...and this one is in the high key of F! This piece was never performed in Bach's lifetime. Noone really knows why, but I'd bet one reason was because it was too hard or expensive to find a clarino trumpeter with the chops to play in key of F.
Playing the baroque trumpet is easy.....you just have to study it all of your life. Playing the piece more easily dates to about 1903 when the valved piccolo trumpet in B Flat made its appearance in Belgium made by Mahillion. Prior to that time trumpeters often omitted portions and accentuated the high portion. Recordings have been made with high saxophone, etc. Vacchiano and Freistadt recorded a good version for Columbia in about 1948. Withe the advent of the 3 and than 4 valve piccolo trumpet...by, Selmer, Benge Yamaha, Courtois, F. Besson,etc. , et al...Playing a piccolo trumpet is now within the reach of those who want to play baroque compositions. But something is lost in comparison with the slightly modified baroque trumpet....IMO.
@@normancanter1 Yes, the term "Bach trumpet" is known all over the place, just ... there were no Bach trumpets available at the time of the great master ... showing once more that the Master made almost superhuman demands on the musicians of his time ... What fortune that today, we have masters of their instruments who are able to revive this heavenly music in a way befitting its grandeur ...
This is perhaps one of the most difficult and challenging trumpet parts ever written and it is very difficult and challenging on a modern instrument, let alone a baroque natural trumpet. This is an exceptional performance.
That final chord really took me by surprise! No rall and almost staccato! Any trumpeter who undertakes to play this piece has to have balls of steel. Bach is merciless with his players.
The nature of the instrumentation is obviously one that would not have balance. The brisk tempo really highlights the Italian style that Bach might have intended. The brightness of the flute, the warmth of the oboe, the lightness of the violin and the boldness and articulation of the trumpet really makes a blend of colour. A brilliant performance! Well done!
I know! Growing up in a classical-music-performing family, I learned that professional baroque trumpeters were, as far as I knew, the only pros who were allowed slipups, because the instrument was so difficult and temperamental.
This was the piece of music that got me into classical music! The first time I heard it I was absolutely blown away, and never tire of hearing it to this day! And that was over 50 years ago!
Beautiful recording of the second Brandenburg concerto. Baroque trumpets are completely different from modern trumpets as they have no valves. I heard this version yesterday evening 4th of October in Tivoli Vredenburg. The NBE had a whole concert with 1 first Brandenburg concerto 2 third Brandenburg concerto 3 oboe concerto Bach Pause 4 fifth suite 5 fourth Brandenburg concerto 6 second Brandenburg concerto
About a time!!! Since I discovered this page I've been waiting for this concert. Superb perfomance. Bach never died and he never will. His spirit will live forever in his music. Now I will be expecting for Brandemburg N1
It's not everyday that you get to hear this piece played with one instrument per part - such a delightfully transparent yet characterful texture. Bravi tutti!
I remember taking tonal theory in college and listening to this piece specifically - the one that Harnoncourt recorded with period instruments. I can hear every voice as clearly as I could with the Harnoncourt recording. I wish this was the recording that was put on the Voyager. How crisp and clear its mandate is!
I don't quite agree with some of the criticisms voiced below. Yes the tempo is a bit fast, especially in I, but it doesn't fall into frantic "keep-up" that we often hear in this work. Mostly, because of the superb control of that Baroque trumpet. Taming that beast is a chore! What I hear is a subtle blending of the four "solo" instruments in a way not heard with the use of a valved trumpet with its harsher sound. I liked it! But do check out the Orchestra Mozart/Abbado version here on YT for a different and equally superb rendition.
@@MarkGeelen78 I wonder if he may had been a student of Friedemann Immer? He's a renowned German instructor of the instrument and one of its most recorded players.
@@douro20 nope, Neil is a colleague and I am very sure he did not study under Friedemann. Neil was thought in the UK on a four hole trumpet and not on the three hole system like friedemann plays.
not completely "valve-less" per se; the trumpet he's playing has vent holes which he uses with the right hand which change the pitch to access cleaner harmonics, the real deal that people used to play back in the day is a natural trumpet which has no such vent holes. also the technique of lipping higher notes is already present on the modern trumpet, but it's generally limited to octaves
More shots of this amazing trumpet player, please!! Yes, he's not as animated as everyone else, but that's because his instrument is probably one of the least forgiving of the lot. That's a natural trumpet (no valves), so it's all lip and breath control moving between those notes. The little holes for the right hand just tweak the tuning for modern ears. A wonderful performance. Time to donate again to NBS!
Yeah he’s incredible. To wildly digress, it’s strange and funny that when baroque performers are animated, it’s always the exact same way. It’s that very particular bouncy yet restrained swishing upper body motion. I swear it’s a subconscious meme that caught on at some point and now becomes ingrained in musicians who spend enough time with serious baroque ensembles. It’s qualitatively different from the expressive movement you see in performers of other styles. It could be the particular dance-based rhythmic character of the music, but it seems too idiosyncratic to just be a purely instinctive human reaction to pulse.
Actually it's a Baroque Trumpet, which has holes instead of valves. Players of the Natural tend to hold the trumpet in one hand to show that they don't need finger holes.
Thrilling and wonderful. As always, the little core 'orchestra' of NBS (led by Sato) is exemplary - perhaps a bit quicker than I ( or Bach?) might expect. Their 'guest', The fabulous Neil Brough - incredible.We were so lucky to have him and two young pupils/students of his, for the performance of cantatas from the Christmas oratorio, with our choir in Frome (somerset) in December 2019. He's world class -- his obbligato playing for 'Grosse Herr' was out of this world! There is a 'Prom' on You Tube where he is performing this piece for Gardiner.
Wow ! what a Joy to hear them, and what a Joy they reflect when playing (even if it's probably the hardest thing to do) The Baroque instruments are amazing, and the performers too.
Fantastic performance! I loved it all, including the lively tempi. I do wish that there had been more video attention tor the current soloist, though. Just suggesting. Thanks for a real treat!
After all of the warranted praise of the musicianship, I have to comment upon the sound recording in mixing. Walking down a busy road with inexpensive earbuds, I'm able to follow the baseline of the harpsichord during the allegro movements! Making a recording for a studio monitor is one thing, but to achieve this on simple portable earbuds is Magic indeed. I've not enjoyed a recording of this piece, until this version for all the reasons. When I see the video on a large screen I expect I'll appreciate the videographer's work just as much!
Une superbe performance, et une mention particuliere au trompetiste hors-pair, Neil Brough, qui est tout simplement fantastique! Merci a toute.s pour ce merveilleux moment.
Written music specifies each note and the duration for the notes. Computers can play it. Interesting then that virtuoso musicians produce life and feeling and variety to the music! The Netherlands produces so many amazing things! Arguably the BEST nation on Earth?
Wow. Playing this on a period or period reproduction trumpet? My. That is hard but played so very well. And the entire ensemble is (as always) excellent. Thank you for continuing to work on recording all of Bach's music. Soul music.
"Okay, I've got violin, recorder and oboe. I know what this baby needs! More really high trumpet!" If ever there was a combination of instruments that just shouldn't work this is it. But of course Bach makes it not only work, but make it sound like the most natural thing in the world. Like, where are all the other trumpet and recorder concerti?
Magnífica asociación instrumental que no es fácil tener a nuestro alcance y que nos regala caricias para el alma que nos reconfortan enormemente. Infinitas gracias por compartirla. ¡FELICITACIONES POR DOQUIER!❤💜💚💛💙🌝⚘🌞🌙🎶
This is one of the most technically difficult pieces written for trumpet of all time. Bravo to the trumpet player for his 10,000 hours of practice (likely way more) to be able to accomplish such a feat. The lip trills at the extreme range of the instrument are particularly difficult and he accomplishes them well. However, I'm not a historian, but I cannot imagine this is the sound for which Bach was aiming. Trills performed on a valved piccolo trumpet would be much more in line with the trills of the other instruments. It may be an anachronism, but valved piccolo trumpet, with exquisite tone, becomes indistinguishable from the oboe except in certain climax moments (3:10) when the trumpet emerges as the dominant instrument. I think Wynton Marsalis' recording of this piece is the pinnacle of trumpet playing. I don't mean to sound critical of these phenomenal musicians but I present my comments more for discussion.
The piccolo trumpet was not invented until about 170 years after this music was written, and nothing other than valveless natural trumpets existed in Bach's day. Valved brass instruments of any kind did not appear until almost 100 years later. It is quite unlikely he had anything other than this in mind. Personally I much prefer the broader, softer tone of the natural trumpet with it's lower overtones compared to the piccolo which is 1/3 the length and to me has an unpleasant shrill and piercing tone, but I suppose that is personal choice. There are some who say this was actually supposed to be played an octave lower on a 12ft instrument, possibly even horn, but I do not think they are right.
Soli Deo Gloria !! ... WOW, what a musical feast ... The greatest Master of all Musicians must have had a particularly good reason to write such incredibly festive music ... Eleven minutes and all is said and done that could musically and possibly be said and done ... Yet, how interesting and surprising that exactly in this most colourful of all Brandenburg concertos, the director apparently chose a virtually black-white rendering of the video ... That being said, it is at the same time the only down-side of this lovely recording that I could possibly think of ...
Lebhafte und wunderschöne Aufführung dieses kompakten und fein komponierten Konzerts mit seidigem doch gut phrasiertem Ton der technisch perfekten Solovioline sowie gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Originalinstrumente. Der zweite Satz klingt echt schön und auch melodisch. Der geniale Solist/Dirigent leitet das kompakte und ausgezeichnete Barockensemble im relativ schnellen Tempo und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Einfach wundervoll!
Wonderful!! Another superb performance. I'll be honest though, I clicked because I thought Paul Giamatti was playing trumpet lol. Greetings from Los Angeles!!
0:07 Allegro
4:41 Andante
8:07 Allegro assai
Oh my gosh, finally! I’ve been eagerly waiting for this one! I’m gonna listen to it while driving on my way to school :)
Hello talented fellows, long time no see. Welcome Bach... and this time with this majestic masterpiece. Thank you.
Grazie a tutti voi della Netherlands Bach Society, siete meravigliosi! Wonderful music.
Moments are many,the thing is not to forget the moments that are gratness and joyfully to bring them on.
The performance on the baroque trumpet is absolutely fantastic !
the trumpet performance is outstanding, absolutely spot-on
What an amazing instrumental blend .
...and this one is in the high key of F!

Can't imagine a life without Bach
This is a perfect performance of the second Brandenburg concerto. The trumpet sounds superb because of the talented trumpet player Neil Brough.
Pupil of legendary Mike Laird :)
Bravo Neil. Superb
That final chord really took me by surprise! No rall and almost staccato! Any trumpeter who undertakes to play this piece has to have balls of steel. Bach is merciless with his players.
No. 2 is my favorite of the Brandenburgs - I love the way the trumpet and violin tonalities play off each other.
It is mi favorite piece of music of all time!
I never tire of it!
The nature of the instrumentation is obviously one that would not have balance. The brisk tempo really highlights the Italian style that Bach might have intended. The brightness of the flute, the warmth of the oboe, the lightness of the violin and the boldness and articulation of the trumpet really makes a blend of colour. A brilliant performance! Well done!
Depends on where the trumpet player is positioned.
I can't believe the baroque trumpet live playing is clearly and accurately like this.
I know! Growing up in a classical-music-performing family, I learned that professional baroque trumpeters were, as far as I knew, the only pros who were allowed slipups, because the instrument was so difficult and temperamental.
That's some trumpet playing! Bravo to everyone!!!
What an exquisite performance of a masterpiece by extraordinary musicians on instruments with living sound.... Bravo!
I once heard this work, and I felt emotions that were so deep that I can not name it....
This was the piece of music that got me into classical music! The first time I heard it I was absolutely blown away, and never tire of hearing it to this day!
And that was over 50 years ago!
Congratulations to the trumpet soloist, magnificent.
Mr. Brough, toute mon admiration. Performance éblouissante. Bravo.
Beautiful recording of the second Brandenburg concerto. Baroque trumpets are completely different from modern trumpets as they have no valves. I heard this version yesterday evening 4th of October in Tivoli Vredenburg. The NBE had a whole concert with

probably have to wait another year. they posted 3 back in sep 2020

Bach is alive... Thanks for your music
I love the classy black and white! Just like they used to do it back in the 18th century.
The 18th century was in technicolor.....our imagination is in black and white.
Playing that valve-less trumpet, and doing so musically, looks like the hardest thing to do in the entire world.
Neil Brough is a wonderful player and yes, it is very hard to do this musically and especially in a mostly live setting.
@@MarkGeelen78 I wonder if he may had been a student of Friedemann Immer? He's a renowned German instructor of the instrument and one of its most recorded players.
@@douro20 nope, Neil is a colleague and I am very sure he did not study under Friedemann. Neil was thought in the UK on a four hole trumpet and not on the three hole system like friedemann plays.
This valve-less trumpet is usually called "clarina" or "clarin". In the Early music ensembles at least.
not completely "valve-less" per se; the trumpet he's playing has vent holes which he uses with the right hand which change the pitch to access cleaner harmonics, the real deal that people used to play back in the day is a natural trumpet which has no such vent holes.

何十回も聴いてますが、本当に良い演奏です。１番もお願いします。
Finally, absolutely marvelous and truly refreshing for the soul. Thank you NBS and Mr Brough for this performance.
Lovely music,my Lunch is complete;what a pleasure to rejoice with those who rejoice.
Marvelous! You are such an incredible association!
Thank you so much for posting this, only one more Brandenburg concerto to be released.
Thrilling and wonderful. As always, the little core 'orchestra' of NBS (led by Sato) is exemplary - perhaps a bit quicker than I ( or Bach?) might expect.

th-cam.com/video/RNiKx8yHp1w/w-d-xo.html
In Frome? 😮 I grew up in Frome and would not have expected this performed there. Out of interest, where?
Not this piece Ian - as noted above, Bach's Christmas oratorio in Trinity Church Frome The Oakfield Choir and a 'pick up' Baroque orchestra.
Wow ! what a Joy to hear them, and what a Joy they reflect when playing (even if it's probably the hardest thing to do) The Baroque instruments are amazing, and the performers too.
Brill trumpet playing from Neil Brough. 😄❤️🇬🇧⭐️
Fantastic performance! I loved it all, including the lively tempi. I do wish that there had been more video attention tor the current soloist, though. Just suggesting. Thanks for a real treat!
Prachtig. Ook zo’n lekkere walking base van het clavecimbel in het andante met daarboven afwisselend de verschillende instrumenten. Wat een feest.
Gracefully and nimbly done. This concerto more than any of the Brandenburg demonstrates the dance paradigm of the Baroque style.
Interesting to learn!
I've been eagerly antipating NBS' recording of my favorite Brandenburg concerto. Love that third mov. ending that completely threw off the audience😂👍
The Netherlands Bach-zaar of renewed renditions and great instumentists!
Netherlands Bach spoils us once again. Inspiring, superb.

What a wonderful performance ! Thank you so much for giving a such amazing performance ! Warm greetings from California.
Put me in tears!
Awsome trumpet esp. on the 3rd mvmnt!
Thank you NBS for a wonderful Bach performance🍃
Une superbe performance, et une mention particuliere au trompetiste hors-pair, Neil Brough, qui est tout simplement fantastique!
Merci a toute.s pour ce merveilleux moment.
best version out there - these great musicians nailed it as always - bedankt!
Emocionante interpretación .Todos los instrumentistas perfectos. La interpretación de la trompeta barroca maravillosa
Очень живое и вдохновляющее исполнение! Хочется слушать и слушать!

Delightful, uplifting for the spirit ! Thanks!
Gracias a la Sociedad Holandesa BACH ,por este Concierto número 2 de Brandeburgo tan magnifícamente interpretado.Buenísimo pero distinto.
Beautiful trumpet work! GOD bless you Neil, and NBS in the name of Jesus!😁
THANK YOU!!! I've been awaiting this one. It competes with No3 for my favorite of the Brandenburgs.
Wow, Wow, Wow...!
Absolute Harmony...!!
Thanks NBS, Greetings and Blessings...!!!
P.D. WOW, WOW, WOW...!!!
My favorite Brandenburg-beautiful performance!
Been waiting for this!

Wonderful tempo!
Pràchtige uitvoering. Voor mij dè favoriet van deze serie!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING THIS FOR GOD KNOWS HOW LONG
I'm full of hardest things to do;but now I know for sure I deserve a piece of delightfully music to my ears.
We are a family together and live in the world of Bach...🤍
Magnífica asociación instrumental que no es fácil tener a nuestro alcance y que nos regala caricias para el alma que nos reconfortan enormemente. Infinitas gracias por compartirla. ¡FELICITACIONES POR DOQUIER!❤💜💚💛💙🌝⚘🌞🌙🎶
NBS is one miracle after another.
Excellent start to my morning! Thank you for sharing, simply beautiful!
Finally! Been waiting for you guys to do this for a long time!
Brilliant, bold, and beautiful performance, people!
Sin palabras. Viva Bach y la madre que lo parió.
Amazing the sound and velocity of baroque trumpet
😭😭😭😭😭👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 lloro de emoción. MAGNA. MUY MAGNA. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Have been listening to this since I was a 9 y/o. Beautiful rendition ❤❤!
Wonderful Music of Bach
Quel bonheur ! Quelle vivacité et fluidité! Magnifique ! (Belle vidéo qui plus est )

Muy bueno , excelente.Alegra la vida escucharlo.
I was waiting for the #2! Worth it!
Was diese 6 Musiker auf die Bühne zaubern ist überwältigend.
Amazing! Thanks so much.

Fantastic job!!!
Superb!!!
