The late Colin Davis was one of my favorite, perhaps "the" favorite of contemporary conductors, for me. He used to guest conduct the Boston Symphony Orchestra decades ago when Seiji Ozawa was Music Director and the principal conductor, and Ozawa was excellent, but the exquisite Colin Davis was so elegant and the best. Probably I heard him conduct , as I sat in the balcony, Mozart or someone who required a refined manner interpretation, just as here with Elgar. All I can say is that I was in the right place at the right time to hear Colin Davis live more than once. (So interesting to watch his understated manner here in this video. That's exactly how I remember him so many years ago - and the sense that he was delivering a performance close to what was intended by the composer.)

Considered to be one of the most melodic songs to be created. A person can interpret its meaning in so many ways which makes variations unique to the listener. There is hope, light, mystery and death. Yet, from death comes resurrection into the light once more. One could say that even the resurrection itself mirrors the universe and combines everything else into one opus such as this gem gives us. An incredible performance by the orchestra along with long time conductor Sir Colin Davis. A beautiful piece which will remain as timeless as our limitless imaginations can be.

Muy acertado comentario. Esta página musical es de muy difícil interpretación, por la dimensión espiritual contenida en ella. Son muchas las veces que la he escuchado, tocado y dirigido y no se logra el fin deseado. Es casi milagroso cuando esto sucede, como es el caso aquí, porque aunque el director tiene el peso de la experiencia, por su gestualidad tengo que hacer las paces que son el cariño y el respeto por esta música de parte de los músicos los elementos que lograron que esta orquesta (que no se nos da el nombre) realizara el milagro que hemos escuchado aquí.

Thank you, it doesn't say here
Glorious, simply glorious. Discovered too late. Why didn't I know about this treasure?
Glad the Applause was left in. Never understood why so many videos tend to delete the Applause that's so vital.
Edward Elgar ... the most British of all composers ... wonderful music !
Sir Colin is stretching the strings and time itself here. It is beyond lovely to me. It is the majesty of a young child discovering both the joy of a beach and the loss of a sibling. How can these two emotions go together at the same time? Only Elgar knew. And now we all do.
Esta es una de la elegías musicales más hermosas que se han compuesto. Encierra la melancolía de las grandes cosas que hemos ido perdiendo en la vida.Tiene la grandeza de un ocaso, mientras el sol se hunde en el mar... Gracias, en la eternidad, Sir Colin Davis...
There is something so wonderfully heart warming and welcoming that I feel when I listen to this! Absolutely amazing
This is my favorite interpretation of this masterpiece. No words to describe it. ❤️
Always brings me to tears!
A sublime and moving piece of work that brings a tear to the eye to those who have known human suffering and loss. A classic of English music from Elgar superbly played here.
this is being played at my sister in laws funeral in 10 days time the most moving and Sir Colin Davis is THE guy !!
Such emotion. A privilege to have heard such moving music at the Albert Hall, Proms 1994, the Queen attending.
One of the most beautiful pieces I have ever heard.... outstanding performance!
I have to say it, this is the most perfect version - what a kindly, lovely, ineffable performance! Thank You!
It always sends a shiver when i hear this piece of music captures emotions so well
never in the field of human conflict has so much owed, by so many to so few….
This song is just so incredible and full of hope. I can’t quite describe it.

@@sarahjones-jf4pr it's not a 'song' and it's not a symphony. It's the Nimrod variation from the Enigma Variations, and tribute to his dear friend Jaeger, his publisher. Jaeger is German for 'hunter'....Nimrod was 'the mighty hunter' , and this is Elgar's tribute to him
this was played at my father`s funeral 7 years ago, still makes me cry.
Velice krásná část, motiv připomíná trochu styl volných vět velkých koncertů Ludwiga van Beethovena. Jemně, citlivě a přitom velice precizně podáno. Děkuji za nahrávku a srdečně zdravím z České republiky, oblasti města Rakovník. ✋
God Save Her Majesty The Queen! Rest in Peace Your Majesty!
The finest version I've had the pleasure to listen to.
RIP Sir C. Davis. My favorite Sibelius conductor.
What a great rendition.
Perfection - he understands the broadening of tempo doesn’t come until later

👆🏿 usually don’t appreciate the hubris of customizing one’s own interpretation of tempo, that said, unlike Bernstein’s dreadful leisurely rendition, Sir Edward’s slightly more stately tempo is brilliant and tastefully done. Bravo!
Bravi, Sir Colin! The greatest YT video of Nimrod so far

Agreed
These guys are so tight. Deeply moving and I don't give a damn what flag you're waving.
Sublime. Just sublime. How can sound waves reduce me to tears?
Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful piece of music by Edward Elgar. Every time I listen to this I get goosebumps.
GREAT, slow like Bernstein, VERY MOVING.
Listening to this on Remembrance Sunday, #LessWeForget
Majestic, ethereal, fabulous
La mejor versión de esta pieza maestra. Cada nota tiene su tiempo justo y preciso para respirar y expresar la de emoción que debe expresar. No hay prisa, tampoco letanía. Todo es armonía y emoción. Sublime.

Muy acertado comentario. Esta página musical es de muy difícil interpretación, por la dimensión espiritual contenida en ella. Son muchas las veces que la he escuchado, tocado y dirigido y no se logra el fin deseado. Es casi milagroso cuando esto sucede, como es el caso aquí, porque aunque el director tiene el peso de la experiencia, por su gestualidad tengo que hacer las paces que son el cariño y el respeto por esta música de parte de los músicos los elementos que lograron que esta orquesta (que no se nos da el nombre) realizara el milagro que hemos escuchado aquí.
Such a great version. When this movement is played separate from the rest of the variations (most often as a memorial piece), it is often taken a little slower. But this seems to be the perfect tempo for this.
Cascade of consolation conveyed by Sir Colin Davis
one of the best performances I have ever heard!!!
So majestic and eloquent! My favorite!
Elgar was a patron at my school, Alice Ottley.Worcester 🌹
I seem to get something in my eye every time I listen to this
一聴して、音楽の世界に引き込まれて行きました❤ 素晴らしい世界を描き出していますね😊 素敵な動画ありがとうございます!
Wow absolutely stunning!
the most beautiful piece of music on earth
No did this better than Colin. Not rushed. Just right.

100% true! I could watch only him conducting this piece over and over again. Beautiful, those calm big gestures supporting those long lines of the melody. Speechless, tears in my eyes...
Wonderful
Such a beautiful piece that always reminds me of the Proms!
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.
My father would watch this on Remembrance Day in total silence with a tear in his eye as he thought of his comrades who didn’t get that chance
A wonderful experience and moving
There are many excellent performances of this beautiful piece, but I think this perhaps the very best of them. Does anyone know where and when it's from?
Bellissima interpretazione di Colin Davis, grandiosa e commovente!
Fantastique legato in the strings throughout the whole piece!
This piece brings me to tears
Marvelous, simply marvelous, absolutely imperial...
Warm thanks and greetings from Sweden!
Sempre bellissimo e toccante
Magnificent
Tío Josele no era miembro propiamente de este grupo, pero era un entusiasta de todos mis modestos logros. Por eso, y yo me entiendo, ésta VA POR ÉL. Y aunque la Cruz de Guia del Gran Poder no lleve altavoces (lo que faltaba, ya sé!) , hoy sé que tiene esta pieza como música de fondo. Soy músico, y el lo entendería. Ay su sobrino postizo! Hasta siempre, Tito. Homenaje a José María Lacave de Aspe.
Beautiful
Una delle versioni migliori. Colin Davis ne interpreta alla perfezione dinamiche e tempo.
何と感情豊かな演奏なのだろう。心に秘めた思いが伝わるような。
Elgar ... a great British composer ...
Bravo!
Touches the heart
Awe inspiring...perfect ..
Edgar, what can I say Brilliant !
Peace before Prince Philip funeral.
Magnifique musique.
