Bach - Orchestral Suite 3 in Bmin

[RichardM]

Who was the orchestra performing this piece - it wasn't listed. A "nice" performance but the trumpets were really pretty weak. Sounded like the conductor interpreted this to be a "sitting-room" piece when really it's a big, major work. Trumpets and tympani should knock your socks off when they come-in. Just my thoughts.

[pwalthall]

Lovely but rather boring. Can this really be J.S.Bach?

[Tanya]

Beautifu... so tender, I never get tired of this piece.

[Kooba]

j'aime beaucoup cette pièce, elle me donne des frissons :!
Toute la maitrise de Bach.

[diesis]

La grande maitrise de composition de Bach qu'on retrouve dans ses oeuvres et specialement dans son Wohl temperiertes Klavier, livre d'étude que meme Beethoven portait avec soi.

Bach, pas du tout un "torrent", plutot un océan de musique.

(je ne trouve pas les circonflexes)

[stradi]

Bach, c'est curieux, on y revient toujours. On joue Paganini, Kreisler, Ravel, Saint-Saëns et puis on reprend une partition ou un cd de Bach.

En toute modestie...je joue une adaptation de Milstein de l'Aria pour violon (Air on G string)...tout sur la corde de sol (la plus grave) du violon.
C'est beau (assez difficile aussi !), mais la version orchestrale que l'on vient d'entendre est incomparable.
C'est un peu comme l'éclairage. On peut créer un éclairage qui éclaire une surface, ou un volume, comme pour les stades de foot.
Ici, c'est la même chose. L'harmonie de Bach crée un volume sonore.
André.

Stradi, voir message suivant...

Dans ma petite remarque ci-dessous, je parle de volume sonnore dans Bach.
Je pensais aussi à Beethoven, dans la 7me symphonie, 2ème mouvement.
Diesis aussi semble t-il.
Bien à vous.

[diesis]

Et des sonorités pareilles on les rencontre dans d'autres synphonies de Beethoven come la 2me, 2me mouvement (Allegretto) et encore plus peut ètre dans la 4me, 2me mouvement (Adagio).

J'avais déjà dit ailleurs qu'il serait bien d'avoir ici si non des synphonies entières de Beethoven, au moins des mouvements.
Malheuresement il n'y en a rien du tout dans un canal classique, et c'est bien dommage.

[pech]

Avec un très bon retard, mais je suis d'accord avec stradi aussi sur la sonorité du 2-me mouvement (Allegretto) de la 7-me de Beethoven, la marche initiale qui nous enveloppe avec son sonore crescendo.

Et là je repète encore une fois qu'il serait bien d'avoir ici dans ce canal des symphonies de Beethoven, si non entières au moins des mouvements.

====================

Though with a rather good delay, I agree with stradi on the sonority of the 2-nd movement (Allegretto) of the 7th- Symphony of Beethoven (I mentioned before other movements in other symphonies), the initial march wrapping you with its sonorous crescendo.

And I'd like to repeat here that it would be good to have in this channel some symphonies of Beethoven or at least some movements from them.

[Roxy]

I agree with Richard. The trumpets are rather week, but I love it.

Why do we not hear any Chopin?

[NewOrleanslady]

Heavenly.

[SA_NPH]

This is the most horrible, crawling, weakly-interpreted rendition of this piece I have ever heard. The conductor should have his conducting privileges revoked... he has obviously never seriously studied baroque. He is playing this like it was written in the 19th century, and not even well! This goes way beyond creative interpretation... the conductor obviously does not understand the music nor the period it came from, nor the composer who wrote it. I wonder how many of the players were rolling their eyes at his instructions.

I would understand if this was a recording of a youth orchestra... but I highly doubt it.

Please don't put such horrible recordings of Bach on the playlist. This recording was so bad I literally had to press Stop halfway through. My ears were rebelling. This reflects poorly on the taste of the people who select the tracks for this station.

[SA_NPH]

I am saddened by the high number of votes for "simply amazing" on this... There are far better recordings of this piece. This piece is way, way, way below average on the scale of exellence.

I am starting to think this classical station is targeted towards casual listeners and the people who manage it are not selective in their choices at all. They are wasting their licensing money on a lot of the mass-produced "mozart/bach makes you smart", "bach for babies", "musical meditation album #376502765", "bach at the beach" re-re-re-re-licensed classical recording trash Ive heard on here. A modern low-quality Naxos recording is of higher value than this Bach rendition and many of the other tracks I hear on this station. Use tracks off of real classical recordings, please, and you might attract a far greater number of listeners.

Well, this is your opinion...

Mine is that Bach sounds GREAT always.

[Lomotey]

Ah!!!.... I needed that. A sophisticated piece... Simply love it!
