The work comes across as more of a vast tone poem , rather than a clearly defined symphony. Full of colours and moods. It's like a journey through a landscape..
Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy great music through excellent performance.
The Scottish Fantasy by the Composer Max Bruch is a living testimony of mankind's musical ingenuity.
...And "The Land of the Mountain and the Flood" by the Scottish Composer Hamish MacCunn, is a masterfully written work with a flair for everything Scottish...
Quelle merveille d'écouter Max Bruch - il est un compositeur unique et je l'écoute tres souvent.
Bruch vaut beaucoup mieux que cette répétition sans fin de son Concerto pour violon.
Thank you very much for uploading this very beautiful music that I had never heard. It’s really a great symphony which, unfortunately, isn’t heard all that often.
I read in Bruch's bio that he isn't regarded as one of the "greats".His famous and most performeid work is his 1st violin concerto (which I love).Many of his original works weren't preserved,which is such a shame and loss for the musical world.He wias considered as ons of the last "late romanticists" who kept on composing in that vein although it wasn't as popular nearing the 1920's when composers like Prokoviev et al started ruling the roost.He stuck to his guns and actually produced quite a volume of work which sadly are not really played that much nowadays.
The violin concerto you mention was written in 1866, however. The symphony here was written in 1870, still a long, long ways away from 1920, when he died. And he wrote very little in the twentieth century, not nearly enough to warrant "stuck to his guns."
4:18 so beautiful how those two notes are repeated with the bass
Great music, love everything.
This will be true masterpiece out of German romantic school`s symphonies.
Glorious.
Amazing symphony ! The picture is excellent too
Chef d'oeuvre !!! digne héritière de la 9eme.
Some musicologists show a bit reluctant with respect to these symphonies of Bruch. I must confess that I do not share their vision. Probably there are "better" romantic symphonies. But these of Bruch seem to me sincere, well written, of a solid achitecture, with a simple and discrete but appropriate orchestration -altogh a bit thick here. I must confess that I love this symphony, - perhaps less than some others, but I love it.
Beautiful, from the beginning till the end!
So sei es , es ist der Wahnsinn von Genialität!!!!
There is nothing like Bruchs violin concert. This is great marvellous music 🎼🎶💐
But played too often.
He wrote three ! All good.
Kudos to KuhlauDilfeng2....this is outstanding...I am having a symphony' Sunday...all that I have listened to have been great.
An outstanding work.
This is very good.
Oh wow that is beautiful

I prefer Bruch to Brahms, but that is merely to say he is probably greater than his current reputation suggests.
Good piece of music. Conlon was music director for quite a few years with the opera and the symphony. So much good music that is rarely heard. Sym #1 is good as well. Next will be #3. So much so little time.
The wonderful painting ["Storm in the Mountains"] is by Albert Bierstadt -- but it depicts European landscape & mountains, and is not from among his famous USA- Hudson River School oeuvre ].... I don't recall which European landscape & mountains this one depicts, but it could well be in the Bavarian Alps......
As always for Bruch, the languaue is ultra conservative.The construction is hyper solid, the themes are noble and beautiful; the harmony is natural and efficient. To my taste, this is a very beautiful symphony but the orchestra is too saturated and makes a too large use of doublings and brass pedals. But this is common in the German orchestral language at that time. We could say the same about Franck. All in all, the three symphonies of Bruch - including this one - are masterpieces and dereve to stay in the repertoire of our concerts.
My only nitpick here is that you seem to imply (I'm sure by accident) that Franck is German, whereas he was Belgian/French (depending on your definition :P). But, yeah, I see what you're saying
@@klop4228 Not at all ! I know that Franck is Belgian/French. I just ment that his orchestra also is too saturated and makes a too large use of doublings and brass pedals. But in the specific case of Franck, this is an organist orchestral writing.
Don't forget that at this time, symphonies were ment to be heard once and to seduce at first hearing. What we now call saturation was a way to keep the audience passionate.
Beautiful... thank you for sharing all these beautiful music! By the way, could you tell me please the name of that picture and the artist? I would be very useful if you add the picture's info in video description because this and other of your uploads have such amazing paintings in them! Very good taste, mon ami! Greetings!

a wonderful Painting, a wonderful Music. this was a wonderful time.....

Reminds me of Martucci's 2nd.
Probably another Albert Bierstadt, born in German, lived mostly in U.S. This is perhaps his most overwhelming painting. Imagine this in full-size.
Yes you're correct, it's by Albert Bierstadt, called 'Storm in the Mountains', thank you.
Its at the MFA in Boston. Gorgeous painting but not as big as you probably think it is.
Bruch is always snubbed by musicologists, always too this, or not enough that. Less good than, etc. The fact that Bruch was opposed to new trends in music surely played against his reputation. Maybe the style is somehow academic, but the result is magnificent, the melodies are divine (a feature never considered in itself, though intuitive melodists are rare) and well developped. To say that there is nothing interesting in this music just proves that it had not been properly listened at. For example, from 03:20 to 04:10, this music goes "from Beethoven to Bruckner", while at the time, Bruckner was not yet renowned for his symphonies.
I actually hear little of Bruckner in this work.. sorry
@@mr-wx3lv Listen carefully at the end the passage I selected (from 03:20 to 04:10), esp. at the end. For the rest I do agree, Bruckner and Bruch are following different paths
Oh ! what a marvelous piece of Heaven on Earth. Mostly on the other side which is being directed by Colon. Magnificent piece!! By the way the painter is amazing. Please tell us about the author.!
+Julio Becerra Ibanez It's Albert Bierstadt - Storm in the mountains.
"Like" on 18 August 2016
wow
What land is this artwork depicting? 🤗
What's the name of the painting?
Very nice symphony, and also a very good performance. However, if you try and listen to the other recording available here on TH-cam, the one with Gewandhausorchester Leipzig and Kurt Masur, you might agree with me that that's even better. Masur recorded all the symphonies with this (his) orchestra plus all of Bruch's works for violin and orchestra with Salvatore Accardo as the soloist, and to me those recordings are benchmark Bruch. But of course, you don't have to agree with me!
I do agree with you!
Will listen Per Salling, however as far as the Bruch Violin Concerto's go there is no better performance than Hilary Hahn soloist with the Frankfurt Radio Orchestra conducted by Andrés Orozco-Estrada. It might be a slightly different interpretation, however the performance is totally inspirational. It's on TH-cam and is highly recommended.
Gracias por la insinuación

Рихард Вагнер мог бы поучиться у Макса Бруха!!! Теппер Михаил, Израиль.
Αγαπώ πολύ τις συμφωνίες του Μαξ Μπρουχ και δεν χορταίνω να τις ακούω. Δεν ξέρω, αλλά αποπνέουν μιαν ανεξήγητη μαγεία και μεγαλοπρέπεια. Ακούγοντας αυτή τη μουσική δεν μπορείς παρά να αισθανθείς ψυχική ανάταση. Η μελωδία ρέει τόσο αβίαστα.
Ok
Like most of his output, other than a few works, this symphony has no real faults--it is attractive and well-proportioned. Instrumentation is expert. Just nothing gripping or memorable.
Прекрасная Прелюдия для Апокалипсиса! Теппер Михаил, Израиль.
My grandfather was Tepper

Keep listening to beautiful music, Enrique. It's food for the soul and touches the heart.
Nice to listen to, but I found it rather rambling.
Jesus... this was boring
