    I love how much time he gives to each of these students. I've been to masterclasses before, and 10 minutes was the maximum they were willing to spend with a student. Sure there were sometimes time constraints, but the commitment this takes is remarkable. He really cares about these students mastering their art.

    "Have you lost anyone you loved>That is the emotion there." wow that brought tears to my eyes instantaneously. Mr. Zander, you are brilliantly. Thank you for these classes.

    Hi Ben!
    It’s your student from ions ago!
    Watching and listening to this performance brought me back to the class I had with you at NEC!
    I remember Paul Maerlin playing this in our class.
    Thank you for teaching me!
    I try to remember everything you’ve taught me and I’ve been passing the gems on to my students.
    This was my favorite class at NEC!

    I would like to see one of these videos with the double bass it seems to be forgotten for some reason and it's sad to all of us bass players so if you can do that I'll love this kind of video!!

      Here's one, though it's with Hans Jørgen Jensen instead of Benjamin Zander, from around 2016 I think. (Actually I didn't find his teaching here nearly as interesting or helpful as Benjamin's. Of course with a player like Mikyung, what was he going to say? He had to make himself sound important somehow!) th-cam.com/video/O0vgKeXLAHE/w-d-xo.html

      I've just been listening to Leonard Rose play Brahms 1. I was exposed to much Brahms through my formatory years. Then at a lesson with William Pleeth in the early 1960s he was wanting me to dramatize Brahms 1. I tried to adapt but I don't feel myself to have "clicked" to Pleeth really. And maybe with his Bach bowings.

    • @soundhill1

      This is a puzzle for me, where my Brahms came from. I didn't know my grandfather but he was overseas for a while wth Godowski. When he came back my mother would have heard his interpretations presumably from Brahms to Godowski. And as I grew she was constantly playing the Ballades and Intermezzi and various songs

  • @amielschotz4982
    @amielschotz4982 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Brilliant as always, perhaps life changing for the young cellist. But he sends a mixed message-first insisting that she act out the “story” in body language and facial expression, but finally saying that in a sense she needs to be almost invisible, so that the “presence” is all that of Brahms. No, it’s a collaboration and there are times in the music when it’s fine for the audience to be aware of the performers AND the music at the sam3 time.
