PAQUITO D'RIVERA: "MOZART'S ADAGIO"

[ritaelizz]

WOW ITS AMAZING I REALLY LOVE THIS MAN

[KingDA25]

I don't care what anyone says this is an awesome performance. If Mozart was so great as a musician then he would've loved this. Music is all about interpretation and individual style as well as building on the past. I think Mozart would've been proud of himself to know that his music was used as a stepping stone for an advancement in music. I think any musician would feel that way. It just solidifies his place among the greatest of all time.

[Isaiasfresa]

El mejor sin duda alguna

[malvinero1996]

2nd part: people forget that "classical music" in the age of Mozart wasn't the stuck up, un-creative, non improvisational discipline it has become in the 20th. Century. At that time, composers played, and composers improvised, and Mozart himself wouldn't have had any problems with taking somebody else's theme and "playing" with it. One of his works was a set of variations on an obscene German folk song, so, so much for "purity" and respect ;-)

[pablozinge]

It is so fascinating to see how many comments this video has attracted. Beyond my wildest dreams. I have refrained from commenting about it myself (the "poster"). I just would like to say that for those who feel outraged about a musician doing jazz variations on a "sacred" classical piece, that Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Brahms, Bach, etc., didn't hesitate to write variations on other composers' themes, and to do them in THEIR own style, often very different from the original. So there!

[FiXmAsTeR]

Paquito D´Rivera es un espectáculo tocando, pero, por dios, que esto no se vuelva a repetir. Vaya forma de frivolizar y banalizar a Mozart. Si el compositor lo escribió de una forma, que se respete. Otra cosa es hacer una cadencia, pero una versión sobre algo tan, tan, tan, tan, tocado........................­...

[mirelysmorgan]

por dios, como que frivolizar a mozart... me parece genial lo que hace!!

[abelglezglez]

Muchas Gracias a Paquito D'Rivera al director Pablo Zinger y a los demás intérpretes por hacer posible este concierto en Tenerife. Tuve la suerte de poder gozar de él. Impresionante!

[andreicamataru]

paquito is the man......... and all the clasic music guys who don t respect him....you can suck him!!!!!!!!!! his a creative man and improviser not robot like others!!!

[mirelysmorgan]

I agree

[aladjan01]

Paquito D Rivera -is a Genius

[highschoolking]

Racist? No, you've got that wrong too. We're talking about music making here not race. There are great and not great players of all races.

Whatever instrument I might play or wherever I have done my playing is beside the point.

Chill out jcrd9. Not all criticisms are predicated upon race.

[highschoolking]

googoo. Not true. I just happen to know what good playing both Classical AND jazz sound like.

And incidentally speaking of still being in highschool, the correct contraction for the words "you are" is not "your"; it is "YOU'RE".

[highschoolking]

You are mistaken. It is precisely Paquito that I AM thinking of and I meant all that I said, It's simply bad music making, mediocre clarinet playing and dumb jazz ideas and execution.

I had read that as a youth you were enamored of Benny Goodman but nothing of his elegance, swing, imagination or clarinet abilities rubbed off on you.

[googo151]

@highschoolking Sounds like your still in Highschool!

[jcrd9]

@highschoolking YOU ARE A MOTHER FLOWER RACIST THAT ENVY PAQUITO D RIVERA.I WONDER=WHAT INSTRUMENT DO YOU PLAY?

[jcrd9]

@highschoolking YOU ARE A MOTHER FLOWER RACIST THAT ENVY PAQUITO D RIVERA.I WONDER=WHAT INSTRUMENT DO YOU PLAY?TELL ME ,WHERE HAVE YOU PLAY IF YOU EVER?

[highschoolking]

What a load of insulting crap this is. Awful spready, grating sound with the dumbest conception of what improvisation or jazz is supposed to sound like. And the colossal audacity to do this to Mozart of all the ethereal and sublime composers!

Did you really think your Rossi clarinet was gonna help anything?

The only thing worse than bad taste is no taste at all and you got it kid.

Nothing can other than your silence.

[FunkTrunk5]

@highschoolking stop thinking of it as mozart, start thinking of it as PAQUITO!

[ThePalomino2010]

@highschoolking thepalomino2010 tus palabras suenan como un musico frustrado pobre de ti en verdad no difrutas la musica tienes k aprender a ser humilde antes k nada y respetar a los demas su trabajo

[alonsotoro]

@ThePalomino2010 aprende algún idioma y luego opinas.

[banshee9312]

escuchen panamerica,pero escuhenla completa de paquito

[davidalejandrocano]

MAESTRO DE MAESTROooo exeelentee.....  sin duda eL meJor ...... PakItO d Rivera

[cesax72]

Paquito, eres único. Y ojala tengamos tu arte por mucho mas tiempo porque inspiras a muchas personas y nos haces erizar la piel. De Tunja. Colombia

[nedyalkopetkov]

this is the worst thing Iäve heard in a years Please don't make fun woth Mozart this is b******T

[jcgonz31]

@nedyalkopetkov If you can't hear MUSIC or can't identified a jewel please step aside and don't make any comments, I felt a mix of sorry and shame for you when I read your comment.

[mpopakumugero]

Después de escuchar adagio con Paquito D'Rivera, suena insípido el adagio tal como lo compuso Mozart y lo interpretan solista virtuoso y orquesta sinfónica que lo acompaña. ¡Qué matices! ¡Qué colores! ¡Cómo hace CANTAR al instrumento!

[gensaxs]

No comparto la opinión de franciscocio, ya que le interpretación es genial, además estoy seguro que si Mozart hubiera sido contemporáneo sería un gran jazzista, pero veo que siempre tendría sus salieris!!!!!

[franciscocio]

@gensaxs

si Mozart estuviera vivo, habría muerto al escuchar esto.

No, fuera de chiste, admiro a Paco pero en su territorio.

Hasta ahora el único clarinetista que para mí se desarrolla bien en el jazz y en la clásica es Eddie Daniels. Me parece que es muy difícil compatibilizar eso, ¿has escuchado el concierto de Mozart interpretado por Paquito? es una mala interpretación, con todo el respeto que este grande merece.

[ortizelmusico]

maravilloso Don Paco

[amramjose]

excelente! gracias por la interpretacion!

[oscarex072]

maestro....!!!!

[pirri98]

Fenomeno!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[estherlilliam1]

Maestro Paquito, le quedo preciosa esa interpretacion, mis respetos siempre!

Lily

[franciscocio]

Me agrada Paquito, pero no comparto esta interpretación, ¡es de muy mal gusto! Mejor que se dedique al jazz, ¡lo hace muy bien! bueno, siempre está bien experimentar.

[alucardthetremere]

Gracias por la publicación, realmente estremece hasta la ultima fibra de mi ser cuando la escucho. Sabe alguien que orquesta acompaña al maestro?

[kawy29]

@alucardthetremere Lo acompaña la Orquesta Sinfonica de Tenerife, concierto celebrado en el Auditorio de Tenerife, fué magnifico. Un saludo

[alevideosweb]

Brilliant!! I highly recommend the Irakere version of this

[okicu]

PURE MADNESS!!! Grab a 40-something piece symphony, Mozart, Jazz, ... its so crazy its genius..... It would be a great honor to have the chance to share the stage with him!!!!

[juanruiztsax]

Paquito sos un grande, Mozart te agradeceria por la version... Creo que con esta version le brindaste todo el respeto que se merece el maestro mozart y todos los que estudiamos sobre el...

[frisimota]

Maestro, es un deleite escuchar esta música tan hermosa! Pese a lo que digan algunas personas cuyo criterio respeto pero no apoyo, yo creo que es válido realizar interpretaciones personales de las obras de los grandes maestros, y por eso lo felicito a usted y a Paquito por un trabajo formidable

[tnornapful]

Señor instrumentista, que grande que es Paquito realmente. Me impresionan sus solos, detalladamente trabajados

[jasonleos]

k forma de pasarse a mozart por los wevos...

y paquito el si puede... el come aparte =)

[saxs1993]

exelente video

[Winnina93]

Allucinante! :D

[SERGIOS79]

¡¡LO MAXIMO!!

[funconductor]

AMEN, Brother Mozart!!!!

Great stuff on the keys, Alex!

[kleinBion]

La verdad que un bajón, lo escucho, pero no hay caso, pobre paquito y pobre Mozart. Cuando la gente hace estas cosas con la musica, no hay con que darle. Mezclar tan boludamente musica sinfónica y jazz, todo en armonía triádica, es una idiotez.

[kleinBion]

La verdad que Paquito es de los mejores clarineetistas de nuestro tiempo y obviamente Mozart de los compositores más aclamados de todos los tiempos. Pero al pobre adagio lo destruyeron, si quisiera escuchar esta baboseada, y que arruinan la musica sinfónica, escucharía al zapato de Claude Bolling o al zopenco de Lissieur. Malísimo.

[casco6sg]

No me canso de escucharlo! Es impresionante.

[kojicho]

He is the best spirit medium for us to communicate with Amadeus...

[patomusic]

El mejor de los mejores. paquito es el vintista a que todos aspiramos llegara

[Kubalivre]
