Why is my musical ear tortured since 50 years now in radio and everywhere when there exists such a beautifull music for centuries .But we can listen to it whenever we want .on youtube.Yeah
For those commenting on the presence of percussion. This was dance music. It had percussion. Kapsberger named the piece 'Canarios', after a dance form that was popular in Spain, but originally came from the Canary Islands. (Just off the coast of West Africa). The presence of properly clad dancers, with tap-shoes performing the percussion, would not rule out other percussive instruments (albeit maybe not, traditionally, the Tombak). It is just that paper was so expensive - the other parts were not written down. By the same token, harmonization: musicians of the period were expected to derive a harmony from the bass-line in real-time. This was called 'Basso Continuo'. (Here is another interpretation of the same piece: ua-cam.com/video/ZtDyHrGdp6E/v-deo.html with percussive dance.)
I find that the addition of rhythm can make some renaissance and baroque dance music come to life...not saying we should add it to everything, but it can really work for me
Of course percussion was used, but they didn't play it like that; like a Portland hippy-punk in a vegetarian-only drum circle... I've never been to the Canary Islands, but anyone can hear that this bongo-thing is not going good with the Theorbo.
The idea of music being performed strictly as written and for specific instruments is fairly recent. In this era, composers who could get published often published very spare manuscripts because the effort to be too florid with the printing presses of the era would have been too cumbersome. Parts could be performed by a set of viols, recorders, voices, or any other instruments available to the locals who purchased the manuscripts. And 17th century Rome, Kapsberger's stomping grounds, would have been full of diversity and flavor. While this drum performance isn't particularly "historical," the idea of musicians noodling around and improvising on whatever instruments were available is certainly the spirit of the era. So you are free now just to enjoy. Merry Christmas.

Diego Lopez is genius . Not only he learned the Iranian Tombak, he learned it good. He is infusing the Persian tune with Medieval Europe. Great taste, I think Lopez is the first for this infusion. He plays without any accent. He can play anytime with Iranian groups, a traditional song. On UA-cam I saw Siavash Rastani , infused Zarb, Daf and Tombak with medieval European Music. But Diego Lupez is the first one. thank you and greetings from Iran/California.
Impeccable. Wonderful performance. Wonderfully recorded. Such a delight to hear! My only regret is that it was published in 2014 and the algorithm is just bringing it up now???
It is difficult to explain the almost-mantric allure of this beautiful piece. I play this version of the Canarios on my guitar with my eyes closed and let my mind go. I love this interpretation of this jewel by these talented musicians. The use of the tombak is very fitting as the lute origins comes from the Africa and the Middle East and became fashionable in Europe to have Court musicians well versed in the use of the lute theorbo or chitarrone. Bravo!
'Canario" was popular music. Everyone from Bogota to Budapest played it and danced to it and had their own versions of it. For sure there was percussion. This combination is as good as any. Does anyone still know the dance? Is there video?
Divine ... Thank you ... Today I found out about the musical instrument the Theorbo ..... Seeking and searching out youtubes to learn more .. Thank you for placing this upon youtube... thank you for teaching me today..... brings me to tears, at the beauty ......
Je découvre depuis un an Kapsberger, et moins que les harmoniques et les mélodies, ce sont les rythmes qui m'interpellent le plus dans ses compositions Je veux dire, les rythmes pour son époque évidemment
He's using a more eastern technique (the really fast tapping is atypical of western music) Percussion was never written down with pieces like this, because it was supposed to be improvised upon by the percussionists per the needs of the other players and the percussionist's skill. It was improvised, but it's supposed to be, albeit in an atypical fashion in this instance.
For those wondering years later, the piece is written for solo theorobo. It's common to improvise additional parts to chaconnes, passacaglias, and canarios in the baroque period.
I don't think this pieces of guitar and lute (theorbo) had percussion parts... The manuscripts just contain the parts of the instruments. Also worth mentioning this is from the baroque period, particularly. Theorbo was one of the main players in the continuo during the baroque era. Greetings Noel! I hope you keep on enjoying this music.
@@iiirdeyeheretik Even more common considering the musical forms you mentioned are based upon a harmonic ground and introduce variations on the chord progression. Greetings!
I really like your playing of "Canarios" by Gaspar San/(z), but UA-cam says it was taken down. Could you upload it again, if it was not for legal reasons, or causing you too much trouble, please and thank you?!
Mis amigos de Argentina coincidirán que esta pieza musical es una innegable precursora del "malambo", género desarrollado en el Río de la Plata, que se baila zapateado y se ejecuta con guitarra y bombo.

Bass strings on the theorbo have such a superb tone!

What an unexpected and delightful mixture of harmony and lightness !... 😊
Loved the clarity of interplay between the two instruments. Very clean and pleasing!

Semplicemente meraviglioso. Un'interpretazione impeccabile ed eseguita con grande sensibilità.
Delicioso, te sumerge en un mundo de esplendedez y armonía, fluyen recuerdos inconmensurables de la niñez y de bienestar, exquisito. Gracias
There are no words to discribe the pleasure of listening to this piece.

I listen to it if I’m worried or having trouble sleeping. Instantly soothing.
Mabe greeks

transfere the ancestor
of this instrument in near east.
for me it's seems like cuban baroque music
you know this was selective, you sound foolish

Awesome! Thank God some people were given this kind of skill!

Today I found out about the musical instrument the Theorbo .....
Seeking and searching out youtubes
to learn more ..
Thank you for placing this upon youtube... thank you for teaching me today.....
brings me to tears, at the beauty ......
Pure bliss!
Formidabile interpretazione e splendido connubio tra due strumenti così storicamente differenti. Congratulazioni.
Beautiful and deeply meditative music and performance.
Superb! And beautifully photographed as well.
this fine performance socked it to me . the two players and their instruments blended beautifully. thx
Simple cadence ... magic.
That is ... wow! ... Beautiful!
Beautiful: the drum evokes in my imagination street dances at a 17th Century Canary Islands Fiesta: very atmospheric.
Dresden arch guitar my fave.
Great work. So melodic and carefully orchestrated and exucuted
Golly good show.
I love it !!!!
I want more
Nice Stephen Barber Theorbo.....sounds great! Bravo.
Beauty for ears and eyes!
Originally searching for this, I found Canarios by Gaspar Sanz and forgot about this one. I just happened to search Kapsberger and found it again!
Priceless mesmerising beauty!
Bravo. A respite from the modern world (although I guess UA-cam is the modern world).
GREAT!! Thoroughly enjoyed!
Maravilloso! Gracias por compartirlo.
Que bonito suena. Muy fino. Aplausos!
I'm diggin' it...Thanks for sharing.
Magnifico and wunderbar...
That's a wonderful Theorbo and beautifully played!! Thanks.
I can't stop playing this song on my guitar ...
Do you have a copy of the music for it??
@@j8432 Check my channel
La Tablatura brilliant. Thank you
We’ll make sure you don5 play it too fast. It is for dancing to.
O maior prazer obtido pela audição
Um trabalho muito bom desses músicos. Essa é uma deliciosa peça.
Different and beautiful
This is the true sense of the best that we can be as a civilization.
LOL.
There is nothing more sweet and simple than a canary.
Beautifully done!
Lovely in all respects, setting, beautifully played on beautiful instruments.
It sounds beautiful and takes a lot of rhythm
Thank you! Beautiful. Very much appreciated
Love this
Amazing version.
lovely, like a mantra
Such a masterpiece! Loved it!
fantastico!! registrazione poi incredibile!!
This piece contains just three chords on its ground, still is so amazing, the music of life...
Una delicia bravo!!! Gracias
loved it~
This is incredibly beautiful !
Full of beauty.
Fantástico, los felicito.
delightful and fresh.
This is amazing

Genious Interpretation.
Absolutamente maravilloso...
UA-cam suggestions delivers once more. Happy new year all. Way to start the year with some baroque music.
I don't know whether or not Diego's playing the tombak as written or improvising, but it sounds like I'm at a medieval poetry slam.
He's using a more eastern technique (the really fast tapping is atypical of western music)

@Noel Goetowski Don't confuse medieval style with early baroque. Medieval music sounded completely different.

Great videos !
Great thanks indeed !
Ever since skyrim I've always loved those tavern vibe
de lujo!!!!!!!!!
Really enjoy this! Theorbo has quite captured my interests, and your bass line is yummy!
amazing
❤❤❤❤❤
Bravo !!!
It feels like I'm in a busy J-RPG town.
Beautiful!
This.. is.. art..!
Viva la vieja escuela!
heavenly music
❤
Percussion is about accompaniment and rhythm and Spanish music should be played with passion, intensity and soul..
Che bellezza!
Bellissimo, grazie!
it sounds sometimes like djembe soli, speaking about the tombak(zarb) solo. Diego Lopez is a master!
wow...thanks.....
