Giovanni Punto (Jan Václav Stich) Horn Concerto No.5 in F major, Radek Baborak

Giovanni Punto (Jan Václav Stich) Horn Concerto No.5 in F major
1. Allegro moderato
2. Adagio
3. Rondeau en chasse
Radek Baborák Horn
Prague Chamber Orchestra
Giovanni Punto born Jan Václav Stich (September 28, 1746 in Žehušice, Bohemia - February 16, 1803 in Prague, Bohemia) was a Czech horn player (more correctly, he played the cor basse) and a pioneer of the hand-stopping technique which allows natural horns to play a greater number of notes.
He was an international celebrity in the 18th and early 19th centuries, known in London, Paris, and throughout Germany.

No video, but still wonderful to listen to. He certainly gets around the horn effortlessly. As a horn player, I’d LOVED to see as well as hear this performance. Bravo!

[@NikolayLukovkin]

Радек лучший валторнист в мире! Прекрасное исполнение, браво!!!

[@malcolmabram2957]

Never heard of Punto, have now, and will definite listen again.

[@vik9762]

Чудесное исполнение,прекрасный звук!Лучший валторнист мира!!!

[@rendale1333]

Этот концерт пожалуй лучше не съиграть. Очень много мелкого непривычного материала, музыканту удалось собрать из великолепных фрагментов одну прекрасную картину. Его можно слушать бесконечно.

Thanks a lot for this brilliant music, mrs Ria Brezova! Giovanni Punto born Jan Václav Stich - such a mighty talent! Sorrow for I didn't knew this name earlier. Pure highest music. Mysterious horn. Excellent performance as well.

[@riabrezova8682]

Thank you very much for warm comment, Wolodymyr! I am very happy you like music by Jan Vaclav Stich-Punto. Best wishes Ria

+A Hornilov (Schatz81) Radek Baborák !!!! :-)

[@KevinGenus]

I remember seeing Tuckwell and Baumann live. Never thought someone like Baborak would show up. Nothing but smiles over here. Thank you God for good mics, hi-fidelity recordings, and the internet.

[@albertsteinhauser4728]

Ein sehr musikantisches Stück, hervorragend gespielt!

[@harryandruschak2843]

This performance makes me hope I can soon hear the first four concertos. :)

[@anthonyernesthui7330]

For me...it's Barry Tuckwell anytime...have you heard him on those pieces...I knew him back in 1964...kept in touch up to before his death in Jan last year... ..

[@anthonyernesthui7330]

Tuckwell recorded these Concertos years ago before he passed away in January 2020....available on the EMI label... 1964 was the year I got to be acquainted with the Great Virtuoso...That said...R.I P. GOD OF HORN...YOU are always in our hearts...

[@anthonyernesthui7330]

Radek Baborak is a great horn player. Wonder if anyone of you have heard Barry Tuckwell in the same Concerto. I got to know the Great Virtuoso back in 1964who is now 85 and is living in Melbourne, Australia. Listen to Tuckwell's performance and be marvelled by his virtuosity,

[@johnlawrence2757]

Back in ´64 I believe we were all still listening to the great Dennis Brain !

[@timeasley292]

I am a horn player in Texas but I can't compete with this

[@_alicia__]

ok but that album cover is kinda iconic.

[@josefmaier1578]

Po bratrech Tylšarových, což byli excelentní hornisté České filharmonie, obzvlášť Zdeněk byl famózní, s v Radku Baborákovi zrodil další excelentní hornista světové úrovně. Už jsem viděl víc jeho koncertu viděl a slyšel více koncertu a je opravdu famózní

[@sasawhare]

I feel the magical connection of the 18th sentury great horn player composition with another great horn player 230 yars later. I thing this is the best source also for historians how the artistst rally played before the recordings...

[@stevem1389]

+Sasa Whare I too enjoyed this technically and musically superb performance, but I am sure that Punto would have played it totally different. Just think of how different the natural horn (Punto was in fact the first travelling natural horn virtuoso) is compared to our modern valve horns. The technically superior modern horn alone guarantees for an entirely different character. Especially the lower parts of the cadenza are unplayable on the natural horn.

[@sasawhare]

I think Punto played this only technically different (due to different instrument), and he did not play the same cadenca, but that is not so important. I bet, the patience, tempo and musical expression , played by Punto, were moreless the same.

[@marcosPRATA918]

Execução brilhante. Essa obra é ágil, cheia de figurações típicas da presença da Trompa (Horn) no séc.XVIII, um misto da beleza do Concerto com os ritmos das "partitas" de caça.

[@riabrezova8682]

+marcos aquino Yes I agree, Radek Baborak was the chef-hornist of Berliner Pilharmoniker.

[@klikklakbangbang4430]

есть нормальные видео а не картинки наложенные на музыку?

[@riabrezova8682]

I kogda poluchite CD, tam est video? Tam est tozhe tolko odna kartinka i muzyka. Napishite v "Ishchi" imja Radek Baborak i vy obnaruzhite normalnoe video Baboraka. Xooroshix vyxodnyx!

[@apfelsnutz]

I shall never forget playing this with the Nederlands Kamer Orkest in the Concertgebouw in the late '70s. Antonio Ros Marba conducting. Isn't life a thrill...when you Go For It..!!!

[@301Alexhorn]

Then I would be very interested who you are!!!

[@misssarahashplant31]

Much appreciated. I look forward to seeing more of your videos 😃

[@riabrezova8682]

You are always welcome!

[@misssarahashplant31]

Another great composer. Can someone tell me how to pronounce the name of his birthplace? I've never been good at pronouncing eastern european words. Gorgeous music once again!

[@riabrezova8682]

Thank you very much for kind words! Jan Václav Stich was born in Žehušice, read Zhehushitse. Warmest regards Ria

[@НуржанБимуратов]

Wonderful and magical performance. I really want to see and listen to Radek. This is my dream. Probably not come true (((

[@GRUSGOT]

Why not?

[@vladimirsvoboda2635]

Překrásné mistře. Jak pak to asi znělo Stichovi na historickém nástroji?
