Mike Oldfield - Vivaldi Concerto in C
Вставка

- Fantastic Oldfield's arrangement of Vivaldi's Concerto in C major RV 558 / Allegro molto (originally for two recorders, two violins 'in tromba marina", two mandolins, two theorbos, two salmoè and violoncello, strings and basso continuo).
Vivaldi's original version : • Vivaldi : Concerto per...
In the same kind, watch and listen to Oldfield's arrangement of Rossini's William Tell Overture : • Video
Mike proving, yet again, that he can straddle the gap between classical and pop music without effort.
I was always surprised he was never a member of, or collaborated with, the group SKY, who were famous for doing the same thing. He did briefly, at one stage, cross professional paths with Enya's manager (Rob Dickins), and again the collaboration would have been a natural one (that never happened).
GENIO EXTRAORDINARIO Mr Oldfield👍.... Vivaldi / Oldfield = fusión y pureza
Clever fellow that Mike Oldfield, thanks for posting that.
This is different and pleasant to listen to...great performance
He sure picked one of Vivaldi's best. Excellent performance.
Superb !
brilliant.... thanks for posting
1976 was the year, but there is all of Mike there, particularly from 09" to 13" and from 01'07" to 01.50". Nice!!
Genio absoluto
Great fun!!
Amazing!
Splendido !👍👍👍👍
❤❤❤
El virtuosismo de Mike se adapta bien a las obras de los grandes de la música clásica!!!! bravo MAESTRO.
I wish this had been included on either the Ommadawn or Incantations remasters :(
Mark James it was on the Elements box set that was released in 1994.
What a genius!
Antonio or Mike?
What a pair of geniuses
This did not appear on the recent Deluxe editions! I wonder when some bright spark at Universal will finally issue all Mike's non album material in one box set or whatever. It's really annoying to get 99% of the schtick and not the full schtick!
Got no download portal like Napster, Deezer or else? At least, you got UA-cam! Greets from G
It is on his Elements box set and a Christmas EP with In Dulci Jublio released as a CD single.
sound similar to end parts of Ommadawn and TB2. Mike's happy moments
Vivaldi being massacred in the nicest way possible by a master!
Vivaldi has not been massacred- he has been reinvented by one of the biggest geniuses of all time. Greetings
@@ingokupler8687 it has been massacred; it is enough to compare with the classical orchestra version
Perfect comment.
Para Mike todo es facil.....digno talento para tocar temas de los grandes genios de la historia de la musica universal. Especialmente de Italia y Alemania.

I got it in the 4 CD box set "Elements".
I have this too, and on an extended play CD single.
OHH WOW! This is such a VERY lovely song, and very moving too, Well done to Sally Oldfield ❤.
La virtuosité de Mike s'adapte bien aux oeuvres des grands du classique.
Sounds like a Dutch streetorgan.
Para mi el mejor musico de la historia
Mike Oldfield doesn't believe in dynamics, lol.
Poor Vivaldi being massacred.
Very sadly so. Your right!
I really like it. I think it captures the infectious joy of the piece.
Did you mean "close" ? Did you try to randomly run into this right after listening to good interpretations of the original versions like Fabio Biondi's or Trevor Pinnock's (or both, as probably happened 2 years ago) ?
I usually like Mike Oldfield's music, and I certainly not against adaptations of classical pieces into other genres (either fully adapted or parts mixed into a new composition ... Therion or Era have full albums of this that I could listen for hours, could also talk about a million separate pieces like Beethoven virus or, speaking about Vivaldi, countless works that include parts of the 4 Seasons). You thought you were talking to some classical music connoisseur/fundamentalist ? Nope.
But this here offers nothing, its notes are plain copied (hence not hard to "capture the infectious joy") into something that simply sounds far inferior to the original. It is too close to the original to offer a listening experience on its own yet too far to sound quite as good. If you want classical music successfully adapted into a similar style, listen to synth versions of Beethoven works that were written for the movie Clockwork Orange. Those don't simply copy all original instruments into new sounds, they are the result of a better adaptation work and bear their own musical atmosphere, making them interesting or enjoyable to listen on their own instead of defaulting to the original.
Obviously you are a classical music expert, can you do better?
Pity your English is not quite as good as your musical expertise.
Should read "you are right" or "you're right".
If you don't like it, don't listen.
Classical music expert ? Not at all. I don't see what makes you think I'm one or pretend I'm one in what I wrote. Can I do better ? Certainly not. But this is a very bad argument anyway. Fortunately no one needs to do better than something to criticize it, contrarily to some spreading popular belief (seriously I'm tired of this "oh lolololl do better or don't talk" argument). Sorry, english is not my main language. So since you don't appreciate that I try my best to use your language, maybe we should use mine and see how it goes ? Anyway, any grammar mistake I may have done has nothing to do with my arguments. But why do I bother talking about "arguments" to someone who can't use anything but ad-hominem and strawman (both being fallacy arguments) ?
