This is what we must design, no doubt, no hesitate an outstanding performance. Since I began to be fan of HR FRANKFURT Sinfonie, the emotion to listen any composer's music has grown up to the highest level. First, the musicians are all of them really soloists: I have heard them during the worst of coronavirus. Second: maestro Andrés Orozco-Estrada goes into the deepest feelings of the composition which ever it is. And, last but not least, the recordings and Filmings are possibly the best to be listen and watch. CONGRATULATIONS to everyone in HR FRANKFURT Sinfonie. Viel Danke. Muchas gracias, thanks a million 👋👋👋👋
It seems that the last movement of 8th symphony has some similar rhythms and playfulness as Dvořak´s Wind serenade of the last movement.... Also, 2nd movement of 8th symphony may be a version of the wind serenade... Watch the video of Conductor Estrada and the wind serenade.
This conductor is one of my favorite conductors and one of the best. The Frankfurt Radio orchestra these past 4 years has become one of my favorite orchestra. In the 70's I auditioned for this same orchestra
Grazie maestro Andrés, grazie a tutti. Dopo una giornata di 12 ore di ambulatorio Covid mi avete donato gioia e ristoro. Siete una comunità di amici che suonano con una unità e un entusiasmo commoventi. Grazie maestro per la sua intelligenza e umanità musicale. Grazie ancora, avanti così....
The odd irony that I discovered this incredible orchestra in lockdown and I would now travel to Frankfurt in a heartbeat to see it led by Andres Orozco-Estrada and yet can't. Thank you for your high-quality commitment to sharing the art of the composer and the artistry of the performers
Orozco-Estrada is now the principal conductor of the Houston Symphony Orchestra. And he’s just as good in Jones Hall as we was in Frankfurt (although I love recordings made with him at the podium of that orchestra, too). I hope Houston might be a little more doable.
@@terrylindsay2386 The Houston orchestra is certainly good, from what little I've heard, but I'm saddened at this move. The synergy between orchestra and conductor, combined with stunning musicianship here, I suspect may not quite be matched in Houston. I hope I'm wrong.
@Alcina Thank you for taking the time to give me this information. I had no idea of the details of his connection with Houston (obviously). His work with the Frankfurt orchestra has been brilliant - including a great Mahler 2 so Houston can expect a memorable finale. I wonder why he resigned from Vienna, also where he will go next? I do hope we see more of him online.
@Alcina Hi Alcina, And I would be number two. He is at home with just about every facet of orchestral music and with the Frankfurt orchestra, in my opinion, out -performs the Berlin ensemble - more warmth, and a feeling of youthful spontaneity with even the deepest works. The Weiner Symphoniker is brilliant but rather traditional, so I rather think there could have been a clash in the general approach to performances and interpretation. Just guessing.
By far the finest performance of this symphony that I've heard to date. In saying that, there isn't a work that I've heard from this orchestra that I haven't thoroughly enjoyed listening to.
@@MisterPathetique A million times better? Both recordings are fantastic, but I actually like the one with Orozco-Estrada a little more! I don't think the third movement here can ever be topped.
@@Failentin Of course I was exaggerating to make my point. This performance is not horrible, but I don't find it particularly good either. I don't think Orozco-Estrada has a lot of feeling for this music, and it shows right in the opening: the cellos should be leading, but here they're kinda drowned out. The third movement didn't impress me either, the melody tends to disappear because of Orozco-Estrada's random dynamic adjustments and tapered phrasing. But the worst thing to me is the general lack of energy and accent, and the flabby rhythm throughout the piece. And to be honest Orozco-Estrada is not helped by the overly compressed sonics either. I mean just compare the development section of the first movement or the very conclusion of the symphony with Honeck's performance, you'll understand what I'm talking about. Besides Honeck, I suggest you listen to Davis/Concertgebouw, Dohnányi/Cleveland, Neumann/Czech Philharmonic or even Karajan/Vienna Philharmonic. And then come back to Orozco-Estrada, you will immediately hear what's lacking in his performance. And please never assume that a performance "can't ever be topped". We can ALWAYS do better. Otherwise, why should we even bother playing this music?
I listened to this piece in the the last concert before the Covid Lockdown early this year, which is also my favourite concert in my life so far. Miss these old days.
TLDR: Bravo! I've only been had classical music in my life for maybe a litter over a decade now and mostly used Berlin Phil, Vienna Phil, and a few American orchestra as a references. But this orchestra easily one of my go-to's as of recently to listen to just for the sheer amount of energy these awesome musicians share among each other. It's something about the sound, balance, and direction of their playing that has had me hooked on them for a quite some time now.
The old #4 was the first piece of orchestral music I ever played as a high school grad. What I like about this particular orchestra is that the personnel seem to be having so much fun.
At his best, Andrés Orozco-Estrada is a top flight conductor - and he and the Frankfurt Radio Symphony are a wonderful partnership. This performance in many ways outclasses many of the performances of more "famous" orchestras - but this orchestra deserves to be considered in the same conversation as those orchestras. Many great conductors and orchestras have recorded the Dvorak 8th Symphony, but few have the combination of drama, intensity, beauty and charm. When life returns (hopefully soon), this work is an excellent one for the pair to tour with and show how magnificent this partnership is.
Personally, my favorite for this piece specifically is the performance recorded by Karajan and the Vienna Philharmonic in the 1980s, but the Frankfurt Radio Symphony always does deliver!
In many ways this is my favourite Dvorak symphony. He's reached his mature style in his most personally expressive way. He's freed himself from "Brahmsianisms" here. Just pure Dvorak..
The second movement is remarkable. I love the flexibility of tempo between the simple flute motto (pushing forward) and the clarinet duet (lingering). These musicians have made my quarantine.
Yes, I've heard this symphony a million time and this immediatelly caught my attention! I've never heard it performed like that, which is strange, because it sounds so natural and logical.
Extraordinari concert. En plena pandèmia pel COVID, la gran orquestra de Frankfurt ens ofereix una grandiosa actuació. Amb un dels millors Directors actuals. Sense presuncions, amb el seu treball, ANDRES OROZCO-ESTRADA ens fa gaudir de la música ben interpretada. Fóra del seu gran Alpe oper. Felicitacions Sinfonieorchester, i mestre Orozco-Estrada.

Vielen Dank für Ihren wunderbaren Eindruck! Alles war großartig, vor allem aber das Solo des Konzertmeisters im zweiten Satz. Es war der beliebteste Ton, den ich je gehört habe.
It would seem this Colombian fellow works with different music scores: Under his conducting, I can hear melodic lines of different instruments that I can not distinghish or hear with any other conductors. ¡Bravo!
I have performed this piece several times on 1st Horn - including with the Vienna Symphony (not the Philharmonic! :-) ) I really like this performance and yes, the conductor finds details that are often lost in the cascades of sound.
Agreed: This is the loveliest rendition of this solo that I've ever heard. He has matched his vibrato and bowing and phrasing perfectly to the needs of that musical moment. Refined, yet lush. I'd love to hear much more of his playing.
Wieder ein fantastisches Konzert des HR-Sinfonieorchesters, vielen vielen Dank dafür! Leider war diesmal mein Lieblings-Fagottist nicht dabei, war aber akustisch für mich nicht wahrnehmbar. ;-)
Always have to chuckle at the beginning of the third movement because of how often it's used in Twoset's videos XD. Wonderful and capturing performance!!! Love the tension in the first movement.
@@MisterPathetique I've compared the two, over two days, and I believe you're right. Honeck is less athletic on the podium, but he gets the depth in the energy of the piece - i.e. exciting but not superficial - in a way which I don't think Orozco-Estrada quite does; though it remains a pleasing performance, and Estrada is still quite young and has room to develop.
Hoje temos mais de 514 mil.mortos aqui.... país à deriva....mas, enquanto houver Arte, estaremos seguros... parabéns para todos desta orquestra e grato pelos momentos que nos trazem alívio a tanto sofrimento.... abraços gratidão desde RioJaneiro.Brasil....continuem....por favor
They have face nask. Next time (when we are in the "old) (???) Situation all audiance must wear face-mask. (Lol or no lol?) to listen better to the full value of the music.
Wunderschöne und lyrische Aufführung dieser spätromantischen und ethnisch komponierten Sinfonie mit gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der dritte Satz klingt besonders schön und echt lyrisch. Der intelligente Maestro dirigiert das kompakte und ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut phrasierten Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Einfach wunderbar!
The concert performances of the last 3 Dvorak Symphonies led by A O-E and the FRS are, imo, in the same class as those led by George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra recorded in the late 1950's and Istvan Kertesz and the LSO. Before he left Frankfurt I wish he had led a performance of the Dvorak 6th. Similarly I hope he leads performances of the Brahms Serenade #1 and the Schumann Symphonies during his tenure in Cologne. These concert videos are uniformly of the highest quality with superb ensemble playing and never a sign of the jaded playing which seems to infect so many supposedly top-notch orchestras. I always look forward to A O-Es returns to Frankfurt!
Dvorak's melody is full of nostalgia and comfort . These performers and a prestigious conductor express Dvorak's aesthetics skillfully . Dvorak's work has a strong spirit , And Dvorak has an indomitable soul to confront his own misery . Dvorak is great and effulgent From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵 Which national are you watching this video ？

The number of the infected people is gradually decreasing , Be on the alert for Covid - １９ Cheer up ！ Someday please visit Japan distinguished Four Seasons and Japanese delicious foods wait for you Good luck ！
Una maravillosa interpretación de la orquesta y genial dirección de la música. Este director expresa gran energía y control, es buena representación del continente americano allá en Europa.
Como siempre, también ahora, Sinfoniorchester no defrauda nunca... Y Andres Orozco-Estrada un GRAN Director. Mejor que las "vedettes" Gergiev , Dudamel y Rattle.
Meilleur, je ne saurais dire et la musique n'est pas un sport mais une chose est certaine : Andrés Orozco Estrada est un grand maestro et sa conception très humaine de la direction d'orchestre nous comble un peu plus chaque jour.
May I please enlist the help of a German music-lover, and a lover too of this wonderful orchestra? In the UK I am constantly amazed by the beauty and skill of this orchestra... my question is... amongst German orchestras is the HR Symphony Orchestra given the full status and appreciation by the musical public that it deserves? I really would like to know... my thanks in advance.
When I studied Bassoon in Germany about 11 years ago HR wasn't considered one of the "high status" big orchestras where I was. Sure, being a radio orchestra in Germany is and has always been a big deal, but at my College all light was on Berlin Phil, Bayrische Rundfunk, NDR Hamburg, and maybe WDR cologne and Munich Phil. I haven't been back to Germany for a very long time, but the recordings they put on UA-cam are held in the highest regard by many musicians here in Sweden. Not only the orchestra and conductor, of course, but also the production as a whole. Sound quality. Video. Everything. We played Beethoven's 4th symphony recently and I used HRs recording while preparing my part. Their musicality and spirit is, dare I say in these times, contagious.
@@LinusBerglund Dear Sir, thank you so much for your very charming and informative reply... it is much appreciated. And from a professional musician as well... you expressed what I had thought, but I am so overwhelmed by this orchestra... thankfully I have seen and heard all the great orchestras you mention across the years, and I see the HR orchestra as equal to their standing. I cannot wait for the virus to go, so I can go from London here to Frankfurt to hear them. Again thank you for your very nice reply, written in very elegant English.
I preach them but haven't heard anyone talk about them. Andres Orozco Estrada will be the head conductor at Vienna Philharmonic next year on 2021 though.
@@awakenedbahamut2574 Dear Sir I believe he is going to take over the Vienna Symphony orchestra, not the Vienna Philharmonic. But no matter..... his influence will further elevate the standing of this fine orchestra in Vienna.

All her solos were magnificent! Dvořàk surely wrote beautifully and often powerfully, with lots of surprises for anyone listening for the first time!
Wonderful, standout solos.😍😍😍
That you for your wonderful videos. I am enjoying them with my grade school students, as we are studying Dvorak.
so glad I found this channel!
Me too. Been watching for hours all day.
I love how much fun he has in M3. It's one of my favorite scherzo movements ever!
오 ! 👍

최고의 연주 감사드립니다. 트롯신
It would seem this Colombian fellow works with different music scores: Under his conducting, I can hear melodic lines of different instruments that I can not distinghish or hear with any other conductors. ¡Bravo!
I have performed this piece several times on 1st Horn - including with the Vienna Symphony (not the Philharmonic! :-) ) I really like this performance and yes, the conductor finds details that are often lost in the cascades of sound.
Oh my favorite concertmaster! love his solo 14:26 with him the orchestra has another energy.
Thank you so much for your kind words!🙏😃💚
@P1xlz Thank you so much for your kind words!!🙏🙏☺️

Agreed: This is the loveliest rendition of this solo that I've ever heard. He has matched his vibrato and bowing and phrasing perfectly to the needs of that musical moment. Refined, yet lush. I'd love to hear much more of his playing.
A wonderful listening experience - thank you
Wieder ein fantastisches Konzert des HR-Sinfonieorchesters, vielen vielen Dank dafür! Leider war diesmal mein Lieblings-Fagottist nicht dabei, war aber akustisch für mich nicht wahrnehmbar. ;-)
Видео, операторская работа, монтаж - все экстра-класса! Великолепно!
Wow, I love the interpretation of the longer descending notes from 22:48 compared with from 22:53 .... pure beauty!❤
Always have to chuckle at the beginning of the third movement because of how often it's used in Twoset's videos XD.
Wonderful and capturing performance!!! Love the tension in the first movement.
There is no better performance of this piece...brilliant!
Manfred Honeck performed it with the SAME orchestra and it's literally a million times better. Check it out, it's also on UA-cam.
@@MisterPathetique I've compared the two, over two days, and I believe you're right. Honeck is less athletic on the podium, but he gets the depth in the energy of the piece - i.e. exciting but not superficial - in a way which I don't think Orozco-Estrada quite does; though it remains a pleasing performance, and Estrada is still quite young and has room to develop.
@@RobertJonesWightpaint I wholly agree with your analysis.

Hoje temos mais de 514 mil.mortos aqui.... país à deriva....mas, enquanto houver Arte, estaremos seguros... parabéns para todos desta orquestra e grato pelos momentos que nos trazem alívio a tanto sofrimento.... abraços gratidão desde RioJaneiro.Brasil....continuem....por favor
Thank you for such an excellent performance!
Ein hervorragendes Orchester! Die Soli der Flötistin gefallen mir ganz besonders
I love the second clarinet player, he is so into the music! as it should be!
Wow - great performance and brilliant sound recording. Most UA-cam performances have poor sound quality but this one stood out. Bravo!
Finally nobody is caughing since there is barely an audience!
They have face nask. Next time (when we are in the "old) (???) Situation all audiance must wear face-mask. (Lol or no lol?) to listen better to the full value of the music.
It'really true, but performers love audience because it gives them energy, fire and even inspiration to play "with life".
@@eduardoxavier7878 Yeah for sure. That whole "pandemic" is a farce and I feel for all the artists that suffer under the sanctions.
@@lele9exlYou are right! Artists love public applauses!

Wunderschöne und lyrische Aufführung dieser spätromantischen und ethnisch komponierten Sinfonie mit gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der dritte Satz klingt besonders schön und echt lyrisch. Der intelligente Maestro dirigiert das kompakte und ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut phrasierten Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Einfach wunderbar!
klingt wie meine schulaufsätze, wenn ich ne 1 brauchte...
@@M4r1a_Schn33 Viele Schulaufsätze brauche ich.
@@notaire2 Go on, notaire2. Schön wenn’s dir so gut gefällt! 👍🏻😎
@@mz4802 Thanks for affirmative comment!
A charming symphony wonderfully performed. I almost forget Covid. Thanks a lot
Amazing quality, both video and audio! I have never heard another dvorak 8 as crisp as this!
6:59 Gut strings!? You gotta love to see it, especially in a modern orchestra!
I didn't even notice. Thanks for the information.
The concert performances of the last 3 Dvorak Symphonies led by A O-E and the FRS are, imo, in the same class as those led by George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra recorded in the late 1950's and Istvan Kertesz and the LSO. Before he left Frankfurt I wish he had led a performance of the Dvorak 6th. Similarly I hope he leads performances of the Brahms Serenade #1 and the Schumann Symphonies during his tenure in Cologne. These concert videos are uniformly of the highest quality with superb ensemble playing and never a sign of the jaded playing which seems to infect so many supposedly top-notch orchestras. I always look forward to A O-Es returns to Frankfurt!
Awesome ending, i love Dvorak.
30:14 this flute solo is quite bears quite a delicate and jovial melody; I admire this section most out of the symphony
0:19 begins | 4:22 repeat intro | 7:16 heroic section | 10:41 2nd movement | 21:38 3rd movement |
27:46 4th movement (green ranger) | 37:45 ending
HRSO and Orozco-Estrada never disappoint
Dvorak's melody is full of nostalgia and comfort .
These performers and a prestigious conductor express Dvorak's aesthetics skillfully .
Dvorak's work has a strong spirit ,
And Dvorak has an indomitable soul to confront his own misery .
Dvorak is great and effulgent

Thank-you so much to your comments
We know the situations of the UK on the TV
Hang in there ！
Be on the alert for Covid - １９
The season of blooming cherry blossoms has come again in Japan .
This season is marvellous , glorious and beyond your imagination for the cherry blossoms in full bloom everywhere in Japan , (parks , hills , mountains , on the banks of rivers , various gardens , domestic Bonsai
and etc. )
However ,
for the second year in a row ,
just like last year , when we felt lonely to prevent Covid - １９
the banquets in famous public parks under the cherry blossoms in full bloom have been perfectly banned ,
The Rite of Spring peculiar to Japan from １０００years ago can no longer be held .
We are very lonely and unfortunate .
This year too , the cherry blossoms are destined to fall lonely in front of us .
The true cherry - blossoms viewing , shortly speaking ,
the true banquet under the cherry blossoms in full bloom is to lay rugs under the cherry blossoms in full bloom and sing and dance with eating various Bento and drinking Japanese sake , beer , Japanese shochu , wine ,etc .
The number of the infected people is gradually decreasing ,
Be on the alert for Covid - １９
Cheer up ！
Someday please visit Japan
distinguished Four Seasons and Japanese delicious foods wait for you
Good luck ！
Love the end of the second movement. Like a weight being lifted off your shoulders.
Simplemente hermoso :')
Joyous! Bravo. 15:38
Fantastic performance!
Wonderful Symphony~♡
Excelente Gracias
Muy pulcra la interpretación. Me encantó
참 좋습니다.
thank you for the music :)
I think the concert hall reflects their sound better than ever before :) I checked my ear buds cause I never heard this kinda record quality Lols
Concertmaster and Flautista are rock stars.
Una maravillosa interpretación de la orquesta y genial dirección de la música. Este director expresa gran energía y control, es buena representación del continente americano allá en Europa.
Increíble interpretación!
Well, this was a definite surprise.
Como siempre, también ahora, Sinfoniorchester no defrauda nunca... Y Andres Orozco-Estrada un GRAN Director. Mejor que las "vedettes" Gergiev , Dudamel y Rattle.
Meilleur, je ne saurais dire et la musique n'est pas un sport mais une chose est certaine : Andrés Orozco Estrada est un grand maestro et sa conception très humaine de la direction d'orchestre nous comble un peu plus chaque jour.
Super !!
May I please enlist the help of a German music-lover, and a lover too of this wonderful orchestra? In the UK I am constantly amazed by the beauty and skill of this orchestra... my question is... amongst German orchestras is the HR Symphony Orchestra given the full status and appreciation by the musical public that it deserves? I really would like to know... my thanks in advance.
When I studied Bassoon in Germany about 11 years ago HR wasn't considered one of the "high status" big orchestras where I was. Sure, being a radio orchestra in Germany is and has always been a big deal, but at my College all light was on Berlin Phil, Bayrische Rundfunk, NDR Hamburg, and maybe WDR cologne and Munich Phil.
I haven't been back to Germany for a very long time, but the recordings they put on UA-cam are held in the highest regard by many musicians here in Sweden. Not only the orchestra and conductor, of course, but also the production as a whole. Sound quality. Video. Everything.
We played Beethoven's 4th symphony recently and I used HRs recording while preparing my part. Their musicality and spirit is, dare I say in these times, contagious.
@@LinusBerglund Dear Sir, thank you so much for your very charming and informative reply... it is much appreciated. And from a professional musician as well... you expressed what I had thought, but I am so overwhelmed by this orchestra... thankfully I have seen and heard all the great orchestras you mention across the years, and I see the HR orchestra as equal to their standing. I cannot wait for the virus to go, so I can go from London here to Frankfurt to hear them. Again thank you for your very nice reply, written in very elegant English.
I preach them but haven't heard anyone talk about them. Andres Orozco Estrada will be the head conductor at Vienna Philharmonic next year on 2021 though.
@@awakenedbahamut2574 Dear Sir I believe he is going to take over the Vienna Symphony orchestra, not the Vienna Philharmonic. But no matter..... his influence will further elevate the standing of this fine orchestra in Vienna.
@@antoineduchamp4931 yes.
Great!!!
Superb!
