    Proof that a small orchestra can still sound massive with the right music, performers, and room.

    Very clear, dynamic, attractive performance. No conductor. The concert master is leading and shaping very effectively. This is probably more or less how orchestras played in Beethoven's time where conductors still basically just gave the tempo and beat time. Absolutely beautiful.

  • @classicinvestmentwatches676

    By far te best Beethoven in 30 years. How it overcomes the lack of big orchestra is the miracle in itself. But rather a genious conductor himself!

    This is so well balanced. The players are listening to each other and responding. And there is an infectious energy, which you notice in the way the rhythms have forward momentum. Very impressive.

      Magnifique ! Pureté du son, interprétation vivante, quel bel ensemble!! J'adore ces "petits formats" d'orchestre

    Unlike anything I've ever seen. Pretty impressive how everyone is mindful and paying attention to each other. You can notice it by their body language, the casual smiles and the eye contact. It just make the whole thing more energetic and wholesome. I'm always revisiting this one.

      The people in the audience should have given them a rousing standing ovation as far as i,m concerned !!!!!

    apotheosis of dance in a sublime interpretation

  • @stephenfannin7925

    Bravo! I often stand up as a fiddle player and sit down as a violinist. There is an added expressivity when you can put your entire body into it. There is a sort of dance that served this particular work well. The dynamics were outstanding. Unfortunately - since we all get older - this is for a more youthful group. For something this long, my feet would hurt.

    I miss playing with the orchestra so much...Once you've played in an orchestra you never want to miss it. It's such a special and unique experience to make music together and also to feel it together...I can't describe it.
    But thanks a lot for this wonderful performance! I really enjoyed it

    Ich liebe diesen Sound, nicht so glatt gebügelt, wie von den berühmten Sinfonieorchestern, mit soviel Leidenschaft gespielt. Einfach mitreißend. ❤❤

  • @paulpadillo4591
    @paulpadillo4591 Před 2 lety +8

    Incredble. Like everything they do, they make the familiar (and at times over-familiar) sound new . . . almost as if being composed before our eyes. Tremendous work. If it's possible to fall in love with an orchestra . . . Well, too late - I'm in love with NCO!

  • @nanxi1211

    Pekka is bouncing on his knees giving the minimal but necessary direction of tempo throughout the symphony, subtly keeping the whole thing together and making sure all musicians have the same pulse. This is such a genius way of reinventing the role of the conductor - to minimise the power hierarchy while carrying out a unified musical idea at the same time.

  • @jandrewscali

    The essence of chamber music. Listening to each other and playing beautiful music! Bravo! Love this performance!

    I find the great Pekka Kuusisto's peculiar way of directing admirable. Breaking stereotypes achieves, in my opinion, an extraordinary result. Thanks for sharing.

    Love how many performers I see here I also see performing with the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra. So much fine music coming from Norway!

    Am I the only one who heard those eight extra bars they stuffed in at the end of the first movement? How dare they!

    There is so much more energy and engagement in this interpretation than any other I can recall. Brilliant! (and I'm totally happy to forgive the small oops's in the ascending line at 1.18 as part of the human experience 🙂).

    • @Stone2home

      Yes, there was a good little bit of "the human experience" in a spot or two. But it was great though!

    They are all interactive intimately as though they are playing a Baroque suite. I'm not sure, however, as though the music was ever being This performed. But it makes for a springy edgy performance!

    I noticed some things about this symphony in this performance and video recording that I hadn't picked up on in Big Band recordings. Did members of the orchestra get goose bumps while playing the fourth movement? BTW, check out Herbert Kegel and the Dresden Philharmonic recording sometime. They rolled from the third movement into the fourth w/o a break. Nifty. Thanks for posting. Best Wishes for the New Year from a viewer in Washington,DC

    It is very highly balanced and controlled performance. It is very closed one from the ideal balances.
    But i think very sorry about that it was inserted the unexpected eight bars at 13:55.. poor thing..

      You don't need that... Chamber is listening to each other... No conductor means nobody can distract you with excessive gestures while playing 🙂🙂🙂 love chamber music for that 🙂🙂❤️❤️

  • @herminioteixeira5921
    @herminioteixeira5921 Před rokem

    Este vídeo magnífico, mostra que não é necessário uma Orquestra grande, para apresentar uma grande obra; e, mostra igualmente como, músicos tocando de pé, envolvendo o corpo inteiro, podem fazer diferença numa interpretação mais eloquente. Aumentando o espigão, celistas também podem tocar de pé.

  • @sean7685

    lmao the concertmastewr smiled at 1:18 cuz someone played a wrong note in the violin section (there is no "perfect' concert, not tryna criticize here).

    @Vivi16392 Před rokem

    naaahhhhhhh. I'm sorry people ,,, that one didn't land ,,,,,, it's all correct and together but it's so lackluster ,,,,,,,, sometimes the non-conductor thing becomes a Meme ,,,,,, that's what happened in this case ,,,,, to play well and alone is not enough for a great musical performance of a work like this ,,,,,,,, simply disappointing .......
