Wow! Very nice. Listening to this recording is like eating a very rich pie or pudding! Just superb! I also really like the interpretation of tempos used in the piece.
You're an amazing player. I have listened to your 2003 recording for months on end to match your tone. I love how you make a bass sound so elegant and majestic. If you have time, could you link the piece so I can acquire it, this is something I have trying to get my hands, please and thank you, have a good day sir.
Bravo! And if you do a search on Alexander Lebedev, don’t confuse the composer with the Russian oligarch and former KGB officer who was put on Canada's sanctions list following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.
if you want to get smart on the net, then take the trouble to find out the real name of the composer first, LOL 😆😆😆😆 I think there is no need to stick politics everywhere, put politics up your ass
That notation is definitely not what he's playing. What a confusing mess. Maybe good for Piano. (no offense to pianos). Or maybe I'm bad at following. I played this before, and the music is not helpful for what I know (The no key doesn't help). (It's gorgeous playing tho)
@@BenBasstrombone The notes I guess are right (like I'm not critqueing the intonation or whatnot), it's just the notation is all off on the right (imo) (if this is you, you play freaking awesome, love your tone). I have no issues with how you play, I wish I played like you. This is like the best I've heard this played. My gripe was the written stuff Like it should probably be in a key first off. But like in bass clef I've never seen a G flat. Usually it's written as an F#. (I'm pretty sure it's all off because of the key, it might be E flat major, I'd have to dig through a pile to get to it. Like that long B natural after that 2/4 would be actually noted as a B natural so you'd know to do it out in 7th because B naturals are weird to us (b flat is normal to trombones and in first position). It really just comes out to readability and like, I don't think I've ever seen some of those note called out quite that way? if that makes sense. I'm in no way talking crap about the player, because, well, That was "holee--crap level of awesome". (I played this, and spent a year of my life trying to perfect this lol. This is better =p). My only thing is that because I played this before, I found the follow along music hard to go through.. and well I'd like to think I was still good, but yea, I'm not so w/e =p It's my bad. If you can play notation like that, more power to you. I'm not that good lol.
@@johngordon6526 There are several different editions of this piece. The one Mr. Van Dijk was playing was the original solo (I can tell because of the low Cb before the “tempo” in the beginning, and him playing 16th triplets after “Allegro Con Spirito”). The notation on the right looks 99% similar to the Ostrander edition (which accommodates single valve bass trombone since low Cb was not entirely possible on those horns, and instead of 16th triplets , its regular 16ths). I say 99% similar because in the actual ostrander edition, the low Cb is written as an Ab, and this notation had been edited to be a Cb. At the end of the day, it’s the same piece of music, just one was arranged just slightly different. It is confusing that there really isn’t a set key to the piece, like how it’s a minor in the beginning and then eb minor, C major, b minor, A major, etc.. In that case, you can’t really set a key signature up because it would look pretty messy and be too hard to read for the players. But in a theory perspective, any time there’s a resolution (like from a minor to eb minor just before the “tempo”), the notes will be written in that key, which is why Lebedev wrote a “C flat” instead of “B natural”. Hopefully this makes sense, or clears up any confusion!
@@BenBasstrombone Greetings from St. Petersburg, this is Fyodor, the trombonist from the Mariinsky Theatre. I'm glad to see and hear you, it's great that you're fine. Excellent performance, your signature timbre! I really noticed a couple of inconsistencies in the notes, you play correctly, but it's written differently. Bar 67, the last eighth is written A, G sounds. Bar 78, the last eighth is written C sharp, H sounds. Once again, you're playing absolutely right, there are mistakes in the music. Sorry for the bureaucracy, I hope that you will still please us with your art.
Beautiful arrangement and playing. A beautiful piece
Loved being able to follow along with music.❤

🙏 always nice to read people like my playing😉

Can you be more precise in telling what I play differently from what you see in the part.
Just curious!

@@Tromboneryan My bad, I love this piece don't get me wrong You're very correct, I'm in no way an expert. I love hearing it played though
