My former music teacher likewise. He was a joy to learn with and he loved this piece. A former butcher, but by then a bassoonist, he was wonderfully musical. Thank you so much Mr Hywel Edwards.
Until I heard this beautiful music, I had no idea that the Oboe was such a "sad", emotional sounding instrument, like the Violin or the Cello. Adagio especially pulls on your heart strings.
But behind what appears to be sad there is a glimpse of melancholic hopefulness. The italian baroque composers may be the only ones that are capable of creating such esoteric melodies. Even the maestro Bach enjoyed this piece.
@@marusebpi I guess, when you are a student in the early stages of learning and play in a tiny room with dead acoustics, the sound of an oboe shreds eardrums. However, anything too easy gets boring so soon. When a master plays with a professional orchestra in good (on in this case, acceptable) acoustics, the result is definitely far from AI generated cheese music.
This performance deserves over a billion views.. Its so well done, a wonderful orchestra and a marvelous oboist... ♥️ All hats off to the conductor for keeping the tempo slow enough to actually enjoy the richness of the oboe.. This group is fantastic..
The third movement is played so well, considering that I also play the oboe! Thank you for playing this! This gives me an idea of how to play for my scholarship exam in 2 months! Again, thank you Takuya!
Very sensitive performance from Mr. Takashima and the orchestra (which I never heard of - until now!) Your hall has excellent acoustics. Any chance of visiting New York?
These Baroque concertos were written with the freedom for the soloist to add his personal flavor. At least that was what I've been taught when I was studying Oboe, and was encouraged to do so. Kinda like Cadenzas in concertos with orchestra. You can tailor it to your skill as it were. That's why it is called an interpretation.
