Orchestral Excerpts for Principal Cello (SIMULATION)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.พ. 2025
- In this video I am doing a SIMULATION of how a Orchestra Audition works (more or less). The Orchestral Excertps I am performing in this video are very popular for Principal Cello positions. The repertory depends from orchestra to orchestra. In this case here I opened up www.musicalchairs.info, picked an random audition and studied the pieces.
Hope you enjoy!

Love the Haydn cadenza. Also the Brahms. Thanks for the treat. It brings back many pleasant memories. By the way, you aced the audition. Welcome to first chair.
19:23 Truly Gorgeous Playing, especially at the Don Quixote theme. Wow. 😮 Congratulations also on your release of the Bach Suites.
Wow! Thank you so much and so glad you enjoyed the Don Quixote theme (which I find so challenging!) and thanks a lot for the Bach, hope you enjoy it! 🙂
You play so beautifully :) I'm a big fan and have come back to watch this ever year!! What microphone setup did you use here? I would greatly appreciate some tips as an emerging cellist! Thank you so much, Maestro Laporev!
Nicht nur ein exzellenter Cello Pädagoge sondern ein großartiger Musiker! Maestro, Dankeschön für dieses pädagogisches Geschenk!
Solo do Shostakovich 15 incrível. Tudo incrível! Bravo Ília 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Muito obrigado Nilton!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Luxembourgli - studied in Switzerland too. That’s where the accent was coming from. A bit of French and a lot of German. Really missing Europe right now.
Best excerpts I’ve heard on youtube. Even better, the absolute cleanest and most musical cello playing I’ve heard; simply beautiful. Well done, sir.
wow ilia ! Había podido verlo todo hasta hoy. Impresionante e impresionante. Cualquier orquesta del mundo estaría bendecida con contar contigo. Bravo por tu trabajo y tu aportaciones al contenido musical de TH-cam. Este vídeo es realmente una buena idea. Muchos te agradeceríamos que hiciéramos lo mismo pero par Tutti jjejeejjeej. Gracias por tu arte.
Muchas gracias Ciro! Me alegro mucho! Quien sabe hago uno para el Tutti!! Pero por Dios, que no me piden Don Juan o Heldenleben 🤣 Saludos!!
Thank you!
Epic 🔥👏👏
Thanks man!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you, next please
Not really what you think…working now at the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra in our Concertgebouw hall…so…I call you: next please ;)
@@IliaLaporevcellistwell... congrats then... what i wrote was about your video not about your audition.. to post a video with audition stuff is very confident and i thought you can handle my opinion. Especially for principal cello i would expect more... but i also know very well that a video is just a moment... thats why it is very confident to post it but thats also why you have to deal with comments.
@hansgrau6635 Ah ok, I see! That’s the problem with typing things, you cannot see the person and sometimes misunderstand. It hurts when you play a good audition, and then a joke like this, because unfortunately I heard it so often. Now I can handle your opinion. Ignore my misunderstanding!
@@IliaLaporevcellist exactly... and i heard it also often and now ask myself why i write this sentence below yt Video. Maybe i wanted to hurt you a bit because in my opinion you are so confident (i always put my audition Videos privat) ... but thats not fair and i feel bad. I m sorry dude...
@hansgrau6635 peace my friend! 🤝 Ah, you know. TH-cam is exposed, people can comment what they want at the end, trolling or not. When we expose, we have to deal with it. That’s life!
Bravo Ilia!!!

Sound in haydn is really neat. But rythm is just not there.
Of course phrasing is very important, but I think that in such transparent early age music we cannot afford to create phrases by changing durations (especially if we do not compensate for them later)
Sounds nice but not in style in my opinion
It's funny, but I think that the approach to phrasing in early age music like Haydn and Mozart is very similar to Shostakovich (when performing which it is very important to play very accurately rhythmically, like a robot, otherwise the music simply breaks under its own weight, so to speak)
I apologize for the criticism, as far as I can see from the comments it is customary to only praise, but I am currently working on this concert and I decided that it would be appropriate to share my opinion.
Sorry for my bad eng.
Hi there! First of all, thanks for watching. Both praise and constructive criticism is great, just as you did! So thank you for that. If I may now to give my opinion about Haydn. Maybe you are right, although I have my doubts about it. It all depends on a lot of things. First of all, personal taste. Me, for instance, I can’t stand when someone plays this concerto perfectly in rhythm, but no soul into it (this concerto is very lyrical, it’s almost like an opera). I’ve heard numerous times people that play this perfect, but I want to leave the hall or stop the recording after the exposition. As I mentioned before, this is a very lyrical concerto, so we must sing. So if we, cellists, should play this perfectly in rhythm, why can singers take their time, breath in Figaro, Magic Flute and other works? Also, if it’s for orchestra audition tutti: then yes, you are right. But I only apply for principal cello, and my way of playing never changed, and that has led me to three or four wins as a Cello Solo. In the London Philharmonic Orchestra, where I used to play sometimes, they told me there is nothing wrong to add a personal touch in the classical concertos, and this is a world class orchestra. As you are working now in this concerto, take my suggestions under question mark and observe, what works well, what not. Remember, you are making music, and not just perfection. That is just wrong. Of course, if you are applying for orchestra audition, then yes, rhythm should be there, specially for tutti. If for principal cello, no problem to add a little personal touch (at the end, you are the soloist!). If it’s for a performance, then you can be even more free. Again, all about personal taste. I wish you lots of fun and journey with this marvellous piece! I highly recommend you to listen Truls Mork playing this concerto as a inspiration! And thank you again for your comment, highly appreciated and a thing I can keep in mind next time when I have to play! Ps. Your English is great!
Если вы знаете русский то можете отвечать на нем, так будет немного комфортнее)@@IliaLaporevcellist
@arphail8561 ох! Знайу конечно, ну не умею писать. Могу шитат но я очень плохо пишу :(((
@@IliaLaporevcellist
I'm pretty comfortable with eng so it's ok
@arphail8561 👍🏻
You're a huge inspiration!
Thanks Natali! I hope so! 🤪
Magnificent ✨✨✨😃
Thank you so much! 🙏🏻😊
Super schön!
Vielen Dank!

Valeu Kaisuky! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
is this a human?
Ilia, great work! But just to warn you, the last title on the video is wrong. Rossini is repeated where should have been Shostakovich.
Thank you so much! And thank you so much to correct my error! How could I not notice it…thanks again! 👍🏻
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Obrigado Israel! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
