- An astounding display of viruosity by Gautier Capuçon and the Münchner Philharmoniker led by Valery Gergiev during the George Enescu Festival in Bucharest. Recorded 7th September 2021.
Movements:
1. Allegretto (00:46)
2. Moderato (7:16)
3. Cadenza - Attacca (19:10)
4. Allegro con moto (25:11)
This cello low notes sound like a powerful double bass. This is impressive. Also the horn player did a really good job, its not that usual to hear it played so well.
About the horn player, you should listen to horn player in the Maisky version. brilliant
This is exactly how I want this concerto to be played. Wide, solid sound with tons of friction.
The music of Shostakouich
speaks to the soul, gently, solemnly, , and sorrowfully
Capuçon is an exceptional cellist and I love his attention to articulation and precision. It's just always so clear in his phrasing where many just ram through those passages. Also, being quite of a short and light stature compared to some other top cellists, he needs that cut-through sound, his cello is formidable and set up for soloist action, I'm sure it can mellowed out for different purposes and sound a lot sweeter if needed.
This and Elgar's have to be the most beautiful, powerful pieces ever written for cello
Elgar’s is my favorite to play by far, the beginning of it and the whole third movement are so enjoyable. difficult not to play the whole thing espressivo or appassionato
Don’t forget Dvorak
Quel virtuosité, c'est magnifique, un immense merci à Gautier Capuçon. Que du Bonheur.
Наслаждение ! первоклассный оркестр, дирижёр,солист, интерпретация , звукорежиссёр. Высшая степень перфекционизма 👏👏👏
I love Dmitri's sense of rhythm, quirky sounds and somber yet sweet moods, played beautifully by Gautier & company. BRAVO!
By far my favorite recording of this piece! I've been looking for a performance that was executed with such friction and force, the way I have been wanting to hear this piece, and I feel Capuçon has emulated that and more. Absolument spectaculaire!

I was lucky to be in the audience. this was a gripping performance.
I had the privilege of seeing Rostropovich play this on two separate occasions.
Não me canso de ouvir. A cadência contagiante. O diálogo entre o cello e a celesta (salvo erro) é indiscritível. Bravo ao todos!!!!!Bem hajam
❤️Thanks for the endless love and support you have constantly shown me in such difficult moment. I’m forever grateful. I really appreciate your unconditional love to me and every effort exerted by you to cause a change…Where are you watching from?
I don't really like Shostakovich but this man performed this piece so much that I think I might make an exception for this piece.
I would agree with that statement. This along with some of his ballet suites are the only pieces I like by Shostakovich. (And his Festive Overture). Oh, and his 2nd Piano Concerto. His symphonies though....😵💫they're just so ugly
You have to really know his live. I think, then you can understand his music.
My fav cello concerto of all the time!
Mine is Dvořák but this is second
Et celui d’Elgar!
Gapucon is fantastic! And that beautiful cello he plays!
MAGISTRAL !!!!!! WONDERFUL !!!!! Thanksfully, sooooooo perfect, brilliant !!!!🙏💖

This is beautiful! My inarticulate thoughts are: This is like every emotional crescendo you feel when it leads to the summation of each antagonist you have ever visualized in your mind. The excitement, suspense, and grand finale, of each singularly and all encompassed. In one work of art and expression, with the grace of an accomplished ballerina in motion, Every pain, hope, and dream is offered on a single, elegant plate. ❤❤❤

What a wonderful performance!!
Best performance of the best cello concerto with the best soloist. Truly amazing
Вы слышали это в исполнении Растроповиче ? ?
J’aime beaucoup quel
Artiste génial ♥️🎶🎵🎻
Wonderful orchestra and for sure the cellist ✨️✨️💥❤️
Quelle belle performance ♥️🎶🎵🎹🎻
Outstanding performance!
Magnífico maestro, me encanta 🇦🇷🇦🇷 Marianelanuñez 🇪🇸❤️🇪🇸
Strongly powerful performance, I am grateful to listen to this.
Did Rostropovich, to whom this concerto was dedicated, play the moderato movement any more beautifully than Capucon? This performance is wonderful on everyone's part. Hoomeyow!!
Hoomeyow?
Great composer and remarkabeli nterpretion!

bruh who the hell moaned at 24:42 hahahahhaa
I think he's just enjoying playing the high note a little too much
I heard it too lmao
Awesome playing of a fantastic concerto!
I envy that Cello tone.
It is by far the best Cello Concerto ever written for me..
maybe yet try dvorak...
@@jerzystruczak782 lol, I already played it. It is not one of my favourite
Esse Violoncelo tem o som mais brilhante e potente q eu já ouvi, fantástico 😮👏🎵🎶
Великий Шостакович.
Bravo, bravissimo!
mr C. is most elegant of them all!!!
Kudos to everyone. Maybe the horn player earned an extra brownie point.
Bravo bravo, maravilloso concierto y a Matías Piñeira corno 👏👏
Remarkable cello -- I wonder what its provenance is. There seems to be a great deal of rosin or glue around the frame.
It's a cello made by Gofriller. Very distinct sound. I can tell any if any recording is using this make of cello.
@@jaydenlamcellari5526 i mean that is a very distinct sound. the first word i'd call it is c r i s p y
A cellist I met, Julian Schwarz, uses primarily a Gofriller. He described it as “a grumpy old man” and after letting me play it, I agreed😂it doesn’t sound great at first, you have to really put in some effort to make it shine unlike other more well known makers
@badhairdye, Even with my untrained ear (I am quite new to Western Classical Music), I can make out what you mentioned, to wit, that this cello has a distinctive sound. Thank You for making explicit what I only suspected!
Did u have the second cello concerto with this musicians? The album of both concertos it's one of my favorite records...
Thank u for share this video :)
Enescu Orchestral Suite No. 2 in C major Op. 20
Shostakovich Cello Concerto No.1 in E flat major Op. 107
Brahms Symphony No. 1 in C minor Op. 68
that was the program
It’s very… earthy? It feels like he just unearthed this cello and is dusting the dirt off with every bow stroke. I think I like that aspect of it.
Maravilhoso!❤
Fantástico 🇦🇷💙🇦🇷 Marianela 🇪🇸🎀🇪🇸
The audacity of complaining about a Goffriller. Academicism against the soul of musical interpretation.
Right? They sound gorgeous. So deep and earthy.
Did Gergiev really understand the message of Chosty, following to support Poutin ?
Títulos y autor, orquesta??? 🇦🇷💙🇦🇷 Marianela Nuñez gracias maestro🇪🇸🎀🇪🇸
Also to be recommended Mischa Maisky with Saarbrücken Radio Symphony (2011): Even more captivating than Moser …
¿Que wapo es el hombre?
✨✨✨💐
Whenever I’m practicing and my mom asks me to play something slow and melodic I always enjoy playing the last page :)
변화무쌍한 소리가 기가막힌 맛이다~!!
25:08
I'm sure this is a very naive comment but his cello looks like it's on it's last legs. The wood looks so old
To be fair, it's almost 500 years old at this point haha. It's been around a while, but it was made by a Luthier by the name of Matteo Gofriller, who is pretty famous for the quality of his cellos, which would explain why it sounds good still while being that old haha. Sorry for the wall of text, just a slight nerd then it comes to this stuff.
It’s a fabulous cello
It’s a 320 years old cello by Mateo Goffriller « L’ Ambassadeur » Made in 1701 !!
can you post the link to this performance?
Sorry for sounding like a bad person but was rhe intonation in the beginning a bit off???? I know it’s not everything but it kinda affects my perception alit
Les Français ne seraient-ils pas mélomanes ? Pourquoi n'y a t-il pas de commentaire en français ?
La France n'est pas (plus) un pays musical. Aya Akamura a remplacé Nadia Boulanger, JoeyStarr a remplacé Debussy .. etc ... La culture musicale des Français est au 4e sous-sol. A force de tout vouloir niveler par le bas, de tout mettre au même niveau où tout se vaut.
Je suis toujours étonnée par l’inexistence des commentaires en français!!!! Je suis d’accord avec le premier interlocuteur: où sont passés les mélomanes français car il y en a!!!! En plus là on a un magnifique soliste français....
Je suis entièrement d'accord avec votre commentaire. J'ajouterais la tristesse de voir à l'oeuvre ce qu'il me semble juste d'appeler : la décadence..@@francois-xavieresperance5007
Je le fais en anglais pour avoir une plus large audience..Mais les Français ne sont guère ouverts à des sons qui leur sont " exotiques".
более проникновенного исполнения этого произведения не слышал.
Die Kameraführung finde ich nicht gut. Immer diese Fixierung auf die Korpusmitte des Cellos - hätte gerne mehr die linke Hand des Künstlers gesehen bzw. das Gesamtbild des Solisten mit seinem Instrument
I wonder what the cellist's dynamic marking is at 2:11 ...? forte? It sounds like a hive of bees down on that C string...
It's actually fortissimo. See th-cam.com/video/i6rU9AYzCws/w-d-xo.html
there are continuous trilled half notes for quite a few measures it’s usually supposed to sound like that
Shostakovich wrote Fortissimo!
A rare mistake/memory slip at 4:46 from Capucon. Stunning performance otherwise!
I felt my heart drop 😂
He saved it like a champ!
It was not a memory slip, he went a little bit off with the tempo, so he had to adjust. It was a live concert after all.
My concern is about the sound quality, it's his way and I'm sure he likes it, but sometimes he press a lot and some notes are so short and with so little bow that it's hard to recognize any sound at all. My teacher would say: "it seems that he is playing inside a telephone cabin".
But of course, one has to be in the room to appreciate the whole thing. Imposible to know from a video.
Open question: Who can understand what Gergiev is conducting with that shaky hand? 🤔
😹😹😹😹😹😹😹
Dmitri liked his piccolos

🎉sim j'a ouvi ,tocado pelo rostropovishi, e melhor ainda, rostropovishi,regido por simitri shistakovishi
Pretty good - sticking so close to the frog to conserve energy and keep your bow arm from fatiguing is cheating a little no? Hard to follow in Rostropovich’s gigantic footsteps, but one of the best performances of this piece for sure.
Why would it be cheating?

I don't agree with the whole interpretation but his inputs are rather interesting and refreshing. Some of the orchestra wasn't reflecting his energy unfortunately.

Мда... Тяжело, однако, бедному французику Шостакович даётся. Внешние части звучат отвратительно. Много интонационных оплошностей. Про тембр инструмента и говорить нечего - кряхтящее бревно. Крах, одним словом.
Archet agressif, excès de vibrato, violoncelle à la sonorité exagérément claire sans aucune nuance de timbre, cette interprétation nous étouffe !
Mais c'est parfait pour cette musique.
@@ChollieD Peut-être, sûrement même, mais tant pis, je n'ai pas envie d'entendre cela.
Me complace así, precisamente.
I completely agree. There are other approaches to this piece (Gabetta, anyone?) that employ those techniques, but don’t push too far into discord that the cellist does a disservice to the mixture of pleasure and dissonance integral to the intended sound
Don‘t like the trembling right hand of Gergiev … makes me mad!
I agree. It's not communicating anything to the orchestra that I can tell. It seems self-indulgent, like singing in the shower.
Am here for the music.
Am not a performer.
how was his right hand trembling
Sa main droite est juste géniale :)
Umm excuse me but what the hell happened at 01:55 ? The cellist and the orchestra went completely out of sync and the cellist had to stop playing and shake his head . What happened?..
He had a rest, nothing wrong, keep watching.
nothing went wrong there lol
Ummm excuse me? Nothing happened there.
that's how it's supposed to sound
However, he skip by half a bar a few minutes later, at the section starting at 0:04:30, which he managed to remedy after a few bars.
That's one crappy cello
Nah just different tone
You have that wrong
are freaking joking? ahahah
I'm sorry if that was a wrong thing to say....I don't know a lot, so do feel free to correct me😊! Also as this is a piece I hv heard a lot , I just felt that the instrument didn't sound as good....
I don't like his cello he should think about a new one.
thats just ur opinion. i personally like its tone, it adds to the intensity of this piece specifically
@@noxgabriel5987 it's pretty obvious that what I said is a matter of personal opinion and taste i don't see the need to point out something so trivial and obvious my Friend.
Don't want to be rude, but this sounds awful. I don't think that any performers in this video did feel alright during the show. They should have cancelled that concert due to their underperformance.
Have you ever heard this concert at all?
@@marioroveda5481 Too many times and this was not good.
@@kentkorre4026 ok, we have different tastes then. i mean, I've actually heard capuçon live with another orchestra, and i found his sound to be too sharp, almost harsh. But i don't dislike this version in the video.
@@marioroveda5481 It is funny because Capucon's whole reputation is that he has a better sound than most players. But his sound is just ridiculously rough in many pieces. His teacher Heinrich Schiff and colleague Mork can achieve a large sound without ridiculous sharpness
@@kentkorre4026 I agree but I try to at least look on the plus in that the cellists timbres were pretty unique and refreshing. However the orchestra was not really matching his energy and some of his articulations were a smidge iffy
How is this a major piece? Shouldn't it be C minor? I know I'm wrong but I'm struggling to understand how something as melancholy, isn't written in minor? Is avoiding the flat third that important ?
- the internal dialog of a non-classically trained guitarist trying to catchup and understand.
hi, thats actually a pretty valid question considering that we are often taught that major keys have to sound cheerful
Since Shostakovich is a neoclassical composer of 20th century this concept wont really apply to him. Subjectively in his music, if a piece starts and ends on a note or chord (E-flat major), it can be considered Concerto in E-flat, even though everything in between is almost atonal. Take a listen to the start (0:49) and finish (6:59) of the first movement, and you will see that there is in fact a clean E-flat major chord. In short it has more to do with music theory than just feeling like a major key.
Also, you can take a listen to Prokofiev's sonata no. 6 in A-major which is supposed to describe world war 2, similar story there
Not to detract from his performance, but Gautier is so ridiculously handsome.
2:10
Rostropovitch le faisait beaucoup mieux. Ce n'est que mon humble avis. Valery Gergiev - the best.
miglior concerto per cello
Baller.
MARAVILLA PURA
Ukraine! Peace, Freedom and Democracy, Mr. Waleri Gergijew.
Don’t like the sound of his Goffriller - too rough - and not his staccato very near to the frog - too sharp. Prefer the performance of Johannes Moser and the HR Symphony with a furious final!
isnt this how shostakovich is meant to be like?
Honestly I rather dislike Mosers performance. The notes are just off in some sequences, and it feels like he put speed over accuracy. Also the horn player is in parts slowing down and playing the wrong notes, it's pretty irritating.
