That flute is having the time of his life
Zach Watson Those are hard runs!!
Someone brought him jollity.
Zach Watson its bc he’s heard for once lmao
zebra3stripes HA
@@zebra3stripes I see what you did there.
God damn that horn player is doing some of the finest blending of tone I've ever heard!
Horn player is a rock star
Don't say God damn...bad karma😮
@@JosephSalinas-r4r you've mixed up your religions there...Skydaddy doesn't like that.
I am JEALOUS of that bassoonist
Such a rich bassoon sound...
Jerry Of All Trades you’ll get there
I play the bassoon but just let me tell you I will probably never be that good. Lol
Kaylan Castillo same here mate same here
I am the 500th like. :)
Im just jealous full stop.
They really played this whole 8 minute piece from memory, go off
I mean that’s like marching band
@@Joe-bb4yi I feel like this piece is a bit more complicated than most marching pieces though
Taku way harder than marching band music
@@mikeyeyey8678 I mean that's like dci
@@mikeyeyey8678 see Cavaliers 1995
Quite an arrangement! Playing from memory! 😃 The Horn player nailed this with clear, smooth sound!
fantastic 5,
i love it.
She really did!
They are really PLAYING with each other!
The paper isn’t in the way
How can you play such a long part on the horn without it sounding full of condensation? Congrats to them musicians for such a wonderful job.
I'm pretty sure both the horn players are female, while the 2 men are playing the clarinet and flute. Still an amazing composition though. Very beautiful.
Motya Mer, it is a woodwind quintet, with only one horn (on the right. Going left from her, Bassoon, Clarinet, Oboe, and Flute. The Horn is the oddball, being the only member of the Woodwind Quintet which is technically not a woodwind (it is a brass instrument with a cup mouthpiece, where the woodwind instruments were, historically, made from wood. The Clarinet, Oboe, and Bassoon use reeds, the Flute, just an “embouchure hole”.
Sounds like a full band with even small numbers.
Love how you almost don´t hear it when the horn takes over the clarinets tone in 2:46
Ester Aasland actually that’s crazy oh my gosh
Ester Aasland it’s clarinet and oboe..
If you're talking about the hand-over long tone, then it's actually the bassoon and horn, not the clarinet and oboe.
See no one can tell because they’re sooo freaking good at their ensemble sound.
It's definetely clarinet and horn like the original commenter said. Anyone who says otherwise must be deaf, blind or both: just look at which of them even have their reeds/mouthpieces in their mouth.
How miserable do you have to be to dislike this?
I think that they misunderstood wind and thought it meant woodwind and are angry about the French horn.
this comment got more than 80% of the dislikes on this video
@@hannahreid1549 Yeah, pretty much. Some people don't get that saxophones are relatively young instruments, so in the time period where these woodwind ensembles were popular among composers, there was no alto saxophone to fill in the "alto" voicing. Therefore, they had to write in a horn instead and call it a "Wind quintet" for that reason.
Like they say: " Some people will complain about anything ( and everything ) on God's green earth, including God and the green earth."
Personally I love it. I think it's great !!
Sometimes its just a lack of understanding.
We see the exquisite playing and hear the brilliant technique and easily forget....THEY ARE PLAYING THIS ALL FROM MEMORY! Such a great performance.
And let’s further not forget Holst’s brilliance at writing this intricate piece of music!
Very clean! And that's a LONG piece to memorize
Austin Martín Hernandez
Oh trust, I've tried but couldn't do it...ESP like they did
Ever watched dci? Prepare to be amazed!
I've watched several clips but I'm pretty sure you'd agree that experiencing it live is amazing!
This is perfectly do-able for some musicians; think of pianist Yuja Wang who has between 8 or more complete piano concerti memorized. And we're talking Brahms, Beethoven, Prokofiev, and others!
Yeah, that's just at such an advanced level. As we used to say, they're playing around the notes on the sheet music.
This Quintet is outstandingly rehearsed, many overlook the timing & intimacy in the phasing. The timing, spot on, interplay with a solo brass, spot on. What hit me, was from right to left, the fills near the conclusion, each instrument spoke. Mind you, I just happened upon this, I was blown away. I was into Classical at an early age
Arthur Denny This is a standard wind quintet. There are thousands of different recordings done by this type of ensemble. I hope your excitement of love for this ensemble only grows.
@@markjuarez6469 what do you mean???
simply beautiful! the horn is so melty and regal in its tone
that interaction between the musicians though! marvellous!
Memorizing music really really helps in this regard. You have almost no choice but to look at and interact with the other players :)
Jupiter holds such a special place in my heart, and this was an absolutely amazing arrangement of it! I was a tuba player in school, but I always said that if I ever did it again with a different instrument, it would be a French Horn or a Bassoon. Both have such a rich, mellow sound and this really takes advantage of that! Well done!
*Cough.* Euphoniums also have a quite a nice sound
@@jacksonhunter2621 I won't argue. They are beautiful! I had a friend who had a gorgeous one in high school and he let me play it. It was like drinking a fine whiskey. Smooth and rich!
I play bassoon and it sounds really good when I play it right
Love the smile the oboe layer gives the bassoonist at 2:46, lovely moment in an incredible performance!
I think you're a little confused...it was the bassoon player giving the OBOE player the smile, not the other way around!
Her: He’s probably cheating
Me and the boys:
As a fellow f. Horn player I’m impressed with her ability to meld perfectly into the woodwind’s tone when needed and also have her brass moments come through to the fore with a nice layered, dynamic tone to complement the rest of the wind arrangement rather than overpowering it.
I’m not familiar with horns. Is her other hand inside the horn to mute it some?
@@bigpompano1659 Tuning, more so
This woodwind quintet played with extraordinary musicality and artistry! It’s an honor to hear this amazing Holst composition performed at such a high level. Bravo!
Sam Rowley that’s a French horn
I know that’s a French Horn. I’m at Music Professor and Conductor my friend. I called this ensemble a “Woodwind Quintet”. In case you didn’t know a woodwind quintet instrumentation consist of the following: clarinet, flute, oboe, French Horn and Bassoon
Brendan Roberts you just got your middle school band kid ass handed to you on a brass platter
Sam Rowley but the horn is not a woodwind. It’s a brass instrument. If it were a woodwind quintet, then the horn would be replaced by an alto saxophone.
Jose Hill no shit stupid. He just told this other kid he’s a music professor and conductor. Idk abt you but I’m gonna just believe whatever he says about music
Amazing! That horn part though, it just melts and blends with the woodwinds beautifully! A joy to the ear
The Bassonist was my teacher at a bassoon camp, she's awesome! She also has videos on The Breaking Winds YT Channel
God i wish i could play just as good as her 😫 its so gorgeous
The oboe player's tone is godly.
this is mad, i love it. capturing a whole orchestra in just five musicians
Didn't think it could be done, also. A most pleasant 7+ minutes.
This group gives off vibes of all having been best friends since middle school.
I could top all state if I was 1/8th as good as this flautist! His tone is super crisp and full, I love it.
They're all amazing though! Gotta find where the oboist got her lessons because she's an icon.
Agreed
This is why horn is the chameleon of the band. It’s also the best instrument ever btw.
this and clarinets being the violins of concert band are the best ways I've ever heard instruments described.
In the hands of a pro, yes. With amateur musicians, a euphonium can sound just as beautiful without the cracking notes.
majcrash correct. Beginners, whenever trying to play the same note, pull a Fred and say, “let’s split up, gang.”
majcrash I have no idea what level you’re at but once you get to about eighth grade (assuming you started at sixth) the horns clearly have a better tone than the euphonium
@@samwescoat5750 Sounds like you've never played in a community band.
I just heard the person taking clarinet lessons before me playing this yesterday and now it’s in my recommended wtf
Unglaublich. Nicht nur die musikalische Qualität, auch die Kommunikation untereinander. Bravo!
That oboe is so beautiful
And with 3 LADYS,yes we are in 2023….things has happend in the world of music….listen to the horn player….I am very impressed…give us more from you…of all the windquintet on UA-cam in 2024 you topp the list..first time a quintet with all the players seems to have the same sound….that is unik…hope you understand. Regards from a retired collega..
Why is Tom Hanks playing the clarinet
omg.. why does that kinda look like him..
True
Even though Hanks is better known for his _Basset Horne_ ability, he is equally expert on alto clarinet, and there was no part written for Basset Horne in this arrangement. 😉
The flutist was straight up VIBING!! I wish I had that sound; time to start practicing more. ( = v=)
Masterful transcription and great performance--from memory no less.
Everyone's favorite planet has never shone more brilliantly.
Fine playing of an arrangement that mostly captures Jupiter's musical content.
I played oboe in a quintet for a number of years. Many people do not realize how physically demanding chamber music is! You have far fewer rests than when playing in an orchestra, and every note is going to be heard, including the clams! That these players make it look easy is credit to countless hours of practice and rehearsal plus native talent and hard-won endurance.
I remember horking up something hard and chunky while playing bassoon in a quintet because the playing was so demanding. It happened just that once. To this day I have no idea what it was or which body cavity it came from.
Saw this amazing group at the Schneider Concerts at the New School in NYC this weekend. SO fresh and in sync with each other. Loved the range of music from early 19th century to early 21st century. You are in for a treat if you can catch them in person!
Wow! Fantastic. Makes the genius of Holsts' writing so transparent.
That man is a flute god😍
They’re all gods
They're none of them too shabby.
I wonder who is responsible for the arrangement? It brilliantly shows Holst's ingenuity in combining the threads into a compelling whole.
Our bassoonist, Kara LaMoure is responsible!!
This brought me to tears because I remember playing this for marching band my senior year, I remember my trumpet one solo at 3:02 I remember standing on the 50 yard line playing my soul out on that solo, whole field silent for me...
That solo got me a full ride scholarship to a university in Texas.
My proudest moment, other than graduating TDCJ academy.
Thank you for reminding me of an incredible moment of my little uneventful life.
What school did you march for?
This is so awesome. Didn't know five instruments could make Jupiter sound so cool, almost cooler than a whole orchestra in many ways.
最も無駄のないクインテット。
管楽器しかないのに弦楽器の音すら感じられる素晴らしい演奏。
日本人いたー！
綺麗な演奏ですよね☺️
オーケストラになってるように聴こえます
なんの曲ですか？？
@@トランペット吹こうよ ホルストの惑星より、"木星"
Lovely
I wish I could play the French Horn like this and this arrangement is amazingly beautiful!
I stoped playing flute 3 yrs ago, and I played this in my 11th grade band class, found this video and I wanna start playing again
All memorized? Just incredible!
Auto tuned
That oboist is amazing, I can only imagine. But regardless they sounded great, and I really love this piece.
This low brass player is profoundly impressed! Great music-making, wonderful interaction among musicians and audience, great arrangement. Bravi.
This is an amazing arrangement!!! You captured all the textures and power of the whole orchestra with such a small ensamble. Kudos! And fantastically performed as well, Cheers!!
Absolutely superb performance, tempi and dynamics spot on. What seriously talented musicians they are. A fantastic arrangement too.
ダブルードの御二方の音の響きの広がり方が美しすぎる！！フルートの方の音の魅せ方にとっても惹き込まれました！ホルンの方の音色がどタイプてます！クラの方は音色と発音がめちゃめちゃ綺麗で憧れます！私もこんな音色で吹きたいです！
There needs to be a convention of all the best musician groups on UA-cam to form the greatest symphonic orchestra. Calling up mnozil brass, this group, and the rest of the sections would make a group that is beyond phenomenal. Even better, they are already amazing as they are.
Well done. I am glad I stumbled across this. Love hearing the distinct voices by accomplished players. Good arrangement.
the oboe sounds so good🥺‼️as well as the French horn!!
Likewise the other things.
Flute and clarinet: a match made in heaven. It only took me about fifty years to ‘get it’. I like watching the UK’s National high school age kids at the Royal Albert Hall; the sheer volume of instruments is astounding. But with just five superb musicians, playing with feeling and precision, it is even better! I do not know how this was recorded, but the instruments meld beautifully. Perfect dynamics!
Wow the clarinetist killed it! Bravo to everyone, that takes skill
Bravo to everyone, especially Anni, great Horn!!
各楽器の個性が活かされててすごく心地好い！
この色彩の豊富さは金管や弦よりも優れてると思う
五重奏辺りがそれぞれの楽器の個性が出ていいですよね。
さらに奏者の個性も出てるところがアンサンブルの妙だと思う。
While I probably agree, I'm uncertain.
UA-cam recommeded this to me because I always listen to the orchestra version by Andrew Manze. Boy, am I in for a surprise. This arrangement is absolutely beautiful. Great performance. Bravo 👍
The bassoonist's intonation is so good!
That horn player sounds so good. Not that they all didn't, I just know how very difficult horn is, and that just rocked.
This is one of the coolest sounding ensembles I’ve ever heard! Perfect combination of instruments! John Williams would give you his two handed thumbs up 👍 👍 approval!!
(Every player in this quintet is a master performer!!)
The Hymn portion is so good. Everyone is superb here.
I've been showing this video to my elementary school players for years. Even a 10 yr. old can tell that this is special.
that's a whole ass 8 minute piece from memory holy crap
The flute playing is soo amazing! They all are extremely talented! 😄
Brought home a bunch of trophies with this piece back in the 90s. Thanks for the memories.
Brilliant arrangement and performance! Sounds idiomatic for this ensemble. Hope to hear this one live next month in Kokomo, keep up the good work!
That arrangement is great!
And the players too, of course
Found you!
And yeah, I totally agree. Surprising what you can do with just five people.
Sounds like being in outer space with stars twinkling all around and then the majesty of a big planet. Kept waiting for something on whatever is on the drum stand to happen but beautiful job musicians!
oboist did a great job! tbh all of them are astonishing :O the horn sound gave me goosebumps
Wow. The complexity of sound coming from just 5 voices, and the dynamics and blending are absolutely perfect. Awesome performance.
this arrangement got me bawling. its like a toddler version of jupiter and i just imagine a baby walking around jamming to this
I really admire the oboe and bassoon players. Never played them but have heard that they are the most difficult wind instruments to play well. Great job!
Wow! All the big record companies through the years stuffing this composition with sound-o-Rama techniques.......and THIS rendition is what I appreciate the most.
Thank you.
The opening will always be challengingly beautiful to me
ホルンの低音正確に当たっててすごいですね！ 木管と馴染んでる！きれいーーー
Hats off to you guys... Specially horn and bassoon player..
This piece was used in the Movie, The Right Stuff, I heard myself say out loud, God Speed John Glenn. Great performance!
oh my god... that moment at 6:40 was just beautiful. The clarinet sounds beautiful with the runs right after... what an amazing piece!!!!!
Amazing performance! I sometimes have times where I don't listen to classical in a long time. I get very irrational and I think I'll lose my passion and love for it. But things like this that make my ears crave, my back shiver, and smiles crack on my lips remind me why I fell in love with music in the first place. Thank you so much
The horn and bassoon sound so beautiful! 3:02 is my FAVORITE part
Well done to the whole group! That was a really fine performance! The bassoonists articulation was particularly nice.
One of my favorite pieces (I love this version). They are just a great band; like many great bands they have awesome synergy.
Holy COW! Great playing and exquisite arranging.
Superb performance, 1 horn takes the place of 6 and sounds totally convincing. Wonderful.
This is the most amazing thing I have heard in a long time. Incredible!
This is so freakishly amazing I catch myself watching it over and over again. Thank you so much for posting it. Love love, love love love
Amazing group of talents! Love the sound of the oboe!
Absolutely wonderful performance, especially in their communication and muscisionship
That horn is gorgeous, and the whole group blends so well!!
What a privilege 🙏🙏🙏🙏 Bravo!
And what an absolute masterpiece…., past the edges of my mind🌹🙏
Great performance of this Holtz masterpiece transcribed for 5 pieces----sounds great!
Unbelievable talent, not to mention probably a lot of rehearsals! Good show!
BRAVO!!!!! Articulation, pitch, great tone: WOW! Thank you.
Don Dodson
Retired Oboist
All from memory! So well performed
While I can't say that this compares to the gigantic work that is "The Planets," I must admit that THIS is a brilliant arrangement. Bravo!
10 months later I still love this!
This was so insanely good. The articulated parts are so so hard in the original orchestra version. And to memorize everything and stand! This was so much harder than it looked and they made it sound effortless!!
My school band just played this piece for our last concert in December!
This is masterfully done. Listening to it and I thought why would we even need a full band. Perfectly done
This is one of my favorite pieces of music. To hear it played by these amazing musicians is just breathtaking. The flautist is having a blast for sure. The sound from the oboe is just exquisite. The clarinet is warm and inviting. The horn player has an incredible ear and does not overwhelm the clarity of volume produced in a piece like this. Of course I am biased towards the bassoon because I played bassoon. I love her sound and the arrangement of this piece hit all the right spots. Loved it. ❤
