Not sure if anyone has ever made mention of this, but thank you for starting the video at the beginning of the actual performance, and not 10 minutes prior!
@@itdepends604 I sometimes read down a few comments, as often someone also posts the times each movement begins, but for obvious reasons it is preferable they just start at the beginning of the actual performance.
I stand up with the audience to applaud this magnificent performance. Thank you to the hr-Sinfonieorchester Frankfurt, thank you to Karina Canellakis! Congratulations!
What a great performance! What a thrilling ending! What superb sound quality! I've heard many recordings of the CfO, and this could be my favorite. Many thanks to the orchestra, the conductor, and the sound engineers for bringing us this!
This Consert for Orchestra was written in 1943, only two years before Bartoks death in leukemia. I am so grateful for hearing it in this superb version, with Karina Canellakis and hr-Sinfonieorchestra. Especially as I never heard it before. So this is new for me. Thank you!
Yes, exactly like this. Majestic beauty. Wonderful sensitivity and understanding of this piece. As a Hungarian musician I am very happy to hear this perform. As Meredith Beatty said, beautiful solo parts, all section, strings, woodwinds, brass, drums were awesome, highly concentrated approach, so much of richness of this opus could appear finally, truly remarkable, best what I've ever heard, conductor lady, big bravo too!
Diese junge Dirigentin überträgt das Temperament Béla Bartóks mit vollem Körpereinsatz via Taktstock auf das gesamte Orchester: Eine beachtliche Leistung! Bravissimo!
Une remarquable cheffe d'orchestre, dont on entendra reparler ! Et qui ne s'en laisse compter ni par une partition exigeante, ni par un effectif orchestral important. Quelle précision dans sa battue et quelle énergie dans sa direction ! A suivre absolument !
Wunderschöne und spannende Aufführung dieses einzigartig konstruierten doch perfekt komponierten Konzerts mit gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Die Virtuosität aller Einzelspieler ist echt eindrucksvoll. Die intelligente und geniale Dirigentin leitet das hoch funktionelle Orchster in verschiedenen Tempi und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Wundervoll und atemberaubend zugleich!
This consert consists of different kinds of feelings. What a difference for example between the second movement at 10:30 and the third Elegia at 16:44. But all with a tragic undertone, Bartok at this time 1943 was a refugee in a foreign country, and that sets a mark in this wonderful music.
I have to say it: Karina Canellakis is a gift to the classical music, to the classical world. Her entrance on the podium has made this world a little bit less manly. Thank you for that, Karina!
When I have listened to this music a couple of times I have thoughts about how his last years in US was. He was a refugee, the World War 2 was going on, and he was sick. Perhaps this is why he returns to a more classical style in his composing, as some sort of returning to his roots? If you know his destiny you can hear it in this music. The bells of doom. Wonderful music for sure, but with of hint of despair. Or is it just me thinking this way?
What a coincidence! I was just thinking about this concert a second before opening TH-cam and having it recommended to me! It was a wonderful performance but I have listened to a different interpretation so often, that I couldn’t enjoy this one as much as I would have liked to. Nevertheless divine and I wish I could have been in Frankfurt to watch it live.
Watching Karina is a pure joy (or ecstasy?) for me. Music is bonus. Or, is it the other way around? I used to be (and, still, am) a fan of Boehm, Kleiber, etc. This young conductor with pony tail overrides them all. Music is beautiful. When led by a conductor I like, it is more beautiful. I think this old grump is remotely and hopelessly in love with her.
I'm so glad the audience is covering their facia, but I only wish the wind players could also smother their wind and produce a better raspberry effect. The best bit is the dancer with the wand. (Excuse my englisch).
It is so sad for an orchestra on such a level to perform such music and for the hall to be empty. This clearly shows the end of our civilization, which we love so much…
@@Dylonely_9274 The context suggests that the writer thinks the music is great, well worth a large crowd. I certainly do!! It is a masterpiece, as are many world by Bartok.
C'est précis, certes, mais trop de précision peut être un défaut. Un gros bémol concernant le dernier mouvement. A-t-on lu "pesante" ? Il me semble trop léger dans l'ensemble ; on ne sait pas assez la présence sous-jacente du tragique.
Do you think that a "salad" is capable of playing this work by Béla Bartók so perfectly without a precise direction? You don't understand her gestures? It doesn't matter, the musicians of the hr-Sinfonieorchester interpreted them perfectly!
@@muslit If you've been playing in an orchestra for 60 years, you certainly know that the musicians are capable of playing without a conductor, and that rehearsals are unnecessary. Okay, everything I heard about Richard Wagner's conducting skills, for example, was a lie. I was just kidding! I'm sorry, but despite your 60 years of experience, I think I'm dealing with a person filled with sourness.
Always women tossing this salad, have you thought of that, muslit. Never men. I find your comment very misogynic. In my opinion Karina Canellakis is an exellent conductor, who clearly shows what she wants.
Well I think this was a very fine performance, and I think the conductor deserved all the ovations she got.
Not sure if anyone has ever made mention of this, but thank you for starting the video at the beginning of the actual performance, and not 10 minutes prior!
Hahahaha what a great comment!!!
normally someone posts the actually start time in a comment.

I don't mind spending a few seconds seeing the entry of the conductor though. You get to know the personality a bit.
Perhaps Wigmore is guilty to this, otherwise none

This performance made my day. Amazing individual and collaborative effort. And such clear and passionate conducting!
Von magischer, geheimnisvoller Schönheit. Ein wahres Meisterwerk!
Fantastic conductor and orchestra, and work from Bartok who sure knows how to make an orchestra sound great! Magnifique! Bravo!
This piece really shows what the wind section can do, and it’s marvelous, love the bassoon section. Fine conductor.
WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE BY SUCH A DISCIPLINED GROUP OF MUSICIANS & YOUNG CONDUCTOR.

That’s a woman
A fine young conductor who has feel for Bartók's sonic imagination.
Love the that final pop at the very end. Brilliantly pointed!
and so shall we fund this music for ever brilliant
Beide mit Energie und einer musikalischen Vision!
Excellent and very thrilling. Three cheers to maestro Karina Canellakis!

Eine Weltklasse-Leistung. Alle haben sich von der temperamentvollen Dirigentin 100% inspirieren lassen - und sicher von Bartok's Meisterwerk.
@@hansjuergenkohlhaas871 Is it only I that never heard this masterwork before?
I'm late to the show but two things. That last chord...wow. Secondly, I have never enjoyed this piece until now. Thank you.
That is a fabulous performance, I love it.

Wonderful music, wonderfully played. Bravos all around.
Very good conductor. I respect her. She always makes beautiful orchestral sound.

Fantasticas orquesta directora y obra.

It's very good! Ozawa and BSO 92 version in this venue is still at the top, IMO.

Tolle Dirigentin !
schön 😻
Canellakis und Mallwitz, die zwei besten Dirigentinnnen heute!
Beide mit Energie und einer musikalischen Vision!
Todo perfecto,,,,,,, pero el realizador brutal
I'm so glad the audience is covering their facia, but I only wish the wind players could also smother their wind and produce a better raspberry effect. The best bit is the dancer with the wand. (Excuse my englisch).
The first flute player is doing an excellent job with his solos. Who is it?
Nagyon jó!
I keep imagining I'm hearing references to "El Cumbanchero" in this. Probably not, though, since they were both written in 1943.
This is so true. Bartók heard the melody, probably in New York.

1st rate.... One of the very best recordings of this work. Thank you !

Well, it shows the ongoing effect of legitimate Covid 19 fear.
Well, with Germany having the highest Covid infection rates in the world it's not surprising
Such music ????

Why such an exaggerated tempo in the last movement?

33:25
You could hear a bassoonist blowing out his/her holes before the second movement, which is too rushed through, btw.
yawn
not the best conductor, notice how the crucial entrances are never quite together.
Woman conductor 😂 😂 😂
