@@_zismo.flp_ narodil se u nás v Čechách a na té hudbě je to znát.. služka mu zpívala nápěvy českomoravské, z kraje, kde vyrůstal... kdo je odsud a vnímá hudbu, slyší to... jak blízké s pohádkou od Josefa Suka...
haha it's true, he might really seem like it. But in person he actually couldn't be farther from it. Such a loving person! What makes it even funnier in the end lol
Dilan Cruz that's true.Conductors are there to guide the ensemble and keep the beat but end up soaking up all the adulation.I suppose it's a matter of how narcissistic each conductor is as well where some are more annoying than the others. Late Karajan and Abbado were renown for getting maximum out of the orchestra with the minimum antics.Then there's Simon Rattle and Gustavo Dudamel!
The first time I heard this piece was in music appreciation class about 25 years ago. When the segment from 2:50 to 4:50 played, I was so touched that it made me cry. It could be my favorite segment of music of all time.
I was watching a documentary about the Amsterdam Philharmonic when I first heard this 25 years ago. First one double bass, then the whole section played this as a group, only bass. I cried like a child. My then girlfriend asked why I was crying and had fallen asleep bored with the music. I knew I had to break up with her there and then
You should listen to "Mara maje" a traditional song from Abruzzo, Italy! Tha composer did a trasposition of it!!! Il Lamento di una Vedova!!! Search it on the web or just listen this version ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x64JFIoUZDk.html
Didn't know that Professor X is a conductor ;-) (it also looks like in the video, as if he communicated with the musicians just talking in their minds)
When I was like 13 years old I had this radio next to my bed and I would put on classical at a low volume and would help me fall asleep. One night I woke up to the station being intercepted by sipping on some sizzurp and my life was forever changed. Still very beautiful in all aspects.
This is EXTREMELY good, but the combination of the gloomy melody and the conductor’s face might give me nightmares! It’s allmost bedtime for me, and listening/watching this for maybe 5 times in a row will most likely affect my sleep/my dreams , and most likely not in a nice way🤣🤣🤣🤣 but it IS a masterpiece , and the conductor IS a master !
This is the pice that made me fall in love with classical music, I was 12 then in music class, It was used to explain a canon and to see which instruments we could recognize also we had to play the first bit on the recorder we identified It as Mahler´s Frere Jacques as we also had to play the original one to, As a classical guitar teacher Im going to teach It to my students
Are you sleeping, are you sleeping, Brother John? Brother John? Brother John won't wake up, Brother John won't wake up, I think he's dead, think he's dead
The interpretation of MAHLER Symphonies by the ORCHESTRE DE PARIS under Direction of Christoph ESCHENBACH is one of the bests, to my mind. I recommend also Abbado with the Lucern Festival Orchestra.
This is absolutely magnificent. The first time I heard it, I said to myself :" I know a child song very close of it ... Of course Frère Jacques" So beautiful !
I am thrilled every time I go to this performance, I am amazed and impressed. The depth of this performance is beyond any words. Subtle, deep, detailed, grand! I love this video and this amazing performance. Great conductor and great musicians, they sound together like one body.
J'ai découvert cette oeuvre récemment à la Philarmonie et depuis je l'écoute, la ré-écoute, la ré-é-écoute et cette version est magnifique (et pas que ce mouvement !)...
Grazie a questo incredibile brano conobbi , ragazzino , Mahler e fu subito amore, il ricordo è indelebile ; tra l'altro , io e lui , siamo nati sotto lo stesso segno zodiacale , il Cancro. Eschenbach legge benissimo il brano non imprimendo quella fretta che troppi direttori danno a questo brano ; incredibilmente affascinante come guidi l'orchestra muovendo un sopracciglio ed increspando un angolo della bocca , e che occhi magnetici.
Look up the Oslo philharmonic’s recording here on RU-vid conducted by Klaus makela...excellent in both videography and interpretation, you won’t be disappointed!
I love this symphony.. Thanks so much for this wonderful recording, This piece is one of the reasons why I've decided to become a professional musician...
I heard it at the LA Phil concert with maestro Zubin Mehta conducting two days ago. It was a deeply moving moment. Thank you for sharing this Eschenbach performance!
La dirección y el trabajo de cámaras en esta versión es casi perfecto. Hacen de la experiencia de ver a Eschenbach dirigir un verdadero ritual de comunión (qué maravillosa versión del Titán).
Mon ami Eschenbach, et mon orchestre préféré...Que du bonheur cette version...Musiciens absolument magnifiques...J'écoutais ce jour là ..Moment de grâce.
Sounds like a jewish wedding dance just a lot more sophisticated. Saw this about a month ago in the Berllin Philharmonie with Gustavo Dudamel conducting. Still shivering....
You are correct. It is generally called a froelich ("Cheerful" in German and Yiddish). Some critics maintain that Mahler was quoting a Czech dance, but being that he was Jewish, I disagree.
Fabulous rendering of this movement. The section from 5:50 to 8:00, especially from 6:44, has been haunting me for days. I finally went to the piano to try to tease it out by ear. Had some success but the sutblety of the harmonic modulations and the movement of the inner voices are elusive. Mahler's harmonic genius never ceases to amaze.
Des chefs d'orchestre contemporains Ch. Eschenbach est l'un des tout meilleurs avec G. Dudamel (plus latin et démonstratif , magnifique à voir à la "Grange au Lac" ...) Mais, quel plaisir de voir içi Eschenbach exprimer par les mains, les yeux, le sourire...ce qu'il suggère à ses musiciens...dans ce très beau mouvement
i am a rocker,Iv'e never listened to classical before I mean really listened, but because of my cousin she loves to here mahler I like to here AC Dc ,its along way to the top, gone shootin, deep purple , 80's rock hard awesome fkn rock. My cousin said look up mahler,if you submerge yourself in his music its a story that can only be told by you, Its like a dream state, I now like classical music, I thought is was just a bunch of bs before. Now i want to here it in a concert setting. rocker to classical maybe i'm just getting old still love the rockers, just saying give the classical shot, with an opened mind, take a couple of hits the natural kick back open your mind and listen, incredible and I have not done lsd in 30yrs.
look up Barach rock. malmsteen does it. Steve vai and a lot more. the fact is when you stop to think about it most of these classical peices came from men under immense pressure at the cost of the lives from the royalty of their homelands. rockers just enjoy music. these guys usually staked their lives on it. it is truly one of life's more mature observations.
Musique saisissante, comme lors de chaque écoute de ces variations géniales de Mahler sur le thème de «Frère Jacques». Vidéo magnifique. Dommage que celle-ci s'interrompe de façon impromptue à la fin...
É impressionante como um grande compositor trabalha um canção popular, no caso "Frère Jacques", e a transforma numa incrível marcha fúnebre. A plasticidade da música é manejada por eles como se de fato, tivessem uma massa moldável. BRAVO à orquestra e ao regente, pela especial interpretação.
Mahler quel visionnaire !… l'air de nous dire "voyez ce monde aimable qui vous entoure, c'est celui qui va vous précipiter dans la tombe… quelques décennies avant l'avènement du 3e Reich. C'est vertigineux.

Since yesterday , this piece has been on repeat in my mind, and i have listened to it too, of course. It is a masterpiece ! But i can’t stop singing ”are you sleeping, brother John” in a depressed note and voice, either🤣🤣🤣 I do it in Swedish , of course, since im Swedish - speaking: ”Brooder Jaa-a-kob, brooder Jaa-a-kob...”🤣🤣🤣
Hi@@scizlt, It was Orchestre de Paris with Christoph Eschenbach as conductor, recorded in Salle Pleyel (Paris, France) in 2007. It sometimes happens that the French can also make it, sometimes ... ;) Bons baisers de Versailles ! Stéphanie :)
Does anyone else think his facial cues for the oboe are hilarious.....or is it just me? Also, the bass solo in AMAZING! I wish I could play it that well!
Excelent the quality of the sound: congratulations to the sound engineer in charge of the Magador Theater Hall acoustic system. The conductor allows the dark oscillations of the theme to be reflected in his countenance and body. It is a personal particularity in the act of conducting. 🎧
Très belle vidéo, nette. Ce mouvement est particulièrement facile à se souvenir et peut permettre de servir d'introduction pour faire connaitre Mahler ce génie à un jeune auditoire. En ce cas il ne faut pas hésiter à le faire chanter.
