[fourplusseven]

This seems to be the one I come back to.

I can't help smiling when I hear this.

[dkwonism]

Best for finale. 

[muziekacademiecello]

[juliengracq31]

Is he still playing on his Barak Norman's cello ?

[etparsons13]

@juliengracq31 . Yes I would definitely like this answered also :)

I haven't been playing cello very long, 4-5 years, however find myself in possession of one of Barak Norman's cellos, the label says 1706. Quite remarkable really

[alvarobitran]

Impresionante!!

[Shennnnnny]

incredible bow technique

[mrsonsai]

Take a look at that lady's bow at 0:20! So tense! Yikes!

[fercha90s]

that's because it's a baroque bow...

[mrsonsai]

Oh. Crazy stuff.

[celloz1]

nothing new, but I like it v

he makes an impression

[sjmh280491]

ooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhh yyyyyyyeeeeeeaaahhhhhh......

[hereyescio]

Can you tell me where is Mr Wispelwey in comparison to Han Na Chang today?? The man has NO sound at all !!! Pale? You are right ! He does have a very "pale" sound!

[Mizzles240]

han na chang needs to tune her c string my good sir...

[C0urante]

Mizzles240, you just made my day. And my week. And possibly even the month. THANK YOU.

[iWyke2]

@Mizzles240 HAN HA NEEDS TO BE IN TUNE IN GENERAL.

Listen to her Moses Variations on One String by Paganini

[jemlee1]

@Mizzles240 han na changs version is masterful, with amazing intonation, and is pure genius, c string? wot bout your g string? maybe thats a bit twisted!!!

[NickQue]

This is great! More people need to see this video!

[Natalejo]

Wispelway is GREAT!!!!! he is one of my favorites cellists!!! thanks for posting

[stavropol]

Never thought that I'd ever say this, but despite being so different, his Bach just wins me over each time I hear it. Few musicians have guts to express themselves on such level of artistic integrity.

[borttu]

he's great!! i've seen him live, playing beethoven and woww!!! just great!!!

[as334]

Wiespeley rocks man!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He´s one of my favorites!!! ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!!WHOEVER DISAGREES IS A DUMBASS!!!!

[cartmanbastard]

i want haydns sympfony 45 on youtube

[jameclark]

Pieter Wispelwey is a cellist -- a musician -- beyond compare. Thank you for seven minutes of him.

[PTCello]

Fantastic, just fantastic. The Cameraman should be shot. Just when the cellist is about to do an interesting or awkward passage, the camera cuts away...Much of the visuals were useless...but a marvelous performance. Who is it?

[morcillo]

Uno de los grandes Finales de la música clásica.

[HailasB]

awesome. Though some of his expressions remind me of someone in heroine withdrawal! :)

[claviolino]

thanx for answering me!go fucking all of you watching

[cellocorman]

he is using a modern bow... nice attitude you have there :-)

[sk8nruff]

Check out the tip, frog, length, and width of the stringing. I'm putting that style of bow somewhere around 1780-6. A friend of mine baby-sits his kids. How cool is that?

[ulrich290]

its barouque style instruments.

[sk8nruff]

nope. modern instruments, baroque, and Wispy's classical, bows. Shame too. That concerto rocks, like all Haydn, on period instruments, especially winds.

[ulrich290]

kk.. thx??

[creamofcardstv]

Your video clip is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on being Baching Mad on Classical Music Composer trading cards (issued in 1912): Haydn, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert and many more included.

[claviolino]

can you tell me if the cello player is using a normal bow or a classic period's one!?i don't see very well in the clip...thanx

[babamgeliyor]

en buyuk, enduyarli muzisyenlerden biri. one of his best recordings is vivaldi sonatas... I recommend it to everybody... thanks for posting this

[montserrat85]

deslumbrante! este concierto es muy estimulante...!

[wafa1253]

the whole point of this concerto is how CLEAN can you play it? i think this is as clean as ive heard it by anyone. Practically NO scratches

[jamesdean2000]

where is the rest of the concert? whoever has it...fuckin´post it man!

[KoganSvetlanov]

Suck the cock of Rostropovich please....

[jojospacemonkey]

hahahaahahahahahahahahahahahah­aha that was a peach of a comment !

[junglefunny]

what's the difference in arguing between two ends of the performance scale? in the video of hanah chang at the age of 13, she displays little knowledge of the classical style, but is nevertheless awesome in her "monster cellist" qualities. wispelwei represents a completely different school. i like them both, although i wish hanah chang could learn to stop scratching so much.

however, she is an exciting, if slightly ferocious, cellist.

[bunabayashi]

Ms. Chang's performance is full of exuberance and youthful bravada... Mr. Wispelwey's performance is astoundingly sensitive and harmonious with the orchestra.

[atltrojan]

strongly agree with you cazam, she has played tow different times when she was 13 and about 4yrs ago with sinopoli

[cazam]

i like Han-na Chang's version better

[ANYULA]

Denle una cama elástica al director así también puede saltar para arriba además de a los costados. Un divino... pero nada como Du Pre para Elgar y Haydn.

[cravista]

Nice recording...but it's weird the using of baroque bows on the strings in the midle of a modern orchestra...but it's nice..

[ruichi76]

Comparing Chang to Wispelwey is just meanness and ridiculous. how can you talk about a 13 yrs old girl who has a stroke of genius to a fading musician(I know his fan would say something about it but then think about her age again in this performance). Even Wispelwey would admit that she is genius.

Furthermore, I believe that part of performing should often contain the power and passion, and she actually doninates for that.

[mdol]

Speaking as a professional cellist there is no camparison between the 2. I listened to both performances and Chang plays with little understanding or elegance and she is frequently out of tune. I've heard dogs bark Jingle bells but that doesn't mean it is music.

[CelloFiend]

Professional, eh? You know, you're insulting young cellists by brutally critisizing Han-na Changs's performance of it. Give her a smurfing break. She was THIRTEEN years old in that recording. I'm 13 and I'm learning this movement and I plan on playing it as she did. >:(

[patugi]

13? ha played it when i was 11

[CelloFiend]

That wasn't my point...besides, I've only been playing about 2 years.

[tastydonuts]

"fadiing musician"... wow... most great artists do not reach the peak of their career until at least Wispelwey's age. but maybe you are talking strictly about technicians, and not real artists.

[tastydonuts]

just out of curiosity, i checked out Chang's Haydn clip. meh... good technique, and not much else. yes yes, "but she is only 13," etc. etc... but before you go crowning her a "genius," go have a listen to Heifetz or Menuhin at age 13. with true genius there's no need to use age as an excuse for lack of musicianship.

[SejongDewang]

Why "better than Han-na Chang" ? Han-na was very young when she played Haydn. Wispelwey's got more experience and... I agree with pyja : Chang and Wispelwey have different approaches to music.

Uri-nara mansei ^^

[Stringman305]

I like Julian Lloyd Webber's too, though he's wearing a weird shirt!

[pyja]

Great playing!

[cello4ever]

wispelwey has far more control over the cello than Hanna. His sound is so much cleaner, but both of them still handle the cello very well. I love Wispelwey's smooth sound opposed to the conventional open, brilliant sound you would hear from Hanna or Rostropovich.

[pyja]

Why on earth do people compare cellists? It's one thing to have like a certain musician, but to compare with another musician is ridiculous.

Even more ridiculous is comparing Wispelwey with Chang, who have very different approaches to music.

[chenny16]

yes i agree, hanna chang's performance was technically precise in pretty much every way, but i guess thirteen is just not mature enough to play with the feeling that wispelway plays.

[triocasals]

True Haydn in style, tmepo, technique. Better than Han Na Chang

[mceduardo]

the name of this orchestra is the kings violin?

from canada?

[heimoT]

wispelway, the king!

[ina9]
