots on this video, in live performance or in post production, seems to think the trumpets don't exist. Off I go to another video ... .
What a nice piece of music! I love it since decades. And to see a beautiful and passionate woman like her steering this ship is a real pleasure. What a discovery! I'm a musician myself from my deepest heart and love music - listening and playing - since my early childhood days - thanks to my dad. Experience her makes me think about how it was to have someone like her as partner on my side. She's so beautiful and so in it. Oh, when she smiles... I'd love to be in this orchestra and obeye every little wink of her hands, eyes and browes. Okay, I'm dreaming but I suppose that is allowed... Ahhh... I've nearly forgotten to mention it: The ensemble is of course brilliant as well! Cheers from Berlin
I love this music, but this performance is not accurate, e.g. the Tam/Tam in the deep strings at 0:27/0:28. If you compare that to the short recording of Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra/Rattle @ youtube you hear what I mean.
What a fantastic performance! Great conducting. I always think that the proud, sweet oboe solo launched at 0.40, repeated at 1.25 on cello and at 2.00, especially gorgeously, on violin, was probably the first time in decades that music teachers and theorists educated in the 19th-century thought the emblem child of Common Practice, a melodic, modulating descending harmonic sequence had been rescued from steady decline and oblivion.
Very pungent performance- hair-raisingly fast most of the time. I think the last bar is better as Stravinsky intended- ie with no ralentando. Tempo giusto!
This interpretation is too fussy and "micro-managed" for my taste. I don't like the exaggerated dynamics. This music should be kept simple and terse. It speaks for itself; no need for added frills.
The composer is a little affectatious and disingenuous. I was longing for sincerity the whole performance. Close your eyes and listen, do not watch the video. It's disheartening.

Una obra impresionante. Alondra de la Parra genial.
A real joy for the ear, heart, and mind. Stellar performance of a true, delightful classic!
Thank you so much !
LOVE to see the conductor's expressions... sublime
Some sub-limes are for example:
-key lime
Remarquable performance!!!
Desde España, mi admiración por la depurada interpretación de Alondra de la Parra.
淀みの無い快適なテンポで、道化の諧謔が愉しく、しかし、鋭敏に演奏されている。マエストロとhr交響楽団の魅力的なパフォーマンスに乾杯!

Maravillosa interpretación de esta hermosa obra dirigida por la magistral Alondra
Excepțional performance, full of grace and elegance.
Sweet, saucy, lamenting . . . a beautiful piece and well executed! I love this!
Phantastisch gespielt. Gratuliere.
Very nice write-up in the description by Phillipe.
Herrlich! Ich beginne letztens fast jeden Tag mit dieser Aufnahme!
Es hilft gerade in Zeiten wie diese, hebt die Stimmung. 🎶👌🙂
Very good performance !!! Well done to all !!! Musical greetings.
Without a doubt the most beautiful performance of this piece ever.
Very clear performance, in style.
Beautiful performance and beautiful conductor

Best of Musik Ever
It would be really nice to hear this with better fidelity and 720p or (heavens) 1080p vision. Thank you, regardless.
What a refreshing face to behold in that of 'Alondra de la Parra' beautifully conducted in my opinion!

¡¡¡Alondra de la Parra!!!
Un capolavoro universale.
Buona interpretazione, in qualche momento un poco veloce, mi pare.
Pasar de ver y escuchar una sinfonía de Beethoven, y maravillarse con una interpretación como esta es invaluable...
2:30
13:30 etc
Oboe solo
Alondra, acepte mi mano....A mis 74 años es lo único que puedo ofrecer.
Increíble Alondra de la Parra. Pasión, carácter y la transparencia que exige Igor. Mi respeto y admiración por ella desde Chile.
An ok performance, but the audio is not quite in sync with video. My favorite is the Frankfort Radio Orchestra performance.
What a nice piece of music! I love it since decades. And to see a beautiful and passionate woman like her steering this ship is a real pleasure.
What a discovery!

Love the trombone part on this!!! (I play trombone myself. Would love to play it.)
Pure anemoia.
Music , based not only Pergolesi ( also a few other composers )
If this conductor doesn’t just absolutely love this music, she sure has a strange way of showing that. PS, I’m in the same camp.
Menos mal que la orquesta es excelente que si no se va todo al guano varias veces. Poderoso caballero es Don Dinero.
at17:41nobody wants to see the conducter,we all want to see bassman !
Bassman!!!
Audio does not match video.
12:32

Neo-Baroque!

Ma i cantanti?????
Very pungent performance- hair-raisingly fast most of the time. I think the last bar is better as Stravinsky intended- ie with no ralentando. Tempo giusto!
Yes there is a video of Stravinsky himself conducting and the last bar sounds very different.
音と映像の再生タイミングがずれていて指揮の人の印象が悪くなる。可哀想。
Is lento and patient
What is lento? EDIT: Bing says very slow. Hmm. Ya think?
This interpretation is too fussy and "micro-managed" for my taste. I don't like the exaggerated dynamics. This music should be kept simple and terse. It speaks for itself; no need for added frills.
🤔 Hmm.
