TEATRO SALLE PLEYEL IN PARIS
All the horror of war depicted in a symphony. The greatest composition of the wretched 20 th century.
I was so frightened when I heard this the first time. So sad, frightened, lonely and isolated. I feel the desolation and destruction. I feel the loss. It's brilliant.
That's probably why Kevin Reynolds used it in his Movie Fandango (with Kevin Costner) in the scene where Judd Nelson's parachute doesn't deploy.
Well said. For me, this is his most difficult symphony to listen to, though it is truly magnificent. (Well, this and the 14th) So much pain. I believe that his Fifth was a warm up for the Eighth. The first few minutes of each are very similar, though they diverge completely after that.
the intensity of the first movement is mentally exhausting
An epic, heart-rending and unwavering depiction of war, and truly a worthy "follow-up work" to the famous 7th, the Leningrad Symphony. I first heard it only this past week-end, in a concert streamed from another Russian city, Novosibirsk, together with a chatroom audience mostly of Russians (I know some of them and count them as my friends): it was a really powerful, nuanced performance too and the stark, dramatic images of living through wartime reminded me of "Gates of Delirium" by Yes, another epic, penetrating depiction of war and what it does to people. Yes, this is music that evokes fear, anger, death and pain, battle and resolve...played here in a city that was put to the ultimate test by Hitler and his henchmen, and whose people survived (at least some of them) and fought back to drive out the Fascist intruders.

Best composer of the 20th century. IMO
It’s a tie between him and Stravinsky for me
@@vacuumlover1 Stravinsky (and Prokoviev) are great too, obviously. But the consistency of the perfection of an absolutely masterful work, the culmination of the symphony, the work for chamber music... Schostakovich is definitely the composer of the 20th century.
For me, is my favorite composer ever!
Stravinsky
20th century is Stravinsky for me.
1:06 - I. Adagio
29:27 - II. Allegretto
35:44 - III. Allegro non troppo
41:45 - IV. Largo
52:44 - V. Allegretto
Legend and Masterwork, Shostakovich with Symphony no. 8 has composed One of best Symphony of all times🤩🌹
I wrote every essay of my university days listening to this symphony. That power and that tension drove me.
Same! This, 5th and 10th, and 8th and 15th quartets! So many sleepless nights with Shostakovich. How are you doing now?
The timpani kicking in at 41:20 is the most powerful drop of all time!
No one directs Shostakovich's #8 like Gergiev, what feeling and intelligence.
Mravinsky is the best oif the best!!
@@eugenianeznanova7891 I agree, Gergiev’s is very much built on it though
For the first movement it's like the wars and long winters are looming on me, and almost cannot breathe. Not until the first movement is ended did I take a quick and deep breaths to relieve such stress. Well done
Shostakovich was a symphonic GENIUS. And having to play cat and mouse with the authorities all that time. You could see it on his face later in life. To me, he is the Russian Mahler ❤❤🏆🏆
One of the geatest masterworks ever. Excellent orchestra and conductor! Just amazing and breathtaking.
Great, Legend , this Symphony is Requiem
Third movement especially is terrifying, with whizzing artillery shells, scurrying soldiers, demented bullfight music, and general chaos. Best depiction of HELL in the history of music.
Masterpiece… wow❤
Listening to classical music is a way to connect with history and cultural heritage. I feel like I'm traveling through time when enjoying classical works.
I especially feel that Shostakovich's music takes me through time, the terrifying and horrible but ultimately triumphant time of WWII in the Soviet Union. These heroic people turned the tide for humanity and assured us of ultimately emerging from the darkest depths of class society.
No amount of deceitful propaganda can ever erase what happened there.
You’re so right. It was a time of absolute chaos internally and externally, and yet they still persevered.
🙏❤️🌎🌿🕊🎵🎶🎶
Fantastic realisation of one of the great symphonies of all time. Such a serious work. No wonder the composer called it his "Requiem". Beautifully played by these brilliant people and congratulations to Valery Gergiev for understanding this really exceptional work. Thank you o wonderful people!
The first movement must rank as one of the most emotionally intense musical statements put to paper.
This orchestra is THE BEST!! Each member plays so precise.
Akárhányszor hallgatom, de néha kihagyok napokat, hogy megint nagyon örüljek neki. Köszönöm.
So powerful. Represents the suffering and death of Stalingrad. What a nightmare.
Good Lord, this has always been my favorite Shosti Symphony!!!
Same! With Shosty's 11th coming a close second
Un cadeau exceptionnel.
Quel bonheur tant pour la musique, l’interprétation, que pour la vidéo. Merci Merci merci
Probably the greatest 20th century symphony ever composed!
Is 'ever composed' really necessary? 🙂
@@grandepittore I'd leave out '20th century' too
Unless it is his own 4th or 10th symphonies (to complete the triptych of extreme range of emotions, technical demands on the players and impact on the committed listener).
@@kodalycat906 I was always all about 10, but daaang. . 8
I think it is impossible to say which 20th century symphony is the greatest. There are simply too many to pick just one. However, I am convinced that no greater symphony has been composed by anyone and that its equals are very few.
Прекрасно!!! Браво! На одном дыхании!
好棒棒......謝謝....
Power, emotion, eloquence and sensitivity....a stunning performance that is enthralling from start to finish....many thanks to the uploader for sharing !
ゲルギエフ様、心からかっこよいです！！
💙 💙 💐 💐 🎵 Bravo. We are blessed to have this performance, Haitink's 1983 Concertgebouw recording and several other sublime performances of this symphony, which in my view is Shostakovich's greatest work.
55:23 is so perfectly played it almost sounds like a single cello.
You are quite right. It sounds like only one cello.
I play bassoon and flute, and never got the opportunity to perform this work. It's my favorite! So powerful!
Download score parts, practice, play video and play along. That's what I do.
Какие же времена выпали на жизнь этого человека!!
Thanks millions….It’s so wonderful that it’s stuck in word👏❣️💓💕👏
Лучшее из исплнений.... Спасибо,оркестру и МАЭСТРО!!! очень эмционалльно!!!!!!!!! ЗАЛУ отдельное спасибо за атмосферу...
El cámara es excepcional, un gran artista. La música es extraordinaria igual que la interpretación. Mil Gracias
35:42 3rd movement.
Very nice. My Favorite Shostakovich symphony
Very nice? What were you listening to??
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm here for 39:05.
...wonderful orchestra! so many great musicians!
每次從第四樂章到第五樂章轉C大調都讓我好感動
A remarkable performance of a 20th century masterpiece.
Bravo to the bass clarinetist at 1:03:08
Вторая часть восьмой симфонии это чудо какое-то!!
17:40
Mozart Sonata 11 MVT III + Igor Nazaruk “Criminal Russia” main theme
Strepitosa esecuzione! Un grande direttore e una grande orchestra. Magnifici! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Everything's just perfect!
Asombroso! 👌
Great job ❤ !
Волнующее исполнение! Бррр.. Спасибо и оркестру, и дирижёру, и воспитанным вежливым парижанам за атмосферу в зале.
Hola, soy de Costa Rica y me encanta la música de Shostakovich.
"Причастил" французов ...."КРЫМНАШ"
This is very serious music. I've heard Haitink and the Concertgebouw, but I must say Gergiev is more romantic and therefore more to my liking!
romance is not the right word. I would say instead that there is physicality, emotion, in short, Gergiev experiences this music by feeling it on him, while Haitink is a freezer, an iceberg, like everything he performed. If anything, Gergiev can be compared with the legend Kondrashin
@@fabio-yl7md You are right. There is no romance here. The only emotion in this monumental work is terror. The brutality of the Soviet system laid bare for all to see (hear).
@@tonylee5538 I don't think there is much romance either, but I would say terror is not even the dominating emotion most of the time. Unless we speak of the existential kind...
@@tonylee5538 Вам знакомо название этой симфонии? Какой ужас советского строя, Вы о чем? Симфония 8 - Сталинградская....
El autor brillante la ejecución maravillosa
Great musicians, great sound.
Thank you
멋지네요 😊
An hour and 10 minutes long-- unreal. Fantastic performance of this huge masterwork.
Mahler would have thought it was a bit short
その解釈は少し面白いです😂
Awesome!
音楽で頂点に立った方❤
Another extraordinary performance!
39:00 trumpet does a great job.
Timur Martynov is Mariinsky's first trumpet. He is great!
Am I hearing voices at 3:53? All sorts of odd little mumbling noises going on......Probably my favorite Shostakovich symphony.
Referencias al tema de Manfred (Tchaikovsky) en el primer y último movimientos.
Is best ❤
Gänsehaut!!!!
This symphony simply isnt talked about enough
P.s. Weirdly, I've found that it's one of my favourite pieces of music to consciously work out/excericise to. Wonder if I will continue to do so in the future
Outstanding performance!
Такая Самоотдача Маэстро да Всего Оркестра. Браво !!!
Simply outstanding performance and interpretation, bravo 👏
fantasztikus !
Une tension extrême ; la peur les hurlements
Un champ de bataille dévasté des corps partout fracassés et qui finit comme un requiem et du recueillement 😮
Мощный Духовно Интеллектуальный
Оркестр !!!
Ты же не любишь классическую музыку... или полюбила... Кайф, скажи же!!
プーチン大統領と日本民族が、仲直りしますように。対立より調和を

🙏❤️🌎🌿🕊🎵🎶🎵
Skip immediately from the Largo of the 5th to the 1st mvt of the 8th: anguish at the handiwork of the " ...evil tailess ape we called human..."
4:45 have never seen one like this
Vivid portrayal of the atrocities of war from a man who saw it firsthand.
Peut-être l'une des plus grandes symphonies du 20ème siècle, mais.... la baguette n'en est pas plus grande pour autant !!!
👍👍👍👍
❤
15:58 Inno d'Italia? 🇮🇹❤😍
Shostakovich wrote this symphony about terrors from Nazism and Fascism- celebrating an Axis Power by putting the Italian national anthem in there makes no sense
16:12 maybe some reminescences fron Italian anthem?
English horn 19:26

shoutout youtube for letting me listen to valery without having to support him
아..저 이쑤시개 좀 어떻게 좀..그래도 8번 교향곡이라 좋다~!!!※☆※
The low voices that keep talking in the background drive me nuts.
Why has no one told this man that conducting with a tooth-pick is insane?!

A bad guy listens to this in Back Blast, The Gray Man novel number 5, while he's planning on how to find The Gray Man to kill him. What he doesn't know is The Gray Man is watching him through his window..
