The third movement always breaks my heart

[accipiterignitus]

The second movement is so underrated, such simple melodic materials can provoke so much emotion after listening for a while

[junkobaker]

Now, I have to wish to go to Frankfurt to hear the symphony in person before I am too old to travel. What a find on YouTube to be able to watch the orchestra perform in such a passionate and artistic atmosphere. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to experience such a beauty, otherwise I would not have been able to. My late uncle was a flutist, and any time the flute sounds above other instruments, it is as if I am listening to him. Thank you for that reminder, however bittersweet it may be.

[imaniiiii]

The third movement is the most beautiful movement I have ever heard!

[verabolton]

Watching the conductor is just as much fun as listening to this beautiful music 🥰

Brahms 3 is a triumph for the ages. This performance proves it.

[paulescudero]

Great Conductor and Orchestra. This concert was fabulous. Brahms created one of the best symphonies.

[tomfilipiak]

Oh those wind solos. Especially the Clarinet. And the motifs in this music? Pure Brahms. Pure genius. Delicious. Excellent performance all.

In the fourth year in music school, Dr. Murphy analyzed this piece with us. We spent a whole semester with this symphony. Each movement, each bar, each theme & motive, front to back, vertically and horizontally. Listening to this is like seeing an old friend. I realize now, I am very lucky to be knowing this great piece. I like this recording the most, the conductor kept a great tempo in each movement, truly brought out all the under current and emotion. Brahms’ pain and suffers has not gone in vain, it’s all here. Thanks Brahms, thanks Clara.

Have you ever imagined that some people will live their whole life without listening to this gems of classical music ? That's so sad ...

Das ist für dich:

Im Zug der Zeit, auf Gleisen weit,
Reisen wir mit Brahms' Melodie.
Die Klänge tragen uns durch Raum und Zeit,
Landschaften ziehn vorüber
Brahms' Musik, von Ewigkeit geweiht.
In jedem Ton ein Stückchen Sehnsucht wacht,
Erinnerungen werden lebendig,
Die Hoffnung erwacht.
Die Fahrt zieht vorbei, die Stunden vergeh'n,
So reisen wir weiter,
Hoffnung im Herzen, Tränen im Gesicht,
Bis der Blick verwischt.
Die Tränen, sie trocknen, die Melodie sie bleibt,
In uns'rem Leben, für alle Zeit.

the third movement is so gorgeous! brahms is definitely at his best in slow movements

[obrodyobrody]

I love how maestro Orozco-Estrada is so humble, applauds the orchestra, before turning to receive the applause of the audience. Class act. Bravo.

[prabhudhasivanson]

A marvelous performance of this glorious Symphony

[tongued]

When something is always better than you remember, you can enjoy it forever.

The Brahms 3rd is the hardest of his 4 symphonies to interpret, IMO. Maestro Orozco-Estrada's interpretation is as close to perfection as I have ever heard. And the playing is absolutely superb. One of the very best YouTube concerts available. If you love Brahms, you must watch this video.

[raymondwilcox]

So many people praising the Frankfurt Radio Symphony and these concerts, and all well deserved. All the people involved in the presentation of the programmes on YouTube decerve to know how valuable their concept, and presentation is, in this sad Covid shut down world. Thank you from Venezuela!

[alvarito]

Ladies and gentlemen : this is the very authentic Third Symphony of Herr Johannes Brahms. Karajan, Abbado, Mutti with other magnificent orchestras also, of course, are great, very great... So HR Radio Frankfurt Sinfonie, so so perfect!!! Mr. Orozco-Estrada must have studied it on deep and rehearsed intensively with all these extraordinare musicians, all of them wonderful soloists as they have demonstrated during this pandemic. With such professionals an outstanding conductor can not fail. And here is the proof.
Danke viel, muchas gracias. Thank you very much. Grazie Mille, merci beaucoup. Спасибо!!

[anggitamadeira]

Best interpretation of the symphony. Im in tears.
