The first movement opens with an impressive trumpet blast. It is a curtain raiser to a funeral march of terrifying power. The second movement opens with a veritable storm of sound. From this maelstrom emerges a theme that is constantly interrupted, mishandled, and broken by the intrusions of the march, as if several orchestras were vying with each other in warlike power. The Scherzo, the largest movement of the symphony, takes on the appearance of a kermesse and a general dance. The Adagietto was written for strings alone and harp: a "song without words". The beauty of the slow movement lies in the fact that the theme is never repeated in full. The harmonic friction born of distant tonalities provokes an impression of elongation of time. What could be more innocuous than the few notes in the opening bars of the Rondofinale? This allegro (followed by an allegro giocoso) conceals its true power.

Undoubtedly this interpretation is and remains the most extraordinary and accomplished version of Gustav Mahler's fifth symphony. Barbirolli left us this legacy at the zenith of his career .
Wunderschöne und spannende Interpretation dieser spätromantischen und großartigen Sinfonie mit brillanten Tönen aller Blechbläser, milden Tönen aller Holzbläser und, vor allem, seidigen Tönen aller Streicher. Der vierte Satz klingt besonders schön und echt tiefempfunden. Der intelligente und unvergleichliche Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut analysierten Tempo und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Wunderbar und atemberaubend zugleich!

I've been listening to this Mahler's masterpiece all my adult life, and my appreciation and pleasure always increases, every time I listen to it, again. And of all the superb recordings that are available, this Barbirolli interpretation is the one, in my opinion, that most closely captures and delivers the sound and the tempo I prefer for this symphony, especially in the deep and subtle manner in which he presents the Adagietto, in the even and clean delivery of The New Philharmonia Orchestra.
There are reasons why Sir John Barbirolli is held in such high esteem. This remastering by CMRR transforms and updates our aural experience. It enables us hear and to listen up close to the superb orchestral textures Barbirolli was able to elicit from his performers ... weaving them into a subtle, all encompasing whole. His mastery is showcased in this brilliant recording of the Mahler 5. There are other great recordings of this masterpiece, but none finer than this. Gratitude as always to the team at CMRR.
Why do I keep coming back to this rendition of Mahler's fifth? I've listened to so many in my lifetime but this one is just so damn special. So incredibly well balanced all throughout and so powerful, nothing is out of place. I truly believe Barbirolli recorded one of the most exquisite readings of this Symphony... The orchestra is also absolutely phenomenal!!!
I think what makes this recording so special (other than Barbarolli being Barbarolli) is that even in 1969 Mahler 5 was not an everyday symphony. The orchestra knows this music is special and rare to perform and they really had to work for it (not just another day at the office) and we get to enjoy this wonderful recording. 👍
Absolutely fantastic! The musical understanding of Barbirolli, the ratios between parts, instrument sections, themes, the organic and logic connection of themes, countermelodies, feelings, mood and sentiment, absolutely the best, sounds like to best version of all, however I’ve listened so many interpretations of this symphony. Incredible and also, wonderful to witness such deep and remarkable result. Humbleness and greatness emerged, two genius, the composer and the conductor found each other in perfect harmony.

Vivo - Allegro comodo (subito) - Allegro molto 56:53 Philharmonia Zenekar Vezényel:Sir John Barbirolli
What a marvelous interpretation of this 5 th symphony . John Barbirolli is one of my favorite conductor. I know from my brother in law who had the chance to play one Mozart concert with him , that he had to be almost drunk before entering in the stage , he panicked, by the time he had the baton in his hands , he was conducting like magic ! What a musician !!
Thank you for this gem, I actually didn't know Barbirolli's renditions of Mahler, and I must say I like this one very much, although quite different from most modern Mahler V interpretations. I find it very wit and subtle, yet profound and moving.
Astounding how well the strings keep together in the finale. Everyone plays in perfect unison. Most modern recordings they all drift and it tends to sound messy at the end.
This is my all-time favourite Mahler Symphony, [especially I like the fourth movement, when it was used in the 1971 film called Death In Venice starring Dirk Bogarde-my late mother`s favourite actor]. A great performance from Sir John Barbirolli conducting the New Philharmonia Orchestra and originally released in 1969 as a boxed set with 2 LPs and collaborated with Five Ruckert Songs performed with Dame Janet Baker for EMI/HMV. I recommend this Mahler recording.
The young Stravinsky saw and heard Mahler conducting this in St.Petersburg (in 1906 or '07, I think) - no doubt a seminal experience that will have expanded how he thought about music and, especially, the orchestra.
10:49 Does Mahler's earlier, more shadowy, more mysterious, 'italianate' e to c version in the violins. (Think Venice alleyways shrouded in fog at the turn of the last century). Mahler later revised it and wrote, e to a to c.
As someone pointed out below, the recording was made in 1969, the year before Barbirolli died. His live performances of Mahler are more exciting, to me at least. He slowed everything down in the studio.
how many times do we have to put up with these infernal commercials interrupting a great work of music? if they must advertise, can't they at least wait for the spaces between the movements rather than in the middle of a movement?I will not buy any product which interrupts a great piece of music like Mahler's 5th.NEVER!
Oh gosh he really was the greatest British Mahler Conductor until Rattle. It would seem if he hasn't passed he mightve given us a complete cycle....with either the Philharmonia or Hallé
Barbirolli's rendition is certainly superior than Rattle's earlier Birmingham one which is somewhat lost in the middle. I haven't listened to his Berlin performance though.
@@jonnsmusich 😊Thomas Mann traveled Venice in1911. He was absorbed in a good looking boy and he wrote a novel. Real Tazio name is Wladyslaw Moes.he is a polish noble,baron. he had noticed Thomas Mann looked at him.he was called Wladzio or Adzio!he was 11 years old. we can see his photo in wikipedia !😲
@@中島百合子-g6o I know that, and probably more about Tazio and his fate than you do. That doesn't make a work of fiction based on a personal experience TRUE. Does it.
reseved and warm amd monolithic. a worrld from soltis whipped electical performance and bernsteins well played scxhmalz (with the vpo) wich of bot i hold dearly as well. a shame barbirolli recorded so little with top notch orchestras. his sibelius 2nd wit theroyal philharmonic is to die for. his mahler 3rd with halle is smoking hot, but full of orchestral drama not noted in the score....
I'm going to buck a trend here - I've never warmed to this version of the 5th. Tempo choices seem pedestrian throughout and frankly rhythmically leaden (the second movement, for example, is not what I'd call 'Moving stormily, with the greatest vehemence') and the Finale just hangs fire when it should be storming it. By contrast, have a listen to Hans Rosbaud, with Cologne Radio in 1951 - it's everything Barbirolli's version is not (even in limited mono sound). I was transfixed. The way Rosbayd handles Mahler's often violent protean changes of mood and rubato is masterly, and the Adagietto is truly a passionate love song to Alma rather than a syrupy dirge. I just don't think this recording represents Barbirolli at his considerable best.

Never say, 'alone.' It's an insult to the other great interpreters.
Well analyzed. Out of all the great interpretations of this great symphony, Sir Barbirolli's version is indeed the best.
The beginning a funeral remembering 5 million Jewish people murdered ??
This is indeed a splendid work and Barbirolli is widely regarded as one of the best interpreters of Mahler of all times.

"The Bohemian music of my childhood home has found its way into many of my compositions". - alright, we get it Mahler. You were truly wonderful.
Undoubtedly from my point of view the best recording of Mahler's 5th. Wonderful passion, deeply romantic and of course terrific brass.

Barbirolli is a first-rank Mahlerian; I find his interpretations exude warmth and humanity.
Check out his ASTOUNDING recording of the 6th, also with the NPO. Life-changer for a fan of the 6th.
Astounding how well the strings keep together in the finale. Everyone plays in perfect unison. Most modern recordings they all drift and it tends to sound messy at the end.

Excelente reproducción de una obra incomparable. Barbirolli, magistral.
Mahler was a man who understood the fights and loves of another two centuries!
Leonard Bernstein said Mahler had one foot planted in the 19th century and the other was firmly planted in the 20th.
What a powerful reading!
It's divine. Thank you so much.
my word this is a stunning 5th
Great tub sound great rendition
Is the Obbligato Horn player credited? And, the trumpet player? If so, please post. Thank you. And, thank you for all your diligent work.
such fantastic music!
For an Adagio and Scherzo, Mahler is a great Composer.
The young Stravinsky saw and heard Mahler conducting this in St.Petersburg (in 1906 or '07, I think) - no doubt a seminal experience that will have expanded how he thought about music and, especially, the orchestra.
Kaleidoskopian Music. Colourfull in its symphonic changings.. Mahler.
this recording was made in 1969, Barbirolli dies in 1970
This recording is astoundingly clear and balanced! Not matched by any modern recordings I've heard.

Yes!! The 2nd movement lacks the menace and intensity that I was expecting and hoping for.
Grazie.

Una referencia junto a Karajan y Abbado (en vivo con la Filarmónica de Berlin).
Sublime
this is the deepest penetrating performance of Mahler 5th by Sir John Barbirolli.
Why the slow slow tempo in the finale? There is great texture and counterpoint, but it's so slow, it comes off as leaden and flatfooted.
I love this stately finale and find the tempo excellent, though I do enjoy Boulez and other quicker versions.
Oh gosh he really was the greatest British Mahler Conductor until Rattle. It would seem if he hasn't passed he mightve given us a complete cycle....with either the Philharmonia or Hallé
