une oeuvre très difficile comme toujours chez jolivet que je connaissais pas bravo madame il faut le faire .Il y a quelques ressemblances avec son concerto pour trompette c'est du Jolivet pur jus
As a bassoonist (German system), I have never in 35 years been able to play this piece to the degree that this young lady has performed it. I wil admit to not actually liking the piece particularly (too modern to my tastes), but absolutely hats off to Sophie for at least showing me how it should be done!
What a wonderful musician. The bassoon is no impediment. She has conquered it. Congratulations and congratulations on her new job. May she have a long and successful career.
@@francoisvillon1300 The music comes from the composer and the musician that interprets it. Usually the bassoon is an impediment to music. One must master the bassoon and it's problems. If the bassoon expresses itself it will be out of tune and uneven. It is the technical part of the human who must balance the output of a bassoon to even it out and let it flow.
With Sophie Dartigalongue, this splendid concerto reaches its apotheosis. Here, Jolivet's genius and Dartigalongue's are in perfect harmony. It's awesome!
Je réécoute régulièrement ce magnifique concerto de Jolivet, compositeur que je vénère, et qui mérite, ô combien, d'être redécouvert (ses concertos pour flûte, trompette, violoncelle, ondes Martenot sont autant de merveilles!) Et la prestation de la jeune Sophie Dartigalongue est simplement époustouflante! La rencontre de cette musicienne exceptionnelle et de ce grand compositeur est un moment béni des dieux! Merci infiniment pour cet upload qui me donne un bonheur qui ne se dément jamais.
The Jolivet has been around for a long time, even though it sounds "contemporary" it is not. It has been a pretty standard piece for many competitions and even auditions for years. I remember spending time on this this in grad school back in the day. That was when it was a pretty avant garde piece. It is still a very difficult and dangerous piece, but the top young performers today have such a mastery of technique (especially in the high register) it is scary. For non-bassoonists, it is important to understand that the fingering system is unlike any other wind instrument, not even close to the Boehm or semi-Boehm system that is basic for most woodwinds (think up to 11 keys for the left thumb alone). And once you get into the higher register, it is downright crazy. Instrument makers have added features in the last 10+ years that have certainly assisted players...lots of optional extra keys and special keywork. But the instrument is still a beast to master. Ms. Dartigalongue's performance is spectacular in every way.
for bassoon contemporary means written after 1900, most music written for bassoon after 1900 is extremely ugly, this concerto sadly is no exception. But bassoonist are happy with every piece of crap that is written by a composer with some kind of credibility. I need to add that I find Sophies performance outstanding!
I played this a few years ago for my final degree's recital and while I was satisfied with my performance I don't think anything will ever be able to compare to Sophie's. Incredible stuff.
I was seriously thinking about playing this for my final recital. But I ended up deciding not to. This piece is just such a beast. I do want to play it some time in my career though.
Astounding! I rarely heard a so powerful and so challenging music work for a soloist. The bassoonist seemed exhausted after this piece. It's quite easy to guess why.
Her and Robert Rønnes have 2 different and equally impressive interpretations. While I looked at this beast of a score for it and laughed, she walk up to it and turned it into a prince of a piece. Well done to this Belle.
Un grand lyrisme ds cette pièce contemporaine et quelle belle interprète pour ce répertoire méconnu . Merci et bravo pour cette performance de haut niveau.
SD tamed the wild beast masterfully! A spot on performance of my favorite bassoon concerto.Anyone who thinks extreme high notes should not be played or even practiced on bassoon is like telling a surgeon not to attempt certain surgeries because they are too difficult. Composers will continue to write for the bassoon in this extreme register. Sometimes shrillness is a sound that is appropriate and even desired, in some music.
Even though the high register A - C is quite strenuous on the lips and cheeks, once you master them fully, you broaden your options in music you can play :-) One of the reason I play the bassoon is because it's such a versatile instrument and it is, in my opinion, quite a challenge to master :-)
Im a bassoonist and up to e (and the f in certain pieces like in this one) is pretty standard now. I've noticed the reason why colleague's and I had problems in the start learning the high e was more a mental thing
Enorme Sophie!!! la fluidez y claridad en esta prueba de fuego para los más grandes, nos deja una emoción sin límites. Sus pasajes en staccato, y, en general, el paralelismo de su bello rostro con los pasajes más complicados, me estimula a escribir todos los poemas para esta gigantesca fagotista. Bravísimo!!!!!!
The ladyes is coming very strong on basson and clarinet,but not on oboe. They are Great players and very velcome. This one-fantastic!! April 2023 Brynjar Hoff
Typically, obviously not in all cases though, contemporary music or music falling into that category doesn't have a key. They're usually written in C and the composer writes in accidentals simply to match the chord and to get the feeling they want on that particular note.
It's atonal. There's no key and the focus is on the mood it sets. It's actually more freedom to the composer, but it's really difficult to write atonally and it not sound like a hot pile of garbage.
Wonderful performance! Video not so much.The videographer/editor missed most of interesting and technically difficult keywork - the 10 keys played by 2 thumbs!
The lady player is for me better than Jolivet. But the lady...fantastisk. I world like to hear her play C.M.v Weber,is that possible? Regards Brynjar Hoff
If it was such a splendid piece of music - indeed it was, why have the orchestra and the conductor not been given any credit at all. After all, it seems, they too had a small part to play in all this 0- did they not ?
Lol at this song.. BONG BANG BOONG! composer: yeah I was going for a piano falling down the stairs sound... And for the instrumentalist to sound like they are just frantically playing random notes..

OH MY GOSH THAT WAS THE BEST PERFORMANCE IVE EVER HEARD ON BASSOON. Wow she is truly amazing. That piece is Ridiculously difficult.

What a wonderful musician. The bassoon is no impediment. She has conquered it. Congratulations and congratulations on her new job. May she have a long and successful career.
Conquered? She is just an instrument for bassoon to express itself! :)

Sophie us a incredible musician ! Play without see one notei n the paper , the music is inside of her ! Beutiiful ! Congratulations !
6:11 is amazing. That sounds terrifying to play but she totally nailed it. Sophie's performance is spot on

And remember, it was written for basson (french system) that is way too different that the german system bassoon. She is a delight to hear.
dangerous?
Careful, or you'll mess up and sound bad
It was written smack in the middle of the Contemporary music era. 1954.

The wonderfulness and comfort of her performance with exquisite skill Ís immeasurable, and beyond description.
and permeates the soul
Wunderschön, höre ich immer wieder gern, MERCI, Sophie 🙏🏻
Fagott ist super Instrument. Mein Fater spielt Fagott seit 1976. Es ist echt schön wenn man damit so spielen kann.
bravo for the soloist ! Wonderfull played !

0:27 Recitativo - Allegro Gioviale
8:05 Largo Cantabile - Fugato
Amazing! My role model! Super clean throughout the whole piece! That reed must have been all dried up by the end of it, lol. Simply Amazing!
Magnifique! Ayant joué du basson seulement quelques années d'académie, quelle découverte ici! Grandiose!
Un grand lyrisme ds cette pièce contemporaine et quelle belle interprète pour ce répertoire méconnu .
Merci et bravo pour cette performance de haut niveau.
Absolutely incredible range on the bassoon...such a beautiful instrument! Well done!
Every time I listen to this I fall more in love with the piece and her playing :)
Exceptional in every way
De tout cœur merci

quelle bassoniste ! le concerto de Jolivet est pourtant très difficile, il y a pourtant beaucoup de facilité dans son jeu formidable !

Félicitations respectueuses Sophie Dartigalongue. Bravo. VJolivet.
AMAZING performance. Wow!
...genialne wykonanie, słuchając przeniosłem się w inny wymiar czasoprzestrzeni....

Great! BRAVA!!
Above all, good music
Some say it is the hardest bassoon piece? Is this true?
TheOperamore yeah just about
Francaix concerto is pretty beastly too.
B R A V O ! ! !
Tak se o
B R A V O !
I wonder what the key signature in the beginning of the concerto ? , sounds minor to me?
oh.
Typically, obviously not in all cases though, contemporary music or music falling into that category doesn't have a key. They're usually written in C and the composer writes in accidentals simply to match the chord and to get the feeling they want on that particular note.
Oh okay because i can hear amount of accidentals in this Concerto buts thanks.
It's atonal. There's no key and the focus is on the mood it sets. It's actually more freedom to the composer, but it's really difficult to write atonally and it not sound like a hot pile of garbage.
What a charming in her black eyes!
Believe it or not, she has blue eyes :
