I am physically disabled after a long 40 year career taking care of others as a RN. But my mind is active and I am so addicted to these Beethoven symphonies by the West East Divan. I feel like I know each musician bc I watch at least one or two per day. They rejuvenate my spirit! Thanks to all who were involved in bringing this GOLDEN Blessing to people like me.
I really like your comment and also that you worked as a Registered Nurse spanning four decades.
Take care and may your body and spirit get Strengthened and soothed from these beautiful music. And thank you for your dedication of helping people all these years.
God Bless you for your years of service . Stay encouraged and enjoy the music. God loves you.
@@debborahhorton1714 praise you for throwing it back to the Creator!!!
In times of trouble I say "Beethoven is still Beethoven"
My introduction to western classical music was with Eroica at the age of 17, now 61 Still eroica rulez! Every single note etched in memory, one of the most moving piece of music which moves you to tears of joy and liberation of mind!
@ntgin62: Coincidence on the starting age and first hearing,! Small difference in our ages though, since I am 92 now. An eye-opening Youth Concert was followed by my first visit to a music theater. That night I was not tired, the music was all but soporific, but it just happened. It was oppresively warm inside, but that is only a mitigating circumstance, not an excuse for the closing of my eyelids. In vain, I changed my position. The timpany of Beethoven’s Third Symphony called me back to the hall.
Impossible to listen to that gem without feeling the shame of that incident, no matter how short it had lasted. Of course, it has not repeated itself. My apology was been generously acceptijd by the composer, whom I didn’t know yet, and who became my favorite in no time.

4th movement of this symphony is preposterously grand. Amazing composition.
The "Eroica", the 3rd symphony is beautiful! It is, by far, my favorite symphony by Beethoven. The 2nd movement (Funeral March), displays Beethoven's genuis.
A wonderful performance. The horns at the end are real heroes. I've never heard anyone even try the end at that blistering tempo, much less totally nail it.
I remember the first time I listened to this performance, when I heard them take that string "cadenza" right before the finale at the same tempo as at the beginning of the movement, I thought, "Oh my God..."
I mean, I pretty much knew what the logical next step was, but it was just so unthinkable that I was still shocked when it actually happened. By the end, I was just bawling my eyes out.
I still cry and get shivers up my spine every time I listen. Well done and God bless you all.
Stunning!!!
This was always my most loved of Beethoven symphonies, Transcendental haunting sublimely intense
So intense, it also interested Prince Harry to learn violin..0:33 😊
This is one of my fave live performances.
It’s pretty good for me to understand Beethoven’s classic in a way of Barenboim it’s soaring spirit greatly impresses me!
Around 49.00 he has your heart in his hand. Glorious music.
Then he says, “Fooled you, we’re going out on my terms.” Bang. Hits you in the face on the way out.
I’ve run out of words. ‘Genius’ no longer does the job. Perhaps ‘one of the few necessary people in history.’
Actually, hits you with a rock riff on the way out.
This is the only Beethoven symphony that I like from start to finish.
oh yea , and point 25.35 is incredible too . .. . .
@@dangraham9741 Agree fully.
Beethoven and all Classical music is for everyone.
This kind of music is concerned about the internal not the external.
It's about meaning not substance.
What it's about is less important than what it's doing to you.
I discovered Beethoven (or did he discover me?) at the age of 13. I'm now 63.
Even though I know every note -- it's still fresh every time!
I love a heck of a lot of Classical music but when I come back to Beethoven I feel that I'm in the presence of someone who really "got" it. He really did touch the ineffable, that which is beyond. Even sticking a label on it is meaningless. Any attachment of the divine is ridiculous because his communion was with something beyond that.
His music was more truly human than any music has or ever will be.
To call Beethoven a genius is not enough.
How beautifully expressed- I think your experience of the Maestro mirrors mine. My first experience of him was the 7th. The effect of his music on me has been lifelong, but as I get older, as you said, it speaks even more to the soul.
@@elainet8560
Thank you for your kind words. My first experience of Beethoven was hearing the 5th Symphony emanating from a record shop. It was the Summer of 1970. I think the shop doors were open. In those days there were sound proofed listening booths in some record shops. I remember going in and asking about the music. They beckoned me to the booth and put the record on for me to listen from the beginning. I think it was Eugen Jochum conducting. When I walked out of the shop I had bought it.
If I die quietly I want to be played out listening to Beethoven. If that is how I go then I expect I shall die with a smile on my face. For me, personally, I can't think of a better exit.
@@elainet8560
Did you know that when Beethoven performed the 7th for the first time the audience made him perform an encore for the Allegretto (2nd movement)? Some years ago I listened to Furtwangler's wartime performance and it brought me to tears. There was so much passion, it was amazing!
@@fpcoleman57 It's my wish also to depart this mortal coil accompanied by the Maestro 😍
@@fpcoleman57 I didn't know that.. it was that very movement that had such a profound effect when I first heard it.. this is what I want as my exit music!🤗
I enjoy so much watching, listening Daniel B. with his West Eastern Divan Orchestra, and I too seem to know each of the individual members, and for several years have watched them develop into a very talented working team, powerful and sublime. It is truly a Joy watching them...God Bless...Rev. W.
Bless ya!!!!
This is a very nice rendition of a beautiful work.....so moving .
You know it’s TH-cam when a WayFair ad comes up in the middle of a symphony.
magnífico..y en parte dramático, es cientamente, un poema musical...que durará porsiempre.
Just wonderful! I love Beethoven looking down on the orchestra from on high!

Goosebumps ‼️‼️‼️

Serious wars brewing, and AI, machine learning- technology a wonderful thing to bring this to all on mother earth
Lets all keep in mind that music is the true and only language that joins as all
As all represent Gods magnificent creation- Mankind and humanity
Magical performance!
45:19 is where the Classical Era ends. Honestly the next few minutes wouldn't sound out of place in a modern movie soundtrack, that's how groundbreaking this was.
The 3rd movement is very, very Romantic.
@@emiledarraghbarry
…because
The Classical era ended with the death of Mozart in 1791, the retirement of Haydn in about 1802, and the deaths of other composers essentially of the second half of the 18th century like CPE Bach, Paisiello, Cimarosa, Boccherini, and a string of others (even if they lived on into the new century).
Beethoven, Rossini, Hummel, Cherubini and a number of others initiated a new ‘post-Classical age, a term I use as they are clearly not Romantic composers in the sense that Schumann, Chopin, Mendelssohn, and Liszt may be so described.
Greatest rock piece I’ve ever heard. Absolute buzz. Take your time to do the whole thing.
Beethoven rocks!
Great pianist, wonderful conductor Barenboim !
Baremboim es uno de los últimos grandes de la batuta del estilo de Klemperer, Bohm, Solti o Furwangler.
remarkable performance so far💙

Barenboim conducted - brilliantly - the Mozart Da Ponte operas with the Berlin Phil. This was his second cycle, appearing on Erato. He seems to make Mozart's music lush and symphonic, a bit heavy and a little slowed down for emphasis in places. Here the orchestra has that same full, round and luscious sound. Wonderful musicians and musical project.
"Barenboim is always saying his project is not political. But one of the really great things is that this is a political statement by both sides. It is more important not for people like myself, but for people to see that it is possible to sit down with Arab people and play. The orchestra is a human laboratory that can express to the whole world how to cope with the other." (a young EW Divan musician - wikipedia)
Note to sound recorder: you do a wonderful job, but you could always pull the faders down in between movements. That way, we would not have to listen to the coughs.
0:49 When Seinfeld ended, Elaine must have taken up the clarinet!
Another thing there were rules in composing music like it was considered rude to have accents in a piece so Beethoven adding a bunch of accents in a row is back ly him flipping them off and rebelling showing that he will not be constricted by their rules .
Una terza diretta in un modo insolito, mai sentito prima tanto generosità di timpani, però mi piace. Mi piace pensare che Ludwig la volesse diretta proprio così.
14:57 Double bass army!! 🎻😉
♥️👏
This was originally name Napoleon but after Napoleon crowned himself emperor Beethoven changed the name. Beethoven hated monarchy and emperors which is why he was so upset that he changed the name.

Thank you very much for adding those links!
Starts at 0:22.
With Beethoven it s all transitions. The space between. Vive la difference. More: arcseyler
Very enjoyable, thanks. This symphony was one that established the heroic horn sound with a controversial (at the time) third horn. So why are there 4 horns at 44:41? What's the fourth one doing that the other three can't manage? They are big (loud) modern horns, too, so it's not that they weren't producing enough sound. Delighted to be playing this (I'm on horn 3, a great part) with Highland Chamber Orchestra, Scotland, on 27 and 28 May 2023.
Often orchestras will add another horn to the orchestra so that, say, in case of an extremely long solo, the soloist won't get exhausted and someone else can fill in the gaps
These performances were also released by the BBC on dvd!
Oh! Good to know! Thank you.
Vive l'empereur 🇨🇵⚜️🇨🇵⚜️
Which later became Long live Wellington 🇬🇧 with Wellington’s Victory Opus 91.
Beethoven’s political views were somewhat fluid and changed markedly between the ‘Eroica’ in 1805 and ‘Wellington’s Victory’ in 1813.
What do you think he’s telling this orchestra in between the first and second?
"That was a workout, for sure." 😎
33:05 6. the dollar
Why are classical musicians so underpaid? Its outrageous. Most can barely struggle to pay rent and bills, yet they are professionals. They have to 'make ends meet' by providing private tuition.
Manage your expectations if you are getting into a profession that is fun and everyone would love to do as a career. Stephen King rule. That being said, I'd be shocked if anyone in this orchestra is charging less than a hundo an hour for private lessons.
Because the West has shunned traditionalism and embraced a rootless, transnational, postmodernist culture. The type of music a society creates truly reflects the character and soul of the people who make them. What type of music is being created and what types are considered "hits" in America today? Our capitalist society rewards trash and consumerism, not beauty.
Because they can easily be replaced....supply and demand in a free market...the rare superstars are paid really well because they are rare...economics 101 like it or not.

Wasn't there another video from this performance? Was it deleted?
I don't recall posting any other video from this performance. There is another video of the performance on TH-cam that includes a couple of interviews with a music critic and two members of the orchestra from the full BBC Proms broadcast, but I chose not to include them here in order to jump right into the music.
@@davidmack9842 yeah that's the one I was talking about, I suppose it was from another channel and got deleted. Anyways, thanks for uploading!
@@erickprieto5094 You’re absolutely right. The other channel had the performances in their entirety including Pierre Boulez’s violin anthems among others. It also had interviews and small talks with some music critics between the symphonies. I kept searching for the videos and channel but alas! it’s been deleted.

Happens again around 19:50‽
That's in the original source broadcast, and I unfortunately couldn't fix it.
Thank you for putting this on TH-cam. BTW, where is the 4th?
It's on another site

Why is there a collective coughing on 32:38 ?
Right?!
Because it's sort of audience protocol for classical music concerts: try to do your coughing/throat clearing btwn movements instead of during the music.
@@annedwyer797Interesting; thanks!
Un des cors a une petite faiblesse dans le 3eme mouvement.
38:56 ok
Is this from the 2012 Proms?
Beethoven is really genius while doing this he was hearing his hearing. God is so powerful.
God did nothing lmao
@@youtubewatcher8982 God: makes a guy good at making music.
Also god: lets take away his hearing for the banter

"Hearing his hearing" Imagine being able to hear your hearing, totally not doing it since birth
Beethoven was so powerful.

The recording tape is damaged, i cant enjoy that.
That was from the source recording, nothing I could do about it.

Wonderful performance. However, fortunately, the orchestra knows the score better than Maestro does. ;)
So slow…
Ok performance....but nothing really special...of course it was from the true son of God, LVB, so its hard to screw it up.
