This instrumental, flute-based song is an adaptation of the piece "Bourrée," written by Johann Sebastian Bach. The Bach version was written for lute, and is his fifth movement of the Suite in E minor for Lute. Also known as "Aufs Lautenwercke" (works for the Lute), Bach wrote the piece in the early 1700s. The music was used for the 2012 Ethno France concert at the Luxembourg park in Paris.
In a Songfacts interview with Ian Anderson he explained why he decided to adapt the Bach composition: "I got to the point where I was playing the flute every night on stage in the early part of '68, and so by the end of the year, I was casting around for an instrumental piece as a successor to the Roland Kirk piece, 'Serenade to a Cuckoo,' which I'd been playing most of 1968. I wanted something that had a syncopated jazzy feel, but a melody that wasn't associated with the jazz world or the blues world.
And 'Bourée' was a little bit of music that came to me through the floorboards of my bedsitter in London, because there was a media student in the room below who kept playing over and over again this refrain of the Bach tune "Bourée." He played it on classical guitar, but he only ever got the one bit, he never progressed beyond that basic thing. So I kept hearing that over and over and over and over again, and decided that I would try to use that little tune some way as a starting point for an instrumental piece.
And Martin Barre, who literally at that point in January '69 was just kind of auditioning to join the band, said, 'Oh, I know that. I think I've got the sheet music somewhere for Bach's 'Bourée.'' So it was something we could fairly readily embark upon as a variation on a classical piece of music."
BRILLIANT! Thanks.
Appreciate the info- thank you, kind sir. Peace, love and bellbottoms from Canada.
Ian Anderson studied fine art at Blackpool College of Art from 1964 to 1966 while living in Lytham St Annes. His tendency to stand on one leg while playing the flute came about by accident, as he had been inclined to stand on one leg while playing the harmonica, holding the microphone stand for balance. Anderson was known for his famous one-legged flute stance, and was once referred to as a "deranged flamingo".
One critic referred to him as a "drunk Captain Hook."
Deranged Flamingo is so good 😅
My favourite band for over 50 years. They’re all great musicians, but the bass on this track is amazing.
50 for me, too. Since I was an infant. My dad and I bonded over Jethro Tull. I've been to so many concerts and small venue performances. My favorite band, and particularly, front man EVER. My low-key anxiety is that I will never meet Ian Anderson in person, face-to-face. His music has been my foundation and my security blanket for my entire life.
A bouree is an old French dance that, as you noted, involves spinning around. The core of this piece is a Bach piece. I saw him live when my son 'dragged' me to see him at Wolf Trap one summer. (OK, he didn't have to drag me very hard. He got hooked on JT listening to my Aqualung LP). He was over 60 at the time we saw him and he was still dancing around on one foot.
I love that you continue to come back to my favorite band, Jethro Tull, and react to their music. I appreciate that you are captivated by Ian Anderson's performance. I wish you would just react to concert footage or studio recordings, and maybe not to video's such as this, where they are just pantomiming a studio recording, but such were most TV music promotions of this era. In this era, if you see a band on TV it is 98% a pantomime, unless it is Midnight Special or The Beatles on Ed Sullivan. I really love that you are reacting to Jethro Tull, don't get me wrong, I want more!
Ian Anderson is probably the most unique on of a kind musical genius of his time. He was the consummate performer and showman. His flamingo stance is legendary when he played his flute.
Great reaction Britt! I was a young man when Jethro Tull was popular. They were such a unique band and it was a great time for music innovation. Ian had a habit of vocalizing through his flute while playing to really create a one of a kind sound.
Not only the great flute playing, the bass playing is friggin amazing. Thumbs up Glenn Cornick, RIP
I was fortunate to have seen his 1976 concert at the old Tampa Stadium known as the 'Big Sombrero.' Though I was nearly as far from the stage at the back of the Stadium I can still remember the performances by each of the band members. Ian Anderson was extraordinary and the lead guitarist, bassist and keyboardist were simply amazing.
This is a section from a classical piece. I believe by JS Bach. Tull is one of my favorites. Thank you. ps they took the name of the group from a person who invented the seed drill during the industrial revolution
I once won a trivia contest by correctly answering the question, "Who was the 18th century inventor of the seed drill?" Everyone thought I was crazy when I gleefully answered "Jethro Tull!"
@@bonnievonbraun6276 love it!!
Nice bit of Glen Cornick bass play.
The main theme is from the notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach, easy pieces Bach wrote for his wife, many titled simply as the dance form they fell under.
Not really. This is a movement from the suite in E minor for the lute.
"Aufs Lautenwerck" also known as Bouree was written in the 1700's by Johann Sebastian Bach.
I first saw Jethro Tull on the War Child tour. I had never thought of music performance as theater until then. Every aspect of the show was not only musically superb, but was amazingly enjoyable to watch. It completely changed my perspective on how to perform as a musician.
From Wikipedia - His tendency to stand on one leg while playing the flute came about by accident, as he had been inclined to stand on one leg while playing the harmonica, holding the microphone stand for balance. Anderson was known for his famous one-legged flute stance, and was once referred to as a "deranged flamingo"
FYI although well into his 70's Ian has announced they will be touring the states this summer for the first time in 11 years
There really is no other band quite like Jethro Tull. So unique, talented and FUN. Great reaction 👍
He's a force, a monster GOAT
Two recently learned fun facts related to Jethro Tull - (a) they once invited Toni Iommi from Black Sabbath to join the band. (b) Ian was self taught on the flute after deciding that Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page weren't levels of guitar he could attain.
I had the Pleasure of seeing Jethro Tull in the early 70's and it was Awesome.
He's so talented. He also sings, plays harmonica and guitar, sometimes all in one song. I take 500mg of Quercetin, 1 vitamin D & C and 25mg of zinc daily and don't get sick. If you start on it while you're sick take the same amount twice daily. I hope you get well soon.
I've always said a journey through the works of Jethro Tull will grow brain cells. Ian Anderson is a genius and the more you learn about him, the more impressed you become.
Ian Anderson is a SELF TAUGHT flutist. Now considered one of the best.
Lovely reaction as ever....thank you.
The standing on one leg seems to be a natural stance playing the flute. Many illustrations from history, show flutists standing in that pose.
I guess they didn't have anything to say. LOL One of my favorite Jethro Tull songs, and one of my favorite reactions.. Thank you!
Thank you! Love Bouree 😁
Just came across your channel the other day. Really enjoy it. Keep up the good work, Thank You... I first was introduced to Jethro Tull back in 1970 or 71 when I was about 12 or 13. The Benefit album was the first one I heard. I saw them many times. Always loved the early stuff from "Stand Up" to " A Passion Play".
Ian Anderson on one leg. I read the story once, that there was a pre-Tull band, he took a promo pic, with a harmonica… on one foot, with the other against the wall,he was leaning on. When Tull started, an English rock writer, said he played the flute on one leg… Challenge accepted, Ian’s played like that for decades since.
A Boree is a French country dance later adopted by court musicians. Bach would have loved this, his fugues were all about counterpoint, and variations about a musical motif, just a few notes expanded and elaborated into a complex composition. He would have loved this because he could do this improvisation at will, in his head. A real genius.
Yeah, saw Jethro Tull in 69. So different but so good and talanted.
funky...spinny twirly feel good music......YEAH!
Get well as soon as possible! Good health for you! 😊👍
This song and Aqualung heard in early 70's drew me into the bands sound. Loved every song they do and the minutes I get to hear them again )
Ian Anderson is the singer/flautist/multi-instrumentalist/songwriter.
I totally forgot how much I like this song. Thanks!
Like I mention in Tull's other video. Saw him in concert. He is a totally trip!!!! He's great
And hope you feel better soon.
Happy Belated Birthday to one o the most overlooked Rock Bass Player, Glen Cornick
Glenn Cornick great bass player. RIP
Like a few of the others here, I saw Jethro Tull live and would stare at Ian Anderson. How could he do the stances and moves he did? We would try to imitate him and fail miserably. What a showman
I love Jethro Tull. A blues guitarist and singer who has made a huge cover of a Jethro Tull song is Chantel McGregor. She did a fantastic cover of Jethro Tulls , A New day Yesterday.
The bourrée (Occitan: borrèia;[1] also in England, borry or bore) is a dance of French origin and the words and music that accompany it.[2] The bourrée resembles the gavotte in that it is in double time and often has a dactylic rhythm. However, it is somewhat quicker, and its phrase starts with a quarter-bar anacrusis or "pick-up", whereas a gavotte has a half-bar anacrusis.
BEEN 1 OF MY TOP 3 ROCK FAVORITES FOR 50 YEARS BRITT! 😊 ALONG WITH ELTON JOHN & NEIL YOUNG 😊 LOTSA LOTSA GREAT SONGS WITH THOSE 3 BANDS!
Beautiful ❤️🔥 and full of energy and fun and excitement 😊
Bourree is an old dance called the French clog dance. The song is based on Bach's Bourrée in E minor from the early 1700s I believe.
Wishing you well!
Jethro Tull's Bourée is an adaptation of J.S. Bach's Bourée in E Minor. Bach composed Bourée specifically for an instrument called the lute. Ian Anderson knew this, got the idea to just add an 'f' to 'lute', made it his own, and the rest is history. I also read that Bourrée is a dance of French origin, which would make sense. Ian was famous for his one-legged flute performances. He did it when I saw him in concert. He was amazing! Thanks for a great reaction! ✌💙✌
I’ve been listening to Jethro Tull for the last 50 years and I’ve seen them 12 times over the years. I think you would really enjoy doing a reaction to thick as a brick live from Madison Square Garden.Thanks for reacting to a great band. By the way, I think you are absolutely gorgeous.
This bourree is part of the Bach Lute Suite No. 1. Of course, Ian Anderson takes many liberties with this short piece. This is excellent...albeit jazzy.
I have been listening to Ian and JT from the 70's .....please cutie you have to hear, teacher, crossed eyed mary....Aqualung the guitar solo amazing, black satin dancer....just listen to every album they made.
It was a common thing for baroque composers to use dances (usually sped up a little) as the basis for their instrumental pieces. Bach did it a lot, but other composers, too. Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, Gigue, are other dances that were commonly used.
Get well soon!
I always bought Ian Andersen’s dance routines as “ the Pied Piper
Ian Anderson the front man has an on-stage persona somewhere between a daft tramp and a world-weary bard -- if you like this band, try their live version of Velvet Green at Carnegie Hall -- incredible arrangements
In reference to the one-legged stance, Ian Anderson had said in an interview, "It just felt right,". Keep Smiling.
You really do find the creme de la creme to react to, Britt....and it's so worth while watching you!
Ian Anderson is front man & Bouree was composed by Johann Sebastian Bach
You should watch the duo when he played with a female astronaut ON the space-station. She was on the station he was down here.
He is actually vocalizing into his flute while he plays.
The people below put it beautifully but to add just a little bit, it is from Bach and it deals with a collection like many artists did at that time of baroque dances done by people in the country. Almost the equivalent of our barn dances, so his music was adapted and yes spinning was involved much like our square dances. Remember they would be called something different because Bach died in 1750.
So the bass, aside from the obvious rock segments, is what's called a "walking bass," which was typical for baroque music. It was a main component of the basso continuo aka figured bass. It provides the chord progression, with the keyboard (usually harpsichord) providing the actual chords. Sometimes it's a cello, sometimes a bassoon, or just all pianoforte as in Bach's works.
I do love Tull. Ian Anderson's lyrics are both ridiculous, and profound at once, and the songs all tell stories.
At the risk of outing my age, in the seventies I saw them live three times and yeah, he would perform about all his flute solos on one leg. Sometimes it seemed like fifteen minutes. He’s also an accomplished classical style acoustic guitarist. But, the whole band was awesome and he really complimented them. It’s really nice to see your enthusiasm as it reminds us that even though it’s not necessarily new, it’s still relevant and kinda cool.
Take good care.
Your audio is amazing! Kudos!
Since you've done a deeper dive into Jethro Tull's catalog than most, I highly recommend "Minstrel in the Gallery." I particularly like the live version from the "Bursting Out" album.
Britt the way you talk about Ian and dance i know for a fact you would absolutely LOVE Lindsey Stirling

This is a jazz/rock interpretation of the classical Bouree by J.S. Bach. No theatrical BG whatsoever. He created (probably subconsciously) an image of a minstrel/pied piper/court jester.
Bouree is a piece by Johan Sebastian Bach in the early 's so this is a cover and a dang good one. Feel better. Love R.
They were one of three popular Rock groups that could use a flute successfully - JT, The Moody Blues and The Marshall Tucker Band - I'll suggest NOTHING IS EASY (JT), LEGEND OF A MIND (MB), and A NEW LIFE (MTB). Feel better! There must be something going around - my serious sinus congestion just went into my chest, and previously thought it was a blossom allergy.
This is based on classic music by J.S. Bach, also called Bouree (but without the second e) but Jethro Tull's version is more uptempo and jazzy.
I've seen them six times
SPRING FEVER GIRL! 😮 CHEST COLD, HEAD COLD, ETC!🙁 FEEL BETTER BRITT😊
Hope you get to feeling better. 🤧 Bless you.
Ian Andersen is Main man for Jethro Tull ! Play more from "Stand-up!" album like "Nothing is easy!"
his flute is doing the singing for him
yes, he trained as a ballet dancer, when he was a boy
Great song. Who would guess Bach
Some more exploration of the crazy English bard ? La BouRRée is a folkloric double time dance for one or two couples. It originated in the Centre of France but spread all over Europe...
I believe his parents had never seen him perform live, at least not in the early years.
You need to hear some other Jethro Tull songs for sure.
Please also listen to the song, For a Thousand Mothers. Studio pls.
You'll love the flute there.
🌺
Ian Anderson can sing and play while staying one leg for over ten minutes while l can't stand on one leg long enough to put my trousers on.
Bouree 17th century French dance usually in quick duple time
Paul is completely correct, so my only contribution is that La Giaconda is another name for Mon Lisa and I think I saw her through your rainy screen
That Smell Lynyrd Skynyrd Studio Version
🤧😩🥶
Not called "falsetto", per se, but woodwinds (and brass) have "registers" because you can make it sound on a harmonic of the note for the basic note selected by the fingering. Most woodwinds do octave harmonics (clarinets are oddballs by have a 12th between registers (3rd harmonic rather than 2nd). Brass is more flexible (which is how trumpets get away with only 3 keys). On flute the angle and shape (and strength of the air stream) selects between the fundamental and the octave. (Advanced players in all woodwinds can play even higher that the harmonic of the all holes open position (Benny Goodman is one of my heroes in this respect - and in many other respects).
You described Jethro Tull in another video as “dressed like Robin Hood.” Ian Anderson adapted a medieval “minstrel” persona. Others have mentioned this song as a cover version of a Baroque classic. The band is named for a 17th century activist. It all sort of ties together.
Does anyone pls know anything about the tv show (La Joconde) in which Tull performed?
Ian's the best frontman ever. Jim
The band Jethro Tull has a wide variety of style from hard rock to ballads to this, which is a take off on classic music. Ian sings on most other song. Try Aqualuna or A New Day Yesterday (Heavy rock), Living in the Past, (Rock) or lighter Songs From the woods, and Life is a Long Song. The guitarist Martin Barre is very vesitile. Feel better with your cough.
Tracy Lawrence - I See It Now
J S Bach baroque composer adapted from his original.
This is a mimed performance done to the actual album recording...a little disappointing, but that's how it was done on television a lot of the time back then. Ian Anderson used to do the flamingo stance while playing harmonica with the band before he taught himself to play the flute. That is not just his breath you here under the flute, but it is him humming or vocalizing along with the flute playing. He also often includes snorts, growls, scatting, and other various percussive noises and vocalizations under his flute playing. He decided on the flute to be unique and stand out from other front men because he was not a top level lead guitarist, although he is excellent at acoustic and rhythm guitar.
The song is originally Bach
Good morning beautiful lady.
Let's hear it for the base player 👏
