I was late to figure out that Kleiber would be in Japan with BSO.(I was very busy in doing business in Japan.) All tickets were totally sold out.(It was about 20 years ago.) I ended up paying 1,000US to get a ticket. The program was with Beethoven's symphony. Die fledermaus was a piece for encore. When he went back to cunductor box, he said, "Koumori. (Japanese word meaning "Bat.") I remember crying all night like a baby. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen in my life.
NOTES TO EDITORS In November 2010 BBC Music Magazine asked 100 leading conductors to name the maestros they admire above all others.Carlos Kleiber has today been crowned the greatest conductor of all time by a selection of 100 of today's finest maestros.
The precision of the most disciplined music making combined with freedom and energy of a drunk garage band. What this man was able to do (albeit on rare occasions and perhaps at great cost to himself) is on some other level.
I was there in the concert hall. It was simply the best I have seen. I have never seen such a beautiful thing in my life. The way Kleiber handle the button was nothing, but magic. Kleiber shakes swings his body at 4:07. I have never seen anybody who did it like him. I was in tears all night. I thank god to let me be there.....
The complete control that he has on that little asside at 5:36 is breathtaking. It's like the orchestra are just another part of his central nervous system. I'm sad I never got to see him live.
I really have a good time watching Kleiber and the musicians. His graceful ballet movements adds so much to my enjoyment and understanding of the music.
Great conducting !! This is a very good orchestra playing fabulous music . The orchestra played like one instrument. It was cohesive and the dynamic balance sounded very right. What an extraordinary moment that was in that ugly looking hall !!!
There are several posts of Carlos Kleiber rehearsing Fleidermaus--with a whole heart I recommend finding one with English subtitles and this is the key to know what you are watching him doing! He never wasted a single gesture or expression, his orchestras adored him but he was a dictator, they went the distance for him, watching him line hawks!

This is the first video of Kleiber I have found where not one comment is made comparing him to another conductor (especially that certain one that was in Berlin for 34 years). I think the man can stand up quite well on his own. One thing is certain: he loves what he is doing and it shows!
It's beautiful to see that he just waves a little with his hand in this video and the orchestria reacts to that. And this man is not just some lazy man, because when you see the rehearsel from 1970 you see how much signs he put into it and he doesn't need to use that now because they've just practiced it in so well. Gotta love this!
I have always wondered why musicians rate him so highly. From watching this clip I can understand. His personality pervades the whole scene and he appears as every player's friend.
今更かもしれませんが、この８６年の来日公演がここでみられるとは、びっくりして倒れそうです。死ぬまで見られないのではないか と思っておりました。感激です。感動です。I love him and his performance very very much. Thank you. Thank you very very much!!! Viva!! Carlos. Arigato!!
Merveilleux! Epoustouflant! Don Carlos a du "instruire" chaque musicien bavarois de la manière dont il entendait que "Die Fledermaus" soit joué!! Carlos Kleiber, tu nous manque et nous manqueras toujours!!!
watch Kleiber rehearsal of Fleidermaus! It is the Rosetta Stone and then you will know what he is up to up there! He never wasted a gesture of flicker of eye and he is worth studying! Grande Carlos!
Molto "ieratico" come uomo. Dio e il Diavolo nello stesso tempo. Il più grande senza dubbio... Grazie Maestro per le grandi emozioni che hai saputo regalarmi!
Carlos Kleiber was one of a kind. Just shows you how important to produce a proper performance of a wonderful score. No less important than the score itself. Bravo maestro.
D'accord Carlos Kleiber l'a dirigé mille fois cette Chauve-Souris!! D'accord on peut trouver tout ce qu'on veut pour diminuer son mérite!! Mais quel plaisir unique de l'entendre et de le voir!!! et il n'y en a qu'un pour cela, Carlos Kleiber!!!!
Fantastique Kleiber inoubliable Kleiber. Merveilleux conducteur et surtout excellent danseur..... c'était !.. Aujourd'hui nous avons Franz Welser Most qui pour moi est dans ce même morceau d'une élégance et d'un raffinement sans égal, c'est un intellectuel et un philosophe de la musique et ça c'est incomparable. Avec l'âge il se bonifie car l'ouverture de la Fledermaus il l'a enregistré avec l'orchestre de Londres ( il avait tout juste une toute petite trentaine d'années) et en 2018 il a dirigé l'orchestre de Dresde et c'était absolument extraordinaire. C'est aujourd'hui le meilleur....
I am Japanese (ramrambatti), and I am sure Ka1709san is Japanese, too.(Again it was about 20 years ago.) I saw Rattle, von Karajan, Celibidache, Sinopoli, Bernstein, Horowitz, Richter, Pollini, Argerich, Gardiner, etc. Besides Rattles, Mahler No.9 (in London), and Argerich's Prokofiev (in New York), it was the best concert I have ever been to. I just thank the god for giving me these oppotunities. I have no experiences with Furtwangler and Gould, but I cannot complain about it.(lol)
As you probably know, this was one of his favorite concert pieces. He owned it in most musician's opinions. Yes, his inner sense of time and space was unparalleled in my opinion.--and yours!
I find the tempo amazing! He can make even a piece of dull fluff like this sound interesting, THAT is great musicality! He was unbelievable! The rubati, the accelerandi, the ritardandi; All perfectly judged. A genius musician, truly.

すげぇ！クライバーが日本語で「こうもり」って言ってる！
Very vivid performance with brisk tempo. No conductor other than Carlos Kleiber could perform this piece so beautifully and artistically.
The precision of the most disciplined music making combined with freedom and energy of a drunk garage band. What this man was able to do (albeit on rare occasions and perhaps at great cost to himself) is on some other level.

What can I say? Once again, I bow down to Maestro. The best, ever!!
クライバーの指揮には一切無駄がない。すべての指示やすべての表現がこのタクト一本に存在する。
There will never be another Carlos Kleiber.
mike pen Karajan
@@mauriciocastro9704 Karajan was Karajan and Kleiber was Kleiber. However, Kleiber was the last one of the great masters.
Indeed.
I totally agree. So sad he went too soon. He gives me such joy!
The complete control that he has on that little asside at 5:36 is breathtaking. It's like the orchestra are just another part of his central nervous system. I'm sad I never got to see him live.
wonderful expression ,never saw anybody with such love with music
Our genius...the best conductor ever...
+Hilde Nieland For Strauss and the New Year's Concerts I fully agree. For Beethoven, Brahms and Wagner IMHO Wilhelm Furtwängler was even better! :D
Oh, well, we had a discussion already, I know, but his Tristan is a million years better than Furtwänglers!
Indeed!!!!
One of the unforgetable and fanciest works everrrr
Pure genius, every second, every gesture is absolute music making.
He looks so happy :).What an inspirational conductor...Such joy in his work
El director más extraordinario que existió: vivió en Srgentina
I really have a good time watching Kleiber and the musicians. His graceful ballet movements adds so much to my enjoyment and understanding of the music.
His wife was a ballerina.
テレビでしか観られなかったけれど、この時のマエストロ、相当にノリノリだったと思う。
Wunderbar, Altmeister Carlos Kleiber!
Great conducting !! This is a very good orchestra playing fabulous music . The orchestra played like one instrument. It was cohesive and the dynamic balance sounded very right. What an extraordinary moment that was in that ugly looking hall !!!
Even if he had conducted only these eight minutes of music, he would be one of the greatest conductors of any time.
Carlitos, every day he conducts better.
Finally, a recording of adequate pace. Great job!
I keep coming back to this video - just lovely. Carlos was a genius.
クライバーさん大好きです。
この演奏生で見ました。「こうもり序曲」の超名演だと思いました。
私も生で見ました。生涯で忘れられない演奏となりました。
Il più grande direttore d'orchestra che Dio abbia mandato su questa terra. Grazie Carlos per quello che ci hai dato.
Grandioso Maestro desde Venezuela lo Honramos nunca logre verlo en Persona, pero quedan estos mas Bonitos Recuerdos Fue una Leyenda.
J'en suis toujours ému aux larmes quand je vois ce maestro des maestro.....
Hats down Ladies and Gentlemen!!! Maestro Carlos Kleiber !!!
Simply brilliant! Fledermaus Overture certainly belongs to the top10 classical compositions ever - imho.
Strauss was a genius and it doesn't get much better than Kleiber conducting.
one of my top ten overtures and the best waltz i have ever heard

best conductor of all era. period.
Die Fledermaus is not dull fluff...it just is never played the way it's supposed to be...i.e. the way Kleiber does...
This is the first video of Kleiber I have found where not one comment is made comparing him to another conductor (especially that certain one that was in Berlin for 34 years). I think the man can stand up quite well on his own. One thing is certain: he loves what he is doing and it shows!

habe die tolle operette im auto fast tgl an...einfach toll......
Kleiber was arguably the greatest Strauss conductor of all time.
My favorite overture! Nobody has, or will, ever made/make anything like it!
由Strauss 11 至KIeiber到Tom&Jerry都是美妙绝倫 百聽不厭
Thanks！
I find the tempo amazing! He can make even a piece of dull fluff like this sound interesting, THAT is great musicality! He was unbelievable!
今更かもしれませんが、この８６年の来日公演がここでみられるとは、びっくりして倒れそうです。死ぬまで見られないのではないか
と思っておりました。感激です。感動です。I love him and his performance very very much. Thank you. Thank you very very
much!!! Viva!! Carlos. Arigato!!
Sehr lebhafte Aufführung mit schnellen Tempi. Kein anderer Dirigent könnte dieses Werk so schön und künstlerisch wie Carlos Kleiber dirigieren.
notaire2 Ich finde, Kleiber dirigiert so gut, dass es sich anhört, als käme es tatsächlich vom Band.
Johann Schneider Genau! Mir ist diese Aufführung die beste dieses Werks.
SPLENDID PERFORMANCE ! BRAVO MAESTRO CARLOS KLEIBER 😊💓☺💚
Quelle grâce, Maestro Kleiber ...
Merci pour le post .
Absolutely brilliant.
this is so gorgeous
Carlos introduced "Die Fledermaus" as "koumori" in Japanese! I like that!!
Merveilleux! Epoustouflant! Don Carlos a du "instruire" chaque musicien bavarois de la manière dont il entendait que "Die Fledermaus" soit joué!! Carlos Kleiber, tu nous manque et nous manqueras toujours!!!
いやあ、すばらしい指揮！行きつけの居酒屋でボトルキープした酒を注文するかのように、「いつもの、こうもりやるぜ」なんて感じで指揮してますね。
que lindo, gracias Carlos! gracias Johann!
Warm thanks and greetings from Sweden!
MAGISTRAL !!!
Immenso, grande, commovente come nessun'altro Lui E' LA MUSICA
Es sorprendente ver como disfruta lo que hace y como se comunica con la orquesta...
watch Kleiber rehearsal of Fleidermaus!
It is the Rosetta Stone and then you will
know what he is up to up there! He never
wasted a gesture of flicker of eye and he
is worth studying! Grande Carlos!
Between his recording of the 4th and 7th Symphonies of Beethoven and this, Carlos Kleiber has officially become my favorite conductor of all time.
+Hillier Productions Conducter... Not composer
+Johann Schneider Oops, typo...
Thanks for pointing that out! I'm editing that now!
You're welcome.
これぞ絶品！！しかもアンコールｗ
Wonderful, my great maestro Carlos Kleiber.
Molto "ieratico" come uomo. Dio e il Diavolo nello stesso tempo. Il più grande senza dubbio...
Grazie Maestro per le grandi emozioni che hai saputo regalarmi!
A true master! Thank you for sharing this with me.
This is one awesome piece of art.
I love this because of my fav cartoon Tom and Jerry!!!
Carlos Kleiber was one of a kind. Just shows you how important to produce a proper performance of a wonderful score. No less important than the score itself. Bravo maestro.

Simply the best... no one near Carlos
A Masterclass.
I Have No Words...
Straordinario e raro. Grazie, preziosissimo reperto.
Grandissimo direttore.
E' un esempio per tutti e soprattutto per la nuova generazione di direttori.
Speriamo che arrivino altri Kleiber.
merveilleux
Excellent!
no se si es el mejor o no ...pero a mi es el que mas me emociona oír.....y la música es muchas cosas , pero sobre todo emoción...grande Kleiber
I cant help myself thinking about Tom & Jerry!!! :D
Non comparabile con nessun altro. Muove la musica nell’aria..
Carlos Kleiber ♥.
Austria & Argentina ♥.
Grandissimo! E qui fantastico!
Extraordinary charisma.
Music that never palls.
Thank you.
Such a thrilling performance.
素晴らしい演奏です。

Oh great Kleiber!!!!!!!!!!!
Comprenc millor la partitura veient-lo dirigir. Es un verdader geni. Meravellós.
lo maximo!
Bravissimo Kleiber, l'arte della Chironomia la conosce molto bene, stupendo.
超名演！！
I am truly awestruck! Just an amazing performance of the masters work. Maestro has my ovation!
SIMPLESMENTE UM GÊNIO DA REGÊNCIA.
Quite majestic. Very good interpretation.
ohh, I almost forgot about this piece. :P I like it!
As you probably know, this was one of his favorite concert pieces. He owned it in most musician's opinions. Yes, his inner sense of time and space was unparalleled in my opinion.--and yours!
I find the tempo amazing! He can make even a piece of dull fluff like this sound interesting, THAT is great musicality! He was unbelievable! The rubati, the accelerandi, the ritardandi; All perfectly judged. A genius musician, truly.
I agree, he is a superb musician, but I wouldn’t call this piece dull…
@BirdArvid Yes I cannot agree more. Kleiber squeezed so much out of the music. This is is really "filled the notes with life"!
Alto nível!!! BRAVO.
