Lockdown Commission #5 - Martyn Brabbins ' Matchless Space'
มุมมอง 2.7K4 ปีที่แล้ว
I was inspired to write “Matchless Space” by the truly matchless viola playing of Lawrence Power, with whom I have enjoyed a long and fruitful musical friendship. Frank Matcham’s masterpiece, the London Coliseum, is without a doubt a matchless theatrical jewel. The music was conceived in such a way that the glorious sound and creative musicianship of Lawrence would fill the quiet empty space of...

perfect
Just incredible. I have the same sound as you. i'll never be able to have "that" you do. Thank you
Wow L.Power !❤🎉 Amazing violist and musician !
He is right about the accents in that dialogue as a dance! Thank you ❤
Lawrence Power is an inspiration ❤
Polish violin school is amazing!❤
The folclorical passages reflect the romanian music from Transilvania ❤ I recognize the music of my country. His best inspiration was romanian music from Transilvania. He was born in a city where he heard this kind of music ❤ and he integrated in his being.
❤brava.
Deep and emotional , what a composition, what a performance! Thankyou. ❤
Love these (as an enthusiastic but not serious amateur violist). # 10 on the way?
Wow
Fuck yeah
You have amazing tone. I think a lot of people play the viola like it should sound like a violin when it should probably sound more like a cello. Bravo!
I like when the viola sound like a viola! Mr. Power is a very good example of how the viola can have its own personality, full of unique colors that neither the violin or the cello can produce.
Are those things up in the cornerd bass traps?
No, they are Quad ESL 57 electrostatic loudspeakers given to the composer by the late Peter Walker OBE, founder of QUAD Electroacoustics, Huntingdon, Cambs.
What a great sound! A grinding rhythm and full-voiced melodies too. It’s great to come away thinking “Viola is King”
An early christmas present. Great to see and hear the varied acoustic settings in this series…
Wonderful! I think that sensational waves go up and down...Very interesting!!!

A biography I am reading by Dabid Matthews states Britten wrote this the day he returned home after completing studies at the Royal College of Music to which he received a scholarship - calling the "modernist" piece "unrelentingly atonal" and speculating "what private thoughts the prodigious 16-year-old had while playing to himself". Genius, indeed. I got hooked as a young person after hearing A Ceremony of Carols on the classical radio station long ago. Excellent performance here!
Why did this make me cry? of all the things that could do it, why this?
THE absolute finest rendition of the Bridge "Lament" on youtube!
Grato.
Wonderful class, as always. (I hope future editors get the idea that audience view filming is perfect, no need to have multiple cameras and zooming in, which disturbs our attention. Sure, it might be useful for editing, but please avoid)
Looking forward to hearing the Viola Concerto
It wasn't performed at the Proms unfortunately.
i love your sound! what strings do you use?
Those are evah golds (by the black and yellow winding)
Just brilliant !!
Why this /bizarre/ tremolo?
Vibrato
It’s not tremolo it’s really rich, intense vibrato
Bravissimi
Personally I think this is a superb demonstration of confident artistry by courageous humans working their socks off to continue to be active and expressive musicians and people rather than sit around complaining during a difficult and vulnerable period of recent world history. I love it - thank you, brave colleagues!
impresionado por la viola, Britten y Lawrence... (Qué complejo mundo interior).
Excellent
this deserves so much more attention
....aaaand get ready for nonsense at 6:27.
I dont think he's using his Brensi here. Philip Ihle made a copy for him so he's more likely using that one
Gorgeous playing and recording. Do you happen to know what mic Brett Cox used? Sound lovely - spacious and detailed.
Good piece❕
Captivating Performance of Britten. Compliments! Viola Forever | To discover | Pas de Deux Theme for Piano & Viola | th-cam.com/video/9ffdK_N8FWQ/w-d-xo.html
Any way I can get my hands on that Bowen? It's beautiful
Genius the composer and Super "Power" 🎶🎻
Wonderful 🎵📹
Wowww🔥🔥🔥
Viola abuse!
I know why I love and why I play viola.
I am so scared that the strings might snap ;-; Amazing play tho!! I want to learn how to play the viola, you inspire me.

This is what Juice have done to our music. We’ve gone from Wagner and Brahms to this pretentious trash. Maybe western civilization doesn’t deserve to survive if this is what we now pawn off as music.
Yes, this was... um... I just can't listen to it as a musician myself. I actually made a parody of these lockdown commissions if you care to take a look at it on my channel. It's utter bollocks and I just made it up on the spot to point out how ridiculous the whole idea is. th-cam.com/video/f63fuM-3rmA/w-d-xo.html
People felt the same of Stravinsky, Miles, and countless other musical greats.
Add Webern, Bartok, Messiaen and Penderecki to the list. If you don't like it, fine. Then it's not your style. Wouldn't call it a call to end mankind. Chill, daddy-o.
I love how creative these lockdown commissions have gotten. Listening to this one was like an eerie but beautiful dream
WOW 😱😱😱😱 I’m amazed with you incredible skills 🙌🏼 Great performance 🔥 I’m mind blown 🤯
Superb playing, inspirational!
