Eötvös: Speaking Drums ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Martin Grubinger ∙ Vasily Petrenko

[@johnnyspinning]

Amazing, this is truly a workout for the percussionists, it has a very complex structure, I wonder how Grubinger gets everything done without reading a score. Simply great.

[@semhak]

Honestly, the only way to perform this is without a score. There's so many instrument changes all the that reading a score in a central place really isn't an option.

[@gargamosch]

He Said in an Interview, he does not memorize Notes or a Score, he memorizes every hit as a picture in his head and combines it to a Videofilm that tells him what to hit next.

[@THSIM]

The rhythm inside this little man... I am speechless! If only I could play just one of those instruments as well as him, I would be a very happy amateur percussionist indeed!!

[@djketler]

"Talking whilst playing the drum is not something unique. We can find it in traditional Indian percussion, and in jazz when musicians accompany their play with 'Sprechgesang'. This piece goes the opposite way: It begins with the percussionist speaking nonsensically, the emphasis on the rhythm, which he then passes on to his instrument. Like the pure, childish joy of repeating the same word in a different tune, the soloist teaches his instrument to speak until the drums start to talk themselves. Several poems form the basis; in the first two movements it are three poems by Sándor Weöres, and in the third movement it is a poem by Jayadeva. Each sentence has a more complex form than the one before. Rhythms form words, words form sentences, and sentences create a narrative." - Ann-yi Bingöl

[@marazulization]

Daniel Ketler 🙏🏽!🌺

[@TariqKhan-np2wx]

It does not go the opposite way. If you know properly you indian music before learning to play the tabla you learn how to speak the rhythm and them you learn to play it on the tabla.

[@doncometa]

The voice and the poetic phrases as a percussion instrument itself. it has a lot of complexity and genius.

[@KingstonCzajkowski]

We can also find it in pieces in this genre, like Rzewski's "To The Earth"

[@notaire2]

Allzu akrobatische Leistung aller Schlagzeugen!

[@michaelschefold3299]

Bin bei jedem weiteren Zuschauen/hören mehr begeistert! Bei allem Witz- und man darf bei zeitgenössischer Musik durchaus lachen! - versteht es Martin Grubinger gekonnt, nicht in Klamauk abzudriften. Und der Komponist kann orchestrieren!!! Wunderschöne Klangkombinationen- das ist "Moderne" auf allerhöchstem Niveau. Die "Klassik" lebt- und wie!

[@DJRevan]

This video is a random meme generator.

[@nekoish2996]

Martin is so talented.

[@mashakazantsev9196]

The conductor either looks respectably serious or so done with the drummer. I laughed so hard, but it also makes a lot sense, and the percussionist's skill is truly amazing.

[@richardspatling5923]

Look at Vasily Petrenko's face at 21.36 minutes and you will see the conductor's joy! The fact that he conducted the orchestra so professionally and at the same time so sensitively during the performance speaks exclusively for his competence! The audience showed with their continuous applause that they appreciated the composition and performance and enjoyed them!

[@StanislavGres]

The conductor is responsible for the overall outcome!

[@tarbouret1]

Excellent chef d'orchestre. Tout comme l'était Peter Eötvös. Un grand compositeur et un grand chef nous a quittés 😢. Bravo à Martin Grubinger, merveilleux musicien!

[@fiepsinator-inator]

He is one of the best conductors I've ever played with

[@michaelschefold3299]

Einfach super! Macht Spaß zuzuschauen. Und bitte Leute, die den Sacre nicht kennen und meinen, man könnte heute noch Sinfonien schreiben einfach ignorieren. Oder darüber lachen, deshalb gibt es ja solche Clowns!

[@thner773]

Warum genau soll man heute nicht mehr dazu in der Lage sein Sinfonien zu schreiben?

[@aulos52]

Sinfonien vielleicht nicht mehr ! Aber Orchestermusik sicher noch...;-)

[@bertrandrussel3680]

I'm stunned WOOOW IT'S INCREDIBLE PURE GENIUS

[@MrFezaeh]

Was für ein phänomenales Werk :O

[@steffen5121]

This is music directly from heaven, haha...

[@steffen5121]

But I think he missed the f sharp a bit at 15:05. It is also not quite my tempo. But apart form that really nice.

[@blintscav]

My favorite sound was the rocks played by one of the orchestral percussionists.

[@MichaelWald-Filterraum]

zu genial dass es jemand verstehen könnt

[@ecologicaladam7262]

Well, what can one say, but "WOW" ?!!

[@lukefoster934]

TwoSetViolin Everyone’s waiting.

[@batardnoir]

09:41 shout out to the concertmaster for his reaction 😂 We were also participants in this chiropractic session. 😂

[@sunpei-li7913]

Creative rhythm and timbre

[@rccarloverluxembourg718]

Krankes Meisterwerk, Grubi und der Dirigent und alle anderen sing erste Sahne

[@kevineigelbach99]

How did the rest of the orchestra keep a straight face?

[@Ollymin]

they might have laughed in the rehearsals tho

[@barbelscherzer2052]

ER war heute im Konzert-Haus -Berlin nur Super Stark!!!!!!!

[@jej22mjv20]

4:40 is "that minutes of news"?????

[@cloegianoli9932]

[@gabrielepetrucci1081]

[@steffen5121]

Fus do rah ?

[@dominiquelanglois5425]

ENFIN UN CHEF GUERRIER BLANC !

[@tomkat69pc]

Terence Fletcher: "not quite my tempo" .. haha .. .

[@sparklydragon4688]

Was habe ich soeben gehört? :-/

[@Mekaels_Music]

How is that notated

[@johnnyfx82]

conventional (drum) notation accompanied by LOTS of explaining remarks (i.e. whole sentences, text passages and stuff).

[@diegoulloa3882]

Poor timpani

Well this brought a smile to my quarantined day

[@corneliatopala896]

Și eu m-am trezit zâmbind... O sărbătoare a instrumentelor de percuție... O frumusețe... Vasily Petrenko este un om de muzică excepțional... Am fost la ambele lui concerte din ultimul festival Enescu... Minunat ce iese din mâinile lui. Îl urmăresc de mult timp... Are un soi de grație magică în tot ce face... Un fel de Ariel al muzicii... Sper să vadă mult mai multă lume ce spun eu pe aici... Și solistul interpret este pur și simplu grozav... Mulțumesc că mi-ați dat ocazia să fac acest comentariu!

[@semhak]

This piece basically is one big caricature of every orchestral percussion player ever.

[@Jasondburnham]

Percussionists... am I right?

[@thenihil4549]

you are god damn right ;D

[@markchentx]

Vocalizing percussionist, to be exact.

[@steffen5121]

Mark Chen Yeah. But I think he missed the f sharp a bit at 15:05

[@samthecomposer2959]

07:28 percussionist is all like, “what am I doing with my life” 😂

[@zoundsful]

hahahahahaha

[@DrummahMike]

Actual rock music.

[@brianrichardcohn2159]

:)

[@강상언]

17:22 highlight

[@paulwoodrup93]

Wenn man ein Instrument nicht mehr bespielt, sondern mit ihm zusammen spielt wird es grossartig. Ich habe Angst das ich vom Punk Metal- zum Klassikfan mutiere. Wobei es eigentlich am schönsten ist das gesamte Spektrum zu erkunden. Am Ende ist alles die gleiche Sprache mit verschiedenen Dialekten. Danke für diese Bereicherung. Meinen Kopf und mein Herz hat es wieder ein Stück wachsen lassen.

[@christianlinke3008]

Hut ab! Ich hätte mich nicht getraut vor Publikum sowas als Solist aufzuführen.

[@martin1024]

Warum eigentlich nicht?

[@bowerdw]

On a return visit, this awkward mere mortal doesn't mind being overwhelmed by what some incredibly hard working individuals can do, especially with music. I just fixed up a citation for a book I just finished engaging regarding Williams Shakespeare and had to keep checking basic info. My puny citation project didn't even pale in comparison to the complexity presented here. Wow!

[@pianopeth]

[@adam29481]

RESPEKT....

[@paolofurlani]

Extraordinary! Both the idea, the performer, the score!

[@barbelscherzer2052]

Der junge Mann ist nur COOL müßt Ihr Euch Anschauen!!!!!!

[@joycedelrosario2218]

The piece is so creative. What language is Mr. Grubinger shouting/singing of? Sorry I am not familiar with the piece.

[@johnnyfx82]

The Poems of a certain Sandor Weöres (first 3 movements) contain gibberish. The 4th movement, as far as I understand, is a more serious poem written by Jayadeva.

[@laurajhball]

Anger management.

[@josjanssen6733]

Sensational

[@왕빵-o1d]

21:00 goodddd

[@julienbrugger7327]

ich weiss nicht was ich davon halten soll...

[@bowerdw]

Dazzling!

[@mmarci23]

Its funny when drum player chanting 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@김종훈-i8t]

Audiences preoccupied to the talented performance also makes it perfect!

[@karlbauer9734]

Sehr speziell. Oder: Klappern gehört zum Handwerk. Dazu noch „Hurtz“ und „Grunz“ und „Huaa!“ gemixt. „Nonsense“ eben.

[@ЕвгенийОбухов-к9ь]

Чьё больное воображение сочинило это?

[@maximiliangeier9637]

Sehr bemerkenswert, sehr interessantes Werk! Grubinger ist ein unglaublicher Musiker!

[@pilu1100]

Húzóra! :D

[@newhorizon131]

这玩意怎么那么像中国的编钟

[@wavechamber]

Fantastic Martin!!!

[@fatcat1325]

I'm just amazed how the percussionist remembered where everything was 😂😂😂

[@annamariaadam3713]

Szenzációs!

[@richardspatling5923]

Große Begeisterung !!! Es ist eine hoch kreative und fantastische Komposition von Peter Eötvös , die eine einzigartige Herausforderung für den Schlagzeuger ist, der seinerseits zusätzlich die Stimme einsetzt! Wir sind noch nicht an diese Qualität von Komposition gewöhnt, sie ist meines Erachtens in jeder Hinsicht ein Meisterwerk: absolut großartige Klassik ! hervorragend dirigiert von Vasily Petrenko ! einzigartig aufgeführt vom Solisten Martin Grubinger und dem hr-Sinfonieorchester, deren Mitglieder ebenfalls stimmlichen Einsatz zeigten ! Ich bin glücklich und dankbar, dass ich diese Aufführung hier entdecken durfte!!!

[@ollli7491]

Was für ein Talent!!!!

[@sivadepilif]

21:13 Best part!

[@enelabe]

hahahahhahaha cause it ends hahahahahahahhaha you're so funny hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahah
