What a wonderful, polite, considerate conductor who while being unchallenged by problems, can solve them by really cooperating with the musicians, instead of trying to dominate them. His death was a great loss for all of us musicians.
I keep coming back to this video not only because of how wonderful Abbado was, but how beautiful that woodwind orchestration is at 1:19, without strings and horns playing we really have an opportunity to hear how wonderful it sounds by itself
claudio abbado realised an undreamed dream of thousands of humans with this orchestra and this festival. This are the greatest Mahler interpretations and concerts of all time.
Fantastic performance, fantastic auditorium; never heard an orchestra sound like this and you have a perfect view and listening whatever the seat you have. We attended after two great chamber music concerts in Wengen in a little church facing the Eiger peak and the Jungfrau. It was during the Mendelsohn week festival. Splendid vacations and great music what can anyone expect better in life!
Event a solo pianist must listen to his/her sound: sometimes left hand is neglected, sometimes right hand. Just attentive listening to all the sound carefully makes the performance better. Abbado is amazing that he is doing that with 'orchestra'.
Interesting that he chooses the appropriate language for the orchestras. With this group he spoke english, because it is built up from the international ensembles he worked with. With the Berlin Phil he spoke german.
I'm all excited at the prospect of the concert I'll attend next august in Luzern; there was the disappointment of the change in the program but anyway it will an unbelievable experience: instead of Malher's 8th there will be Egmont's full score and Mozart Requiem; among the soloist is René Pape.
A Abbado le sentó el cáncer de maravilla. Desde 2001 está haciendo versiones magistrales, como nunca antes. Con Lucerne hace prodigios. Su humanidad es entrañable. Su visión y goce por la música transmite emociones incontenibles, como pocos. Si ya era extraordinario, ha entrado en la pléyade de los maestros eternos e irrepetibles.
I have been to concerts of Beethoven cycle just after he became chief conductor of BPO about 25 years ago. They were terrible experiences with whole orchestra totally being disassembled by refusing his direction. How beautiful and wonderful conductor he has become! I cannot watch his conducting without having tears in my eyes now. I do not know any conductor who is more beautiful than Abbado after Kleiber........
It's a pity Pleyel has not the acoustics of Lucerne's hall. We spent millions to refurbish this concert hall and the result is as poor as it was before.Noyelle is building the concert hall in the Cité de La Musique to open 2014 I think; let's hope he succeeds to achieve Lucern's miracle. The poor thing of it all is that it is located in the worst accessible place of Paris.Thanks to the idiot socialist mayor this town has.We're heading to catastrophy thanks to Hollande.Poor France!

Polite not so much even as a human being but what a great conductor
Polite? Lol. You clearly don't know him personally. Ask his immediate family what they think of him.

So good to hear and understand the great man’s working method with his orchestral colleagues!

@diu8 It's from the Debussy dvd that they did rather early in his time there.
Is there not a single film/video that shows the entire rehearsal by Abbado?

Beautiful! Don't you have the whole DVD?
