I burst into tears spontaneously and it was probably the 200th time I was listening to this music. Love whoever plays Mahler, no matter when and where...
@Sparticus Booker I'm a man and I can't go on period. And it's disgusting to make fun of women's period in 21th century dear. Mahler is toi much for you. You better listen to Bieber and Shakira to get emotional.
@@mongoloid8878 Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh, you wanna make BOOK on that, bubby? I've been a subscriber to The Cleveland Orchestra for the past 35 years, and I'll give up my six-concert block when hell freezes over and 1,000 years past! I think you'll find the rest of TCO's base feel much the same.
@Sparticus Booker This is a good performance.The fact that - apart from No.1 & 10 - his symphonies are long-winded, and feature self-pity to a perhaps excessive degree, tends to be put into sharp relief by bad performances. But wherever song is involved I think one can trust Mahler implicitly.
Sparticus Booker did you really feel the need to reply to 3 separate comments? People are allowed to have a different opinion than you, and bullying them with sexist comments isn’t really going to change anyone’s viewpoint.
It is remarkable how these musicians create the same hair-raising excitement while sitting in their practice rooms with only a small audio feed to their ears as they play their parts. Bravo!
Brilliant!... but how do the neighbors feel about living next door to a percussionist who has a set of timpani and is not afraid to use them? Well done BSO.
I am in tears, almost sobbing at the end of this incredible piece of music as played by the Magical BSO musicians, each from their own homes. The production & editing by Colin Sorgi is unbelievable. Thank you, Maestra Alsop, and all of you who shared your talents, helping us get through this human crisis together. God bless you all and keep us safe. Dotty Rosenthal-Nerenberg
Amazing... Even in this "virtual" performance, the immediacy, the power, and the beauty of Mahler's music comes through. Deeply moving to hear the music even like this... May be for many people, this even HELPS to hear at least this small portion of the amazing 30-minutes-long finale to the 80-minutes-long piece in a more intimate way that reaches them more directly.
Marvelously done. I especially like this because it focuses in on individual players as they are playing, and we see them better than we ever do in a concert hall. Also, I think this could be an educational tool for young people learning what the instruments are and what each one sounds like. Seeing an instrument actively being played is much more interesting than seeing a mere picture with a label, and hearing it at the same time will be more memorable for a child, too. I also enjoyed seeing all 48 musicians playing together at the end. Congratulations.
Love how the French Horn player is performing in her family's play room with the toys in the background and trampoline leaning against the wall. Makes for a cozy insight to real people, real lives. 🤫🙂😉❤
What a wonderful way to begin Palm Sunday and the week of Passover. Mahler obviously understood the triumphant power of the human spirit in times of great need. Bravissimo!
I love these interpretations-and they are truly interpretations-because the audio engineer becomes the musical director and conductor! Until these types of videos came into being, I had never heard every part of an orchestrationally dense work such as this with such clarity! And I love that, even alone, the oboes are bells up-together!
DAMN! From a long-time supporter of The Cleveland Orchestra, a HUGE tip of the chapeau to the musicians and support personnel of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. That. Was. BRILLIANT.
Holy crap! I’m not an emotional guy but damn! These musicians did an incredible job!!! What a wonderful performance!!! (Those “👎” have to be accidental bcuz they must’ve had tears in their eyes.)
There is something incredibly moving and personal about these virtual performances. It is ,is some respects, better than being in the hall. Thank you so much!
Never before have I been so moved by this beautiful music as I have been here watching these wonderful musicians play it with all their heart and soul!
From Olympia, Washinton THANK YOU Boston Symphony Orchestra for this wonderful gift. BRAVO and BRAVO again! As many others have said, this vidoe takes our hearts to another place as our tears of utter joy flow in gratitde.
Thank you Alsop bless from Brazil. I had the pleasure to see in OSESP! Hard times that only music and other arts can save us! thanks for the performance all the musicians, brings a lot of emotions together!
Loved it. Found the 1St trumpet part and played along . I hope you are all safe and that we can get ba K to making music - be amateur or professional. The world will be a better place once we get through this pandemic. Thank you BSO.
Unfreakin believable- ive heard famous world renowned orchestras blow this ending but these guys nailed it with emotion- A few sour notes and late entrances notwithstanding, this was a gut wrenching listening experience and whoever did the editing should be congratulated as well. This was Mahler's most majestic but relative quiet endings- my second favorite after The Resurrection! Beautiful
Wow...I’m gonna cry. This is just beautiful.😭😭. Thank you to the BSO for providing music to all of us during these times. This makes me think...there are brighter and better days ahead.
Thank You to all who contributed to this piece A great deal of talent was required for for all this and I AM one who appreciated the effort Blessings to all
Simply glorious! Your music is a gift to our community. With tears in my eyes, I thank you for this performance and all the others through the years. I cannot wait to see you in person once again. Please be safe.
I heard this symphony of Mahler in summer 2001 the first time, after I bought a recording. Some weeks later I spent my holiday in the Austrian Alps. When I saw these giganteous mountains and nature there, I felt this Adagio always in my ears. Always when I'm hearing this Adagio, I see the sunset behind the mountains and the rise of the Evenstar. Thank you BSO for this video. And I wish for all of you, that you can play this Symphony soon again in your concerthall.
I wonder if Orchestras can keep the humanity of this even after the pandemic - seeing the musicians up close helps you feel the music so much more than only seeing a crowd from a distance.
Hard to beat the physics of the concert hall though, the sounds of the hall resonating with the music and the blending of harmony and dissonance between the sound waves of each musician. I wonder if there's a way to seamlessly give us close-ups of the musicians choreographed with their high points in the pieces
@@Big_Red_Dork Maybe some 5-6 projection screens in the concert hall, each displaying a group of musicians... I don't know, I prefer just seeing the entire orchestra live.
Ajay Gupta There have been times when I have just refrained from 👍🏻 or 👎 because although I was glad the video was uploaded, the content was disturbing. So I elected not to comment one way or the other. If you don’t like it, why listen in the first place
What are these tears? The ones overflowing my eyes? They must be joyous tears because great music still lives even when concert halls are shuttered. Because even though Marin Alsop and the orchestra aren't together, they are united in bringing great music to us all. Bravi, orchestra! And Brava, Maestra! (I still remember the flawless performance of Mahler 7 that you and the Colorado Symphony Orchestra gave in Boettcher Hall. I was behind the orchestra and loved watching you as if I myself were playing.)
In all the years I have been playing In music ensembles, I would have thought that something like this would have been impossible to pull off. I was proven wrong. Amazing work!
That was simply brilliant! And the editing was amazing. These virtual performances with each musician in his own space - you see what each musician is doing when he's performing. And putting it all together - that's what an orchestra is. Thank you!
What this video does is demonstrate, more than a concert performance could, how individual players, with different instruments and different musical lines, work together to create something surpassingly beautiful. It is an inspiring metaphor for how human beings generally could work together to make the world more beautiful than it is.
Bravo, Marin and the BSO! This remarkable composite video goes to show how together an orchestra can be despite the COVID-19 social distancing we all have to do, watching and cueing each other from private screens and still realizing Mahler's majesty as an ensemble. And I must say, the coronavirus pandemic has given us some of the best examples of the split-screen technique since the '60s (e.g., "The Thomas Crown Affair" and the way the Brady Bunch members looked at each other from their own squares). Encore!
I can't say anything more than Thank you. This end of this 3rd symphony by Mahler seems to be the moment that we actually live : a kind of death and resurection of the world (I hope so)
Thank you so much! The performance logistics must be considerable. My brother-in-law recently retired from the Colorado Symphony Orchestra-Denver after 34yrs and 25yrs as principal cellist in the Colorado Central City Opera Orchestra. My sister won a full tuition scholarship to the Eastman School of Music, was the harp faculty at the University of Colorado-Denver, first call union harpist and played with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra-Denver. I had a successful clarinet/sax studio for forty years and also sang in the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra Chorus for thirty years including three sold out performances in Carnegie Hall NYC. Nicely done!
I burst into tears spontaneously and it was probably the 200th time I was listening to this music.

Crazy how a virtual edited performance of this still made me cry
Sparticus Booker way to be a doushe. Can’t go troll some nicki Minaj video?
What is sad is that when the pandemic is over these big orchestras will not getaudiences back
There will also be no funding, they will go bankrupt
@@mongoloid8878 Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh, you wanna make BOOK on that, bubby? I've been a subscriber to The Cleveland Orchestra for the past 35 years, and I'll give up my six-concert block when hell freezes over and 1,000 years past! I think you'll find the rest of TCO's base feel much the same.
@Sparticus Booker So many tools, so few repairs. Must you be, smarty cuss?
There are symphonies, and then there are Mahler symphonies.

What's my favorite Mahler symphony? The one that I just heard.
And there are Mahler symphonies, and theres the Mahler 3rd Symohony

at least a percussionist wont worry about neighbor cuz human cranium can also be a percussion instrument, haha

Mahler touches my soul. Maybe the most beautiful movement in all of his symphonies. Thanks so much for doing this.
Barry Bryant a bold statement! 🙂
I just finished crying, and then all of a sudden this appears on my feed... looks like I'm gonna have to start crying again! Mahler lives!
This is a wonderful gift from the BSO. Margaret Symonds
What a wonderful way to begin Palm Sunday and the week of Passover. Mahler obviously understood the triumphant power of the human spirit in times of great need. Bravissimo!
That last cymbals note... that note means everything in the world. Everything why i live, why i play, why is it.
Everything
"A symphony must be like the world"

Thank you for performing one of my favorite Mahler movements in such an intimate way. So deeply moved.
To hell with the four people who disliked this. Seriously.
@Malvin Risan That is a no no. We should simply frown upon the errs of their ways and then move on. XD
It's their loss really. Their thumbs down had no effect on my feelings of joy and communion and gratitude that Mahler lived and gave us his music.
@Sparticus Booker then why are you here?

Moved me to tears. Thanks for the beautiful performance. It brought light to my troubled soul.
Awe this was so cool. I cry everytime I hear this piece, an amazing selection for such times.
What a great performance by all these incredible musicians, especially my favorite trumpet player, Tom Bithell. Please give us more of these videos!
This performance brought me to tears! Wonderful music , wonderful playing! Thankyou.
I loved it! So glad you guys are still playing!

Congratulations from Brazil to all musicians.
Amazing! Thank you all. We needed that.
Bless you all and thank you. Bravo!
The most beautiful rendition I have listened in the past month. Thanks
Impressive and inspirational to all of us. Thank you!
