it’s SO SO SO GOOD and so absolutely underrated...this symphony is utter perfection, love, life, and bliss . especially the 3rd movement I can’t get over it
The power of Beethoven... The heroism.. I am going crazy from this grandiosity. Together, on the highest mountains of olympus with Beethoven!! Anyone joining US??!
My wonderful flute teacher is the 1st flutist here. Coming back as a more mature musician after playing in the young Israel Philharmonic orchestra- and with more appreciation the absolute greatness of the orchestra, the conductor. Feels surreal. Like I wasn't completely aware they were creating one of the best performances ever. We will keep the music going
I have loved the 8th since I was a child. It is the most colourful, passionate and energetic one. Even if the 100 singers in the 9th throw rocks at me: it is half as good as the 8th.
Wonderful symphony including a loud moment with piccolos that almost interrupts like a second or two of a tea kettle whistle, and of course one of the best conductors and symphonies in the world.
One of the best performances, so beautiful and terrific! I so lave this Simphony! Thanks divine Conductor Zubin Mehta and excellent Israel Philharmonic Orchestra!
Maestro Beethoven is a God. What he did will live as long as humanity exists.! I wonder if he had any concept of how important he would be to the world? A wonderful orchestra and conductor!!!
Honestly does it get any better than this? Beethoven composing, Maestro Mehta conducting, the Israel Philharmonic playing, and of course Guy Eshed on flute :-) sorry I am a huge fan lol. Thanks for sharing this with all of us Heidi in Atlanta
I've developed a Beethoven obsession in recent years, and I've come to the conclusion that my favorite symphony is whichever one I'm listening to, tho the 9th is in a class by itself, and I was fortunate to attend a live performance of it by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra last year, a once in a lifetime experience!
As an Indian. I feel profoundly indignant at such a blithe oversight of Gandhi. But I'd probably - with reservations - concede to him being in the top 10.
The best Beethoven's Eighth I've ever heard. A true great performance! Mehta is one of the very few non-germanic conductors who catch up with the beethovenian symphonic essence.
Also Beethoven's Symphony No. 6 (first and last movement) is filled with joy, which the composer unfortunately enjoyed so little. Greetings from Czechia.
Tutti bravi .Maestro Mehta & the soloists of the Israel Ph. O.gave us an excellent paradigm of how the Beethovenian symphonies have to be performed: with clarity, dynamism and eloquence, without being pompous. Especially, the finale (and its coda) were impeccable.
Una delle più belle interpretazioni di questa sinfonia per la giusta scelta dei tempi che rendono più chiare e intelligibili le intenzioni beethoveniane per questa sua ottava sinfonia.
My brother had the wonderful experience of Mehta's father conduct the UCLA youth orchestra. My brother says that he is a better conductor than his son Zubin. I can not remember the first name of Zubin's father's name.
@@leonardstevens4412 As an old fart, I too had heard Mehta's father conduct UCLA youth orchestra (but in those unforgettable days I had the fortune of being among the audience of many, many performances by Zubin.) In my humble opinion the father was no match for the son, not by any measure. The father's name was Melin. Melin told us that" there was a time when Zubin was called Melin's son, now he (Melin) is called Zubin's father."
Para mí es la sinfonía bailable de Beethoven, de principio a fin imagino un gran ballet en el escenario, el minué del segundo movimiento ya lo tengo en la cabeza con coreografía y todo.
I didn't hear Karajan's performance a lot, but from what is stuck in my memory-this performance surpasses him. This piece is different with Mehta. Mehta is such a maestro. And I will regret forever not attending his last concerts, even though I had a reason (I anyway hated the acoustics generally in their performance hall. I remember attending to his Mahler's 2nd and sitting in the back. And man, I was like "seriously, I prefer listening to it with the bombastic headphones without the roundness of the acoustics. But the Beethoven 3rd piano concerto was more fitting to the acoustincs. And the 2nd movement was one of the most divine things I've ever heard and I was flying
מוסקט מנדלסון and so what ? don't tell me that you feel like him ! well .. I think you should feel less .. Because your house is built on the ruins of the Palestinians.
Alvin Schweitzer I can to understand you never was in Israel- I have neighbors palestinies, we learn Arabic in school. I'm in the left side of the map, I believe in human rights and palestinic country, but I still proud in my country
Una meraviglia ! Interpretazione sobria "ossigenata" da "tempi" che permettono una respirazione naturalmente giusta a questa sublime sinfonia beethoveniana che molti direttori "nervosi" spesso "malmenano".
It's is so interesting, how much resemblance in the openness and lyricism of the 6th, Beethoven F major is something... It is light and nature and sun, and all hope and everything. How don't we go crazy from that? Beethoven and the people who truly understood this music and what there is within.. Surely did!
In terms of depth and variations the composition is unique..One of Beethoven's best! "harmonious sounds on golden hinges moving"(John Milton). Zubin is simply superb!
it’s SO SO SO GOOD and so absolutely underrated...this symphony is utter perfection, love, life, and bliss . especially the 3rd movement I can’t get over it
Exactly! Totally under rated🥢!
The 8th is my current Beethoven obsession, but it's the first movement that really does it to me!
...quem sabe...Faz...excelente e maravilhosa apresentaçao...mui TALENTE !!!***
Zubin Mehta must have been 75 at that time.He celebrated his 85 th recently.May God give him a long and healthy life.
I see that Beethoven's beautiful and ravishing music unites nations. I am Czech. Peace, love and God's blessings to the whole world.

Each and every single symphony by Beethoven shall NEVER be equaled in Utter PERFECTION.
I agree Enrique!!
Except the 4th
The poor old 8th, eternally overshadowed by the 9th, but such a superb use of the mighty forces of a great orchestra
Agreed
I have loved the 8th since I was a child. It is the most colourful, passionate and energetic one. Even if the 100 singers in the 9th throw rocks at me: it is half as good as the 8th.
The 9th is the most overrated. And the finale is a knock off of Mozart anyway.
Thank you Herr Conductor. I have listened to you since 1971 and thank you for all of your great work and also to Herr Beethoven.
Wonderful symphony including a loud moment with piccolos that almost interrupts like a second or two of a tea kettle whistle, and of course one of the best conductors and symphonies in the world.
Exciting Beethoven's 8th Symphony, from beginning to end.
One of the best performances, so beautiful and terrific! I so lave this Simphony! Thanks divine Conductor Zubin Mehta and excellent Israel Philharmonic Orchestra!
Excellent and beautiful performance of Director Zubin Metha
Thanks for sharing
What a stunning performance! Zubins interpretation is among the best i've heard and the orchestra is top notch.
cannot imagine my life without Bethoven..
Idem !
Hearty the second movement(about the middle part of the Symphony )it is really very lively
Maestro Beethoven is a God. What he did will live as long as humanity exists.! I wonder if he had any concept of how important he would be to the world?
A wonderful orchestra and conductor!!!
This symphony is just so perfect... One of Beethoven's greatest ever compositions. oh the joy i get from hearing this
In my mind this pairs with Beethoven's piano concerto 1, they both have a free feeling joy!
Have never understood why the 8th is marginalized by some. Have always loved it and this performance is breathtaking. Bravo
Yes, the 8th is certainly one of Beethoven's best symphonies.....and this performance is certainly among the very best - if not the best!
Honestly does it get any better than this? Beethoven composing, Maestro Mehta conducting, the Israel Philharmonic playing, and of course Guy Eshed on flute :-) sorry I am a huge fan lol. Thanks for sharing this with all of us Heidi in Atlanta
Bach to think , Beethoven to fly over the clouds. I love both.
exatamente !!

Zubin Mehta by far the greatest gift to the world coming out of India 🙏
As an Indian. I feel profoundly indignant at such a blithe oversight of Gandhi. But I'd probably - with reservations - concede to him being in the top 10.
wow he drops his baton in the opening bars and doesn't miss a beat!!! Superb!
💐🇳🇿 Out of this world. The most beautiful rendition. How wonderful!
Wow! At 0:33 Mehta looses his baton as a result of hitting his stand and a string player quickly hands it back to him.
The best Beethoven's Eighth I've ever heard. A true great performance! Mehta is one of the very few non-germanic conductors who catch up with the beethovenian symphonic essence.
It's his most enjoyable symphony.
Also Beethoven's Symphony No. 6 (first and last movement) is filled with joy, which the composer unfortunately enjoyed so little. Greetings from Czechia.
I just love this work ! Why is it under rated ? It is magnificent !
Superb. Orchestra has so much depth, meaning to it. So powerful. I just love it.
This performance Mr. Zubin Mehta is like having meditation. Going in to trance.
Simply melodious.
EXCELLENCY, WE MISS YOU IN MONTREAL
BRAVO BRAVO. HAVE ATTENTED YOUR CONCERTS IN TEL AVIV IT WAS
ALWAYS WITH GREAT DELIGHT.. THANK YOU
I COULD LISTEN TO THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN..WITH ZUBIN MEHTA
The lyrical passage in the 4th movement... God... Goosebumps
Tutti bravi .Maestro Mehta & the soloists of the Israel Ph. O.gave us an excellent paradigm of how the Beethovenian symphonies have to be performed: with clarity, dynamism and eloquence, without being pompous. Especially, the finale (and its coda) were impeccable.

Gawd, no wonder he's considered one of the world's finest conductors, this is jaw-dropping!

You can EXPLODE from within. Beethoven, and this orchestra. And the conductor. Do you appreciate the macht we have here, my friends?
Para mí es la sinfonía bailable de Beethoven, de principio a fin imagino un gran ballet en el escenario, el minué del segundo movimiento ya lo tengo en la cabeza con coreografía y todo.
Sí? Bueno atiendo sugerencia.
Yo amo a Bethoven también pero por otras razones.
Bailo más bien con otro 😄
Con otros debí decir.
Bailar me gusta mucho.
Truly stunning and dazzling work!
Wow!!! powerful perfomance
A beautiful performance by all, especially Maestro Mehta!! Australia
３０分未満の短い曲ですけど良くまとまった素晴らしい曲ですね！
ドラマのだめカンタビ－レで良く主題曲として演奏されている第７番と共に運命と同等に好きになっている交響曲ですね！毎日楽しく視聴しています！
Magnificent! I miss playing this music since retirement! Michael McClary
Congratulations, Maestro Metha in your, todays birthday. You are great. I hope you ll return soon to conduct.
I LOVE HOW BEETHOVEN FINISHES SYMPHONIES!!! HE DOESN'T GIVE A F&&&! What GREATNESS!!!!!!!!!!!

The world is brainwashing their people about the Jews and Israel, antisemites are everywhere
IT IS SO ENERGETIC AND EXCITING!!!!!!!
Israel, maybe you don´t like the country but their orchestras are superb.
Sublime Beethoven they best classic compositor 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵
I find this conductor super in classics, always a game that matches the movie 'very beautiful'!!

India adores you.Sir. SUPERB.
Israel is home for him he has conducted our orchestra for 50 years straight - There will never be another like him
@@mssucks3462tommy He lives in New York though.
Ohhhh yes!! Really awesome terrific!!!
el mejor del mundo zubin metha
Outstanding!
Hanoch Cohen Stiu!Stiu!
look this 00:33 - 00:37 cool Maestro!
Wow!
Dropped his baton, and didn't miss a beat.... Almost unnoticeable, even when it was handed back to him. So smooth. Lol
Though Beethoven himself casually called this 8th Symph"verspielt"it is the cle verness of the Conductor to give you what you would certainly enjoy
In terms of depth and variations the composition is unique..One of Beethoven's best! "harmonious sounds on golden hinges moving"(John Milton). Zubin is simply superb!
Beethoven. The greatest. European music. The best. Europeans. Historically the most brilliant innovative intelligent culture on the planet.
Got to be the most foolish comment here.
Cannot imagine my homework without Beethoven.
Absolutamente maravilloso. Bravo maestro Zubin Mehta.
Excelente orquesta y director ..Amo las sinfonías de Beethoven
Notalara tüm zerreleriyle bu derece hakim olan tanidigim tek conductor.
