Rachmaninow: 3. Sinfonie ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Andris Poga

[@lucasgust7720]

This symphony is so special and underrated.

[@mangomerkel2005]

Ach, Rachmaninoff! Wo wäre ich bloß ohne ihn?
Seine Musik ist einfach anders. Anders als alle anderen Komponisten.
Seine Musik berührt den Menschen in seiner Seele, in seinem Herzen.
Kein anderer Komponist schafft das.
Auch, und vor allem bei mir persönlich.
In den 2-3 Jahren, in denen ich ihn nun schon kenne, habe ich vieles erlebt.
Kummer, Leid, Freude, Liebe und vor allem Sehnsucht. In all diesen Momenten finde ich Zuflucht bei der Musik von Rachmaninoff.
Wie oft habe ich mich auf eine Parkbank gesetzt, in die unendlichen Weiten des Himmels geschaut und dabei sein zweites Klavierkonzert auf dem Handy abgespielt?
Seine Musik ist anders. Sie berührt mich in meinem Herzen und meiner Seele. Sie weckt Emotionen und Gefühle, die ich noch nie zuvor empfunden habe.
Für keinen anderen Komponisten wende ich so viel Zeit auf, um seine Musik zu hören, zu verstehen und sie am Klavier zu lernen (Videos davon sind auf meinem Kanal zu sehen).
Sei es nun das melancholische Trio zwischen Horn, Cello und Klarinette zu Beginn der Sinfonie, der ekstatische Gefühlsausbruch bei 4:05, der in mir so viele Emotionen und Sehnsüchte weckt, oder der herzzerreißende zweite Satz mit seinem wunderschönen Thema und den drei Höhepunkten bei 16:50 (vor allem der so simple, aber dennoch wunderschöne und emotionale es-Moll Akkord bei 17:03), 18:50 und 24:39.
Und diese Sinfonie steht ganz im Schatten seiner Zweiten! Generell bevorzuge ich seine früheren Werke, auch wenn ich den Opera 43-45 sehr viel abgewinnen kann.
Rachmaninoff, danke für alles!
Alles Gute zum 150.!

I know this symphony since childhood , heard hundreds of recordings and now as a man of 68, I can honestly say that I never heard it so transparant, so balanced and with so much musicianship as in this wonderful performance : great conductor, great orchestra ! My God I am really overwhelmed with joy by this ......

[@spactick]

me too, I live here in San Francisco and this morning our classical station KDFC played this piece. I was stunned at the amount of ideas that Mr.
Rachmaninoff has in this symphony. He's so confident and fluid with his variations on themes. It's a monumental piece that rivals anything by any
composer from any era

Andris Poga (born 29 June 1980, in Riga) is a Latvian orchestral conductor. From 2011 to 2014, Poga was assistant conductor to Paavo Järvi at Orchestre de Paris. From 2012 to 2014, he was assistant conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

[@hrh4961]

Thanks for that. Nice to know.

[@lightspeed174]

This is a marvelous performance. Very very well conducted and played. Also I must say, the sound and video quality are out of this world. Rachmaninoff would have proud. Thank you so much for uploading this for all to enjoy.

[@christianvennemann9008]

16:41 is one of my favorite parts. There's something about it that's just so mystical, serene, and sensuous at the same time, then gloriously melting into tender nostalgia. My other favorite part is 25:03. Just pure serenity and passion! I absolutely love this criminally underrated symphony!

[@joaoeduardoscanavinidavatz8406]

Da bin ich sprachlos. Einfach hervorragend! 💛

[@spactick]

These musicians are first rate. What a joy it must be to be in the middle of that orchestra hearing these masters at work

[@joachimkrist1464]

großartige Musik in einer fantastischen Aufführung. Bravo für Orchester und Dirigent. Vielen Dank fürs Hochladen!

[@davidrotter3076]

This conductor! What a big heart! What a lovely attitude to this music, to this marvelous team!

[@scuunjieng]

thank you for this deeply appreciated post. wonderful playing and interpretation. I have long been very fond of this symphony and find its relative neglect relative to no. 2 and the Symphonic Dances unjustified. I love the sunset glow of this work. hope to able to watch this orchestra live sometime

[@stevereade4858]

He exposes a lot of nuance and subtlety that's lost in many of the notable interpretations I've heard over the years. Refreshing!

[@josemanuelbreafeijoo1156]

Buen rendimiento de la Orquesta Sinfónica de Frankfurt. Y su primera flautista, siempre muy expresiva, es soberbia.

[@DanielKRui]

Been waiting for a high-quality video performance of this symphony for a long time (for many years the only videos on UA-cam didn't have live visuals, or had low quality video). The audio and musical quality is also excellent; there are many lines I can hear with crystal clarity in this performance that I didn't really notice before!

[@TheMikkis100]

Very true. This performance has also a lot of great expressions of the musical ideas that usually feel kind of muddled. With this one I think there is so much feeling in it.

[@scuunjieng]

I agree better tempo and phrasing than Jarvi which seems to be the only other video of this under appreciated Symphony on you tube

I. Lento - Allegro moderato - Allegro (0:03)

Se aprecia una orquesta feliz,y de mucho compañerismo.😊

[@alian9060]

best performance and camera work appreciate it!

[@timflatus]

Within the first minute of this I filled up with joyful tears and goosebumps! I have listened to this piece so many times and never heard such an incredible performance and production. It is one of my favourite pieces of music, so I am very fussy about interpretations. Sometimes you wonder whether the orchestra actually rehearsed, this version leaves one in no doubt they did. The attention to rhythmic detail is so important with Rachmaninov. Bravo and thank you!

[@TheVaughan5]

As always great playing from this orchestra. Paul Kletzki’s late 60’s recording will always remain for me the benchmark as he keeps up the momentum where most others fail. Having said that this is overall a really enjoyable performance of a great and somewhat underrated symphony by one of the 20th c greatest composers.

[@user-tu2cs3je2g]

Большое спасибо за хорошую музыку!!!!!! Успехов и здоровья!!!!!

[@alandavidson2053]

😊😊a refreshingly excellent performance

[@ronaldbwoodall2628]

I've always thought Rachmaninoff's Third Symphony, and to a lesser extent, his First, to be underrated in comparison to his more popular Second. The First is more dramatic and the Second is more Romantic, but the Third combines those two qualities in a most effective way. And did Rachmaninoff ever compose a more meltingly lovely melody than that of its finale (first entering at 2:17)? Great performance here by Andris Poga and the FRSO!

[@alexanfadel]

To me 38:53 part is the meltingly lovely melody. It just felt like very innocent, playfull, and felt like hoemtown very far away. Or even nostalgic😊

[@user-kb3zl1wt9b]

Чудесный концерт (и музыка, и исполнение, и исполнители)! Большое спасибо!

[@michaelmainusch7237]

Sehr schön, gekonnt auf hervorragendem Niveau!👍

[@spactick]

A roaring applause from here on San Francisco you guys. What a marvelous performance

[@late8641]

This symphony is a tour de force in variety, both in color and thematic material. I just searched the symphony on UA-cam, and to find out that Frankfurt orchestra has uploaded it two days ago was a massive stroke of luck to say the least.

[@notaire2]

Wunderschöne und lebhafte Aufführung dieser spätromantischen und perfekt komponierten Sinfonie mit farbenreichen doch perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Die Virtuosität aller Einzelspieler ist wahrhaft bewundernswert. Der intelligente und geniale Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Einfach wunderbar!

[@thestranger4761]

wonderful thank you

[@2010sjay]

Masterpiece!

[@dominiqueferraro8778]

Bellissimo ! Bravi !!!!

Could our experience with this orchestra be any better. Yes. How is that? Its now in UHD-4K!

[@spencersmith2798]

Fine.

Recuerdo que a mi papá, le encantaba esta sinfonía ❤😊 , Máravillosa versión. Saludos desde Argentina.

[@Mahlerweber]

Very elated performance. Nice job. Very difficult as a child [very poor....] to get a hold of orchestral scores. Rachmaninoff holds a special place for me, not because he's a favorite composer, but because the first orchestra scores I owned were his 3 symphonies and Symphonic Dances. On special at music store and my father purchased for me.

the second movement is silk made from god.

The Conductor is whiz bang good! Go on with your bad self‼️

I would have loved to be there so hard 🌳

[@maxlinder5262]

You would have been ..hard ...??? Strange use of words .... just my opinion..

[@INTERpEST]

@@maxlinder5262 English is not my mother tongue but I think I heard or read similar constructions with the adverbial use of hard.

[@ronaldbwoodall2628]

@@maxlinder5262 I believe he meant "so much", but that may have been strangely "hard" for you to understand. Perhaps you should stick to writing rather than reading; your interpretative skills seem to be negligible....but that's just my opinion.

[@aleksPval]

@@maxlinder5262In some languages the word «hard» means so much or a lot. For example polish MY language «mocno» means hard which i use in that context

Everyone knows the FRSO musicians are technically some of the finest; but the orchestra also displays immense innate musicality throughout. Under a sensitive conductor like Poga (musicians' delight) such talent provides a landmark Rachmaninov 3, as with their Rachmaninov 2 under Jensen, both totally overwhelming. These unequalled renditions will live on as a reference for posterity.

[@beethovensg]

Is this conductor a giant leprechaun?
