Absolutely poetic and magnificent! I have heard other interpretations and some of which are disasters and chaotic or even just noise simply this is a difficult piece to deliver. This version is the best. Karajan was in his best in the whole sixties and early seventies. The ending is breathtaking - the whole orchestra is so synced in harmony that it feels like the whole orchestra has become one piece of instrument.
This piece is hard to pull off successfully because it requires such deep, skilled and committed ensemble from the massed brass. Any wavering of intonation or loss of that 'oneness' of sound wrecks the whole thing. But in 1967 (as with several US orchestras at the time with their post war expat makeup) Berlin still had a brass section of rare skill and beauty of sound (the VPO and Concertgebouw have also had impressive brass at the time). But with the BPO under maestro Von Karajan's famed 'wall of sound' approach we get something that it would be almost impossible to replicate today. It is wonderful to be able to compare recordings over the decades courtesy of uploaders and youtube.
Deservedly so, Liszt will always be remembered for his virtuosic piano works, but this piece is a testament to his skill when writing for orchestra as well. He had a flair for the dramatic, and that comes across well on any instrument!
maestro herbert von karajan, grazie. qui il pc segnalla rosso come alle scuole medie. Grandi philarmonoker, grandissimi. vi ascolto al 1964, tv7, era la sigla, e parlandone a scuola in prima elementare fecero il cazziatone a mio padre...: "a quell'ora doveva essere a letto! """ E invece ho sentito les preludes , ho visto il progrmma rai.... e gia' allora avevo capito. Porto questo peso da 50 anni... I bambini capiscono piu' dei genitori, e parlandone con papa' ..." non credevo..."".... Grazie alla Rai di allora, 1964/65 assieme a Intervallo ed altro. La storia magistra vitae, nemo potet , nemo... memento!!!!!!!!!!
As years goes by, Karajan rises to the category of a "living God" of the 20th century and on... Sixties and early seventies were the period of his art´s peak as lucidly points @yanhongtong. Very few masters reached such a mastery, sound and power. "The power of the force" had nothing to do with Karajan´s and BPO power.....😂😂 Each time I like more and most of his recorded renditions from this period. May God bless him for all the art he left us.
grande per sempre, Liszt, Karajan tutti i grandi prof.rri d'orchestra….. che Dio v i accolga fra le sue braccia di Padre munifico e grande sempre per le eternita' delle eternira'...! ..e ...scusate se è poco, Dio puo' fare infinitamente di piu'….ora era stanco…..
Excelente, como siempre, Don Heriberto -que así le denominaba el prestigioso director de Clásicos Populares Don Fernando Argenta-. Me ha gustado esa aceleración del tempo en la segunda parte de la obra.
...sia lode all'ONNIPOTENTE. ! Grazie ! Pace e prosperita' e vita eterna a tutte le Sue creature. ah… grandissimo immenso Karajan, anche se è inutile il mio stupido commento.
...Come sempre...Karajan è proteso verso Dio... Ricordo le sinfonie di Beethoven ... RAI 1.. tv in bianco nero.a tarda sera..... e questa chicca che non conoscevo.... GRAZIE amici...

Very Teutonic, impressive, satisfying. It does take a heavy hand to bring out the best of Liszt. But, of course, it can be done with different emphasis. This was the romantic period in music so there is room for interpretation.
@@AlexanderArsov There are many great recordings of this piece. To pick a favorite would be impossible. Sometimes it's MUNCH, other times, LIENSDORF, then ABBADO....on and on.
non sto a fare il maestrino.... analizzandola ma non dal punto di vista formsintattico musicale , ne contrapuntistico ne fuga ne armonia e altro,, forma e semantica .... é bastata una mia timida visita in cucina..... e sentivo .... percio' ero sveglio. Quanto algli insegnanti.... bocca mia tasi, mi 'son venneto de burano , osttrega!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
