Austrian conductor Manfred Honeck, renowned for his distinctive interpretations, is the International Classical Music Awards “Artist of the Year” 2018. With the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra he recorded symphonies by Beethoven, Bruckner, Dvořák, Mahler, and Tchaikovsky, winning the 2018 Grammy Award for Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5 and Barber’s Adagio for Strings. Mr. Honeck is passionate and personal in this exclusive conversation, which ranges from the role of both silence and dissonance in music - and in our lives - to the echo of Alpine folk music in Late Romanticism, and how art reflects and transcends life in Shostakovich’s symphonies.
What a wonderful man! I thank his father who knew what a great musical education could do for a human being.
😂😂😂😂
What a joy to watch this happy and beautiful Maestro Honeck. Thank you. 🌷🌷🌷(Netherlands)
Bravo Manfred Honeck! Great views and great character! Danke Herr Honeck!!!
Your channel's existence makes me happy. I recognize the amount of effort it takes to invite some the world's leading musicians together, research their personal and educational lives, ask deeply penetrating questions, edit each episode with excellent videography... only for us to enjoy. From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you. We appreciate your efforts.
God bless great Manfred Honeck
The great man
I love what Honeck says about the truth at the end. Good interview.
His words on dissonance and the need to heighten it for our contemporary ears returns the audience to the original shock value first intended by the composer. The maestro is a delight. Love his recorded performances. Pittsburgh is VERY lucky to have him. A great orchestra ennobled even more by his stewardship. Thanks, Zsolt and Peter!
Saw him tonight with Joshua Bell... great show. I find his interpretations almost universally superior to most other conductors. I have no doubt that when his (hopefully) long career is over he will be regarded among the very best of composers.
Manfred is definitely the kind of person with whom I'd love to chat with for a few hours in some fine restaurant somewhere (maybe in the Alps : > )
What an absolutely wonderful and riveting interview. Thanks to everyone who made it possible for us to enjoy.
I Love Him!
The best Beethoven no 7 I have ever heard in the last 70 yrs is with him and the Swedish Radio Orchestra (apart from a minor pizzicato blunder at the end of the 2. mvmnt) Gorgeous.
“Is it true what we do?” This is both a profound and riveting interview and I feel it in his playing. The through-line from Carlos Kleiber is worth pondering. Thank you so much!
I'm so glad to found your program. Enjoy every conversation with great musicians deep insights reaching the conclusion of the essence of music. Love. Ich liebe dich.
Ah C Kleiber, knew it :) What a wonderful interview. So illuminating for Manfred 🌿
Genius.
I heard him live in Germany 2 days ago. The most incredible Bruckner 9th I have ever heard....
What a speech!!!! Awesome work!! please keep it up!
I love your channel! It has been educational, enlightening and entertaining. I hope you continue to bring these high quality interviews to the public!!
Very interesting interview.
Loved it.
I know I shouldn't but I see C Kleiber in him, and its marvelous 🔥🔥🔥
I really enjoy every episode that you guys uploaded! So inspiring!
- a huge fan from S. Korea
I wish every episode had subtitles so that many korean music lovers could watch! Hopefully I want to translate some of them sometime soon.
To Zsolt. You look so good in the jacket!!
This channel is so wonderful. Thank you SO much for these excellent interviews.
It would be great to do one with the soprano Barbara Bonney. She is someone who reached the top, who says she would not choose the same career again.
Closest thing we have to Carlos Kleiber.
So shut up!
