He's a DJ in classical music. 👏😘
Yes its like a remix!
This man has the most magical ear for music, and the humour to go with it, well done Rainer and orchestra! Australia 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Oh PLEASE let me see this man and these wonderful musicians live somewhere, sometime.
Agree!
No
@@trolloler5954 poor, unfortunate soul...
I'll join you
It would be awsome for sure
All credit to the musicians, I'm sure they're all very familiar with the music they normally play and then this!! How can they not just cry with delight with these arrangements that push thier talents. Respect
Bach meets Gershwin meets Hersch.....awesome Rainer. 👏🏻
And Bernstein!
And I think the whole lot of them would be pleased that their music has lived on long enough for this delightful mash-up!
@@KSMSDRPEPPER Writing a masterpiece is a challenge. Blending so many different masterpieces into one homogeneous whole speaks well of all!
How do people sit still listening to this? I am rocking out to this in my seat.
I've never known a man like that is really existing! So so great and well known in all the music and sounds! I love him 🎶👍❤🎵
This man and his orchestra never fail to make me smile.
I doubt you'll ever see this, but to the horn player, I love your low-down tone. Great "fat" sound. Not enough players know how to embrace the raspiness below middle C. The notes leading up to that A in the opening statements really have some kick. Smashed it. From a former player.
Thank you for that. The horn player is called Sam Pearce. He is Rainer Hersch's regular horn player. We will get the message to him and are sure he will be delighted with your very informed comments.
Thank you for your very kind words Tom, what a lovely thing to say!
@@sampearce4551 Awesome. Glad you saw this - technology works!
Oh, and I meant G...it's been a long time since I've played and I went a fifth in the wrong direction! I used to play 4th in a bunch of youth orchestras due to my low-down ability (my embouchure was rubbish so I'd tire with constant high notes). I did, however, complete my A.Mus.A (in Australia) in 2003, but I chose not to make music my career, and with university and life getting in the way, I gave up a few years later and haven't played since. I still love listening to music, and hearing a good horn player with great tone still excited me. All the best.
Absolute unit.
Honestly have to give these musicians lots of credit for their great skill and not falling over with laughter cause I couldn't do it.
I remember you in Oxord at the May Festival a few years ago organised by Jack Lebeck.Fantastic opera spoof!
Yay. I see Jack (Liebeck) socially. He is a terrific violinist.
i have just come across the guy Rainer Hersch ..... if that's what happens at his concerts then i have been missing out ..... a very remarkable act and very funny too .......... i will be looking to see if he is coming to my area so i can get tickets
Tocatta and Fugue in Mambo and Tango Minor!
JSB is having a party upstears 💖👌🤗
It's my sincere prayer that I get to listen to this genius and his goofballs some day!!
west side story....amazing. I love that music so much.
I don't, but this is still fun!
Génial !!! Tocatta ! = Mambo ! , inspiration Bernstein !! Bravo !
As often as I have come across this I never "read into it" what I heard in this video.
VERY INTERESTING!
very creatively ... with respect to all classical masterpieces, and all Classical Remixes, this is new cool kind of music too..
This is like West Side Story meets Addams Family...
Well said. I hoped I wasn't the only one who heard it enmeshed in the piece.
Right
Bach meets Gershwin
@@spirkospirko5729 . Don't you mean "Bach meets Bernstein"?
@@spirkospirko5729 Yes! But I'd add: Bach, Gershwin, with a little dash of Ricky Riccardo.
I STILL claim that no matter how hard they try to spoil Bach - he always survives!
Considering how much Bach himself played around with music, his innumerable variations on a theme, does this not fall into the same theme of play? I wouldn't say that they "spoiled" it. They played with it using styles and techniques that Bach didn't have. They aren't claiming to be playing Bach's work faithfully (though what is that, really?). It's an experiment and everyone in the audience knows that.
What I mean by "playing it faithfully" is that Bach was so prolific in his writing that he couldn't write each part the way musicians receive them now. They'd get basic themes and notes but the score wouldn't be complete in the way we know them now. I'd bet that there's more than one piece of Bach's that if he heard them today he'd say that they aren't being played they way he intended.
I agree with you, though. The integrity of Bach's works are so sound that they stand up to experiments like this.
Could use some more COWBELL!
...you got the fever!

answers are toccata and Jakarta!
and departures
and archers
Always such an amazing medley.
cool west side story and toccata
I was surprised when you suddenly mentioned Indonesia and Jakarta in your performance. Greetings from Indonesia! 🇮🇩❤️🔥
Absolutely brilliant!!!!
A new twist on one of my favourites--The Toccata!! Well done!
Makes me nostalgic for PDQ Bach
Awesome! Only used to hear this as organmusic :D
Im so amaze with your orchestra
Absolutely delightful thank you. Xx
I love this piece played on the organ for which it was written but i must admit Rainer Hersch certainly makes u laugh with his interpretations of different music. It must give the orchestras he works with a change to play a known piece but to totally differently arrangement. It us a lot if fun.
Why haven't I heard of this guy before, where have I been all my life??
Look up the Windows waltz
Fine piece of comedic music. That was nice to watch and hear. Bravo.
that's really cool. Thanks for it, Rainer. One of your best peaces!!
Creatively written! Well done!
This is gold.
it's a Bossa! 😁 Love it! 👏👏👏
Any of you hear him turning in his grave? Because I don't, he'd love to see his pieces are still played.
Turning? No, those are pirouettes while dancing.
He's brilliant luv him.
perfect! great and hilarious! genious!!!!! loved it!!!!
Brilliant. Thanks!
Brilliant!
Oh my gosh, this is just too much fun!
Made my day!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

This reminds me of The Piano Guys Rockabell Cannon. Rather jazzed up. Love it!
Great!

Wonderful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Grossartig.
Nice borrowing from Bernstein's "West Side Story" -- love it! Truly brilliant work.
I love you sir Rainer..... Your amazing...❤❤❤❤❤❤

I'm glad this in my recommendation :)
0:41 I was NOT expecting that, had me jumping out of my seat to dance 😅
So brilliant! Brava! :)
Wow this is brilliant
I like the Busoni allusion.
My left ear really enjoyed the video.
Блестяще!!!!спасибо!
Juste énorme ...
Nouveau Festival Hoffnung ! ! !
Funny compilation!!
Good thing this channel hasn't died
Wow geil
Fabulous! xD
EXCELENTE…!! PERFECTO…!! 👍🏼👣🩴
This man is a fucking genius
HELLO FROM INDONESIA,im from central java and i really thank you and enjoy this music,keep the good job sir!
Thanks. Hello to the people of Indonesia! Please share with ALL OF THEM :-)
christopher akami ngendi mas jawa tengaeh?
Bach would love to hear this, I think.
Complete nut case. Keep 'em coming!
THE ARCHERS!!!!!
May 11 2018. I think 40 people either don't like music or have no sense of humour!
or both ;-)
Pyotr Leflegin--Let's leave it at those 40 (now 78 as of 11/20/19) haven't been trained well enough in music to recognize the influence that the Classical Master had/have on the successive generations of musicians and composers (and conductors).
There is nothing humorous in this. Just a terrible mess of Bach (which, by the way, has a marvelous drive by itself, doesn't need this kind of creepy versions) and mambo, which I also like as such. Just a complete waste of time, energy and musicianship. Boring!
musikerman52 it’s just a bit of fun to liven up a piece that’s getting a bit boring and very overplayed for anyone, especially organists such as myself, the original is albeit an amazing piece but this isn’t to be taken seriously at all...
@@musikerman52 somebody's got a stick up their butt. :-) come on man lighten up-- we got enough trouble these days without somebody being old poopy face
P.D.Q. Bach for new generation
I hear undetones of the "mambo" from "West Side Story" here and there.
I gotta have more cow bell !
Cool :)
Me lleva a apreciar toda la genialidad pionera de Gershwin. Magnífica reinterpretación de Bach en mambo. Desde Lima, Perú
This is so much Fun !.. I associate Toccata & Fugue in D Minor with scary movies, Vincent Price, and such, anyway... So I was thinking of Price's Dr. Phibes dancing and "gettin' Funky" with this version... Great fun ! .. Thank You !
I used to hear it at school while the organ scholars were practising in the great hall. Made Economics A Level worth attending.
I would so love to hear his take on some of Elmer Bernstein's themes.
G É N I A L !!!!!
1:15 the piece is J.S. Bach's BWV 565, Toccata and Fugue in D minor.
Sweeeeeet!
This was amazing! Can you possibly come to my high school? That’d be an amazing for the music students
In few years, the Capital of Indonesia will move to East Kalimantan (the name of the new capital is not decided yet), so maybe this video need to renew the question 😅
I loved the piece overall, but I liked the violins.
Jakarta Indonesia !!!! Handsup...
please perform in singapore once corona dies down, would love to laugh with you and bless my ears with your orchestra music :)
Bach AND Bernstein !!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This would be good for a remake or Spoof of GYRUSS!
bagus banget mbah 😍
