One of my father's musics. He used to listen with closed eyes. Now, with tears, I miss him.
Same here. My father loved cello and had me play it growing up. I'm going to try to play this again, even though l haven't for many years--in his memory....
The only way to listen to this song is with closed eyes :)
He’s still here with you, looking after you but you don’t see him.
@@naomipreston886 I’m so sorry for your loss.
Absolutamente... se abre inmenso el mundo
I'm 81 yrs. old. One of the greatest pleasures of retiring in 2018 is having time to really enjoy music. Listening to you, many pieces over and over, is magic. You live to make each other shine!
I know right, sometimes you just need to chill out, relax and listen to music.
Thank you very much, my friend. God bless you.
I'm your age and semi-retired. You express perfectly what I feel. Salutations de Montréal.
My mom used to play this on the piano for me absolutely beautiful RIP momma
I'm a french cellist... Of course I played that one thousand times. Often everybody is overexpressing it, playing also it too fast, even the most well knowned players who are trying to let a mark on this so simple score... And the results are too often quite ugly... Here it's just what it should be, good tempo, nothing special, no demonstration, just a swan on a lake! bravo.
"Just a swan on a lake". Wonderful observation Altu. A swan does not do flourishes, just does...well. Swan stuff.
My thoughts exactly. Hard to find a cover that hasn’t been over-embellished. I really only like one other version on TH-cam but now this is another 😌
Yes, this is a humble, and perfect, version, and most true to the composer's intentions.
Ego from performers trying to add their unique spin has often ruined the cadence.
Keyboardist flapping for a liftoff is a particular peeve of mine!
I play cello for one year and a half.
Now I started to play piano.
Am 14 year old. Thank for music
Enjoy it ❤
Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you.
I’ve looked for years for a rendition of the Swan that is technically clear, where I can actually see the hand and finger movements, hear the nuances of the music and picture the music as it’s played... No one before now has done this - they’re either too fast, too active, or you can’t see their hands clearly.
Thank you so much. This is beautifully played AND enormously helpful to cellists who need to see where they might be making a mistake - or who just want to learn the piece and find it useful to see it played :)
Wonderful performance.
Indeed. Looking for the same thing, and here it is.
He plays so beautifully!!!
They both do.
yes!
My God....... just beautiful.... thank you
The beauty of this piece is overwhelming!
A heavily bearded, mustachioed Frenchman composed this, in 1886, when men were at their most masculine. Yet, the tenderness is certainly more sublime than anything else spiritually in this century.
Uploads like this make TH-cam exciting. Thank you for the wonderful performance, Saens-Seans was a genius!
...my idea of couple goals. So beautiful.
Hahaha!
SAME!!!!!
Nana Shimura Marry me!

Beautiful! Saint-Saens is an amazing composer and is severely underrated
i know. i feel you and i love it so much. nothing in my exitance of 25 years has made me feel as much as the swan.
I don’t know why, but my heart bruises every time I listen to this music. God bless Saint-Säens and this wonderful couple of interpreters!
So melancholy and so beautiful.
Reminds me of when I watched a ballerina playing a swan, dance to it in the 1960’s on TV.
With my family who are all passed now.😢
I've played piano for 14 years but all I want is to learn cello
I feel you !!!!! And i have been for 14 years too :)
Laura Ev I actually just got a cello last week and started lessons :) it is a lot harder than it looks though..
I have a friend that plays it and... I will hate the part that the piano never has ! It sounds okey ... Sometimes hahahaha
Good luck !! In a few months I believe you will play very well.
(i tried it and... Well, I'm a pianist hahahaha)
Emily cello is probably the most beautiful instrument to play I absolutely love my cello :) it is anything but boring !
tenrifesea
Really? Because it looks very hard.
By the way, how are you doing?
Such a beautiful song, this made me cry❤
I'm learning this piece for the first time as an intermediate cellist, because my teacher wants to challenge (torture) me. I really appreciate the way you film your videos, with a nice straight-on view of Patrick's cello and his hands. His technique is inspiring, and it's interesting to observe his choices in bowing and fingering. So much to learn from.
It's also a really beautiful rendition of the piece, just like always.
The power of music
I WANT MORE CLASSICAL PIECES PLEAAAASE
YOU'RE AWSOME

+Al pianoxis ca s appelle Brooklyn Classical ;)

i seriously dont know why this amazing duo doesn't have millions of subscribers by now. such great talents 💖
I remember hearing this the day after my grandmother passed away. Its now forever going to be her memorial in my mind.
So I cry! Both excellent musicians, Perfectly in tune!
Wow! Magnificent, bravo! "The Swan" is one of my all time favorites, especially as a piano & cello duo. It is amazing that a husband and wife duo of musicians can rise to this level of talent and perfection to play this piece so majestically! Ever since Ukrainian ice skater Oksana Serhiyivna Baiul-Farina won the Olympics to this piece in 1994 I have been smitten by the memory of her performance and choreography on the ice accompanied by this exact rendition of "The Swan" on that memorable day! The way Oksana perfectly mimicked a real Swan in her skating routine will never be forgotten by me. And now Brooklyn Duo's performance just adds to the pleasure of that memory. Thank you both for a fantastic experience. May God bless you both!
This was absolutely beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes and I could feel my heart beat slightly faster. That was one of the most heart felt pieces of music I have ever listened to.
i think this is my most favorite rendition/performance of this piece
Brings a tear to my eyes
Beautiful man. This is what life is about.
I had to smile when I saw this as I've just started to learn the swan for my grade 7 cello!
Jane Fulton Same! I'm gonna do mine at christmas:)
+fantasticharriet Any tips for a pre-grade one cellist? X3
Sanderson Girl Try to get private lessons and make sure whenever you play, you hold the cello and bow correctly or they'll mark you down in exams:)
Thank you! This advise will be a great help x3
+Jane Fulton Wow.. Small world... Same here, along with Bach's Suite in G (Prelude)
Divine Creatures. Thanks from Italy.
One of my favorite musicians - beautiful is all I can say.
This is hearth breaking....in the most beautiful way.
Wonderful, ...this beautiful rendition moved me to tears. ♡
May God bless your hands
This,folks, is what the youtube loop function was made for. How beautiful!!
My mom used to play this to calm me down. RIP momma I love and miss you every day.
beautiful people who play beautiful music. thank you
Just did this one on the flute with a harp and violinist accompanying me! I love this song so much. The cello has always been one of my favorite instruments and this song just reiterated that statment. The emotion erupted. Absolutely perfect. ❤❤
Brooklyn Duo plays "The Swan" impeccably! So beautiful! Bravo!
I want this played at my wedding
Agreed.
Same, I also want it when I pass
Runaway Cooki3 my wife and I chose this awesome piece of music for our wedding last September. Sublime.❤❤❤
Hey how was the wedding?
Really good. I play the cello and it is very hard to get that confidence and clarity, but also the delicacy.
delicatissimo, elegantissimo
I am learning this by watching your fingers. You are the teacher and as I wipe my eyes I thank you both for your lovely music.
Bernard
Benard Hunt a lot of music sheets available!
Awesome! This is one of the most beautiful renditions of this sublime, moving and soul stirring piece of music by Camille Saint-Saëns! Brooklyn Duo, you are amazing!
Your music is the only thing that can calm my anxiety, thank you for this x
I've been listening to this non-stop. Absolutely beautiful!
Just lovely.
This cellist is amazing! Such expressiveness! I love it!
So far, my favourite version, just lovely!
Musical genius happens when one can turn small things of daily life into beautiful music.
How incredibly moving. I can't imagine the feeling you two must have had performing this haunting piece together. To play something so moving...being in such harmony with one another must take you to another level of intimacy. To wind your feelings and emotions around one another as you sculpt these beautiful sounds, seemingly out of nothing. What a lovely thing to be able to experience. You are so very fortunate. Sadly It is something that the majority of people will never know. But it is better to have observed such, than never to have been able to experience it at all. Thank you.
The melancoly in this song makes me cry EVERYTIME I watch it! You are AMAZING! Thanks for this! ❤
Over the years, I heard many versions of this amazing piece. Most (if not all) of them, have missed the point. I have never been slightly as excited as I should have been, but that was before I discovered you two. I can feel your soul in this piece, and it's like falling in love with music all over again.
Great job, thanks for this. keep up the good music!
I was classically trained in ballet, and I thought every ounce of this music had been wrung out of it for me. Nope. Guess not. It was beautiful and stunning. Like I was hearing it again - for the first time... with tears in my eyes.
Oh my God, that is so beautiful. I have only discovered you two on TH-cam in the last hour or so, and have been completely enthralled and in tears listening to your beautiful music.
One of the most moving and beautiful pieces of music ever! Well done!
oh my gosh, SO BEAUTIFUL! i play this on the piano
I'm learning it right now

I played that on the cello about 2 years ago
Love the accompaniment
My favourite cover from you guys - i just keep coming back to it every couple of months to hear it again. Superb rendition xx
Why does this make me cry? Evokes so much emotion...
