Freshly tuned Bösendorfer Imperial
Actually, it needed pitch lowering from 444 to 443Hz. I have no idea who could come up with such a stupid idea - and leaving the top two octaves at 443Hz.

After 4 days of filming, regulation and voicing this 1887 Steinway D finally came a lot closer to what it eventually be. By no means perfect, it needs playing, another tuning and a second session of voicing to bring out more overtones

Strictly Work in Progress. Recorded on an 1887 Steinway D using four omni condensers, one pair right at the piano and one pair back in the room. Recorded, mixed and edited with Ardour, Audacity and kdenlive. The piano is still a diamond in the rough, needs full work on regulation and voicing.

Recorded on a freshly restored (not refurbished or rebuilt) unique Steinway D from 1887, hammers are original, have a little wear and need voicing. Dampers need regulation. Piano has a third front duplex scale and bridge pins at an angle, so strings within a unison have a different speaking length. Action is all original, soundboard is original with some careful repairs and original coating. CI...
J. Brahms: Intermezzo Op.117 No.2, 1887 Steinway D
Переглядів 414 місяці тому
First recording after pitch raise to 443Hz. Known problems: damper regulation, worn hammers that need re-shaping and voicing, both for evenness and elasticity for best dynamic range, una corda adjustment not sufficient and learning to tune a piano with unisons of different speaking lengths. Other than that, a beautiful piano that is unique in the way it has been preserved (original action and h...

To my knowledge this is the only surviving Steinway D built between 1884 and 1892 that still is in its original condition. It has carefully been restored (not rebuilt, refurbished or completely stripped of its innards.) Original set of hammers, original 1887 action. Fully intact original bridges, carefully refined shellac surface, one-piece ivory keys (with CITES certification) and two outstand...

First recording of the Bösendorfer 225 with introducing new attempts of improving the sound of the room while at the same time trying to insulate it from the neighbor's rooms. Right now it's just two rugs with long fibers, foam casters for the leg wheels. Above all it's a 2cm layer of foam elements between ribs (soundboard) and the wooden structural element as part of the rim to keep the whole ...

Very empty and square room with lots of reverb and a brutally loud piano. Audio is NOS with microphones as close into the piano as possible. Synchronisation done with ffmpeg.

Quick and dirty recording with an Olympus OM-D EM-1 Mark II and external electric stereo microphones directly fed into the camera. Recorded at the Palais Palffy in Central Vienna on a Hailun HG 218 semi concert grand that I had just finished tuning (pitch raise by 2Hz, now 438Hz, tomorrow two more tuning sessions to 443Hz.)

The piano is an 1862 C.Bechstein semi-concert grand (220cm), freshly restored, first tuning, no detailed work on the action whatsoever, hammers not mated to strings and only basic regulation.

Most simple set up the Olympus Camera and external electret condenser microphones, so post-processing whatsoever. Capsules of the microphone are 1,50m apart and about the same distance to the piano. On the camera, under Movie settings - one needs to enable Plug-In Power and (counterintuitively) set "Camera Rec. Volume" to "Inoperative. That way the condenser microphone bypass all audio processi...

At 13:35, you can see him saying “Theres’, Theres’, Theres’” - the name he believed Beethoven encoded in that rhythm (Therese Malfatti).
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Classic, distinct Concertgebouw orchestra playing, superb interpretation from Kleiber; we’re lucky to have a record of this performance!
💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫
Great equipment O&K the dump trucks weren’t bad either Detroit engine super charger was sweet 👍
What machine, they don’t make them like they use too ❤️👍
I would have kept that thing at 434. Older pianos are from a time when music was true, pitches were true, and uniformity hadn't yet tainted the instrument pool. Now everything sounds remarkably the same. Beautiful performance or a gorgeous piece; sounds excellent on that instrument.

Marvellous! The DG album of CK recordings with VPO (Vienna Phil) is a gem: it includes the all-time best performance of Beethoven’s Fifth (visit 10 musicologist sites, this performance will top the list in 9 of them), one of the top recordings of Beethoven’s Seventh (in my opinion, right next to Toscanini’s 1937 recording with NY Phil), and Schubert’s Unfinished, which you will find praised everywhere.
Unico
The most beautiful cor anglais solo in all the symphonic repertoire. And Wollenweber performed it splendidly.
Hans Hotter, le chanteur baryton- basse disait de lui: » c’est un dieu qui danse »…. Il y a un livre : MUSIQUE ABSOLUE, Une répétition avec Carlos Kleiber paru en 2014, dont l’auteur est notre ministre des finances, ( ou ex) Bruno Le Maire, pour une fois qu’on a un homme politique mélomane, il faut le lire… très intéressant!
Quel chef fantastique! Le meilleur de tous les temps et pour toujours! Un génie! J’adore le regarder aussi dans la 7ième à Tokyo en 1986, absolument magistral, il est la musique incarnée! Et quelle beauté Carlos! Mon chef préféré…
Great performance and recording. Perhaps the piano was exposed to the elements? When this happens, I find the pitch either goes high or low according to the weather / humidity, ETC.
love love Bosendorfer! Nice sound. Well done.
In fact, I don't think there is a conductor, even today, who has such high standards as Carlos Kleiber.
Kleiber-"The Waltzing Surgeon" meiner Meinung nach auf jedem Fall❤🎉 Extremely precise in whàt he wants but lyrical in hòw. Große Innerlichkeit und Humor.
Thank you!
Beethoven y Carlos Kleiber que mas se puede pedir en este mundo.
He didn't seem to like his page turner. 10:53 11:48 13:14 14:17
L'assolo della tromba così così?
Очень личная Симфония 4. Не указан год написания, но явно вне политики. Радостные надежды Людвига. ❤
"During the screening of the last act, Kleiber and Zeffirelli heard a hopelessly sobbing Bernstein overcome by beauty and fear. He burst out to Kleiber: “You are a god. You are a god!” Kleiber was deeply embarrassed and asked him to calm down." (From "Corresponding with Carlos" by Charles Barber). Any further proof that C. Kleiber was the greatest conductor of them all?
Lovely that Sanderling took the Concertmaster's hand and then asked the orchestra to stand.
Great artist
He conducted not many works, but was the greatest
Beautiful
Legendary
His body-language depicts the music! Like he is dancing the music inside!
Thank you Maestro Sanderling!
Time to quit listening to critics that say Beethoven was better at writing symphonies with odd numbers. I listened many times to 3,5,7 and of course the Ninth, but 6,8 and now the Fourth are beautiful. What a fantastic performance in a great setting.
4 and 8 are great, but 6 is my favorite of them all, and has been for 52 years.
Nobody gets close to this version of this concerto. I heard it from many other pianists, but there is nothing to say: Martha is Martha. She is a master of the pedal and piano and virtuosic, with passion and emotion in her playing. THE SOUND IS SO POWERFUL AND EMOTIONAL WITH MARTHA. SHE ENCAPSULATES LISZT SOUL. And 19:34 what else left to say. Her tempo is always amazingly uncontrollable

in the first mvmt. they play before, on, and after the beat, in close sequence. 😂
how i enjoy watching him conduct
Enjoyed the performance on an antique Steinway.
I am sorry, but this is not an antique Steinway. Except for the fact that it has 85 keys instead of today's 88 keys, this piano is a modern Steinway in every regard.
@OE1FEU Sorry for my falsity, truly excellent piano playing, thank you for sharing.
Были ж времена - такие концерты в ходили в нормальный "ритм" ТВ-трансляций... До чего ж хорош исполнитель.
Is there any way to download this recording as a high quality file ?
I've listened to most 4th symphony versions, this one is the best.. plus watching Carlos conducting is a thing of beauty...
La gestualità dentro la musica ed elegante di Klaiber.Niente di superfluo,niente di macchinoso,tutto viene filtrato da una musicalità viva esaltante,contagiosa,rigorosa ,ma gioiosa,.un gesto cosi' espressivo e poeticamente elegante, che disegna la musica non ha eguali.!!! ALTRO CHE CERTI "DIRETTORI" DI OGGI,CHE STAREBBERO BENE ALLO ZOO...!! E LE "DIRETTRICI".....?
Kleiber es un Director magnífico!! La Obra maravillosa!! Genial interpretación!! Qué hermosura!!! Muchas gracias 😂!!!!
Did Bolet play on Baldwin pianos a lot? They suit him.

Historic 🙏
Beautiful! So expressive and musical. You play from the heart.
Your neighbors should consider themselves privileged to hear such beautiful music
I am fortunate to have become the owner of a Model IV built 1900. Sold by the London Bechstein dealer and has been in the US for at least several decades. Mahogany case. Restored (year unknown). I was amazed upon hearing the unique " european " sound/overtones/ resonance that I have heard from Bechstein/ Bosendorfer etc in the UK , Germany, Austria. I wrongly attributed this difference to room/ concert hall acoustics or possible tuning or voicing by EU technicians. Other makers, including Steinway now sound comparatively harsh or weak, especially in higher registers. The action is light and very responsive. It is way above my grade/level but has inspired me to, one day, deserve this masterpiece.
If the London dealer is JS then you have a factory rebuilt piano with all its innards replaced with modern material, from action, hammers, felt to polyester finish. Mine is a true restoration with all parts original including the tied action and a shellac finish.
@@OE1FEU I know only that it was originally sold new in London -
Beautiful playing 🎉
👏Nice one. Great video , as always
Thank you! Yes. Carlos Kleiber.
indeed the most outstanding conductor of all times... his human and empathetic connection with the orchestra is unequalled
CELIBIDACHE is the best of all times. don t forget that.
this guy conducted EVERYTHING too fast. Celubidache is the best. another level.
Kleiber's Beethoven was perfect.
