We are so spoiled to have such a chance to hear these instruments side by side. Wonderful!
Yep...the Paganini sounds the best to my ear in this recording.
Came back to listen again and I stick by my opinion and the Paganini takes it in this recording...in the first seconds. 0:05 :-)
ScottyP713 I love that sound just amazing
ScottyP713 I am a violinist and this is wonderful
Is the Paganini 100,000% man. I almost cried when it played. In the very first clip. It is the most beautiful cello I have ever heard. I wish I could own it to be able to hear it every day
The high register of the Feuermann cello has so much character, sounds like his recordings, love it!
Sorry for the audio, it was quite a last minute opportunity, if you want to check a comparison between two strads with High Fidelity audio check my Comparison between 1696 and 1694 strads
Ah, Strads. They sure make you work for the tone, but the reward is unlike any other.
I got chills running down my back when you started the Paganini Stradivari. Simply amazing!!
all 3 cellos are a work of art, each one has its personality. thanks for sharing!
Fantástico video-gracias por compartir!!
Gracias por el video, Pablo!!! Un saludo 🌷🌷
Thank you very much! What a privilege and a treat to hear such unique and ancient instruments being played side by side. It's like a direct line back to another time in history!
All 3 cellos looked to be in an amazing state of preservation and quality, how can instruments around 300 years look so good?
Incredible and beautiful!
They're very valuable and well kept. But they need to be played not bought by some millionaire and sitting in a safe. They are made of wood and they're alive believe me.
Extraordinary video! Thank you so much
Gorgeous instruments, gorgeous musician!
FEUERMANN!!!!! Que gran viaje! Saludos Pablo!
I don't know if it's the instrument or that he's been playing it for 6 years, but the Lord Aylesford just floats my boat. I love these types of videos.
So beautiful. Thank you so much for video!
Fascinating. Thank you for posting. Of course they all sound wonderful when you play them , but I also preferred the Aylesford.
Qué hermoso sonido, cada uno mejor que el otro.
Gracias por compartir!
...the reverb from Lord Aylesford 😍😍😍💙💙💙, especially around the lower strings!
Agree.
Parabéns Pablo por compartilhar essa experiencia increível conosco, muitos violoncelistas infelizmente não fazem esse trabalho maravilhoso que você faz de nos amostra esse som incrível desses Stradivarius, gostaria muito que você testasse o Stradivari Marquis de Corberon 1726 dos mestre Steven isserlis que um violoncelista incrível,amo suas gravações. Além, 1711 ‘Duport’ (Rostropovich), 1714 ‘Batta’ (Piatigorsky) and the 1720 ‘Piatti’ (Piatti, Prieto).
They are all beautiful what sounds
thank you
The A string on the Lord Aylesford is just beautiful.....then the Paganini sounds next best...
In my humble opinion!
Best video ever!!!! 🎻🎶
Paganini sounds brutal beautiful 😍
Hands down...the Paganini.
They all really sound like they'd be great for different pieces. I love it!
I would like the lower register of the Aylesford and the higher register of the Paganini if I could combine them. Not that I can play well enough to even produce this consistent and beautiful a sound... yet. :)
Thank you for this so interesting video .From France .
Wooow! You rock guy! play very very well!
Bien Pablo!! Tocas super
Loved the video.You make every cello sound amazing! I love your playing
I think I liked the Paganini the best
My own cello is an old English cello dated 1777
Strange that we both like the Paganini cello and both play old English cellos! Must be a certain quality in the Paganini that we like.
I play on pure gut and Eudoxa.
I have two old cellos, both 17th century (that's all that can be made out from the label), an Austrian Stadelmann (a beautiful little cello easy to play), and a German cello made by the first of the Klotz dynasty, Matthias which has a particularly gorgeous deep sound in the C string.
Loved the Elgar!
I love the Paganini one
Great comparative!
Beautiful
Wish one of my cellos sounded like this!
They are very dark in tone. Beautiful!
That’s a dream!
I’ve played both a Haide Goffriller and their Ruggeri model in a hall, directly against an Antoniazzi and a 1693 Brescian Tononi. No comparison, but the Chinese have clearcut and are running low on wood. Necks, etc., are now made of Chinese materials to conserve supply. I’ve also played the Castelbarco Strad, the Sleeping Beauty Montagnana, etc., and can attest to the echelon of instrument the Haide people are producing; with professional sound setups the results are very often superb-not invariably, of course, but more than occasionally.
All three are fine but my heart goes to the Aylesford. Rich and powerful...has personality!
Pirastro perpetual strings on one, larsen on another and combination larsen/ spirocore on the other are hugely different sets.... great chance to listen to strads:)
If I could grow tall enough to get a full-size cello and have the chance to play on a Stradivarius, I would choose the Paganini. I love the clarity of that wonder of an instrument!
2nd & 3rd to me - but like you said, the Lord Aylesford seems to have a wider range..(more sound range..? -I'm not a musician but what I've heard was the lows & highs have a wider resonance in comparison to the others..? ) Gracias Pablo y felicitaciones por tu carrera meteorica - que es el fiel reflejo de tu inmesurable talento
Thanks so much for this video! I'd say, both older cellos seem to be not finished for fine gradations of cello top thickness, while the youngest one has it almost close to practical limit considering strength. Why such powerful sound effortlessly so to say
Awesome!
Which one is easier to play?
The Feuermann is the easiest! Aylesford the most difficult,
I love Feuermann Cello ❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing and showing the stunning cellos.
Who much you think would be the price of paganini cello ?
The sound of the instruments would be unrecognizable to Stradivarius - his instruments have all been 'modernised': longer neck at increased angle, larger bass bar, metal strings, modern bridge, and played with a modern Tourte bow - the sound therefore is completely different compared to the original set-up, lower pitch, and gut strings etc.
Richard Webb I’m not entirely sure but I don’t think they would have had endpins either
I'm a bit shocked to read that necks are changed on these historic instruments. On the other hand, considering that metal strings are used nowadays, rather than gut strings, I assume that string tension will be greater? This issue probably explains a few changes.
@Kaiser der Frauenfeindlichkeit Thank you. I'm far more knowledgeable about guitars.
@Kaiser der Frauenfeindlichkeit I actually have a deep interest in both electric guitar and classical music, particularly the string quartet.
All string instruments have been changed as Richard Webb says in the 1800s to meet contemporary requirements. all Strads have been changed and we do not know exactly how they sounded. for baroque music they probably sound magnificent but to play the Dvorak on one would be silly. Baroque ideals of sound are different to modern.
Hi, what kind of strings are on the Paganini Cello? Does anybody know that? Looks like the Tonica violin strings colour.
I'm not only a huge fan of your playing, but I also love your likable personality
super bardzo mi się podobało
I swear u play the cello like a young God
Wow impresionante...!!
Me encanta el Elgar muy bien tocadoo!!!!!👌👌👑
Lord Aylesford always!
Enlasdemostraciones solicito opiniones de comparación para seleccionar y distinguir sonidos de cada uno
What a flex to have 3
Som agudo deixa para o violino o bonito no cello são os graves.
Epouvantable vibrato, sauvons-nous
Excelente vídeo. He heredado un violonchelo. ¿Cómo puedo conocer su antigüedad?
Hard to compare because of different string types (steel and gut?).
Anyone knows what type or brand strings are the second cello at 3:20? As well as the red C & G string on the first cello at 1:27? Thanks
when I played the Lord Aylesford and the Feuermann in comparison quite some years ago , I was impressed with two things :
1st , the Aylesford ( the longest -- so in a way largest Stradivari Cello existing today ) was somehow always quite a bit "noisy" on the ear.
What I mean is , it was quite direct , not so very smooth, and when had not always the best feedback of the subtle details of tone and sound, but for sure it was extremely rich of overtones and very powerful.
The Feuermann , the much smaller model, had an extremely direct and powerful sound, still very malleable and rather a bit on the darker side maybe, but still very nice and even.
Of course it was then already equipped with steel strings, and a different bridge from what it had when Isserlis played it so long !
And of course I am sure you also changed the setup and strings of the Aylesford and so that also sound a bit different then back then many years ago.
Anyway -- for me -- both cellos are great, but not the ones I would personally choose if I had the best Stradivaris to choose from.
That would rather be the "Davidoff" ( which I played shortly after a Yo-Yo Ma concert long ago ) or the Mara, which I think is one of the most astounding Cellos of all, at least it has the best projection and overtones in the hall which I tried out the others at ( Aylesford and Feuermann) , in comparison. This hall is difficult for Cello and so great instruments like the Goffriller of G.Capucon or the Montagnana of T.Mork are really struggling there !
However-- there are sometimes cellos which have a better projection than those just mentioned -- namely some great J.B. Vuillaume , which are of course have quite the Stradivari shapes anyway !!
Nice video! Would love to hear the Feuermann with a brighter setup.
I'm a bit shocked how high polished they all are. Shellac overkill.
What do you play on the cello first time in beggining ? Plese ! Thank you ! 🤗
Which song and bar is this? I want to try and learn this part , it really shows the cellos power
They are with different strings, one with bel canto and larsen, another just with larsen, and the last I didn't identify wich strings are in, but all superb cellos!!!!
Do you know where we could get more specific set up information ie string sets used, types of bridges, and tail pieces etc.
castingstorms these instruments are millions or hundred of thousands of dollars
Strings will very depending on instrument
I like the Paganini one as well, because of its D string quality. What make of strings are on it- I don't recognise them? My own is an Old English cello 1780.
Pirastro Perpetual. Not sure which version without looking in the scroll.
@@CellistMichaelWay Great. No wonder I like the quality- I don't like Larsen strings, even though the other cellos are spectacular!
THE YOUNGEST! 1736! IM ROLLING IN MY CHAIR RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF HOW FUNNY THIS IS TO ME.
Ilove the cello yamaha 2020 also
What type of strings? What are the tail pieces made of?
Anyone know the first song used to demonstrate the lower register? Know the song but not the name
What kind of bow are you using in the video?
A cello bow! 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Laura Dunstan well yeah but they make cello bows differently
@@NutsAboutHarry nah really? I thought he was using an elephant trunk.
@@joyce_rx well if one asks dumb shit questions they're bound to get dumb shit answers aren't they?
@@NutsAboutHarry Are you actually this dumb or are you just trying (and miserably failing) to be funny? A cheap bow can make a even a stradivari sound like a crap instrument
Están vueltos a barnizar estos violoncelos???
What's the name of the piece played at the first moment of the video?
I think the audio is clipping.
what is the name of the piece at 5:49 thanks
Which songs did he play? Could we get time stamps too?
Strings are different. And the instruments, for sure, were modernized, their neck angle rectified, so they sound more modern than when they were built. But to properly comparison, there should have been used the same brand and model of the strings.
In the Headphones of my Computer, the Aylsford Sound is not focused enough at all strings - so do the Feuermann and for me
the best one is the Paganini.
Maybe the Setup brings other results. Try "Acusticus" Tailpieces on all the Strads, the Sound become more free for more prospection !
Are these for sale ? I suppose they are all expensive, about how much do they cost ?
What's the name of that first piece you played in the beginning of the video?
Elgar Cello Concerto 1st movement
What is the song he played in the beginning?
It's the first movement of the Elgar Cello Concerto in E minor
The Paganini is the darkest, it's the most robust, but can also sound a little "tubby" in the high end to my ear. The Aylesford is nice, very crystalline and cavernous sounding. The Feurmann is my favorite, it has a voice all it's own, almost whispery in the beginning on the high notes. It sounds the saddest, it has the most soul.
Isnt that the Strad that Mr. Isserlis is using? ( the Feuermann)
Used to use , yes :)
Feuermann one sounds the nicest to me
what song is this? (at the very start)
Could you maybe open a discord server or do live streams?
No one will ever be worthy to be in the same room as three Stradivari instruments.
Rubbish! Art is not about instruments.
All of them sound great to me, but I'm not a musician. I just love music.
What strings?
3:19
1696
I hear more of a roar in the Paganini, cant notice any diffrences from the other cellos though unfortuntley
What song did he play when the video started?
Isaac Cortijo Elgar cello concerto
What was the piece you played in the begining?
It's the beginning of Elgar Cello Concerto
@@nuu9282Are you sure it's Elgar Cello Concerto?
Beautiful cellos, handsome player 😉
I like the feuermann best
僕も
Pardon my ignorance but what is the first piece played, it’s beautiful?
Sorry for the really _really_ late reply, but that is Elgar's cello concerto.
Los tres suenan increíbles, pero me quedo con Lord Aylesford!!! 💕 es que esos bajos suenan de maravilla
