Bach - Organ Sinfonia from Cantata No. 169

[KerryAbernethy]

beautiful <3

[Sylvain894]

Easier on a guitar with 1/2 step lower; beautiful organ sound but volume lower or played pianissimo !

If someone coughs, I'm outta here

[quinn244]

ahh there's nothing like bach

[SilverlakeDehners]

Lovely performance...but it's time to knock down the concrete wall that hides the musicians!

[Renshen1957]

@SilverlakeDehners That's there to keep the people in the mosh pit from colliding with the musicians. Makes it harder to stage dive.

[moreak]

Un regalo como lo es la obra de Bach entera.

[pepitho]

Perfecto, nítido, dulce... ¡genial!

[javierpe9103]

ahhhhh que buen bach calido y armonico.felicitaciones

[quetzalandino]

Hermosa viola da gamba, la combinación tímbrica con los violines y el oboe es perfecta.

[rscott77x]

Beautiful performance by musicians that love their art. Inspiring. We should all have such passion for our art!

[owatson322utube]

Beautiful performance of such fantastic music.

[Raymondo30837]

A true feast of Bach, played at its best. Thanks again.

[gingervytis]

Organ score performed by E. Manual Pedalle.

[rudly]

is this an Electronic organ?,I do see organ pipes,

[jimbobboyorganist]

A never tiring sound---I want to bring you all home with me. Thanks, again

[jimbobboyorganist]

Amazing live performance--I need to look for more videos by the New Trinity Baroque...just a very lovely sound, folks!

[EsperanzaGalera]

Just awesome... He was the best Musician in the history of Music in this world.

[magafable]

Great video !

This cantata exists as concerto in F for oboe, strings and continuo (it's exactly the same but the oboe play the organ's part)

It's great too but very hard for the oboe, who can't breathe ! ;-)

[Raymondo30837]

Super interpretation of this cantata. Thanks

[phillynn79]

[toml714]

Very popular. It is easy to see why.

Bach a tutti!

[jorgealbertobaron]

BACH, GRANDE

[jorgealbertobaron]

GRAN OBRA DE BACH

[Raymondo30837]

I think the performance and sounds from the whole ensemble is a pleasure to listen to and watch. Thank you

[BayAreaBiker2001]

The Stanford Memorial Church has 3 organs. The G. Donald Harris organ is suitable for music from the late 19th-early 20th century. The Fisk organ is suitable for music from the 17th-18th centuries, and can switch between equal temperment and mean-tone temperment. There is also a positive organ.

[fagottehautboy]

E major isn't not an easy key...for anyone, even an hautboy d'amore. I'm guessing this was a Leipzig transposition; the band plays in E and the organ in D. Where did I stick that 460 instrument *looks around*. Do you know the d'amore version?

[wcbroccoli]

The only "d'amore version" I know is a reconstruction of the original.

It's not clear what key and solo instrument were actually used in the original.

Some say woodwind. Others say viola.

I'd love to hear it on viola!

[wcbroccoli]

The original I mentioned is, of course, lost.

I don't have the scores, but I believe the left hand part of this organ version in D merely doubles the bass line of the continuo.

But in the later version in E for harpsichord, when the left hand part is often independent of the continuo bass line.

[wcbroccoli]

I meant to say that in the later version in E for harpsichord he gave the harpsichord and independent left hand part.

[lovesGenet]

al this exists in Atlanta but not in westPalm Beach despite previous efforts atBaroque opera ! amazing to me.

[Branchporter]

You can see this little organ and it's specification by doing a search for "continuo organ for new trinity baroque"

[octave4]

Has anyone noted that there is an organ playing witht he strings and such. Now take a look at the organ console - No one is there. Imagine building an organ with two console, one is electric. So why did anyone waste time building a tracker organ if it is played with pull down magnets?

[newtrinitybaroque]

Indeed the organ behind is a tracker organ, but the organ that is played is a [pipe] chamber organ built by Robin Jennings who also built "Bach Organ" for John Eliot Gardiner and two chamber organs for Robert King (of The King's Consort). The small organ was used here because we perform at Baroque pitch A=415 Hz, which is 1/2 step lower than today's modern pitch. The big organ behind is built to play at 440 Hz, and it would be difficult to play it 1/2 step lower.

[octave4]

I See. Interesting. There are so many of these Pseudo-trackers being built in the Neo Baroque style (whish is to say Not Baroque and anything but tracker) with limited use and very harsh sound. I am of the old school and rather like a more Universal style so the church doesn;t have to buy 4 organs to play 4 different styles of music. Thank you for the info. Nice job with the music

[wcbroccoli]

LOL It sounds like your from the school that says to hell with authenticity; let's play all music of all periods on modern instruments, without any regard to authenticity, so that musicians don't have to learn to play period instruments or period styles.

[octave4]

WC - With 400 years of changes in form & process of making instruments how do we have Authenticity. We must also have the same acoustics in which the original music, and instruments on which it was played. How far can Authenticity be pushed before it becomes impractical or impossible? Can an orchestra have complete sets of instruments to play each piece in a concert? Must all buildings duplicate concert halls built in 1700?

[wcbroccoli]

Should the performers also where period costumes since these might also affect the acoustics?

You seem to be making the absurd suggestion that unless we can reproduce all the acoustics down to the buildings, then we should abandon all efforts to achieve authenticity.

[wcbroccoli]

Some of the music Bach wrote for the court at Coethen, he later performed in Zimmermann's coffeehouse!

I doubt the coffee house had the same acoustics as Prince Leopold's court.

In Bach's day, his music was never performed in concert halls.

Original instruments DO exist, and faithful copies CAN and ARE made from originals.

[BayAreaBiker2001]

Bach's music is quite effective on modern instruments, even though he never intended it so. I'm sure the piece would sound interesting if the organ part were played on a Hammond.

[wcbroccoli]

Oh, I've heard Bach on so-called "modern" instruments. Funny that the only concession they make to authenticity is a harpsichord.

But I don't like the sound of metal strings (1950s). Or the articulation of "modern" 19th c. bows. Or the bland, blended sound of "modern" 19th c. winds.

It makes no sense to me for a 21st c. ensemble to play 18th c. music on mid-late 19th c. instruments.

Why settle for mere effectiveness

when I can hear something that sounds better?

[wcbroccoli]

Modern & period instrument sound quite different & I don't like the sound of modern instruments.

With so many excellent, historically informed, period instrument ensembles to choose from, we no longer need to settle for the so-called "modern" instruments, which really aren't modern at all; they're late 19 th. c.

We could play viol consort music on "modern" 19 th. c violins, violas & cellos strung /w wire or nylon.

But silly us, we actually use viols strung /w gut or wire spun gut.

[wcbroccoli]

Or how about the organs rock bands use?

An electrifired violins like Yanni?

[bachkirche]

Crap. You made me throw up my expensive dinner all over the floor. Thanks a lot, dude.

[TheBitterWeed]

And the Beatles. You can only use Vox.

[1113agm]

Your comment makes me want to throw up...you are boorish.

[wcbroccoli]

I think the Leipzig council that hired Bach to provide their church music, and with whom he struggled with just to get the minimal resources needed to perform it, would agree with your idea about a one-size-fits-all organ to play the music.

[OapostropheC]

What a great version! Thanks for posting this, it's my favorite Bach Cantata. I know it's been recorded with piano instead of harpsichord. Does anyone know who released that version?

[ShatteredScarlet]

Are you in this symphony, newtrinitybaroque?

[ShatteredScarlet]

Bach is also a sexy beast ;D
