Bach, una de las cimas...
I am from a very poor family in Brazil and the only contact with classical music was with one uncle loving Beethoven and only listen it. But in 1985 I came to live in Sweden and I discovered J.S.BACH and I found me in paradise. I can listen Bach from morning to night 365 days by year.And every time I listen one piece I discover new facets because his music is so complete. Some pieces set me in total transes. Wonderful.
Excellent music.....and excellent English Paulo. Well done.
Greetings from Australia. Les Griffiths
@@lesgriffiths8523 Thank you and my best wishes for you and your family.
@Paulo Sergio Gomes: I'm grateful to you for sharing those comments about your having moved from Brasil to Sweden, and about your new-found love of the works of Bach. Sixty-plus years ago, I had the good fortune to obtain an excellent recording of E. Power Biggs performing Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor at the 1958 Flentrop tracker organ in the Busch-Reisinger Museum at Harvard University. All best wishes and blessings. 🎶 jes
Yes, my opinion is that Bach is the greatest composer ever.
You must be a good Mathemtician. Try to read Gödel, Escher, Bach by Douglas R. Hofstadter 1979.
I'm pregnant and as soon as I played this music, my baby started moving and kicking a ton!! We love your music! Thank you for uploading!!
Sounds of my childhood hanging out with my grandfather in his study, he sat in his huge armchair while he read his Bible and I would sit at his feet and listen to his records. Every time I hear Bach I think of him, I miss him with all my heart.
And it would appear you will see your grandfather again if you follow in his footsteps, bow to the Lord, and trust in Christ. Praise the Lord for the peace of Bach's music in uncertain times. but the greatest peace is found in Jesus (John 20:19-21).

@@ewigerschuler3982 Or maybe "crack open" the Bible, a book that has guided and inspired mankind for ages throughout history; helped build prosperous societies and brilliant minds ;and accurately describes human nature and experience and the world rather than a delusional book read and followed by a cult created by a 19th century false prophet. Also, you can use reasoning and work off the comparisons/discoveries of others to find out that the Book of Mormon is a sham. Here's a genuine tip: stop following a cult and being an ideologue and instead start thinking for yourself. The Bible verse you are referring to talks about asking for wisdom, which is ironic in that anyone with a drop of wisdom will see Mormonism as another cult whose beliefs are completely detached from the teachings of the Bible. Romans 10:9 tells someone how they can be saved; guess what? Being a mormon isn't in there or anywhere else in the Bible. Don't quote or reference the Bible if you are only going to belief in whatever parts are convenient to you.
@@bvionis I thought this video was about music not religion? lol
@@gwoods9087 Bach hacía música sacra porque sus patrones o mecenas eran la nobleza y la iglesia, independientemente de sus propias creencias. A mí me importa el resultado artístico
300 years old today, 24 March 2021. Here's to another 300 years!
I use the new calender, which puts his birthday at March 31. Whichever it be, play some Bach!
No. Pure eternity.
Thank-you for reminding me!!!! Happy tri-Centennial Birthday to one of my all-time favorite persons!!! And don't worry...his music will never disappear as long as humans continue to inhabit this earth!!!

Thank you for this!
ty
Thank you so much!
The first one is Allegro.
up until I was 13 (am now 71) I loved the pop music of the day, then my father took me to hear Handel's Messiah and from that moment on it has only been classical and religious music. it was the only gift he gave me but it has proved to have been worth more than all the gold and silver in the world
For me, it was my Mum taking me to see Madame Butterfly at the Empire in Liverpool - also, when I was 13 (and I am 72 - well next (soon) birthday!). It was beyond gold and silver for what it brought me to. I came across Bach very late, but I believe that it was always going to happen, after becoming familiar with orchestral classical music by degrees. Thank you to my Mum. I've never written this before. Thank you Mum.
Damn I’m 15 listening to this
David Gunn - Thank you for sharing that. I just turned 68 yesterday. I was exposed to classical music when my grade school class went on a field trip to hear Leonard Bernstein. In junior high and high school I played in the band and orchestra, but we generally did not play classics, we played the musicals and current pop music, and band music for marching band. However, I did not get a proper education in composing, even though I had a passion for music. I was late getting into the "pop" music, but when I did around 1972, I was hijacked by that hard rock and metal, things that are now called "classic" rock. I left that behind many years ago and turned to ambient and electronic music, ( space music ). I came here today to listen to Bach, because I am also listening to an Audible Books title about the Great Composers. Mr. Gunn, I do hope you are doing well, and by the way, my name is also David.
I read an interview with a concert pianist, who in addition to loving classical composers such as Rachmaninoff, also appreciated the raw energy of heavy metal.
Good music doesn't have an expiration date!
@@b.mcb.6546 stop making fun here. This is classical music.
Bach war und ist der Beste.
Er ist ein
Jahrtausend/Jahrmillionen Talent
Noch in 1Millionen Jahren wird seine Musik gespielt/gehört(solange es die Menschheit gibt)
All of Bach’s music is the immortal lullaby of the soul
That was a way to make it sound even more alive his music. How poetic!

In memoriam in semn de respect si aducere aminte ca un pios omagiu adus aminte marelui si regretatului compozitor German johann Sebastian Bach. Astazi vineri 28 iulie 2023 se implinesc 273 de ani de comemorare de la moartea marelui artist. Data mortii:28 iulie 1750,Leipzig, germania. Mare pacat ca nu mai stim sa ne apreciem marii nostrii artisti minunati si super geniali de mare clasa cat mai sant inca in viata langa noi sa ii iubim pretuim si respectam valorile si care au plecat la cele vesnice si care ne-au parasit in aceasta viata langa noi sa ii iubim pretuim si respectam valorile si care au plecat la cele vesnice si care ne-au parasit in aceasta viata. Bunul dumnezeu sa va aiba in imparatia cerurilor in paza si protectie si sa va odihneasca in pace maestre acolo unde ati plecat la domnul printre stele eterne regrete si sincere condoleante familiei sale pentru ca nu se va mai putea naste niciodata un asemenea mare om genial si unic prin partiturile sale cu care a incantat milioane de fani din intreaga lume. Din partea unui admirator fan si spectator drag si fidel. Amin 🎉🎉🎉😢😢😢.
The Brandenburg Concertos were the forever poor JS Bach's applications for work to a musical minded Prince who couldn't read music, so he shrugged and forgot about them. The music required more musicians than he employed, and therefore he never knew greatness was in his presence. He filled the Concertos into a desk drawer. And there they sat buried for over 100 years, when the never played Brandenburg Concertos were discovered. Felix Mendelssohn championed a rediscovery of the music of JS Bach, forgetting about his own. There was so much of Bach's great music for people to hear. Greater than he. Thank you, Felix. Love your Midsummer Night's Dream.
John Stuerke. Thank you for your interesting and informative comment. Sad that the Brandenburg Concertos were not performed in Bach's own time. Not for the Prince who failed to recognise Bach's genius, but the consequence of that Prince's rejection was that Bach's contemporaries never had the chance to hear and enjoy this marvellous music. And what a great service Felix Mendelsson rendered to mankind by championing a rediscovery of Bach's music.
Note Mother Hildegarde in Outlander, when Jamie Fraser askes her to help decifer a code written in musical notes. She recognises music by Bach and comments that he will never be remembered. Season 2 when the Frasers are in Paris trying to stop the Jacobean rebellion
Mendelssohn kicked off the Bach renaissance in 1829 with his two performances in Leipzig and Berlin which reportedly caused tumultuous scenes. It was a revelation. Afterwards Mendelssohn, Schumann and Brahms regularly met to study and play Bach in private.
Mendelssohn's statue is opposite to that of Bach on Leipzig market square. He is still standing there keeping an eye on Bach. The world owes a lot to him!💖
Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to return to Bach's time and present the maestro with a recording of these works specifically this recording, especially knowing that he never had the opportunity to hear them performed ....clearly his workload and circumstances did not sadly permit this during his relatively long and prodigious life....entirely a flight of fancy of course as time travel is not possible...at least according to Herr Einstein and contemporary scientific wisdom .. .but I had a very precious birthday gift of these works on my 14 th birthday, a gift that has given me life long pleasure (I'm 62 now btw)... I wonder what he would make of them and the knowledge that some 400 yrs or so later they are so well loved and appreciated the world over ? 🙂
I don't need Prozac. Bach is the best antidepressants. You realize that some men on earth are able to create so beautifull things and it makes you feel so positive.
And their,,artifice,,Is, continually,,,in demand, ,;centuries, later!!!
he did it all for God, and got a lot of it from God, hed probably tell you the same if he were here now
IMPOSSIBLE TO NOT LOVE JSB. ALL HIS WORKS HAD SOMETHING SPECIAL TO 'DRAW YOU IN' & HOLD YOU. NEVER BORING OR REPETITIOUS TO PUTTING YOU TO SLEEP... HE'S THE KING...
El mejor de todos !!
Immer wenn ich Bach höre, fallen alle Sorgen und Bekümmernisse von mir ab und ich fühle mich leichter. Ich bin dann eins mit der Welt.
The Brandenburg Concertos are clearly some of the finest music ever composed by man. Bach's musical genius is astounding!
Sure
That's why I'm glad when they sent that space probe out into the Universe forever, I rejoiced that they included the music of Bach -- the noblest artistic boast of the entire human race. . . . Top that, any space aliens out there !
One of the greatest musical compositions in human history. I never get tired of hearing it.
I second that notion. Essential Js Sebastain for the mind and soul.
Join the club!

that first movement is my fav from this set
The first piece of classical music I was exposed to was Beethoven's symphony no. 6 that my mother would play almost daily . After noticing that I preferred classical music to any other, my father bought me a CD of a selection of Bach's music. The first piece on it was the Chaconne performed by orchestra conducted by Stokowski. I remember the experience as almost religious in its pathos, and being incredibly moved to the point of shedding tears. From then on, despite my love for Beethoven and, later, Mozart, it was Bach alone that wrote the music that described the harmony of the universe for me.
Sniff and the tears?
Bach is muy favorite composer,but there some composers whose mesage and style is unique,now im listening Gesualdo,in a sense the best in his feelings and personal mesage,is a extreme and powerful música of a troubled soul
Good for you! I enjoyed reading your story.
Thank you for sharing. Similar to you I was first exposed through Beethoven, except it was Symphony 5 in my dad's car when I was 5. My dad had an Electric Light Orchestra CD and one of the songs on it was a cover of "Roll Over Beethoven"(ironic I know) by Chuck Berry. On this version a string quartet performs a rendition of the iconic opening of the 1st movement...and then the electric guitar comes in(of course)! Those first 25 seconds just absolutely amazed me despite being so young. I would rewind to the beginning over and over! My dad was so fed up after 3 years that he finally got me a CD box set of Beethoven's Symphonies! It really was destined to be! Therefore I am forever indebted to Beethoven and his Symphony 6 is my absolute favorite piece, but I have become increasingly fond of Bach's music over the years. I wish you well.
@@alancameron8897 lol sniff n tears
One of the great masterpieces of music in human history. And another reason to love this recording is that you don't have a million and one advertisements or UA-cam pausing the music every 10 minutes.
...one?
The problem is found this
The commercials are a problem
so yes two times thankful..... 🙏

Johann Sebastian Bach : the greatest musician/ composer that has ever lived.
Wenn man bedenkt wie viele Menschen diese Musik zurzeit von Meister J. S. Bach hören durften und heutzutage jedermann, jederzeit diese genießen kann, ich empfinde tiefe Dankbarkeit 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I listened to these as a little kid, and I’m now studying classical music. But I don’t normally gravitate towards Bach. I was on the border of having a horrible anxiety attack when I had the sudden urge to listen to this. In a moment of absolute panic, this calmed me down.
I never realized how much I could miss a piece of music until that moment. There’s something so majestic and beautiful about it.
Bach means "brook". It's flow of life, good for the soul.
*There’s an uncanny sense of both beauty and profundity to Bach’s music, especially when played so well as in this recorded performance!*
Queste sono opere sacre che i grandi musicisti e poeti del passato ci anno lasciato a noi di oggi apprezziamoli e soprattutto apprezziamo le loro opere incantevoli ❤😂
It's done! We are there together!...
大好きです😉👍🎶特に３番と5番はなんとも言えなくらい‼️😉👍🎶ありがとうございました😆💕✨

Anytime I need grounding, this is my go-to music. I've used it for this all my life. (Mom loved and played classical music all the time.) And the good news is, it always delivers the grounding. In an uncertain world, it's refreshing to have something you can count on in a pinch.
You're so right! That's what is so special to Bach. Mozart and particularly Beethoven might excel at music that expresses the soaring highs and crushing lows of the human condition, music that moves like none other but might lack grounding.
In Bach, however, you can sense that he was very religious and that the continuity and stability his faith presumably provided him with has thoroughly transpired into his music. His music in turn is providing the listener with these balancing qualities.
In being hardly ever overwhelmingly passionate it takes away those highs and lows that one might get from hearing other composers. And in doing so it makes us feel safe and overall just happy without making us ecstatic. A great cure for our stressed out human souls. ❤🩹
I discovered Bach (and classical in general) during my 2nd year in university. The campus book store had some classical tapes at 50% off. I had just bought a new boom box portable stereo and on impulse I bought some tapes. Bach is my favourite composer and Brandenburg is my #1 music. On my bucket list is to learn to play an instrument, a woodwind, specifically the recorder, and learn to play some of these Bach masterpieces.
"Al, he's the father of music". It was SO long ago that someone said that to me. You know what ? That person was right !!! Not only did this man WRITE beautiful music, he invented how we write music !!!
Beauty of Soul;
All encompassing Light
Cherished, forever whole
Heaven's Delight!
A humble acrostic for the eternally beautiful B.A.C.H.
I first came by Bach as a 14 year old when I purchased a cassette from Walmart called "Bach's Greatest Hits." Later, when I started driving the music would be blaring from my car! While others were blaring OZZY or Quiet Riot I was rocking out Bach.
El primero y mejor rockero de todos
You certainly saved your soul.👍
バッハの偉大さが心に克明に刻まれます。このクオリティの高さに脱帽😂です。ありがとうございました。🎉❤♪。
Welcome brother!...
This is quite possibly the most amazing recording you will ever hear. These are all authentic 'period instruments' expertly performed by the world's most skilled, delicate, and courageous musician-technicians, playing the most demanding, divine compositions as if they were as easy as riding a bicycle, mic'ed, mixed and mastered by studio engineers of the highest artistic integrity.
I have to agree! The tempos are great, the delivery, passion, melody highlights; it's all wonderful!!!!!!!!
i wondered if they were period instruments. thanks for clarifying! :)
I agree completely. Have bought so many others looking for this one recording. It was the first I had ever heard. You never forget your first.
Couldn’t agree more. Tempo is ‘spot on’. Wonderful music.
One of the best comments I've ever encountered on youtube. Thank you kindly Sir for such finesse. Chapeau bas!
300 years and still in the Top Ten.
Amikor ezt a zenét hallgatom, boldogság önt el. Ezért érdemes élni, hogy ilyen gyönyörű zenét élvezhessünk. Ez teszi az életet teljessé. Hálával gondolok Bachra.
Bach in the day, this was all we listened to.
nice
COVID lockdown = boredom and ennui. Bach = mood improvement.
This Bach at his best. The music just flows and you feel the musical lines.
Thank you for the wonderful sounds. I hope everyone reading this gets a good night's sleep tonight! ❤
I had heard this concerto in early 1960's when my mother was alive and my three brothers and a sister could tuck in their bed every night with unblemished pure dream. After fifty some years passed , this beautiful music brings me back to then and letting me enshrine old memories once again in a new ditch.
This music is immortal and keeps your memories and beloved ones immortal, too!
We are blessed to witness such beauty like Bach´s music.
Can you imagine the "coincidence"? A vast universe... at some point to be born... and stumble upon this music.
So Sorry for your Loss!!!!! :( D:
I was 6 years old when I first heard the Brandenburg Concertos on my Dad's 78 rpm records. I have been a fan ever since. Bach was an incredible composer.
Every child should be given the chance to hear to music of quality...
When I was four years old, I put my Dad's records on... it was... Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, many others... and Bossanova!
15 years later, I again fell in love with Bossa. :)
My 6 year old listens to wheels on the bus. Your story is shit
35 years ago i listened to this as i studied for my uni exams while drinking coffee and no sleep. Thanks JSB.
With your pick up?
@@mhuten what?
@@mhuten yes!
Right now, I am doing the same exact thing, except finishing my philosophy capstone paper. Isn't Bach great? Like seriously, I wouldn't be able to get this paper done without some soul elevating Baroque-and that at it's best, being Bach, of course!
Currently listening to this as I'm studying for uni exams (no coffee, however) ^^
une pure merveille ! Monsieur BACH est vraiment le compositeur du millenaire
E' una musica barocca bellissima. Bach è forse il più grande compositore di tutti i tempi e anche uno dei pochi che non stancano mai di essere ascoltati.
Il più grande compositore di tutti i tempi. Quando si analizzano le opere di Bach, si comprende che c’è qualcosa di sovrumano, di incomparabile con altri “geni” della musica. Le testimonianze di tanti compositori su Bach, confermano la sua unica e straordinaria grandezza.

The most complete musician ever I think. Instrumental music, cantatas- sacred and profane- solo instrumental works, concerti, and three of the most towering artistic achievement of western culture- St John Passion, St Mathew Passion, B minor mass. I do not follow any religion but these works speak beyond man made institutions.

Perhaps I'm necroposting, but I'm wondering exactly what you mean by "Profane." Because, to my knowledge, Bach didn't write anything profane. Do you mean secular?
Note;Johann,,only ,for, employment,requirements,, , , ,He wasn't , , very religious,,,personally!!!!

Thank you so much for posting these concertos, if I were to pass away tonight I would die a happy man for having listened to this beautiful recording of Bach's Brandenburg Concertos.. Peace and Blessings-
Still (and always) timeless and exquisite. Heavenly clockwork.
Music is time and time is music.
Heavenly clockwork orange
Still coming here almost daily... :)
That Adagio in the 6th Concerto... Good Lord, can anything be more perfect?
Bach is the only human that mastered reaching the perfect universal formula in music, which you only see in nature itself.
No wonder so many people describe his music as a mirror of natural processes, of the universe, they hear God / divinity in it, etc.
I remember that movie "The day the earth stood still", starring Keanu Reeves, in which an alien super being came here to destroy humanity in order to save earth.
And by coincidence he hears the first part of the Goldberg variations... which awakens the first doubts in his originally destructive plans.
The guy who wrote the movie script - at some point in his life - obviously tasted from the immortal wisdom in Bach´s music.
What a privilege to live in times & countries where we can listen to this incredible music.
Bewundrswürdige, Freudenreiche und Super Fantastische Klänge !!! Tepper Michael.
I also meant to thank the uploader for making these incredible recordings available for us all to enjoy...thank you bachlokillo ! 😉👍🙏

Merci infiniment de nous avoir fait découvrir cet orchestre et son interprétation particulièrement lumineuse des Brandebourgeois de Bach.
The earth was sad and empty. And God said, Let there be beauty on earth. And then God created Bach. And God heard that everything was wonderful ... And how wonderful! Greetings from Juiz de Fora city, Minas Gerais, Brazil!
Wrong, the earth was happy and empty, then Satan created religions like Islam and Christianity. The earth turned into a battlefield and place of destruction and hate.
The people who believe religion is "only bad" as as ignorant as people who believe religion "solves everything". Nature is brutal, callous, uncaring, and merciless. Bach's works are simple proof that faith can be beautiful and inspiring.
Elias wow jeez
lol
Pois é. A mais pura beleza.
Bach’s music quenches the dryness of the soul, and is an exilir to purify the soul

I went to my family doctor for a regular checkup.
Bach the greatest musical genius all time! thank you 4 sharing such divine music.
If Bach had written just the 6 Brandenburg concertos and nothing else hed still be considered one of the great composers
But bach is considered one of the greatest composers what are you on about?
@@hadrian.2796 he means those 6 concertos alone would be enough to earn him this title. ranking composers still feels a bit weird, like comparing oranges and apples
@@alliotteraphael1073 but the way he words it as "hed still be considered one of the great composers" just means he isn't considered a great composer now when he clearly is.
@@hadrian.2796 No it does not mean that at all. You are overlooking the key word "still".
And these would be considered Bach's 'popular music'. He was a deeply religious man; his cantatas, masses and oratorios attest to that.
Щиро вдячна за прекрасне виконання музики незрівнянного Баха.
One day back around just past the mid 1980's I walked into a public library, saw a section of CD's and music booths to play them in. I decided to randomly pick a classical disk to see what it sounded like since I had not experienced the newest technology yet and wanted to add to my vast musical tastes of listening in rock, rap, new wave, folk, jazz and other. On went the headphones and I was blown away by the sound and clarity. I was extra blown away by this set of music the Brandenburg Concertos. What are the odds of picking this set out of the dozens and dozens of disks they had at the time? Just the odds of seeing this section of music in a back corner of the library which by the way is a pretty big library, I'd say it was meant to be. I had not gone there particularly to listen to music, but it hooked me further into classical music and I see this particular set as somewhat way ahead of it's time. Another moment, period of someone who pushed the boundaries in another artistic genre that furthered the human condition just a little more just hundreds of years ago. This is what art is, this is what it does and I am grateful to have come across it some 35 years ago that day in the library.
This is just how I (personally) like to hear Bach. Elegant simplicity, light but clear and the parts really talk to each other. So glad that I found this. Thanks Brian for posting - I fav'd it!……Hᴜɢʜ….ツ
HughFromAlice Yes, agreed, nothing extra is added in this performance -- just appreciation for the dialogue in the music. For this category of Bach's music, the non-intrusive nature is part of the profundity (if I may). I believe this was intended either as background music for court gatherings, or possibly for "light" listening. Let's just say, the BEST of light listening.
+PlanetThoughts 1 of 2: This dialogue, between you and HughFromAlice, has me asking myself if this confirms what I was already suspicious about; there's always been this inherent stuffiness that seems to be present in any music made during such colonial times, as if the artists within the composers from that period were all confined; confined from expressing something beyond a passing muse that merely complimented the oppressive royal structures already in place back then. If that's the case, it's a shame, really. There is SO much craft involved in this music, to the extent that it deserves to be delivered under only the most integral of artistic intentions. (Not as mere "background music".)
+PlanetThoughts 2 of 2: That's why I like some early-'70s prog; while it adopted the rebelliousness inherent to "rock & roll", it reflected musicians' interest in taking the next step, and properly utilizing such fine crafts. Even if they weren't always up to par with Bach per se, they at least had the right idea. Then the corporates took over, and we were back to separating artistic integrity (punk rock, new wave, etc.) from well-crafted music (orchestral, jazz, etc.)
Isn't this just perfection?
Amazing to think Bach never heard these in his lifetime, but like them he is immortal.
I'd argue that he indeed heard them, although never having had heard them performed.
Coś pięknego !
Mój ukochany kompozytor !
Jego muzyka to dar dla ludzkości od Samego Boga ….!❤️
Euphoric but tranquil, Bach is my wings in height and my nest for when I land.
the harmony is incredible. Got how many instruments playing different melodies at the same time. Intertwine and change with ease to make one magnificent whole. The person below who wrote took the words right out of my mouth---how to coordinate all these different instruments together and keep the harmony is indescribable---absolutely mind blowing----never hear a mistaken note!!
This is magic, just magic
Now this, this, is my cup of tea. ☕️🤏😌
Phenomenal interpretation of Bach. Magnificent!
I work and write to Telemann, Bach, Mozart and Handel. But if there is any music more mentally inspirational and stimulating than the Brandenburg Concertos, I've yet to find or hear it. Bravo, Maestro Bach!

@@lyricriott7582 you’re joking.
@@Vingul I’m just giving suggestions. Geez
@@lyricriott7582 you seemed to imply that those suggestions are «more mentally inspirational and stimulating», which I couldn’t take seriously ;-) guess I misunderstood your intent then. I like all the albums you listed by the way, except for Lateralus (just never got into Tool) and Trout Mask Replica (I remember buying it in 2008. Still don’t like it, but «Safe As Milk» is a good record of his). But no group or artist comes well out of it by compare with Bach, imo.
@@Vingul I mean caretaker is pretty close. Caretaker literally created an album that perfectly encapsulates what it’s like to have dementia
Utter spell binding genius with a great expression by this orchestra.
Od 4:04 można płakać nad życiem, losem. Tak tkliwa nuta, że za każdym razem serce mięknie. Cudo.
It is true the classical music is a heavenly music....That is why it is marvellous and amazingly Beautiful.
I think that the Brandenburg Concertos are the epitome of the Baroque style. They're elegant, yet logical, enjoyable, yet intellectual. I personally wouldn't describe them as "concertos", because as we know the form today, they don't particularly fit it. Despite having some soloists (notice how I used the plural), it can't be compared to that of, say, Mozart's piano concertos, or Vivaldi's violin concertos. I've listened to these works in full about 79 times now, and I thoroughly enjoyed every one of them. Considering that they lay gathering dust in an archive for over 100 years, their popularity has spiked incredibly. My favourites (plural again) would have to be nos. 3 and 5. The former is very interesting, not just because of its instantly recognisable opening movement, but because of the second one. It's extremely short, and is more of a cadenza than an individual movement, and it's quite fun to listen to different people's takes on it. In some recordings (usually the historically informed ones), they embellish it, adding (sometimes excessive) ornamentation, whereas earlier modern recordings play it how it was written: a series of changing chords and harmonies. The latter I just love because of the inclusion of the flute, by far one of my favourite instruments. The flute wasn't a very popular instrument in Germany during the 17th and 18th centuries, so Bach didn't use it very often, but when he did, he did it magnificently. The flute was primarily an Italian instrument, often used by, among others, Antonio Vivaldi. George Frideric Handel wrote a set of sonatas for flute (or recorder, this has been widely disputed) and basso continuo. As I just mentioned, the scoring of flute or recorder in these sonatas has been disputed for...a while. In the 18th century, a term was used - "flautino" - to represent the recorder in scores. But musicologists have stated that they've discovered that the piccolo - essentially a smaller, higher-pitched flute - would fit more into the name of "flautino". Anyway, we went from Bach to Vivaldi, to Handel, to recorders, and I'm just now realising how long this comment is.....
I finally understand why the Baroque composers loved the harpsichord and strings, they are the perfect mediums to express polyrhythm and syncopation. Bach is truly the essence of musical theory in application, and the Brandenburg Concertos are his Magnum Opi.
Why?
***** Care to elaborate?
The plural of Magnum Opus is Magna Opera.
Polyrhythm and syncopation: nowadays also possible with drums (and a good drummer).
Now, Bach is a towering genius, whether I like the harpsichord or not. (I’m actually very glad they invented the pianoforte.)
Well, it was either that or the organ. The piano did not come along until the industrial revolution was underway in the late 1700s. Totally different method of sound production: the piano hammer strikes strings- 1 to 3 per key- and the harpsichord plucks a string.
In 1990 I had purchased a CD set on Brandenburg concertos. I like the concertos very much and naturallly Bach became my favorite composer (along, equally, with other two - Mozart and Beethoven). I like the the current rendition but it is slightly different from the recording in my CD, which was slightly slow and hence more beautiful . I am not an expert in music to distinguish between the two. Does distinction matter when both relate to my favoured maestro?Yes, he is still enjoying my favour as my favorite composer. Gracias great maestro!
I've heard this orchestra live in my hometown!
Lucky dude !
Let's put them into context and we can be more amazed than ever! Pull any other composition created prior to 1720 and nothing comes even close in grandeur and skill, these are monuments of art! His concertos may have been received both with praise and resistance from some circles. The violin solos on #4 have no precedent, and #5 may be considered the first true keyboard concerto. I am so glad these 6 jewels survived oblivion!
Bach! Grande! Fabuloso! Majestoso! Singular! Transcendente!
Bach Grande¡¡
Concordo integralmente. Absolutamente magnífico!
40 years ago we played the 3rd one with only 1 viola and 1 cello...the others didn't make it to the concert due traffic accident....I played the viola and had all three parts in front of me with a road map where to jump from one part to another. The cembalist told the audience we found a manuscript from Wieblingen library (which doesn't exist at all) where were only 1 viola and 1 cello, and we now play the world premier of it. Next morning it was in the local newspaper...
50 years ago, Bach's Brandenburg Concertos killed me. Still do.
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
270 years after his rise to Glory!!!
Thank you for this wonderful music! 💕❤️
