Bach - Orchestral Suite no. 3 in D major BWV 1068 - Mortensen | Netherlands Bach Society

- It is an anachronism to call this festive Suite no. 3 in D major, performed here by the Netherlands Bach Society conducted by Lars Ulrik Mortensen for All of Bach, 'orchestral'. There are no trumpets, timpani or even oboes in this performance, as Bach only added these instruments around 1730. Mortensen reduces the line up to a minimum and does not regret the loss of the timbre of the wind instruments in the least: with just strings left, the music sounds sleek and transparent.
Recorded for the project All of Bach on 15 October 2017 at Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, Amsterdam. If you want to help us complete All of Bach, please subscribe to our channel bit.ly/2vhCeFB and consider donating bit.ly/2uZuMj5.

Lieldestructor no it’s air
To the first person who replied to this comment - yes, it's called an air, not an aria! Google "Air on the G String" if you don't believe me!
Torture to me ears.
why don't you update another one, but more orchestral (ie with trumpets and timpani)
Hola
Over 50 years ago I started playing the violin, and still do. For the last twenty years or so I've been a member of a baroque orchestra. Today, we started rehearsals for our spring concerts. This amazing Bach suite is part of the program. So I started my Saturday morning with this wonderful, wonderful music. Of course, it being the first rehearsal things weren't perfect but the sheer joy being able to play this is beyond words. For me, it simply doesn't get any better than this. I am convinced that if every single human was able to experience this incredible feeling, with your soul in perfect peace and harmony this world would be in a much better state.
It's unbelievable how perfect this is! And we're able to listen to it as many times as we want. For FREE! Life can be so good.
I have a dream, walking Netherland's historical streets and listening NBS.
I feel these people are so talented and educated in their art, they make Bach so accessible to the world
RECO
They seem to be in a reverie as they play. Their animated interaction is fun to watch.
Nothing better than waking up to a new upload from the NBS. Thanks.
I live in California. I wish that with all the money being made in tech industry, that Silicon Valley, San Francisco, could produce such a set of performances as the NBS is creating here for the world to hear.
Voices Of Music ?
I work in the aforementioned tech industry and still wish for the same thing you said. This is such a beautiful performance!
@Fabian Sosa Escalada that's really a non sequitur, he's obviously saying that with all of that money it's quite sad to see what people are missing out on from a tech only focused country. kind of sucks these people don't really appreciate art like other countries do.
@Fabian Sosa Escalada I mean this country is pretty depressing, no actual funding of arts, impossible to find decent venues or concerts, extremely privatized arts system, just unfortunate we place value only in stem instead of arts when one actually introduces interesting and unique prospects into life. imagine a world without music lol.
@Fabian Sosa Escalada ? who has the money or time to randomly learn another language and move to another country? so tone deaf. it's as if you can want better in your own country, imagine if every fucking issue was solved with "MOVE TO ANOTHER ONE XD", terrible take bro.
I'm a huge J.S.Bach Enthusiast......and I've heard- so many many different versions of it, BUT THIS HERE WAS NOTHING BUT JUST BRILLIANT.......such a crisp and powerfull interpretation of his genious work ! BRAVISSIMO 👏
These are the greatest performances of Bach's music I've ever heard in my long life. They literally make me dance and cry.
I'm totaly agree, Paul 👍
I am with you brother...
Is it a little too emotional? The dynamics never stay still for more than one beat. Then all the sections sound the same and no contrast can be made between one section and another. Is this authentic style? All this gyrating does detract somewhat from the actual sound, I think. It is like a meal with too much seasoning.
@@cynic150 Bach said "Music is an agreeable harmony for the honor of God and the permissible delights of the soul", and you don't like it because this performance just did that to the most wonderful delights of the listeners???
@@classicalconcerto6742 Whatever turns you on. I did not say I do not like it. I just wanted to point out some technical negatives which may mar the video. What did Bach mean by "permissible delights of the soul"?
When Bach added wind instruments later to his wonderful suite he enhanced it without doubt, but it is good to hear the original and in some ways, listening at home in a small room the quietness of the strings is a blessing.
Of all the versions of Bach's 3rd Orchestral Suite that I've listened to, this one by the Netherlands Bach Society is the most joyful!!! Thank you and I love you all !!!
Exquisite
I agree! This is delightful, and is worth repeatedly listening to.
This is my favorite Bach piece. The melodies are so infectious and catchy.
Just started getting into classical music and feel lucky I've landed on this piece. So far Tchaikovsky's Symphony 5 and Brahms' Violin Concerto in D are my favorite. This is giving them both a run for their money. Incredible!!
I enjoy listening to this music. It brings peace to my soul. When I was a teenager I set my life goals, and sadly missed them, and one hurts the most. Not being the father I promise myself to be. As I continue to make ammends, there are moments of hurt and pain, and this music helps me heal.
💜🎵 yes
I feel you, deeply, fellow traveler
Also: My mother stopped listening after a lifetime of enjoyment, when her husband passed away. I hope to be able to reintroduce her in this lifetime to the healing beauty deapite loss.
Healing vibes friend.
💜
I can't tell you how grateful I am to NBS for making this available at such exquisite quality for millions to listen to online. Many, many, many thanks!
Bach..the soundtrack to the human experience
I told my wife that I wept when I heard this recently. I tried to explain that yes, I was emotional that day, but also that this is some of the most beautiful music in the world, and at that moment, it struck me deep in my soul. I hope she understood.
Someday, I will cross the Atlantic one more time, to Netherlands, to watch and to listen to the NBS play my beloved music of Johann Sebastian Bach....
Bravo! My Mother, Madelon Adler, went to Juilliard, when she was 17. A very gifted pianist. She taught me to be a very good pianist as well. The golden nugget I learned from her…She said “ Karen, play the piano, as if you are singing the music”. I became a dancer, instead. Ballet, not professional. But, it is still my love at age 65, I’m still dancing. Thank you for this Wonderful Performance ❤
I am used to hearing this work with oboes, trumpets and drums. But with the energy and passion of these performers such festive instruments are not missed !
More "pure" and sublime.
I love how happy Mr Mortensen looks when he conducts this
6:23
Now I finally know where AJR got the sound clip for their song “the good part”
It has always been a well-known musicological fact that the wind parts to BWV1068 are a later addition (in CPE Bach's hand and written between 1734 and 1738) to JSB's string parts (not later than 1731). For more information on the state and chronology of sources as well as possible consequences for the choice of performance medium, see also - in addition to the Rampe / Sackmann-book mentioned by Hans-Jörg Rechtsteiner in another thread - Joshua Rifkin: Besetzung - Entstehung - Überlieferung: Bemerkungen zur Ouvertüre BWV 1068 in Bach Jahrbuch 1997, p.169-176.
Thanks for these informations :-)
Thanks for this info. I’d always heard it with trumpets and temps and thought it was somewhat “un-Bach” sounding as the parts sounded rather superfluous. This version is wonderfully realized!
I never knew this. Thank you for the enlightenment, maestro.
This is an interesting performance of the BVW 1068 Ouverture. Thanks! When listening to this version, surprisingly enough the lack of wind instruments in the first movement doesn't bother me particularly.
In the three "dance movements", however, the lack of trumpets and timpany becomes very clear, thus stripping those movements of all festiveness. An interesting experiment no doubt, but not my favorite version of the BWV 1068 Orchestral Suite.
It was in the 1730s when Bach directed the Leipzig Collegium Musicum which gave weekly and biweekly concerts at Zimmermann's coffee house. The whole Bach family helped with copying music for performances of Bach's music. You will find parts in the hand CPE Bach, but that doesn't mean he composed it. Bach taught his sons the art of adding trumpet and timpani parts.
Music of Johann Sebastian Bach, the JOY of my life !!!
Thank you so much. This rendition of BWV 1068 and Air + brought me to tears. Beautiful is all that came to mind. Thank you so much.
Love the STRINGS! This is a heartbreakingly exquisite presentation and I'm hearing it on 3/21/22, Bach's (O.S.) birthday. Nothing like the confluence of beautiful music and happy coincidence!
Oh dear God! That gracious yet daring harpsichord transition before the very last sequence of Air left me in awe! ❤
¡El divino Bach!
¡El más grande de todos!
AB/DB.
¡¡¡Bravísimo!!!
¡Maravillosa interpretación!

I love classical music.
In Europe. on the subway, streets and other places, you can listen to classical music.
While reading a book or in the car.This is inspiring. Best regards
Most pure and beautiful suite, it has a lot of emocions in there, makes me wanna cry and laught in diferent times but with the same emocion, the MUSIC
Music of J S Bach brings heavenly joy to the world!!!
Air! 😍 I still remember hearing it when I walked my precious wife down the aisle 20 years ago. Remains on my personal top of all classical themes, beautifully interpreted here! Thanks!
i think the one in black played really well
Nah the one in black was better
@@Charlieb82 What are you smoking, I think the one in black is the best.....lol
this only shows what a miserable philistine you are, idiot. the one with the bow was clearly the superior player, anyone can hear that.
I remember studying the Gavotte I and II in a Suzuki viola book.
The man who played the harpsichord is king!
Lars Ulrich Mortensen. I heard him in Portugal some years ago conducting Bach concerts for 2 harpsichords
I read your comment before he came into the picture. When i finally saw him i had to laugh so hard. 😂
@@Suedetussy Why did you laugh? He's the conductor btw. That's why he's doing all the waving and hand motions.
You can tell by the way he moves and smiles that he's really feeling it even though he's probably heard this suite in its entirety hundreds of times and you can't help but love how ripe with passion he still is
Love the continuo Cellos and Double Bass, bravo Netherlands Bach Society, Amazing!!
I didn't even know we had a Bach society. Awesome!
What an enchanting version of the famous Air,the amazing Harpsichord part can be heard,really,really good,first class version.A+
Thanks for such wonderful performances of the great J.s. Bach’s superlative music, music that soars to such heights that we become eagles whirling through celestial bodies. I can’t even begin to describe the ecstasy my mind and soul experience in this dance of exuberance! Thank you NBS. Play on!
This performance is as beautiful as the suite itself ♥️
The poly-phonic theme after the intro of this 3rd Brandenburg Concerto, I consider as one of the most beautiful in all of the music of J.S. Bach !
Enjoy so many people enjoying Bach.
Adoro ver las expresiones y gestos de Ulrik Mortensen , representan exactamente como me siento al escuchar esta maravilla , simplemente fuera de este mundo ! ❤
Keep listening and listening and listening it!
far long the best performance i've ever heard. bravo chaps
I first heard this version performed by Ensemble Sonnerie and I LOVE IT! I do not miss the trumpets at all. I enjoyed the segue from the Bourrée to the Gigue as it propelled the momentum.
Sorry for my inadequate English. Just a few words about Air: Listen to the harpsichordist, the beauty of his improvisations, and the complimentary rhythm he play just before the repetition, at 9:08-11, YES! I believe the original tempo was even more fast, and they also play the piece with inégalité.......or maybe not?
Yes, I see what you mean about the harpsichord in the Air. It's beautiful. 😊
I would really love to hear the harpsichord better. I feel that all the music with this instrument is lost because we never hear it well enough. My opinion of course :)
@@Caroline1261 I don't really know anything about music but one thing I realized by going to see traditional interpretations of Bach is that the harpsichord is not a very loud instrument. This is why I paid extra to be in the front row.
@@thomasmccormack4796 :)
The best rendition of this suite I've ever heard!
Yeah i keep looking for good renditions. I hate it when it's slow and drags but this right here. 100
0:17 love this guy's moves
I live in CDMX AND I want to comment that this suite was The inspiration for to create the song A wither Shade a pale by The procul harum.
The best music to start a day. Your interpretation of Bach's music expresses exactly his idea about the art's benefits: praise of God, humility of mankind and joy of beauty.
Thanks for sharing your great enterprise.
Thanks for this wonderful performance!!!
The comfort of their spectacular performance is off the charts
The wonderfulness of Bach’s music is far superior splendor
Brilliant!!! Thank you for my happy morning coffee with the great classical music!!!
Rustic indeed Mr Mortensen. Bravo. And much more clarity of lines without woodwind and timpani. Love it!
The very popular Air is so beautiful ... Playing the keyboard (harpsichord) part and conducting, at the same time, is not an easy task. Mr. Mortensen makes it look easy. This version without the trumpets, timpani, oboes is interesting (he didn't write out those instruments' parts himself anyway), a little less flamboyant, yet great. Mr.Sato has a lot of work, he's everywhere. Bravi!!
Thank you for the opportunity to hear this beautiful presentation ♥
Just beautiful!!!!
Pure genius and joy, can anything be more beautiful than this
I LOVE that fast part that starts at 2:26
The Mortensen continuo accompaniment on the Air is simply a delight. Meaningful without being obtrusive. Maestro
Maravilloso!!!
BRAVÍSIMO 😃 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The perfect way to start my day
Fantastisch gespeeld heerlijke muziek
A remarkable interpretive achievement! It's fascinating to hear this suite without the oboes, trumpets and drums. Gone perhaps is some of that "towards heaven" feeling which we associate with D major and trumpets and drums, and which so memorably colour parts of the B minor mass and the Christmas Oratorio. But in exchange, we a hear performance in which the dance element, and the connection to the French baroque is brought vividly to life!
Es una preciosidad de interpretación, no hecho de menos las trompetas
Thanks, Netherlands Bach Society 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful music, beautiful performance ,beautiful players . What's not to like .Great sound and camera work. perfection.
Сюитно-партитное творчество Баха великолепно. Собственно, все сочинения Баха, относящиеся формально к эпохе барокко, по сути, по значимости своей выходят за рамки своей эпохи. Спасибо!
Came for the air and stayed for the suite. Bravo!
i love the video realisation showing the complicity between the muscians, thanks for all this which we can actually only see and listen by this way...
Absolutely fantastic. You really celebrate the music. Keep up your good work.
Brilliant performance! Bravo!
Very, very , very THANKS, Netherlands Bach Society!
Magnifique!!!
J.S. Bach merveilleux dans toutes ses dimension.
Just simply fantastic, in all respects.
Truly magnificent!!
Always a balm to the soul. Thank you so much for sharing these authentic and inspiring performances
Ohhhhhhh, the Aria... How many different melodic lines can we hear? Oh, my Bach, only an intelligent mind as well furnished as yours can conceive such deep and beautiful music... Thank you, AoB, for this wonderful performance. :)
What about the Gavottes? They're the most underrated parts of this music!
This massive 1960's hit, A Whiter Shade of Pale, is based on it - th-cam.com/video/CJxpKlTID2Q/w-d-xo.html&lc=UgwbVNmfPxn5fRgyY-94AaABAg.9NhIOmHbAuB9Nrq3sGnb8s
All said Chapeau, greatest pleasures done. Thank you all for this 🙏🏿💜
:09 - 2:26, the most beautiful sound in music history. Thank you Bach.
Simplesmente MARAVILHOSO
Se entregar e se deixar levar
Bach is always Bach, the best, absolutely!
Red Velvet's Intro was 6:18
This restores the soul!
Bach es tan genial. ❤
Quelle chef-d’œuvre exceptionnel de JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH, interprétation grandiose de NETHERLANDS BACH SOCIETY, dirigé par LARS ULRIK MORTENSEN bravo à tous.
After reading some of the comments here, I must add that the real question is not "to be or not to be" (i.e., with or without the timbre of the wind instruments) in this particular version of the suite, but: does this performance manages to transfer Bach's musical ideas at their best, no matter which colour/timbre/number of instruments participate in their realization. My answer is: Bravo to this performance! It did manage to transfer these ideas beautifully.
lmao
Kia ora from NZ. I check out one of your videos every day. You hit the sweet spot every time. Bravo! Brava!
Kia ora from Chch.
6:18 G strings Air is my best like！
매일 들어도 질리리 않는 멋진음악 ~ 바흐 !!!!!
이 근사하고 멋진 음악을 듣고 모두 행복하세요. ❤️
Such passion they play with!
Wonderful!!
exciting, energetic, beautiful
That man on the harpsischord is a true legend. What an enlighted performance❤
Beautiful
El esfuerzo de aprender Música y de interpretarla de esta manera tan soberbia y elegante es de los músicos y su equipo, pero creo que la recompensa es injustamente para los que la escuchamos sin saber ni entender muchas veces lo que oímos porque percibimos solo belleza. Bravo.
Congratulations! Excellent!
Finally, in the 21st Bach is fully understood.
Heard this song for long time but never knew these are from same suite. Delicate string sound and profound support for violins.
They are playing with their instrument and with their body . All together ! I like that so much
