Berg: Drei Orchesterstücke ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ David Afkham 

the world is full of problems, but sometimes you just have to think of some of the amazing perfect achievements like this performance, the musicians , the composer, the fact that we can film it, and just to listen.

Berg is said to have declared: "There had to come a day when we could hear how a chord of eight tones really sounds in the brasses!" 16:19 , 18:14 , 19:32 , 21:25

Composed between 1914-15, when Berg was 30 years old, and revised in 1929. (Berg died in 1935.) This work was born during the first World War, and displays a frightening level of unrelenting intensity. I often think that this is what Mahler's music might have been like had he experienced and lived thru WW1. Powerful nervous gestures are piled upon gesture, and the result is extreme, maximum Sturm und Drang. In many respects, Berg was more avant garde in his orchestrations than either Webern or Schoenberg. So listen carefully, with earphones if you can. And watch this truly amazing performance, especially the percussion and brass.

Чудесная авангардная музыка! Большое спасибо Франкфуртскому оркестру!

Great piece, great performance and a particularly excellent 1st trombone.

Berg manages to fill avant-garde sounds with emotion like no other composer of his time.

Together with Schoenbergs Erwartung this is the most fantastic work of the second Viennese School!!!

Marvelous performance!!!! Bravos all round !!!

First time hearing this piece and what a delight to hear it so wonderfully performed. You really hear the spirit of Mahler in these works!

By far the finest performance on youtube, fully in the Karajan mindset.

(00:41) 01 Praeludium (05:48) 02 Reigen (11:46) 03 Marsch

Amazing piece, great perfomance

I think, Hindemith adored this piece

Beautiful 🎵🎵

Great piece!

wonderful

Buenísima versión.

Playing Berg must be like working a saturday night shift at a restaurant. 🥵

5:20 those first violinists glance when someone makes two strike of sound other than the low tam-tam

Fine performance! However if you'd like something special - find Bruno Maderna and NDR SO recording of thies pieces.

Spannende Aufführung dieses perfekt komponierten Meisterwerks mit ein bisschen bedrohlichen doch farbenreichen Tönen aller Instrumente. Der dritte Satz klingt besonders bedrohlich und echt spannend. Der geniale Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit völlig effektiver Dynamik. Einfach atemberaubend!

ベルクの作曲の弟子で哲学者アドルノは、この楽譜を見て「マーラーとシェーンベルクのオーケストラ曲を同時に鳴らしたような響きになる」と師匠に話した ベルクは満足そうだった

This piece is very difficult for the trombone

小品と言うタイトルなのに楽器編成がデカい！

7:35

ベルクは大編成のオーケストラ曲を少ししか作曲しなかった これと「初期の７つの歌」は大編成のオーケストラ曲 大編成のオーケストラ曲は演奏会で予算が高くなる

17:03

Totally Mahler🙄

Wer hört sich sowas freiwillig an....irre

Pfffff... Super boring...
