Couldn't agree more with all of you. If I were to explain the essence of a fugue this would be perfect. And then it's Bach of course. Does not get any better.

Chaque fois que la musique de Bach est reprise avec un autre ou d’autres instruments que celui prévu à l’origine cela fait ressortir de façon renouvelée le génie du Maître qui parvient à rendre très agréable à l’oreille un exercice, le contrepoint, qui est en même temps un plaisir intellectuel.

It took me 10 seconds to realize this was not a real quartet. I was thinking how did anybody find four recorder players that looked the same. I now realize the the cheap music stand has the left diagonal bent the same way for all four players. BTW, this is excellent sound engineering. I really appreciate that.
I played these instruments for 16 years. It takes a great amount of air to move a note in the Great Bass and the Contra Bass. Mainly I played the Bass. I never Played the tenor. Unfortunately I developed a breathing issue and can no longer carry a phrase on these instruments. 😢
Thank you! Your arrangement is a lot more fun to listen to than to hear it played on an organ, which I've always enjoyed. I just can't stop listening over and over again.
I loved playing in our Renaissance Collegium at college. Having the largest hands, I often played the bass recorder as well as krumhorns and shawm. You just reminded me that I transcribed some piece of music into something for two tenor recorders and bass. The sound was beautiful. I never knew there was a double bass recorder. Thanks for this gorgeous piece.
JS Bach Had many, many children All day long they played with each other All day long they fought with each other Till they drove their mother very very mad An elementary school music teacher taught me those lyrics to go with this melody in the 80s, and man has it stuck with me.
Nice recording! I like the balance of instruments and room. Sweet performance, with warmth of breath and wood. Thanks for sharing a Bach fuge. Greetings from Cologne Germany.
One of my favorite Bach fugues! This is an especially lovely rendition as the room in which it is played loves the tones and overtones of the recorders. Bravo!!!!!
Bach was a master inventor of beautiful sound constructions that continue to create magic whenever these compositions are expressed! This is absolutely lovely- thank you to all who made it possible for me to see and heat this today🩵
That brought back some memories. I played tenor and occasionally sopranino) in a recorder ensemble ( we had a full set, up to the bass) when I was young bloke, but I didn't carry it on. I sometimes with I had, I loved that instrument. We never played this, but quite a number of other Bach pieces, and we also did some chamber stuff with a small string ensemble as well. You're much better than I ever was!
Many years ago my sister learned words to the this. Taught them to me and I have never forgotten them! “Mr. Bach wrote several tunes that sound like this: organ sonatas, fugues, cantatas and heaven knows which is which!
Oh! omg I always secretly hoped for like James×4 in a natural church/chapel setting. The visuals, your multiplied musicianship, and dear god the acoustics... so pure. 😊🙏 [PS thank you for (leaving in) the key clicks, imo they are a subtle beautiful part of Baroque woodwind performances]
The acoustics aren't from the chapel though, the audio is recorded elsewhere and the echo is added in post. You can see in some places that the audio doesn't match the video
Years ago but I have to thank you. I found the recording by chance and after the initial surprise, I was soothed. I had a bad day (I am a trauma psychologist with the police) but you made me feel better. Bach, isn't my thing to be honest, he is too mathematical in his build of music, to me. This was lovely, thank you.
I heard this while listening to an organ student practicing in my church. I was twelve and this was my first time hearing the music of the Man from Eisenach.
Thank you for this. I find that there are not too many videos on TH-cam featuring recorders so it's great to see and hear such a beautiful piece. I used to play soprano and bass in my youth but lung problems have put paid to that now. I no longer have my bass but came upon one of my soprano recently. I still have my small CD collection of wonderful music and musicians. Thank you once again.
The wee instrument played but one trill, and it was lovely; not especially frantic but a more graced trill over the bar. That's good art. That bit at the very end, I believe, is a mordent. That'll always be my favorite fugue. Nicely done, especially considering those huge logs the two of you are huffing into. Just wow. That you have THAT much air to huff.
Estoy impresionado con tan bella música, y esos instrumentos que jamás había visto dos de ellos, y lo más impresionante es que es el mismo intérprete tocando los cuatro instrumentos, tengo una gran curiosidad por saber cómo fue grabado este video.
What a beautiful piece, so well played. The recorder is such an underrated instrument; but in the hands of someone skilled in it's use, the effect can be magical.
I just can't believe I just found out about you. Since my first comment I listened to your Back album several times. What an achievement - and most importantly - that you for all your time and efforts in that project. It was worth it - you made many people happy with it.
Fascinating. I noticed the sounds produced with the fingering, as well as a little hiss in spots before the recorder speaks. A tracker organ would also have sounds, but from its mechanical action.
I was listening to this again today. You are so talented Jinook. I'm sorry that you quit performing. 😢 I don't play much ocarina now too but my quitting is not a big loss to the ocarina community. 😅
Sehr, sehr schön! Zuerst dachte ich, es spielt eine Person nacheinander. Und dann wurde es digital zusammengefasst. Gibt es ja. Diese Fuge habe ich vor 40 Jahren im Studium auch gespielt. In Deutschland hat dieses Thema den Beinamen / Nickname: "Ich habe Bachweh". Grüße aus Bremen

Sounds so different If it's not 28 first graders with the soprano recorder! 😂
FABULOUS performance. Bravo. I first discovered this fugue at the age of 15 and have exercised my brain with it up to this age of 84. Thanks very much
You beat me. I’m 83, and recall first hearing this fugue in concert when I was 19.
First heard this piece through Leopold Stokowski’s transcriptions for full orchestra. That orchestral version was beautiful.
i think i first heard this around age 13.... though that was only about 42 years ago :)
Couldn't agree more with all of you. If I were to explain the essence of a fugue this would be perfect. And then it's Bach of course. Does not get any better.
Is this from one of the Brandeburg Concertos or reworked from aspects of a couple of them ?
It appears the algorithm has decided now is the time the world needs to see and hear this. And I’m glad !

It's fascinating how this is essentially a deconstructed organ!
...which is, essentially, a bunch of pipes!
...which is far better than a piping bunch...
I'd call it a "distributed" organ
Yes, but you’d need four hands to play it.
@@charlesbrowne9590 ...or a musically talented octopus
Bach is literally super cool and gorgeous and intellectually stimulating all at once..
Nicely stated. I completely agree. Bach is musical perfection.
Замечательное исполнение. Спасибо квартету деревянных духовых инструментов.

Never knew there were such low bass Recorders. Awesome arrangement. Bach was amazing.
There are even recorders much larger and lower than that!
@@organist1982 As a Tuba player I am aware of the lung power needed. Even more so it would seem for a wind instrument. I have seen in person a Bass Recordrer, it resembled a Table Leg. I just enjoy playing my Alto and Soprano's.
The recorders are tenor in c', bass in f, great bass in c and (renaissance) sub bass in F.
@@THyperon I can only imagine the lung power needed to produce such low notes.

It's barely been 2:50 minutes but I feel like I've been bombarded with hours of music. That's one of the fun of this contrapuntal style.
The Little is by far my favorite fugue and this performance of it is so well done. Thank you!
This is one of the best versions of this piece I’ve heard!
I never saw or heard such a large recorder. It sounds very good. Imagine how much air it takes.

The word is fugue, not fuge.

Excellent - clean recorder sound works well with the faster tempo - well done visual effects also - i like thus very much!
