Sensationell - aber das ist ja Jedem inzwischen klar - immer ein besonderes Ereignis Nicolas zu sehen und zu hören - er ist "Klarinette", Künstler, Genie - übermenschlich!!!
This supreme artist, Baldeyrou, achieves as much artistic and articulation results as possible, phrasing, without any neurological or technical stress. I hear and feel that the clarinet seems to be "the easiest instrument in the world". It obviously isn't. Genius, artist, thank you very much!
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 Yes, my dear friend, I know. I think it was Mozart who said: "I work hard to make the result look very spontaneous". I thank you for demonstrating this to the world, Nicolas, in your art. I don't play the clarinet, I play the violin. But it means a lot to me. Thank you!
When I was a clarinet student about 35 years ago, I certainly knew of Francaix (mostly for his wind chamber music) but only knew of the clarinet concerto by reputation - nobody seemed to play it, couldn't find a recording, and no UA-cam, of course. I assumed it was good because I liked everything I ever heard by Francaix. Now, we're fortunate to have lots of recordings of it available on UA-cam (and a few commercial recordings). To me it ranks in the top tier of clarinet concertos, along with Mozart, Nielsen, Copland, and Corigliano, yet I've never even heard about a live performance, much less seen one. All that as a prelude to saying that I love this video. You make a really hard piece sound, if not easy, then at least charming, as Francaix must sound. The arrangement for clarinet octet is great, and the video is delightful. It may be selfish to not be content with this first movement, but are you planning to arrange (and film) the other movements? And are you going to publish the arrangement? I could see it becoming popular in clarinet studios in conservatories around the world.
This is my favorite 'performance' of this movement, if you can call it that. It's so light and playful. It's so French in all the right ways, just as one would hope for with this piece. Anyone else notice The Bread Man walking past at 0:59 to prepare for conducting duties later on? Other little touches like having the backing parts on a different clarinet so that you always know 'who is who,' I love it. And look how only the soloist has a proper jacket on and how for the recap, we get the same 'funny' bass clarinet faces from the same Nicolas wearing the blue denim jacket... Just found your channel now, wish I had many months sooner!
Amazing! I don't know what I admire the most... Is it the skills for editing the video? Could it be the well recorded and mixed audio? The fine work of creating such a beautiful arrangement? Or maybe is your amazing performance in every part (not just the soloist, which is by itself excellent)! Thank you very much for sharing your work with all of us through the internet. (I came from Instagram and I also want to share my words in this platform) :D
Bassoon player here. Francaix clarinet concerto has been one of my *all time* favorites. First time I played it in the orchestra I knew it by heart. I LOVE IT! It's the epitome of lovely. As much as this is lovely, I'll stick with the orchestra version lol ;D
This is a priceless experience that we are getting for free. Thank you! This changes our feelings when we watch and listen! And about the playing: only those who have tried to learn this concerto understand how difficult it is. And you make it sound so easy. So well played! Thank you again for the inspiration you give us!
So beautiful, Love this concert, it is very French. So many ideas about the seasons that change with the music, a great idea. For some reason this theme reminds me of the French anthem. The arrangement for the clarinet ensemble is fantastic and many thanks!Bravo Maestro!
This is amazing!!!!! I miss Paris and this gave me very nostalgic lol. Loved this arrangement and everything about this performance, great job! très bon!! 😊🙌🏼
Fantabulous playing and loltastic acting! Thank you for all your videos! And a very special thank you for choosing my A clarinet for me at B.C. last April. I love it. And now I need to go practise, I haven't quite reached the required 40 hours today!
You playing solo with Buffet Crampon ”Légende” clarinet and another orchestral parts with Buffet ”Prestige”. I noticed that! :D I found my first musical channel with quality music and interesting video editing! I was very pleasantly surprised and I am glad that there are such people as You with such ideas! Congratulations and Good Luck !!
Magnifique concerto, et cet arrangement est tout simplement génial. Bravo Nicolas. Par coïncidence, j’ai sous les yeux la partition de ce concerto que m’avait donnée mon regretté professeur André Pons, sur laquelle on peut lire l’annotation de la main de Jean Françaix : « Pour mon ami André Pons, avec toute ma reconnaissance pour le sauvetage de la cadence de ce concerto. Jean Françaix. 20 Juin 1969 ». Je suis sûr que tous les deux seraient enchantés d’entendre cette magnifique interprétation. Amitiés, Christophe.
I needed this . I love seeing fellow clarinettist, getting the shine . It’s well needed . I am so over other woodwinds being praised .... we put in real work . I loved this , honestly was so playful with the backgrounds .
Bravo, Bravo Bravísimo. Ese concierto estuvo genial, gracias por el detalle de grabarlo. Me encantó. Lo más divertido fue verte caminar con un pan en el brazo.
This is absolutely amazing! 🤩 Not only you played that first movement of the concerto as it is the easiest thing in the world (though every clarinet player knows it’s exactly opposite), you also did an extraordinary transcription for clarinet octet! Congrats for that funny and awesome work! 👏🏻👏🏻
Waaaaooooouuuuuuuuuhhhhhh ! Perfection dans la Kitschitude, j'aaadoooore ! Du coup je me l'écoute une 2e fois en fermant les yeux pour apprécier le talent principal ! merci, et encore !
Absolument Fabuleux Cher Nicolas....Bravissimo...Mes Félicitations plus sincères...un travail immense....Beautiful...you are thé best! Bises et Amitié 👏💪🏆
Amazing! I feel like I’m watching a musical show. I would like to tell this amazing channel to Jacob Collier. He must love it. Hey, Jacob!! Don’t miss it!
Cher Monsieur Baldeyrou, je découvre par l’intermédiaire d’un ami vos vidéos. Quelle magnifique leçon vous nous donnez ! En plus d’une virtuosité et d’une maîtrise de votre instrument (incompréhensible pour le modeste clarinettiste amateur que je suis...) votre musicalité et votre sens de l’humour sont sans égal. Bravo bravo ! Je me réjouis déjà de découvrir d’autres vidéos. Cordialement. Éric L (Suisse)
Congratulations for your fantastic version of that gorgious concerto. Beyond the music itself, your inetrpretation is about fluidity, originality and virtuosity. Kudo to you! From a meloman who used to spend his life in concert halls before the sanitary crisis...
Not sure why I’m just now seeing this but WOW! Magnificently played, beautiful scenery, and loved the baguette 🥖 and snowman! Always a pleasure Nicholas!!!
I started studying the clarinet and music at the age of 67. Music is easy to learn quickly, but not playing, not at all. After a year of studying one thing I know for sure, I have to start over as a child and learn a lot and do it when my hands and brain are closer together. For now that I still live this life and I know I do not have the time to study as much as I would like and that I have a few hours of flight under my belt I can only enjoy listening to you play and see you interpret a complete octet and a song that, yes, remember just the acrobatic flight but not of airplanes, but a little the flight of that famous insect .... wait, yes, yes, the Flight of the Bumblebee.
Thank you so much, I think my wee one is finally inspired, well not so wee starting university next year math and music. At least he perks up when I tell him you have a new video! Actually practicing twice a day wow weeeeeee! Once again tytyty
This is just fantastic! You make it look so easy, but clarinetists know it is not!! 8 Nicolas is better than 1! Nice baguette 🥖!!! You’re amazing!! 👏🎼🎶🎵💕. I’ll give u 5 baguettes on this 😂😂 🥖🥖🥖🥖🥖
What to say about this... Already by itself the clarinet part is very difficult to play and you do it so well and so easily. Moreover you play perfectly also the orchestral parts...you are an alien! Amazing video 👏👏👏
we heard this concerto once in the late 90's (if I remember right) played by virtuoso Reino Simola. Your clarinet arrangement works brilliantly! Congrats! (What about the rest of the concerto?) Only thing I kind of was missing was the contra bass clarinet.
The person who disliked it is either deaf, jealous, or frustrated because he plays the flute and he realised the clarinet sounds better. 👌
Chloé Dilé There always has to be one crazy
You can’t please everyone 😁 but thank you Chloé !
@@cathy_clarinet hello, i am clarinetistsewonkim from the instagram comment section :)
Light 👋🏻😊
Right on
One of the hardest pieces in the clarinet repertoire played like a walk in the park.
I think Nicolas won the decade of 2019-2029. The Bob Ross of clarinet we've needed for so long.
Hahaha thank you Tony :-))
This is the most terrific.... now i should go to practice
Thank you Fabrizio ! Practice never ends... 😁
Thank you Fabrizio ! Practice never ends 😁

Mille mercis, tout le plaisir est pour moi !
The outfits are my favorite things ever. talent and a sense of humor. this is what 2020 needs.
