- Daniel Barenboim conducts the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra in a true classic of the concert repertoire: Ludwig van Beethoven's Leonore Overture No. 3 is played as the prelude to a 2006 concert in the Berliner Philharmonie.
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827) wrote only one opera. The original version of 1804/05, with the programmatic title Leonore, oder Der Triumph der ehelichen Liebe (Leonore, or the Triumph of Married Love), was rewritten twice by Beethoven before the composer himself premiered it under the name Fidelio in 1814. There are four different overtures to the three versions of the opera, whereby it was the Overture No. 3, Op. 72b, which then began its own career, so to speak. It’s to this day a popular overture for concerts, usually at the beginning of the program.
In itself, Leonore Overture No. 3 is an instrumental, abridged version of the opera Fidelio, the plot and moods of which it anticipates in concise form. Fidelio is a ‘rescue opera’, in which the heroine Leonore slips into the role of the titular jailer, in order to free her beloved husband Florestan from prison. The situation seems hopeless, however, as Florestan's execution is imminent. At the last moment, a trumpet melody announces the redeeming and righteous minister, who will bring about Florestan's liberation. This trumpet melody not only forms the suspenseful climax of the opera Fidelio but is also the point at which the threads of the Leonore Overture converge (08:54) before the orchestra celebrates the triumph of freedom in a heroically serene round of melodies.
The West-Eastern Divan Orchestra is a very special ensemble: It’s comprised of young Israeli and Arab musicians, and campaigns for a peaceful solution to the Middle East conflict. The West-Eastern Divan Orchestra - founded in 1999 - holds concerts all over the world. Proceeds from this Berlin concert went to the Barenboim-Said Academy, which supports musical education programs.

The emotional power of Beethoven never ceases to amaze me...it's like a drug! How lucky I am (we are!) to be able to listen to and watch his music performed via TH-cam.
Could you imagine people 200 years ago being able to listen to performances like this by pushing a button on the screen in their hands?!?! 2 very different worlds but this beautiful music remains.
Yup. Never ceases.
Es así para mi 😂
The true power of
Beethoven 🎉😊
Listen to Beethoven’s music is like having internal . Its Incredible. I love barking Mozart, but they don’t even come close when it comes to really hitting hard at your insides. Those guys were great for chilled out music. Listening to Beethoven really gets me. Pumped up.
One of the best flute performances I have heard of this piece. Gorgeous, supple, and poetic!
Wow, wow, Beethoven on fire!! what a high powered performance! amazing to see the orchestra keep with the tempi - outstanding playing. How lucky was the audience to be there.
Guys, share this and other videos of this wonderful orchestra with every one you know.
Missionary work for a beleaguered world in need of inspiration.
Este tipo de melodías son muy provechosas para aumentar nuestra capacidad de conocimiento
The greatest of the four 🎵
I can’t even pretend to understand what this music means except that it has gravitas sewn through and through. What a treasure.
You don't need to understand it just enjoy it
Please see the opera to understand the rest of the story.
I love the word gravitas, it was a word that had a lot of meaning in the early Roman empire, so I have read
The triumph of freedom and justice over oppression and tyranny..

Excellent! Daniel Barenboim is a great artist! Thank you for this sharing!
Sehr transparente und detailreiche Interpretation auf hohem spieltechnischem Niveau. Bravo!
Ik beluister op een hoog abstractie nivo, de hunkering naar individuele vrijheid in een open liberale democratische samenleving, op een ontroerende en schitterende wijze vertolkt door zulke voortreffelijke jonge mensen met hun geniale dirigent.
Thank you, Maestro.
Un'opera meravigliosa, la migliore orchestra del mondo e UNO CHE DOVREBBE ANDARE A ZAPPARE LA TERRA COME DIRETTORE.
Excelente interpretación a una tremenda obra musical. Saludos desde Ciudad de Guatemala en Centro América.
(1) To found the WED peace orchestra has been an extremely good idea (by the friends E. Said & D. Barenboim), and has been extremely good realized over all the years until today (2) Next to Egmont, Leonore III maybe is Beethovens greates overture, and both under the most expressing+beautiful that ever have been composed; very well performed here (as every performance of this amazing orchestra)
Very reminiscent of the thoughtful passion and precision with which the late Nicholas Harnoncourt conducted. Bravo Maestro Barenboim.
Grande Daniel! ❤️👏👏👏
Всё истинно прекрасное могучим призывом уносит душу к Богу, заставляет восторженно петь : Аллилуйя! Да пребудет с вами Радость и Красота. Храни Вас Бог.
Verdaderamente estoy contigo,y es muy bonito pensamiento,”lo bello lleva el alma a Dios”.Si me permites hago mía la frase. Gracias señora ,que Dios te bendiga.

Beethoven thinking about this work, "Perhaps it will take me a few weeks to compose this and then revise and revise. Let me start now."
Barenboim, al 100 !!!

才能溢れる素晴らしい音楽家たち!!
本当に素晴らしい!!
バレンボイムの作り出す音楽は響きは厚い、なのに時になぜかサーッと流れてしまうことがあるがここではそうしたものを感じない
バレンボイムは不思議な指揮者で厚い響きを作っているハズなのに
その厚い響きがサーッと流れていく
(どう言えば良いのか)
不思議な指揮者だ
Sensacional
Nos llena de mucha cultura
SUPERB !!!
盛り上がるところが好きです
Beethoven was not human.
A wonderful performance indeed! I deeply appreciate the idea behind this superb orchestra, aimed at fostering peace & goodwill between warring factions. Wish many more such initiatives are created. So wonderful!

Playing it like they mean it. Woohoo
Einfach großartig
Una historia en una obertura los primeros acordes de violines nos recuerda la excitación de Leonora: ¿será la tumba de mi esposo? el misterio se encierra en el acompañamiento del fagot, Barenboim parece decir silencio, el clarinete al preludio orquestal de la terrible oscuridad y el sombrío silencio en que se encuentra Florestan y junto con el clarinete, se le van uniendo los fagot y las flautas traversas en esa larga espera. Barenboim cierra los ojos y vuelve abrirlos es cuando los instrumentos de viento te trasmiten su esperanza viva los violines le conducen en un sueño al ángel celestial de Leonora, encuentra calma esa alma atormentada, momento de gran tensión con el corno francés, fagot y los violoncellos, entonces compiten los instrumentos de viento y los de cuerda, “mira tu realidad” plantea el primero, el segundo se aferra a la libertad; cuando la tensión alcanza un grado máximo de los violines con los timbales, parece que vemos la imagen del macabro Pizarro intentando salirse con la suya; al son de la trompeta se anuncia la llegada del ministro inspector, los instrumentos de viento parecen encontrar la Paz en sus acordes, es un momento de sorpresa para todos, desde el conductor a la orquesta parece apoderarse de un espíritu de alegría y la flauta traversa se hace presente, es cuando la obertura se convierte en una respuesta bella y efectiva en los crescendi sinfónicos de toda la orquesta, termina por desenvolver el drama en un final, sin pausa; se reafirma la justicia y la fidelidad de Leonora, acompañando los más puros sentimientos con la flautas, fagot y un momento de silencio adicional, indica el director, porque han quedado todos envueltos en un halo de alegría, todo es dicha en la pareja la intensidad de las cuerdas no tiene vuelta atrás y los instrumentos de viento representando a los exprisioneros y el pueblo quiere celebrar; una vez más los crescendi sinfónicos de toda la orquesta y las trompas y los timbales finales, reafirman la conmoción de la multitud. Una Genialidad.
@jose caballero. Thank you thank you thank you for that explanation. I’ve always loved this piece but never understood it. Thank you again!

If only the final overture to "Fidelio" had that sweet opening theme that is the tune of Fidelio's heartbreaking aria in the second act...
For me the conductor should emphasise the trumpet blast at 16:38 which is like the last trump at the return of Christ. Even JS Bach himself would gasp at the genius of Beethoven's finale in this masterpiece!
👏👏 🌹🌹

The Leonore looks very tough to play. I"d like to see the score on this, or even just the Viola part.
10:34
JS Bach is God-the-Father of musicians, W.A. Mozart God-the-Son, and Ludwig van Beethoven God-the-Holy Spirit, and those Romantic composers afterward to whom Beethoven had opened the celestial door.
