Bach - Bwv1067 Orchestral Suite - 04 - Bourrée

[wholeinmytree]

i love the bassline, it's so simple, yet so genius!

[CaeloChantes]

Great! baroque is my favotite music, and Koopman is genious!

[1spiccatto]

Is it just me or is this interpretation tuned a half step lower?

[rustydog1236]

@1spiccatto That's cause it is! If it were me, it would tuned a half step lower still... at a=392

[tristan01101]

By far the most amazing version of this piece. Bach would be so happy.

[Sylvain894]

Wish i had such music notoriety ! This is an overture ''a la Francaise''; there is four of these and from 1 to 4, the second and third are the most played. One of these two included the «air on ''G'' string», and the other the famous «badinerie»flute challenge that features on next videos of this orchestral suite BWV 1067. Good earing !

BACH > GOD

[Romenadan]

If any one know what dvd this performance can be found on please let me know - I would love to get a hold of a copy~

[SimonWasAlreadyTaken]

@Romenadan

Can't seem to put links in here, but if you go onto amazon and put in something like Ton Koopman Bach Orchestral Suites in the DVD section, it should come up. It's basically called "J S Bach: 4 Orchestral Suites (Amstersdam Orchestra)"

[markpianoman]

Perfect!

[diarreacartman]

Bourreé means with butter?

[violinistx100]

@diarreacartman You're probably confusing the French word beurre with this word Bourreé, Bourreé is a french dance and beurre is the word for butter

[Bizzlefrits]

who is the conductor??

[Turangoth]

[ifyouwantbochin]

[malediktustmagot]

Tak tohle je opravdu vynikající skladba, super, no úžasné, nevšední zážitek!

[deblacki]

After hearing this you just want more. I love Bach, his music was (and is) so unique!

[Darkboy2525]

wouw bach such a great componist !

[Chikubinosuke]

i love this song, sounds so good

[spinoza1111]

Of course, Frederick the Great, modeled here as the flautiist, here, who doesn't play against the orchestra as he would in a concerto, was in modern terms a sublime bullshitter, one of Adorno's Germans who could not tell a lie he did not himself believe.

But: Frederick the Great no Hitler, merely a highly successful general willing to take casualties who had the bad taste to engage the enemy and win wars.

[sammyvvong]

what kind of flute is it? how much?

[Seretur00]

An awesome one. And a lot of awesomeness XD

[wcbroccoli]

Keep in mind that this is not a concerto for flute and strings.

Here, the flute part often doubles or closely overlaps, the 1st violin part.

[shaind]

Also, the this flute is an old flauto traverso, of which sound is quite small compared to the modern western concert flute.

[MASA92190]

This is very very good, but it seems like the harpsichord is just a little too loud compared to the flute.

[firebreathone2]

The harpsichord isn't too loud. I'm glad you can actually hear the harpsichord. You often miss the sound of the harpsichord in ,most "modern" performances and it's a shame.. So, no. this is just fine

[stargirlsusan]

@firebreathone2 yes i know, the harpischord deserves its place just like the rest of the intruments. what is this injustice.

[TwirlingGuy]

I confess I thought it was Peter Schickele at the harpsichord in the opening first seconds!:)

[emmysuperstar]

this is really good

[alra1975]

Magnificent.

[bungholitos]

OMG, this is amazing!

[lelilelu]

In France, OMG means "Observatoire de la Médecine Générale" ... I didn't understand in the first seconds
