Lorin Maazel dirigiert wunderbar, das Tempo ist meines Erachtens angemessen. Das Orchester ist großartig. Danke, daß wir diese schöne Interpretation kennenlernen durften.
This is the type of orchestra Gustav Mahler must have envisioned when he wrote this Symphony. They give everything, no holds barred, big hearted and full throttle. I love this orchestra!
Goooooooooooooooodness! That is the single best double bass solo I have ever heard in the opening of the third movement. Bravo! And, generally, a superb performance.
Excellent microphone placement/balance by the recording engineers that captures a panoramic vista of stereophonic sound allowing the listener to hear with great clarity all of the different orchestral instruments and their sections.
Reminds me of the late 1960s stereo recordings where engineers wanted to display their advances in vinyl record stereo separation. This is all very well to my liking as Charles Buxton pointed out.
Esecuzioe stupenda! L' ennesimo esempio di come un magnifico interprete possa far suonare meravigliosamente anche un'orchestra considerata (infondatamente) di secondo rango....Ma la Sinfonica de Galicia dimostra di essere un'orchestra di primissimo rango, con prime parti - vedasi, ad esempio, le trombe - degne dei massimi riconoscimenti. Maazel aveva sprazzi di autentica genialità..........
Primera vez que oigo la1 de Mahler y ha sido impresionante. Después oír la versión "Del Nuevo Mundo" me suscribí a la la Orquesta de Galicia, porque me gustó esa versión. El algoritmo la puso a continuación de esa, por lo que el contraste es grande, como podrán imaginar. Cosas del duende del algoritmo. He visto dos películas acerca de Mahler, por lo que la curiosidad acerca de su obra es grande. Gracias por subir sus presentaciones. Son impecables. Valparaíso. 10-12-2022
No matter how many times I listen to this masterpiece it never fails to delight. How miraculous is the musical narrative it weaves from beginning to end. It is as much a delight for the performers as the audience. This is the eternal gift of music.
The first movement of this symphony is absolutely majestic, it makes me think about the awesomeness of the creation and gives me some kind of nostalgic feeling... Thank you!! ♥️
I think this is a great performance of Titan, made me feel like I was back in Poland walking in the forest and listening to cuckoos, folk melodies in a little village and coming home to my Cantor grandfather's Jewish songs and dancing with my friends at the Jewish gathering 🙂 And when bad times make me restless, back at the forest all troubles seem to go away. Life is full of conflicts we struggle with as Mahler did but memories of childhood, music we grew up with and nature make it easier to cope. And triumph prevails
It’s always a thrill to see the brass standing at the finale. I know they’re not leaving anything behind; they’re giving their maximum. I don’t feel cheated.
Poco a poco la Sinfónica de Galicia se ha ido convirtiendo en una gran orquesta. La he escuchado en varias interpretaciones y cada vez me gusta más. Esta interpretación de la N. 1 de Mahler es colosal, como su nombre, Titán
Magnificent!!!! Maazel and orchestra. G. Mahler: Symphony No. 1, "Titan" Definitely the best performance of this piece I have ever heard. 👏 👏 👏 👏, Bravo ❤️
O Mestre Lorin Maazel non nos puido deixar un maior legado que a dirección desta sinfonía de abrumadora beleza. Que descanse en paz! Orquestra Sinfónica de Galicia sodes uns maravillosos músicos incribles !!! A interpretación sonora non estaría neste nivel se non fose pola excelente dirección técnica. De verdade grazas!
Detaillierte Aufführung dieses spätromantischen Meisterwerks voller wunderschönen und unvergesslichen Melodien. Der erfahrene Maestro dirigiert das perfekt trainierte Orchester im angemessenen Tempo mit sorgfältig kontrollierter Dynamik. Ruhe in Frieden, Herr Maazel!
Si te lo he pillado y no he tenido un buen patrón y ya te has llamado y me dices que tal tu como te recojo y me has mandado la otra cosa para ver cómo está tu correo porque si tienes que ir yo no tengo la ropa y si te lo pasas por el antibiótico que tal va tu tienes que hacer lo de las cosas que yo tengo en casa porque si yo tengo la reunión para
I've listened to over ten symphony orchestras playing this piece and this is by far the best and most bombastic (to Mahler's liking) I have heard. Maazel is just a master and this is quite the talented orchestral group performing this piece.
Maazel's handling of the TRIO in the Scherzo (the schmaltzy stuff) and the entire Third Movement was SUPERB in his Vienna (Sony) recording from the '80's; HERE, he gets the orchestra to play with the same expression, color, and idiomatic feel, quite an astounding feat. Bravo to everyone involved. LR
Strength, melody, beauty and what an ending, almost like a pre-echo of the “Hammer blows of Destiny” I’ve known and loved this symphony since I was about 16 but this incredible version is almost like hearing it for the first time. And bravo to the orchestra who were equal to every demand put on them!
Vaya con la Orquesta S. de Galicia! por Dios!...los metales suenan bellísimos! es una de las mejores interpretaciones que he visto, pero sin dudar de la calidad de la orquesta, el Dtor. hace mucho! brillante!
Hay unos matices y fraseos maravillosos. Una orquesta en estado de gracia....no, siempre en estado INMENSO. Una orquesta para competir en todo el mundo. Todas las secciones son de lujo. Gran versión con un gran director y una gran orquesta. Por ciert, en el minuto 2'' se puede ver al gran cellista David Ethève recién fallecido el 10 de diciembre de 2016 (D.E.P.)
I have to laugh because so many composers in the 20th century eschewed melody because they could not match Mahler. This is a piece that sings from beginning to end. What a joy!
One of the best live recordings of Mahler's 1st ever. But I have to say it's the concert master is the most passionate orchestral violinist I've ever seen. Either that or he's a huge Mahler fan, to say the least.
47'27''': I was 'shocked' when the whole orchestra paused, when I was doing homework, listening to this. This made me pause on my homework and watch exactly what happened right at the moment. Really surprising, but pretty reasonable - I don't think a lot of orchestras are doing this. This is definitely new to me.
Today in 2024 we have some great conductors and very talented musicians playing in symphonies but I know of no composers who write music the quality and depth of Mahler.
BRAVO ORQUESTA SINFÓNICA DE GALICIA !! CON ESTOS PROFESORES Y CON LA DIRECCIÓN DEL MAESTRO HERR MAAZEL. GALICIA ES MUCHO MÁS GRANDE...FELICIDADES ! MAGNIFICA SINFONÍA DE GRAN MALHER ,Y POR SUS COMPOSICIONES CORALES.GRACIAS.AndonY
Excelente interpretación, excelente orquesta sinfónica y por supuesto excelente director de orquesta. Los tempos o velocidades de los movimientos son muy bien llevados por este director, no por nada fue unos de los mejores directores de orquesta del siglo XX y un parte de este.
01:37 Dios Mio! Es magnifica la interpretación por el hecho de ser balanceada sin excesos en los tiempos (o muy rápido o muy lento sobretodo en el Finale) es un gran virtud de los directores mantener ese equilibrio, Grande "Big Mazzel"
Um belo dia, em meados dos anos 70, manuseando a coleção de discos LP de meu querido pai, tive o prazer de conhecer o senhor Maazel: a gravação era da 1ª Sinfonia de Tchaikovsky, com a London Symphony Orchestra. Em seguida fui presenteado com um disco de obras de Rimsky-Korsakov (Capriccio espagnol e The Golden Cockerel), com The Cleveland Orchestra. Desde então coloquei o Sr. Maazel na minha galeria dos melhores regentes.
WOW!! I honestly feel as though I have just been in the Divine Presence of God Almighty!! And I know now as never before God's Total LOVING and BENEFICENT and JOYFUL Divine Omnipresence!!!! This is a glimpse of the MAGNIFICANCE that awaits us ALL!!! Embrace Life Completely as we are ALWAYS THUS EMBRACED!! "Lord, it is good for us to be here!"
Absolutely well balanced play!!! Mahler mounted lots of disparted notes from Oriental motives in his symphonies. So some great conductors complained it and did not play Mahler often. Maazel has made this Giant music in Order - that was the love of Maszel's interpretation. New rising conductor, Klaus Makela, has shown somewhat disorders forward and interpreted Mahler's notes in new details that was also unique and interesting too.
I have to say very, very good ... love the tempos. Far too many conductors rush Mahler's 1st. (Although maybe a bit ponderous in the last French horn refrain).
A creditable performance of the Mahler masterwork, reasonably well articulated. I do not find all aspects of Maazel's interpretation to my liking, but I've heard many worse efforts in over 50 years of listening to a great multitude of M1 recordings.
El nombre de ésta obra es::: Las mariposas monarcas despiertan con un sol brillando con una mezcla de colores entre amarillo-naranja-limón tierno y orquídeas!!!

25:40 That has to be the "cleanest" bass solo I've ever heard. Perfection, and the guy doesn't look like he's struggling or tense, beautiful...!!
I hope the people living in this part of Spain appreciate that they have a world class orchestra.
A magnificent performance. Mahler is now saying, “here I am, this is the first of many.”
Lorin Maazel dirigiert wunderbar, das Tempo ist meines Erachtens angemessen. Das Orchester ist großartig. Danke, daß wir diese schöne Interpretation kennenlernen durften.
A powerful rendition by a legendary conductor
Maazel is perfectly tuned with Mahler and the appropriate conductor for the austrian composer
This is the type of orchestra Gustav Mahler must have envisioned when he wrote this Symphony. They give everything, no holds barred, big hearted and full throttle. I love this orchestra!
If I could... I'd give a thousand of likes !!! Lorin Maazel R.I.P.
The famous memory on display.❤
Best version of Mahler no.1. Bravo Maazel, the true master of conducting.
Maazel u grandisimo director y esta orquesta nunca decepciona. Magnifica
Goooooooooooooooodness! That is the single best double bass solo I have ever heard in the opening of the third movement. Bravo! And, generally, a superb performance.
Thank you very much Maestro Maazel for bringing us this beauty. And my thanks also to the Sinfonica de Galicia that always is good.
One of the things I most enjoy is seeing the conductor in action and I simply LOVE watching Maazel's effort and energy towards the very last minutes!
Excellent microphone placement/balance by the recording engineers that captures a panoramic vista of stereophonic sound allowing the listener to hear with great clarity all of the different orchestral instruments and their sections.
Reminds me of the late 1960s stereo recordings where engineers wanted to display their advances in vinyl record stereo separation. This is all very well to my liking as Charles Buxton pointed out.
このオケは私がユーチューブで知り得たオーケストラです！

I have to laugh because so many composers in the 20th century eschewed melody because they could not match Mahler. This is a piece that sings from beginning to end. What a joy!
One of the best live recordings of Mahler's 1st ever. But I have to say it's the concert master is the most passionate orchestral violinist I've ever seen. Either that or he's a huge Mahler fan, to say the least.

He is always like that...
I was afraid he might poke someone in the ear!!!
Love love love the timpani roll in the 4th movement .... barrrrump, barrrump, barrrump - let me hear every note like Mahler wanted me to!
47'27''': I was 'shocked' when the whole orchestra paused, when I was doing homework, listening to this. This made me pause on my homework and watch exactly what happened right at the moment. Really surprising, but pretty reasonable - I don't think a lot of orchestras are doing this. This is definitely new to me.
Comme vous j'ai été très surpris de cette pause à 47'27", c'est très déroutant surtout que l'interprétation est spectaculaire !
R.I.P. Lorin 😪😪😪😪
He was so naughty at 4727.
Preety and it's mastered so greatly. BRAVO. BRAVO
Incredible le tempo finale.,amazing!!!!!
＃ライブ会場映像の魅力、＃オーケストラ、＃楽曲の演奏速度最高です。＃臨場感、＃スイッチャーカメラ割り、
第1楽章0:07秒、指揮者は楽譜の音部記号や変化記号や強弱記号、速度記号、1つの音符のみを強調する記号、特定の音符のみを強くしたり弱くしたりする記号を含むニュアンスのアーティキュレーションが素晴らしいですね感動しました。スイッチャーカメラ割り映像0:10秒、0:16秒、0:22秒を含む数箇所、第2楽章17:01秒、またオーケストラの皆さんの指揮者に対する理解力の演奏はニュアンスのアーティキュレーションが素晴らしく感動しました。また複数のTVカメラ映像の切り替えスイッチャーの映像が素晴らしいですね感動しました。また複数のTVカメラ映像切り替えスイッチャーの譜面や楽譜が読めるスイッチャーの楽器奏者のカメラ割り映像が素晴らしいですね感動しました。🙌👍❤️ありがとうございました。😊第1楽章でトライアングルのカメラ割り映像がなかつたですね。？コメント中です。
This is the soundtrack when heaven meets earth !!👏👏👏😍
Today in 2024 we have some great conductors and very talented musicians playing in symphonies but I know of no composers who write music the quality and depth of Mahler.
BRAVO ORQUESTA SINFÓNICA DE GALICIA !! CON ESTOS PROFESORES Y CON LA DIRECCIÓN DEL MAESTRO HERR MAAZEL. GALICIA ES MUCHO MÁS GRANDE...FELICIDADES !
MAGNIFICA SINFONÍA DE GRAN MALHER ,Y POR SUS COMPOSICIONES CORALES.GRACIAS.AndonY
I like how long the beginning remains a delicate opening. I usually get right to the madness in my compositions so this is a good change of energy.
Que sobriedad y magnificencia felicitaciones al maestro y la Orquesta. Sublime. Gracias
Love it so much when the French horns stood up... I cried.
Excelente interpretación, excelente orquesta sinfónica y por supuesto excelente director de orquesta. Los tempos o velocidades de los movimientos son muy bien llevados por este director, no por nada fue unos de los mejores directores de orquesta del siglo XX y un parte de este.
Don’t you just love Mahler!!!
L. Kemp Hopefully, Rita is educated📯
YES! Especially with this orchestra!
All my life....
Gustav created the music of my life. It is the music of my life
Muchas Felicidades por tan emotiva interpretación al lado del Maestro Lorin !!!!
01:37 Dios Mio! Es magnifica la interpretación por el hecho de ser balanceada sin excesos en los tiempos (o muy rápido o muy lento sobretodo en el Finale) es un gran virtud de los directores mantener ese equilibrio, Grande "Big Mazzel"
Grandiosa obra de principio s fin, llevada de la mano magistralmente con la sensibilidad del Gran Maestro
The tempo at the end is magnificent!!! Not rushed or racing like so many!
This is the piece that made me fall in love with Symphonic Music.
the tempo at the last movement was very well designed and impressive. so moving.
Lorin Maazel in memoriam (1930-2014)
Maazel has left us too soon. May he rest in peace. Amen.
Um belo dia, em meados dos anos 70, manuseando a coleção de discos LP de meu querido pai, tive o prazer de conhecer o senhor Maazel: a gravação era da 1ª Sinfonia de Tchaikovsky, com a London Symphony Orchestra. Em seguida fui presenteado com um disco de obras de Rimsky-Korsakov (Capriccio espagnol e The Golden Cockerel), com The Cleveland Orchestra. Desde então coloquei o Sr. Maazel na minha galeria dos melhores regentes.
En un hipotetico cuelo, estará dirigiendo la orquesta de los angeles!
cielo
Lorin Maazel was a big man
WOW!! I honestly feel as though I have just been in the Divine Presence of God Almighty!! And I know now as never before God's Total LOVING and BENEFICENT and JOYFUL Divine Omnipresence!!!! This is a glimpse of the MAGNIFICANCE that awaits us ALL!!! Embrace Life Completely as we are ALWAYS THUS EMBRACED!! "Lord, it is good for us to be here!"
Absolutely well balanced play!!! Mahler mounted lots of disparted notes from Oriental motives in his symphonies. So some great conductors complained it and did not play Mahler often. Maazel has made this Giant music in Order - that was the love of Maszel's interpretation. New rising conductor, Klaus Makela, has shown somewhat disorders forward and interpreted Mahler's notes in new details that was also unique and interesting too.
Brillante! Magnifico! Bravooo!!!
56:56
8 horns: **epic soli**
1 trumpety boii: "Nah m8 this shit's mine"
Bruno Vicente that’s what I been hoping someone just screaming
one of the best, really masterpiece, bravo!
Mahler’s genius… I love so much this symphony and that’s a great performance here. R.I.P L. Maazel.
Wonderful to find your orchestra here on You Tube.

very pretty in my mind thanks
refined
Fantástica obra!!!!
Y excelente ejecución, la mejor que he visto!!!!
You got that right first row 👏 chair 1
I have to say very, very good ... love the tempos. Far too many conductors rush Mahler's 1st. (Although maybe a bit ponderous in the last French horn refrain).
A creditable performance of the Mahler masterwork, reasonably well articulated. I do not find all aspects of Maazel's interpretation to my liking, but I've heard many worse efforts in over 50 years of listening to a great multitude of M1 recordings.
una de mis orquestas favoritas 💕
Произведение вечное!Исполнение прекрасное,глубоко профессиональное! Спасибо музыкантам за знакомство с очередным шедевром композитора!
A truly great performance and recording of a great symphony !
first time hearing Langsam at university i got hooked on Mahler
Me ha encantado. Bravo 👌💪
Simply brilliant!
Fantástica perfomance!
This is a long, leisurely waking up on any given holiday.
Sublime ejecución.
john aigi hurn is the best!!!!!!! Fucking best trumpet soloist🎺🎺🎺 his voice cuts through the orchestra like a trumpet player should!
マゼールさんの巨人、良いですね。配信ありがとうございます。
Aún en los momentos mas dificiles de la vida, encontraras armonias (min.37)
MARAVILLOSO
El nombre de ésta obra es::: Las mariposas monarcas despiertan con un sol brillando con una mezcla de colores entre amarillo-naranja-limón tierno y orquídeas!!!
Bravo!!! Fantastic performance!!!
Magnifique.
