This movement to incorporate the natural brass instruments into the Beethoven symphonies is the best idea since the invention of the wheel.

Now THAT'S Beethoven!! Yay, Frankfurt! This group has the precision and fineness of a Geneva watch. Can't say enough about the conductor. Nothing was overlooked. He brought out every texture and nuance and made sure it had the bite it's supposed to have. So many performances of Beethoven are too smoothed out. Performances like this one are very rare. This may be the best that I've heard. I hope he compiles a very long recording list, I'll listen to anything he does. I can't imagine anything better than a Beethoven cycle with him.

Beethoven 1 is vastly underrated. So many of the innovations that made Eroica the symphony it is were already at play here.

There's a lot of historically informed practice happening even with mostly modern instruments mixed in with natural horns and trumpets. Notice how the strings and the winds let their phrases rise and fall without vibrato. This orchestra can just as easily pull out a late 19th century piece true to that later era. Now that's range.

Bene che ogni tanto si vedono in orchestra i clarinetti in do. Mi fa piacere che si usano. Ottima performance dell' orchestra

[lekhine]

I was looking the same Directors as usual and I found Maestro Orozco. I can only said "Bravo". Beethoven is alive again👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍

Estrada is such a great conductor I am confident that the musicians are inspired by his expressions and movements.

[marliesrabisch]

Diese Sinfonie ist mir vertrauter, als ich vermutet habe, habe diese Musik also schon öfter gehört, ohne zu wissen, welche Sinfonie das war.

[harryhagan]

I would love knowing if the Master himself ever heard such splendid orchestral playing.
