Friedrich Gulda - Concerto for Cello and Wind Orchestra (1988)

[@TheOpencello]

It is composed for Heinrich and absolutely it belongs to him forever ! RIP my friend.

[@plumb.474]

TheOpencello he's amazing...also check out Edgar Moreau w/jongNBE at Cello Biennale/Amsterdam :)

[@fedefournier]

Ja, der Geist spricht, dass sie ruhen von ihrer Arbeit, denn ihre Werke folgen Ihnen nach. Maybe Friedrich und Heinrich are still playing this concerto together somewehere...

[@yangmingwang5768]

@@plumb.474 Oh my gosh - you are listening and watching to the greatest performance of that concerto ever, and try to promote the soulless one of someone who seems to just play the notes, not the character of the piece at all. How much does Moreau pay you for your two postings of promotion?

[@prokastinatore]

Gulda was a pure musician and that indicates any kind of music. And it indicates also the ability to compose works like he did. And Schif played Maestro Guldas music awesome! A masterpiece!

[@pollinseclectic8254]

Only a great talent who comes from both the Jszz world and the Classical world could write this. Ear openning.

Some kid pretended to play the finale in a KZbin video back in the old days of KZbin. Had it not been for that I never would have known about this. That kid is a hero.

holy cow i remember this. does anyone have the link?

[@ambonjawa2048]

Gulda is a unique genius he breaks the rule of unforbiden music and combined pure Classical music and Jazz tunes, beste 👍

[@neuzeehland]

Wie wundwerbar. Die komplette Aufnahme in einem Stück ist zurück! Und wie schön und beeindruckend ist die Kadenz.

[@naiadeforta]

This is so strange, and stunningly beautiful! THIS is pure joy....

[@volkermuller-mattheis7228]

Von einem genialen Compositeur ein grandioses Stück Musik für einen genialen Cellisten; tolles Begleitorchester. Einmalige Aufführung.

gulda was a crazy genius.

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

That minuet is simply sublime. And that entire work is SOO much fun.

[@95oj]

The best concert in history. Perhaps simply because you can't compare it to anything else! Thanks so much for the upload.

[@JamieSmith-fz2mz]

I JUST discovered Gulda's music thanks to a clip of this concerto showing up in my Instagram feed. So the last few days have been a musical rabbit hole. This makes three composers that I was late to the party in discovering: Gulda, Finzi, and Gorecki

[@soojong2194]

Heard this piece for the first time last night performed by the Grant Park Symphony and Edgar Moreau as the soloist. Beautiful and fun!! Gulda seems like he was quite a character.

[@brjssss]

Good days where the orchestra didn't play perfect together but in the highest level of music. Love Gulda

[@mariolongo7369]

Senza parole...Gulda è un Genio, lo amo!

[@karlkuehberger4619]

So was Schönes habe ich noch nie gehört!!!🤗

[@rickie500]

Marvellous! Virtuosic and great fun at the same time. I love the way the composer completely lets himself go in the last 3 minutes. :-)

[@mikeldaleetxebarria2412]

That first movement would work so well in a Quentin Tarantino film

[@user-gl7qx1ww6r]

I CAN SEE IT OMG

[@askaryambus]

Damn........ I'm speechless.

[@ritabal1159]

Onbeschrijfelijk mooi. Op vr.28 dec 2018 heeft de Koninklijke Harmonie St.Cecilia van Schelle (bij Antwerpen) onder leiding van Dirk De Caluwe dit werk gespeeld tijdens hun jaarlijks Klank Kleur Concert. Justus Grimm was de cello solist. Het was een fantastisch concert, een meesterlijke uitvoering, om nooit te vergeten.

[@ardarico]

[@berndbodenstein2258]

Eine Bereicherung für das Blasorchester!

[@janisziverts5754]

Dievīgs, burvīgs koncerts ,un izpildījums.BRAVO! Super!:)

[@prokastinatore]

Genie ( Bach-/Mozart-/Beethoven-/Chopin-Spieler und Jazzmusiker) Gulda sagte im Interview: "I mach' koa' Spassettl! I hab Humor und der Herr Haydn hatte a Humor!" - Schiff war ebenso ein kongenialer Cellist, Musiker und Künstler. Tolles Konzert. Gulda mochte ebenso die Blaskapellen-Musik am Attersee, wo Er irgendwann wohnte. Das die dann nicht gar so oft ein "Menuett" spielen, ist klar. Das Werk insgesamt ist absolut durchdacht, seriös und ernstzunehemen. Tolle Komposition. Phantastisches Konzert. Schade, dass Gulda und Schiff sich in die Haare bekamen nach diesem Riesen Erfolg. R.I.P. Gulda & Schiff. Und falls es einen Himmel gibt, hoffe ich, daß Ihr beiden Genies und Haudegen gemeinsam Musik spielt.

[@ethanjones5489]

Gee, I'm gonna miss Mr. Schiff. His was the only greatest schizophrenic rendition of Schumann's Cello Concerto that played with such soulful turmoil. And, this piece: touche!

[@tagstefmusic]

Grande libero musicista Gulda! Thanks Maestro!

Orchestras, the only place you will see a drummer wearing a suit. LOL

[@moritz_cello]

You need watch jazz combos more ; - )

[@johnbishop5316]

It's to cover up the tattoos. It isn't formal suit like the rest of the orchestra. The guitarist is scruffy by comparison.

[@bortkievitch]

Genial

[@michaweinst3774]

I know it never happened, but I simply imagine a performance of this with Rostropovich, Bernstein and the Vienna Phil.

So cool! They should have put an amp on the cello though, so hard to hear him with a WIND ORCHESTRA in the back! Still a very interesting idea, pretty well executed. :)

Der Herr Schiff war schon eine Klasse für sich, schade dass sein letzter Abtritt von der Bühne schon erfolgt ist. Gulda, so beeindruckend er am Klavier war, tapst hier etwas linkisch herum. Eines der guten Konzerte des ausgehenden 20. Jahrhunderts, so skurril es auch sein mag!

[@dianafakour3398]

Wajoo

[@egon4593]

Gulda selected very nice music for his concert. 😊 To be serious: I think, Gulda was a great pianist and sometimes a great composer, but this concert has become popular just because it's crazy, and it's crazy because of the first theme of the first movement (the second theme could have been composed by Dvorak) and because of the last movement. The other parts are, as I said, "selected well". By the way: I HATE long solo cadenzas!!!

[@geuros]

the second theme is more of Austrian folk horn playing rather than some genius Dvořák melodies, but yeah.

[@egon4593]

@@geuros Maybe Dvorak sometimes wrote in the style of Austrian Folk music. Or maybe Austrian and Bohemian Folk Music are- or were- quite similar in certain points. When Dvorak was alive, this was one country. When I visited Czechoslovakia in the late Eighties, I thought to feel that Austria was not far away.

[@geuros]

@@egon4593 I'm Czech, and yes the folk is sometimes similar, especially the wind bands. I just personally find the 1st movement folk more Alpine like, and the 5th movement is kinda common. Although even that is more Austrian I'd say, as it's more march like, while Czech would be more polka-like. But your observations are still correct :-)

[@geuros]

Basically I just wanted to point out that a lot of Dvořák's best melodies are artificial and are not directly influenced by folk tunes - which you did not directly say but I got the feeling haha, my fault.

[@egon4593]

@@geuros Ah, I see, I have to be careful what to write. 🙂 Yes of course, the last movement is Austrian or Bavarian "Hum- pa, hum- pa, hum- pa..." The first movement... well, for me it's unable to decide if Bohemian or Austrian. But it's as folcloristic as it could be, and so I simply had to think of Dvorak (which I like very much).
