It's a real treat to watch Jurowski conduct --he visibly reveals his inner feeling and emotion for this work .
It really does. It's an extremely emotional symphony
The Apotheosis gives me goosebumps. This Symphony is getting the respect it deserves being performed at the BBC Proms. Liszt is one of my favourite composers. He was a genius, and this symphony alone proves that.
goosebumps here all the way through!
Liszt. One of the greatest composer and the world's greatest pianist
El más grande es JUAN SEBASTIAN BACH, los demás son buenos. Esta valoración es dicha por especialistas y músicos.
@@Ferrer-385 Aprende a leer. Dijo: "Uno de los más grandes compositores y el más grande de los pianistas del mundo". Liszt fue más grande como pianista que Bach, de hecho, Bach ni siquiera tocaba piano, porque el piano se inventó en los últimos años de Bach, y Bach lo tocó muy poco.
"The world persisted to the end in calling Liszt the greatest pianist in order to avoid the trouble of considering his claims as one of the most remarkable of composers" - Camille Saint-Saens.
yes
also what they did to Rachmaninoff lol (of course I'm sure both deserved their titles as "greatest pianist", but there remains to this day a certain musical snobbery directed toward both of their music)
@@DanielKRui Rachmaninoff is THE best .
When I got into vinyl, this was one of the first classical composition I got by Liszt. And my impression was like wow the sound it's just out of this world!! Truly an amazing piece of music!!!
Liszt is definitely out of this world.
One of my favourite pieces...a beautiful deep musical story
Beautifully put! I am trying to get better acquainted with this piece after being an admirer of his Dante Symphony for many years. He probed the deepest corners of music and literature for sure.
Excellent! Liszt's masterpiece performed very well.
when I was younger, I misread "the Eternal Feminine" as "the Eternal Famine" which one must admit sounds way cooler and edgier.
We enter expecting the great known Pianist; and exit learning of a great composer!
The work is scored for an orchestral complement of piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four French horns, three trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, cymbals, triangle, organ, harp, and strings. A tenor soloist and TTB male choir (two tenor parts and single bass part) are also employed in the final movement.
Großartige live Aufführung dieses großartigen Sinfonie mit gut harmonisierten und perfekt synchronisierten Töne aller Instrumente sowie herrlicher Stimme des Solisten und gut vereinigten Stimmen des ganzen Chors. Der geniale Maestro leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut phrasierten Tempo mit effektiver Dynamik.
thrilling interpretation....
Great interpretation!!!
I just love the way he wrote the Gretchen Movement in Ab major, instead of G or A major like most composers would. Liszt can even make D minor sound good.
una versione bellissima!! è convolgente come la famosissima versiona di bernstein. l'orchestra è perfetta. bravissimo il maestro jurovsky!!☺
Fantastiche entrambe le versioni...ma,a mio parere,Solti ancora meglio!!

Excellent performance!
David Faust enjoyed listening to this. ... Beautiful. ...
David Faust What a nice coincident, Faust listens to Faust
@@sherifel-haggan7196 lol
Beautiful performance of this great masterpiece! I can understand why it is so rarely performed, since it calls for vast resources, so your post of this performance is that much more valuable- thank you!
The resources it calls for aren't that vast. I believe it has more to do with the fact that Liszt is a bit out of fashion and that the string parts in this are fiendishly difficult to play and orchestras resent Liszt for that. I have heard players complain about it: You may be able to play that on a piano easily, but not on a Violin!
@@Quotenwagnerianer I've heard violinists bitch and moan about Bruckner symphonies all the time, but that doesn't prevent conductors from programming them all the time.
@@belakozma8649 For me, Liszt is one of the most significant and influential composers of the Romantic era! I love his music.
@@Quotenwagnerianer Dear Mr. Quotenwagnerianer! If Liszt is "obsolete," then Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven are also obsolete. Liszt's music is still relevant today. It should not be a problem that it is difficult for violinists to play the Faust Symphony.
@@belakozma8649 Your thesaurus is broken.
"Fell out of fashion" is not the same as "obsolete".
So please don't make an argument against something that I never said.
Favorite symphony ☺️🎼
It is a symphonic poem it isn't symphony☺
@@markojovanovic38 You are partially correct. Each movement is in effect a symphonic poem but presented together as a symphony.
@@chrisridenhour I think i somewere read that Liszt in war of Romantics said: The symphonie died with Beethoven 9.
@@markojovanovic38 I love that era of music history. That sounds like something he would say.
@@chrisridenhour me too
Superb!!!
Like the first light of twilight, this music opens your eyes to old promises and to all the anomalies of nature. Evocative of powers beyond observation, these pieces pull the strings of the heart, attract nostalgia and awaken regrets, flayed lives and the torpor of tormented watchers 🌺🕊
Bravissimi. Molto emozionante.
Une belle découverte ! Merci !
T'as raison frérot.
Alles Vergängliche
Ist nur ein Gleichnis;
Das Unzulängliche,
Hier wird's Ereignis;
Das Unbeschreibliche,
Hier ist es getan;
Das Ewigweibliche
Zieht uns hinan.
Everything transitory
Is only an allegory;
What cannot be achieved,
Here it will come to pass;
What cannot be described,
Here it is accomplished;
The eternal feminine
Draws us aloft.
@@zrshwe Liszt stole this from Mahler.
@@garfreed These are the last verses of "Faust: The Second Part of the Tragedy" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Thus surely the fitting end for a Faust symphony.
www.deutschestextarchiv.de/book/view/goethe_faust02_1832?p=356
Apart from this Liszt wrote the Faust symphony in 1857. While Mahler started working on his 8th symphony in 1906.

Great performance!
Beautiful
Gretchen....31:30.............Mephistopheles.....52;15......This piece is clearly Liszt's orchestral masterpiece. The Gretchem movement is VERY close to Tristan at many points...and the choral, tenor solo finale is highly reminiscent of the Mahler 8th....same theme and words.
No better than Dante's.
Great!
The tenor here is Marco Jentzsch.
Greetings from East Anglia in England.
Fantastic performance and interpretation. I also listened to this symphony by the Boston Philharmonic conducted by Leonard Bernstein, but this one is far better. By the way, I wonder whether the RCO also asked Jurowski to succeed Daniele Gatti. If not, this feels like a missed opportunity to me.
Of course this one is better. Mostly due to the fact that Bernstein never recorded this with the Boston Philharmonic 🤣
@@detectivehome3318 😂😂 I had to search to find out if there is a Boston Philharmonic . Evidently there is but of course he meant to say Symphony Orchestra. 😆
Bravo
31:40 Gretchen 52:32 Mephistopheles 1:08:42 Apotheosis
¡Liszt! Enorme influencia sobre Mahler, eh.
Indeed
Too underrated.
yes
One of the greatest symphonies ever composed!
Thanks for the upload. Not my favourite performance overall though kudos to the combined male choruses of the LPO & LSO, the finest I’ve ever heard in this work.
The Master at hus best
Yo quería escuchar los diez minutos de aplausos 😢
Liszt Ferenc sokat foglalkozott e témával, mi sem természetesebb, hogy erről is alkotott egy szimfóniát.
I never understood why are people coughing between movements.
Because they don't during the movements...
Performance art.

لعلها اول سمفونية تعتمد على اللامقامية،وتستغل كل امكانت النوتة الاثناعشر،وقد تأثر بها رتشارد فاجنر
Vladimir Jurowski's direction is superb; compare to Bernstein's hand-flapping mélange.
oh por favor, no lo estarás diciendo en serio
@@fauredaniel57Lo digo en serio. La dirección de Bernstein es una caricatura de un director maníaco.
Estuve viendo hoy el video de Bernstein con la orq de Boston, me parece magistral. Todo de Lenny me gusta. Por ahi es cosa de gustos y nada mas. Ahora, este pibe Jurosky. No dudo que es un gran director, o no estaría frente a semejante orquesta en el Albert Hall. La actuación aqui presente no me convence nada. Qué se yo. De nuevo, gustos y nada mas. No soy músico profesional, ni nada. Te mando un saludo
No wonder why I don't listen to this too often!
Liszt > Wagner argue with me
They are both great. But one thing is for sure: Wagner was influenced a lot by Liszt, especially in his "harmonic language". Also Wagner was much supported by Liszt financially. Without Liszt none of us would have even heard about Wagner.
I think List was more virtuoso than composer, whereas Wagner was more composer than the virtuoso. Wagner created great operas, great music and poetry that still is gorgeous and unsurpassed. List just played well, even better than Chopin.
There is no Wagner without Liszt. Actually I think there is no Wagner or Strauss or Mahler without Liszt. Who's better? That's another story
@@ivanmilonov Alfred Brendel has a good point on this. Anyone who believes that Liszt is primarily about virtuosity shouldn't bother with his music. Sure he employed his considerable technique in his piano works, but in most cases he did this for a greater musical purpose
@@jamesfeatherstone9969 of course he did. I admire his music and his impact on music, his technique and methods. He is one of the greatest musicians the world has ever seen. But in the sphere of piano. We must understand that musical art can be divided into spheres, moreover we must divide the art. And Liszt' sphere is not opera, is not musical drama, is not the world of gods, myths and greatness (it may sounds paradoxically but anyway). I don't want to say that his genre is worse than Wagners's one, do not think so. Just different things

Creepiest conductor I've ever watched.
yes, somehow I enjoy watching him very much, somehow it's matching to the ironic music of Mephistopheles
