Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 in F major BWV 1047 - 1. Allegro - 2. Andante

[@CziffraTheThird]

That recorder makes me want to swell up and cry. Seriously, wow...what a sublimely beautiful instrument!

[@envitech02]

Ooohhhh!!! What a lively performance!!! This is the music I want to wake up to every morning!!!!! Great way to start the day!!!!

[@Cherylyuennable]

This is the piece which you would never get fed of , no matter how many times you've listened to it ! LOVE BACH !!

[@francoiacobacci6891]

Meraviglioso! Manfred Clement assolutamente fantastico.

[@polymath7]

Since first discovering Bach as a teenager in the late nineties, I estimate must now have listened to the Brandenburgs ~500-600 times, and they show no sign yet of becoming at all tiresome. For me perhaps the most satisfying part of the first movement is the "denouement" that begins at 3:25. The way in which Bach resolves and ties off the various contrapuntal threads he's interwoven with such magnificent daedality is a thing of thing of awesome, exquisite, jaw-dropping beauty and perfection.

[@mariocorrieri]

una dinamica che interpreta appieno lo spirito di Bach

[@riccardopusceddu6232]

Sublime, just sublime!

[@jonahansen]

You can actually see a hint of a smile on Richter's face during this one!

[@fctrumpet]

Pierre Thibaud in his prime! I treasure the lesson I had with him.

[@korea_trip3603]

So great...

[@marttikallio1139]

Makes me allways almost to drop few tears !

[@kattula76]

well i agree my friend, just unbeatable, insuperable.......etc. vehemently beautiful

[@TheHungryHun]

amazing video and music... in fact this happens to be my favorite of musical compositions; I love Bach. Thanks for uploading this in addition to all the other Munich Orchestra recordings!

[@carlossaldarriaga4126]

Excelente.. Lo mejor.

Brilliant...simply BRILLIANT!!!! :-)))))

Riqueza no conjunto, extraordinário.

[@gaudenziolocatelli7473]

Perfect...thibaud.

[@TenorCantusFirmus]

Richter had an advantage on many today's "Baroque" Orchestra conductors: his gesture was clear and well studied, he wasn't a singer or an instrumentalist also improvising himself as something similar to a conductor. But, please, say me that recorder wasn't in plastic O_O O_O ...

[@robynsalain]

magnifique et impérissable

[@kristiinaapajalahti4768]

I don´t remember if this was playd in 60´ or early 70´ in Finland. Still, this take me back to Hetta.

[@nia_nah]

Delightful!

[@juathuan]

Hans (the recorder player) really can project the instrument loud enough to match the piccolo trumpet!! i wonder what model/brand he is using?

[@rayancharafeddine4982]

It's a bit of the inverse as well. The trumpefist can play quietly enough not to drown the recorder

[@shin-i-chikozima]

To play Bach's works is the tip - top admiration and celebration to God From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵 Which national are you watching this video ？

[@Funkadelic3]

Pierre Thibaud is using a short bell Bb Piccolo trumpet made by Selmer that he helped design.

[@Wardzon]

Magical...

[@hananokuni2580]

Karl seems to have a touch of gray hair on his head, so I'd say late 1970's. Still, this is a SUPERB performance. I could listen to it all day ^^

[@thomaslovse4329]

This was played in April 1969, sorry for being 10 years late. Lol

[@santiagona6497]

bellísima obra. ese bach era satánico... genial!!

[@KoxxMobilhome]

I know this music since I was a child and still ev'rytime I hear it......so beautiful!

[@SergeyAtmozh]

Первая часть 2-го концерта нанесена на золотую пластинку "Вояджера" среди пары десятков лучших музыкальных произведений Земли. В этом году (2013) "Вояджер" - вышел за пределы Солнечной системы. The first part of the 2nd concert deposited on a gold plate "Voyager" among a couple of dozen best music of the earth. This year (2013), "Voyager" - came out of the Solar System.

[@aleccejkraftcoff5955]

Hey! Thank you so much! Greatly!👏🌍💎🌐🌈

[@99davinci]

an alien told me about this music he said it was intelligent

[@madrid7790]

me too, an alien brought me here.

[@madrid7790]

An Alien brought me here. He said he heard this on Voyager.

[@reant79]

Richter no tiene nada de músico, él es teólogo de la música... al octavo cielo con la música de Bach

[@weltgeist2604]

The first movement is used at the beginning of lectures from The Teaching Company, so it always reminds me of antiquity and the Ancient Greeks.

[@weltgeist2604]

2:50 is basically me listening to this piece.

[@taichingkan79]

According to the video description no piccolos were used, however.

[@sst568]

Richter Rules !

[@juerbert1]

How many points on the Richter scale ?

[@sst568]

@@juerbert1 10!

[@envitech02]

Karl Richter is totally absorbed in the Brandenburg's. When not playing the harpsichord, he directs.

[@MrOtorongo]

Richter... ALWAYS.

[@Cloudlesssoul]

Throughout the years of their existence they try to entertain and fill the void of their dull and difficult existence. The only kindness that fate - the all too unhuman and non-sentient fate - dealt them was the card of death. These humans felt death to be something to be afeard of, but in reality it is their greatest reprieve - and it is open to them all.

[@taichingkan79]

The trumpet used here was a period instrument, therefore it does sound a bit different from the trumpet we are used to.

[@Michael_Arnold]

Lol!

[@j-mharari3374]

[@omaryiohamdanyio9161]

😍😍😍Wow

[@johnsmith21197]

I've never heard of an ivory recorder. I too have noticed, though, that the matter Mr. Linde's recorder is composed of strangely resembles plastic although this is obviously not the case.

[@thomaslovse4329]

Maybe because ivory would be illegal now?

[@junglekuratz]

I didn't know that Buddy Holly could play such a mean recorder!

[@juerbert1]

Reincarnation you believe in ?

[@truonghaininh7031]

3:53 cellos rock!

[@carlistasycia]

This performance is the one in the Voyager.

[@quincannon6275]

I feel like this recording is a lot faster than it would normally be...

[@amarmarouf]

+Quincannon i know right i think the sheet music i arranged was somewher around quarter=100(bpm)

[@IsraelMedrano]

That's good

[@akbarbaby]

Richter, that's why.

[@JohnDoe-fq3ms]

The recorder is only an instrument if you can use it properly. Example: If you can only play "Hot Crossed Buns" and/or "Mary had a Little Lamb" = Not an instrument. If you can play the complete 2nd Brandenburg Concerto, = Awesome instrument. :D

[@celinetyrie8383]

Okay, hun. If you're going to criticize Bach, spell write. Can you not hear the long notes and Vibrato in this? this piece is beautiful and he never even got to hear it. please just stop.

[@truonghaininh7031]

I mean 3:55

[@scarfacejosh123]

I don't think it was a period instrument. A period instrument would be a valveless trumpet this was a piccolo and I think piccolos just sound like that. People use piccolo cause the part is hard as hell it takes a real beast to play it on a natural trumpet

[@Michael_Arnold]

It's just as tricky on the picc!

[@MusicPredominates]

A piccolo is blown from the side.

[@scarfacejosh123]

The trumpet he plays is clearly a piccolo, a natural horn would be larger.

April 1969

[@beppe80pi]

No, It's the Schleißheim palace.

[@piercoucy]

I can't believe this is Karl Richter. This video must be older than what it seems!

[@livesteam]

It definitely is conducted by the late Karl Richter ... You can see him on the Harpsichord at 2 minutes and on several other occasions ...

[@thomaslovse4329]

It’s from April 1969

[@Cloudlesssoul]

The living humans press on, now devoid of Gods and spirits, but conscious in a world where they imagine these things matter. If there ever were Gods, it would be these creatures walking across the stars in a few hundred millenia. These Gods are too afraid to die, and thus they forever walk and try to entertain themselves.

[@Rhapsodyas]

the trumpeter is becaming purple in face

[@DisRes]

Why is the harpsichord player directing the whole thing?

[@jamessierpinski3617]

There is a second harpsichord player, though. xD

[@IsraelMedrano]

Because he is also the conductor

[@mmo2112]

I love Christopher Hogwood & Academy Of Ancient Music more... :-)

[@johnsmith21197]

In a sense Hitler ironically killed Germany. Think of all the great musicians that were called off due to the war. Karl Richter luckily was just a choir boy at the time.

[@kalayaskitchen]

I'm calling the Musicians' Union as the harpsichord player is doubling up as the conductor that ain't fair he'll get paid more than us humble flautists!!

[@kade4503]

No, he IS the conductor. It's the conductor doubling up as the harpsichord player.

[@goscott444]

@handellgr Alto

[@isaiasmedeiros3336]

[@medemajor4049]

Alto in f.

[@Cloudlesssoul]

They are not Gods, these human beings. They have supreme abilities to manipulate the world around them, but they are not able to perceive the consequences of their actions on a long-term scale. They are still animals in that respect, and yet they dream of someday coming across equals. In vain they send out their voices and music into the cold of space. Man - he has isolated himself from other animals, but he thus rendered himself alone.

[@jantimps]

@Celine: I'm not criticize Bach, I'm criticizing this way of playing. Of course I hear the long notes with vibrato: read back: Quote: "No frases, long notes..." I never said, no long notes. Never mind. No discussions about taste. I play historical instruments since 1985. As a pro.

[@suncoastsolarpunk3222]

I'm not sure if it was the instrument. I just didn't like the playing style, I guess, too abbreviated, and I didn't like the trills. It was like the air wasn't getting all the way through the instrument, I don't know, it was weird.

[@ILOVETHE1700s]

And how do they presume that aliens would be able to interpret music?

[@robertgift]

Of what is Hans Linde's white recorder made? Looks plastic! Plastic could be an excellent, stable material, yes?

[@ribeca100]

There are recorders of decent quality plastic, but as played by Hans Matrin Linde in this recording, I think it's Ivory.

[@johnsmith21197]

Hah! Karajan &Berlin Philharmonic Vs. Baby&Drum Answer? Karajan can't conduct for shit! Conversely Karl Richter is the greatest (if it be only for his mastery of the greatest music) conductor of the twentieth century.

[@TimPayne93]

@9182metalhead2 Only first and second. THird movement is like a fugue

@abrahamcat They ain't commin here to hear any musizak......hehehehehe
