Thank you Internet Historian for showing me this piece
You too
Man so dejected, maid his best piece.😭
Opium induced masterpiece
Right?! It's great.

Quand le monde fléchit autour de soi, quand les structures d’une civilisation vacillent, il est bon de revenir à ce qui, dans l’histoire, ne fléchit pas, mais au contraire redresse le courage, rassemble les séparés, pacifie sans meurtrir. Il est bon de rappeler que le génie de la création est lui aussi à l’œuvre dans une histoire vouée à la destruction 🐾
Hélas, d'accord avec toi Philippe mais il est encore temps de nous relever(...)
Es cierto que cuando se percibe el decaimiento de una civilización es para que los vientos barran todo lo antiguo y caducó dejando espacio para que no nuevo nazca. Así la Bondad, la Belleza y la Verdad llenarán las consciencias de todos aquellos que hayan sido valientes y no se hayan dejado apesadumbrar por lo negativo.
Je pense que l’opium s’est emparé de vous

Idaho Falls symphony is performing this tonight 2024. I'm so grateful to be here listening to this!!! Everyone is dressed up and the money is going towards the cause of mental health.
I love classical music. So glad it's still being performed!!!!
Berlioz wrote for a massive orchestra, and Radio France brought extra musicians in to perform this wonderful piece. Huge bass section, percussion for instance. Thousands of hours practicing when young, these musicians showed their talent as adults. They brought Berlioz back to life. It's a shame that Berlioz is not featured in concerts more, he had a lot to do with making the orchestra what it is today. This performance was A+, outstanding.
The 'orchestre philharmonique de Radiofrance' is huge orchestra. They probably didn't need extras.
@@jeremypresle3412There were times Berloz used 1200 musicians in Paris, sometimes he sat behind the drums himself. When the Opera House in Budapest hosted him, they said, there is no that much musician in their whole country.
@@Tibs_Budapest Can you link some sources? I love anectodes like this and would like to read more
@@AhbibHaald it’s in Franz Liszt’s biography
Bravo Berlioz. I need to find more compositions by him. True genius.
I spent 60 years singing professionally in the Los Angeles studios. I regret not playing an instrument to the point where I could have been part of an orchestra. Watching this beautiful rendition you can just feel the love and respect these people have for the music, for each other, and for the conductor. Thank you for this amazing post. PS I love it when a conductor doesn’t use a score. RESPECT
What a beautiful comment.
We only have so much time in this life, and the exigencies of survival, either own own needs or the needs of those who depend on us, create the flow of our lives. You have accomplished a dream others, like myself, never were able to fulfill. Your own contributions to art and to the pleasures of others who heard you are laurels others envy. Thanks for your own work.
Thank you Pavel. Peace and music!
Hold on, how can you even be a singer without playing an actual instrument? Almost all play at least the piano imao
@@tobstobs950 I not only play piano, I taught privately for 10 years. I realize my comment was confusing. I never played in an orchestra
I don't care what anyone says, music, as well as western sofistication and culture, peaked centuries ago. I cry because I cannot look at the current state of France and see anything resembling the grace, virility and honor of its ancestors. I wish I was born in the past, when people were proud of their kin, of their God and filled with hope and a desire for virtue
I'm french ! You are right !
berlioz himself didnt believe in god
Indeed, in those days, being "British", "French", etc. meant something that made you distinct from others. Living in England myself, I couldn't tell you what makes something or someone British anymore (not without being frowned upon, at least).
I agree. Heaven is filled with greatness. We can be happy here inspiring the rising generation and we will be happy in the heavens creating for eternity.
I have listened to this piece for over fifty years, this has to be one of the best interpretations in that time.
Richard Brown !!! Thanks for weighing in. Would love to know who else we might be missing out on. If you could be so kind as to guide us on your favorite renditions, that would be awesome.
First time today..i have listened

I only got into berlioz about 8 years ago. I was introduced to his work by my college music professor. To be honest I became a fan of the baroque era through the art and romance periods by the same professor.
I’d love to know some of your other favourite interpretations! It really is an incredible piece!
La meilleure interprétation de la Symphonie fantastique de Berlioz. Merci à l'orchestre philharmonique de Radio France. Merci à Maître Myung-Whun Chung.
Myung-whun Chung is undoubtedly one of the best conductors for this piece, after the era of Bernstein and (young) Muti.
What an irony. A piece of Berlioz is played in a room named 'Pleyel'. Berlioz loved a woman who later fell inlove with Pleyel. It is said that Berlioz galloped furiously to kill Pleyel but in the middle of the road, he finally dropped that thought.
@@orenscaumont apparently we read two different versions.
Ok... what?!
@@eduardalexisramoscastro4128 Hey, in retrospect, it's all romance.
Supposedly he lost his costume on the way, and had to replace it, and in the end just gave up on the venture (thankfully).
Not just any Berlioz composition, even. This piece was inspired by Harriet Smithson, the woman in your comment.
RIP Apollo 16 command module Pilot Ken Mattingley, Astronaut, Engineer, and Test pilot. He took this music with him on his lunar expedition. The views he had around the moon with this music in the background must have been Amazing.
Noooo not Ken
Kind of remarkable that this came only a couple of decades after Haydn's final symphonies--what a sea change.
Even more remarkable that that Beethoven's Eroica came BEFORE Haydn's last symphonies!
@@phillipvietri8786 no, hadyn's last was the london in 1795. eroica was 1803 in his middle period
@@jeremoo I had meant to correct this, but it somehow slipped my mind. Nevertheless, they were written within a decade of each other. Quite a difference, what?
54:11 Look at that man on the far left side of the screen, how much he's enjoying the moment!
There's a happy viola if I've ever seen one!

Berlioz presented the Fantastic Symphony for the first time in 1828, having been received by Liszt and by the most outstanding musicians of the time, with great enthusiasm for having recognized in this exuberant work and perfect musical expression strongly marked by the romantic style. In fact, this symphony unsurpassed musical sensibility written by a musical genius that involves us and makes us vibrate deeply. The orchestral interpretation and direction are magnificent, taking our musical emotion to levels never felt before. Thanks for this remarkable recording, which in my opinion is one of the best Interpretations I have ever heard. Viva Berlioz and his unparalleled and sublime music.
Hello José, thank you for your comment and your appreciation.
I see you commenting under lots of great pieces, you have got really good taste!

Que dirais-je devant tant de beauté ? " Fantastique " sans doute ! Merci à tous ces musiciens magnifiques , merci à Maître Myung-Whun Chung , et merci à la production de France Musique qui a merveilleusement filmé ce concert pour notre plus grand plaisir !
Fantastique !
I love how softly the orchestra is able to play the music at the beginning, it really adds this nice soft, and suttle affect.
Subtle
If you listen closely enough the opening of Beethoven's 5th is embedded within
This Symphony lives up to its title: Fantastic.
Yes but it is actually really rethorical because if you look at the backstory Berlioz story turns out to not be that fantastique after all and that’s the ironie behind it
In french, "fantastic" have two main meanings, one is used as a synonym of "really great, excellent, marvellous" and one is more litterally describing something that is supernatural, unreal, a product of imagination where everything can happen.
Is it the same in english ?
@@antoinebrg6299 I think "fantastic" (adjective) has something to do with "fantasy" (noun), so theoretically it could be, although I rarely see anyone use "fantastic" in that meaning.
@@linneaklingler8467 what do you mean or refer to exactly ? I'm really curious
@@segmentsAndCurves BRO WHAT
Amazing that this work had its premiere only five years after Beethoven’s 9th. What an imagination! I think of Berlioz as the Led Zeppelin of his day. The “Tuba Mirum” of his Requiem is the loudest classical music I’ve ever heard.
I love the use of the bells in the final movement . I have not heard of this conductor before but very impressed he leads 'by ear' THAT is superb Sir!!
MAGNIFICENT PERFORMANCE !!!THE 4th. MOVEMENT. ( THE MARCH. TO. THE. GALLOWS. ) ,. WAS. ONE. OF. THE. GREATEST RENDERINGS. I. HAVE. HEARD. SINCE. SOLTI. AND. THE. IMMORTAL. CHICAGO. BRASS. SECTION !!!

New Sub from Kenya 🇰🇪 Beautiful Music
That might be the greatest performance of Symphony Fantastique, I've EVER HEARD!!!. A beautifully controlled performance by Myung-Whun Chung of the Berlioz masterpiece..
There is something so sublime, so moving, so indescribable in this interpretation: the musicians, and the conductor are so immersed in the spirit of the composer
Plus je la réécoute et plus je trouve que décidément c'est un exceptionnel concert.... de toux ! 😢
À l'égal (hélas trois fois hélas) de cet enregistrement concert, pour une interprétation magistrale qui restera dans les annales de la Fantastique au XXe siècle.
The first human made music that got played on the far side of the moon. Simply luminous.
Une des symphonies les plus marquantes du répertoire romantique… Le compositeur français est parvenu à trouver sa place parmi les grands artistes allemands et italiens de son époque. Grand hommage à Hector Berlioz et Franz Liszt pour leur initiative à la légendaire musique à programme.
lmao
What a find! This is so beautifully shaped and must have made for lively rehearsals judging from the sheer engagement and enjoyment shown by the musicians. Chung is well known for his ability to get the best of ensemble playing and it really pays off with each movement being a separate 'dream'. But above all this has a truly French orchestral sound which I feared had gone extinct. Best I have heard on modern instruments.
Absolutely agree! It is a real treat to see musicians so engaged and clearly enjoying being part of this performance; and, of course, it shows in the results. A very special occasion! And, yes, a wonderfully authentic 'French' sound - brass in particular.
Musicians are great, director is great, sound is great, but the composition, that is truly amazing.

Yes! A wonderfully French Fantastique. I grew up listening to the old Beecham recording with the French Nadtional Radio Orchestra and this version now moves to the top of the list for favorite interpretations.
Yes, truly beautiful performance!

I like this conductor. Pure focus. Zero pretentiousness.
Zero pretentiousness? You should see Sergiu Celibidache conducting !
Absolutely divine ,fantastique. The orchestra plays as if beìng under a magic spell of this incredible conductor
Maestro Myung-Whun Chung . BRAVO ! !!
The bela bartok of this version is excellent and unique among all I've ever heard 😂❤❤❤❤❤
Its April 2024.No matter how many times I listen to this, I never get tired of it...
Quelle combinaison : un chef d'oeuvre, un grand orchestre et un grand chef d'orchestre !
A Fantasztikus szimfónia premierje 1830-ban volt, a romantika, a hernani csata évében. Az első „programzene”, amely szétzúzza a szimfónia szigorúan klasszikus kereteit, kora előtti remekmű, sok romantikus zeneszerzőre, Lisztre, Wagnerre és Mahlerre hatva. Harriet Smithson színésznő iránti szeretetének önéletrajzi és fantáziadús elbeszélése a mű egy „rögzített gondolat” körül forog, amely megszállottan ismétlődik a különböző mozgalmakban.
Lassú és bizonytalan Bevezetés után a rögzített gondolat megfogalmazódik, majd az első Allegro mozgalomban kifejlesztésre kerül. Könnyű és híres keringő szól a második „Un bal” tételben, amely eszeveszett kodával zárul. Az Adagio de la Scène aux bajnokság egy oboe / angol kürt duettel kezdődik, amely vidéki tájat állít fel, mielőtt Beethovenre emlékeztető variációk sora kezdődne. A rövid életű Halálig haladás egy rém látvány, melyben a hős azt képzeli, hogy megölte kedvesét. Az utolsó tétel, az Álom a szombat éjszakájáról kétségtelenül a zenei újításokban a legmesszebbmenő, kétségkívül a legfélelmetesebb rész Dies Irae bejelentése két, az ürességben csengő haranggal.
That might be the greatest performance of Symphony Fantastique, I've EVER HEARD!!!
I love this conductor! What a boss!
Brother of Kyung-Wha Chung...super talented family!!
My first and still favorite simphonie. Great music, great perfomance, thank you!!
I love the face of the timpani player at 53:46, he is so happy to play :)
This will quench and moisturize your parched soul
I listened to this piece for the first time tonight and fell in love immediately. Absolutely beautiful and I love it so much all the wonderful images that came across my mind while listening to this.
Look into the story behind this great work. It will make it even better for you.
Myung-whun Chung has so much passion, and expression. I loved it. Beautifully done
At what point, during our journey into this high tech. existance we now favour...did we so foolishly forget and ignore such beauty as this?
I hope never
We didn't... SOME OF US still soak up the beauty every day by pursuing music in some form; whether it be playing or listening.
I wouldn't be listening to this if it wasn't thanks to technology and internet
Well Barbara, I doubt internet was around at the time of the great composers: You could always go to a concert.,
People that simply don't like it. Stop being a snob.
Le concerto devait être splendide, extraordinaire, sublime fantastique à la salle Pleyel, mais à écouter avec le téléphone, le son grésille par moment ,
A me demander s'il est bien d'écouter, encore de la musique par ce biais.
Merci pour cette belle orchestration et interprétation.
Best of the bestest performances in all coceivable parameter. Thank you.
This Symphony is the testament of the greatest simp-like behavior in history

Agreed, but still... You have to hand it to Berlioz being able to be this productive from a bad break up and serious bender. Most folks nowadays just rot away.

Opera fantastica: non composta al pianoforte, come erano soliti fare i compositori del tempo, risulta nuova, con sonorità sconosciute , tanto che lo stesso Schumann, che pure giudicava positivamente questa sinfonia, confessava di non capirne il "senso" . troppo avanti per i suoi tempi , col tema ricorrente ( idée fixe , confuse spesso con il leit-motiv ) , con sonorità mai ascoltate, in 5 movimenti, invece dei quattro tradizionali , con una struttura da "poema sinfonico", apriva la strada ai musicisti successivi. Nella " Scène aux schamps" " si ascoltano , addirittura sonorità che saranno proprie di Debussy. Bellissima esecuzione e grande direzione del Maestro Myung-Whun Chung.
Die beste Aufführung dieses Werkes, die ich jemals gehört (und gesehen) habe.
Merci bien pour la symphonie ! C'est vraiment une interprétation magique. Bravo.
Man that trombone sure kicks you in the chest during the marche au suplice
An incredible performance of one of my favorite pieces.
Merci pour ce beau partage.

One of my most favorite piece in my lifetime. And this is also one of best interpretation.
Beautiful. I always enjoy the music more when I watch the instruments being played. 🐨🇦🇺
Yes, me too.
I have started watching the conductors, too. Mr. Myung Chung struck me soon after beginning, as working from a very calm center-but still can express his arms quickly and suddenly at certain moments. I love to see a condutor smile at a musician a few times.
The 1st movement seemed to have more reverie, less passion. The waltz felt like you were there, dancing.The field
was delightful from its waking, from a gentle daytime pace, to the drama of a thunderstorm, or of one animal chasing another. It was the 4th movement, however, that had me spellbound. The combination of the tuba section with the bell felt mythological, perhaps approaching the underworld in a foggy shroud.
This is awefully,
🎀🌹🌲⛩️🎍🍂🎏💐🎑🎎🎴🇯🇵
Taken to ecstasy. Exquisite performance. Much love and gratitude.
Berlioz is a great Alchemist of the symphony,
and the greatness of his masterpiece is off the charts and far superior
Magnifique ! Quand on pense qu'il a composé cette symphonie à 28 ans... et tout ça pour "pêcho sa meuf" comme diraient les jeunes ! 😂
😂😂😂
Les jeunots pourraient en prendre de la graine 😂
A classical music channel says that this piece was rejected at once until it was performed .... Pure genius revealed.
Magistrale interprétation musicale par tous ces musiciens et leur chef d'orchestre. Un très beau morceau de la musique classique.
Cette interprétation est juste bonne, ce qui est déjà pas mal. Ecoutez Münch avec le Boston ou Paray à Detroit, pour savoir ce qu'est vraiment cette extraordinaire symphonie.
Possibly the best performance of this very complex symphony I have heard. Berlioz' music is enigmatic at all times, but I think this work takes the cake. Well directed and played. thank you.
To think he had attempted to kill himself right before writing this. I am sure it adds to the depth
@@dbz9393 I thought the 4th movement was just darker imagination- I didn't know it had a basis in reality. So it really was a Marche au Supplice.. 😯 We're lucky something stopped him.
A beautifully controlled performance by Myung-Whun Chung of the Berlioz masterpiece.
Chef fantastique, un grand orchestre, un régal .....
Stunning performance. Clarity of delivery best ever, and the Conductor was unique, to say the least. Appreciative audience.
Love the sound of the church bells.
This Symphonie is one of my totems, my sacred totems to not lose my mind in these times of insane madness.
Get the Karajan recording--1975, Berlin Philharmonic ... with real church bells; if this performance impresses you, you'll have a heart attack when you listen to what Karajan does with it!
@@brucknerian9664 I will try and get a heart stroke if it is worth having.

Non seulement ça n'a pas vieilli d'une note, mais si on oublie tout ce qui s''est fait depuis, jusqu'à maintenant, on s'imagine entendre soudain ça avec les oreilles de gens qui venaient à peine de digérer (mal) Beethoven. C'était extraordinaire, ça l'est encore. Et merci pour cette belle interprétation où chaque instrument ou groupe se détache particulièrement. C'est pour moi une version idéale, magique, qui vit.
Me encanta
Bien vu, l’inscription dans le Temps de cette musique si courageuse,si sincère et révolutionnaire. Rien de moins que la naissance de l’orchestre moderne. Un zeste de Wagner,Bruckner… nous voilà dans nos films et séries,
De cœur avec vos mots. Et de tête. Ça a fait Wagner, Bruckner, les Russes, tout ce qu’on veut, nos films, nos séries. On le montre aux élèves comme un monument, ils s’ennuient.
Oublions et découvrons, grâce à cette merveilleuse interprétation.
Amusant le chef d'orchestre chintok.
Un moment béni, inoubliable ,quelle merveilleuse version !!!!! J’ai eu la chance il y’a bien longtemps d’assister à un concert et de découvrir cette symphonie ,mais rien de comparable au concert de ce matin !
This is one of the better performances of this piece I have heard so far. Amazing. Thank you!
Sufrimientos y alucinaciones de un perfecto romantico.
Best interpretation I have ever heard.
La música eleva nuestros espíritus, escuchar esta magnífica interpretación pacífica el espíritu. Gracias
I was introduced to this wonderful symphony via the film Sleeping with the Enemy.
I was listening to this while doing home work and I had a mini aneurism every time someone coughed, sneezed, or grunted. Like bruh you're listening to some of the most beautiful music in the world performed by incredibly skilled musicians. Hold your cough.
Obviously not taking enough opium. Best thing for a cough.
@@shaarifgwth This is not a "song", it's a symphony. Big difference. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphonie_fantastique
Dans cette oeuvre Berlioz s'inspire de son amour pour une commedienne. Cet amour
impossible va le hanter pendant 5 années de sa vie et il transcrira ses emotions dans cette oeuvre.
Il n'y a que l'amour qui puisse inspirer une telle merveille.

Le chef à bien travaillé avec son orchestre. Le matériau sonore est riche , possède la brillance , le flux est mené avec toute l'élégance et la ténacitée qui sied à la partition. L'accent sur les silences et les extinctions sont des points de repères pour les comparaisons (Munch. ..) GRAND
The fact that Kubrick basically just took the exact same phrase at 47:45 for the main Shining theme is pure gold when you realize it
its called the dies irae sequence, basically an old latin chant, and yes it was in the shining too
It's in a surprisingly large amount of movies.
