Thank you for this.
Excellent thanks.
13:42 Don’t forget the tremendous gong at the end. He really played extreme accents here.😮👏⚡️❤️
Right 13:16 just before the "twist" cadence (V dominant sol si ré >>> mi sol# si) !!! The tempo seems to fast for me for a "bolero danse"...Many thanks for the grid.
Insane and awesome that you did this!! Thank you 😊
To compose such a short piece (less than a minute), to be repeated 18 times changing only "decor elements" and instruments ... and you can never get bored no matter how much you listen ... MAN , that means GENIUS. I love Bolero of Ravel.
Completamente de acuerdo, la escucho muy repetidas veces,sensible y emotiva..
Absolutely agree 👍👍💯
How can the snare keep his concentration for so long. A total master piece!!!
Amazing...16/09/2023...14:53
Thank you for observing that part with the man making use of his singular snare drum. Thanks to you,.I hadn't noticed it, during the other times I've played/watched it ! Still 1 of my favorites. bye.
Sad that our technology (or door keepers) can’t eliminate the dreaded coughers and sneezers. What lovely music, have enjoyed it for 60 years!
That's his job.
Úžasná skladba jedna z nejkrásnějších na světě.
Barenboim not conducting at the beginning is the highest level of respect for his musicians that anyone can give. He is a true master, and the musicians are more than inspired by this. This is what gives us a truly stupendous performance!
How can you say he isn't directing, he brings each instrument in with a glance and nod of the head, giving a minimal Que for the timing he wants, but yes he then leaves the job of playing to his pro's and they are superb
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Oh no... He was definitely conducting. You do not need to flail your arms like a pompous idiot to be an effective conductor. Sometimes a facial expression, head nod, etc. is all that is needed.
Come on, you know what he means, they know by now what he wants and everyone obviously respects the ability of the other
@@snojetsst9420 karajan 😍
Few pieces give so many opportunities for individuals to shine. An orchestra is a being, the parts become one, as this shows in every way. A triumph.
This piece of music never fails to give me goosebumps and make the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end ❤
>> This piece of music never fails to give me goosebumps ...
@joannfisher9692
I wish I could say the same, but unfortunately I cannot.
Yes, this music definitely has that effect on me.
But only when I am actually *hearing* it.
Mis oídos se encantan y mi corazón late
I'm listening and watching the video of the performance and I too have goosebumps
I have goosebumps too. Bolero is my favourite Ravel piece.
I never get bored with this piece of music, just beautiful!
No
@@keikoomori4614 no
Al escuchar el Bolero de Ravel es simplemente motivo de prenderme y tener una actitud positiva todo el día y procuro escucharla todas las mañanas, lo máximo.
The tempo is perfect. Just the right balance between leisurely and urgency, assisted by a rock solid hypnotic snare--its amazing Ravel didnt think much of the work....its genius on a certain atypical level
ABSOLUTELY.awesome hey🤘♥️
Too fast
A little too fast for me. This is a sensual piece. This tempo feels more like trotting on a horse.
Si', la lentezza, la quasi assenza, la monotonia, la pazienza ipnotica, sono insiemi di suoni lontani che avanzano, e crescono crescono .
Incute incatenamento verso la magnificenza.
Listening to this music on a raining day, on the beginning feel so calm and peaceful but has great power on the end…..❤
Болеро это жизнь человека. Слушаешь музыку и ощущаешь, что начало её-это твоё рождение, затем детство отрочестао, юность взрослая жизнь. Финальные аккорды - это твоя заключительная жизнь. Равель только этим произведением уже себя обессмертил. Это музыкальное произведение великое и навсегда. Неустаю слушать любимое произведение. А денежек и оркестр выше всяких похвал. Браво маэстро
The part of this that inspires me the most is not what you might expect. The drummer has to maintain the rhythm above the sounds coming from all directions and as this piece builds, it must be difficult to concentrate fully on getting that exactly right and then bam! 2 drummers, perfectly in time with the piece and each other. Awesome.
the drummers patted each other at the end
Whew!
@@purrcatiper9283 "thanks for doing my job for me" lul, conductor is basically sidelined by the piece for most of it

Looped for 14 mins
Snare drummer has the hardest part of the entire orchestra in this piece.
❤de Niña me crie con musica clásica,,tengo 80 y siempre estoy escuchándola, para mi es lo máximo
The piccolo a parallel minor 9th above the melody never ceases to amaze me. I listened to this piece for years and never noticed it. Once I did, I cannot not hear it. How Ravel just threw in such a huge dissonance and hid it in plain view is yet another reason I love this piece so much. The greatest crescendo in history.
I heard that and always thought it was off but sounds so good at the same time
Yes yes yesss such a minor yet so important detail!
well it's a lot more than a ninth, like a 17th or or 25th something, which makes the main line's overtones much closer spaced, and so more able/likely to resonate with the piccolo'
s fundamental frequency. all in all, it makes for bizarre yet bizarrely pleasing listening experience, where the interplay over the main overtones with the ultrahigh fundamental makes for some weird auditory "illusions" of harmony, effectively hiding the wild interval in plain view as you said.
The horn and celeste are playing the main melody in C major. The two (2) piccolos are playing harmony in E major and G major. The resulting harmonies and overtones are sublime and sometimes mysterious to listeners.
Can any one pin time piccolo comes in there
Bravissimo!!! 👏👏👏🌹✨
How can someone write such an outstanding piece ?? Goosebumps all over listening to this timeless masterpiece. Wow.
Great violins and loved the oboe, but that cough solo really stole my heart.
it had a bass to it that just resonated with me.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
not worse as someone picking up the vibrating phone as I experienced.
do you Ean the English Horn(Cor Anglais?)
or the oboe d'amore?
This is a masterpiece.. The guy who wrote it Maurice Ravel was a genius
actually this is one of his tamest. try tzigane or la valse, per example.
Who is this guy? Did He wrote other pieces?... 🤔
He was actually going insane when he wrote this piece
@@sarachristie0 He had aphasia. He was not insane.
Omg by far the best version of this overture I have heard on UA-cam, simply an outstanding performance
Listen to Karajan and the BPO on UA-cam.
overture?
@@gvidalq No.
Ballet music.
Try 1971' s Celi version. Best I ever seen, period....
I have loved this piece since music lessons at Secondary school, when our music teacher played this beautiful piece and asked the class to identify each instrument as it came in. That was 60 years ago.
Tthe most beautiful interpretation of Ravel's Bolero
Heidi Horwell check out Andre Rieu's version. It's my favorite. The finale is magical
One of the best performances of this masterpiece.....
The seemingly dissonance works so well and brought to a climax at the end. Brilliant!
The seemingly dissonance? I speak good England!

I assumed that trombone solo was transparent to you?
@@obiwan88 Have always loved the trombone with the little dent in the bell.
Best version I've found on UA-cam...IMHO. And how can a piece of music be all at once so mechanized and yet so sensual? Great stuff!
You missing Daniel Barenboin best of the best perform .Sydney Australia more than10 yrs back. You Tube took back video.Try to get that concert and do no pay attention to the public just listen orchestra performant..It is wonderful..
Sensual? "relating to or involving gratification of the senses and physical, especially sexual, pleasure."
Inappropriate. Stay away from my kids you dirty UA-cam pervert.
Great performance. And a good example of the type of dynamically nuanced and tight performance that comes from a mutually respectful relationship between players and conductor. Barenboim doesn't patronise them by waving a stick at them for a hundred pages of the same rhythm, and they clearly observe and follow him when he 'grows' the music at each stage. Very satisfying performance!
Excellent performance presented by Orchestra and Mr. Barenboim . Best I've heard in so many years .
Bolero by orchestra in a real theater has been a bucket list item of mine.
Me faltan calificativos para expresar mi admiración ..es una verdadera delicia poder disfrutar de algo tan bello y maravilloso ¡ GRACIAS POR ESTE EXQUISITO REGALO!!
I was there that night and saw it live! We were in a trance for about 15 minutes when this was played. Excellent!
Allan bahati you are so lucky! I’m in California and not able to travel to see this :(
Well you should have slapped the ignoramus who was constantly coughing!
@@bobyorke 🤣🥰🤣
Did u tell the guy that was coughing to leave?
Pleasantness of Bolero is immeasurable profound, and an order of magnitude awsome
Bach and Mozart could have been the genius, but Ravel nailed it in Bolero. This is not a song; it's a real soul
Greatest piece of music ever written
Incredibil cat de frumos dirijorul si toti iinstrumentisti acestui bolero ai reda prin muzica lor sennzational le multumesc mult pentru acest lucrul.
The West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, where young Arabs and Jews perform and live side by side. For Daniel Barenboim, co-founder of the ensemble, the orchestra is a symbol for what could be achieved in the Middle East. Fantastic, what music can do; the way it can transcend cultural barriers, bring people together, defeat prejudice and overcome religious and political differences. Music can help people from different points of view find common ground.
With respect, the orchestra does not comprise Arabs and Jews, it comprises Jewish and Arab Israelis, other Arabs, Spaniards and other non-Arab people from the Middles East. I mention this to make the point that it isn't about Jews and others working together, it's surely about many peoples from the Middle East working together. It's a subtle but important difference.
o.k; you put it more precisely. English is not my native language, but I think the message gets across.
Perhaps they will someday perform with Peaceplayers International. The Ballet that is basketball. Among the children of Israel and the West Bank. As here, teammates.
Great if peace is ever going 2B possible in this world, agreed this composition would certainly help, music=powerful.%%%%%%
It certainly can but the problem in the middle east in particular are the religious zealous cretins who want to shove their superstitious nonsense down peoples throats creating hostility and inevitable wars
I saw this piece conducted by Barenboim at the Salzburg Music Festival, August 22, 2014. Best concert I ever saw.
O sorriso do maestro no final é impagável!!!
Such a joy for everyone this piece is. And I imagine one of the best pieces if it's your first time for live orchestra. The theme is more than clear, so it is pure accessibility. Then you get every section shown. Grab a spot above the stage where you can see all the musicians and instruments and that's a profoundly good time.
I can't go into any of the technicalities with this wonderful, inspired, and moving piece of music I just know that I absolutely love it.😊😊
Bolero ,jeden najwspanialszy utwór Ravela,znakomite wykonanie całego zespołu.Pozdrawiam całą orkiestrę.😮😮❤
Como posso me expressar depois de ouvir essa interpretação??? Só quem ouve o rio, pode ouvir o mar e só quem é livre na alma, coração e em sua caminhada na vida, pode fechar os olhos e ouvir e sentir essa magnifica interpretação. 21.outubro 2023
Condivido il tuo bellissimo commento .grazie .
This wind instrument is what I love about these compositions, just as Rhapsody in blue
Maestro Barenboim at his best ❤
Absolutely Brilliant.
The piece is great, Daniel Barenboim gives respect to all the musicians, the orchestra is great, and the performance is great. The other beauty is the photography of the concert that lets you understand the part of each and every instrument. Thanks
I completely agree… the camera work greatly adds to an already outstanding performance.
Sometimes the BBC knows what it's doing.
You bring me memories when me and grandfather spend time in Philharmoni...best time of my child hood 💓
Thank you
To najkrajšie Bolero ktoré som počula ďakujem orchestru 🤗
A beleza e encantamento de uma música não está na sua grandiloquencia instrumental mas justamente na grandeza da simplicidade de suas notas musicais. Walter - Brasil
Bassoonist is great; well, all very nice. Barenboim should be very proud of this wonderful group of young people.
Magnifique interprétation!! Daniel Barenboïm a une façon très personnelle de diriger l'orchestre, d'ailleurs au début il est surtout dans l'écoute, laissant jouer les musiciens...Bravo!
Recently just realized I am in love with classical music and I have to say Bolero is the main reason for that.
Try Rossini! Another Great!
Never understood why my Dad liked this type of music....being older and hearing Bolero I get it totally...so hauntingly beautiful !!!!
@@davidlogansr8007 Especially his overtures.
This suggestion is coming pretty late after the original comment; but I’d say that if Bolero is your entry point into classical music, you should start your explorations with some of the great Spanish composers: Granados, de Falla, Albéniz, Soler, Scarlatti (who basically ended up a Spanish/Portuguese composer even though he started out Italian). Then move on to the Spanish-inspired pieces of French composers such as Bizet, Debussy, and Ravel, followed by the general French repertory. Continue your exploration with music from the U.K., the Americas, Russia, and other countries; but save the German and Austrian composers for last, as those will probably take the most getting used to.
The Lark Ascending..... Every time.
To play the same snare pattern for 14 minutes takes real skill. To be focussing on the pattern...as well as the conductor later...is a sign of pure focus and professionalism.
Bravo! Very powerful perfomance! Strong,hypnotic ! One of the best !
Браво оркестру! Огромное спасибо тому,кто это снял на видео,хорошо видно,как инструменты один за другим вступают в это волшебство музыки Равеля.Это восхитительно!
A very, very exciting performance of this popular work. The way Barenboim builds up the tension is remarkable. I have heard many poor performances in the past, this is one of the best. What else do you expect from this Maestro and his beloved orchestra???
There is no other piece like Bolero. The only one off the top of my head in which the conductor is NOT the glue of the piece...that honor belongs to the snare drummer(s). Barenboim is right to just stand there and cheerlead.
Loved the director. Very layed back and let the orchestra do most of the work, and came in at the end. A cool dude !
Yes - he looked as if he was waiting for a bus for the first 6 minutes.
As much as anything, I think, he mostly controls just enough to rein in any over exuberance towards the end.
Jaw droppingly amazing. Best performance of Bolero ever captured. Well done, bravissimo, WEDO!!!
A total masterclass in arrangement. Two simple melodies on repeat for 14 minutes but it never gets boring because the instruments stack up in a very well thought out manner.
This piece plays like an unofficial Ghibli score. Such mystery and adventure in simplicity ❤
@7:00 , so cute to see that she is pregnant. These kids grew up together in orchestra, it’s inspiring to see them as a family, Arabs, Israelis and many other places.
Great job for making this fabulous piece of music! I love it!
When the violins come in playing the melody, they are very humble, where in a lesser performance they would feel that they should dominate. They blend in with the crescendo going on in the piece as a whole. It’s like nobody is trying hard to «lift» the music, it’s more like the entire orchestra is being lifted as a whole by another force.
Absolutely superb. ❤
BRILLIANT! Wonderful to see, hear, and experience. A great pleasure to see Dedicated, Professional musicians perform in classic form, as a classic of human artistry rings to the ear, and heart. Thank you all for the Perfection of Life at last. BRAVO from one in the USA.
Bob Clavile Listen to André Rieu's instrumentation... Probably better...
Bob Clavile Farandole
Just classic music at its very best and finest ever lets stop and appreciate this masterpiece of music the musicians deserve a lot of credit tons of it sadly you can do my job and I can't do your job much love and respect and appreciation job well done you should be amazed and proud way to go thanks !!Joe
My favourite piece.....done magnificently
Love this just stirs the heart and emotions, Daniel Barenboim best conductor,
To everyone complaining about the speed of this wonderful piece of music: Please calm down, keep your opinions to yourselves and enjoy the music; if I, here in South Africa, can enjoy it despite it's speed so can you.
Nate the beauty of it is that they keep adding more and more instruments
It's my favorite classic piece. Masterpiece
The Bolero at this tempo is robust and more enjoyable than the slower tempo. Bravo for the Divan!
DNA Leguillou same here in Paraguay.
Agree. I know Charles Munch conducted Bolero with Boston Symphonie Orchestra with you s speed.
This plays every night in bed, i drift to sleep every time. Wonderful composition.
Marcie Ravel is a genius. Beautiful compition.
I Just adore this, Ravel's Bolero is truly a Godly inspiration.
Very apt this was performed on the 30th anniversary year of Torvill and Dean skating to this iconic piece
Torvill and Den dancing to this piece is somethin you can never forget.
This piece of work is the most favored I have ever heard! It gets into my soul and keeps me wanting to hear it again and again!
A great piece of music.
Wow. Just moved me to tears. I've had this on 12" since I was a little girl but only just seen it performed and on UA-cam. Shocking! I will change that as soon as covid is in hand and people are performing again.
I always think of children in the Middle East who are deprived of beautiful music and live in a war zone ...... but beautiful music does manage to be made - this orchestra is one of the shinning lights of hope in our world.xx
maestro barenboim is one of the best conductors i ever saw
This is beatiful music. I love how it starts slow then builds up to great energy and passion.
One thing pops up in my mind : such a clarity. I've heard Karajan 1966, 1972, Munch from 1957, Amsermet from 1966.... this one still amaze me.... bravooo
I've always loved this piece. I've thought of it as one of the most ingenious pieces of music ever composed. It's reverse music!
Instead of keeping the instruments the same and varying dynamics, rhythm and melody, it keeps the dynamics, rhythm and melody the same and varies the instruments!
I've Heard this piece a lot of times, and since I got a "Instrument Cue" it was even better, as I could know what was happening always. But in every version I heard there was always something wrong: too fast tempo, not enough extreme dynamics or even not good sound quality for distinguishing the instruments!
This version has it all: Perfect dynamic, steady but not boring tempo and incredible sound quality. And what's even more: The entrances of the musicians are remarked by the camera! It's the perfect version.
"It's reverse music! Instead of keeping the instruments the same and varying dynamics, rhythm and melody, it keeps the dynamics, rhythm and melody the same and varies the instruments!"
Ravel himself described this as "orchestration with no music".
There's an anecdote about one performance. One version is that someone shouted, "This isn't music. This is ANTI-music!" Ravel supposedly answered, "That is the ONLY man who has understood this."
Ya~ and " Luischocolatier" obviously read the same wiki that YOU did. ("experts" my tail...)
Esse é o resultado de quando se juntam um gênio da música como Maurice Ravel com outro gênio que é o Baremboim o maestro e uma orquestra de primeira qualidade !!!
Para mi es magnifico ,,recuerdo haber oído está interpretación en el lago Leman y se pusieron los pelos de punta !!! maravillosa .
Daca incepem din cu circul chiar nu mai comentez ni
Nimic toaota lumea buna stie ca este o melodie magnifica
....... .
I can’t believe how Majestic and Beautiful this is! Maurice Ravel was clearly a Genius of the first order!
I always love the sound of the bazoon its beautiful :)
Dion Radimacher Me too! I love the bazoon even more than the bassoon!! 😉
Bassoon! 🙃🙄
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤va multumesc mult suprematie muzicala si spirituala ecaterina
Not too fast at all. Just listen to how this tempo allows each soloist to 'swing' the melody. Wonderful.
Ravel himself would have said it was too fast.
I totally agree sir. Perfect tempo, gives it the life it deserves. Most often played too slow.
🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@thomasthompson6378 Ravel himself said 72 to the quarter note - this is exactly that.
Precisely
Most beautiful piece in the the world. I am 75 & a big Black Sabbath fan from 1970 & the beatles plebs laughed at me.
Perfectly paced. Sublime
Hi-Hats off to that snare drummer....
I was raised on this type of Music sometimes my Dad had to get another Record because I wore out his he would roll his eyes your gonna drive e ME to drink! ! I only wish this the Opera that God's with this Wonderful Music!!!!!!!!! Thank You
A Perfect Ten!! 💎🎵
This is one of four performances of Bolero I've listened to in the past week, all were excellent but in terms of sound quality this is the finest I've heard thus far BRAVO
Very nice performance. Check out the snare drum players sharing a moment at 14:03-14:05....whew!
Yes! And they certainly deserve to!
one of the most majestic pieces of music. Why there are 281 dislikes will baffle me.
Does anyone remember the skaters - Torvill and Dean - who performed their final performance to this music? Their performance introduced many people to the music that only classical music buffs had experienced. Not me, but many. I have always been into this stuff - from infancy.
What is nice memory, Christine!! 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo. They were just GREAT. And Gold Medal, of course. Rgds!!
Yes of course I remember, I was 39 years old and didn't think much about the music. Bolero is my favorite now and watched Torvill and Dean last night on UA-cam!
It is the Torvill-Dean skating performance that introduced me to this wonderful piece of music. I bought a CD in which this was one of the tracks. I have listened to Bolero countless times and will listen to it forever.
Uma verdadeira aula de orquestração👏👏👏👏😍😍😍parabéns caro maestro BARENBOIM
The tempo is perfect! So often performed too slowly
I prefer this tempo too but Ravel actually intended it to be played far more slowly than this and got in altercations with other composers or conductors who tried to play it at this tempo. If interested, read the wiki article on this piece and listen to the recording as conducted by the composer himself embedded on the page.
@@alexcarroll9774 Never knew it before. Thank you.
Oh how I love this piece. It's magnificent.
So many people think this is a hackneyed, meaningless piece. It isn't - it really isn't! This is a sparkling, shining performance of a (IMHO) masterpiece. Fourteen minutes of pure joy. That girl bassoonist!
Notice her reed placement at 8:29. What is so interesting?
Not me. It's 14 minutes of the sojourn of the colours.
