Having seen this brilliance, my dream now is for this to inspire other musicians to do the same with this piece, but with their relevant instrument groups from the piece. It would interesting to highlight what the bassoonists do beyond the iconic opening solo, or highlight how similarly complexly layered the horns are to the flutes in this piece.
Wow, Stravinsky really didn't give you much time to breath in some of those long, extended passages with 16th note runs. They just go on forever without any breaks.
Would love to see this for the entire Planets suite! I’ve always wanted to hear music from the perspective of certain groups of instruments. Flutes are an especially interesting listen out of all the woodwind. Keep up the outstanding playing!
It's funny how today _Le Sacre_ and The Planets are both cherished parts of the standard repertoire, but you couldn't mention The Planets (smashing success) in the same sentence with _Le Sacre_ (scandal) in 1920.
The Rite of Spring is my favourite work and it's a joy to stumble across this amazing insight into a single section in this massive work, thank you SO much for putting this together man!
What an amazing rendition! I always thought the flutes on this piece were incredible, and hearing them isolated and clear like this is amazing. The bit from 9:22 to 10:02 with the piccolo trills are my favorite part! Cheers from Brazil!
I've been working on a Low Brass version for this type of video for almost 2 years, but I'm such a perfectionist that I keep rerecording the older takes! It'll happen, eventually.... maybe. Great Job though!
I have known and loved the “sacre” for over 40 years. And I am always awestruck and overflowing with enthusiasm when I discover new details of this masterpiece - as in this video. Hearing only the flutes in the foreground again opens up new levels. Thank you very much and hats off! Ich kenn und liebe den "sacre" seit über 40 Jahren. Und ich erstarre immer wieder vor Ehrfurcht und fließe über vor Begeisterung, wenn ich neue Details dieses Meisterwerks entdecken darf - wie in diesem Video. Mal ausschießlich die Flöten in den Vordergrund gerückt zu hören erschließt wieder neue Ebenen. Vielen Dank und Hut ab!!
As someone who plays the flute and absolute adores The Rite, you have no idea how happy I am to have stumbled across this!! Thank you so much for sharing :D
Legend has it that this piece caused such an outrage when it first premiered in 1913, that the whole theater (including the musicians) broke out into a riot.
I am LOVING this! I have studied composition and orchestration with some incredible teachers, just recently watched a deep dive into the Rite. This is an EXCELLENT idea! Thank you!!
So well done. This is a great tutorial for anyone wanting to add this piece to their repertoire. I always encourage my students to review as many of the classics/standard pieces for orchestra as a way of building skills. This is the perfect study piece. Thank you!
This is a brilliant idea, excellently produced! While obviously the balance is not what you would hear in a full live orchestral performance it gives a wonderful insight into the brilliant writing for the flutes, and would greatly enhance your listening to a full performance. It would be wonderful if other instrumentalists could make similar videos for other sections in the work.
I was thinking the exact same thing. I would love this to inspire additional vids to come along and do similar highlight jobs, like for the conical brass (horns and tubas), or for the clarinet section, among others.
I’m thinking about doing this but for clarinets. I can get both a B flat and a Bass at my school, but I just need to figure out where to get an E flat and an A.
@@mrzepherman And a D! (Though very few players have that, and play it on the E flat nowadays, though the writing for the D clarinet is very specific!)
Fabulous work. I'm hearing, and appreciating so much more of what the flutes do in this piece (esp the piccolo). And realising that the flutes are playing most of the time!
Great work, and fantastically useful as an orchestration teaching tool. It would be wonderful if similar videos could be produced for each section of the Rite's orchestra. Tough to produce! Your video is a brilliant start to that. Thanks. 🙂
Wowsers! Great stuff, especially being able to hear all those great alto flute lines. Normally the solos are easily audible but there is so much more going on! Bravo!!!
Listening again. Still wowsers! Back in the day, I was lucky enough to perform Le Sacre a dozen times or so, but I was always playing the piccolo trumpet. From back there, you don’t get to here a lot of these amazing flute, and especially alto flute lines
Double bassist with flute dreams here lol we get to carve mountains in these excerpts. Down picking metal bands, only a pale imitation of these Down Bows!
Now please do Mahlers 9, 2, 7, pictures Ravel, la mer, all of Holst the planets (including alto flute ones and 2nd piccolo ones), American in Paris, Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 2, "Little Russian, all of the firebird 1910, Shostakovich: Symphony No. 9 and 15, Respighi: "Fountains of Rome," "Pines of Rome,” Schoenberg: Violin Concerto; Beethoven: Symphony No. 7, Bartók: Piano Concerto No. 2, "The Wooden Prince." R. Strauss: "Don Juan," "Brentano" Lieder, "Also Sprach Zarathustra.", Beethoven: Symphony No. 9 and upload all of it to UA-cam. Then do some pieces SFS did for 2003-2004 like Toch: From "Bunte" Suite; Mozart: "Exsultate, jubilate"; Mahler: Symphony No. 4, Berlioz: "Romeo et Juliette, Brahms violin concerto, Smetana: "Bartered Bride" Overture; Chopin: Piano Concerto No. 1; Anders Hillborg: "Exquisite Corpse"; Scriabin: "Poem of Ecstasy, Debussy (orch. Holloway): "En blanc et noir"; John Adams: "My Father Knew Charles Ives"; Tchaikovsky: Suite No. 3, Mussorgsky: "Night on Bald Mountain"; Salonen: "Insomnia"; Prokofiev: Piano Concerto No. 1, Bartok: Suite from "The Miraculous Mandarin, Shostakovich: Symphony No. 7, "Leningrad, Ravel mother goose suite, Prokofiev: Symphony No. 6, Bach: Mass in B Minor, Debussy: "Rondes de printemps" from "Images"; Prokofiev: Sinfonia concertante; Franck: Symphony in D Minor, and Takemitsu: "From me flows what you call time"; Holst: "The Planets."
I love this. It allows everyone to see and hear the condensed part of the flute section. Very well done. Also I can't believe more composers use the alto flute, it is quite a beautiful instrument. Btw the original recording is of a Dutch orchestra, not Danish.
I thought you made an arrangement for only flutes...😅 That would have been something!!! How many flutes would that have taken (from bass-flute to piccolo)! Also love the arrangement for 4 piano's Love your video of this masterpiece.
Amazing. By the way, I'm a Rite lover, not specifically a flute lover (though of course flutes are cool, and a great part of the orchestra.) I know the editing of this probably took almost as much time as learning the music, but if you do this again, can you please put the music on-screen the whole time, not just when the flutes are playing? (Potentially with other parts showing up as cues where useful, but at least showing the millions of whole bar rests - with the time-signatures.) That way I can conduct along with the video. Pretend I'm Herbert von Karjan or something 🙂 No, strike that. My favourite version is with Claudio Abbado conducting. I'll be him 😀 Thanks for uploading. I've listened to the Rite about 10 million times, but never like this, and I think I learned a few new things from the experience! Incidentally, you look a bit like Ethan Hawke 🙂

The alto flute part in the introduction will never get enough attention. It goes SO hard
Do you mean piccolo?
2:30 think its the alto flute part with the oboe solo and the really high clarinet. I agree it sounds really wierd and uncomfortable
14:09 that part was incredible
Having seen this brilliance, my dream now is for this to inspire other musicians to do the same with this piece, but with their relevant instrument groups from the piece. It would interesting to highlight what the bassoonists do beyond the iconic opening solo, or highlight how similarly complexly layered the horns are to the flutes in this piece.
Oh I would LOVE THAT as well!!! Can you imagine how much you would learn???!!!!
please link it here if anyone find others! love to see it
Or the bass clarinet, I really like those parts too.
I might do something like this for the clarinet parts, however the clarinet parts are still pretty hard for me.
@@ouwebrood497yes, they are great!
this is iconic
I am SO jealous of any performer that gets to play this masterpiece......our little regional orchestra just isnt up to scratch Im afraid
need one of these for every instrument
INCREDIBLE video
12:01 is my favorite part for flutes :)
14:09 is my fav of all time
Eu amo o som da flauta em Sol.
Wow, Stravinsky really didn't give you much time to breath in some of those long, extended passages with 16th note runs. They just go on forever without any breaks.
THE WHOLE THING
Very nice to see only one particular part of this extraordinary ballet! Someone should make these kind of videos for the rest of the instruments!!
one of my favorite videos on youtube. absolutely insane
Absolutely awesome. I can't imagine how much work you put into this to get it all lined up and the various parts.
Would love to see this for the entire Planets suite! I’ve always wanted to hear music from the perspective of certain groups of instruments. Flutes are an especially interesting listen out of all the woodwind. Keep up the outstanding playing!
Such a good idea

I'm thinking of making one for the oboes this summer! I don't have an English horn though so I'll have to edit an oboe to sound down a fifth
This truly highlights what a masterpiece in orchestration and part writing this piece is.
Great playing! Thank you!

cool
Please do Daphnis et Chloe next please.
I thought you made an arrangement for only flutes...😅
That would have been something!!! How many flutes would that have taken (from bass-flute to piccolo)!
Also love the arrangement for 4 piano's
Love your video of this masterpiece.
Any tips on counting difficult rests/passages?
2:19 wait was that the lick
With some passing notes, but yes!
It took me a minute to realize you didn’t just cut your hair to record the alto flute part 😂 great playing 👏🏼
How did you not hear the flute parts while listening to the orchestra? Did you cut them out? I'm genuinely curious.
I aspire to be this good. How long have you been playing?
How did you remove the flute parts from the original recording?
I am trying to be as considerate to the players as possible when I do orchestration. Meanwhile composers are doing THIS.
Nooo! Don't die camera!!! 😢😂
Amazing. By the way, I'm a Rite lover, not specifically a flute lover (though of course flutes are cool, and a great part of the orchestra.)
