- The Hungarian conductor Iván Fischer shares his love for Ludwig van Beethoven Beethoven. In words and music he explains his passion and tells how Beethoven changed the world. "Beethoven changed something essential in the function of music".
Fischer: “At times Beethoven was an extreme introvert and at other times, he really just wanted to open up and express himself to people. If you come to all the concerts, I think you will go home with the feeling that you know Beethoven personally.”
In 2013 Fischer stayed for some time in Amsterdam because he was working on a Beethoven symphonies cycle together wit het Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra.

I love Ivan! He not only is a great conductor but he explains music to the public in a beautiful, understandable way.
totaly agree! so eduacative
And he is a really kind person, you can see it in his eyes!
You cab see it when he conducts too.@@memattia3198
He made me smile with every word he spoke
I love someone as passionate about Beethoven as I am :)
Emily me too :)
Bernstein's commentaries on Beethoven's Symphonies are also quite delightful, you can tell he greatly esteemed him.

Now I know that I´m not a crazy man, I am just like Iván Fischer when listening Beethoven
This man is a miracle of vitality and musicianship...like Beethoven himself. He has taken us into the very heart of the great composer. Magnificent....!!
How beautiful, I have never heard Ludwig van Beethoven explained like this. My favourite composer!
" if Beethoven where here you would be afraid of him". I love that.
ςεςxcepqt we know from testimonies that is not true
Oh my gosh! I don't know what I enjoy more... watching Ivan Fischer explain why he loves Beethoven, or watching him artfully and lovingly conduct Beethoven's symphonies. Amazing man. Men. Both.
How wonderful - two passions coming together in an incredible symphony! Wish we could've heard Ivan for two hours- he brings Beethoven alive like no one else. The "heroic" person in the Eroica is none other than Beethoven himself, my great hero!
Mind blown.
And that's why I start to love Ludwig at the age of 7 and never stopped loving HIM
Me too
I am a huge fan of Ivan Fischer , what a passionate guy.
This gives me such a precious appreciation of boisterous Beethoven's genuineness, intensity, intimacy, humour, energy.
the best and most enthusiastic comments about a person, music. My favorite artist /conductor the Hungarian Ivan Fischer!!
Én is szeretem :-)
I have always said that Beethoven was the first film maker, use your imagination, open your mind and you will soon see what Beethoven pictured in his mind when wrote his music. Absolute genius.
It is always wonderful to see such enthusiasm.
Me gusto muchisimo su explication. Mi imagen de Bethoven se aclaro de una manera sorprendente. Thank u so much.
look at his face how much he loves it when the third sinphony starts
I love this man's enthusiasm! Beethoven is my hero.
amazing explanations!!!
Wow thank you.
Loving Beethoven in a far far distance to every beloved one. And loving you for these works
O maior intérprete de Beethoven vivo! Bravo Maestro! ❤
extremely insightful, the history lesson was amazing
This is Love ..... (music is Love - feelings - being touched)
I like Ivan´s enthusiasm to put words in music as if he exclaims a poem out of heart!
IMMENSELY entertaining and educational.
Beethoven was the first composer to attempt to connect with me (and this was before I was even born). I'm still waiting for the second.
Listen to the last 20 minutes of the Bach St. Matthew Passion. Then listen to the whole thing.
I cannot remember a time of my life when Beethoven was not there. As a child I would put on a record of one of his symphonies, and in the dark conduct it.
Fisher’s description of Beethoven and his music draws a person to the genius!
I also love Ivan Fisher. He signed my program years ago and said he must get back home (in Hungary?) where his wife is preparing Passover. So I felt an attachment to him. He confessed to all he was a Jew.
This intervieuw is so wunderfull. I love him and Beethoven ♥️
When you listen to Fisher you can sense his passion for music!
Happy 250. birthday Ludwig van ❤️
The interviewer is just like... aw fug, I dont really need to be here. Just do your thing Ivan!
What an utterly brilliant dissertation on the genius of Beethoven ! Maestro Fischer has in this video superbly analysed some of the works of the Master, his style his other worldly sheer genius, Fischer understands him so well and takes us laymen through all the nuances of the music and helps us to understand why he wrote the music he did and what he wished to convey. He was revolutionary, his music was so revolutionary, a wake up call to us slumbering mortals totally unafraid , unparalleled grandiosity, heart rending pathos, infinite romanticism, he wrote it all, all the colours of the musical spectrum in all its magnificence . Thank you Maestro for helping us to understand , to put into words and describe so beautifully , the moods and nuances of the genius of Beethoven!👏👏👏👏
Awesome! Absolutely loved every minute of this interview.
fantastic summary about Beethoven. Thank you Ivan. I truly enjoyed this.
the journalist was not up to such a conversation with a man who has a lot to say
I think he did well
And listened
Fischer is a LEGEND. This is lovely.
This is so inspiring on the eve of my visit to Bonn to the Beethovenhaus in the 250th year of the commemoration of his birth. Thank you Iván Fischer.
I am speechless...
How great Fisher talks about Beethoven! I thought I was listening to Beethoven in words, facial expression, and gestures! I wish the talk were much longer! Thank you!
Bravo , je vous admire ! Quelle leçon de vie au travers de Beethoven....
Out of nowhere - A Wild Beethoven emerged!
For me, Beethoven introduces unbridled emotion into formal music that didn't exist in earlier classical and baroque periods. He was the first to incorporate *any* emotion - anger, despair, grief, passion, jealousy, horror, fear - and not just the pleasant, pretty, tranquil, soothing and safe sounds and emotions of his predecessors.
Wow just wow, I always wondered why as a 6 year old I was drawn to Classical. I grew up in a very poor area 50 yrs ago on a council estate in the NW of England, and Classical music was unheard of. It always set my heart pounding, it was so unusual that my Dad drove me to my mothers uncle who was a proper audiophile to see what he thought, I sat in his front room just me and him for about 3 hrs with his headphones on, going through his huge collection to see what it was that fired me up, some of it I didn't get at all but there was a lot I did. We stayed another 2 or 3 hrs while he made me a ton of tapes for me to take home. I was fascinated how you could make music from a record jump onto a tape😆. "Uncle Alf' was fascinated by my reactions, he said I was showing complete Joy in my face and body language. I was very traumatised as a kid and Classical took me somewhere else for a short time. I now know why.
@@22triggy I was fairly traumatized as well and music was a huge escape for me as well.
Listen to Monteverdi's Orfeo (1607), and then reevaluate your statement.
I agree! For me, Beethoven has an emotional power and intensity that no other composer has.
@@grafplaten I've seen the opera... it's not even close to Beethovens level of music. The last impressive thing in regards to art in the Renaissance is music. It took the middle and really the late Baroque era to make a real breakthrough. Monteverdi whilst excellent for his time, was far less of an influence to future composers Bach and others, until the very late 18th century, and even then rather slowly.
There is a reason why in their lifetime and continuously after their deaths, Bach and Beethoven have been paced at the top of the pantheon of music.
Great Ivan!!! Thank you so much Maestro! I love Beethoven too :)
Best video on music.he is fiery 6:56
I love this! Now I know I’m not the only one who sees things like sprouting crocus during Beethoven 😁. I LOVE the 4th symphony
"Isn't it wonderful?!!!" - almost superfluous given his enthusiasm over the previous 15 minutes!
I love his enthusiasm and his expression as the end of the 3rd movement builds into the 4th movement of the 5th symphony. I can definitely
relate to his explanation. "Wait, heartbeat, like it would search for something, heartbeat, where is it, look, look, here is comes! Then
arrival" Got to love it!
LUDWIG BEETHOVEN IS MY FAVOURITE COMPOSER - BUT AFTER THE LECTURE OF THIS WELL KNOWLEDGED MAN - I LIKE BEETHOVEN EVEN MORE ------
Passion painted with words...!!!
It made me weep
Who in the world could downvote this. People who hate music? Thank God for Beethoven, a shining light on a world that going straight down the drain.
Was für ein Poet! Ein ganz großer Musiker!
Beethoven needs to have passionate people conduct his symphonies.
My Radiology Professor loved to tell the story of Beethoven and Paget's Disease, in which his bones started growing after adulthood. A patient will complain that his hat is getting smaller. (We lived in different times back then). The bones of his auditory canal crushed the nerves, rendering him deaf.
My favorite director !!!Iván greath☘️☘️👍👍👍
"Isn't it wonderful?" Yes Ivan it certainly is.
OUTSTANDIBG WORK SIRS , thank you for this !!!
Very well done talk! Fully agree!
I just listened to Fischer conduct the RCO in the 7th th-cam.com/video/-4788Tmz9Zo/w-d-xo.html and thought "Now THIS is a conductor who understands Beethoven"... and then I see this interview. It all comes together. 6:53 Beethoven displays his sense of humor!
The same here. Exactly the same!
You are wonderful. Very sensational, expressive & passionate . I fully enjoyed every word you said and every move you made.
"sensational, expressive & passionate" - like beethoven!
Such an awesome explanation from Ivan Fischer! Thank you for posting!
Ik word helemaal blij van die man
13:00 In the finale of the Eroica the oboe leads the way into the great and grand version of the little pizzicato theme that began the movement.
A master musician. What a brilliant man
Isn't it wonderful? It's wonderful!
So convincing...Thanks maestro!
BRAVO !!!
wonderful !
Grande Iván!
He can't seem to control himself when the music is on.
Ivan Fischer is full of life.
Fischer's talking about the 5th symphony 3 movement is great
It is just Beethoven, yes it is beautiful
I give thanks to God for that incredible chance, the chance of having Beethoven on earth
As clear as Beethoven's music itself. No Mumbo Jumbo!
Bravo! Bravo!! Bravo!!!
Beethoven: my beloved Immortal ❤🥰💗💞💞💞
6:53 someone has a sense of humor (whoopie cushion!)
i maintain Beethoven 3rd symphony created the biggest tectonic shift in all of music - Stravinsky Rite of Spring being a close second
I don't understand if people can say that their favourite composer is Grieg or Rachmaninov (nothing against them) when we have Beethoven or Bach.
Beethoven's favourite was Handel. :)
It means that other people have different tastes from yours. This is easy to understand for a lot of people.
Yeah, I can respect that. It is not their fault. My problems only starts when they insult great composers because they don't feel them.
Rachmaninov is marvelous, but I think there is no composer to match Beethoven’s diversity and genius
his face at 02:21 🧡
I loved this. But I really wish one of the titans of modern symphonic music would include the Pastoral in their explication. The very definition of changing moods, but with no battles--other than nature-- and it tuns out to be lit-giving.
6:56 wtf is that noise he is making btw???
Iván Fischer: trust me bro
Vrije Geluiden:
❤Indeed.
❤Wonderful inreed.
❤inreed.
Really eloquent guy.
9.56 Floodgates opened the dam has burst.
Slavoj Žižek of conductors.
What articulation!!
What is the name of the mozart divertimento?
I popped an edible before finding this and it's blowing my mind
And Beethoven's opinion of Bonaparte wasn't theoretical: The French bombarded and occupied Vienna in 1809, he took cover in a cellar.
Vudda guy!!!!!!!!
Porfavor traduzcan o pongan títulos no todos sabemos idiomas y si nos interesamos en el querido betito
A wonderfully illuminating and inspiring interview. But it isn’t entirely correct to say that Beethoven severed all connection between his Third Symphony and Napoleon. True enough, on hearing of Napoleon’s coronation, he tore up the title page - with its heading “Buonaparte”- in a fit of fury. But when the symphony appeared in print , the title (in Italian) still referred to Napoleon , though without naming him - “ Heroic Symphony in memory of a great man “.
Shame for the interviewer, he's not feeling it at all.
Aka while everyone hated him while he was alive. Now they love him . Ironic
Video de triple concierto
A little more entertaining than educational, as it is willing to embrace the cliche for the sake of making a point (the aristocracy wasn't actually or even metaphorically dead, during Beethove's time, rather it paid his bills... and the orchestra of the premiere of the Eroica [there's a recording of the same size orchestra in the place it was premiered on NEOS (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B001C58N60/nectarandambr-20) with Daniel Grossmann, for those interested] was rather smaller than that used for late Mozart Symphonies or Haydn's Paris or London symphonies... but yes, Fischer Iván is entertaining to watch and listen to. The same sparkle and enthusiasm that can be heard on many of his recordings.
