Why does everyone complain about the speed? I love it!!
Yes...I agree; go to Ana Vidovic Bach's interpretation (when she was really young) it is VERY fast...and to me in Bach sounds terrific, (even though a lot of comments criticized her about the tempo).
I’m a metalhead and I just stumbled across this but I LOVE IT
Welcome, Goldehh, to baroque. Listen to more JSB for example th-cam.com/video/1Csynke0maE/w-d-xo.html, and you'll appreciate that he was the metalhead of his day. He was, and still is The Man, and so much fun to play.
one can indulge in more than one liking in music ;)
That's great to hear! Welcome to the "dark side!" :)
Hello there. It's not too suprising - as Rock Music is the 20h century's way in which classical music survived and thrived - the work of the Beatles, Queen and of course Metallica is the proof, in that all of their music is eminently playable by classical orchestra with ease. Not so much most pop music...look for "The Beatles Go Baroque" on TH-cam and Spotify and enjoy !
@@martinlagrange8821 it’s not as good as tool
One of the best performances of this piece I've ever heard.
I've always loved Bach's music, and this is an astonishing rendition.
c' est une musique d' une autre dimension...
Bach on meth.
Without a doubt, the most animated concert I've seen.
Animated is definitely the word - he doesn't stand still!!!
Definitely!
@@janepoynton4919 How can you when playing Baroque? The music moves you and makes you dance
✌❣genau! 🌹
what a music, what a musician...God send us more Mozarts, Bachs, Beethovens, Rachmaninoffs...
It's amazing to hear such clarity in a live performance, especially at this tempo. Bravo!
The most animated and entertaining Brandenburg number 4 I ever heard. The underthunder of the chellos is was superb, the main violin and recorder players fascinating to watch. All so well balanced. Bravo indeed!
Fine job people. I was lucky enough to play this a few times back in 1985 for Bach's 300th birthday. I never can tire of listening to it or playing it. Again, very nice job. Bach needs to be played forever and ever.
As if you are passing through the Brandenburg Gate this music transports you to the sublime.
enfin un hommage pertinent et juste à la musique de Bach.
The Solo Violinist, Andres Gabetta...that Bowing Arm..i love the Control and Fluidity alot. 😍😍😍
Laura Schmid 😍😍😍😍
a harpsicord Always sound sooo good with a small orchestra like this
For those interested in the animated movements of the musicians, if you notice, there is no director as is common with chamber and small ensembles. The musicians find themselves moving more as visual cues for the other musicians to help keep time.
Thanks for this useful information. Nevertheless, hope they don't knock each other in having to move so much.
@Clive Lamdin I agree with you entirely. I'm a professional soloist of another discipline and this performance is totally dominated by Steger's arrogance. It's actually nauseating to watch. I would not want to work with him.
I've noticed that, in general, orchestral musicians don't move around nearly as much as *some* soloists, perhaps because they don't have the physical room to do so. I agree with the comments about Steger. His movements say, loud and clear, "Look at me!"
@Clive Lamdin You are not alone, I can't watch him play. His overexaggerated movements are just silly.
It just looks silly. There's no need for doing the squats whilst playing
Wow! Great performance! Beautiful done I have been hook on Bach since my 13 th birthday at 16 I have heard all the great performances of all Bach works. I became a specialist on Bach by my own pleasure. This performance is fantastic now one of my favorites. Please keep the good work restoring beauty into this world. Bravo for both recorders and the violinist was superb. To all thanks.
The players in the back: *Quietly play the violin*
Players in the front: *making sure they don’t miss leg day*
Arif Akyuz-What is, "leg day"?
It is a term that exercisers use for days they designate for working on leg strength
@@arifakyuz7673 HAH! I was thinking his suit must be sewed with strong fishing line.
I think the violinist and the recorder players (especially the male) are theatrical and hence a distract to the otherwise good performance.
Lets just say they are having a "hey day" .... let them have fun. Yes, I took in a violin concert which featured the Loccatelli works, performed by a Miss Wahlfish, very fast and intricate, and she didn't dance around. So everyone is an 'artist' in one's own way.
This is the most fun I've ever had hearing the Brandenburg 4th. Makes a lot more sense than the usual smoother, slower versions. I doubt Bach's orchestra played it like this originally, but I'm sure Bach would approve today.
O my god. Electrifying. Can't say more. Brilliant brilliant brilliant
When you don't have a Conductor, you kind of have to conduct yourself...Salute to the Recorder virtuoso!
Maurice Steger IS the conductor...of that entire group, based in Basel.
Yaa xDD but actually is the best way to do it
the first violin is also awesome !
Pied Piper!
Man, Maurice is having a ton of fun up there, gotta love it
This old man, after several listenings/watchings continues being enthralled by their performance and their joy in producing it; well done!
The lady must go nuts next to that jumping Jack
I love the look on their faces at 14:06 - "We made it! We survived!"
I just learned about Laura Schmid and she’s really an amazing recorder player.
She looks 14
Así se interpreta a Bach...y esas dos flautas son una maravilla...realmente impresionante la corrdinación del grupo !!!!!
exactamente, esta es la forma de interpretar a bach, con auténtica pasión y viveza. La gente tiene una idea errónea sobre cómo interpretar a bach, sus mentes cuadradas y dogmáticas queiren interpretar a bach de forma cuadrada, sin chiste... nada más lejos de la verdad.
Love the dancelike energy in this group
This concert is gold!
That’s what I call a flow! Great. The performers nowadays have so much improved in any way these years, hats off!
Mein Gott! My God! Mi Dios! What a beautiful and amazing music!
Ja, das stimmt🌻
Incredibly good. Without precedent.
You could see how this was really electric back in the 17th century... still is.
18th century, actually
tbh I don't think the Brandenburg Concertos were particularly well received in their day, they certainly didn't earn Bach the position he was looking for. In fact, they may have gone entirely unplayed for nearly 100 years
@@NeaonBHB I think the problem with the Brandenburg Concerto was that Bach didn't send them to the right person. I read somewhere that the receiver apparently lacked the proper musicians who wouldn't be able to play those concertos. So it ended unused.
At that time, a lot depended on the music being exposed to the right people at the right time. But that was not always the case for Bach, so ended up being a relatively underrated composer during his life time.
@@NeaonBHB : You are right to say so, even it we know how it was indeed an injustice !
Actually people at that time were bored with baroque and Bach... Next the romantic period started.
GRANDIOS! Die beiden Flötisten - PERFEKT! Wunderbar, ich schaue es mir jetzt nochmal an!
Sie spielen echt hammermäßig, aber ehrlich gesagt finde ich das ganze Gehample schon etwas affig, aber nu ja.. Jedem das Seine😂
Livera Lynn Ja das stimmt!😂, aber das ist halt ihre Art. Sie fühlen die Musik!!
@@blackmirror7418 Nun, ich frage mich gerade, wie ich die Mimik und Körperhaltung des männlichen Flötisten in dessen Pausen einordnen soll...
Ich möchte das jetzt mal respektvoll so ausdrücken: Für mich zunächst mal eher eine Person, die ich nicht in meinen Freundeskreis aufnehmen würde. Doch sicherlich kann ich mich da auch sehr täuschen, möglicherweise ist er sich dessen gar nicht gewahr.
I'll never ever get bored of this and this by FAR one of the best performances I've ever heard, especially with that French recorder player who is one of the best in the world, Bach was an absolute genius baroque composer, 💜💜💜🙏
I think you might have the recorder players confused; Laura Schmid is from Germany, while Maurice Steger is Swiss.
@@halfflat oh golly thank you, it was actually my father that told me was French, dad's a music teacher, so I didn't question it, but thanks ilp certainly b telling him that he was wrong, thanks 🙏:-)🎹🎼(yes I'm a musician hehe)
Ahhhhh.... the alto recorders are so beautiful!! I love their tone so much more than the sopranos and sopraninos.
I have always felt that way. Tenor us cool too
Very good performance..Congratulations Maurice Steiger..
When I heard them start at this tempo I had to wonder about the violin cadenza but...whoosh!
Very talented violinist but at that speed it just doesn't sound musical.
Excellent performance!
Faster than I normally like, but exquisite. The violinist is amazing. My new favorite performance of one of my favorite pieces. Many thanks!
Bach would have been very happy to hear this
I don't believe. I find terrible!
Katrine Roberts i totally agree with bach agreeing with the interpretation
I don't know if he would have been. I only know *I* like it :).
Perhaps... but regarding the first movement, I'm afraid Bach would have been fiercely scolding them all for racing through it far to quickly.
My favorite Bach concerto and played most masterfully!
Passion, Professionalism, music body language! top musicians!
they are young musicians, they move and feel the music as they contra apart Rock Stars, remember, Guns & Roses, Nirvana, etc.
Vive la Jeunesse!!!!!!
Fantastic performance by Joshua Bell’s long-lost twin brother lol.
Jonathan Chime
Funny! I thought the same thing myself. :)
@@john.415 me to!
Charming, without words, bellisimo
Playing a piece like this at a faster tempo is a problem only if the execution suffers, but the only thing that suffered here were the musicians. Brilliant performance, love to see such a vibrant and energetic stage display.
Oh no, these musicians don't suffer! They must be very happy.
Faster than what?
Steeger loves Speedy Tempi….make people excited…..
Do you know why the others do not have a cloth on the violin. I thought maybe because he has to do the most work, maybe it is very expensive or he has a condition. Ayway, I really enjoy them all, fantastic performance, but I was wondering about that one thing which is not important.
Sometimes too fast is just right.
A brilliant performance of Bach's best composition in the Italian concerto style. Tempi are perfetto.
Tempi are perfetti :D
@@umegghju Well, tempi sono perfetti :)
ce n' est pas la meilleure composition de Bach dans l' absolu. Il a fait tant d' autres innombrables chef d' oeuvres de toute beauté.
So much fun and energy! You can't help but love the piece and the performance.
EXCELENTE! Una auténtica banda de excelentes intérpretes hacen un concierto vivo, dinámico y divertido y suena genial
un Bach hors normes,une révélation,haute admiration,les solistes sont d'excellence
quelle révalation ?
The Music of Bach is so completely satisfying. I especially love the sound of Bach on recorder. My favorite Brandenburg
Best performance of Brandenburg 4 I've ever heard!
Grandios und traumhaft oder eher ohne Worte weil es dafür keine passenden Worte gibt auf Erden ☘️🤗🙏🤗☘️
They are great Alchemists of Bach‘s music.
In the their hands,
musical notes can be transformed into the inspirational performance
LOVE the choreography!! The man with the recorder looks like he is doing the Gangman Style of dancing, lol. That said, it is a delightful performance, and not TOO fast, IMHO, although it is on the borderline.
depois aparece alguém reclamando de quem canta enrolando novelo. aff
He still looks better than me on the dance floor!
altareggo
Doesn't the composer leave instructions on how fast and what mood he wants it played?
@@vgil1278 in the baroque period, the tempo or speed of a movement was not exactly prescribed by the composer. It depends on e.g. the pulse of a human at that time :)
😊sehr melodioes gespielt, mit viel leidenschaft. Wie alles von maurice! ❤❤❤❤
A lovely, honest interpretation...a little bit rough round the edges....but that's what I like!!
Love the recorder player's energy.
Ein Genuß für Augen und Ohren
Danke
What a treat this performance is! Fantastic playing from everyone! Thank you for the inspiration!
Extraordinaire !
Sensational performances, particularly the first recorder.
How does it come about, that several highly skilled and talented musicians find each other and form an ensemble, playing together exquisitely?
My early life then retirement. Beautiful tempo ♥️
2:46 holy shit!!!
Dig it
Yes, the violin is fantastic in this moment!
Magnificent. They are standing, and they are moving with the music. Makes a difference.
Absolutely fantastico .......I'm truly amazed that this little instrument I learnt and a whole other generation learnt to play at school can make such a virtuoso sound!
Yes, but all alone, the recorder as solo instrument sounds quite different...
Quelle tenue ! Quelle force ! Quel rythme ! Un hymne à la joie, à la vie.
Che Dio vi benedica!
God bless you.
Laura Schmid
So lovely and elegant.
Now I have to write a long comment...sorry. Did you notice at 4:06 Maurice gave his music stand a little POKE with his knee? I suspect that many missed that because it went by so quickly. I also suspect that all that swinging around may have brought the sheet music close to tumbling to the floor. (Amazing how a human being can do two things at the same time. LOL.) Anyway, the tempo was breathtaking. And their technic was so much in control that they could concentrate on matching each other and even the entire ensemble. And the articulation was crystal clear.
My CD is on Philips and I believe that the violinist is Henry Szerynig. (sorry about the spelling). That one is a great one and it has accompanied me on many long trips in my car. So I know this concerto as well as I know the Mozart Horn Concertos !!! But this one makes me want to get up and dance. I guess you get the point.
PS. "Cappella" is a wonderful name and she kept up with him without missing a beat.
The "poke" with the knee wasn't there for the music stand but to cover the bell of his recorder to reach that particular note.... some notes need to cover the bell hole of the recorder.
I'm listening to this because Maurice Steger is the man!
I love the pastel colors on the stage. Adds a vintage look.
Great Music !!!! And performers !!!!
Music and dance. Two for one deal.
divino! felicitaciones a todos ANDRES Y BETINA! BRAVO !
Adoro questo concerto!
Victoria! Son grandes! Magnífica interpretación!
Beautiful recorders on Brandenburg 4...
Mr. Recorder is hilariously confident, very entertaining!
These two probably the best recorder players I ever saw
Recorder is a wonderful instrument!
2:57 and the 3:00 those basso thunder strikes...... delicious
The enviroment they created it's great, congrats!
casi como los ángeles
For those comments below--Seget is conducting with his recorder as a baton
une grande splendeur d'entre les splendeurs,admiration
Beautiful and never gets old❤
... esto es, .......... absolutamente, ¡ hermoso ! ....
Cappella Gabetta e solistas; extraordinários!
fantastic performance!
