Look at 2:48: I didn't know Charlie Sheen played the cello... lol... Very good performance, a little bit faster than I'm used to, but very good.

I'm going to be honest, I prefer this version over others because of the speed. While many are saying that it's too fast, I think it's more expressive with the descending runs towards the end of the piece. It always gives me chills! Beautiful nevertheless!!

@KingOfTheFiddle are you kidding me? our high school band is playing this song. and we may have a soprano sax playing the oboe part but she is doing just fine with the speed. this is not digitally accelerated. you're just an ignorant person who spits out shit trying to make others believe you know music.

[KingOfTheFiddle]

Can’t you idiots hear that this “phenomenal rendition” has been digitally modified and accelerated? Who the hell knows a oboist that can perform at that speed @ 0:55 and @ 1:00??? And this from a Baroque orchestra? BS!

@Bach1Beethoven lol

[Supermassively]

Ted Kirkpatrick's version is better.

Its a musical lock- Willy Wonka

[JoaeP2]

Not at all too fast. Also, so wonderfully precise, and the baroque instruments resonate the perfect amount and it's just beautiful.

Rachmaninov.
