It's really quite astounding how far backwards music has gone. Personally, I am a lifelong drummer and I listen to a lot of heavy/technical music that is fun to play drums to, but I could never stop listening to the masterpiece classical music of the greats like Bach. He was on an entirely different level than the rest of us. It's crazy to me how the highly complex/technical classical music of 200-600 years ago was so much more advanced than what most people are creating today. I think a big part of that is just the mass amount of knowledge acumulated during a time where music was taken much more seriously than it is today, and how it was passed down through avant-garde instructors. I suppose after extremely basic "Rock & Roll" music took over, this type of composing just stopped being innovated upon for the most part and popular music went in another direction. 🤷♂
Your comment, coming from a musician grounded on pop music, a drummer, is very insightful. My friend, every period in human history, is marked by the spirit of the epoch, the Zeitgeist, and the best harvest of music belongs to the old masters (between sixteenth century and twentieth century). Unlike the visual arts, which reached the pinnacle of perfection during the glorious years of the Ancient Greeks, and then again during the Renaissance, but between these two epochs, humanities have suffered the eternal recurrence of the dark ages. Unfortunately, every great civilization, as evinced in the great golden age of people long gone in the backyard of history, will come to an end, and with it, Johann Sebastian Bach will be remembered anymore than a ancient deity in the Parthenon of the great spirits. It is heartbreaking that the fate of great souls, such as Bach, Carl Orff, Chopin, Beethoven, among others, is already written in the wailing winds of history. O Fortuna, the great Germany of Bach is long gone already…
The glorious time of tonal music is gone. Some nooks and crannies, unturned stones, may remain untouched, hither and thither, for the few inspired composers who may claim to have composed “something new” (as it is the case of child prodigy Alma Deutsche). Sergei Rachmaninoff and Carl Orff, are perhaps the last serious composers of tonal music, and much of their output, if original could be called, has been but further elaboration (pastiches) based on the works and loins of previous composers. Indeed! Tonal music is limited, its wellspring of infinite number of melodies and harmonies is limited, what is not limited is the agreeable effects, their boundless scope in which they impress our imagination, and “how and why” this musical experience is felt in our mind and heart is one of the profoundest mysteries of consciousness and sentience. We know that the lower pitches and timbres, bass-line, percussion, tumbas, drums, brass, et. al., could remind us of the lower brushstrokes and struggles in this universal will to exist, in coming to being: metals and minerals being the lowest most ponderous sounds; and as we ascend through the kingdom of plants and animals, the registration of musical instruments seems to speak of a greater and richer multiplicity and multifariousness in all the life-forms, where we, human beings (possessing intelligence, consciousness and sentience) may appear like the crowning achievement of this awesome creation. The highest timbres and pitches (such as in the music of Wagner), the melody-line, as the upper strings ever piercing our hearts and minds with strangest feelings of elation and well-being, may remind us the felicitous triumph of consciousness and sentience in all the biological dynamics of Mother Nature.
what do I know really, but I have some thoughts on this; i think the classical era was a time when both for better and worse music was very restrictive, and all of the masters were striving toward this idea of music that is objectively, undeniably, the best of the best. this was not a time for DIY, everything’s subjective, there’s no rules when it comes to art. it’s something I struggle with a lot as someone that has always admired rule-breakers, self taught weirdos and the like who were not interested in following the rules, and certainly we can’t deny there’s an entire avenue of genius that runs along those lines of breaking molds in the name of following one’s own sense of creative honesty. that being said, the older I get, the more I listen to something like Bach and think yes, it doesn’t matter if you like it or not, it is objectively of the highest aesthetic integrity. I would like to think if one was able to say this to Bachs face he’d probably look at you like “Yeah? Duh? What do you think I was trying to do all that time?”.
1:47:03 this is what I think heaven sounds like when you first get there and it welcomes you - as you walk in and see all of your loved ones from the past that have been waiting for you, embracing you with their wonderful and warm spirits. The light is beautiful, and as you continue, you feel as if you are floating, light as a feather--then you realize that you will be in happiness for eternity and experience no more pain and sadness, and all of your earthly problems, ailments and troubles are no more.
Very interesting. I always thought heaven would sound like Beethoven’s Gloria from Missa Solemnis. Like a thousand angels singing perfectly in all their different parts, angels quickly flying by…
@VDMA - Bach has been described by many as the "God of music", with apologies to God. In a word, he was the greatest musical genius ever, even by his keyboard music alone.
@That Lutheran Guy A "devout Lutheran" who made a Catholic Mass (hear the Credo: "credo in unam sanctam catholicam et apostolicam ecclesiam" etc.) his masterwork though....
En dépit de sa diversité stylistique, Bach était avant tout un compositeur d'esthétique expressionniste, toujours proche du drame, de la profondeur, de l'angoisse et la vision profonde et tourmentée de la vie qui semble émaner de la métaphysique de l'homme comme de sa même nature profonde 🕊
The beginning makes me think I have met my Maker, been judged unworthy, and sent to the depths of Hell itself. I repent!!! Please say it is not too late!!!
Not for now! You still have chance to accept Jesus Christ and His Church while you live! Repent indeed and work out your salvation, love others and love God
A Mothers absolution , her mission , the heavy burden carried , a messege amongst the blessed leafs she falls , upon her the light of our Lord ... He forgives you all Amen 🙏
“Bach's music is the only argument proving the creation of the Universe cannot be regarded as a complete failure. Without Bach, God would be a complete second-rate figure.” Emil Cioran
Very beautiful music !!! I'm working at a rebuilding project for a Clandestine Church in Rotterdam (Netherlands) with a rich baroque interior : The St Rosaliakerk designed by Carlo Francesco Giudici a Italian architect that lived into Netherlands since 1770 untill his death in 1819 . The church was builded between 1777 and 1779 but destroyed at the Rotterdam Blitz at 05/14/1940. I started at May 1 2016 and i'm still not finnished. But when the church will come back and will be rebuilded, then i do want that this mass wil be sung and also Gregorian Chant for the Asperges Me, Introritus, Graduale, Alleluia, Offertorium, and Communio.
@@RezaChity-G I have some good news about my rebuilding project. Just i founded my 162nd and 163rd picture of the church and i will stop it into my Documentation folder.
I wasn't even going to add a comment till I noticed "Vatican Catholic". Strange but amusing. I just decided to listen to it because it's a great piece of music, regardless of religious beliefs (or lack of). With all due respect, religious proselytizing really is out of line. I recommend listening to everything you can written by this great composer. Unfortunately (even with being raised Catholic) I don't follow religious denominator of music of any genre I listen to so I cannot recommend any Catholic composers even though I'm sure there are plenty and I've probably even listened to them. But I couldn't tell you who they are because it doesn't cross my mind. I did. I do wonder if "Vatican Catholic"listens to other types of music besides classical because I truly would like to see a long"in depth" posting on what he thinks of Prince being a Jehovah witness and see what category you throw him into. Thanks to anyone who read through my diatribe
Mozart was Catholic, and wrote most of a mass himself. Bach is unique in that he wrote a full mass while being Lutheran, which practices Luther's reformed Mass, which is generally shortened these days. There were few differences between traditional mass in both traditions (corporate confession and the words of institution among them), and to this day many high Lutherans, high anglicans, and Catholics can find unity in liturgy.
@@TrumpeterOnFire Mozart composed several Masses. It was a Requiem Mass which he left unfinished. Haydn composed Masses. Beethoven, and many more composed Masses, some long, like this one, some short with little or no repetition of the text.
[The Mass was described in the 19th century by the editor Hans Georg Nägeli as "The Announcement of the Greatest Musical Work of All Times and All People" ("Ankündigung des größten musikalischen Kunstwerkes aller Zeiten und Völker").[47] Despite being seldom performed, the Mass was appreciated by some of Bach's greatest successors: by the beginning of the 19th century Forkel and Haydn possessed copies. ] This work of Bach captures the long lost mystique and gravitas of the pre-Vatican II Catholic Church. Can we live sanely in a world with NO transcendence ?
The way I hear it, Miguel, all of Bach IS about Christ. I cannot think of a composer for whom this connection--is so tightly exemplified. I would dare say that Bach's music is not an expression of life in Christ, it is His life in Christ. Think for instance what his best music is here in his Passions & in the Cantatas. All about Christ.
Does as anyone know the year this was recorded? I've become interested in the differences between the less and more historically accurate interpretations of Bach's music. I generally prefer the less I'm afraid. I find the slower movements and larger choirs more dramatic.
Release date is 2015. Academy of Early Music, Berlin. Pitch is A=422, high voices in the choir are boys and men, and it sounds like all period instruments. So probably as historically accurate as they can make it, except maybe the soprano solo could be a boy.
Feb-01-2021 There are 31 people who have really great troubles in his audition skills. Perhaps is due to Covid-19. There is no other explanation for this.

This is such a heavenly music... Bach must have been ordained by God to compose music like this..,

Heavenly music? Massive understatement.
