It's wonderful to see a video of this magnificent symphony on YouTube, even if it's only the finale! The performance is pretty good, too. I prefer the ending a bit slower, which makes it sound a bit more grand and powerful to me, but it's still well-played. I've never been able to watch the timpani duel (~6min. in) on video before - very impressive. Thanks for uploading this! I've wanted to see this on video for a while!

Thanks for posting this. Nielsen is by far my favorite composer! I always like seeing/hearing recordings that I don't have!

I've had the pleasure of attending Minnesota Orchestra concerts with Osmo Vanska on the podium. He and the Minnesotans are making great music together. That was one thrilling video! Thanks for posting it.

Have you heard of Bryden Thomson's version on Chandos? I've heard both versions, I thought Thomson's version have brought out the very soul of the music... ^_^

Thanks for posting. I love this piece. I had the pleasure of seeing the Minnesota Orchestra play this (under Osmo) in 2004. It was such a moving performance, I was in tears at the end and I don't think anyone made a sound for about 15 seconds after the final cutoff. Everyone had to let it sink in. Truly amazing.

This is total music in tune with the lifeforce. Its mantic stuff, you can watch the plants push up to the sun and the elemental forces in gothic mode, but no less potent for that.
