_____________________________________________________
In its original conception, Mahler’s third symphony was built on a sequence of natural images that the composer detailed in programmatic subtitles to the various movements (there were seven at first, though the last of these eventually became the finale of his fourth symphony). From the first movement’s opening vision of the mythological deities Pan and Bacchus in procession (“Pan Awakes, Summer Marches In”), Mahler advanced to three movements devoted to living things: “What the Flowers of the Field Tell Me,” “What the Animals of the Forest Tell Me,” and “What Man Tells Me.” The last two movements have more ethereal sources: “What the Angels Tell Me” and “What Love Tells Me.” These notions guided the composer through the creative process. Yet after the work’s premiere, Mahler deleted the subtitles, feeling that they detracted from the overall effect.
Even in the absence of the composer’s subtitles, however, the music shows a clear progression. The first movement opens with majestic brass that gives way to mysterious and ominous themes. Despite sweeter interludes, the overwhelming mood is one of intense drama only slowly evolving into triumph. By sharp contrast, the sleepy sway of the second movement evokes an innocent dance of dreams, perhaps of the blooms of Mahler’s original concept.
For the third movement, a pastoral image is borne forth by poignant and playful woodwinds, muted trumpets, and the eventual addition of a post horn solo ringing out as if from afar. (The post horn was the valveless predecessor of the more modern horn, or French horn, and was used by mail coaches to signal their imminent arrival; its appearance here underlines Mahler’s ideal of a rural scene. Modern performances sometimes substitute a standard French horn.) A boisterous scene of folk celebration ensues, only to resolve into a restful mood.
For the fourth and fifth movements, Mahler brings in the human voice, first an alto solo and then for the succeeding movement alto with women’s and boys’ chorus. The first solo scene, a setting of “The Midnight Song” from Friedrich Nietzsche’s Also sprach Zarathustra, is suffused with the weariness of long despair, the weight of the world’s sorrows. Mahler dispels these shadows with the sunshine of the fifth movement. Here the text is a traditional folk poem from Des Knaben Wunderhorn (“The Boy’s [or Youth’s] Magic Horn”). Bell-like effects in the voices are richly complemented by the orchestra, with moods of jubilation and (briefly) tragedy resolving into an image of heavenly bliss. It all builds to a glorious conclusion, an eloquent adagio in which serene and prayerful moods alternate with passages of ecstatic release. (britannica.com) - เพลง
I’ll see this live in Vienna in a few days time - can’t wait😊
PS: Now after seeing the performance this video feels like a dress rehearsal - it was wonderful!!! I suggest doubters to attend a live performance before making judgements. KM was at one with the orchestra, the sound was incredible (this has something to do with the concert hall too). Marvellous!
Ik ook! Het worden mooie, muzikale dagen!
So will I! Tonight, excited!
This is a wonderful play of the 3rd Mahler Symphony. Mäkelä is extraodinario ! I love that conductor !
Klaus Mäkelä brings a level of brilliance and genius that celebrates both him and his work. I fully enjoy his animation, his energy and his gift.
Right
Ditto !

Listen to the impeccable May 6 th 2022 performance of the Mahler 3 with Mäkelä and the Oslo Philharmonic before you judge the conductor for this performance.
The Oslo version brings up with some chamber music vibes, following is an example : th-cam.com/video/a6bG3uDRqH4/w-d-xo.html till th-cam.com/video/a6bG3uDRqH4/w-d-xo.html, while the cello solo was muffled here : th-cam.com/video/iyluMFflK9Q/w-d-xo.html
Composer Orchestra and Conductor are so beautiful Harmony.
An interesting mix for this recording from the engineer at the mixing soundboard; the stage mics are almost all of the feed. There is very little ambient mix if any from the hall. The tell to this is how clearly the solo instruments are heard.
The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra is the best there is on the planet at this time. Amazing too in view of how many of the musicians are younger adults.
This is a great study of Dolby Atmos mixing; everyone fake that makes a good and stoniting job, but no one made nothing has to be do be done.😢

One of the greatest symphonies of all time.
Yep....the greatest !
Awsome performance in the middle of medoocre camera works. 😊😊😊
Mahler’s third symphony is one of the greatest symphonies of all time. I very much enjoyed this remarkable performance by one of the world’s best orchestras under the baton of a young and truly talented conductor. Despite his young age Klaus Makela has already achieved a lot, become a much sought after young maestro and is hopefully on a secure path to become one of the great conductors of the twentyfirst century. I am not at all surprised that the Concertgebauw has chosen him as its chief conductor. Well done Klaus.
카라얀 이후 미래가 가장 기대되는 클라우스 메켈레. 혜성처럼 등장해서 고지식한 오케스트라 단원들을 실력으로 휘어잡고, 음악과 악보와 음표를 자기 뜻대로 풍부한 감성과 창의성 넘치는 지휘로 모두 따라오게 만든다. 대단한 연주자!
i think, this is the best orchestra in the world. They have a great perfectionismus. So nice to hear this Mahler-Work

this conductor is absolutely fantastic
Concertgebow has Malher in it's veins ...
Mahler did conduct Concertgebouw in the Third in 1903
@@w.urlitzer1869 A shame that Makela doesn`t.
Makela is another young loud and fast buck, like Levine and Tilson Thomas were in their baby boy twenties, who caused critics with wax in their ears to ooh and aah in their reviews. I own over 40 Mahler 3rds already and find every rendition of some interest.
Bravo. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The finale was nicely done, and I liked the tiny pause ir stop before the very last bar/notes.
Utterly fabulous performance of this symphony!❤❤❤
BELEZA DE CONCERTO E QUE MAESTRIA EM TANTA COMPLIXIDADE MUSICAL ... PARABÉNS !!!
Quelle vibration que ce magnifique spectacle de musiciens, unissant la rigueur la passion.. pour un résultat de toute beauté 🎶💥💥💜
George Enescu festival has always the best music
I didn't feel bored at all. There were exquisite overlaps and reverberations in places, and phrases that would put a seasoned veteran to shame. And I felt that this playful sense of sound was the next generation of music.🍒🍒
Mahler , Symphony , in D minor , is beautiful
What an absolutely beautiful performance! My only gripe is that the camera work and editing feels a tempo behind. Often too tight a frame, too close, and consistently late to the actual instruments playing the hero part.
YES! That is what I call HD!!! In picture and sound, but also in this orchestras ambition to play this Mahler the best they can.

I am speechless, unbelievable.
In what sense? For me it is unbelievable that people think that this awful boy is a great conductor
get a life! Live & let live!
Magnificent!
Sublime
So far I've heard only the last movement, which was stupendous. If the rest of it is that good then I have no idea what the negative comments are about.
what a fantastic conductor wow
Wow, the conductor's a baby! Cant be a day over 25ish. Nice job! Suppose his cues are a bit amorphous...(although the YT compression algorithm isn't helping the sound quality)
SO WHAT?
20대 아이가 이미 거장의 반열에 올라섰군!! 아마 금세기 최고의 마에스토로가 될 듯!!!
This symphony should be thought of as meanderings with Mahler.
Grandiose,, l'une de mes symphonies préférées de Mahler, ici superbement dirigée par Makela avec un splendide Concertgebouw !

오..신이시여...
A shame the timpani and percussion were almost inaudible sometimes. Some wonderful articulation and 'breaths' ir stops between phrases in the finale. Nice tremolo too!
This is without any doubt my favorite Mahler Symphony, this time the sound it's perfec wich makes this great Royal Concertbouw Orchestra even more brilliant, which with Mr. Makela has reached a surprising level, his direction is immaculate, he is today undoubtely a brilliant young male director who plays cello as the gods also. Thank so much to make us enjoy this kind of quality
Why is this the best Mahler Symphony?
The Third is my favorite Mahler Symphony, because due to its extension and characteristics it is unique as a musical composition.Its colossal first movement is like a common characteristic of the gender, however when it passes it opens and tranforms into a sonata that isn't a classical sonata either, which is my favorite form of composition.I'm a music lover with some instruction in singing, in such a way that my judgment like all judgment, is somewhat subjective, otherwise it is better known that in matters of taste...nothing has been written so far.
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVISSIMO ❤
The director was reading the orchestra users manual most of the time.
Deeply moving, wonderful!
I don’t have the BEST ear in the world (just relative pitch) but I can see where more seasoned listeners would think this is lackluster. But the guy is 25!!! Although I won’t be around when he’s 55 I bet there will be improvement in things such as nuance. As for the audio that not may not be the venue, but the miking. My favorite interpreter is a toss-up between Bernstein or Barenboim. But no one understood Mahler like Lenny.
Noch so ein junger Dirigent, der weiß aber was er will. Klasse 😊
Frettolosa, l'ultimo movimento è letteralmente buttato via, non ci siamo proprio!!!

Excellent , very very good Mahler , symphony in D minor❤
Where's this taken from? A very wide hall with problematic acoustics..
Palace Hall in Bucharest. The problem with the acoustics is very well known but sadly Bucharest has no other big concert hall better suited for an orchestra...
I have sung in the choir for this performance. All of us in the musical branch in Romania know of this great problem, but, unfortunately, there is no quick solution for it. The Palace Hall was built solely for speeches and events, not music of any kind. There is no hall bigger in Romania that can host an event of such demand. By far, acoustics wise, the Radio Hall is superior. An investment such as a new big concert hall would require attentive planning, as the regular public would probably not be interested in attending concerts. It would only fill up when the festival comes. The Palace Hall is not being used for season concerts, whereas the Radio Hall and the Atheneum are. The two have a similar capacity of 800-900 seats. The position is most important for these kinds of events. The Atheneum and the Palace Hall are located in the center of city, in a bright area with lots of businesses, hotels and restaurants. The architecture of the Atheneum also brings in people that enjoy both a beautiful concert hall and a nicely-sounding one. The Radio Hall, although it is only 1-2km away from the Atheneum is not situated in a very lively neighborhood. The Radio Hall is housed by the Romanian Radio Broadcasting Corporation HQ, remotely placed on a residential street. People prefer the Atheneum because of the accessibility and the vibration of the surroundings over the Radio Hall, which is the best concert hall in Romania with marvelous live digital recording capabilities and has the biggest pipe organ in Eastern Europe. Imagine Romania were to build a massive concert hall. Nobody could get to it as it would be too far, having no place to build it in the city center. Personally, I believe the Palace Hall should be demolished and rebuilt from scratch. That would ensure a good concert hall in a nice area.

Some of the comments here are really sour grapes. It is a pretty good performance. I don’t like the hall and the percussion could be a bit more present, but for the younger generation of young conductors, I feel he is very promising. The orch chose him so all the best of luck.
Sour grapes? There is nothing called younger generation of conductor. A chief conductor of such an orchestra should be a true master. You don’t give him time to grow up. He shall grow up with youth orchestra before even touching orchestra on that level. It is a mistake, but all concertgebouw musicians are responsible for what they have now, they chose him.
@@johnnysun6166 It is a Concertgebouw tradition to hire young conductors who have a lot of potential. Mengelberg, Haitink, Chailly: all relatively unknown and fresh when they started. Eduard van Beinum was bred for years as an assistant conductor by the orchestra itself, Willem Kes, their very first conductor was an an acclaimed maestro, but left after 7 years.
Mäkelä is not 'a mistake'. He is now 'artistic partner', growing into his role as chief conductor for the next years, being 100% at the helm in 2027. Don't worry. They'll be fine 😉
It isn't sour grapes to conclude that a once great orchestra hired an immature conductor whose hair and suit are far more impressive than his conducting. He had an opportunity to grow and mature with an excellent Oslo Philharmonic but opted to rush to the head of the class before he was ready. On this occasion all he was missing were the "smart" glasses he usually wears when trying to perform Mahler.
Hahaha, a ‘once great orchestra’. You just WANT to be in a bad mood, don’t you? 😉
Name the great music directors the orchestra has attracted since Haitink? Based on artistic considerations they opted for kitsch rather than musicianship.@@markokassenaar4387
I’m aware that the end of the first phrase in the first movement has a dot at the end but why do orchestras insist on playing this like a burp A dot just means separation.
Try Manfred Honeck with Pittsburgh.
I know, I have never heard an orchestra play that note full length, yet.
9:41 никогда не видел столько отрицательных отзывов… надо пожалуй поискать другую интерпретацию…😢😢😢
As I listen to this, at the opening, the horns seem restrained. They should be joyous and powerful. The cymbal should be exhaltant.
I timpani sono protagonisti del finale di questa sinfonia, ma un'inquadratura anche minima no?
And you can barely hear them.
Is it me, or is the sound a bit....odd?
Definitely idd, and I couldn't hear the very important timpani.
Simply incredible for his age and superbly impressive attention to some details, however, the feel is not there yet. Nothing personal, but one has to live a good chunk of life to really get Mahler.
Wow, wonderful and astonishing! Each movement that leads applause is rare case of mahler symphony, isn't it?😮😳🤪
oh its just the tiktok world we live in, watch end of M3 with Abbado at Lucerne, n if you really want to go agog the end of M 9 also lucerne.
Great - many thanks for uploading, I enjoyed this - very much! As to the lack of ‘intensity’ of the orchestra - I disagree. Musicians express through music, based on the direction of the conductor. You may dislike his interpretation but he has the right to direct his troupes the way he likes!
That was a bit of a slog. Although honestly the sound engineer didn't improve things.
感覺雙方對樂曲的理解非常不同！並且離我們更遙遠了⋯
Why?
@@juneliu123 非批評，只是單純聽完的感覺
Le faltó empuje y fuerza a los timbales, las trompetas y demás metales los sentí muy apagados... La versión de Bernstein y Orozco son una buena referencia.
klaus makela est incroyable , un très grand maestro
Mir fehlen hier die Emotionen, Schade
Der letzte Satz ist schon gefühlt, auch gut geführt. Weiches Finale in den Pauken aber so steht es auch in der Partitur. Kann man so machen

Sorry but after 5 min.I need to go back to Mahler 3rd with Abbado at Lucern festival...
If a young person already imitates the master, he or she will grow old early. Among musicians, the only geniuses are composers who create music.
すばらしい!!!
I expected more from this performance..
The audio is a big part of the problem with this performance. I also suspect the musicians aren’t very inspired performing in a hall with such problematic acoustics. 😎🎹
But there's some rough horn-playing in this recording. Ugh.
I would never have imagined that this music could sound boring, but apparently I was mistaken
indeed, left me cold n unmoved, versus say abbado.
Listen, guys. You have all settled for a boob. Look how wonderful I look conducting Mahler 3. Come on! And whoever has said this is boring, yes, spot-on! I mean, of course there is some talent with Klaus Makela or else he would not be where he is, but at the same time there is much better out there, less malleable for sure, to choose from than this. If all it takes is politics and kissing ass to get the Concertgebouw job, I guess this is then what we've got.
Interesting what you say, and honestly I recognize my own ideas in your opinion when I listen to this recording. However, in the week before this recording I heard the RCO with Mäkelä twice with Mahler 3 in the Concertgebouw (Amsterdam). It was a transcendental performance that sparked conversation for weeks afterward. His "intertial tempi" mentioned in another comment created tremendous tension in the audience and were very appropriate at the time. I would like to blame the recording quality and the acoustics of this concert hall because I do not recognize the RCO in their performance from the week before, although that may be too simplistic.
Mäkelä knows how to play with everyone's attention span in a way that only the best conductors can. That is an ingredient that I think can help him grow to great heights. There are many things to note and that only stimulates the debate, which I find very interesting, but I can only recommend experiencing him live once to experience how inspired the orchestra plays under his baton.
Klaus Mäkelä is such a great conductor
Lucky for Mr Makela, who manages to make the first movement boring with his inertial tempi that are more dirge than march, this orchestra knows this work under several conductors. The most interesting thing about this performance is the marked contrast between Mr Makela’s podium intensity and the absence of any intensity coming from this finest European orchestra. Mr van Rijen is always awesome.
Fully agree. The first movement is very affected and bizarre. Excessively long pauses all over the place. It seems like he's trying to be different just to be different, but I don't see any musical point to it. It completely saps any momentum and must drive the orchestra crazy. And the string tremolos are often too loud. And he seems to have an odd preference for portamentos, which sometimes I like but it seems like an affectation. I will give him credit for the last movement though. I thought that was quite lovely. I have a feeling he likes strings better than percussion:)
God, so true 😂 He shouldn't even have the Concertgebow...
@@tonyxie7283 the players voted for him to lead as music director too bad

the orchestra brilliantly plays in spite of the self-absorbed, indulgent, pedantic, cookie-cut conductor, another music industry hype job
Here with a better orchestra...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boo
Dry to the point of mono sound. Nice.y played, poorly recorded, alas.
he's a chils---they're going for cute boys and girls to conduct orchestras-- pitiful
He's fine if you don't like to hear any percussion. Mahler 3 has elaborate percussion parts - especially in the first movement - and Makela seems to dampen them more than just a bit. The percussion are almost non-existent in the "southern storm" climactic passage of the first movement's development section. What gives?!? That never happened under Haitink or Chailly.
The sound here isn't that great--it's dynamically compressed. And who knows how much the microphone placement affects the orchestral balances, including the percussion?
Maybe, but you can see in the 5th movement how lightly the tuned bells and glockenspiels are being played. So that's clearly deliberate. Also, all the timpani rolls in the finale seem really to be cut short and underplayed. I just don't think Makela really wants to hear the percussion. @@poturbg8698
I think it's rather due to the acustics of the concert hall and the recording. In other performances here on youtube, Mäkeläs interpretations are well balanced including more percussion, harps etc :)
The best of Mahler's Symphony No. 3 is the performance by Riccardo chailly, who conducted the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. Then, if you compare Riccardo chailly's and Mekela's conducting, Mekela really made the Royal Concertgebouw
third-rate.
???? are we even watching the same video? this young conductor is great, the concertgebouw wouldn't choose him for no reason.
The main reason is marketability, because he is the new darling of UMG. But on musical merrits he has no business conducting these big players among the orchestras. Yet. Give him 10 to 15 years and then he may be ready.@@LuiDeca
Haha! Chailly is terrible too!
Klaus Makela: the new pretender like Dudamel. Such a clowns, Actually this orchestra no needs a conductor. I
Let’s not exaggerate. Yes, this Mahler is a bit mechanical, I don’t really « hear » the composer’s view of the world, and the acoustics is not the best, but that’s not the worst 3 I have heard.
I think Makela is too young to understand Mahler. It is not about music but about life. His conducting is too much and has no point. For detail, he ruined the flow of big picture. I can see the members of orchestra are losing their concentration. Makela could be popular but he should have been trained more before he took the podium of RCO.
Hes like one of those "professional" chinese pianist. They dont understand the piece, they just understand that it's music.
MAYBE SOME OF THEM HAVE ADHD AND NEED TO GO BACK TO KINDERGARTEN
Hm ..this interpretation is ok .. nothing so special especially if you compare with great old ones ..for example Sir John Barbirolli or horenstein ..this performance is dull in comparison ..how easily we call performers genius and extraordinary ?
