I’ve had the opportunity to hear this masterpiece performed live last week and I’ve felt the music flow through my entire body, such a surreal experience 🤯
Respighi so much better than Stokowsky in every transcription of the great Bach's music. This is wonderful stuff. So full of rich harmonies and instrumental detail. This is such an enjoyable performance. He raises Bach's music to a higher level.....if that was possible.
Well, i am not an expert, but in all of the passacaglia versions (piano, organ, orchestra, clavier,...) that i have listened, they are very beautiful and there is not a version that i can say its terrible. All of them are simply from other world, it just shows that Bach's passacaglia is like a glove and fits in several versions. Thanks Bach, for give us this divine masterpiece
Superb, both as a grand organ composition and right here, too. I do not doubt that, if Bach is still following events on earth, he is very pleased with Signor Respighi's orchestration and with this performance. Let me say it will be best to listen to either version while one is contemplating the earthly ministry of Jesus, with its interviews and episodes, but over-arched with his inexorable determination to fulfill His Passion for us.
Respighi's version is like a 3D coloured pallet, too much detailed, it must be listened in dts sound to clearly feel the details deeply in the soul, wow....
I missed the slatkin interpretation. It was on a nice channel but she was removed from youtube :/ If anyone knows where I can find it please let me know :)
Я ведь исправила опечатку, текст проверила, почему же интернет редактор своенравничает? А потом одни комментаторы считают других комментаторов безграмотными. Ютуб, наладь работу интернет редактора.
At 7:08 The timpani is so dull. It should be bright, sharp, emphatic, triumphant and clear above the rest of the orchestra. The trill at 13:19 is weak; oh so puny. On the other hand, the horns are wonderful in this recording.
А нельзя ли сделать так, чтобы все комментарии в российском сигменте автоматически переводили на русский язык? Так хочется понять, как люди из других стран реагируют на музыку Баха.
Не согласна с мнением, что Респиги сделал аранжировка лучше, чем Стоковский. У Респиги Бах звучит более торжественно: хочется встать, молитвенно сложить руки и возвести очи к небу. А у Стоковского Бах более теплый: хочется закупаться в пуховую шаль, забраться с ногами в кресло, обнять себя, закрыть глаза и подумать обо всём и не о чём.
Это опять я. Слушаю и собираю мысли в кучу. Потом просею эту кучу мыслей: плевела изчезнут, а зерно истины останется. Благодаря Баху и Респиги.
the finest version of this godly creation of johann sebastian bach , our master composer.

Это опять я. Сегодня слушаю Респиги. А вчера Стоковского - такое было настроение.
This music is so solemn and yet grand. And to currently to describe world events.
And listen to Vaughn Williams variation on a theme by Thomas Tallas.
Respighi so much better than Stokowsky in every transcription of the great Bach's music. This is wonderful stuff. So full of rich harmonies and instrumental detail. This is such an enjoyable performance. He raises Bach's music to a higher level.....if that was possible.
Yes, he muscles it up with more power and keeps it there. Stokowsky elongates it and makes it less immediate.
It is matter of a taste. I enjoy version by Stokowski way more.
@@38Marvin38 me too!!

@38Marvin38 All these orchestrations are crazy. No one has the quality of Ravel's orchestration of Mussorgsky.
Both Respigi and Stokowski arrangements and orchestration are great
Respighi is the best arr.
Fantástica orquestación! el colorido orquestal! Sublime!

I'm sure Bach would approve of how Respighi has transcribed his amazing music. A sort of "partnership" between two geniuses.
Beautiful, Awesome, Cosmic and Huge
14:00 absolutely epic
8:25 the bassooon taking the line...OMG
Respighi's version is like a 3D coloured pallet, too much detailed, it must be listened in dts sound to clearly feel the details deeply in the soul, wow....
This paints a picture of French aristocracy during the French Revolution through my ears 🤷🏼♂️
❤❤❤
Favourite version
706 - bellissima musica - ciao da VALERIO !!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Johann Sebastian Bach-Ottorino Respighi:c-moll passacaglia és fúga BWV 582
Seattle-i Szimfonikus Zenekar
Vezényel:Gerard Schwarz
Choosing between the Respighi and Stokowski arrangements is a more agonising task than Sophie's Choice.
Usually Stokowski is the man but for this specific piece Respighi's arrangement is just incomparable, absolute epic and perfect in every way.
There's a third version, with a more baroque orchestration, by Sir Andrew Davis. It's my favorite. th-cam.com/video/lV67Ic3BTrU/w-d-xo.html
Знатоку литавр и треллей: а музыка вам понравилась? Аранжировка Респиги вам понравилась? А Бах вам понравился?

Hi Yoan. The Leonard Slatkin recording with the BBC Phil is on Chandos 9835.

si può dire ..più che sublime ??
14:00 is like a transition from Star Wars XD
Запросила весь ютуб, а аранжировку Слаткина не нашла. Кто-нибудь знает, где найти Слаткина в русском сигменте?
哇塞!!
Andrew Davis' version sounds much more Baroque. th-cam.com/video/lV67Ic3BTrU/w-d-xo.html
Прошу прощение за опечатку: закупаться.
