Nessun Dorma (Pavarotti, NY 1980)
Posted by: medpiano
Video duration: 180 seconds
Luciano Pavarotti singing from a concert in January 1980 with the NY Philharmonic cond. by Zubin Mehta. Compare this performance with other (later) dates; Pavarotti here is clearly still in absolute total command. This was part of the "Live from Lincoln Center" 30th anniversary special.

Barenboim conducting the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in a stellar performance of Tchaikovsky's 4th Symphony in F minor for the opening concert of Carnegie Hall's 1997 season. Yes, that is the legendary Bud Herseth marshalling the CSO's incredible brass.

Berezovsky plays Islamey
Posted by: medpiano
Video duration: 454 seconds
From a 2005 recital in Mexico City. This exact performance became my new "Islamey" standard. I already had one from Boris on CD; this one surpasses it in both musicality, spontaneity, and brilliance.

MTT- Tchaikovsky Symphony No.4, 4th mvmt
Posted by: medpiano
Video duration: 566 seconds
Michael Tilson Thomas conducting the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra in a very high-powered 4th movement of Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 4 in F minor.
Compare this with Barenboim's version also on my channel, and you'll see two excellent performances, similarly high energy levels, but very different styles of conducting.

Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 4, 1st mvmt (2nd half)
Posted by: medpiano
Video duration: 520 seconds
Barenboim conducting the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in a stellar performance of Tchaikovsky's 4th Symphony in F minor for the opening concert of Carnegie Hall's 1997 season. Barenboim has full control here, especially at the end, taking the repeated section (7:14) first meno mosso, then stringendo--incredib le!!! (Yes, that is the legendary Bud Herseth marshalling the CSO's incredible brass).
