It sounds just as the musicians of the time imagined the Baroque music to be, by adapting it. This composer had an ensemble of music on early instruments (one of the first in existence), and he composed his entire repertoire passing it off as scores mysteriously found in libraries far from anywhere. His scores are in the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, and many have yet to be rediscovered.
Beautiful concerto for such an underrated concerto . Since I just got appointed as the violist in my school quartet ,I have decided to deep dive into the field of viola solo repertoire, and this video is the first thing I have in mind!
You’re right-it doesn’t sound very “Handel” (or even just generally “Baroque enough”) to me, either. (I’m a harpsichordist-this is Poppy, not David- but my younger kiddo plays viola.) It is nice, though, and it’s great to know of as much viola rep. as possible-and certainly some viola concerti. Thank you for sharing.
The composer accompanied Zino Francesccatti (or however his name is spelled) a few years ago and his editing of the Teleman Concerto in G for viola was one I studied in high school, and so his experience is well proven to me. I would love to play this for my friends both with musical background and without.
Casadesus might've had better luck with his ploy if he'd used Gluck, Boccherini, or one of Bach's other children as the original. Or not. Some of the harmonic progressions clearly postdate both the Baroque and Classical eras.
@@SisselOnline It honestly comes across more like J.S. Bach himself, as in his F Minor keyboard concerto (BWV 1056)... but the remote progressions are definitely not something you'd ever see much in the Baroque era.

BRAVI TUTTI.....from Mexico City!
OH MY GOSH WHAT IF THEY FIND MORE VIOLA CONCERTOS EEEEE
???? Why is this so good?? I’m seriously taken aback by how engaging this was.
It IS good, just it doesn't sound like Handel LOL
Anyway, quite baroque progressions with romantic orchestration = BEST
It's not just orchestration, tooo much of modulations and chromatic chords, that is why it doesn't sound baroc as you say.
Yep.
Please! Continue with the channel! It is so great see viola music. It is very hard to find viola stuff!
Yes!

True.
As a Handel listener, immediately do I notice something is wrong lol

I would say both nein
Who is playing?
Forgotten, need to check
Description updated, it's Lubomír Malý playing the viola.

Basso continuo is somewhat heavy and monotonous; otherwise not bad.
Casdensus is not a good imitater on Baroque style lol
