This symphony is highly underrated. The fourth movement is easily in the top 15 symphony finales of all time.
Jordan Wartell This is my favorite dvorak symphony and also the only one I played so far.
But I don‘t like the ending so much, more precisely the last few lines.
It‘s seems like he had a hard time thinking how to end this piece, so he just made it loud and impressive.
@@leoalex2001 The ending of the first movement of the cello concerto has the same problem
Anybody ever notice how strong Dvorak’s symphonic endings are? Even if there pianissimi (like in the 9th)! The Cello Concerto is another good example. I heard this symphony the first time conducted by Haitenck in Vienna in 1973 and it blew me away. And has, when played well like here, ever since.
@@leoalex2001 Loud and impressive works.
I think Dvorak’s endings tend to be weak - chaotic and/or unsettled. His beginnings, on the other hand, are magnificent. The 8th is no exception: :32 to 2:05 is some of the most magical music ever composed.
I second the sound quality of this recording. Either they have a perfectly designed music hall or a highly skilled recording engineer - the orchestra simply sounds unbelievably rich on CZcams.
All the recordings of this orchestra in the You Tube are great, especially if you hear through a good pair of headphones (and preferably using a good DAC to replace the one in your computer which probably is not one of the best). However I know people that despise the sound just because it is in MP3 and only hear music through high resolution files. They don't know what they are missing.
It’s not either/or. You need both to get this sort of quality. If you have the world’s best acoustics and a dud for a sound engineer, or vice versa, you’ll get rubbish.
the glorious quality of state-funded media
I guess because it's the Frankfurt Radio Symphony they probably do have special acoustics in the hall
They have the best sound on CZcams
This symphony helps me handle my depression... 10 years ago we also played this master piece and it was actually my last concert ever.... I miss the orchestra so much ..
This wonderful interpretation by a wonderful conductor is indeed powerful against depression. You might also enjoy the joyous beauty of Beethoven's 7th conducted by Andres Orozco-Estrada. It works for me. Much empathy coming your way.
❤️
same. I'd give anything to play this again in my college orchestra.
Haha, I've just played this at my last concert yesterday!
@@subzee5623 We just played it in May for our last concert 🤣 ... I got to play the flute solo
Never have i seen a minimalistic approach to conducting as Honeck. He trusts that the orchestra knows what they are doing, and he is simply providing cues to keep them in time. as always, FRSO never disappoints. this rendition of Dvorak's 8th is nothing short of sublime.
A lot of conductor's work is done during the rehearsal as well, so when the conductor trust the orchestra to execute those things keeping the orchestra in time is pretty much almost enough for an outstanding performance
I play ig now in my orchestra thanks for showing.
First Flutist is soooooo amazing!
She is Clara Andrada de Calle and she is in many of this orchestra’s performances. Incredible and expressive flutist
As a flutist myself I was in awe of her performance. Beautiful and animated.
Not bad. This Dvorak guy has talent. I'm sure he will become famous if he stays focused and continues to write such magnificent pieces.
Hey, Charlie, Is that your tongue firmly implanted in your cheek?? I enjoyed your comment, though.
Charles Dickens :D
You stick with it too. You got talent kid. Somebody's bound to notice.
Charles Dick
If this Dvorak guy is going to write better music then this it has to be in a brand New World. As for you Charlie, I really do have Great Expectations.
The greatest finale in the history of symphonic music.
The flutist shines so well in the 4th movement. God bless her soul! Also, impeccable sound engineering. Pretty sure this is even better than being in the concert hall!
Her name is Clara Andrada de la Calle. She's is so incredibly good that many works she plays in sound at times like concertos for flute and orchestra.
@@drgustavbakter4735 thanks for pointing that out. I've been listening to a number of other hr-Sinfonieorchester recordings on youtube and she's indeed a superstar in them as well!
she's also in the Chamber Orchestra of Europe; CAdlC is a star. She's also a very expressive player, which is why you noticed.
@@frankstein9982 "Expressive" is the understatement of the year. There are always one or two like that in every orchestra; annoyingly distracting.
The woodwind are all swaying. I’d like a pint or two of what they’re drinking please barman.
Editor-san's favourite piece!!
Thanks I'm not the only one watching this after my dose of TwoSet
X2
My favorite Dvorak to play.
@Ribhav Gupta As soon as the third movement started I SWEAR I heard Brett and Eddy screaming.
@@hello-fx7wn "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
This is what it looks like to completely trust a conductor's interpretation and not fight their vision. Honeck is one of the greatest conductors alive today, without question, and this is a compliment to the Frankfurt players' willingness to try "different" phrasing that actually is the best way to phrase. Everything is perfection in this performance. Everything.
starwarsjunkie7777 .
there is no such thing as a best way to phrase something fella
@@chasenotleya.t.c.l6837 Yes there is a most effective way to phrase something, and this is it!
@@paulsomers6048 no there isn't!
Needlessly idiosyncratic, odd for the sake of being odd, and conducting so technically clueless that the orchestra (you may note) mostly refuses to look at him -- because, if they do, there's no way they can play together.
CZcamsで、世界中のｵｹを見れるなんて、ひと昔前は、考えられなかった、CDだけだった😱今は、こんな田舎でも見れる、幸せです🙇

Thank you !
Jakub Strużyński j
Thank You very much.
Played the fourth movement in high school orchestra. Couldn’t remember the title except Dvorak 8th symphony. Finally found it. Thank you for the time stamps
Fantastic !! amazing flutist!
Yes but how can she play while moving so much.....
@@enilereb0183 years of practice. Along the years you know how to play an instrument with whatever movements. Close your eyes, it's the same music if she would have stayed like a rock.
Until today, all I knew of Dvorak was the Ninth. What a revelation this was! I had to immediately repeat. I love it! Bravo, bravo, Dvorak, Manfred Honeck and FRS!
Well, David, I would say it was worth the Waite!
You should also listen to the 7th, imo even better than his two last symphonies :)
@@Failentin It's different, not necessarily better. I would have to have to choose between them. All three are stunning masterpieces, among the very best of the symphonic repertoire.
Most people like his 9th Symphony because most people are familiar with American folk music incorporated in it, but expressed in another form. But it is not original like this one. I personally prefer the 8th much, much better.
His best symphonies are 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9. The first 4 were experimental, after which he found his own style. Don't forget to check out his 3 concertos for cello, violin and piano, and of course his 16 Slavonic dances. Legends, and Serenade for strings. The list is endless, and he only lived for 63 years!
The finale of the symphony is so joyous, yet it is as equally filled with an intense, almost angry momentum, that seems to beg to be resolved. I think that 31:49 to 33:23 has to be one of my favorite moments in all of Dvorak's music.
+ThaSchwab 37:56
+ThaSchwab I couldn't agree more with you. It always lifts my spirit.
yes, magnificent. an anxiousness and restlessness...
When I have played this symphony, I always wait for that part. It's so peasant-y.
Interesting what music brings to mind. To my knowledge, there's no archeological support for the notion that the Mongols reached Bohemia, Moravia or another of the Czech lands. Nor do I know if Dvořák were interested in Russian 'medieval' history. I think not. Leaving aside music for opera or ballet ("Prince Igor" and "The Rite of Spring" come to mind), is there other symphonic music -- Czech, Russian, or by a composer of another nationality -- that conjures up such images for you? Are the images color or b&w? Does music in general bring to mind images of any sort?
The most underrated symphony of all symphonies in my opinion
I agree. This is a magnificent symphony, and magnificently performed.
haha no, literally no one even knows symphonies like haydn #33, beethoven 1, tchaikovsky 2, dvorak 5, etc..
Absolutely. I couldn't agree more.
Took a course on the history of the symphony. Dvorak essentially ignored. What a crock. No. 8 is among my top 5 favorite of ALL Symphonies. Antonin, you genius, you are NOT forgotten among all who truly love classical music. It occurs to me that it is also sadly overlooked due to the famous familiarity of the New World, great, of course, in it's own right. Oh, and 28:32, one of, if not, the greatest of all cello section writings ever conceived. Only Brahms can compete.
Dvorak is one of all time favorite composers. Everything from his Symphonies and Quartets to Concertos and Dances are fantastic! I particularly love his American Quartet and his Serenade for Strings. Truly a pity that your course didn’t mention him.
The cello introduction of this piece is one of my favorite orchestral motifs!
Such a wonderful performance! So sad to see the many empty chairs... Would have loved to be there!
What was the weather? It looked to me to be a sell-out with no-shows. And crummy weather can have quite an affect on attendance.
Right with you!!
@@Hometruths29 That is absolute nonsense. The main reason is a dying audience, like literally. Most people attending concerts are 60+ and the line gets older and older. Just see how few young people are sitting there. And (speaking for myself) I am in my twenties and there is nearly noone interested in classical music. Ethnicity doesn't really play a major role here.
@@thner773 spread around *twoset violin* and things will change
@@Hometruths29 it's nothing to do with intelligence,
it's the pathetic lack of musical education at school
in favour of the MINT subjects...
and poor school funding in general.
Your dreams of an ethnonationalist Cockaigne
will never come true again - and rightly so !
去年の春から一年くらい毎日きいてます。
去年の秋、自分のオケの定期演奏会でこの曲をやりました。
今はコロナの影響で自粛になり、演奏会はもちろん何もできませんが、CZcamsでこのような素晴らしいプロの演奏をきけることが今の唯一の生きがい&幸せです。
This is by far the best performance of this wonderful symphony that I've ever seen on CZcams :)
it's so good i know
I'm right there with you on that-I never get tired and watching this one. Love the conductor, and the players are amazing.
Frankfurt Radio delivers ---consistently .
I come back to this again and again!
Szell Cleveland
What I would give to be there.....the best version of Dvorak 8 I've found online so far. That principal flutist is amazing
This symphony is something that is really beyond my thinking. I can't imagine my life without this sparkling song to life, an absolutely infectious work full of bliss. Because of works like this one is that Dvorák belongs to the summit of stunning composers. I love this symphony, and I'll love it forever!
me too
And me!
Also me
U r not alone 🙃
My favorite Symphony . . . It plays in my head every day . . .
23:43 Listening to this makes me feel like everything in life is just fine!
31:30 this is the fist time I hear that the strings playing their part col legno and it is simply great.
Eines der größten Meisterwerke!
Dvorak - einer der Größten!
Maestro Honeck is a great conductor!
There is no question about that in my book. I wish the S.F. Symphony could get him as Tilson Thomas's successor.
Indisputably! One of the greatest alive today.
He is perfect indeed.
Manfred Honeck ist einfach ein unheimlich genialer Dirigent! Ich kenne keine bessere Aufnahme dieser wunderbaren Sinfonie. Das Orchester spielt ausnahmslos ausgezeichnet!
Is it just me or does this wonderful conductor give off a Carlos Kleiber vibe? Amazing Interpretation and orchestra to perform it!
DeYante McClay Not just you! Me too...SMILE
DeYante McClay Not just you! Me too...SMILE
DeYante McClay He knew Keiber very well, maybe he was his pupil, I'm not sure.
He talks about Kleiber's conducting in very detail in one of Kleiber's documentary!
+DeYante McClay yes he does give a Kleiber vibe and even looks a bit like him
This is definitely one of the musical pieces of all time.
Truly
One of the greatest musical pieces of all time
This Symphony has everything. Eclipses his 9th IMO. A masterpiece
And what about the Seventh, IMHO a masterpiece? The 8th and 9th are not shabby!
Joe, I agree with you that the 8th is his best. I also agree with Murray that the 7th is better than the 9th. (but not better than the 8th). I even like his 6th better than the 9th. The 9th is overrated, probably because it was written when Dvorak was in America. However, he did write some wonderful pieces while he was here; for example, his Cello Concerto and several other string ensemble pieces.
@@steveschwieterman9109 A lot of people seem to think his 9th is overrated, I think it's just a tad over-played. I'll have to give his first 6 symphonies a proper listen as I know very little about them. His Serenade for Strings is one of my favourites of the whole genre.
@@JoeMullanMusic I agree with you that his Serenade for Strings is a wonderful piece. I enjoy playing that one, too.
7th, 8th, 9th. They are all masterpieces
One of the greatest conductors of our time
I agree with you, Matteo, wholeheartedly. A most worthy successor of Carlos Kleiber, but with a wider repertoire.
This is more than excellent. The enthusiasm of the orchestra always helps. These people are bone fide classical musicians with emotions.
This piece is fantastically fun to perform!
It is always such a joy to watch a conductor and the musicians enjoy creating such beauty together. And the TOGETHER is such an important part of the beauty of this music.
Dvorak 8 was the work that really turned me on to classical music over 50 years ago. I still adore it and have numerous recordings. I've always rated the 1968(?) recording by the LSO under Istvan Kertesz as my favourite but musically this is almost as good with the advantage of modern sound quality, Thanks hr-Sinfonieorchester and CZcams for making it available.
With my 💘 of Dvorak's hudba, Czechs tell me I am honorary 🇨🇿!
This is simply the best interpretation of any work of Dvorak I have ever heard. Fantastic!
Wonderfull performance by hr-Sinfonieorchester and Maestro Manfred Honeck. Remind of the Great Carlos Kleiber !
Shame that Dvořák isn't alive here to see this marvelous scene... wonderful performance...
I think he's been "Upstairs" watching this for quite a while! Ill bet he loves it!
Heard this in concert today. I was absolutely blown away by the wonderful "pleasurable excitement!" (that's what the conductor called the fast change of melodic themes)
I so think that this symphony is up there with Beethoven's 5th symphony, Tchaikovsky's 1st piano concerto, Rachmaninoff's 1st piano concerto, Grieg's 1st (and only) piano concerto, Haydn's trumpet concertos and Britten's a young person's guide to the orchestra! Purely amazing.
I played the symphony in 8th grade with my youth orchestra and I had so much fun playing the first and fourth movement. Dvorak will always be one of my favorites. I love the way it is conducted in the video. Great piece overall, and honestly one of my favorites.
I’ve played one of Dvorak’s symphonies in 8th grade too, his 9th. And fast forward to 11th grade, I am now playing his 8th. Maybe 3 years later I’ll play his 7th, which is a fantastic piece as well😏
I actually AM in 8th grade now, and my youth orchestra will be performing this! Can’t wait
I got the Ormandy version of this great Symphony as my first album
in 1953--by mistake!
I was looking for the New World Symphony
(then called the 5th Symphony, now the 9th)
but forgot the number and got the 4th (now the 8th).
I've never regretted the mistake,
and after 60 years of hearing many performances,
knowing every note,
I'm still overwhelmed by this masterpiece.
xØx
jd
Sure and pure joy to the ear and the body
Love how the lady behind the director, smiles after the great resolution at 7:46 and then she looks right away to the english horn waiting for the solo. She's really enjoying this masterpice!
Eine der besten Sinfonien auf der Welt. Dvorak‘s 8. ist einmalig. Wunderbar!
Wow. The strings really shine in this performance. It is probably not as popular as nr. 9, but my personal favorite is nr. 8! It has so many memorable melodies of joy and andurance of spirit!
I know them all. And a little funny story. Long, long ago, when I was recording music on MC, I would sometimes forget to write down the composer and work. Small step to the 3rd movement of his 3rd symphony. At the time I suspected it to be Dvorak,and indeed, when I bought the entire CD-box, I knew I was right. Another one, The Wood Dove, was not recognized by me, until I heard it on the radio. I parked my car, listened to the end and the announcer said so.
31:05 Love this part, just exciting, happy, and excellently written and played.
Immenso, immortale ANTONIN DVORAK (1841-1904). Meravigliosa sinfonia, finale straordinario ed eccellente esecuzione.
Très belle interprétation de cette magnifique symphonie !!!! Merci !!!
冒頭のチェロに惚れて聴き始めた曲です。その後ろでやってるコンバスのピッチカートも本当に素敵で…
交響曲で初めて全楽章聴いた曲で、今では一番好きな交響曲です。一度でいいから生で聴きたいし弾いてみたい…！
How lucky the residents of Frankfurt are to have an orchestra of this calibre. I hope they all come to London soon - they would be mightily welcome.
This conductor reminds me of the conductor I had in youth orchestra. He liked to play around with interpretation like that and it made the piece just blossom. That last movement was especially showstopping.
너무 아름답네요~ 호른과 플룻 소리는 아늑하고 목가적인 풍경을 떠오르게 하네요
I feel like always watching a movie or a theatrical play whenever I hear Dvořák's symphonies.
Vielen Dank an das Orchester für diese schöne Interpretation. Grüsse aus Spanien.
Every time I watch this video, I laugh out loud at the car horn at 5:49.
Lol damnit, never can that be unheard.
Those are Clarinets playing written parts in thirds.
HahahahahahHH
Is that meant to sound like that?
French horns go skkkkrrrrrrrt
Manfred Honeck comes into his own with this splendid orchestra.
A very outstanding performance. Everyone plays exceptionally well, and I’m particularly impressed with the principal flute player. She is a stunningly, beautiful woman, who plays like an angel. Such a blessing, the Lord gave her.
So hyped to discover this symphony, Dvorak's writing style is so melodic and colourful, these simphonies are extremely pleasant to listen to.
Yes that was exactly my thought. I love melodic composers.
This happy symphony was a present on my engagement many years ago. Well, my wife-to-be suggested she buy me a record (a 12 inch vinyl disc in those days) and I suggested Dvorak's 8th because of its joyful mood. I still think of that occasion whenever I hear this wonderful work, full of allusions to the countryside and wildlife. An excellent performance, by the way!
Thank you for sharing the magnificent feelings engendered by this amazing symphony.
Yes, I agree. I always feel as though I taking a trip through the Bohemian woods.
If the New World Symphony is full of anxiety and homesickness, this Old World Symphony is full of joy and gladness. Every movement has moments in them that simply make you glad that you are alive.
Vidunderlig smuk, finurlig samt romantisk, første gang jeg hørte Antonin dvorak, var jeg 17 år og lige siden har jeg holdt af hans musik, nu er jeg 81 år og min ældste søn hedder Antonin
One of the most enjoyable 2nd clarinet parts I've ever played! I really appreciate the way he wrote for 2 clarinets!
Danke! Große Symphonie! Großes Orchester!
Dvorak the soul of czech culture. My defenite favorite country in Europe. Visiting Prague is like coming home. Taking a trip around in the bohemian landscape outside Prague. You can feel what created Dvorak and Smetanas emotions for their country, people and culture. Being a norwegian we have the same dejavu for Edward Griegs music. The 3.rd movement of this symphony is pinpointing the czech atmosphere.
Stupenda sinfonia di un grande compositore geniale come Antonin Dvorak (1841-1904). Il finale poi è straordinario e coinvolgente in modo particolare. Che melodie e finezza di orchestrazione, ottima anche l'interpretazione.
The third movement is magnificent
30:48 that flute solo kills me everytime I listen being played by her. 💙
She's amazing throughout ❤️

Definitely the best interpretation of this symphony, thanks to hr a Honeck who is master on Czech romanticism. Final minute is perfect, fast and sharp.
bravo~!! dvorak ~one of the greatest composer in history....
What a great performance! Dvorak's ingenuity is unbelievable!
Spectacular performance
The best I have ever heard of Dvorak eighth!!
Playing this in my orchestra and it sounds great! Thank you for this masterpiece DVORAK
Actually one of the best versions you can find on CZcams.
Great Job, Mr. Honeck !
I agree completely. How wonderful it is to hear these excellent renditions of these excellent symphonies! And this is indeed one of the very best.
This is a wonderful orchestra. What a trumpet section! I have heard their Mahler 5, and the gentleman just nails the trumpet part!
I submit it now: the most masterfully composed piece of music ever. Ever.
Wirklich groß! Die beste Achte, die ich kenne!
I was in 9th grade, and this was the first symphonic piece I ever played. Dvorak hooked me for life. The genius of this conductor’s interpretation of Dvorak’s 8th Symphony, and the spectacular attention to detail in the engineering of the recording make this spectacular.👌
I absolutely adore this symphony! And this is the most amazing rendition! Thank you so much for posting!
Wunderschön!!! Hab Sie schon 10 mal angehört.
When I first heard this music almost 40 years ago, as I listened to the way in which the last moment slowly fades away, after beginning with such a strong opening, I yearned for it to spring back to life. It cannot end on this note, I thought, everything about this symphony so far has been optimistic, always starting somber but ending triumphantly. And now it is ending like this. With a whimper. And then, when all seemed lost, that wonderful, energetic bravura ending! What a way to round off this glorious work. And this performance really brings out the drama and emotion.
31:30 I have never heard this part played so well. What is that rattling? The violin bows? Absolutely brilliant. Goosebumps!
it’s called col legno, a tecnique, yep you let “bounce” the bow but with control and with the wood part of it, (legno in italian is wood)
Don’t mind me but as a violist, I have to let you know that the violas play that part :D
My favorite performance of a lifetime favorite symphony. Thank you, everyone!
Egyszerűen csodálatos! Nagyon jó🥰❤️❤️❤️
I love this symphony so much. Should I be pressed at gunpoint to name one favorite symphony it could well be this one. But thank heavens one doesn't need to make such choices. I also love this channel dearly, it's one of the very best concert channels on YT, if not the best. Consistently excellent complete recordings, great music making, great video work, everything is just perfect. This one is another marvelous performance, and Honeck may well become one of my favorite conductors. Many thanks !
When I first discovered this orchestra, I was simply looking for a channel that had full-length concert recordings. Upon watching a few of their performances, it dawned on me that this orchestra has that and so much more. I concur very strongly with you.
CB: Funny you should mention being pressed at gunpoint to name your fave symphony, because that's EXACTLY what happened to me in a NY subway eleven years ago. Evidently displeased a surprisingly cultured gunman when I blurted out, "Uh... uh... Saint Saens' "Symphony With Organ!" (I WAS pretty rattled, after all), to which he replied, "What? No Beethoven?! No Brahms?!" discharged his weapon, and delivered a nasty flesh wound!
Velmi kvalitní a krásná hudba
Wonderful playing of a wonderful symphony. Thanks for sharing it.
Wonderful! My absolute favorite piece of music and I haven't heard it performed any better than this. Thank you for posting
Impressionante! Belíssima interpretação. Brave!
Thank God this was recorded. Absolutely stupendous, a genuine expression of the full range of emotion. Phenomenal execution. And without saying, Dvoraks profound ability to write such a piece. Bravo!
I agree! Thank God we have this recording with this conductor, these musicians, and this wonderful composer.
Fascinating. I've heard almost every recording of this piece and never has another conductor gone from pianissimo to fortissimo in the 4 or so measures before the breathtaking chromatic scale in the first movement.
Veramente fantastica.... musica sublime!!!!
Excellent, perfect, superb.... What the other words I can express? The BEST performance and conducting!
What impressed me most about this interpretation is Honeck's extreme contrasts in tempi between the meditative and energetic portions of the symphony. He captures the Bohemian fervor in the latter, but loses some of that dramatic urgency in the former. His enthusiasm for the work is evident however; he is very interesting to watch while conducting, and the orchestra responds marvelously, especially the horns and flute, so important in this work. This is a fine performance, and unlike any I've heard before, but none can equal that of Vaclav Talich and the Czech Philharmonic, whose Artia (Supraphon?) LP is a treasure in my collection.
Nothing beats a bit of variety, though. Glad to see an individual take.
Over a million views and 8.5 likes--what a wonderful way to share this wonderful symphony!
And can you just image the 271 people that thumbed this down ??? Honestly, not one of them is even worth the precious gift of music.
It is so evident that the conductor is feeling the music, especially in the 3rd movement! Great performance!
The residents of Frankfurt are grossly spoiled by having this wonderful orchestra.
Since I don't want to scroll all the way down and find my comments I guess I'll just do them again. This Symphony stands out in a way like no other romantic Symphony does. The incredible gorgeous Rich bounteous Beauty found within this along with the creative fun and joyful sounds are like no other. If Beethoven had lived to hear this he would have rejoiced. It makes me wish I could have known Dvorak personally. To have him as my best friend would have been a wonderful experience. I myself am a composer arranger and performer and who knows what I could have done with this kind of influence in my life
I love this performance of this wonderful symphony!
The quality is so oustandingly good, that I totally forgot to be not sitting there by myself - not bothering about lockdown measures and being hindered of enjoying such magical evenings. This is my cure! Thank you so much!
Wow...incredible! Fantastic performance.
