SAINT-SAËNS Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso | Nicolas BALDEYROU and friends

- Dear friends, I hope you’re well and I’m very happy to share this new video, where I’m playing with great musicians one of my favorite violin pieces, introduction and Rondo capriccioso by Camille Saint-Saëns !
Saint-Saëns composed this work in 1863. Like many composers who write concertos for instruments they do not play, Saint-Saëns welcomed the advice of the great Spanish violinist, Pablo de Sarasate, when he composed music for solo violin. They met when Sarasate was just fifteen and Saint-Saëns twenty-four, and at the famous violin had approached Saint-Saëns hoping that he would compose something for him to play. « As if it were the easiest thing in the world, he had come quite simply to ask me to write a concerto for him ». Saint-Saëns, like Bruch, Lalo, Joachim, Wieniawski, and Dvořák in the coming years, was flattered and charmed by Sarasate’s request, and agreed at once. The first work he composed for Sarasate, completed that same year (1859), was his A major violin concerto. Four years later, he wrote this Introduction and Rondo capriccioso, a brief work with a reflective opening, almost like an operatic recitative and a dazzling aria full of fireworks, tailor-made to show off Sarasate’s famed technique. It immediately became standard virtuoso fare.
Many people already arranged the piece for clarinet, but I decided to do my own arrangement, trying to make it sound as natural as possible, and after long hesitation (I first tried Bb clarinet and D clarinet), I chose to use an A clarinet to respect the original key.
Let me know what you think about it ! And if you like it you can already order the arrangement on www.clarinet-ed...
Of course I would like to thank Mathilde Calderini (flute), Hélène Devilleneuve (oboe) and Marie Boichard for joining me with such talent on this video ! 🙏🙏🙏✨
Have a nice Sunday and take care !
The thing I like the most about Nicolas is that he seem like he practice every second of the day but he cares a lot about his fans and always like their comment also comment on them this guys is such a nice person 🎼🎼🎼😀
Thank you so much ! I’m really grateful for these nice comments and try to answer as often as I can 😊🙏🏼
And Saint-Saens is in the audience! 3:33
Bravo for noticing !!! 🤩🤩🤩
!!!!!
yes, I saw him too! Thanks for pointing him out!
Amen. You make it sound so effortless. And all the musicality is all there. TwoSet should give you a subs bump. Clearly a LingLing clarinet level here
Thank you so much Victor !
I mean for me he’s not a ling ling, because I associate the concept of ling ling with only playing Paganini and Wieniawski at a blazing speed, being very technical and a show-off. He’s more like a Hilary Hahn. An impossibly good musician who uses their flawless technique merely as a tool to achieve the musical results they envision.
@@FranciscoCunha2004 Ling Ling can flex Paganini's or any pieces with the Perlman's effortlessly and Janine's intensity with Hilary's speed, all at the same time
This is to good to be true,I meen Fantastic playing…nothing more to say from me…Yes,the cloning and the arragment is also on the sublime side..
I think we are very fortunate to have people like Nicolas Baldeyrou who are constantly pushing the limits and boundaries of the instrument, and bringing it to never-before-seen heights! Truly the Paganini of Clarinet! :)
Thank you so much!
Exceptionnel. Nicolas Baldeyrou est sans conteste un des meilleurs clarinettistes au monde.
Mille mercis Laurent !
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 De rien, c'est normal vu le niveau
I'm pretty sure you are the most amazing clarinetist in the world
Did Andi Ottensamer die?
Absolutely
@@swaglord5909 Not yet.. fortunately, he did not see this video. But if he would, who knows !
Your arrangement is so solid, flawless and beautiful. If I hadn't known the piece is originally written for violin I'd have thought this rondo is for clarinet. Amazing as always. Thank you for your hard work!
That’s a wonderful compliment for an arranger, thanks so much Raúl !
なんて素晴らしいのでしょう!自分はこの曲のバイオリン大好きですが…クラリネットでこの様な明確な音出せるなんて!敬服します!😮👏👏👏
Why doesn't everyone stop what they are doing and binge watch this channel?
Thank you so much! If you look for a community manager job 😁
Splendide . Mon fils de deux ans te remercie infiniment ! ...tous les matins , il vient me voir pour me demander decouter de la clarinette en disant cla i nette...cla i nette.
J’adore 😍 merci beaucoup ! Ce petit promet beaucoup ! 😁
it's very impressive, it's great on La Clarinet, I never imagined that this piece could sound so fantastic on the clarinet ! bravo! Especially I love the music of Saint-Saens, especially the organ symphony.
Thank you so much !
I wish I could like this every time I listen to this piece, it amazes me each and every time.
Thank you so much :-))
Nicolas! You're the best clarinete player ever and outstanding musician! And Your friends too!
3:33 Saint-Saens è in sala che ascolta😲🔝
Yesss ! Bravoooo !
Excellent performance...
Fantastic: Nicolas BALDEYROU and friends (all friends are identical...) Bravo..!!
Got to love you, Nicolas, for your musicality, technique, humor and enthusiasm. Your channel is one of the best things that came out of this corona crisis.
One of my all time favorite pieces! Thank you 🙏 also 5:00 ...dang
The double/quick tounging is awesome!
I love this piece too for such a long time :-)) thank you Ian !
Gold as always Nicolas(and friends).
Thanks so much 😊🙏🏼
I am mind-blown, awestruck, amazed... I can’t even think of enough adjectives at this point! Every performance is so flawless. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Happy that you like it 🙏🏼🙏🏼😊✨
Ah...If only I had grown up understanding that double-tonguing would be "of course" on the clarinet. If I had UA-cam growing up, I might have grown up knowing the level that humans could reach in musicality and technique ("You can play the Nielsen Concerto? Bah! So what?!"). You are amazing and inspiring. Much respect.
I know, cloning of humans is ethically problematic, but in this case is totally justified.
😂😂 thank you Benno ! Especially during lockdown !
Very nice.
For our clarinettists!
Who else is coming here everyday to watch these videos wishing we could all play like Nicholas? Absolutely love your videos...... a small (or not so small) request from me, Please could you make your version of Saint Saens Dance Macabre?
Thank you so much Charlene ! That’s a great idea, I’ll try to do it for next Halloween I guess ! 😊
C'est extraordinaire de vous écouter et de vous voir à l'œuvre avec tous ces instruments. Bravo et merci pour ce plaisir que vous offrez.
Фантастика !
Одно удовольствие смотреть и слушать !

I love this! The sul g section sound so much like sul g! I love this! Once again, it is like honey to our ears! Thank you, Maestro!🙂
Thank you so much ! So happy you pay attention to all details 🙏🏼✨

The greatest clarinetist of the world!!!!
Un violinista non avrebbe potuto far meglio! Bravo tu e brave le tue amiche!

Haha, the Konzerthaus in Berlin in the Background!
I also love playing there with the orchestra...the acoustic and the atmosphere is so great!!
Hearing this piece and seeing this background together is just amazing!!!
Absolutely 😁 one of my favorite concert halls 😍
Que lindo!🙏❤️💐👏👏👏🇧🇷
For Christ sake's, Nicolas, you never cease to amaze me! I loved this piece of CSS since I first listened to it, many years ago, on violin, of course, but your arrangement is absolute genius. I come here over and over again to listen to this piece of pure art. Thank you for the bottom of my heart for all of these gorgeous pieces you are offering to us, such generously! With immense respect and love, from Romania!
Thank you! This is also one of my favorite all time pieces 🔥
今回に限ったことじゃないけど、響きは保ったまま歯切れがめちゃめちゃ綺麗なのが本当に憧れ😍
私は重度のもさもさしがちなので目標にしてます!!
This is the perfect conclusion to a beautiful snowy day. Thank you for the many gifts!

Vous êtes un artiste impressionnant par votre virtuosité, votre magnifique son, votre détaché, votre respiration circulaire avec un ton d'autodérision qui fait que l'on aime regarder vos vidéos. Vous m'avez bluffé à jouer d'autant d'instruments.
Bravississimo.

Bravo Nicolas.
Il n'y a pas de mots pour décrire la beauté et la virtuosité de votre jeu, maestro. Une interprétation absolument passionnante de l'un des plus grands chefs-d'œuvre du violon. L'arrangement est très fidèle à l'original et les valeurs de production de la vidéo sont magnifiques.

Блестящая игра!!! Великолепная аранжировка!!! Да это же просто чудеса какие то !!!

Wow. Even by the standard of your other videos this is stunningly good. All the more so because technical agility is usually a lot harder on an A clarinet. And the production is so charming.
Thank you so much Marko !

One of the very very few positives of Covid lockdowns etc has been this series of virtuosic yet humourous videos. Thoroughly enjoyed and inspired by them all.
Thank you so much John !
Nicolas you have made me pick up my clarinet again. Thank you very much.

Yo alucino!!! Si me lo cuentan no me lo creo. Nicolás es nivel dios
Um espetáculo! Muito legal!!
Muito obrigado !
A superb performance, bravo. Your arrangement is excellent, it sounds balanced and totally natural and authentic. Do we really need string players.
Oh yes, who was the single figure sat in the audience, it looked like Tchaikovsky!
Thank you so much Steve ! The bearded guy in the public is Saint-Saens himself 😁
I figured it was Saint-Saens, himself. But I must admit I did have to Google him first. 👍
Superb !
amazing - thank you
🙏🙏✨
I think you play with such a unique lightness! I also played this piece on the clarinet, but I couldn't do it so perfectly. The jourie said I shouldn't play pieces of music that are so clearly composed for violin, because you can never do it that way with a clarinet.... but you can!!! I like it even better than with violin :)
Awww yiiissss violin pieces
E Saint-Saens è molto felice da lassù....sempre Super Nicolas !
Thank you Giuseppe !
Hugh Laurie on drums! Great video, loved it. And with one of my favourite flutists as well! 🇳🇿
Comme d' hab l ultra excellence !!!. Cela nous inspire mais nous indique aussi que le chemin est long !!
Nicolas le Mozart de la clarinette!
🙏🏼😊✨✨
Ça envoie du bois! Et c'est le cas de le dire! 😁
So beautiful ! 👏👏👏
Very very good and beautiful 👏👏👏👏👏👏 thank you Professor Nicolas 😊👍🏼👍🏼

Bellissimo arrangiamento, complimenti!
Grazie mille Giacomo !
