I've seen this piece performed where they use two snare drummers (not from the very beginning though). They have to be in complete sync with each other on top of everything else.
I've always said that this is one of the hardest symphonies for a drummer to perform. Holding the same rhythm for 15 minutes straight is brutal if you asked me. I think I'd mentally collapse within a few minutes of doing the same 10-15 beats over and over again. This is a job for AIs, not for humans. Mad respect for the drummers that have to perform Bolero and still pull it perfectly!
I think the same! And do this with others playing at your side more and more strong, his level of concentration is insane!! Certainly Ravel hated drummers!!
Es la pieza más difícil que existe para los trombonistas…se la conoce como “la muerte del trombonista” ya que el trombón,después de esperar bastante tiempo para entrar,comienza a tocar en una nota muy aguda,y con los músculos de los labios fríos es muy difícil hacerlo bien. Se dice que muchos suelen fallar…
Bolero, by Marice Ravel, TODAY I am 77 years old, I have been listening to it since I was 16, in moments of some distress, I listen to it, and it fills me with harmony and peace. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. HUGS FROM MY SALTA LA LINDA IN ARGENTINA.
I'll never forget Allondra. I spoke to her about 4 years ago when she was at another orchestral posting. Expressive and talented, the orchestra and audience were captivated by her. You are lucky to have her next in Europe.
The only who should only be recognized for this is the snare drummer. To play that long at a steady tempo takes slot of concentration. So Bravo to the snare drummer :)
I grew up listening to this and other classical music at bedtime. It came to be the we kids couldn't get to sleep without music. No surprise that my sis and I are musicians.
At the end of this piece she is not just conducting the orchestra it's as if she's actrually drawing the music out of the orchestra. Fantastic performance
Alondra is the perfect conductor for Ravel's sensual masterpiece--She exhibits grace and power and above all passion for the work which the classic so richly conveys--providing us with harmony for our senses
I have seen performances of Bolero where both the orchestra and conductor seem totally bored with this piece that they have probably played more times than they care to remember. Not so here! They managed to bring new life to this old stand-by. You can see the energy between Alondra de la Parra and the orchestra... It is absolutely infectious. This one is definitely a keeper and is going straight to my favorites list.
AMAZING!!! The way she has them really getting into this piece and the look of enjoyment. She has commanded them and they give it all they have. But hats off to the drummer who kept PERFECT time and rhythm for the whole 15 minutes. BRAVO!!!!
I remember, a few years back I was driving my pickup truck down the highway with Bolero blasting through my speakers. I enjoyed that😍. I came across an accident, stopped AND the look on the Police Officer's face as he approached my truck and hearing Bolero, was priceless.🤩 He wasn't expecting a classical song coming from a ranch truck.🤔 I giggled all the way home just replaying that scene in my mind. 😀😁😁
To dobrze że trafiłeś na muzykalnego polizmaistra i wśród tej grupy są muzykalni ludzie , jeżdżąc w latach 60 70 cieższymi autami po trasach też lubiłem posłuchać Ravela Rossiniego czy Czajkowskiego Pozdrawiam Amigo schofer
I discovered Bolero when i was 14 almost 35 years ago. I was was in a neighbors car who had the Essential Karajan playing on the (cassette tape) stereo.. Bolero was playing and from then I have loved this and many more pieces of classical music. This version shouts out that we need so many more females in conductor roles. 5 stars.
My Grandmother, the real musician in my family, introduced me to this stunning piece when I was just a little kid (75 years ago). For this performance... Bravo indeed!
Alondra de la Porra deserves great respect as a Maestro, for she conducts the music with so much harmony and feeling into it that even I, as an observer, can feel the music in my bones!
Weltrang ist vielleicht ein wenig viel, da schauen wir nach Berlin oder Amsterdam, aber ein wirklich sehr gutes Orchester, bei dem man sich freut eine tolle Frau am Pult zu sehen
Always a favorite. I was a percussionist and drummer. I switched to hand drums a few years ago. Always loved "Bolero" because of the featuring of the drummer straight from the top and then the progression they are given. I still love snare, and could hammer one in an age when you never saw a GIRL in the drum pit. Played it all. Never have performed "Bolero", but will always adore Torvill and Dean for giving it to the world. Thanks, for being there Ravel.
In Miami, during the sixties and seventies, there was a radio station playing classical music exclusively. Bolero would play every so often. When it did, I'd stop what I was doing and imagine the piece to be the perfect background music for love-making, start to finish. Then, in '84, Torvill and Dean stunned the world with their interpretation for the Olympic ice dancing final skate. It was then I realized dance was also another form of love making. Thanks for the reminder...
What energy, what energy, what energy. Best rendition of Bolero I have seen and heard so far. Simply the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On a lighter note - along with her baton, her hair was also superbly giving directions. Superb, altogether.
That poor poor drummer, have you ever tried to keep a perfect rhythm for 14 minutes?, I tell you intrusive thoughts will haunt your mind every second, That drummer is fighting a Jedi mind battle.
See the one with Dudamel....that one was about 17-18 minutes. I praise them both (and all drummers having experienced this one) though. Such strong focus.
As always, I love this tune so much. I found one new fact out of this performance. She's the most beautiful conductor I've ever seen. And her facial impressioon and motion gives me very good feeling like she is truly enjoying her profession!
Das Meisterwerk von Maurice Ravel. Geschaffen für die Ewigkeit. Nur die Besten werden dieses Werk zu würdigen wissen und diese Harmonie mit dem Orchester erreichen. NUR DIE BESTEN.
Alondra de la Parra hermosa mujer . no cabe duda que siente la música , la disfruta y cuando esto sucede el resultado es elocuente, los integrantes de la orquesta todos a la perfección , cada uno es un maestro en su instrumento que al igual que Alondra se ve que se meten en su instrumento musical con gran pasión , sin dejar de mencionar al baterista que con ese mismo ritmo ,en los casi 15 min del bolero no desentona en ninguno de sus toques , la interpretación de este bolero es majestuosa , excelsa , un verdadero deleite a los oídos de la audiencia presente y personas que al igual que yo lo vemos por este medio . Chihuahua México
Jesus Christ, what was that???? I've played with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra for a very long time, we've played the Bolero with almost every famous conductor. And now there's this version ... and it's new, fresh, incredibly great dance music, a new composition by Ravel unlike anything I've ever heard. Let's all praise Alondra de la Parra! She's beyond amazing, she created with the WDR Orchestra a new masterpiece!
This is an absolute feast for the eyes, a symphony for the ears, food for the soul and a gift for the heart. Thank you for this exquisite experience where "separation" disappears and the orchestra flows in harmony and unity under the magnificent baton of Maestra de la Parra.
!!!... Fenomenal...!!! Ver a cada maestro con su instrumento sin ningún error; esa música es alimento para el alma, y la cereza del pastel es la belleza de la directora. Felicidades ❤
May I add my voice to the praise of the conductor and musicians. But don’t leave out the recording technicians. They too have performed a masterpiece of clarity, balance and immediacy. Over the years there have been probably wonderful performances of Bolero sadly reduced to fair-to-middling recordings, because of inadequate audio equipment (and perhaps non-musical technicians). Happily, times change, I don’t know if this technical crew belongs to WDR, or Kölner Philharmonie, or parttime workers from the docks. But don’t let them get away! They are priceless.
I love this piece. The way individual instruments dominate until the background takes over. I believe Ravel called this an etude, a study, and was amazed that it became so popular.
А что вы можете предложить этому исполнению, если не популярность ? Оно не исполняется, а генерирует в нас , в наших чувствах ! А какова режиссёр ! Она ведёт и сопровождает четко ❤ режиссёр? режиссёр? 5:28
Tell you something else ... Listening to Maurice Ravel's Bolero you find yourself in the company of some of the most sophisticated soulmates on the planet and their appreciation of an aesthetic. Love you guys ❤
Maurice Ravel was a brilliant, forward-looking composer and one of the greatest orchestrators in the history of music. He composed so many outstanding works, yet the public only ever wants to hear one of them--again and again and again and again and again and again, and then again again.
@@dirkseibert3939Geschmäcker sind verschieden. Vielleicht hattest du aber einfach mehr Glück und hast noch bessere Versionen gefunden. Für mich ist aber die hier Favorit. Viele Grüße
Lindo como poucos... Boleto de Ravel mistura-se aos primórdios da humanidade neste astro celeste. Alondra de La Parra regendo como uma verdadeira rainha, encanta-me assistir e apreciar suas apresentações . E quanto a mim, cabe dizer que fico eternamente agradecido por ter sido tomado por algo tão precioso.
This is one of the most impressive performances of Bolero that I have seen and heard. Truly magnificent. The mood changes at around 7:30 when it seems that the whole orchestra has Ravel under control and they *know* they have it under control. You can see the relief and confidence that even the drummer, yes the drummer, is smiling. And he knows he has to keep the beat for another 7 minutes............ Alondra de la Parra is unbelievable. It is like getting a ballet dancer turned classical actress to conduct. Around the 12:00 mark, she is almost daring the musicians (they respond 13:20) and quite literally lets her hair down at 13:40. Her performance is subtle, elegant and calming. I suspect that she would be equally at ease with a group of completely uncoordinated 8th-grade kids. Around 8:45 and 13:00, even the harp looks impressive. This is the performance for which I would have wished to have VIP tickets that offered a behind-the-scene tour where you get to meet each of the performers and congratulate them.
Beautiful classic music at its very best the musicians deserve a lot of credit just image what a practice is before a real live concert you can do my job and I can't do your job love and appreciate you guys thanks you guys rock let's stop and honor this moment ! Joe
This has always been one of my favorite pieces of all time. The way each instrument has their own little part to play and shine, and the incredible talent of that drummer to maintain that rhythm for 15 mins straight is amazing. Alondra always such a good and charismatic conductor, the way she has so much energy is so entertaining to see!!! Amazing WDR Orchestra, this is definitely one of my favorite interpretations of this masterpiece.
I'm sure that's what's meant John, but don't forget, this is US spelling, language changes in foreign parts, just thinking of Aftrikaans is an (xtreme) example
Allodra de la Parra je prekrásna žena a perfektná hudobníčka s nesmiernym muzikálnym nadaním a v rukách má superkvalitný orchester.Je to perfektný zážitok.Ďakujem
Much respect to Alondra de la Parra. Watching her communicate with the orchestra was amazing. She used her baton, her eyes, her smile, her body movements. It was amazing, and the orchestra responded. They were so into the piece, it was incredible. I have become a fan of her and her talents.
Magnifica orquesta dirigida orgullosamente por la mexicana y extraordinaria alondra de la Parral primera mujer que dirigió una orquesta en el madison square garden de new York gran orgullo para México
Que hermosa, refinada y culta mujer....excelente directora de orquesta....felicidades a los hermanos mexicanos....un motivo más para sentirse orgullosos
¿Cómo es posible que una canción dure 15 minutos, sostenga el mismo ritmo constantemente y no aburra no un segundo? Es un in crescendo constante y no te cansa nunca
And the drummer! To keep the tempo and the right volume for 15 minutes... absolutely insane. Much, much respect!
Yes ! 👍
I've seen this piece performed where they use two snare drummers (not from the very beginning though). They have to be in complete sync with each other on top of everything else.

Much respect to Alondra de la Parra. Watching her communicate with the orchestra was amazing. She used her baton, her eyes, her smile, her body movements. It was amazing, and the orchestra responded. They were so into the piece, it was incredible. I have become a fan of her and her talents.
Thank you very much! ❤
Concuerdo al 100% !!!
The drums have the most important part! Congratulations.
I loved every note, every beat, every direction, every moment! ❤🎶

Magnifique avec en plus une femme cheffe d'orchestre 😊
Merci 😊
The conductor kept it all together! With magnificent results!!!! Absolutely fantastic
ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО потрясающе ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО!!!👏😍❤
Magnificent treatment of the one-of-a-kind “Bolero.” Nice to hear it played so expertly.
This woman is a goddess and Bolaro could not have been more beautifully conducted
I couldn't agree more.
Beatiful. And I am not going to lie, the conductor is astonishing.
"DIRECTORA"
Performances are excellent thank you so much for sharing Bravo ! Congraliations thanks 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🙌👍👌👏🙏🙏🙏🙏
¿Cómo es posible que una canción dure 15 minutos, sostenga el mismo ritmo constantemente y no aburra no un segundo? Es un in crescendo constante y no te cansa nunca
Genial!!!!!!
Ravel composed this music piece during a time he was suffering from severe memory loss hence this genius outcome
Por eso mismo que es "in crescendo", la melodía no aburre
A Masterpiece. Exquisite Performance.
Great performance.she is great
Never truly appreciated BOLERO,until hearing/ seeing this! That drummer!!! The conductor!! Exhilirating!
Great performance. I love how Ravel had the Eb clarinet foreshadow the more rawness of the sax. Beautiful.
Thank you 😊
What a conductor, what a performance!
Thank you! 🥰
