to me the arrangement lost the plot within a few seconds... if I had played that I would be ashamed... the "performer" ruined the content of what he was playing ... I am sure pablo would not be impressed
I Know 4 sure that Pau didnt wanted to be called Pablo, that's the spanish transalation of Pau. Pau Casals was a proud catalan, spanish goverment allways has been hostile towards Catalonia people, Catalonia institutions, Catalonia lenguage and his culture.
DurpenHeimer Doesn't the first chair violinist have to make big movements and exaggerate in order for the orchestra to follow and stay in tempo and all. IDK. I've heard my orchestra director a few times point out, "come on move, you're leading the orchestra. that's why you're sitting first chair". know what i mean?
There are several humble ways to lead your section. I consider her motions as an attempt to take away some of Kloeckner's presence or trying to even compete with him. It's one thing to lead a section, but it is another to showboat.
Jonathan Chan Sometimes, excess movement makes it too hard to follow. No movement is worse, I think, but the first violinist in this is waaay overdoing it. It doesn't even have to be subtle, you can make big gestures; but leaning forward a full 60 degrees (see 1:30) is a bit, well, classless. It might be ok in a chamber performance; but not a chamber performance with a soloist. With a soloist, that kind of movement is just show-offy.
Personally, He's my favorite cellist in terms of style and all.... even though he's not super big yet like du pre, yo yo ma, and rostropovich... But!!... i just love the way he plays the cello. like everything. His performance on Elgars cello concerto is by far the best i have ever heard... beats du pre and mork and all.... Just his playing stlye and the way he plays each note.... they're perfect length and not rushed and uuuuggghh (fanboying). Just my opinion
Great performance and arrangement. The most glaring difference from the orchestrated version i think comes at the 5:30 mark. How does one emulate the bold austerity of the horn? Though not pictured i believe you scored the solo for first cello(?) which seems natural...only there is no dichotomy of sound between 1st cello and solo cello. To accent the statement made by the horn consider instead perhaps first violin playing non div octaves in lower register?
an incredible performance,something special-magical and utterly beautiful, your music comes from the inside, that´s wy you find such colourful and touching sounds, Genial!
As to the concert master: Well, she is leading... That's why she moves at lot more than the tutti players, it's part of her job. I just wonder why you don't criticise Mr Kloeckner for his movements... Anyway, I listen to the music. If I watch the players, I can always shut my eyes if their movements distract me. ;-) And I totally agree with you about Kloeckner's playing!
This was my introduction to the piece. Im glad it was by the mind and Heart of Benedict Kloeckner. Dose any one know if this is how its written? ive listened to others and they have an orchestra or piano accompaniment. I want the edition he is playing for unaccompanied cello. I want to learn this piece and experience her beauty myself.
