Haydn: 1. Cellokonzert C-Dur ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Steven Isserlis ∙ Richard Egarr

[@jonathanward6208]

I love that he plays the opening cello part, versus be serenaded and invited to play along.

[@guileshill]

I guess his line might be something like, "It's called a Tutti, that means everyone, that means I can join in... so there!"

[@rivermaxfield574]

@@guileshillInterestingly, the manuscript score only has one cello line with tutti and solo markings, rather than a cello section line and solo cello line. In fact, the tutti sections are included in most editions because of that - and many musicologists believe Joseph Weigl, to whom this concerto was dedicated, was the only cellist in the Esterhazy orchestra at the time, and would have played the tutti AND solo sections by himself!

[@elaineblackhurst1509]

@@rivermaxfield574 You cannot play this concerto with only one cello - the soloist.

[@Neb2117]

Had me thinking…How fortunate we are to live in a world where such creativity exists. Then to have these precious few, with the intellect, talent, and willingness to commit their lives to creating music at this level for the rest of us to enjoy. Thank you and bless you all from the bottom of my heart.

[@matthewgroters6270]

I think this is probably the most relaxed looking performance of this I’ve seen.

[@drorlevy3013]

Found about this concerto by attending a real concert of Isserlis. Was so great to hear him play this piece.

[@c08lam]

I love the way how he used his bow, it is a wonderful interpretation of the piece.

[@janfogt]

This is absolutely amazing - and I have not experienced anything like Steven Isserlis ... playing with an ease as if he doesn't even play, but rather listens - with every sign of pleasure - to a concert with a cello player called Steven Isserlis telling all kinds of magic tales with his instrument. Thank you so much for this performance ...!!!!

[@qingguo5409]

Absolutely the best cellist our time!

[@ipacyz8369]

The best cellist of all times!

[@Adlerjunges83]

Isserlis pure Spielfreude überträgt sich auf Publikum, die anderen Mitwirkenden und uns als Zuhörerschaft von KZbin. Herrlich.

[@katyajouk5447]

Einfach unglaublich!!!! So frisch, so anders, so glänzend und freudig - wie der Haydn selber! Bin sehr überrascht - wow!!! Absolut grandios!!!❤

[@notaire2]

Wunderschöne und lebhafte Aufführung dieses perfekt komponierten Konzerts mit mildem doch gut phrasiertem Ton des genialen Solocellos sowie gut harmoniserten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instrumente. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und echt elegant. Der intelligente und ebenso geniale Cembalist/Dirigent leitet das kompakte und ausgezeichnete Orchester im angemessenen Tempo und mit angenehmer Dynamik. Einfach wundervoll!

[@travisbeltrametti4357]

I love his reaction to that disturbing noise in 23:47 and how he joyfully integrates it as a stepping stone to lift the music to another level. This music is about joy. Also technique, but mostly joy.

[@laurantrouwborst9453]

Amazing indeed, great to point that out!

[@foxify7578]

Haha I didn't even realize! I thought it was part of the movement XD

[@ronm3245]

I thought it was some kind of weird bow scrape. It worked, though!

[@tylerchen618]

An old soul with so much youthful energy, personality, and playfulness! And a beautiful, fine cello to top it off. Just discovered my new favorite cellist :)

[@valeriechapman1612]

Haydn: 1 Cello Konzert C-Dur . hr - Sinfonieorchester. Steven Isserlis . Richard Egarr I enjoyed cello concert 2. I actually am enjoying this much better. Steven certainly is the King 🤴 of the Cello and its a delight to listen to this piece. What a talented Cellist and the orchestra too is so complimenting him with their accompaniment. Anyone can see he lives to bring great music to his audiences. Enjoyably so, too. Thank You for giving me the opportunity of listening to this wonderful music. The experience was delightfully received. Perfection …. In my opinion.

[@martagill4205]

Oh to be caressed as is Steven's cello ; the touch, the quiver ............ !

[@nicholasfaht]

The two Haydn cello concerts posted in less than 24 hours, it's like an anticipated Christmas

[@MrAlemariani]

One Word: the MUSIC!!!!!

[@paulmauffray]

Nice to see that Egarr has included the harpsichord in the basso continuo of this concerto, however, they should have also included at least one bassoon to add a woodwind-bass color to the other winds. Josef Haydn is on record in 1768 as having advocated for the tradition of including the bassoon in the basso continuo having said this: "The bassoon can be omitted if absolutely necessary, but I would rather have it, especially since the bass is obbligato throughout. And I prefer a band with three bass instruments - cello, bassoon and double bass - to one with six double basses and three cellos, because [in the latter scoring] certain passages cannot be heard clearly.“ Basically, if the orchestra includes wind instruments and basso continuo, one should include bassoon too. That was common practice, and the sound of oboes and horns without a wood-wind bass instrument is just odd and uncharacteristic of that period. (This is particularly odd since the same conductor and orchestra include the bassoon in their next video with the 2nd Haydn concerto, but have omitted it here.)

[@brendabixter3055]

What an absolute joy this is, both to hear and to see [apart from the masks]. Wonderful music performed with brilliance, sensitivity and exuberance. My favourite recording of Haydn's Cello Concerto in C by far.

[@denise2169]

Great performance! Isserlis is so much fun to watch - he plays with such joy which I see spread to the orchestra, too! Wish I could have been there!

[@HahaHa-nf7iz]

He’s crazy I love him

[@WelshIron]

Bravo! Wonderful performance. Steven is my hero and inspiration on the cello, the orchestra are on top form too, in all a wonderful performance.

[@lucosi98]

This is incredibly amazing! If the bassoon were present, it would be perfect. Isserlis plays like a wizard producing beautiful magic.

[@kayregarcia7526]

Music is so natural for him, it's amazing to experience. Excellent orchestra too

[@ariankonci5727]

Steven, esto es muy..muy..muy talentoso por el character del concierto, великолепное исполнение, пожалуй это наилучшая интерпретация этого произведения. Но к сожалению много киксов(шлака) в звуке.

Does anyone know which cello he is playing in the performance?

[@CelloHub]

Stradivarius ( Marquis de Corberon ) with gut strings on it.

[@翁慈玲]

0:00 to 1:20 is a round😊

[@elishnaps5670]

Great playing by all as always! Does anyone know why the soloist is playing cello tutti at the beginning of this performance? In most performances, the soloist only comes in when the solo begins. Any ideas?

[@elishnaps5670]

In fact, I noticed this now not only in the introduction, he often joins in during the tutti sections whenever he can.

[@guileshill]

I guess his line might be something like, "It's called a Tutti, that means everyone, that means I can join in... so there!"

[@senfglas5707]

It's in the original score by Haydn.

[@MrFpam]

This is a carry -over from the baroque tradition and was common at the time. It also allows the soloist to warm up.

[@rivermaxfield574]

Actually, a bit unusually, there’s only one cello line in the score, marked tutti and solo in different places, rather than a cello section line and a solo cello line. The tutti part is included in most editions now, and many musicologists believe Joseph Weigl, to whom this was dedicated, was the only cellist in the Esterhazy orchestra at the time, and thus would’ve played the tutti AND solo sections by himself
