    A splendid performance. Controlled yet full of emotion. I watched this live soon after my wife's death from cancer in summer of that year. It was uplifting and in Sunset I felt her spirit giving me hope and love for the future - a truly remarkable piece of music.

    my favorite part is the "calm before the storm"... i can picture it all like i just saw it. There is a stillness, there is no wind, no anything, its all just... calm. and then a few droplets of rain as the clouds come rolling in... followed by the wind picking up, as well as the rain. it's amazing how one can create such a scene through music alone... i can't imagine how moving it would be to hear that in person. bravo

    What an awesome amazing alpine journey I've just been on. This truly epic performance
    with the VPO ranks as total perfection as far as I'm concerned. The main beautiful theme
    that runs through this majestic music makes the hairs on the back of my head stand to
    attention as does that incredible powerful thunderstorm part with the hardworking lads
    on percussion which of course includes the great sound of the wind machine. I really wish
    that I'd been there at the Albert Hall on that day but nevertheless I can listen to this piece
    of excellent Strauss anytime I like as I still have it on an old cassette by the LAPO/ Mehta.

They have found the best way to unite many groups of diverse people towards a common goal. The end result is the most mind blowing music that has ever been created. I'm a teenager.

    • @annakimborahpa

      Let the composer himself convey what this symphony means to him, writing in his journal upon the death of Gustav Mahler in 1911 (according to Wikipedia): "It is clear to me that the German nation will achieve new creative energy only by liberating itself from Christianity ... I shall call my alpine symphony: Der Antichrist, since it represents: moral purification through one's own strength, liberation through work, worship of eternal, magnificent nature." How did this "new creative energy" work out for Strauss's beloved Germany, in the light of the subsequent World Wars I and II (which he managed to survive, passing away in 1949)?

    • @g.r.6955
      @g.r.6955 7 років тому +1

      Well, it is obvious that it did not. In C. G. Jung's words, Christianity was always like "a cloak worn over age-old primitiveness" for the average European. It was not that the German nation needed to liberate themselves from Christianity, but that they had to be aware of the pagan and primitive within. Wotan, the God of war, was awakened and had his revenge on them. My grandfather lost his life becasue of the Second World War, my parents suffered tremendously. To this day, so do his children, including myself. How can such a creative nation that makes such great music be so primitive? Could it be because they lack what every religion tries to teach: Humility????

    Just today I've introduced myself to Dvorak's _Rusalka_, Dukas' _Ariane et Barbe Bleue_ (like, he wrote something other than the _Sorcerer's Apprentice_, am I right?) and now this magnificent _Alpine Symphony_. It's a lot to take in all at once, but it just fascinates how _inexhaustible_ of a fountain an orchestra is. And there's still _so_ much exploration to be done by each one of us, classical enthusiasts...

    •  8 років тому

      Yes, the sea is vast. I usually end up exhausting onde composer at a time. Right now I'm focusing a lot on Brahms. There's this playlist of concert excerpts from Berliner Philharmoniker on YT that is really good as an introductory platform to the composer's music (I mean, beyond his 5th Hungarian Dance). Actually, I should listen some more of it right now.

      Late Romantic. Strauss lived well into the 20th Century, but could never move on from Romanticism in the way that Schoenberg or others did. He did push the limits of functional and chromatic harmony to extremes, though - perhaps more than any before him. This can be seen especially in his late operas. The Alpine Symphony, while epic and magnificent, was heavily criticized after its premier for being too melodically and harmonically conservative. But that was exactly Strauss's goal; he was creating a musical journey through the Alps - a very simple and folky part of Germany.

      Max Pankau Your second sentence, should it not be: 'wanted' to move instead of 'could', which sounds as an incapability. Cf. your own: "Strauss's goal".
      And: he lived in that folky part, in the Alps.

      Nice of you, mr. Christopher, to describe me precisely what gave you this explosion with exasperattion; with evidently some symptoms of a short mental disorder, which can lead to the tendency to project own characteristics, like idiocy, unto others. Nice also of you to call this idiocy 'little'. This shows some selfcontrol. Or should I read it as such that you suppose I am a little person ? Again a disappointment for you: I am not. Isn't this a place to comment music, by the way ?

      I think you forget Carl Nielsen, who, before he was a well-known composer, he played trombone in some orchestras, so he knew well how to make the brass sound.

      Excuse me, but the trumpets, and the rest of the metals, as sound perfectly asks score. There is no abnormality in metals. Moreover, as is well known, the metals of German orchestras are always a separate chapter. The sound you get this fabulous orchestra is something perfect. Let us not forget that we are talking about the Vienna Philharmonic, which speaks for itself and presentations.

    • @cpthornman
      @cpthornman 8 років тому +1

      Fabius Graco He's right. There are plenty of videos out there where the trumpets make some pretty awful sounds. They have always been the most inconsistent section of the brass for as long as i can remember.

      Fabius Graco I havr numerous recordings and have seen numerous live performances on TV dating back to the 70's.
      The trumpets were always the weak spot in that orchestra.
