Beethoven, Bruno Walter, Columbia Symphony Orchestra - Beethoven Symphonies No 4 In B Flat Major No 5 in C Minor
Review by Alessandro Castagna
The album Beethoven Symphonies No 4 In B Flat Major No 5 in C Minor by Beethoven, Bruno Walter, Columbia Symphony Orchestra is a stunning masterpiece that showcases the brilliance of one of the greatest composers of all time. The album features two of Beethoven's most iconic symphonies, performed by the renowned Columbia Symphony Orchestra under the baton of legendary conductor Bruno Walter.
The album opens with Symphony No. 4 in B flat major, a work that is often overlooked but is no less impressive than Beethoven's other symphonies. The orchestra's performance is impeccable, with each instrument contributing to a rich and layered sound that is both powerful and delicate. The second movement is particularly stunning, with its hauntingly beautiful melody played by the strings.
The album's centerpiece is Symphony No. 5 in C minor, arguably Beethoven's most famous work. The orchestra's interpretation is masterful, capturing the intense drama and emotional depth of the piece. The iconic opening motif is played with precision and power, setting the tone for the rest of the symphony. The third movement is particularly impressive, with the orchestra's skillful use of dynamics creating a sense of tension and release that is truly captivating.
Throughout the album, Bruno Walter's conducting is exemplary, bringing out the nuances and subtleties of Beethoven's music with great skill and sensitivity. The recording quality is also excellent, capturing the full range and depth of the orchestra's sound.

About Beethoven, Bruno Walter, Columbia Symphony Orchestra
German composer and pianist, born in 1770 (baptized 17 December 1770) in Bonn, Germany and died 26 March 1827 in Vienna, Austria.
A crucial figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras in classical music. Beethoven led Viennese Classicism to its highest development and paved the way for Romantic music.
Beethoven was the eldest son of a singer in the Kapelle of the Archbishop-Elector of Cologne and grandson of the Archbishop's Kapellmeister. He moved in 1792 to Vienna, where he had some lessons from Haydn and others, quickly establishing himself as a remarkable keyboard-player and original composer. By 1815 increasing deafness made public performance impossible and accentuated existing eccentricities of character, patiently tolerated by a series of rich patrons and his royal pupil the Archduke Rudolph.
Beethoven did much to enlarge the possibilities of music and widen the horizons of later generations of composers. To his contemporaries he was sometimes a controversial figure, making heavy demands on listeners both by the length and by the complexity of his writing, as he explored new fields of music.

There is a recording of the rehearsal for the 5th with the Columbia Symphony. Just adds to the pleasure of this performance.Bruno was tops.
Still the best version of the Ludwig V I've ever heard. So much great bass. So many chills. From @ on is just...you can't stop listening. Bravo Bruno,
Had a chance to see his house in Beverly Hills...
Bruno Walter is the best interpreter of Beethoven forever.
Bruno Walter não apenas arrasou, como equacionalisou! Ludwig choraria, arrepiado...
__ Bravo, Bruno Bravíssimo!
__ Bravo, Bruno Bravíssimo!
A favorite version of mine of this piece. I also do like the slight pause in the first movement at about the 5:32 mark.
my first time to hear this symphony without repeating the exposition of the 1st mvt.
My favorite version. Not rushed. Clear and well defined. Thank you for posting.
Versión poco ajustada de esta obra, omite da capo del ler. movimiento, y carece de la dinámica necesaria para los tres primeros movimientos.- La textura es más Wagneriana que Beethoveniana.-
first carlos kleiber, second walter, third furtwangler thank you for posting this . i heard first time since 1978
Still by far my favorite version of the 5th Symphony by Beethoven. The pace and timing are not typical of most conductors and it has always been more elegant and powerful, at least to me, because of this. My father used to listen to the original vinyl of this disc practically every week when I was a child, and I memorized this symphony by the time I was 12 years old because of it. Time well spent. THANK YOU for posting this!
Sin ninguna duda, para mi la mas notable de las versiones de la Quinta. Lamentablemente, me ya no poseo la versión de vinilo, escuchada hasta el infinito, y que guardo con cariño en mi memoria y mi corazón desde mi juventud.
