0:21 君が代 1:47 The Star-Spangled Banner Boston Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Charles Munch, Live in Japan May 4, 1960 NHK Hall (Uchisaiwai-cho, Tokyo)
This concert must have taken place after January 1, 1960 but before July 4, 1960. That is when the 50 star flag became the official flag of the United States of America. I say this because the US flag shown hanging on the concert hall only had 49 stars. That flag was the US national flag from July 4, 1959 to July 4, 1960. Amazing coincidence of history!?!?
Interesting! The concert took place on May 4, when the relationship between US and USSR deteriorated and US wanted to develop its relationship with Japan.
@@MuzBuz I believe the reason for the deterioration of relations between the US and the USSR was the downing of a US spy plane three days earlier on May 1, 1960 over russian territory and the political consequences that occurred afterwards between the two nations.
@MuzBuz. Thank you for uploading this excellent video on youtube. As BSO visited Taipei on April 1960, prior to its trip to Japan, I am wondering if there is also a video of Taipei's concert. Thank you so much~
君が代のこの始まり方良いな
なんとも凄いアレンジ！
This version of Japanese national anthem should be the default. It's magnificent.
Greetings my friend Charles munch and the b.s.o. one of the greatest
0:26 The Crown Prince Akihito and the Crown Princess Michiko
このミュンシュ指揮による「君が代」の編曲者をご存知の方、是非ともご教示願います。ご来臨の皇太子ご夫妻=今上両陛下もさぞや驚かれたと推察しますが？
Majestic version of the japanese anthem.
A touching gesture of solidarity with Japan a mere 15 or so years after the U.S. was at war with them.
I like Japan anthem

明日の千秋楽、そして、オリンピックもこのバージョンだったらいいなあ。何度でもききたいです！

Munch's interpretation of the Japanese national anthem somewhat sounds like Bruckner. One of the best renditions I've ever heard.
映像後半の皆様はヘの字みたいですが、確かに凄い解釈の君が代だ。
でも面白いです。
さすが当時の皇太子、皇太子妃殿下動じてませんが。
シャルル・ミンシュさんは、フランス作品で独特で個性的ですが
君が代（ベルリオーズ編）のようでインパクトはありです。
確かにへの字。でも面白い。美智子皇后さまも、びっくりな感じ。
1:47 The Star-Spangled Banner, not Stars and Stripes Forever
Thanks for the correction
良くも悪くもミュンシュの君が代ですね。
良くも悪くもアメリカンです。音楽でも支配された感じ。
Is that young Emperor Akihito watching?
Yes, but he was Crown Prince Akihito at the time, watching along with Crown Princess Michiko.
君が代と米国(アメリカ)国歌
君が君と米国国歌
君が代に打楽器はふさわしくない。
相応しくないって、昔も今も日本で一番よく使われるバージョンの編曲は、
「ちよにー」の部分から早速スネアドラムが登場し、しかもクレッシェンドして音だんだんと大きくなっていきますし
「さざれー」の部分で、バスドラムもさらに入りますよ。
打楽器使いまくってますが。
あれ相応しくないのですか？
@@user-nak7etahew
同意
1964年の東京オリンピック開会式の際の演奏は
その「さざれ」のバスドラムの人が待ちきれずに少し早めに飛び出していて
ついに来たオリンピックへの興奮を感じさせる何とも言えない良い味を出していますね
「ふさわしくない」とコメントしているコメント主は
太鼓が打楽器の一つであることすら知らないのかな
笑
This version of Japanese anthem is just cheap. Nothing comes to my heart.
