I am not very fond of Tchaikovsky, but I attended the 6th with Petrenko and must say: this concert is still in my head, esp. the ending, the basses, the silence. One of the most intense evenings I´ve ever had in the Philharmonie.

“It’s perfectly possible we’ll go on a journey with him that’s never existed before.” What an awesome statement!

After a long period of boredom the orchestra was longing for a new challenge and found it with Petrenko. After the first concerts it is crystal clear that we experience a new king of love between musicians and their leader, they give to each other their utmost craft and the result is spectacular. I can´t wait for the many years to come with this wonderful unison of passion and discipline and as a proud Berliner I can´t also wait until everybody agrees upon that the Berlin Philharmonics are not in the top 3 of the best orchestras in the world but are without a doubt the best.

Ich bin durchgeschüttelt! Und fühle mich derart abgeholt zum einen von den Worten der einzelnen Musiker und auch dem, was von Petrenko zu sehen und zu hören ist, dass ich es nicht vermag, in Worte zu fassen. Dieser Mann ist die Liebe. Durch und durch. Zur Musik und zu den Menschen.

That horn swell of Strauss’s Don Juan always has me. Good luck Mr Petrenko Thank you, Mr Rattle 💜

Wow! something hot is happening with the Berlin Phil. I must get over to Berlin pronto to hear this amazing man. Do you know? the BPO have NOT sounded like the BPO of old for many years, but......! I can hear the BPO sounding as they did of old!! may heaven be praised, I thought that Berlin sound had gone forever. Manifestly, IT HAS NOT!!! Bravo.

One of the Greatest Orchestras of all time unites with one of the most emotional conductors. A real brilliant video.That Scriabin performance at the end was rocking! Regards from India🇮🇳

Excellent

Petrenko: Marvellous, awesome performance!!

The Karajan era people just have to mention his name. His influence is still there somehow after all these years

I just really hope that Petrenko keeps giving 20th century/contemporary music its place with the orchestra, as Rattle was doing.

In describing the influence of Furtwängler on the BPO, the timpanist in the orchestra said, in an interview decades ago, that on one occasion when the orchestra was rehearsing, when the timpanist was studying the score because the music did not at that time call upon him to be playing, he suddenly heard the sound (der Klang) of the orchestra change. He looked up and saw that Furtwängler had just entered the room. Furtwängler's mere presence changed the way the orchestra played. So the impact of Petrenko on the current BPO, described in this video, is not without precedent.

Travelled to Berlin on 24th of August 2019 to see him and the BPO do their thing in front of the Brandenburger Tor. Absolutely brilliant! A night to remember.

Man, why am I just seeing such an amazing conductor? I am ready for some live performances. Look forward to see some of his performances. I am a fan!

A great conducteur for a great orchestra.

Usually I think conductors are selfish, egotistical scumbags. But he is not. And is a great, empathetic, sensitive artist like no one else in our days. I applaud his search for depth with effortless originality and saw that the first time I heard him conduct. What a hero!

This conductor is SO INTENSE!!!!!

At 8:54, I swear I hear a choir, but it's just the orchestra. Amazing, truly.

Durfte das Antrittskonzert live in der Philharmonie erleben, es war eine unglaubliche Energie, ein Flirren im Saal. Beethoven 9 war vom Zugriff sehr aggressiv, rauh, habe ich so noch nie gehört. Hatte aber auch Gänsehaut-Momente. Wir müssen jetzt leider Geduld haben, es muss wachsen, intuitiv werden. Und meine Dosis Karajan hole ich mir sowieso.... :-)

Das raue, aggressive tut Beethoven für mein Verständnis unglaublich gut. Petrenkos Sicht auf Mahler ist für manche verstörend, für mich ein neues Gesetz. Natürlich hat Abbado weiterhin Gültigkeit für mich, in seiner Sehnsucht nach dem Humanen in der Musik. Das ist für Petrenko nicht das Maß, er denkt die Werke völlig anders und heraus kommt etwas, das verblüfft.

Engenho, arte e coração = música.!! Magnífico!!

Can't wait!

Love from Mexico I'm so excited for this new chapter of the BPO and a new beautiful journey with Maestro Petrenko and every musician 🌹✨

Love it! My favorite city in Europe, Berlin, deserves nothing less than this genius conductor! Fantastic!

One rather reach for 11 with the possibility of falling to 1, than always sit comfortably at 8. He sounds like a great leader, team mate & artist that respects the heritage of the orchestra while daring to push it to new heights. I'm moving to Berlin it would be an honour to see his secret goal come to fruition & witness the development of Berlin Philharmoniker's new signature sound.

And Rattle was, to a great extent, a breeze of fresh air back in the day. Also, do not forget that, unlike many other orchestras, the chief conductor is chosen by the BPO musicians, and that gives a different copping between parts. But Rattle and Petrenko are, in many ways, very distinct. Rattle is very communicative. He is quite energic and has this quite marked media profile. He likes to shine from himself. Looking behind, that helped BPO regaining some space in mainstream media and capitalize it. Kyrill is, in many senses, the opposite. He has this shy-type profile that may actually fit quite well, given the moment that BPO is passing right now. Rather than having a conductor that it was also the PR guy, now they are selling the image of the shy young and bright talent, with overwhelming energy and passion that, apparently, likes to shine through the brilliance of the work within the orchestra (not "with" the orchestra). He immerses in the group, blends in and they explode together. To me, it seems a somewhat very emotional, dramatic and powerful experience. Something not that common. If this is going to be the tone, it will be emotionally quite demanding to all the musicians. And a hell of a ride. Seems to me that, in the coming times, I'm going to see Berlin more often! This brought to my mind Celibidache. I would love to see what he would comment :D

Very difficult to understand what this all means. Time will tell, I guess. There is definitely something to the notion of the orchestra recovering its old sound. The proliferation of this new “international sound” has not been good for music. The great orchestras increasingly sound the same. 50 years ago the listener immediately recognized the Berliner Philharmoniker. What we may have gained in virtuosity or ensemble playing we have lost in tone color and style.

The professors don’t teach it, the orchestras don’t play it, the imported musicians don’t hear it, and the conductors rarely ask for it. The new international orchestras sound technically great, at the expense of style and expression. Who could have imagined this 75 years ago? Only the Viennese have managed to hold on to some of the old ways.

Dare I go there? Kirill Petrenko is a 21st century Leonard Bernstein as they both possessed a similar Russian and Jewish ethnicity. But whereas Lenny came by way of immigrants in cosmopolitan New York City, Kirill was steeped early on in the Russian life and death struggle with the extreme cold manifested in the frozen southwest Siberia of his youth. I think these factors provide a glimpse into understanding the immediacy of Petrenko's musical communication.

It is far too early to judge Petrenko and the BSO. Petrenko is the opposite of Karajan as a conductor (and a person), and everyone regarded the Karajan BSO to epitomize the BSO sound. We'll wait and watch and listen and not leap to premature conclusions.

El fantasma de Karajan sigue rondando el escenario de la Philharmonie y poseyendo a sus directores... Una lástima que traten imitarle quedándose en mero envoltorio sin contenido. Veamos que puede hacer el señor Petrenko.

What do they brought to the piece, What have they, conductor and musicians, achieved? Was it just another brilliantly technical performance? Or was it something else? Did he manage to deliver to me, the listener, a new depth in this piece which I had already heard a fair number of versions/occasions? If the BPO musicians feel that much, and deliver that much, due to his work and style, then it is with great pleasure that I will seem them being divine. They are the ones entitled to evaluate the capabilities, the work and the style of the conductor. I will not go there to just watch some sort of reserved control freak exercising his power over the orchestra.
