Yes, "Ach du lieber, mein schatz"!!!!! "Overwhelming" might be about the best word I could use to describe this music AND orchestral performance!!! How could these great musicians "endure" such a lengthy & demanding piece of music??? The MENTAL & PHYSICAL FATIGUE must be enormous!!! ALL the soloist's passages were unbelievably gorgeous!! I especially loved the ones by the concertmeister (violin), the "Cor Anglais" or English Horn, & the outstanding young man on the French Horn, among many others too! My "difibrulator" almost blew a gasket! This orchestra must be considered one of the very FINEST of any, not that anyone could really make such a judgement!!! I'm still "recoiling" from what I just heard! My love affair with classical music has has become "more passionate" than ever, even at my age of 81! "Gesundheit"!!!!!
Imagine the fatigue of the composer after this too, can't imagine how someone can compose like that, that orchestral counterpoint is so sophisticate... Yes, this is one of the best orchestras in the world (if not the best) and this conductor knows his job, great conductor, perfect tempo.
Sincercely one of the best performances of Heldenleben of Richard Strauss.Great orchestra in size and even in performance.The conductor is simply amazing and precise with a lovely extra latin tricks to the orchestra that warms the atmosphere.Thank you I enjoyed a lot.
This is the Best performance I found in the internet. Bravo for the whole orchestra. You made this wonderful piece, one of my favourite compositions! Thank you for that!
A World class performance from a World class orchestra. I'm a big fan of Richard Strauss, I would say his music is a combination of the late romantic and the dissonance of the modernists, very powerful. Bravo!
Wunderschöne Aufführung dieses farbenprächtigen Meisterwerks mit perfekter Synchronisierung aller Instrumente. Alle Spieler, besonders der Konzertmeister, sind wahre Helden!
I am fascinated with relationships between orchestras and conductors. All of the voices are essential to make a performance great and this is an example of each section complementing the others. This is one of two orchestra-conductor relationships in which I find Ein Heldenleben live!
It would be great to have some words from the musicians on the backstage after the concert. Like they do after football matches. It would be very inspiring for other musician colleagues from all over the world. Love HR! Bravi!
You have never played in an orchestra, right? Never going to happen, two reasons 1) sports stars earn millions and can afford taxis home etc 2) musicians concentrate 100% of the time during each 3 hour rehearsal call and again during each public performane. Concert ends, most just want to run for their tram/bus to get home.
@@foveauxbear athletes also concentrate 100% of the time in their games. They also want to go home or enjoy the moment. It's possible for a short interview. They aren't dying after a concert, just tired.
I love the HR Sinfonieorchester and its TH-cam videos. I also very much like videos of the BBC Proms. And yet... The producer in Frankfurt does love showing an occasional shot of the top of the organ pipes and then slowly coming down. Likewise in London the producer simply must show us the gallery (at the top) and slowly descend. I wonder, could these two gents or ladies be in some way related? And is there some sort of religious significance to all this? I think we should be told. Fabulous stuff, all the same. :-)
I'll never understand why camera operators or producers will spend any amount of time away from the ensemble. There is SO much to capture. We don't need to see the hall, show the live players.
Fantastic playing, fantastic sound, fantastic conducting. Just for curiosity I invite you music lovers a compare this sound with the sound of the same orchestra playing the 5th Schostakovitch directed by David Afkham. Tell me what you think.
Andrés: Eres el orgullo colombiano. Créeme, lo eres para los amantes de la música verdadera y estamos fascinados con tu talento musical. You are the Colombian pride. Believe me, we, real music lovers, are fascinated with your artistic talent.
I find it interesting that at the Golden Mean of the piece (29 minutes) the Don Juan hero's theme appears in the horns. I wonder if that was intentional.
Yes it was. Strauss composes a lot of his other themes into is other pieces. He does this in his other tone poems as well. As well, he actually quotes from all of his other tone poems in this piece.
Amazing performance as always by this ensemble. I would be livid as a conductor, however, if I saw the camera operators next the percussionists as they were. They are inside the ensemble. Heads would roll.
Eng fantastesch Musek, déi, obschonn mat enger onbestreidecher Religiositéit duerchgesat ass, vun enger Persoun ganz wäit vun transzendentalen a reliéise Raimlechkeete geschmaacht a appréciéiert ka ginn. D'Klangarchitektur ass hei virun allem eng Therapie fir d'Sënner
A very good performance, even if, strangely, the orchestra seems to me, slightly undersized, with 7 and not 8 doublebasses and a percussionist (suspended cymbals) in minus. I've already noticed similar things in the videos of Scriabin's "Poem of Ecstasy" and "Prometheus", conducted by Markus Stenz (in this case without the organist, too). Maybe I'm wrong?

L''enthousiasme de ces musiciens (regardez attentivement la flûte solo, la Salamanquaise Clara Andra de la Calle) est communicatif, et le public ne s'y trompe pas. Seule remarque : les caméras. Mais le son est excellent pour un youtube. Bienheureuse cité de Francfort ! un conseil : abonnez-vous.
Die Bildregie ist bei den Aufnahmen des hr-Sinfonieorchesters leider immer wieder mal unfassbar daneben ... könnte da vielleicht mal jemand die Partitur mitlesen, damit nicht so häufig ausgerechnet diejenigen Musiker gezeigt werden, die gerade nichts oder Uninteressantes zu tun haben (!)?
Strauss, the big music-hero and his own heldenleben, shown as a great symphonic poem. Masterwork indeed.
Ein Meisterwerk, you mean.

On the strength of this it seems there is a major new talent in the conducting world - outstanding!
Seidenberg got a gold plated 103! And of course he sounds absolutely incredible as always!
He deserves it!
@@sfbirdclub He's left now and gone solely to teaching, I believe.
@@johnvaughan7096 You‘re right, he is teaching now at the Musikhochschule Mannheim as the Professor for Horn, and does there a great job as well!
@@rauberhotzenplotz8069 Much less stress there, but what a loss to orchestral music.
I will buy one for me too. Maybe I will take some lessons too…or watch some tutorial about how to play the horn.

Fine performance by an excellent orchestra led by one of the best young conductors in the world.
Outstanding performance!!
And his surprising "concerto for violin and orchestra".

this is one of the best ideas I've read on youtube. I will comment it on every video they post until they start doing it :)
Orchestras are not leveraging the information age. We should be able to see in an app who's playing that day at the very least.

Fantastic! many thanks.
23:50 about where the euphonium excerpt starts
My favorite, der held
My favourite moment is the transition back into the recapitulation back to the hero theme. That cadence is to die for.
The mighty Richard Strauss-what a treasure.
Andrés: Eres el orgullo colombiano. Créeme, lo eres para los amantes de la música verdadera y estamos fascinados con tu talento musical. You are the Colombian pride. Believe me, we, real music lovers, are fascinated with your artistic talent.
