Messiaen: Oiseaux exotiques / Uchida · Rattle · Berliner Philharmoniker

I had honestly never listened to this piece... So worth a second look. His ornithological inclusions are so brilliant!

This piece is fantastic. This performance, I think, is a great starting ground for discussing the standard of soloist memorization.
I think it's optional, and clearly, you can play well with a score!!!

I love this piece. One of these days I learn this.

Good piece, dreadful performance.

Delicate, minute performance!!

That Eflat player (whom I don't recognize) is one of the oiseaux exotiques. Fantastic!

Who's playing E-flat clarinet in this recording? He's fantastic!

i can't sense the music!

What's so musical about this piece?!

Brilliant!

This brings back memories of when I played 1st clarinet in this piece in L.A. 40 years ago. I really had the sense of being a bird; the bird calls are very ornithologically accurate - Messiaen was actually a serious ornithologist. Totally unique piece - nothing like it, except maybe a few other pieces by Messiaen.

Ich kann diese Musik nicht ernstnehmen..

this sounds quite terrible.

I’ve never seen such a interesting orchestra scene

The conducting is very simple

Does anyone know what xylophone mallets are used?

this music is a crime against humanity.

Dodecaphonic ?

Her Debussy shows her fine imagination and colorpalette . I hope she'll give us some if not all "Vingt Regards " Its amazing she got G to record the Schonberg concerto ! I hope 10,000 libraries and universities got it ! Boulez Sonatas (No.2 if not no.3 ) would really add to her German repertoire ! S he is an incredible musician !

What the f**k

needs more cowbell

A keyboard glockenspiel? That's certainly not to be a case.
