Ton Koopman - Dietrich Buxtehude/ Fuga

[Spudboy41]

too fast

[GJmusique]

with all due respect, he plays it as if its a typewriter :')

[marcoboer1234]

heerlijk!

[thecritiquevirtuoso]

I like listening to him speak Dutch.

[TheNautiluss]

The Great Ton...

[cazzie511]

Just watch that fingerwork!!!!!!! cazzie511

[Malloyism]

quite an old positive hes playing. Nowhere near the beautifull sound the modern one produce today. Better and more robust sound is required for the orchestral positives these days.

[koos1981]

@Malloyism Stupid comment. It is not a historic instrument in the first place. Further I have heard this organ in performances of the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra and its sound very robust indeed. I wonder why you state that 'better and more robust sound is required for orchestral positives these days'. Do you mean to disqualify the positive organs of Bach's age by that? That would be even more rediculous.

[Malloyism]

@koos1981 No mate. I think its simply my ear for music probably not quite as fine tuned as yours I admit. Maybe it what I detect to be a massive difference in how such a simple intrument as a Positive can be so varied in sound from orchestra to orchestra. Cheers

[EricHaverpowell]

Interesting - I've never heard one of these organs before

[dolofonos]

A delightful instrument; but I cannot enjoy Koopman, whom I seem to be listening to instead of the Music.

[koric64]

I loled so hard at 2:05 XD

[tristan01101]

.... wow, I would love to know what he's playing on

[serassi614]

Grande Ton!!!

Bellissimo l'organo**********

[Totma11]

A charming performance- a light buoyant, effervescent, and heady bouquet with hints of raspberry and blackberry on the palette. Lingering aftertastes of chocolate, leather, and Dutch tulips. Aged in portugese oak for 50 producing a wine much like a capricious concertina chianti.

[vitusfer]

es una maquina koopman el mejor

[Shredalist]

Wonderful playing from Ton, as always! What is that instrument called?

[Drakopulous]

@Shredalist positif

[jerlatti]

Does anyone know the name / number of this Fugue ?

[vluebeck]

@jerlatti check buxwv 174 in C major

[nunocarmona]

@jerlatti Fugue in C major. BuxWV174 I believe

[Violon16]

Da sieht und hört man den expressiven Cembalisten - mir tut die Truhenorgel ja schon ein wenig leid.

[NorbertZF]

Yes, I would really like to meet him AND Herr Leonhardt, someday, and play for them my own improvised fugues and etc.

[nunocarmona]

@NorbertZF And check out the new Leonhardt colleague in Neuie Kerk (Amsterdam) : Matteo Imbruno. He's a really amazing organ player. Search for his videos here on youtube.

[OrganoSerassi]

Eccezionale!! Superb!!

[litanijebral]

Exceptional character, I have to meet him one day.

[TheGuitarist365]
