- Concerned to J S Bach's Cantatas:
Ton Koopman speaks -
BWV 106 - Actus Tragicus
Ton Koopman talks about, besides other things, the problem of the pitch of the instruments in the time of J.S. Bach in Leipzig, the issue of the recorders and transverse flutes in the Bach's cantatas performings.
Man, I want Koopman as my teacher!
Sublime music, of course, but what about that amazing collection of antiquarian books!!
@starbreez3 as long as he teaches you the conventions of baroque practice at the time, but does not teach you to say this or that Bach wouldnt approve, or this or that is wrong cause is not historically accurate. rachmaninov said iconoclasticism is the motor of novelty in art. prokofiev said sviatoslav richter renewed his works (so not even composers themselves thought they had THE last word)
Koopman - The greatest specialist of genius Bach ! thanks for video.
This is great! Boy, did this answer a lot of questions. My own perfect pitch of 440 is constantly screwed by 415 and 465... but at 55, I don't care anymore!!!!! As a Lutheran Music Director, I am thankful that our service is 60 minutes!!! People can barely sit THAT long anymore-hahahaha
@stargirlsusan The number stands for the frequency of the note "A" in the middle of the treble staff. So when you play the standard A on a modern instrument, it registers as 440 hertz. 415 means the same note is 415Hz, and all of the other notes are a slightly lower pitch as a result. This posed a problem for woodwind instruments because their pitch depends country of origin, since there was no standard. Hope this makes sense!
Woah woah woah.3 hours in church?????
so smart and lively the Dutch!..:)
PER SUA SFORTUNA E CON TUTTO IL RISPETTO NON E' LUI L'INTERPRETE MIGLIORE...
i love bach music but dont understand jack about the 440 415 thing he was explaining, it made me feel very stupid. Can someone elighten me alittle bit more?
@musicaenlaniebla I thought that anyone had already uploaded that. I can do that, if TH-cam permits it.
Very interesting! I could listen to this dude all day.. I wish Bach could drop by in a timemachine and enter a modern instrument store... What would happen in there!?:D
I like the apparently simple way ton koopman is explaining the seemingly 415/465 pitch-problem in performance with recorders, where he gives his choice by preference in the execution of the cantata BWV 106 Actus Tragicus
Thank you Mr. Koopman this information is very interesting for our way.
@mdeonx16 kenneth gilbert is superior
Great insight on the use of cantatas in the church..3 hour service? I can handle that; seriously, wouldn't mind at all.
Shame after all that good stuff about the transpositions and pitches that Koopman's viol players are clearly playing in F at low pitch and not in E flat at high pitch as he claims!
codonauta Thanks from Lima, Perú. Please, please, please, could you post the whole cantata in Koopman's version? Thanks again!
mine too
@areitu thank you
What is the music used?
