Baroque And Blue

[gianfra1123]

I think that my dad was the best flute player of the world but now no

[GatameOne]

reminds me of charlie brown.

[TheClarabarreto]

Bolling e Rampal... combinação divina!!!!!!!!!

[longtalker]

Thank you so much for posting this video, this is one of my favourite musical works of all time!!

[claudio2carpediem]

this tune is just amazinggg!!!! awesome playing....

[fernandopox]

oh my god this is pornographic!!! :O

amazing!

[cox470]

@fernandopox I think the word you're looking for is 'orgasmic', but yes - I get your point.

[0solgil]

amazing

[artbymegcom]

The music of my childhood! So great to find this again. Its really dreamy!

[whitesymph]

I ve got a show on the radio in Greece for some years and this is my starting tune!I really like it and the listeners,too!Thanks, Claude!

[bbrannddX]

Wonderful. Sounds like Brubeck Quartet with flute instead of alto sax. Nice European blend of classical and jazz.

[Ineeee14]

I'm still practicing ;) I love to play this piece, but it's far from easy =D

[otherjoe1234]

love it

[takakococo]

COOL!!!! Wish I can play like this.......

[mrosok]

Weird, the sound and picture doesn't really add up, and I don't think it's a sync issue. It sounds like the original LP recording is superimposed over this video - the audio is as far as I can tell identical.

Still it's nice to see the composer and original performers play this piece :)

[Jlockfromhl]

just to let you all know, Bolling wrote this for Jean-Pierre Rampal [the flutist]. The entire Bolling Suite for Flute is amazing, but if you wanna see truly superior music just search Rampal into a musical recording database sometime!

[Sarolee13]

Perfecto! Excelente! Bravi!

[zeroangelcrystal]

These guys jazz it all the way!! LOVE IT!

[HaimMorElgarisi]

Amazing! these guys simply jazz this piece up perfectly!

[sdgakatbk]

This goes down SO nice!

[becalfaro]

Very nice! Loved it! How can I get the sheet of this song? Does anybody know?

[Janeway7de9]

Amo esta música y todas las piezas de Bolling...Admiro su talento y el de los virtuosos y apasionados músicos que lo han acompañado en sus diferentes álbumes...

[marcoscobbra]

By the way...Think´s for post Mr. CoronelMatrix!!!

[marcoscobbra]

The only thing that I can say is AWESOME!!!

does anybody have notes of this piece for flute..i would like to have them and i don't now enybody who have this notes...so...if somebody have this..can you pls answer me.. :S

[YadadaYadada]

I'm playing this for my recital on piano, and just to look at Claude Bolling's fingers in this video, it's absolutely amazing how nimble he is. Getting up to tempo is a challenge in and of itself, but he manages to get the 4-1-4-3-2-1 fingering in on the fourths coming down with such awe-inspiring grace, there is no way M. Bolling is less than the top of world class piano talent.

[argentoki]

looks like he's playing from the side of his mouth either way he's probably the best flautist ever, yeah better then IA haha just kidding

[bubbleteacraver101]

i disagree,i would have to say James Galway is the best Flautist ever

[bubbleteacraver101]

but then again...jean pierre is really good :]

[flowerdove2168]

Good shit, Maynard.

[aserfax101]

I did this song for my end of year music performance exam last year.

I'm playing the Veloce for my final year music performance exam this year... though not nearly as well as Rampall!!!

It's such a beautiful Suite =]

[glimmer88]

This song has such great memories for me. I played this song at a Solo and Ensemble cometition in school. I have listened to the whole album over and over and over again and got to see Rampal play ithe entire Suite at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta years ago. What a fantastic song and collection.

[viflouz]

j'adore mes respect

[CARBAU57]

I felt in love with this album since the first time I heard it. That means much to me.

[glimmer88]

I did too. I heard it in high school and I cannot tell you how many times I have listened to it, Hundreds. We had Sentimentale played at my sister's wedding, we loved it so much.

[muzakfreak93]

His posture is horrible. But no matter what his posture, he sounds great.

[Spyke1029]

i dont know why but Rampal just gives off such an aura of happiness when he plays that is so awesome

[PrinCiPeSSaCLaUdiA90]

simply awesome..!

[frozenpandaman]

I love Jean-Pierre Rampal performing this. :)

[wangflute]

太好了  美！！

[1ckh]

정말 좋아요

[alexfsq]

Só lembra a minha infância!

Ouvi muito esse disco (de vinil é claro)!

Agradeço ao meu pai por ter me dado a oportunidade de ouvir sempre ótimas músicas!

Ajudou a formar minha cultura musical!

[lorac0102]

Pretty good! It is fun and pleasure to practise! :D I have lovely memories on it! :o)

[Massachef]

i love how Rampal plays, all you see are his fingers move and all you hear is that beautiful sound. There's hardly any movement with his embouchure. I wish i could've gotten a chance to see him live.

[RudlandSalt]

Thanks for posting this video. Its fantastic to actually see Claude Bolling and Jean Piere Rampal performing this live and from memory. I learnt the piano part to this piece in 2000 (in London) at the same time a music teacher learnt the flute part (in New Jersey). We had to rehearse "virtually" 3000 miles apart. When I flew over to the US, we had just one play through and then had to perform Baroque and Blue to an audience of 400. Fortunately it came together really well and was great fun.

[glimmer88]

I also played this at a competition with a hired pianist. It truly is a fun fun song to play. I just love how it flows...... The hardest part for me to play was the very last part!!

[Patrickillian]

muito bom!

[thetinypurplefishes]

Beautiful!!

[dkfhs89]

Thanks for sharing. Is the piano Claude Bolling and the flute Jean Pierre? I've always thought Claude Bolling was the flute. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[d1o2n3k4e5y6s7]

Jean-Pierre Rampal was the greatest and most famous flutist of the 20th century, paving the way for Galway.

[dkfhs89]

thanks! :>

[glimmer88]

I got to see JPR perform this entire Suite at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta years ago, and then got to meet him afterwards and get his autograph. When I saw the program and saw they were playing this I was SO excited!! It was truly awesome.

[dobby911]

no... Claude Bolling play the piano, Jean Pierre play the Flute! Now you know! jejejeje

[nonsequiturr]

This is a great recording and video!

[xmichelleeee]

his flute is at like a 45 degree angle with the floor..too low.

but the music is really nice - im learning this song right now on flute.

[PlatinumFlute]

but he was the best....

[thelowmax]

He could have it coming out of his butt and it wouldn't make a difference. As long as he's getting that perfect tone out of his flute, who cares? You're criticism/observation seems petty and moot.

[thisisaBADpolicy]

Although it is pretty interesting how much variation there is in experts' form. I love to watch them.

(The same is true of piano players - which is something I know a lot more about than flute)

[plantageneto09]

semplicemente sublime...
