Bach Brandenburg Concerto 2 - 3rd Movement

[TheSuitIsNOTBlack]

awesome playing! he makes it sound so effortless

[corrda1993]

1:31 i think the trumpet is lookin at more than just her violin :P

[hahkeystah]

Masterfully done! You can see each member's love and exuberance towards this piece. I love it.

[beatlesopera]

I like it this way with the trumpet as the main focus I know a lot purists disagree but i don't care

[SulfurCitizen]

Hearing this makes me proud to be human.

[clementia101]

the violinist is pretty (:

[ignorantpom]

@clementia101

you're not wrong...

[robertdevald]

What a nice song!

[classiccandle27]

I love how this orchestra filmed the soloists and ripieno group separately. Have a look at the first movement, it's so funny how each soloist walks around and even walks up the stairs when they play! hahaahaha~

[stephanesmeijer]

Good performance only a pity the recorder has been replaced by a flute :s

[IKilled007]

And let me say that the woman on the violin is very pretty.

[IKilled007]

8 people are deaf, uncultured louts who are dead inside.

[beatlesopera]

in my opinion if there is a definitive version of this particular concerto this is it.

[redbrian3655]

Is this the only concerto that you have with the Basel Radio Orchestra? The tempi are so relaxed and enjoyable... much like the tempi of earlier recordings. I like all versions, but this one hearkens me back to a gentler time in musicianship. Thank you.

[Musicalme96]

isnt "flauto/flute a bec" supposed to b a recorder, not a flute?

[DontBelieveJewsNews]

tragic that you have to go back to a 40 year old mono recording to see it played correctly at the originally intended tempo...thank monopoly and over commercialization of music by certain people in New York

[789cu]

There's also a great video of the German Brass doing this movement. Check it out!

[medusa2645]

how could anyone hate this song?

[seeker00101]

thumbs up if you think the violinist looks like electra from the world is no enough

[fivestander]

Who the hell disliked this? wait, i know: people who have no good taste in music, that's who.

[DGSE]

@fivestander lady gaga or rhyanna or stuff like that fan's i guess

[ourliladventures]

are the members of the orchestra still alive? because i want to talk and meet it .

[sarcasticasian]

pocket trumpet!

[gammarotor]

@sarcasticasian Piccolo Trumpet!

[timothyj1966]

perfect tempo......well done

[number1trumpet]

@mothtits966 I think it's too fast. Sounds like he's showing off going at that pace and trying to play all those high notes. Check out any of my videos for some proper horn playing. It's not all about technique - it's about getting a good sound and playing with feeling.

[sivadmas3]

Very fun . . . thank you 

[getschooled3000]

okay, i know there is supposed to be someone playing the recorder there somewhere

[jay1beaux]

boy, these musicians play this so great! thanx for posting

[DaAlzki7852]

They are all very skilled, I just think the oboe player is f-ing sick! He looks pretty funny, too! I would fondle the hot violinist, that is getting the close ups, and see if she would react to it while playing. Im sorry but the music just makes me think about sex.

[zaftra]

Never mind how it's played. Check out the chicks on the flute and violin. Woo Hoo

[classicvinylbiz]

H. von Karajan, 1966: Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 in F major, BWV 1047 - Allegro assai:

watch?v=CY5EleiLXcM

thanks and regards

[beatlesopera]

When was this film done 1970s?

[hostroute]

@beatlesopera 1981 or 1982 I think.

[gaemp]

nice violin player...:))))

[dabuzzer2]

Nice light touch on the trumpet

[andrewkicksmajorass]

that oboe player made me laugh in the beginning

[MAmyself]

They should have used a recorder instead of a transverse flute.

[Noncognitvist]

Good performance...but the THX 1138-esque bright white negative space is only slightly less creepy than the disturbing robotic looks on their faces...lol

[graciegollum56]

the oboe-player is so rad.

[andreidavidcandrianu]

best recording...

[MatthewThornton89]

Real men do it on a valveless trumpet

[Trompeter1971]

@MatthewThornton89 : Real men feel respect regarding such artists like Marc

Ullrich. He's also able to play the baroque trumpet, but

this is an early recording, so people usually have played with piccolo trumpet. Today al lot of trumpet players take the baroque trumpet because of the different sound.

[fiveup7]

Dang that violinist is good!

[jojijoji88]

Beautiful!

Beatrice and Bettina are Babes, too! - I mean they play Bach's Brandenburg Beautifully!

Anybody got Borodin's Baubles, Bangles and Bright Shining Beads for Big Band, called Borodin's Bongos and Big Bad Brass? No Balony!

'Bout time for me to Bail?

Bye-Bye...

Beer!

[lewisclark06]

it is a piccolo trumpet, built small to play high. he is quite good but not showing off because of the high notes

[natbrain]

For all those people who think this trumpeter is showing off, why don't you look at the actual music, and FOR THE PICCOLO TRUMPET MUSIC, JUST REMEMBER THAT THE MUSIC FOR THE PICCOLO TRUMPET IS WRITTEN ONE OCTAVE BELOW THE NOTE THAT IS HEARD. This piece was written like this, with every high note! There are only a handful of notes without leger lines. Most of the notes in the piece have at least two leger lines. So he's not showing off, just playing the piece how it was written!

[number1trumpet]

What's all this talk about "legers" and "piccolows" and "octaves" and blah blah blah...

Hey "gonadbrain", sounds to me like you're too bogged down in analyzing minute details to hear what's happening in the music. As I said before, what's important is the SOUND, not all this nonsense about theory and technical jargon.

[natbrain]

Wow, you're not a nice person. my point was not that. you said that this guy was showing off because he was playing so high, and i just wanted to say that he wasn't, because he's playing the song just the way it was written

[Lemontree23]

It's a bit to slow, but, the trumpet solo is of course very difficult... Great piece of music!

[softballchickchloe]

one of my favorite pieces

[Trombonist5]

I didn't know jerry trainor played the trumpet.

[LuigiScattagomazza]

Such an odd piece of film making. Dead pan humor at the end.

[MAEdalgo]

The flute player reminds me of Phylicia (Sp?) Rashad. The mother from the Cosby Show.

[guinguette07]

Score can be found at Andre's website

[DiazdelVivar]

Bach is a geniuos.. i like this version, most ppl play this very fast but the time here is perfect... I also liked also the violin player Bettina Boller, she is so beautiful!

[number1trumpet]

@DiazdelVivar Bach wasn't that great. I heard he was a litter bug and that he made too much noise when eating soup.

Having said that, this is a pretty good song although I think the trumpet player is showing off (no need for so many high notes).

[DiazdelVivar]

@number1trumpet to be honest I don't like too much the trompet here... he cuts notes wich should be longer, lots of them, taking out the energy, but the tempo is ok for me.. i didn't get your point of -there's no need for so many high notes... what year is this video?? someone knows??

[number1trumpet]

I just think it's showing off to be playing so high all the time. Check out any of my videos and you'll see that though I could go up into the higher registers if I felt like it, I stick to what is required by that specific song.

[natbrain]

@number1trumpet

have you bothered looking at the actual music. This was how it was written!!! With all the high notes!!! If you were looking at this piece for the piccolo trumpet, you must remember that all the notes are written one octave below the note that is actually heard! So, don't say that people who play this piece high are showing off, because that's the way Bach wrote this song. And i personally enjoy Bach's music, but you entitled to who you do and don't like

[porpoisefathom]

trumpet players are freaks of nature to play that high..not fair

but my fav instrument

[superman84241]

its a piccolo trumpet...its designed to play that high

[pchantreau]

Yes but all it does is facilitate fingerings, slotting, trills etc. If your lips can't produce the note, blowing in a picc won't change a thing. Marc Ullrich is simply awesome in this performance. Precision, clarity, pitch, ease, he hardly seems to put any pressure behind it. And Bettina Boller is not only superb in performance but also beautiful. Thanks to Gordon for another excellent vid.

[superman84241]

true true true you actually know what youre talking about...but smaller instruments require less air intensity to produce high notes...because they are smaller the vibrations inside the instrument are intensified and it makes it easy to play higher...but as you said if you cant produce the note playing the piccolo trumpet wont do anything more for you

[jlew180l]

true, but most humans aren't.

[JeanCamisa11]

só cara feia mas tocando vcs são lindos

[trumpetgirl76]

number1trumpet: that's how it's WRITTEN. he's playing as fast and as high as it's supposed to be played.....

[cezarw]

the music of the spheres

[6cuerdas6]

W O N D E R F U Lªªªª

Cesar Amaro

[Trompeter1971]

Why do they look so angry ? Such a wonderful performance... I believe, Bach would have it done the same way

[Jagtarro]

That's how high it's supposed to be played :/

[zander392]

that's how the song is written man... learn some literature

[chuckperuzzi]

ESPECTACULAR...

[roornc]

I ever win the lottery, I'm going to have a rededicate my vows and have the Brandenburg played for my wife to walk down the aisle.

That is a glorious piece of music.

[ProjectmixBros]

if i ever win the lottery im just gonna have maurice andre come on friday nights and just give private concerts. :-)

[MrLakerda]

i love all the haircut in this video and the way the trumpet player flurting bettina (violin player) at 1:29- 1:34.

[jesemus33]

Bettina Boller is hot as hell here

[fnog9]

0:10 - 0:15 LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!

[JurajIsamkral]

velmi pekne, wunderschoen, exquisite!!!

[matthieulele]

La mise en scène est vraiment drôle !

[flamingdingleberry]

This video is hilarious.

Complete musical clusterf**k at 2:08

The performance is quite nice, don't misunderstand! It's the video that cracks me up. I also love how they line them all up "voltron" style at the very end of the video.

Poor guys.

[Cherodar]

I find everything about this performance to be great aside from the lack of a harpsichord. Still though, they managed fine enough without it, I suppose.

[alejostreet]

can you see the STACATO on the Flute very nice

[JirSevd]

THAT IS EXACTLY HOW YOU PLAY THIS CONCERTO. Not too fast, not too slow.

[hostroute]

I totally agree. It sounds right at that speed. Some of the arly recordings of it are too slow and some of the recent ones are too fast. This performance feels right.

[JirSevd]

Exactly good thanks for having a brain. Allegro means bright and happy. So many people think it means fast fast fast. I hate those ignorant people.

[jackslasho]

@JirSevd although, no one really knows how this is meant to be played as bach didnt even play it so it was left up to the interpretation of the more modernistic orchestra's to how to it should be played

[oatboy]

Yeah that trumpet player is really freaking good.

[BrocoliSuportr]

Wow! the oboe part sounds so fresh and light. HOw can I get that effect??

[bhela]

hmm?? maybe with years of practice:)

[Thorozu]

This is probably one of the thoughest trumpet parts there is in the classical music (due to the insane height), now Marc Ullrich is doing an outstanding job here, but remember that this is music written in the baroque, and played on baroque instruments this is really tough.. There are two different inteprentations of the trumpet part here that you should listen to; one with Toshio Shimada and one with Gabriele Cassone. You will enjoy the one with Cassone, and your ears might hurt with Shimada ;)

[JirSevd]

I actually think the first movement of this concerto is harder but ya this is not easy either lol.

[socaltrumpet83]

Now this is what I call a music video. I'm dying to play the trumpet part myself. I'm surprised that in all 6 brandenburgs, this is the only one with trumpet. What I really like about his particular video is that the way it's shot is very Kubrick-esque, and I couldn't help but laugh at 2:02 where all four soloists are bunched together. Still a really cool video, adn an amazing concerto.

[dosergiobr]

Fantastic interpretation, great musicians.

Muito bom, excelente.

[caiogflopes]

que coisa mais brega! ridiculous!

[natemayfield]

Marc, absolutely fantastic playing!! Bravo!!

(PS: Thanks for the ride to the train station and coffee last year - I owe you one!)

[baretul]

BEAUTIFUL!!!

[Jagtarro]

Agreed! this is the very best

[siscokyd]

I think i want to start violin lessons!

[PiT40]

I prefer Maurice Andre's

[jjrivas69]

Great performance! the trumpetist is awesome

[Jagtarro]

awesome :)

[Musicuss]

Pauroso!!!!!!!!!!!! Grandi!

[alelopezsamame]

trumpet is perfect

[greg0804]

I like the violinist...the oboist looks like Gorilla Monsoon (old school wwf fans will know)

[poblivion]

lmao!!! @ Gorila Monsoon

[bambolinocrazystar]

yes i love and agree this comment, he is also for me the nicest one!!! love you marc!

[operawings]

Marc Ullrich is just an amazing trumpetist, a great baroque and jazz musician too!! and the nicest guy on the planet!!

bravo marc!!!
