Richard Strauss: An Alpine Symphony | Giuseppe Sinopoli and the Staatskapelle Dresden

exquisito

It's interesting that the beginning and descending theme after Sunrise resemble Verklärte Nacht by A. Schoenberg...

Thanks for uploading such a great performance.
After this concert in Dresden they went to Tokyo to bring this work and I was there. Their performance was one of the most amazing and exciting experiences throughout the entire concerts in my life.
The orchestra is known as the one which has been dedicated this work directly by the composer and famous for the first performance in the world. I have more than 40 different performances of this work in CDs. Among them this performance is so unique and it’s impossible for other orchestras to achieve this level of performance in terms of quality of clear sound, wider dynamic range from silence to massive sound and unique change of paces between slow and high speeds which is nothing comparable. The conductor has succeeded in creating every single sound brilliantly from the orchestra which has to be talented and admired.

Strauss ist ja vor allen auch als Lieder-Komponist bekannt. Das Stück "Morgen" würde ich da als Einstieg empfehlen.

R.I.P. Maestro Sinopoli you were a great director , also author of the wonderful " Parsifal in Venice " . A great personality who disappeared too soon.

Unbelievable.

So Slow! It seems to loose a lot of forward momentum at these tempos.

Strauss and a Killer Sudoku, very nice way to spend an hour on a cloudy Sunday

Creo que es una de las obras maestras del compositor, en manos, aquí, de un gran director que, aunque italiano, dirige con solvencia el repertorio germánico

I may not know the anatomy of a symphony...I really enjoyed the soft & mellow parts that comes inbetween, a lot :) Beautiful composition :) I had a great time watching this video :)

Bravo 👏 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹Thank you ❤️

I'm assuming this was a recording made on videotape instead of film. I know the technology for high definition video on tape was available in 1998, but seeing a live recording from before 2000 in HD still blows my mind sometimes. Either that, or the upscaling is remarkable.

PERFECTION!!!!!
One of the Worlds Greatest orchestras performing fantastic music that is in their blood.
Thanks for sharing 👍

RIP Maestro Giuseppe Sinopoli 🌹

Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführung dieser spätromantischen und einzigartig konstruierten Sinfonie mit farbenreichen doch perfekt entsprechenden Tönen aller Instrumente. Der intelligente und geniale Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut analysierten Tempo und mit perfekt kalkulierter Dynamik. Das war Giuseppe Sinopoli!

It is a pity that Richard Strauss is mainly known only for a few bars of Zarathustra.

Fantastic!

excellent！
