@@vandiergovenn I am a ferreoquinologust, like me father and grandfather, and now I get to help run a little railroad.

@SynchroScore AHH, so cool! My father used to take me to our local train station every night, I live in very small town but it was very busy with locomotives. I'm still used to visit it, it just sad to see those big locomotives has gone, now left only one train stop in our station.. keep your good work and hobbies, you just got a new fan!

@ Thank you kindly, though train videos will be rather occasional here. I do have some saved away, maybe I'll upload them. The town I grew up in is on a busy line running west from Chicago, with freight, commuter, and long-distance passenger trains. I currently live just down that main line, within walking distance of the western terminus of commuter service.

Yeah, I'm not really sure what that person was complaining about. That pedal is one of the reasons I became fascinated with this recording. And a 32' pedal or 16' _Posaunenbass_ is not going to be exactly subtle when played in a stone cathedral. I have some other organ pieces on the channel, including one from Notre Dame de Paris.

That's a good question, and I remember trying to figure that out when I first put this video together. The discography on www.abruckner.com lists von Karajan as using the Haas edition for this recording. However, the very same page states that "The primary difference is the inclusion of the cymbals in the Adagio in the Nowak edition," and the cymbals are present in this recording. Granted, I went to college for industrial technology, not music. And I understand that the cymbals are a point of controversy, whether Bruckner included them or they were inserted by somebody else, or Bruckner was convinced to add them. I understand that he was always insecure about his talent, and this led him to be highly suggestible to others who thought they could 'improve' on his works.

Thank you, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll have more Tchaikovsky on the channel in the future, quite a lot to choose from.

What do you mean, 'age registration'? All information on the performers is in the title card at the beginning of the video.

@@SynchroScoresorry my English. Many thanks for answer

One of my favorites, and I actually managed to hear it performed by the Chicago Symphony on my birthday this year.

There's a reason the very first video I did was _Pohjola's Daughter,_ such a fascinating bit of orchestration, I wanted to look at it more closely.

@@SynchroScore agreed, sibelius's orchestration is the best!

@@TamberCave One thing I've noticed in making these videos is the amount of open space found in these scores. Not just silences, but where only a few instruments are playing, often in interesting combinations. _Tutti_ all the time gets boring.

And how is it "the best", I wonder? Consider that the original English libretto was produced by a Dutch-born Austrian who was not fully fluent in English, resulting in some awkward phrasing and emphases. Then again, perhaps it's just that I sing better in German than I do in English, I don't know.

@@SynchroScore no, you didnt understand my point at all! i am saying my personal favourite recording/performance on youtube *just happens* to be sung in English, plus it is still sung in English frequently in English-speaking countries. I absolutely agree that the English libretto is pretty appalling though !

@@Nooticus I understood your point as you originally stated it. You said "the best". You did _not_ say "my personal favorite". Those are certainly different things.

Quickest I've ever had a comment after uploading. Glad you liked it! The Vienna Philharmonic always has that certain lightness to it.

I've never thought of it that way, but it's an interesting interpretation. I don't really hear it as a lamentation, but something that is at times mystical and reflective. Perhaps I'm more straightforward, in that I hear that much more in the second movement of the 7th Symphony. Certainly more obvious there.

Wiener Philharmoniker, conducted by Valery Gergiev, according to the title card.

You're very welcome. I have two other Bruckner symphonies in the catalog, and hope to add more in the future. And I'm always open to suggestions and requests.

Thanks

Thank you kindly. I have to admit that I don't have a very large selection with some of these pieces, but I try my best to find ones that have something special about them.

@@SynchroScore well, you succeeded, my friend

@@Richard-b5r9v We heard Heaven in the Second Symphony, and will hear it again in the Eighth.

@@SynchroScore Yes. All of Mahler's music is Heavenly

Well, thank you kindly! I'm always open to requests for future videos, and I really need to get back into production.
