You couldn't be more right, Caleb Hu! In 1953, I used the carefully accumulated savings of my first job to start my musical treasury with Beethoven's fifth concerto by Arthur SchnabeI with the Chicago Symphony whose conductor I am not sure of but think it was Rafael Kubelik. An album with five vinyl records. And would you believe that I still remember some of the interruptions when the changer pushed the following record in? I repeated that marvelous experience with the other four concertos, before giving attention to other composers.

It’s such a beautiful piece associated with ‘Horse of the Year’ in equestrian terms. The total symphony is very well done I love the drum roll. Ivan Fischer is so immersed in conducting. Wonderful to watch him. The R.C.O. are great.

I am from a small town in Southern part of India, now 54 years, I didn't have exposure to western classical music till age 22, when I accidentally tuned in ( one of those old time old valve radios) in AM stations ( called short wave) and briefly ended on a random BBC station and it was a celestial feeling ( I learnt many years later after I moved to USA, it was one of the Bach pieces), then when I listened to an audio music when cars were reversing to alert pedestrians through a Fur Elise music bit didn't know it was Beethovens. One of the greatest composers of India Ilaiyaraaja (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilaiyaraaja), introduced many of the listeners to western classical music through his phenomenal film score. Fast forward many years I had my life time opportunity to visit Beethovens birth place in Bonn and visited his house now maintained as a museum ( with his original scores, piano, his actual hair fore lock cut from his head when he passed away), the experience was surreal. Beethovens music takes me in time and without having any connections what so ever I feel I am walking in Germany, Vienna 300- 400 years ago while listening to his music

It was a so-called "Beethoven Marathon" in my hometown. I was all alone throughout, but it was truly one of the most beautiful, most memorable days of my life.

@@samyandkitty8399 I'm glad your dad and grandad endowed you with your grounding in classical music and were so close to you. I was miss my my dad and grandad very much. My grandad passed on the folk tradition of our music, singing old tunes to me. My dad had seriously considered becoming a concert pianist and paid his way through college through giving piano lessons. He felt it was very important to raise your kids with these things also. My dad would play Beethoven piano sonata's for us as had kids and would take me to hear our metropolitan symphonic orchestra. He and had each of us learn at least one instrument. My oldest sister trained in violin and continued into adulthood in her community symphony orchestra. My middle sister took up viola, then cello. My youngest sister took up oboe and trained with a professional oboist in our metropolitan symphony. I took up piano like my dad and then trombone in school and then then guitar. I have a child who is a trained vocalist who competed in school contests and has a lifetime love of music. Classical music also helps children mathematically, with logical processing and thinking areas of life, language learning and a host of other areas of life alongside artistic and emotional expression and understanding, from things that I have read and observed. Thanks for your response.

The players and the director often smiling to each other, made it seem almost intimate. Maestro Fischer is a brilliant interpreter, conductor, and communicator.

The 7th Symphony is one of these masterpieces he wrote that inspired my passion while growing up. I even got the chance to recently hear the Colorado Symphony perform it as a first act. The second act had Itzhak Perlman come on stage to perform his beautiful violin. It was a night never to be forgotten!

There is still plenty of time! I am 24 and have listened to symphonies for at least 10 years. Actually, it is probably closer to 15 years. They can bring you a lifetime of joy and pleasure. I am still finding new pieces, but it takes times since there's so many masterpieces and I never get bored of them, I must listen to them over and over again. But that is a mark of a good and beautiful piece of art, whether it is a painting, book, poem, movie, music or a video game. The first piece was probably Vivaldi's Four Seasons, and in retrospect, Sibelius' Finlandia, although I didn't view it as such in the time. Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto was another. I quickly progressed to Beethoven and Bach, and the piano lessons I started helped me tremendously to understand classical music. I wish I knew more about jazz! I like to listen to it, but I never received an education on it in the conservatory. There is plenty of really interesting stuff there to listen and discover.

My elder brothers best friend was emigrating to Canada(we were never to meet again) and knowing of my growing interest in classical music he gave me his Lp of this symphony, performed, incidentally by the Concertgebouw orchestra and it stuck an immediate chord with me and I have loved it ever since.

My grandparents were Tanglewood season pass holders. Every year in the Berkshires. My grandmother told 7 year old me that the 2nd movement allegretto in A minor is the sound of angels climbing up the stairs to heaven. We were there in August of 1990 when Leonard Bernstein conducted his final concert and played this, 2 months before he died. My grandpa was a vascular surgeon and could tell by the coughing that Lenny had very little time left. He retired 3 weeks after, and passed in October.

In my 70 years I've rarely heard a performance of this symphony that really engaged me, even by greats such as Reiner and Kleiber. But this performance is truly a standout. Incredible energy, beautiful revelations of detail, stunning musianship. When it was over, I was in tears. The people in that audience were most fortunate to hear it live.

I first heard this symphony in about 1956 or 1957 - thanks to a magnificent high school music teacher. I must have listened to it thousands of times by now - I'm 82. To me it is perfect in every respect. It has something that will attract almost everyone's ear. The bit of conducting instruction I received in college drives me to "conduct" it when I'm listening alone...otherwise people would think I'm crazy waving my arms around like that. This piece along with Beethoven's Leonore and Egmont Overtures have stuck with me through all these years and remain my very favorite pieces of music.

Fischer is fantastic. Produces world class with the Budapest Festival Orchestra for decades now. Makes orchestras like the National Symphony (were he was principal guest conductor) sound twice as good as they normally are. Delivers impeccable performances with the RCO and the BPO. Why this guy doesn't seem to be in the running for these orchestras' top jobs is beyond my understanding.
@tamalocal9 жыл бұрын
herodot2 Fischer is exceptional but he doesn't have PR, marketing, agents doing his bidding like the superstar conductors, even though many are clearly inferior. Genuine talent seems to be irrelevant in the music biz.

herodot2 Maybe he prefers to live in Budapest and doesn't care much for great riches and fame? Come to think of it, Herbert von Karajan was apparently not so great at all but was presented as being extraordinary by the rec. companies. He was quite a show-man and a nazi-collaborator or just a nazi too of course.
@MyMusic02018 жыл бұрын
+herodot2 He doesn't want to. Budapest Festival Orch. is his baby. In Washington he was interim for years, but always refused to take the position as Music Director. And why should he? He is not only a conductor, he is a conductor who does thorough research, who needs time for research and contemplation. He has a massive musical conscience and sometimes refuses to conduct certain pieces because of their musical content (like the St. Matthew's Passion). He is content with his circle of well-known musical friends, like the RCO, where he is quite popular.
@MyMusic02018 жыл бұрын
We can only speculate on his reasons not to become the boss in Berlin. Don't forget that the Berliners claim that "it doesn't matter who stands in front of them They're better than any conductor, anyhow" :-D Regarding the St. Matthew Passion: I thought Fischer refused to play it, because of the anti-semitic texts here and there. Or was it St. John's Passion? I may have confused the two.
