Wow! 😳Amazing! Those basses and notes go very deep into the soul. 😞Not forgetting the Chantarelle. Beautiful performance, Bernhard. Bravo! 👏Greetings from San Francisco, California, USA
Beautiful playing. The baroque lute is quickly becoming my favourite genre of music, it relaxes me, and puts my mind to peace. Thank you for this wonderful performance and I hope you can record many more.
***** Same XD. All i do all day is play video games, then take small brakes just to find some more music, then occasionally i'll do some homework due over break lol.
my my what a lovely sound..and a Sarabande....so well played. many thanks for this Bernhard. It should educate many who have only listened to Weiss... and Bach for that matter on the guitar.
Something in this recording remininds me of the first vinyl records of lute music I owned, almost 40 years ago. Rekindles a long-standing passion and makes me wish to start playing lute again. Very nice, thank you.
I have never heard anyone play the lute as marvelously as you. The way your notes come very clean and very emotional makes me think that the lute was probably one of the biggest advancements in human history.
@@bernhardhofstotter5547 You can pay me later 😎 Joking aside, I have this CD now, and it is excellent. I’ve also ordered you Lviv vinyl LP. Do you have any other albums on vinyl? Rob
Esta fue la obra de Weiss que melodicamente me hizo indagar para llegar a ella , la escuche dentro de varias sonatas y me resaltó este movimiento con 15 años.. pasaron 10, y creo que eres el único al cual se la escuche, cada nota es especial,
Awesome !!! Llena de armonía, de calma, de sentimiento en cada una de las notas. Perfecta interpretación de una de las más hermosas obras de S.L. Weiss. Gracias por subir este magnífico vídeo...
Really very beautiful. This is a stunning performance, a nicely-shot video and a very well-recorded sound as well. On all levels, this is the sort of thing to admire.
Diese Weigert-Laute gefällt mir noch besser als ein Widhalm-Modell. Schön ausgeglichene Frequenzen, aber knackig-brilliante Höhen. Die Rolex unter den Barocklauten😊

The two pieces were likely written at the exact same time, so I would be skeptical of claiming one being inspired by the other. They met themselves LONG after these pieces would have been written. It's entirely possible they were both drawing inspiration from the same source, or they just happened to write similar sounding music as they were both writing music in the same region in the exact same time period. But it's silly to look at this and try to point to one being inspired by the other.
Hi Bernhard, very beautiful and expressive performance. I've a question, what's the string length?.. the instrument seems little.. 9 tied frets only.. 66 cm perhaps?
Abso"lute"ly beautifully played ;-). I love the sound of your Lute. Who built your Lute? What builder is it modelled after? I'm in a position where I'm about to enter the world of Lute playing on the Baroque Lute. I'm simply in love with the sound and compositions for the Baroque Lute. Are you using plain gut strings? I do hope you have the time to answer. If not it's ok and thanks for your sharing and playing.
Thank you, the lute was built by Hendrik Hasenfuss. It is based on a lute by J.B. Weigert. I use gut strings from time to time but these days I mostly use plain synthetic ('multifilament') strings which work very well.
Thanks a lot for the info :-). I've seen H. Hassenfuss's website and the pictures of his Lutes are absolutely stunning. I think I'll contact him to get pricing info as there's none on his website. Are you satisfied with the Lute he built for you and how long did it take for him to deliver the
Sjamus2 the lutes made by h. hasenfuss are extremely resonant and a joy to play. I ordered mine a long time ago and do not know about current waiting times.

Absolutely love this. The lovely scene add so much to the mood.
This way one should play Weiss. Every sound is respected and found. Wonderful !
I wish I could play Weiss like this.
Thank you very much!!
Lately, I find myself drawn more and more to lute. Thank you for your wonderfully skilled performance.
+T Oadaly That's great to hear - thank you for listening!
+silvadesirenas v If you don't mind me asking. Where or how did you exactly learn how to play the lute?
+slycooper11892 I learned it from great teachers, studying at various conservatories in Europe.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful playing (and video production!)
Thank you very much for listening and watching!

Genial Maestro...felicidades por esta belleza de trabajo...
Muy buen video, maestro. Ojalá suba muchos más. Saludos.
why is it so beautiful? :'(
Felipe Espinola It touches the soul, does it not? :')
+Felipe Espinola I think it's a lot to do with the A tuned to 415 and not the current standard of 440. The flatter tone gives it a more natural sound.
+Ryan Mackner Why do you think 415 is flatter?
nebo vas it's a half step down, A would look like G#. It's just naturally flat
Very nice!
Thank you!
Thank you, touching us is music`s most noble gift!
Just beautiful!

0:45 Weiss obviously was inspired by the largo movement of Bach’s double violin concerto

Thank you!
how in the world would you play the strings not on the fret board???
Those strings are not stopped - I just pluck the open strings.
Beautiful playing Bernhard..Can you tell me where i can get a copy of this piece?i have searched in the moscow manuscript but no luck thank you
Hi Robin, Thank you for your comment! The Andante is on p. 23 of the Moscow MS. If you don't manage to find it, I can send you a scan.

I do not have his price list, but if you need more information please contact me through www.bernhardhofstotter.org
is that how people usually sit with lutes?
Yes, more or less like this.
It sounds great. But was he playing it live here?
No, he was not! :) The music is from my CD "Dresden - Moskau". Thank you for listening!

Yes, made by Hasenfuss, but a 13-course baroque lute.
Thank you!
silvadesirenas v what's the difference other than how it looks. Can you not play baroque music on an archlute? That's all I've ever seen it used for
+Themostamazinguy You can play baroque music on an archlute. The difference between the two types of lute is the tuning.
silvadesirenas v Yeah that's what i thought. I'm stuck in the renaissance for now but eventually i'll get a baroque lute XD
Baroque!
Thank you! :)
Molt bé!!!
+Nicolau Espinosa Thank you!
Okay, Ignatius J. Reilly.
Whats is this pice ?
It is a Sarabande by Silvius Leopold Weiss. The piece is contained in a manuscript preserved at the Glinka Museum in Moscow.
