Brought to you by he German public who has to pay a mandatory monthly fee for public broadcasting services. This is just our money brought to good use.
@@manfredmueller1125 Hallo Manfred danke für die Anmerkung, aber ich frage mich, woher wissen Sie das und wie ist es dann zu erklären , dass nur der Hessische Rundfunk solch einen Service für Classic Fans bietet?
Der hessische Rundfunk wird wie alle öffentliche Medien in Deutschland durch die GEZ, welche durch alle Haushalte in Deutschland gezahlt wird, finanziert. Klassische Sender gibt es so ziemlich in jedem Bundesland, bloß bezweifle ich, dass es wie hier immer Bildmaterial dazu gibt und sich eher nicht für eine Videoplattform wie RU-vid eignet. Ein anderer Grund könnte sein, dass Personal und/oder Interesse seitens der anderen Sender nicht ausreichend sind.
We must not forget to thank the people behind the scenes, the ones never to be seen, but but of uttermost importance - the sound engineers and technicians! They make it possible for us to hear this gem, this diamond of a symphonic work! One billion thanks from me! I have never heard an orchestra that sounded better than this one!
I could not, at all, agree with you more. This is a fabulouos orchestra, which seems to get better and better. Glad you mentioned their sound engineers... this sound is of the very best quality! On my system is competes with any CD
I was at a concert on September 12th 2001, and instead of the planned opening piece, they played this 2nd movement. It communicated an amazing combination of sadness and hope.
It was my grandmother funeral piece in my 13 yo and my heart is still there with her and my memories, although I'm 44 yo, when I listen to 2nd movement.
Stunningly beautiful performance. Maestro Eschenbach has the orchestra take its time with this piece. So often other conductors want to rush, rush, rush through the music which results in muddling and miscues especially at the very end with the da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da where Maestro Eschenbach chose to slow that down with a second pause between notes da--da--da--da--da--da--da---da. Much more pleasant to listen to, while picking out individual instruments as they are played! This is by far my favorite rendition of the 9th and has earned a spot on my download playlist. That spot was previously held by Mariss Jansons but he too, rushed through the music. Bravo one and all!!
This is just fantastic playing of a work of transcendant genius. The closing bars of the 1st movement are a supremely clever, and an emotionally rip-roaring organic synthesising of the movement's alternately heart-breaking and heaven-storming melodic and rhythmic figures. The same compositional class as Wagner's Prelude und Liebestod from "T und I" .... but a world apart in pure angelic generosity of love. The Magician of Bayreuth has the most corrupted, cynical and jaded philosophical understanding possible, of our human folly and tragedy. Like Dante and Shakespeare in a very bad mood. Whereas, Dvorak seems to have had an unlimited access to recollections of childhood "oceanic" feelings of bliss, and love, and goddess-like protection, dispensed by our ideals of motherhood and womanly kindness. Furthermore, he managed to blend this with a "Naturkind" entanglement with a magical sense of The Whole Organic World, and with the overwhelming joy and protectiveness of figures I shall call Gaia and Kali Ma. This is a real Bohemian sensibility of the Woodlands and spirit world - indeed a clear panpsychicism conjoined with absolute love and absolute dissolution of the ego. And for those with open ears and hearts, this is wrapped within a very high degree of sensuous quasi-erotic tenderness. Not that genitally-focused reproductive "hot hot hot" reproductive eroticism of heterosexuality...but that feeling of the "melting of oneself", with unstoppable altruism and surrender into each other's conjoined being. This perhaps is the true meaning of the Hiawatha melody. There are many who sneer at Dvorak's open heartedness, as if no adult could live with this intensity of childlike emotional expressiveness. More fool them...because they in fact have lost the secret of love and playfulness and communion with the divine, and they foolishly care not about their treasures of the heart being so squandered away. Dvorak is so charmingly and lovingly brilliant. It is difficulty to hear his music and not be in tears of ravishing delight and melting tenderness. To look from one windows in the arms of ones beloved, and imagine one sees not the bustling city, but the jungles of paradise with the bird song of heaven! A distant, womanly, goddess voice, carried on the richest brass chorales, calling, "Come dance with me, and with the tigresses of burning eyes, and with my sleek black panthers, come my beautiful children, dance and sing before tumbling sparkling waterfalls, in sunlit glades of transcendent bliss, for ever!" Dvorak knew that voice, and so can we if we listen carefully. Love andrea
Beautifully played. Your Symphony Orchestra is consistently one of my favourites. You so often capture the subtleties of the music that is often missing in other interpretations. Thanks for sharing your beauty with the world❤
Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführung dieser spätromantischen und ethnisch komponierten Sinfonie mit gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Das englische Horn im zweiten Satz klingt echt schön und auch nostalgisch. Im Kontrast klingt der letzte Satz echt lebhaft und auch überzeugend. Der intelligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im relativ langsamen Tempo und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Wahrlich hörenswert!
For the opening of the new Pablo Casals Forum concert hall in Kronberg near Frankfurt the hrSO proved to its woldclass level with all musicians playing whole-heartedly. It was a delight to be in attendance, the accoustics excellent. Thanks hr for sharing this historical event.
Consummate conducting from the great Christoph Eschenbach who creates such unity amongst the musicians and makes a masterpiece appear fresh, inspired, true, charged with depth of feeling… Making a familiar piece appear new is a feat… Mellifluous, magnificent, celebratory All are good across the board The horn players are absolutely extraordinary - for instance the shaping of the dimuendo near the opening somehow speaks … 0:29 &c Merci infiniment de Paris 🕯🙏🏼🙏🏼🕯
Listen to this heart wrenching absolute beauty: from 14:48.....it's like a prayer to God, and God answers! (when the brass resolves) It is truly miraculous, no words can do it justice! What a composer! What an orchestra! I'm in complete awe!
I was about to die from an overdose in my apartment in Miami all alone after so many different drugs…I went to grab my phone and I couldn’t even see what I pressed and out of no where RU-vid started and this song played. My heart was beating out of my chest and then the room turned white and I felt at peace. My heart slowed down and I survived. Jesus Christ is real people. He saved my life.
So ein wunderschöner Ausdruck von HEIMWEH! Und meine Gedanken gehen zu all denen, die tatsächlich aus triftigen Gründen ihre Heimat verlassen mussten. Welche Wehmut steckt in all denen…
What an orchestra! Such high quality means one of two things: 1/ lots of rehearsals-expensive, or 2/ very talented players-expensive, and yet you offer your outstanding concerts for free. Thank you, Frankfurt and Hesse; quite a remarkable gift.
The German public has to pay a monthly fee to finance public broadcasters. In return the public broadcasters have to offer their program (almost) ad free. By law.
Absolutely amazing. I'm big fan of Frankfurt radio symphony orchestra. I do have question in roughly 5th minute there was a few of different bars, than I know from another recordings. Which kind of version is this? Thank you for answer.😊 God bless your work. ❤

Sadly a lot of zoomers and maybe millennials too just can't appreciate what good music sounds like. They don't have the attention span for anything longer then a 4-5 minute song.
