Une magnifique symphonie de ce grand compositeur allemand qu'était Robert Schumann . Interprétation brillante, pleine d'entrain par un très grand orchestre . Un grand merci à tous ces merveilleux musiciens et à leur chef, Christoph Eschenbach .
Leur grand art ne peut que nous émerveiller !
Merci beaucoup!!
Schumann's Symphony No. 3 is masterful, sublime, sensitive poetic resonance that invokes celestial melodic sound of harmony & beauty. Conductor C. Eschenbach directs Schumann composition with emotional expression.
Absolutely true.
Eschenbach, one of the best pianists in the world! I also like your unique conducting. I imagine that your rich interpretation and the prestigious tone of the NDR must be exactly what Schumann himself would have wanted!
I've never been to Germany but Schumann is the perfect gateway to this wonderful land 😃
Thank you very much, indeed, music is a wonderful gateway :)
Ein genialer Komponist, ein wirklich exzellentes Orchester und ein sehr guter Dirigent. An dieser Aufführung gefällt mir wirklich alles. Die Rheinische Sinfonie ist auch wirklich ein großartiges Werk.
3 geniale, 2 schwache Sätze, meine Meinung
IMO, the Schumann Rhenish Symphony is one of the most difficult symphonies to interpret. Maestro Eschenbach hits a home run with this magnificent performance. The orchestral playing is warm and highly imaginative. If you love Schumann or any other great composer from the 1800's, you should take a listen here. It is truly memorable.
Christoph, du bist ein großer Lehrer! Deine Interpretationen müssen unterrichtet werden. Schumann ist bestimmt sehr dankbar für solche Dirigenten und natürlich Orchester.
Audience couldn’t restrain itself after the first movement. Hard not to explode in hearty applause after such a moment as the final bars of Rhenish/1.
I keep running into Eschenbach performances that are mind-blowing. Just the other day I heard his Bruckner 2 with the Houston Symphony (a brilliant reading with a game orchestra)...this guy is more than just a pianist who conducts...this is a legitimate master at work
Listen to his Mahler 1. Best version I've ever heard!
Best conductor working today IMO.
So sehr ich auch Dirigenten wie Marek Janowski schätze. Wenn ich das höre denke ich mir, da kann er schön "pissen gehen" ... Diese Aufnahme hier ist eine deutliche Klasse über ihm. Klar es geht nicht darum, Dirigenten zwanghaft zu vergleichen. Hier zeigt sich aber einfach die schiere Klasse eines Chr. Eschenbach. Der hat es einfach drauf wie kein zweiter. Eine wirklich unglaubliche Interpretatioin, wie ich finde. Sie besticht durch große Kantabilität, rhythmisched Prägnanz und die ausgeprägte Fähigkeit, ein Orchester miteinander kommunizieren zu lassen. So entsteht ein permanenter Dialog zwischen den einzelnen Instrumentengruppen, als spräche Schumanns Stimme direkt zu uns. Mehr geht nicht!
Man muss in dem Zusammenhang aber auch das Orchester sehr loben. Hier spielen sie weltklasse und damit auf höchstem Niveau. Bravo.
Meravigliosa! Grazie! Schumann è uno dei miei preferiti assieme a Mendelssohn, Schubert, Beethoven, Mozart e, naturalmente, Brahms!
I love this performance - not a trace of HIP and all the better for it. In Schumann’s symphonies it’s go big or go home.
That said, there is some wonderfully balanced playing here. String sound is huge and bright - rightly so - and the brass are nicely inflected while also rounded and burnished. Color counts for a lot in Schumann and the beauty of tone of the NDR is really something here.
Last, there is no trace of mannerism or tightness in the phrasing. Everything flows legato (befitting an ode to the Rhine) and CE eschews point-making and lets it flow.
A performance that would have thrilled Schumann himself
You said it all I think.
I become impatient with the complaints about Schumann's orchestration. Yes, there is thickness, but it can be controlled with good balancing. The point with Schumann anyway is the narrative, which Eschenbach gets. Oh yeah, and Schumann was among the first great composers to feature the then new valved horn in a symphony.
I completely agree! We played this symphony in my youth orchestra this year and it felt so great to play this masterpiece! It definitely isn’t an easy symphony, but so much fun when you finally get it (although as a second violin there are some bits which aren’t that fun to play but let’s ignore that it’s still so much fun to be a part of a great symphony like that)
@@kxra0624 I too play 2nd violin in my city's symphony orchestra and I agree.
Gratulation an Christoph Eschenbach, ich fand Ihre Interpretation besonders gelungen. Vielen Dank!
Merci à chacun des musiciens de l 'Orchestre. Vous êtes chacun, des personnes magnifiques, des musiciens merveilleux.
This is one of those achievements in Western Art that leave me-and I hope, with you!-feeling that life is truly worth the stretches of incapacitating pain, the gratuitous moments of epic disappointment.The artists who author such unsupportable optimism are heros, sure, but first, saints and commiserationists. .
This speaks to the soul, and off the charts
Thank you so much!!

You are welcome

Sehr schön, herzlichen Dank!
Die Liebe ist Symphonie. Es ist spannend und kräftig zugleich. Schöne Interpretation des NDR zuständig C. Eschenbach. Herzliche Glückwünsche.
The Timpanist appears to be playing from memory, can anyone see a music stand for the timpanist, because I can't, and that's amazing! A wonderful performance :)
You're right, @lipkinasl, our timpani player Stephan Cürlis does play from memory a lot of the times :)
@@NDRKlassik that is beyond brilliant. I think of the timpani as the human blood vessel walls that essentially carry the collective sublime sounds of the orchestra to each part of the orchestra hall--to each listener. One who can capture that as a timpanist at this level, and consistently, is a total gift to us orchestra lovers.
is the timpanist a conductor?
The timpanist plays the timpani = kettle drum!
@@NDRKlassik Curlis and former Cleveland Orchestra timpanist Cloyd Duff were maybe the two best I've encountered on this particular percussion instrument.......
All 4 sections are beautiful. But I am biased as a flute player: I love these woodwinds. They shine. Thank you for the stunning and shimmering Schumann.
Thank you, with pleasure! And thanks for sharing your opinion! 🤩
So schön! Danke.
Herzlich gern! Wir danken!
Magnifique Musique. Extra ordinaire. Magnifique exécution comme toujours avec Christoph Eschenbach Magnifique Orchestre..
Merci À Vous!
Συγχαρητηρια στο μαεστρο και στην ορχηστρα ! Εξαιρετικη αποδοση του εργου του Schumann !
Note the motif in the first movement used in Brahms's Third Symphony. Good performance but I refer you to the clearer lines of the Berlin Philharmonic under Ricardo Muti.
昔ピアノを弾く貴公子のような若きエッシェンバッハをテレビで見ましたが、大変貌しても繊細で細やかな音楽は生きていました。佇まいも好きです。
What a poetic composition
your reply is so simple and so true! i often think this about many of his piano works.
Lebhafte und spannende Aufführung dieser majestätischen Sinfonie mit gut phrasierten und perfekt synchronisierten Töne aller Instrumente. Der geniale Maestro dirigiert das perfekt trainierte Orchester im inspirierenden Tempo mit effektiver Dynamik. Einfach atemberaubend!
28:29 The rapid run of sixteenth notes seems to amuse the viola player. 😄
Best performance!!!!!!
How many likes would you give to the timpanist?
Köszönöm, mindig jó hallgatni
Köszönöm, üdvözlet Magyarországnak!
Finale starts at 26:33.
Super Horn!
Vielen Dank! 🤩
역시 브람스의 스승 슈만
멋진 작품
뒤셀도르프의 라인강 힘찬 기운이 느껴집니다^^
Awesome! Thank you for joining us!
That first movement is almost Sawallisch bang on.
with Schumann it's not about entire symphonies that are great, but great single movements.
sorry this guy ever parted ways with the Philadelphia Orchestra - oh well, at least I get to see him on CZcams
Should be started with swift bombastic playing--a grandness.
Bravi!
Second movement starts at 9:38.
In the text it says this is Schubert's 3rd Symphony. WRONG. It is Schumann's 3rd Symphony.
Ouch, thank you for mentioning it! Obv we had ha slip up in our translation. Now fixed!
Dr Evil conducts.
The only pianist who became a great conductor if I may say so
YOU FORGOT MOZART AND BEETHOVEN.
@@rishabhdeogopichand7946 i never heard them…lol
Dr Evil conducts Bob Schumann.
music by white male conducted by white male great !
And the Philadelphia orchestra couldn’t figure out how to make music with this guy!
Says much about the orchestra.
In 1986, the condutor was removed from his post as Chief Conductor of the Tonhalle Orchestra. They could not figure out how to make music with him.
Dr Evil before the conversion.
Es wird Zeit, dass Eschenbach in Pension geht.
The camera is on the 'conductor' too much. Who cares about him?
We do! ;) And we had a different comment from Japan the other day which would prefer much more close ups of the conductor - seems to be a matter of taste. Or viewing habits. Thank you for your feedback though!
@@NDRKlassik The 'conductor' is simply acting out what the superb orchestral musicians are playing. Keep worshiping the leader, though. He is USELESS.
We certainly agree on the "superb" musicians! :) And above all keep worshiping the music.
@@NDRKlassik The superb musicians are enjoying themselves WITH HUMILITY and PURPOSE. The 'conductor' is simply titillated by being in charge - and thinking that what he is doing has ANY bearing on what the musicians are doing. Disgusting.
Many people do. Try not to speak for others)
they are bored.
