Ask any orchestral musician and he will probably tell you that Strauss's music is the most dificult to play and conduct. And D.Juan must be on the top of the list with all its complexity. This piece must have been played thousands of times since its creation by hundreds of orchestras but I dare anyone to point out a clearly more revealing, cleaner, tighter than this one. For me, D.Juan is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever created, gives me goose bumps everytime I hear it, brings tears to my eyes and, if I'm alone and don't risk beeing interned, I conduct like crazy! When hearing it try to "dive" deep inside that "mass" of sound so perfectly combined and harmonized and every time you will find something, some detail, something important to the whole you never noticed before. A treasure...

The fact that this is available for free is amazing.

Dang. The conductor wasn't gonna waste any time. "yeah yeah you can stop clapping now. one-and-two-AAAND!"

the oboe solo was absolutely divine

Frankfurt Radio Symphony has stolen my heart. please, return it - so that I may love again

2:20 amazing how two glock notes can be so nuanced

Who is here after watching TwoSet 10 levels of orchestral music video? 🤩❤️ It's just amazing!

Yes, you are studying this excerpt and you need to listen

This makes me miss my orchestra season so much :(

you would never know how insanely difficult this is to listen to this recording. Beautifully played.

The two drops of sweat down the conductor’s face at the end says it all!

0:45 jesus, you could think these people are being punished instead of enjoying Don Juan.

Oboensolo direkt aus dem Himmel. Unglaublich schön.

Can't believe i'm seeing this live in 2 weeks, the same night Hilary Hahn will perform the Sibelius concerto right in front of my eyes. I'm so excited!!!

I have listened to this composition so many times. I have also attended a concert in Toronto. I am not expert but i think this is the best performance I have ever heard. I like the passion of this conductor and his "Let's go!"

The instruments in this orchestra are all amazingly beautiful. Best selection of special quality instruments put together I've seen in many years

Don Juan is - for me - the work where Strauss truly found his own voice and fully stepped out of the Brahmsian world of his previous works and boy did he do it with a bang!

THINKING 8 HORNS FOR DON JUAN A REAL CHOP BUSTER EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE UNDERRATED ORCHESTRA TOP FIVE IN MY BOOK

So wonderful, that they put out whole pieces. So we can enjoy their musicianship every time we wish for

please tell me i’m not the only one here because of love is a rebellious bird

The oboe et 7:34!! Magnificent

I've known this piece seemingly forever yet was bowled over by this other worldly performance. Wow.

Whenever I listen to this piece I just can forget everything and enjoy.

So many violinists watching this to prepare for their orchestral audition 😂 Good luck everyone🍀

I love those rotary-valve trumpets that the German orchestras use.

Just a fabulous piece of music by a genius composer. One of the few where the oboe is given a great solo, and here the guy nailed it. To the novice who has not been exposed to classical music, this should be the introductory work. If he/she is not bowled over, it's never gonna happen

His music evokes so many vivid emotions! He is truly the king of late romanticism.

This performance captures all the urgency, emotion, drama and beauty of this gorgeous score. (And the camera work wasn't all that bad either!) This excellent orchestra and conductor never fails to be superb!

Been listening to this nonstop during quarantine

Superb ensemble performing genius level work.

One sunny day, in April of 1965, a twelve-year-old, friend of mine, Bob, told me of a strange response his parents made to his question about what it was like 'making love'. They brought him into the living room. where the record player was and set the needle on a spot in the early part of the recording of "Don Juan" by Richard Strauss. His father said, "Son, when the music starts your mother and I will leave the room and you listen closely to the music; that will be the answer to your question and we will be back in three minutes." I did as my father and mother suggested and listened very closely...while listening it was like that feeling I get when I start on a swing, going up and down slowly at first then getting really high and jump off...I'm going to like 'making love' when my turn comes!!! That is what Bob said. PS, on the KZfaq video it starts at the 1:40 time and ends at the 4:15 time.

PERÚ ---- Muchas gracias Director Orosco Estrada y Orquesta.

A superb performance. The technical sound and camera work were also truly amazing.

Wonderful. Bealtiful Melody...!

Orozco Estrada doit être porté en triomphe avant de partir pour d'autres cieux (Wiener Sinfoniker). Quel chef! Et quel orchestre !! Merci pour tout. Solo de hautbois extraordinaire. Mon fils est hautboiste professionnel et m'a dit que ce solo est l'un des plus difficile au point de vue respiration et expressivité

What a wonderful orchestra this is. Kudos to the conductor for producing such a tremendous performance!

Glorioso performance! The most asked for audition piece for double bass, it and Ein Heldenleben. Glorioso

Wtf no standing ovation after all that???

The horn melody is awesome !

Weltklasse-Orchester, an jeder Position.

I got to play this when I was younger. Great piece!

Ling ling brought me here too

4:34 if any trumpet player is looking for the lyrical excerpt here it is pov: I wrote this because I have this for an audition soon

When I am feeling blue this piece was the always comfort of mine.

Parabens. Muito lindo e minha música predileta e esse solo de oboé foi extremamente bem executado

Beautiful...So beautiful...Thanks.. Germany == Genius at Music

Bravo 🥰💎👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Magnificent

really amazing!

눈에 뜨이는 매끄러운 소리가 막힘없이 짜나간다! The smooth sound that catches your eye is squeezed without clogging!

A stellar oboe solo. Great playing all around.

15:01 violin excerpt

YES FINALLY MY DUDE

I love this

Always coming to Frankfurt for (violin) orchestral passages 😍

Strauss is German. The clear, emotional and tight connection is the composer himself. Interpretation and performance is clear!!!!!!

The edit on this is incredibly amazing.

Wunderschöne und spannende Aufführung dieser spätromantischen Tondichtung mit farbenreichen und perfekt vereinigten Tönen aller Instrumente. Alle Soloinstrumente klingen besonders schön und echt lyrisch. Der geniale Maestro dirigiert das ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut phrasierten und relativ schnellen Tempo und mit völlig effektiver Dynamik. Einfach wunderbar!

Sans doute le plus étincelant des poèmes symphoniques de R. Strauss dans une interprétation de référence. Avec l'amical coucou habituel à Clara, l'enchanteresse.

No one else is sweating except the conductor! He's got a tough job.

ostia tío... Esta increíble esta interpretación de Don Juan

結尾嘹亮的法國號特別震撼，最喜歡的一段

Maybe the greatest compliment is that the conductor conducts like a German

1:45 Cellist: looks like it is my turn

Nice

Some parts almost sound like film music.

Beautiful; could someone add the timestamps for the movements please? Thx

Okay the way the flautist looks at the oboist and takes up the tune...

È cambiata la spalla?

starting 0:14

This music definitely requires the most virtuosity from the musicians besides Ravel's music.

Oh come on y’all! Such gushing! A perfectly acceptable performance, but please have a listen to some legendary recordings. Try Solti/Chicago from 1975. The thrilling forward propulsion, the cinematic sweep…..Solti and his band leave these guys in the dust! As for the loud, nasal oboe in this recording, I’ll take Ray Still (Chicago) at the peak of his career in 1975, or John Mack (Szell/Cleveland) for musicality and sheer beauty of sound.

I’m an oboist and I watched this video for the solos and it’s kinda sad that I can tell that he’s playing a buffet crampon virtuose oboe.

YA, YA, YA! “ACH DU LIEBER, MEIN SCHATZ” ( small “g” in lieber!)!!! HOW can a group of such wonderful “INDIVIDUAL” musicians” play so “wonderfully as a WHOLE”??? AND do it so gorgeously on such a fantastic piece of music as this? As a BORN AGAIN, SAVED CHRISTIAN, in JESUS CHRIST, I would not be ashamed in the least to be “ushered into HEAVEN” with this piece of music being played (the “storyline” not withstanding)!!! I suspect Richard Strauss was “anti-Christ”! But GOD must have had HIS REASONS for gifting Strauss with such amazingly great musical talent! Will never understand this of course. But so be it! The tremendous “audible & visual treat” of seeing this fabulous music brings great joy into the “marrow of my heart”!!!!! “Gesundheit”!
