Nobody ever records the final page!!! Thank you for doing this, it's fantastic to hear it as it should be!
Unos pocos lo han hecho, al decir "nadie" ya suena exagerado jaja pero te entiendo 😎👍
Imagine an entire bass section playing this as beautiful as Mark Morton!
What a great sounding bass. The instrument sounds huge and Mark Morton's playing is impeccable.
So cool! This is exactly what I was looking to hear. Just heard Leonard Bernstein conduct after the fall of the Berlin wall and wanted to hear the double bass part alone. What a joy!
I am very believer that we need more videos like this in youtube Orchestral's excerpts
i just love to hear another instrumentals excerpts of this piece
Wonderful! I love the double bass. Some of that you share with the contrabassoon, your fratello in bass-ness 👍🏼
I remember being astounded at your playin (Pied Piper Suite?) at Richard Davis’ bass convention when I was a new player in 94. Nothing has changed. Why aren’t you principal at LA, London or NY?

2:35 is the excerpt I need to practice for and this is really helpful! Thanks!
Dr Morton. Your fingerings of the last part is amazing!
Just stunning! Please don't delete this Video. I want to practice to this.
Thank you! I have no plans to take it down anytime soon!
Nunca había escuchado a alguien tocar tan limpio
beautiful sound, very very good
Amazing. The level of abstraction in a single instrument is mesmerizing without context. Of course, I mentally add in the rest of the orchestra. It's like looking at some event through a knothole.
This is excellent. I remember learning parts of this piece on the piano when I was very young. Dr. Morton, thank you for posting this. You play with professionalism, extremely well!
Amazing playing, by the way!
Uffffff....en verdad quedé con la boca abierta. It's a fantastic interpretation. I was watching this video with total attention on his left hand movements....wowwwww. it's awesome, just a true Master 🙇
Ive already commented two months ago of how awesome this was, but tonight I listened to it again through a super high quality vacuum tube receiver blasting through my P.A. (my poor neighbors) and it sounds incredible. You can hear every string slide with deep punchy notes. Your vibrato and intonation is perfect even though it's a non fretted instrument. Outstanding
Wow! Awesome comment! Thank you!
I'm glad someone hits all the notes. I'm impressed. But after watching many videos I'm upset and ask youtubers to find other excerpts. I'll be hated for this.
4:10 god damn
Nice work my friend. The Rich Woody tone out of your bass is phenomenal. This quality is almost always lost due to the rest of the orchestra playing. I guess it would be unfair to make them all stop playing ( just kidding) seriously though, this is very educational and important for everyone to listen to. It's fun and interesting as well. I really appreciate you taking the time to record this with such high quality to get that rich tone
Thank you!
Now I know that I've heard it, I am convinced it's not my fault that the fugue comes out like a jumble of sound...
It's just physics. Though to be fair, Beethoven probably imagined it differently than it actually sounded.
ME ENCANTA COMO SOLISTA EL DOUBLE BASS.
4:46
wonderful. I hope viewers understand how incredibly difficult those exherpts are. Too bad the right hand is hidden by the music stand
wow wow wow 😃😍
いい音！
コントラバスパートだけでベートーベンの交響曲全部聴きたい
Don't try this at home hahahaha, just kidding. Amazing!

Where can I find the music sheets

It's possible!
2:36
Fingerings?
4:07
Why do you shift your hand up for the open D during the second excerpt?
Good question! It is to vibrate on the open D.
As a complete neophyte, I'd be interested to know what happened at about 4:51. Was that a bow strike, or something off camera?
Tubluer there’s sforzandos in the music. You have to really bring those out.
That was his pointer finger going down over the string when he played the bottom note of the octave jump
cool, what resin do you use?
Nyman's rosin, preceded by a layer of Kolstien cello rosin.
which double bass, strings, and bow are you using?
This bass is a copy of my Guadagnini made by Paul Hart in 2013. This model is available at Robertson's & Sons in Albuquerque, NM. The strings are D'Addario Kaplan. The bow is a Zimmerman model by Samuel Kolstien.
@@DrMarkMorton are these the heavy tension kaplans?
@@alfieharries Medium tension Kaplans
This is for myself but 5:30 is letter M
is a 3/4 or a 4/4 double bass?
The body most closely resembles a 3/4 bass, but the string length is 42.5"
Schade! daß Prof. kein pp hat🎵🎶🎵🙈
Grande Katastrophe, sorry.Your Technik is OK, but that's nothing to do with Beethoven. Listen to the German Bassplayers,they can tell you to do it in the right way.
Sehr langweilig.Wie ein kind.
Danke.....
I don’t think it’s boring at all. It’s fascinating to hear the bass part.
yeah hearing isolated parts is very cool and often helpful for playing and composition. Mark Morton has been especially helpful for me in learning how the bass functions soloistically and orchestrally.
Lol what kids do you know that can play like this?
