Superb! Perhaps the best orchestra in Spain and a new star conductor.

El mejor canal de YouTube de ninguna orquesta es este.. y el mejor ingeniero de sonido y editor que he visto ( y sigo muchas orquestas vía YouTube)

One of the best renditions of Brahms' great masterpiece that I've ever come across, IMHO surpassing Bernstein's interpretation and matching and perhaps in some respects even surpassing Karajan's own excellent version with the Berlin Phil (I find Karajan's conducting sometimes leads to a somewhat "monotone" orchestral sound which misses subtleties in the orchestral colouring).
Bravo González-Monjas and the Orquesta Sinfónica de Galicia!

Pretty good. It held together well and I love the acoustics of this hall.

I've been out of circulation for several years, so was delighted to find this performance, as I've always had a great regard for the orchestra. But there appears to have been many changes (and conductor, sadly).
If not correctly handled, Brahms' orchestrations can sometimes become a little turgid. Not so here. The string sections appear to be smaller than is often seen (I hope this is no reflection of a permanent reduction). Whatever the reason, and be my observations right or wrong, one thing is definite - this performance displays a model of clarity, contributing to a very rewarding outcome.. I may not particularly like this conductor's wildly whirling, yet clearly Wunderbar style, but this last adjective?, because he gets Wundebar results. Thank you all.

Lots of new faces in the orchestra. Does anyone know what happened to my admired oboist Casey Hill? I haven't seen him on stage for a long time. I do hope he's well and active.

[petros]

Who's playing the 2nd trombone? I think I saw the young lady playing for the Verbier orchestra a few years ago. I beleive is the same. No mention of her when I look at the orchestra roster unless she was invited to assist Jon. Awesome sound!!

[martz]

Talvez a sinfonia mais dramática da História da Música. Bem dirigida e executada, como é apanágio da Orquestra Sinfónica da Galiza (Martz Inura)

[mariaisabelsolis]

Se me ocurre en ese momento pensar en el Sr. GUSTAVO DUDAMEL. ¿ Quien le ha habrá dicho que tiene capacidad para dirigir a Brahms.? En fin es el momento de disfrutar de esta joya y que otros aprendan

El. Sueño. De mi. Vida...queda. Poco

Not the orchestra's best recording, not the clearest sound, not the best balances and dynamics. Hasty all along from the first note to the last. A bit of a letdown.
