- With "Metamorphoses" for 23 solo strings the 80-year-old Richard Strauss expressed his mourning for the shaken cultural landscape in 1945, only a few weeks before the end of World War II. It is a work of no orchestral splendor, no lavishness, but one of complete focus on the essential. Such music had never before been written by Strauss. The Finnish conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen is a guest of the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra.

Wie schrieb schon Furtwängler über Richard Strauss :...die deutsche Musik ohne Richard Strauss ist undenkbar.
Recht hat er!!! Welch ein Genie , der Richard Strauss....sehr ergreifend und doch so wunderschön diese Metamorphosen ...Fantastische Streicher:-))) danke fürs posten:-))
Die Streicher danken herzlich!
Absolutely wonderful! I learned this music listening to Norwegian Chamber Orchestras version, over and over, also a very good interpretation. So when I came to this I was well prepared. The versions differs a litttle, for example in tempo. But this is also an amazing and thrilling performance. Thank you so much!
Awesome! Thank you for joining and commenting! :)
Isn't it interesting how social distancing makes Strauss sound better? This is the finest version I've come across on TH-cam. Thank you so much!! Perhaps the musicians were moved by the tragic state of the world.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder ... ;-)

Mesmerizing. Just leaves you frozen.
So incredibly beautiful! Dankeschoen❣
You are very welcome!
Compelling performance, completely absorbing and on the cusp of the COP 26 Conference in Glasgow a moment of calm and reflection. The intensity of the musicians added significantly to the overall impact.
More like Cope 26 😂 😂 😂
I feel like I'm wandering around in the solitude that shows infinite expanse
From
A corner of Tokyo where is full of the joys and sorrows of the human world
BEAUTIFUL AND LOVELY INSPIRES, SERENITY 🌹🌹🌹 CONGRATULATIONS !!!!
This is a beautiful performance. Jeremy Eichler's new book, "Time's Echo" includes a long section on Strauss and describes how the piece came to be written with reference to Goethe's poem "Niemand wird sich selver knennen" (No one will ever know himself), its motif from the Eroica. etc. The book is absolutely superb.
Travelled to Germany and visited Wuzburg early this year. There's a model of 1945's Wuzburg city at Fortress Marienberg
museum. When I looked at it I could hear music from Metamorphosen.
Ausgezeichnet! Ich bin beeindruckt.
Vielen Dank :))
Ich finde von 22:59 bis 23:30 die Betonungen zu stark und das Tempo auch etwas zu schleppend. Tonart-"Überraschungen" wie die Rückung bei 27:02 könnten exponierter sein. Ansonsten sehr klar und nuanciert, besonders um Solo vs Ensemble geht. Das Ende ab 28:00 ist dann wirklich sehr gelungen!
Ergreifend schön.
ロシア軍によって破壊されたウクライナの都市が重なって心に響く。Richard Straussがこの曲を作曲した時と同じ悲劇が繰り返されている。人は歴史から何も学ばないのか。ただ祈るしか出来ない。
We pray with you.
Brilliant!
Thanks. Again.
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching!
ein erschütterndes Stück Musik - das eher langsame Tempo verstärkt den Charakter einer Trauermusik

19:10 That C0 isn't in the score ;)
@NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester Did you just literally unloaded the same video?
Yes, unfortunately we had to replace it for technical reasons.

A wonderful moment, thanks for sharing!
The mask is an insult to sophistication.
The mask is needed to prevent a potential virus spreading. Not more, not less.
@@NDRKlassik spare us.
The virus? We try our best.
@@NDRKlassikGet over it!
Amazing! I love the tempo.
First heard this at age 16 on the radio after having read about the piece. I knew immediately this was Metamophosen based on the written description. When the radio announcer said, "And that was Metamorphosen by Richard Strauss, I thought in triumph: "I knew it!!"
Habe es zum ersten Mal im Alter von 16 Jahren im Radio gehört, nachdem ich davon gelesen hatte. Aufgrund der schriftlichen Beschreibung wusste ich sofort, dass es sich um Metamophosen handelte. Als der Radiosprecher sagte: „Und das waren Metamorphosen von Richard Strauss“, dachte ich triumphierend: „Ich wusste es!!“
It is indeed an incomparable work. 😊
