1:23 this sequence is some of the most genius post wagnerian harmony ive ever heard. Such a huge leap from brightness too darknes through that cromatisism. What a thrilling yet somber moment.

[zottek]

Shouting match, outcome undecided. The ladies were very loud, but so were the men. The Orchestra turned out a significant volume too. In the end, even the audience gave a loud applause.

[OlavoLuisatto]

Congratulations Sir Simon Rattle and Berliner Philharmoniker. Wonderful. BRZ/São Paulo State.

I imagine that after this, he made himself aware that romantic style complexity was not the way anymore, and became more abstract and novel. Anyway, he was very able with this kind of composition. It's really beautiful.

[ilyassbouioitlan]

Gloriously majestic & utterly beautiful!

[TheStockwell]

Well, I know what we'll be watching after dinner, tonight! The Digital Concert Hall has an even longer series of clips from this concert. This is going to be thrilling.

The last time I heard this work performed, it was in San Francisco under Edo de Waart. The speaker who read the penultimate poem was Hans Hotter!

[bondo]

Wishing I could sing.
Thanks for this

Die Blechbläser mit Gábor Tarkövi einfach magisch!

[jaeh]

Wow, there must have been more performers than audience members

[jeffreymiller]

Watch Ozawa and Boston SO with Jessye Norman, Tatiana Troyanos, and James McCracken in his greatest ever performance. The chorus is spectacular and not a piece of sheet music to be seen. They were totally MEMORIZED.

[josef]

Compared to this everything looks like chamber music.

[PosauneundPapier]

After all of that time, Schönberg finally uses the alto trombone after its near-complete absence in a 'modern' composition

[andyadler]

Pretty cruel to end this excerpt before the astonishing climax.

[joesoy]

This reminds me of Mass Of Life by Delius.

[sutherndudetx]

Oh... wow...!!!
Which movement is this?

[lavanderlies]
