- Paavo Järvi: The Estonian star conductor has rediscovered the four symphonies by Johannes Brahms. The film follows him and the orchestra at rehearsals, in the studio and at concerts and presents the highlights of the romantic masterpieces.
Part 2: • Brahms: Symphonies - M...
Paavo Järvi is principal conductor at both the NHK Symphony Orchestra in Tokyo and the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich - but his most intensive collaboration is with The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie in Bremen. Their collaborations have already inspired both press and audiences with dazzling interpretations of the symphonies of Ludwig van Beethoven and Robert Schumann. Now the conductor and orchestra are focusing exclusively on the four symphonies of Johannes Brahms. "That music - because it is so great - somehow is a soundtrack not only to the time when it was written but it is actually quite a valid soundtrack to our times as well." Järvi says. The charismatic conductor conveys his enthusiasm for the masterpieces and gives important information for understanding them. "There are little hidden codes, which is up to us to figure out what they mean."
The conductor and orchestra take a lot of time to reinterpret these well-known symphonies. "When I conduct Kammerphilharmonie or have conducted them in the last couple of years it’s only been Brahms," he says. "And the focus is so concentrated that it has become a second nature. In fact it’s almost a kind of religious ritual for the orchestra: There is always rehearsal before the concert. It doesn’t matter how many times we have done the piece. And these are the moments where you tweak, you do little things, you fine-tune... It’s a luxury that so few orchestras have." Thus the rehearsals have become a musical laboratory.
The Brahms Code is director Christian Berger’s the third collaboration with The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and Paavo Järvi. The DW productions "Das Beethoven-Projekt” (2010) and "Schumann at Pier 2" (2012) have already delighted international audiences and won many awards.

Thank you. I loved bota chapters. Mainly the second part, my favorite is the third symphony. So glad to find a documentary this useful about brahms.
Thank you Paavo & Orchestra for the spirited performance and valuable comments; and thanks DW for such a great program!
It's our pleasure! We're glad you enjoyed it! 😊
I recently discovered a love for classical music, my girlfriend and I saw Brahms No 4 live at our local orchestra, WOW he is now one of my favorite composers, and the live performance was absolutely moving to the point of tears
I congratulate you that YOU have found a life time healer and your companion, Johannes Brahms and his eternal legacy of Great Musics. Please carry on loving him. Bless you.
What a wonderful series! I retired from being an oboist seven years ago, yet I fondly recall the emotional highs and lows of playing great music. You brought this back to me. Thank you, all.

If Brahms' symphonies have so many secrets, then his two majestic piano concertos would have hidden more undiscovered treasures.
Thank you a lot. Rich content
.
What a treasure trove to have found this. I’ve signed up for their newsletter now.
Both a great listening and learning experience. Thoroughly enjoyed every moment...thank you.
Johannes Brahms, One of the three B`s, the three greatest germany composers, and One of the greatest geniuses of our specie.

Wunderbar Dokumentarfilme, danke schon!
Wonderful content. Thank you!
Great...!!!
awesome!
Thank you DW for putting this on TH-cam. I only get DW news Monday to Friday on a local PBS channel. Brahms is my favorite composer. I visited his house in Baden-Baden, Lichtental in Germany in 1984 which was not far from Robert and Clara Schumann's house.
Was raised a country bumpkin really in cen. ILL when driving Id hear Brahms on powerful U of I station and somehow it was a fit for life. Takes my mind to such a wonderful place consistently!
Music is life.
No. It's a projection of life. It looks like life. It is exactly the same as life. But on a screen. You can look at it. You can touch it. But you will not feel the texture. You will feel the screen. Music is there. It is there. Inevitably. Even if we do nothing. It will still be with us.
Really superb, enjoyable documentary, couldn't be any better!
That's music to our ears 😊
Well, they could have played around _less_ with the animated captions.
Look at 39:39 (and also much earlier) and notice how the chairs and bars in the background look like notes on a score!
Or stylized piano keys
@@NoName-zn1sb Yes! It's too bad Brahms never wrote a concerto for chair and orchestra.

Awesome documentary! I loved every second of it. I wish GKB come to Canada one day... Paavo, let me know when ;)

39:56 Brahms's father was a bassist, Brahms would fall asleep under the piano while his father performed in groups (in music halls in Hamburg?). I find his basslines to be fascinating, I would love to hear some comments on this especially from the wonderful bassist(s) featured here!

Estoy interesado en la información que contienen ambos documentales.
Amazing documentary. Much better than Hamburg's.
I have always dreamed want to become an orchestra cello wish to be in the real world.
What's the name of the opening song please?
Por favor, traduzcanlo al español. Gracias
You can activate the subtitles in the video setting. There you can also select your preferred language. 😊
@LeoTheGuest I second that: beautiful documentary, interspersed with way too many ads. Every few minutes one is distracted from the message …
@tomdeneckere So glad I pay for Premium ad-free TH-cam. That must have been awful being drawn into the program then jolted out by advertising. 😢
Hello #DW what happened to the Documentary Snake catchers of Bangkok???
Hi Muchie, sth under the bonnet went wrong, is fixed now. Thanks for asking, sorry for the delay. Enjoy!
Es lamentable la traducción de los subtítulos en ESPAÑOL. Sencillamente LAMENTABLE. 🇪🇦😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞🇪🇦
India is the first country to consider music as a science (sangeeta shastrum)
WHY was it necessary to interject a divisive political commentary into a discussion of Brahms’ First?
Is political correctness now a requirement for membership in a symphony orchestra?
What are you trying to point at?
Your ad is annoying
Take your dislike >:(
