I LIKE THIS SFROBERGER VERY MUCH. AND I REGRET THAT THERE IS NO ACCOMPANYING VIDEO TO WATCH THE HANDS DO THEIR WORK. JEAN IS A VERY SPECIAL MUSICIAN INDEED.
Ce qu´il faut de soins et de délicatesse pour traduire la musique de Couperin suivant son coeur son esprit et ses instructions...Au XXI siècle faut-il de l´audace pour faire passer celà !! ...Bravo Jean... ne désarmez pas... Nous vous admirons.
I am absolutely taken by this music and its interpretation. The way time is treated, as a malleable medium, not as a strictly metered continuum, is so absolutely stunning and thrilling. Thank you so much for posting!
Yes in time of eqationists musicians are hard to find in classics.
J'avais été voir Blandine Verlet en concert dans les 90, une pure merveille.
Quelle chance !
This period in music is so underrated. Louis Couperin I like better than Francois Couperin. It's very soulful. Frobeger has that soul too. The mania for the tonic wasn't completely dominant yet. There's time to fill out harmonic plateaus.
Most of the french composers are actually underrated, from Machaut to Dutilleux.
MERCI, MERCI mille fois pour cette SUBLIME interprétation et nous faire fortement aimer françois COUPERIN!
Mais il n'a joué que Louis
This a beautiful performance!
Le temps s'arrête ou continue-t'il ? Quand j'écoute ça, qu'est-ce que je fabrique ? Que se passe-t-il ? Est-ce que c'est le silence et le son qui arrêtent une dispute ? C'est quoi ce lien entre mes yeux immensément ouverts, ma gorge, mon coeur, mon plexus, mon ventre, mon périnée ? Un nouveau soin, une école de bien-être ? Juste une musique parmi d'autres ? Ah bon .
du très grand art. L'harmonie fluctuante du milieu du XVIIème siècle, étincelante. Les dissonances et chromatismes qu'on ne retrouvera que beaucoup plus tard à partir de Wagner..., une folle passion contenue dans les formes à variations et qui manque de tout faire exploser par moments, ou bien la plus contemplative mélancolie imaginable. C'est une musique d'intensités constantes et contrastantes. De l'âme, et des sens, de flux, plis et déplis. Merci Rondeau d'épouser les génies avec le vôtre propre.
Je comprends intimement la mention de Wagner.
he plays chaconne en re mineur perfectly. this is the reason why i listen to french harsichord and not just bach.
At least you could have spelled Bach's name with a capital "B."
Très bel hommage à Blandine Verlet ! Merci !
Благодарю за чудеса , слушать в вашем исполнении музыку это радость для души
Thank you very much for this wonderful musical recording. The very expansive bows
as well as the small ornaments in the interpretation are fantastic and show once again Jean Rondeau's extraordinary talent for the harpsichord. Well done!

Un merveilleux concert en hommage à cette si grande Dame du clavecin. La photo à la fin fait monter les larmes aux yeux et tant de souvenir reviennent... Merci pour le partage
Bellissimo Concerto.!
The excellence is a perfect story.
I wept when I saw the photo at the end. A very moving tribute.
I had the honor of meeting Blandine in the '80s. She was such a nice lady and a wonderful harpsichordist. I particularly treasure the Froberger and L. Couperin recordings she made on the Colmar Ruckers.
Bravo
Un merveilleux concert Bravo et Merci !
A perfect visual for this excellence.
Stunning playing. FYI the first Couperin doesn't start until 2:08 - the first bit must be free improvisation.
Rondeau's own prelude in imitation of Mr Froberger, perhaps. I heard some vague echoes of the toccata in Am, among other things.
Merci beaucoup cher ami!
Merci pour le partage de ce merveilleux concert, que je cherchais désespérément à réécouter !
Jean Rondeau как всегда великолепен!
Зрелый Мастер, слушать которого можно без конца, а наслушаться невозможно!
Богу Слава! Мир вам!
It looks like there might be a typo. The prelude 'a l'imitation de Froberger' starts at at 2:09 only. What precedes it is Rondeau's own improvisation. Thanks for uploading the concert.
That is correct.
Concert très émouvant !
Большое спасибо за публикацию !
Thank you! 🌸
Yes the "Prélude à l'imitation de Mr. Froberger" shares the same wonderful, abysmal, lyrical sadness of the great german!
Better than Froberger, I dare say :)
Just kidding, I love both Froberger and Louis Couperin.
Anyone could tell me the title of the closing encore?
Блистательно !
I would not describe any instrument by Philippe Humeau as inferior to a Hass, especially for this repertoire!
Louis Couperin on a Hass... better not :)
I like his playing much better when I only listen to him.
I saw Jean Rondeau play in 2017, he is good at working magic in the room in person and I don't think he made physically distracting movements while playing, but of course your mileage may vary.
Thank you so much for this. Jean Rondeau has so much sensibility in his interpretations . And he turned 30 today, may he live many years more to inspire and delight us all.
@@tiphainecrenn4937 Happy (Belated) birthday to him!
Overall a very fine and individual recital, very rhapsodic and fluent. The slow movements are particularly good - the Tombeau by Froberger is wonderful - but I was disappointed by Couperin's Pavanne which seems to lack an overarching structure and trails off at the end. I wish sometimes he would allow more space between the notes. I miss a nobility at times.
I guess the encore is the (second) Chaconne from the Suite in F major by Louis Couperin (see Christoper Hogwood).
Rondeau most definitely knows how to kill a beautiful piece as La Piémontoise. Thanks anyway there are not that many hpschd concerts broadcasted. .
I do agree about the fast pieces, but I like his style when he takes things slowly (and improvises all over it).
@@joannescouchet7038 For my taste he is taking the C-maj Passacaille too rapidly.
To each their own. I enjoyed it, personally.
@@zacharybond23 Than it served its purpose. Hopefully this way of playing will bring in some new generations who will like the harpsichord as an instrument.
@@HarpsichordVinylGallery It has. I am of the younger generation (2004), and the harpsichord is the instrument that I connect with the most. I first learned of the harpsichord through the Goldberg Variations by Johann Sebastian Bach. I have fallen in love with the instrument, especially instruments by members of the Ruckers family, and instruments inspired by those originals.
LIKE ALL EXPERIENCES SOME CONTRAST IS NECESSARY. SOME SCARLATTI, BACH, PURCELL, RAMEAU , WOULD HAVE MADE THIS CONCERT MORE EASLILY EXPERIENCED.
YES, I KNOW, IT´S A DIRGE.
is for elites.
I recommend Richard Clayderman...
Dressing casually and using an ugly inappropriate bench simply destroys his credibility. Shameful.
Certainly for anyone who has no interest in music these things might seem significant.
Glenn Gould also had an inappropriate chair... give me a breath, do you not have ears?
@@emilelaurent "Inappropriate" seem to have been GG'a middle name and
(I believe) willfully so.
