○ Introduction to the work
Outwardly, Dmitry Shostakovich was a stroke of luck for the Soviet Russian party and state leadership. Respected and admired by audience and critics alike, the much-decorated composer also represented his homeland abroad. In the Soviet Union, his works were the focus of interest and Shostakovich assumed high offices in the leadership apparatus. In the reality of the surveillance state, however, he led a life between rebellion and conformity. After Stalin's death in March 1953, the time was ripe for a bitterly angry reckoning - Shostakovich wrote his 10th symphony. Its premiere on December 17, 1953, immediately triggered lively debates. The Soviet Composers' Union spent three (!) days discussing the work controversially. In the end, however, the 10th Symphony was recognized as one of the most important symphonic works of the present day in the Soviet Union. In the West, on the other hand, the Tenth Symphony enjoyed great popularity shortly after its publication.
The 10th Symphony reveals the wounds inflicted on Shostakovich during the Stalin era. The attempt at reconciliation is counteracted by the failure of this attempt. The notes D-S(E flat)C-B as monogram of Shostakovich's initials run through the score as leitmotif. The musicologist Bernd Feuchtner suspects that in this way the composer is not focusing on the party but on his individual identity, thus clearly rejecting the Stalinist-imposed collectivization of the individual.
The character of the first movement, already significant in its length, is characterized by a melancholy and thoughtful first theme. Later a clarinet theme and a third flute theme are added. All in all, the events revolve around the same piercing questions and complaints. The second movement is the shortest and most furious scherzo Shostako-witsch ever wrote - destructive madness reigns. Shostakovich revealed: "The second movement [...] is, roughly speaking, a musical portrait of Stalin". In the following Allegretto, the notes of the dance main theme contain the initials D-S(Es)-C-H. These also fulfill an important function in the Finale, when at the climax of an enormous movement of increase they trigger a liberating effect and in the end even triumph over the evil play.

I can't believe so few likes, there should be millions of people watching and listening to these wdr performances. The world would be a better place.

Oh my god, please convey my deepest gratitude and admiration to your art director. He is terrific, as is Semyon Bychkov and this marvelous orchestra.
BRAVO!
It's true. The art direction on these Shostakovich symphonies is off the hook!
This is really really an incredible performance. Just WOW!
Thank you! 🥰
13:01 when the cameraman wants to do the trill as well 😂
Ostiaaaaa lo acabo de ver!! 😂😂😂😂😂
So exciting and moving - what a wonderful man and what wonderful music!
Andante, it always makes me cry. That movement in particular got me through some very hard times. At times, chaotic. In the end, beautiful. 'Tis the story of my life.

Die grandios eindrücklichen Klänge der tiefen Streicher.../Kontrabässe - totale Gänsehaut. Auch bei den folgenden Passagen mit den Violinen im Vordergrund.Später dann die einfühlsame Klarinette und alle weiteren, die folgen...Gelebte, gefühlte Musik, ich bin so dankbar....Wundervoll....es braucht keine Worte in der Not...Klänge, Sound und Rhythmus beinhalten alle wichtigen Informationen, womöglich schon 5000 Jahre lang...wer weiß.
Not once during the whole Allegro did they choose to lend us a view of Bychkov. I truly admire they decided to give all visual attention to the musicians themselves for this part (although I would've been happy to see Bychkov go completely insane conducting the Allegro; he has amazing expressiveness).
I am so grateful for this video. Especially in the heart of winter, I can indulge in Shostakovich’s music, even the harrowing climax of the first movement ( especially). The performance is so impassioned, so moving. And the production, camera work, sound, and editing are sick! What a treasure.
Thank you very much!
We're glad that you like our interpretation 🤗
Wunderschöne kraftvolle Darbietung von Maestro Bychkov, der wegen seiner Leidenschaft und der Emotionen, die er weckt, einer meiner Lieblingsdirigenten ist. Ich möchte meine Bewunderung für die Dame ausdrücken, die die Piccoloflöte spielt und die ich sehr, sehr charmante finde. Vielen Danke.
13:00 hahahahaha. I really did not expect that. Good way to represent whay Shostakovich was imagine.
Wonderful , perfect performance.
Merci WDR !!! Enfin cette splendide 10ème, à la fois une des plus intéressantes de Chostakovitch, dans cette interprétation parfaitement dosée et habitée. Bravo !!!!
Avec plaisir!
Bychkov artiste!!
13:00. El director de cámaras es mi héroe.
13:00 Efecto cinemático, ahora!
Bravo!
This is the conductor I would like see as the MD after Muti. The only other option (meaning worthy of the CSO) is Zweden.
Fantasztikus zeneszerző volt!
and great conducting
Сильное произведение,очень мощный трагический посыл
12:57 -Director : OK, cinema efect, 3, 2, 1, NOW!"
Excelencia musical
Eine meiner Lieblingssinfonien überhaupt und ich mag, was ich hier höre. Bychkov traut sich, das Leiden und den Wahnsinn, die diese Sinfonie durchziehen, noch hörbarer zu machen als viele seiner Kollegen. Da bleibt mir mitunter ein Kloß im Hals zurück, sehr gute Interpretation die manchem vielleicht zu flott vorkommt, aber für mich ergibt das alles Sinn.
Гениально! И произведение отличное, и исполнение.
Thank you! 🤗
Ab Minute 11:45 ...als ob man sich im Auge eines Hurrikans befindet.... ich hab das Stück mit Bychkov in Berlin gehört....unvergesslich
Camera work is far out!!
one greater than one posted... waiting the Master come - Leningrad!
23:07
uma gde sinfonia.
Die Timestamps ("Kapitel") sind etwas verrutscht. Der zweite Satz hört bei 27:21 auf, etc.
Lieber Jestem,
du hast natürlich Recht, danke für den Hinweis!
Liebe Grüße aus Köln
The best moments 13:55
Das 2 Allegro ging perfekt los und dann... 24:19 alles kaputt!
?
The rhythm of the allegretto is totally botched.
All of the rhythms?
Please explain what you mean.
The performance is top notch, but the videography is awful. The constant shifting of focus to the instruments with musical action and rapid-fire panning makes this an utter frustration to watch!
I do not like Semyon Bychkov! He is a mediocre conductor! But the orchestra is superb indeed!
при потрясающе высоком классе оркестра, не передать немецким бюргерам характер произведений Шостаковича , пардон, играйте бетховена и брамса - тут вы в "характере"
