Kleiber prefered the Bavarians and disowned the Vienna. He complained that they did not understand him really. Of course they play beautiful but not with the expression and risk Kleiber wanted.

For me both versions are excellent, the Bavarian-Version ist softer - the Philharmonic-Version more powerful!Greetings from Austria!

I vastly prefer the Vien Philharmonic over Bavarian. They have more expression, are more flexible, more colorful, and are far more responsive to what Kleiber wants. The Vienna Philharmonic never sounds as if it's just "reading notes".

Which version do you think is better - Bavarian State Orechestra or Vien Philharmonics?

A quote from Albrecht Mayer, the solo oboe of the Berlin Philharmonic, that might be worth considering, abine25: "We don't need a conductor to beat time and give cues...we need him to inspire us..." Kleiber is conducting the MUSIC, not the beats and cues.

The video is a bit out of sync. And the real question is: how do you conduct an orchestra that doesn't need one? You conduct precisely what you want to bring out of an already great texture...btw it also helps that they had rehearsed two weeks! on music they already know like the back of their hand.

he's not even conducting at some points lol

his conducting is so hard to follow, imagine being in the orchestra
