Hieronymus Bosch Butt Music

- Опубліковано 8 вер 2024
- Music printed on the butt of one of the tortured souls in the 15th Century Hieronymus Bosch painting "The Garden of Earthly Delights" , Played on (What else?) Lute, Harp, and Hurdy-Gurdy by James Spalink. The melody is based on the transcription by Amelia Hamrick. The intro and outro employ the "Devil's Interval", and the last couple of measures are conjecture on my part. You could say that I just "pulled them out of my"-well, you know.....
Anyone here 600 years later and still listening to this?
Hear ye hear ye
Good Evening-Count Dracula #IWasThere
I hope no
Yes, and no it doesn't get old.
LOL
Bosch: "Guess you guys aren't ready for that yet . . . but your great great great great great great great great great great great grand kids are gonna love it."
Great!
Awwwww!!!!

Only 15th-Century kids will remember this.
whos listening through an acoustic coupler hooked up to trumpet winsock
@@jackmerlotdoesntliveherean9652 I'm listening to a travelling minstrel playing it.
I dont think 15th century kids understand his painting.
The Queen of England ...
The painting created at 16th century......
It's like he secretly added a soundtrack to his painting.
It's actually perfect ambient music for the picture
I'm shook 😱
I'm loving this idea.
That's a really cool observation!
Yes’s genius !;
"Verily, relinquish to me thine aux cable"
"Thou better not playeth rubbish!"
Given that it's a secret song in a medieval painting, I'm convinced the correct instruments playing this song in the right place at midnight in Istanbul will unlock a secret alcove that conveying the secrets of reality that drove Bosch mad.
Istanbul was once Constantinople - even old New York was once New Amsterdam
@@maddymud why they changed it I can say, the english just liked it better that way
There's no way to heart this response!
Why they changed it I really can't say
Assassin Creed 1
This tune, being a short folk music tune, is properly an "Air". I propose that it be named after the Old Irish word for "grove" or "garden" -- giving it the title "Derry Air".
I see what you did there ^^
Love it
Pouahahahaha!
Londonderry Air*
Check out Soften the glare, they have a song called Dairy Air.
This feels like the interlude in a nine-minute Eighties metal anthem
Nigel Eaton on lute maybe
Or a Credence Clearwater Revival song, Born on the Bayou. Go listen to the opening of that song. It'll trip you out
A music scholar listened to this and told me it's got a lot of heavy metal elements in it ❤
Put side distortion and you got sabbath
Sounds like the intro of an epic Nightwish song
Sounds way better than the butt music I usually hear.
Ikr
This is the exact harmony of my farts.
That’s true!
not me...mine sounds better than that everyday
My generation so perverted I thought you was talking about clapping cheeks before I thought about farting
I feel odd about really liking this song. It's beautiful, haunting, and....printed on some guy's butt.
David Parish-Whittaker beautifully beautifully haunting... indeed
David Parish-Whittaker a 600 year olds old butt
I actually find it very relaxing. Then again, I usually listen to dark electronic music so I have a vastly different perception of haunted.
Lol...
*IN HELLLLLLL*
...where some demonic thingie is about to bite it off
This is definetley a "When you want to be a musician but your Incubus father wants you to be a torturer" moment.
lmaoo
Why not both?
Yo, imagine Bosch being like. "The future people will like this one."
Well he did leave it for more studious or attentive minds to consider...
This is beaut. He knew
"You're not ready for this yet. But your kids will love it"
He also proved the you _can_ put flowers in a butt and call it a vase if you really want to.
He knew that people of all ages have the same nature. The one of sin.
this is fucking sick sounds like it’s going to drop into a black metal riff
Go on then :-)
My thoughts exactly!
I listen to a lot of Black Metal and Medieval/Classical Christian music, and (ironically) find them really similar.
Yes, it really sounds like that...🤘
you mean: athmospheric death metal?
Not gonna lie, this sounds like the music to a 90s computer rpg. Like it would fit in with any of them. Eye of the beholder, ultima online, and others ive forgotten.
Yesss it sounds like the menu music from Ultima 6 :D
Ultima for sure
suikoden remastered
...what did you think they based those on? LMAO
@@RHCole the creator of the music was obviously a fan of the ultima series
Sooo what kind of music do you like?
Me: it’s complicated
Music that's written on someone's butt
Me. ... In hell. In a famous painting. What about YOU?
Girl: I just remembered, I have to go.

Inspiring.
What a beautiful and haunting piece. So glad he took the time to put it in his painting, Ms. Hamrick took the time to transcribe it and Mr. Spalink made such a gorgeous recording of it. Yay art! Yay Music!
Couldn't agree more! It's truly such an accomodating piece, it drags me along so vividly every time I listen to it.
Everyone else is having a moral panic over Lil Nas twerking on Satan while we're here just casually listening to butt music from Hell.
Great comment.
We are much cooler ... Eh hotter
Lol
facts
Nas himself has a rap song "I Can" based on Beethoven's Fur Elise!
This is the most bootyful music I've ever heard.
I pictured a black and white video, with numerous bikini ladened woman shaking their bootys aggressively to this
I like how I just found this & I scroll through comments and find you here!
Great tastes listen alike 😂
@@IsaacxCasanova Fancy meeting you here! LOL Smol world!
Ashley Alyse I know right! Small world for sure! We just both have good taste.

@@JC-il7it They would be men aggressively moving their ass. Since the sheet music is written on a man's butt.
And. Here I am crying for a time I didn't know. Is it possible to have historical sadness and future dread simultaneously? ,😭
This sounds like the start of a metal song.
I agree. I could see Metallica using this as an intro to something which kicks up a storm.
@@crabbyoldman8209 or, you know, a proper folk band not alcoholica.
Apocalypse orchestra has a song of the same name with similar vibes
Not a coincidence at all. A lot of good metal takes inspiration from the past.
I'd love to hear this used as the basis for a folk metal song
"What u listening to?"
"Oh, nothing special, just some hellosh butt music from a painting"
I like the word hellosh!
Luiz Henrique Rolim Antonio Literally going to be me now!
I just listened to this on a speaker outside mixed with the sounds of singing birds and such and it blended so beautifully.
Yeah the birds dig it, they only started singing when I played it
Wow!
I just realized that this is played with the same instruments that appear in the third panel of this masterpiece of artwork.
What instruments are these?
@@lavenderooms3111, harp, a Hurdy-gurdy, the bagpipes, and a flute.
Should be played on a sackbut.
@@MatthewChenault I picked out the harp and bagpipes. I now hear the flute. But now I need to find out what a hurdy gurdy is.
@@lavenderooms3111 and your world will never be the same once you do
It took pandemic of 2020 for me to finally discover this. Almost worth it
vimeo.com/411569327. So many lessons learned. This is a short film that I made about the road to the pandemic
Pre-pandemic: getting ready for a cross-country tour with my band. Post-pandemic: learning music off a guy's butt on my bagpipes.

Dudeeee, the music is so Elder Scrolls
Lol, classic
hahahahaha nice!
Standing ovation
Now you must rest and meditate on what you learned
Man, Tool really was working on this album forever.
Maybe H. Bosch was MJK's great great great grandfather
That would explain quite a lot really
I literally just thought how Tool-ish this sounded
LOL!!

Best comment in the house: "all that music was on one butt!?"
yeah that's some serious butt man
" I like big butts and I cannot lie"
okay, but a nice little thing I've noticed is that the very first chord that's being played is constructed of an E and a B sounds. It creates the Devil's Tritone, which was banned from compositions in Medieval times for sounding too sinister and evil.
I just love the symbolism and crazy attention to detail in Bosch's paintings.
Is there a word for being obsessed with a piece of art? I think I have it.
Was wondering about that Devil's tritone. Thanks for making it easy for me.
E and B flat, if E is the root note.
Yeah it sounds creepy at the start
@@joeking6972 Yes, I have a cat called Bosco, as we call Bosch in Spanish.
The idea to include the lute, harp, and hurdy-gurdy in the painting to suggest the instrumentation is a special bit of time travel
They're all contemporary to each other. No time travel required.
I'm disappointed, though, that the instrumentation doesn't include a sackbut.
@@peghausman2584 This rendition is missing the butt clap sounds that made this piece hot.
I was kind of expecting a joke song, but I listened to it all the way through and it’s honestly a beautiful piece of music. Thanks for putting in the work so that we can enjoy it. ❤️
This is the kind of content that I'm on the internet for.
I'm friends with the girl who initially transcribed this, and I brings a tear to my eye to see that a 2 am sleep deprived joke will NEVER DIE.
I would like to communicate my skepticism in the most polite way possible
@@RatherBeEmbed You are welcome to, friend. 😊
@@kylerjohnson2638 your nonchalant and pleasant demeanor in the face of skepticism has removed my doubt completely. I wish a happy evening to you and your transcriber friend 🤣
I know that girl too!
Me too
This song sounds like forbidden love, longing, embracing, ferocious/feisty/high octane/aggressively compassionate... it also feels innocent though. I like it
"I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it."
😅
Go, Johnny go!
"Butt"
Truly the ultimate hellish punishment for a musician.
"You will have truly incredible haunting melodies painted on your skin,
But it will be written on your butt. So you'll never be able to read or play it! MWAHAHAHA!"
Mirrors were rare back then.
Just get someone to sing it a few times, and you would be able to play it by rear :P
@@odaxbi The second worst hellish punishment for a musician is to have some guy following you around begging you to play music that is printed on his butt.
You would need to work with someone else in order to play it. Kind of like the allegory of the long spoons in heaven and hell, where those in hell can't feed themselves since the spoons are too long, while those in heaven just feed each other.
Or having to play it reading it off a guy's butt and he happens to be very gassy
I would like 1 hour version of this masterpiece.
Here you go - an hour of butt music. Enjoy :)

You would need more butts.
It’s almost as if the composer just pulled that melody right out of his ass
🤣
Ah, boo. Butt if you didn't say it, someone else would.
This is gold. Pure gold. 10/10 pun.
Congrats, you made the same joke the OP made in the video description
Clever af
Today this music seems quite calm and relaxing, but back then it was something you could really shake your ass to
Legitimately one of the greatest songs I've ever heard in my life.
whenever i need to unwind i pour a glass of red wine and listen to 15th century butt music from Hell.
Hysterical 🤣
Хм... А я наливаю стаканчик виски и слушаю Мэрлина Мэнсона...

LMFAO
You win the comments section for that!
That's literally what they said in the description when it was posted in 2014.
@@KathrynHatfield I didn't know that; I only discovered this video days ago (and hadn't read the description until you mentioned it). Sorry
@@KathrynHatfield that's only partly what they said in the description and i made the joke better
I don't know if Bosch had any musical composition experience, but if he didn't, imagine the conversation he had to have to get the sheet music to put into the painting.
It could be one of his apprentices that did that. Painting was very much a collaborative back then.
This song is so timeless. It makes me think about our civilization as a whole and what we've accomplished on this world.
You mean how we're all still killing each other in the names of the assorted Gods we (as a race) serve?
You're an idiot.
Here, it would rather be 'our civilization as a hole'...
As a hole*
How many lines are on sheet music??? Did you actually zoom in? Beautiful music but it’s a gag…
600 year old butt music from hell... wow
@deadbutdreaming That's a bit of a reach and a reductive oversimplification at the same time.
@deadbutdreaming 14 years of study, and this is the calibre of response you provide? Either you are a liar, aren't trying hard enough, or are simply too insecure to handle critique with anything pertaining to intellectual integrity. So if you are anything approaching an academic, take a deep breath, and try again.
@deadbutdreaming I see I was right in my judgement of you, fraud. My original criticism not only stands, but has now been reinforced by your failed attempts at retort.
no fucking arguing under my comment without good faith, if yall dont just take what everyone says that has been researched as a possibility and look it up your hekkin self like an intelectual, then dont debate here, dang ol got dang it bobby i tell you 'hwat
just calling eachother pricks over a painting some dude made 600 years ago about a butt is nonsense, lets just agree that you are all dunkleosteus, and so am i
Oh wow, this is absolutely beautiful! This is the music on that gentleman's ass? My god I can't believe it! XD Thank you so so much for making this! I love hearing people play old instruments and music like this, it gives me chills every time. I actually have a large print of this painting hanging right above my bed; the moment I saw it in my first art history class I fell in love with it. I feel like it encompasses all it means to be a human being. Chaos and beauty colliding in a sensual, violent, confusing mess. Weird and wonderful. Holy and depraved. Your music here truly spoke to me and is so perfectly fitting to this painting. Thank you again for this.
If these are the beats in hell I'm pretty psyched
As the Demon Crowley said in "Good Omens," Hell has all the best composers; Heaven has Elgar.
Right? This is so in my wheelhouse.
😂😂😂💯
In all honesty, if hell is even real, I think the music you are inclined to hear is more akin to "Zorkus Borkus ", or "Mister Robotron ".

LMAO
My father had this painting on our lounge room wall above the fireplace. I miss him especially when I see it. He would've loved to hear this.
I don't know what you believe, but I hope he somehow can hear it via you. I hope you feel his presence in every note.
Incredible. This absolutely could be a song playing in the background, while society is crumbling, being scary but feeling absolute peace because you know it’s finally all going to stop and be over.
Absolutely beautifully chilling.
The sad thing is that society IS crumbling.
This painting has sparked many things in many people I suppose. The first time I saw it in an art book from the high school library, I was captivated. I haven't looked at it in many years until now & I'm thankful to have found this musical creation. It is beautiful, but also somber & actually conveys my emotions, state of mind & the sorrow I have for the judgement we are facing & will have to endure in the near future. So I agree with you @sweet jean & look forward to the end & new beginning of eternity spent with our Creator & Savior doing what we were truly made for...loving Him without the distractions of sensory overload this world has smothered us with. Hope you are well & safe! Take care & meet you some time soon! 🙏🏻❤️
I love your view. It is beautiful.
I wouldn't have ass-umed that this would have come out so well. It really deserves a good clapping, and at 2xs the speed it is even more cheeky. Thanks and well done!
Please don't toot your own horn after that pun.
@@RequiemPoete Let's not be an ass about it.
its bloody brilliant if you ask me. bosch the true pioneer of todays neofolk
I could listen to this on a loop for 600 years.
You might be forced to listen to this for eternity.
I come back to this every few months just to appreciate this high quality of butt stuff
I love butt stuff!
One of my favourite artists; but I never heard the cheeky tune before.
It is so awesome that this exists. Such a beautifully haunting melody.
I came here fully expecting to be Rick Rolled. Imagine my surprise.
Hieronymus Bosch - not only great painter but also a talented music artist!
This is the most beautiful song I've heard in awhile. It perfectly encapsulates life for me, in this moment of time.
We need a melodic black metal cover of this IMMEDIATELY
look like the melodies from atmospheric northern BM, great song Hieronymous!
im working on it might become noise music tho sry
I was thinking exactly the same thing.
Nine Inch Nails Vibes for real.
No
This is exactly the kind of thing I was into 6 years ago. Random art history stuff.
How in all the UA-cam did I miss this?
I've owned this painting in 3 pieces for years and have never noticed the butt music till today! Unbelievable details in his work!
Sounds like im about to hear some fire atmospheric black metal
Fartzum. Fart Farteness.

I feel like this is an opening to a lost Iron Maiden song.
I never knew I could be so enchanted as by the strains and strings of a booty toot.
Just wow! What a great melody. Great melody is timeless; there is no expiration date.
I just came here because my art history class cover this painting and my professor played your version of the song in class. Odd to say, I was pleased hearing butt music.
Eoff?
You probably know this already so sorry for the lateness. Beautiful. You may wonder why such a thing was a punishment in hell. In those days writing music was called “pricking” or ”noting” and had the useage of a sexual pun, as well as pricking the parchment or paper with a sharp awl. Look closely at the barbed tongue, not a pen. As an aside, Shakespeare’s romantic comedy was originally spelt- Much ado about noting, but has been more recently bowderalised.
The amount of butt puns in this comment section brings me unholy glee
Than you Bernadette Banner for pointing me in the direction of this masterpiece
We all agree that if this haunting melody is played at the intersection of the right energy lines in the right forest at midnight on Hallowe'en we *will* open up a new portal to Hell, right?
PS Kudos to everyone involved in bringing this to life! It's exquisite! I am awed by how music and art continues to speak to us, even through time and space.
it´s the most beutyful fart i ever heard
"Bootyful"
hahahaha
Magic.
Magic.
This is the most beautiful rendition of the butt music I've heard.
This song feels like walking through the garden between hell and paradise .Torture sounds coming from left and loud laugh sounds coming from right feels really different.Like a sense I have never experienced before in my entire life.Weird but
This is perfect, I want to listen it again and again
I've been listening 4 times... And here is the fifth comming
Here it is, a whole hour of butt music - no need for replaying, and you can loop it, too :)

15th century post-rock? Niiiiice.
I’m sitting here contemplating turning this into a clean electric guitar piece with bass underpinning the roots and a distorted guitar for the hurdy-gurdy.
This legit sounds like something I'd hear at a goth club.
There are goth clubs?
Lotsa goths are drawn to plague-era arts. You'd be amazed how many turn up at Society for Creative Anachronism events.
Goths still exist? LOL
Intro to a :Wumpscut: track
While listening to this beautiful music, I wondered if Mr. Bosch had friends who would drop by his studio and hangout, talk about what he was doing, and give him suggestions for his masterpiece. What if one was a musician who did write this piece, and suggested to include it in the painting...or someone suggested or Bosch thought of it...who knows. So much happens in the studio!
Hello 👋 Elizabeth, how are you doing ? hope you are fine. I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? you seem like a real country girl
Played this for a Tinder date, she literally unmatched after she left my house. I wonder if it was the Butt Music
she didn't deserve ya bro
It was probably the 6 dead bodies sitting at the kitchen table, arranged to look like they are having a dinner party. Or perhaps it was the one empty seat at that table...
The butt music might not have helped any, though.
That's okay. She obviously didn't share your interests ;)
Pshh good riddance
maybe she wanted lyrically flagellatory buttplay and i just didn't deliver

Oddly enough this song fit perfectly into my very specific "acoustic instrumental metal interlude songs" playlist.
Yes. This song is on Spotify.
I always thought this artist missed his century...He certainly was born to soon because he would have fit right into 20th century abstract collage art and painting, and the Moody Blues could have done something with this piece of music.
My art historian brain is LOVING this.
And yet, it's purpose is lost on you.
"F-art historian brain"...

Gave me goose-bumps in the most beautiful way.
Dana Z The way only a tune scribbled on a damned soul's arse cheeks can :D
In the most butt-iful way, I would say
Were the goosebumps on your butt maybe?
Very interesting!
I’ve composed something similar that came to me as a youngster when I played violin in jr. high.
I’ve kept it close to my vest so it can’t be stolen.
I crossed parts over to piano and guitar. Sad, melancholy eminating from the heart of my young boy’s soul. I couldn’t explain the feelings I was having but the notes spoke for me. 🤷🏽♂️ I can’t explain it to this day at 56!🤦🏽♂️
Gorgeous interpretation. Using this to learn the melody, I should probably use the midi of the basic notes, but this is a lot more pleasing to the ear.
I'll be hard pressed to come up with anything that does any justice after this though, you provided just the right context for the melody, and it all came together.
