Spectacular. No matter how many times I hear this symphony, I still get chills when the horn players stand "so as to drown out everything…even the trumpets."
This is great!! I love Fabio Luisi's interpretation is fantastic! As a horn player, I enjoy seeing the climax of the Finale being played by the 7/8 horns without support from a trumpet and trombone as Mahler himself placed in the score as an option. I often wonder why Mahler did not utilize 7-8 Wagner tubas instead of standard horns in this passage. Anyone who has heard the Universal Studios fanfare cannot tell the difference between the horn and the tuben until they know exactly where one ends and the other begins and even then it is not so obvious except the tuben project more. My graduate horn professor often referred to these tuben as 'horns on steroids'. I would love to see a performance of this Symphony where the horn players would put down the horns and take up the tuben for these last several minutes of this work. I really do believe Mahler would approve.
Try "Rafael Kubelik Mahler 1" with the Bavarian Symphony Orchestra on youtube. The studio version (Deutsche Grammophon) is even better. Many, including me, regard his interpretation as the best version.
Don't be misunderstood. This version with Luisi and the Staatskapelle Dresden is one of the best I've heard. I just wanted to check some parts of the symphony and ended in listening to almost everything. And everything was done with precision and perfect expression. So, the applause at the end was very well earned.
@@scottmiller6495 What's with the multiple exclamation marks? One is more than sufficient! And so what? I belong to those many and I still think the 1st is heavily overperformed and overrecorded.
So true. Same tremendous video quality in Mahler 2, also in the same magnificent hall in Munich, conducted by the Russian guy, Valery Gergiev, who lost his position there because of the Ukraine war
Nice interpretation of one of my favourite composers, the feeling is just wow, a mix of different emotions. That's why I love Mahler, Rachmaninov and Wagner.
Fabio Luisi is currently the chief conductor of the NHK Symphony Orchestra in Japan, so I have listened to his performances many times. And I can hear all of his performances sound like opera. Even Brahms and Beethoven. But this performance sounds like a symphony. He's a great conductor!
Bravo! Great interpretation, especially the account of the trio-very characterful. And based on the pictures I’ve seen Maestro Luisi looks like Mahler. 👏👏👏👏♥️🎶🎻🎵
Interesante, épico, victorioso y esplendoroso, eso es una sinfonía de Mahler, puede que hayan mejores interpretaciones pero por lo menos pude disfrutar una vez más de este TITAN DE LA MÚSICA, la melodía de los cornos en la marcha del finale me recuerdan siempre al coro "Aleluya" de El Mesías de Händel, tal vez haya sido inintencional de la pluma de Mahler, pero se siente victorioso como el triunfo de un gladiador quien pasa su niñez en el campo para luego ser convocado a una batalla astral. GRACIAS MAHLER Y GRACIAS DW CLASSICAL MUSIC.
Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführung dieser spätromantischen und melodisch komponierten Sinfonie mit seidigen Tönen aller Streicher, milden Tönen aller Holzbläser und brillanten Tönen aller Blechbläser. Der zweite Satz klingt echt kräftig und auch beweglich. Der intelligente und geniale Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik, als wäre er ein zweiter Mahler. Wunderbar vom Anfang bis zum Ende!
Like most conductors he slows down at (in this performance) 44:46-45:03 even though the score is marked "a tempo." This destroys the contrast with the later recurrences of the motif, when the score does indicate a change in tempo. Jascha Horenstein is one of the few who follows the score at this point, and the movement benefits tremendously.
I find the termpi in this performance often inexplicable. He slows and speeds the scherzo very oddly, bringing it almost to a halt and then zooming back at breakneck speed. In the third movement when the clarinets break into the 'parodie', the score is marked 'nicht schleppen', which Maestro Luisi interprets as 'race away so fast it's like a new piece of music has begun'. This performance has lovely moments, but the symphony's shape is lost with all the odd tempi.
Certainly not a metronome conductor! As noted by many below, style, knowledge, interpretation and delivery are variable and personal. I enjoy the variety of comments of the conductors and orchestras noted below. I would be pleased to listen to, and see many of the conductors and orchestras not on you tube who are/were the 'greats' of their time if they did Mahler. I wonder what Mahler would say in this and other postings if he were able to comment.
The tempo changes in the second movement are very abrupt which I haven't heard in other interpretations! I actually like it, it really adds a layer of confusion and chaos!
Interesting how there seems to be no joy written on the musician's faces. Dresden thing? Touring thing? Conductor thing? The ghost of Celi hanging in the hall, threatening to fire anyone who screws up on the spot?

Magnificent. I also love the journey of the conductor’s hair from the beginning of the piece to the end
😂😂😂😂😂😂 that has me sniggering... my family are looking at me wondering. 😮😂❤
@@maddannafizz 😂😂😂
XDDDDD
This conductor is incredible, superb discovery!
Fabio Luisi becomes more and more one of my favourite Mahler conductors. His energy is not often seen :D
It was Bernstein, Abbado and Tennstedt and many other greats from the recent past, now you have Dudamel and this guy among many others!!!!!
ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL i honestly felt so emotional this is unbelievable to my ears.
Absolutely spectacular Mahler 1st ! One of the best renditions. Proud of Fabio Luisi ,who is from Genoa, my hometown...

Very beautiful. Respect conductor and orchestra.
Bravo! What a phenomenal performance. I love this orchestra! My favorite Brahms 3 is Abbado and Staatskapelle Dresden.
One of the BEST under Maestro Fabio Luisi!!!
Top top notch orchestra. This orchestra always delivers a spectacular performance.
Absolutely spectacular performance!
Wonderful, wonderful performance, and excellent video production. Thank you and congratulations to you all.
We're glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Fabio Luisi from a distance does look quite like Gustav Mahler!
Doesn,t he though !
Fabio have more better hair)
@@scottmiller6495 JEWS JEWS JEWS !)
Fabio is more like Beethoven
with a fever of 40°
A very fantastic performance worthy of a standing ovation, Bravo !!!!!!

Late lunch goes well with Mahler! Thank You Ladies and Gentleman 😎
Hmm, I'm at dinner time: Miso soup.
It’s so interesting to hear Mahler 1 interpreted by so many different orchestra and conductors! It’s always such a treat
As much as I like the work, I think it being overperformed. It's probably one of the most recorded symphonies ever.
@@Quotenwagnerianer And the Best 1st Symphony of all time by any composer in classical music history !!!!!
Many people consider Mahler one of the greatest if not thee greatest composer of symphonies of all time !!!!!

I love this performance - so fresh and outdoors-y.

Musik für's Herz ❤ und die Seele. Einfach wunderschön!!!
Excepcional video, por la magnífica interpretación, de la Sinfonía Titán de Malher, además por la excelente caludad de la Televización.
So true. Same tremendous video quality in Mahler 2, also in the same magnificent hall in Munich, conducted by the Russian guy, Valery Gergiev, who lost his position there because of the Ukraine war
Roo Bookaroo, muchas gracias.
Espetacular interpretação. Amei. Gravação muito boa também.
This brother is a monster. How does he get his bands to play so well??????????!!!!????? Damn!
This is the oldest band in the world. They've been around for 500 years. It's very hard to make them play *NOT* well.
@@zauber620Did they play for Hiltr ?
@@MANIPSahTV of course
@@zauber620 ah :/ I would boycott them if I was a conductor that's already famous and had no need of them to grow
@@MANIPSahTVare you okay?? What is that reasoning even
Nice interpretation of one of my favourite composers, the feeling is just wow, a mix of different emotions. That's why I love Mahler, Rachmaninov and Wagner.
Rachmaninoff is too technical and Tchaikovsky influence; Stravinsky, Mahlër and Wagzist better
Fabio Luisi is currently the chief conductor of the NHK Symphony Orchestra in Japan, so I have listened to his performances many times. And I can hear all of his performances sound like opera. Even Brahms and Beethoven. But this performance sounds like a symphony.
He's a great conductor!
Thanks for sharing your impressions of the concerts with us.
Maestro Fabio Luisi has it all
Heard him conduct a transcendent "Goetterdaemmerung" on a broadcast from the Met. Since then, he's known in our house as Fabuloso Luisi.
Bravo! Great interpretation, especially the account of the trio-very characterful. And based on the pictures I’ve seen Maestro Luisi looks like Mahler. 👏👏👏👏♥️🎶🎻🎵
too strident.. Trio was awful. . dumped it half way
Love the interpretation - great performance!
Extraordinaria interpretación
"Evening D'Albert! Masterful performance my friend."
Que maravilha começar meu dia ouvindo essas magníficas melodias!
❤🎼🎶🎶🎶🎵🎷🎺🎻📯
What an ending!!!! BRAVO
It's pretty good but I like when the ending to this epic symphony has the bass drum and typany go Boom Boom, it's more Exciting!!!!!
Thank you and big congratulations to DW Classics. I hope it will stream more.
We are glad you enjoyed it! 😊
For a moment I thought Beethoven was conducting, looking at the cover pic!
Bravo maestro.
Very nice..
Amazing.
To watch Maestro Luisi attack the finale was quite something! By the way, the horn theme in the finale was inspired by Hans Rott.
It's not much of a theme.
@@davidalderson4980 099⁹⁹

❤❤❤❤❤
Saw him conduct Mahler 5 recently. He is absolutely amazing!

There has tristan and orientalism elements

Esecuzione delicata forse nello spirito del maestro Malher
ohne zu schleppen, top
Excellent performance. Wonderful orchestra, but now go and see Kubelik perform same work.
Kubelik’s Mahler cycle is to die for my friend, and his interpretation of the first stands out above the rest, for me at least.
素晴らしい
Ganz toll.
👍 Güzel insanlar ,teşekkürler.
The tempo changes in the second movement are very abrupt which I haven't heard in other interpretations! I actually like it, it really adds a layer of confusion and chaos!
great
素晴らしいマーラーですね。
The description above is not correct. The performance took place at the Philharmonie in Gasteig (Munich), not at the Kulturpalast (Dresden).
Thanks you for your comment, you are right! We have corrected the description. 😊
Thanks you-- thought that hall looked familiar and I've never been to Dresden...
Interesting to hear this piece interpreted by Mahler himself. Lol
I was thinking that as well, a resemblance to Mahler
This is the man who should be artistic director of the metropolitan opera.
Mahler the God
of his symphonies 😮 ❤
Aeterna Glory,, Lux and Thank you Sirs
¡YO LO ESCUCHE Y LO APRUEBO!
Nada como um italiano regente !! As caras e bocas dele são ótimas !
it's always like i died and went to heaven in the 3rd movement at 32:50
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is Franz Welsar Most!!
A me mi garba!
😌
Maestro really should wear a helmet for this piece.
Fabio Luisi looks like my 9th grade data processing teacher, Mr. Grenzebach. He could recite the counties of California in alphabetic order.
😂
Beethoven conductor ❤
What‘s happening at 3:03 ? Some unconventional percussion? 😉
But Gustav Mahler would have appreciated the noise 😄
Best version of Titan after Abbado
Are you sure that this is the (old) Kulturpalast concert hall and not the Philharmonie in Munich?
Thanks you for your comment, you are right! We have corrected the description. 😊
On the 3rd movement... It wasn't supposed to start with SOLO Bass?
Hello..
3rd movement, it's a solo of 1 doublebass, not a group!!!
Interesting how there seems to be no joy written on the musician's faces. Dresden thing? Touring thing? Conductor thing? The ghost of Celi hanging in the hall, threatening to fire anyone who screws up on the spot?
San Diego.
Hair its a Beethoven hair ❤
这是继滕斯泰特和阿巴多以外听过的最平衡的马一!
Why would anyone state the conductor is as good as the composer when the composer is Mahler?
54:35
He looks like Klaus Tennstedt.
