Taras Bulba is one of the 'secret' gems of music. It deserves to be better known. Excellent performance by this wonderful orchestra with one of its many fine conductors
Tschechisch: Tý kráso, to je krása! Janáček je můj miláček!... A ta kvalita záznamu! Zvuk, obraz.... celky, detaily.... Je to vážně potěšení pro uši i oči.
Flüssige und zugleich perfekt synchronisierte Leistung dieses farbenreichen und gleichzeitig kompakten Tongedichts. Der seidige Ton der Solovioline klingt echt schön und auch himmlisch!
What a superb performance- clarity, energy, passion and tension. This is one of the very best performances I have heard of this wonderful score. Bravo Maestro Orozco- Estrada and Frankfurt Radio Symphony!
em sembla que es el canal que mes ens apropa a les obres classiques , una orquestra extraordinaria un repertori ampli i un director i tambe els convidats , tan solistes com directors, ells segur que estan contents de tocar entre ells perque es nota com estimen la musica. I aixi les coses son boniques i bones, estimant-les. la majoria m'agraden molt pero el Petrouchka es sensacional. Gràcies.
Wow! What a moving performance. So clear and powerful. I'd forgotten how much I loved to listen to Taras Bulba. I went to check to buy an online recording but all I could find was mush. This is outstanding!
One thing is for certain: Janacek has been underappreciated by classical aficionados! This piece is proof! He is to Czechs what Sibelius is to the Finnish, Grieg to the Norwegians, and what Copland-and if I dare say-Dvorak is to us Americans! Daring, lucid, rhythmic, innovative, intense, exuberant!! And what a conductor and orchestra! Exquisite, precise, superb from the first note! I'm moving to Czechoslovakia.
Fluent and at the same time perfectly synchronized performance of this colorful and at the same time compact tone poem. The silky tone of solo violin sounds really beautiful and even heavenly!
I heard Kubelik do this with Cleveland Orchestra in the spring of 1973. Also on that half of the program was Smetana's SARKA; the critic of the Cleveland Plain Dealer said this second half of the concert should have been labeled 'X' for violent content (a joke, of course). The suspended cymbal part is written in a very unusual way; the Cleveland percussion section divided it between TWO players (Richard Weiner and Joe Adato), using two different pitched cymbals, striking them with metal beaters in VERY quick succession. A unique sound for a unique work (and Kubelik, of course, knew what it should sound like). This performance uses one dude striking one cymbal with a wooden stick; clearly Janacek wanted a more complex, special sound than this. LR
My first encounter with this amazing and challenging work of art. I LIKE!!! Its breathtaking in several ways, and this performance is simply SUPERB. MANY thanks for posting this!!!
The unmistakable sounds of Janacek as easily recognizable as a Dali painting elevated to their maximum heights by this fantastic orchestra and conductor. Coulf I ask them to play also Sinfonietta, The Cunning little Vixen and the Glagolitic Mass or is it too much to ask?
@@andywalmart WHAT? What's that on the left side of the screen at 1:37 (first organ solo passage)? Looks like an organ console to me, with a guy playing it.
What's the instrument playing at 1:38 and 2:07? I saw a performance of this piece by NY Phil last weekend, and was wondering this at the time. Thanks for the video! This is a very beautiful performance.
@@mozartmahler61 The first movement passages are ALWAYS played using a soft, flute/8' registration. Andres (son of Taras) meets with the Polish princess in secret in or near a chapel, as I recall. Why the organ is LOUDER in the Finale, I don't know...but it's definitely anti-climatic.

I’ve just come across this beautiful piece of music and it just blew me away! Wow!

Agreed!
@@carlakelton2139 -- Indeed!! BRAVO Maestros.....from Acapulco!
This is the only video that shows the percussionist playing the chimes! Thanks to the video director.

Carl Hale there is no Czechoslovakia. 😜

Agreed!
Taras Bulba is just beautiful. A composer that sometimes doesn't get the credit he is due.
Excellent chef pour une grande partition qui ne se laisse pas apprivoiser aussi facilement.
This is an exciting, inventive and eventful work, very enjoyable in this performance.
COULD HAVE USED A COUPLE MORE MOVEMENTS REALLY....
Oh, I love this performance. As a Czech Janáček is very close to my heart. :)
Yes, mine too
A Masterwork !
Outstanding musicians !
The best director (to me).
Bravo
19:02-20:38 belongs to a film , wow what an utterly beautiful textures!
Una obra con una tesitura timbrica muy particular y fascinante.muy hermosas pieza!🎻👍
What a beautiful piece !!
Wonderful!!!
To je nádhera !!!!!!!Marek Podval

Glagolitic Mass is a great work but I doubt you could hear a better performance than Rudolf Kempe/RPO (Decca/London) which is available on Y.T.
I listening this after i finished my reading of Taras Bulba by Nikolai Gogol
Слушаю после того, как немцы дали оружие Тарасу Бульбе!
Sleepy guy in the white shirt grabs my attention every single time.
Perhaps he flew 12 hours just to watch this amazing concert ;-)
21:07 He has popped his cork.
edit:
23:36 No he hasn't.
Great timpanist! Big wide swinging strokes !
Wunderbar
Чудесная музыка! И оркестр не менее замечательный!
Ещё раз спасибо за оружие.
Puissante interprétation en effet.
Браво!
Good performance......was the organ part in last movement missing? But give me Ancerl and the Czech Phil every time for this work!
MENTIONED BELOW THERE WAS NO ORGAN PRESENT IN THIS AUDITORIUM....tHE FIRST MOVEMENT USED A RECORDING OF AN ORGAN....
At 17.48 shows the wall behind the orchestra, there are organ pipes
@@edwardtodd9734 There was no live organ used in this performance apparently.
@@BritinIsrael HUH? At 1:37, you clearly see the ORGAN console on the left side of the screen, with a dude sitting at it, obviously playing it.
@@andywalmart WHAT? What's that on the left side of the screen at 1:37 (first organ solo passage)? Looks like an organ console to me, with a guy playing it.
Очаровательно!
Could you write me please what is that jingle on the begging of every concert of your orchestra.
That’s a Sound design.
What's the instrument playing at 1:38 and 2:07? I saw a performance of this piece by NY Phil last weekend, and was wondering this at the time.
Thanks for the video! This is a very beautiful performance.
Robbie Gleichman thanks for the reply! hmmm, that makes sense. didn't realize there was an electronic organ hidden in there.
Robbie Gleichman Thanks for the reply! Hmmm, that makes sense. Didn't realize there was an electronic organ hidden in there.
Geffen Hall has no real Organ? Who designed that place?! Granted the instruments are not cheap and seldomly used, but a concert hall without one?!
That's a particular soft register of church organ, which is placed in that great concert hall

The first time I heard this piece, years ago, I wasn't impressed with it. I'm still not.
How can anyone like this? Its torture to listen to.
Přečtěte si Tarase Bulbu a pak porozumíte Janáčkovi. Je to nadčasová hudba.
Diese "Musik" gefällt mir absolut nicht ! Dennoch ich schätze den Konduktor. 😢
