Holst: Jupiter from The Planets, arr. for wind quintet 

That flute is having the time of his life

God damn that horn player is doing some of the finest blending of tone I've ever heard!

They really played this whole 8 minute piece from memory, go off

I am JEALOUS of that bassoonist Such a rich bassoon sound...

Sounds like a full band with even small numbers.

Quite an arrangement! Playing from memory! 😃 The Horn player nailed this with clear, smooth sound!

Love how you almost don´t hear it when the horn takes over the clarinets tone in 2:46

How miserable do you have to be to dislike this?

Why is Tom Hanks playing the clarinet

Jupiter holds such a special place in my heart, and this was an absolutely amazing arrangement of it! I was a tuba player in school, but I always said that if I ever did it again with a different instrument, it would be a French Horn or a Bassoon. Both have such a rich, mellow sound and this really takes advantage of that! Well done!

Very clean! And that's a LONG piece to memorize

This Quintet is outstandingly rehearsed, many overlook the timing & intimacy in the phasing. The timing, spot on, interplay with a solo brass, spot on. What hit me, was from right to left, the fills near the conclusion, each instrument spoke. Mind you, I just happened upon this, I was blown away. I was into Classical at an early age

We see the exquisite playing and hear the brilliant technique and easily forget....THEY ARE PLAYING THIS ALL FROM MEMORY! Such a great performance.

simply beautiful! the horn is so melty and regal in its tone

I love how the musicians are bobbing in time with each other

As a fellow f. Horn player I’m impressed with her ability to meld perfectly into the woodwind’s tone when needed and also have her brass moments come through to the fore with a nice layered, dynamic tone to complement the rest of the wind arrangement rather than overpowering it.

The oboe player's tone is godly.

that interaction between the musicians though! marvellous!

Amazing! That horn part though, it just melts and blends with the woodwinds beautifully! A joy to the ear

The Bassonist was my teacher at a bassoon camp, she's awesome! She also has videos on The Breaking Winds YT Channel

This is why horn is the chameleon of the band. It’s also the best instrument ever btw.

This woodwind quintet played with extraordinary musicality and artistry! It’s an honor to hear this amazing Holst composition performed at such a high level. Bravo!

this is mad, i love it. capturing a whole orchestra in just five musicians

This group gives off vibes of all having been best friends since middle school.

Love the smile the oboe layer gives the bassoonist at 2:46, lovely moment in an incredible performance!

I could top all state if I was 1/8th as good as this flautist! His tone is super crisp and full, I love it.

I just heard the person taking clarinet lessons before me playing this yesterday and now it’s in my recommended wtf

That man is a flute god😍

The flutist was straight up VIBING!! I wish I had that sound; time to start practicing more. ( = v=)

Everyone's favorite planet has never shone more brilliantly.

And with 3 LADYS,yes we are in 2023….things has happend in the world of music….listen to the horn player….I am very impressed…give us more from you…of all the windquintet on RU-vid in 2024 you topp the list..first time a quintet with all the players seems to have the same sound….that is unik…hope you understand. Regards from a retired collega..

that's a whole ass 8 minute piece from memory holy crap

This brought me to tears because I remember playing this for marching band my senior year, I remember my trumpet one solo at 3:02 I remember standing on the 50 yard line playing my soul out on that solo, whole field silent for me... That solo got me a full ride scholarship to a university in Texas. My proudest moment, other than graduating TDCJ academy. Thank you for reminding me of an incredible moment of my little uneventful life.

The french horn player representing the brass was awesome, bravo to all of them! I love when a music becomes an invisible conductor, in essence, the symphony/quintet, etc. conducts itself.

Fine playing of an arrangement that mostly captures Jupiter's musical content. I played oboe in a quintet for a number of years. Many people do not realize how physically demanding chamber music is! You have far fewer rests than when playing in an orchestra, and every note is going to be heard, including the clams! That these players make it look easy is credit to countless hours of practice and rehearsal plus native talent and hard-won endurance.

This is so awesome. Didn't know five instruments could make Jupiter sound so cool, almost cooler than a whole orchestra in many ways.

That oboe is so beautiful

This is so freakishly amazing I catch myself watching it over and over again. Thank you so much for posting it. Love love, love love love

I stoped playing flute 3 yrs ago, and I played this in my 11th grade band class, found this video and I wanna start playing again

A good piece would have the instruments “communicate” with each other, which is what Jupiter does. The players also REALLY help demonstrate this communication between the parts.

This piece was used in the Movie, The Right Stuff, I heard myself say out loud, God Speed John Glenn. Great performance!

the oboe sounds so good🥺‼️as well as the French horn!!

I wonder who is responsible for the arrangement? It brilliantly shows Holst's ingenuity in combining the threads into a compelling whole.

All memorized? Just incredible!

Masterful transcription and great performance--from memory no less.

3:01 the bit I know you're all looking for

各楽器の個性が活かされててすごく心地好い！ この色彩の豊富さは金管や弦よりも優れてると思う

Saw this amazing group at the Schneider Concerts at the New School in NYC this weekend. SO fresh and in sync with each other. Loved the range of music from early 19th century to early 21st century. You are in for a treat if you can catch them in person!

The opening will always be challengingly beautiful to me

最も無駄のないクインテット。 管楽器しかないのに弦楽器の音すら感じられる素晴らしい演奏。

There needs to be a convention of all the best musician groups on RU-vid to form the greatest symphonic orchestra. Calling up mnozil brass, this group, and the rest of the sections would make a group that is beyond phenomenal. Even better, they are already amazing as they are.

That oboist is amazing, I can only imagine. But regardless they sounded great, and I really love this piece.

my marching band did a field show with Jupiter in it!! we played from 3:02-4:49

Wow the clarinetist killed it! Bravo to everyone, that takes skill

3:01 The patriotic moment of all patriotic moments begins here.

Wow! Fantastic. Makes the genius of Holsts' writing so transparent.

Now I miss playing clarinet :/

This is an amazing arrangement!!! You captured all the textures and power of the whole orchestra with such a small ensamble. Kudos! And fantastically performed as well, Cheers!!

I've been showing this video to my elementary school players for years. Even a 10 yr. old can tell that this is special.

RU-vid recommeded this to me because I always listen to the orchestra version by Andrew Manze. Boy, am I in for a surprise. This arrangement is absolutely beautiful. Great performance. Bravo 👍

Superb performance, 1 horn takes the place of 6 and sounds totally convincing. Wonderful.

The oboist is amazing

Lovely I wish I could play the French Horn like this and this arrangement is amazingly beautiful!

This low brass player is profoundly impressed! Great music-making, wonderful interaction among musicians and audience, great arrangement. Bravi.

This is one of the coolest sounding ensembles I’ve ever heard! Perfect combination of instruments! John Williams would give you his two handed thumbs up 👍 👍 approval!! (Every player in this quintet is a master performer!!)

This translates amazingly well to woodwind quintet.

I just wanna say how cool of an instrument the bassoon is.

Beautiful! Just stumbled upon this. I hesitate when I see arrangements away from the original intent as they tend to deny the physical richness of the sound. However, this one brings out all the goosebumps and joy. Thank you for sharing.

oboist did a great job! tbh all of them are astonishing :O the horn sound gave me goosebumps

Wow. The complexity of sound coming from just 5 voices, and the dynamics and blending are absolutely perfect. Awesome performance.

木管五重奏。いい演奏を見させてもらいました❗

ホルンの低音正確に当たっててすごいですね！ 木管と馴染んでる！きれいーーー

The horn and bassoon sound so beautiful! 3:02 is my FAVORITE part

Superb. I play oboe and make reeds. A lot of talent here.

Wow! All the big record companies through the years stuffing this composition with sound-o-Rama techniques.......and THIS rendition is what I appreciate the most. Thank you.

oh my god... that moment at 6:40 was just beautiful. The clarinet sounds beautiful with the runs right after... what an amazing piece!!!!!

That arrangement is great! And the players too, of course

Bravo to everyone, especially Anni, great Horn!!

Absolutely superb performance, tempi and dynamics spot on. What seriously talented musicians they are. A fantastic arrangement too.

Well done. I am glad I stumbled across this. Love hearing the distinct voices by accomplished players. Good arrangement.

I really admire the oboe and bassoon players. Never played them but have heard that they are the most difficult wind instruments to play well. Great job!

ダブルードの御二方の音の響きの広がり方が美しすぎる！！フルートの方の音の魅せ方にとっても惹き込まれました！ホルンの方の音色がどタイプてます！クラの方は音色と発音がめちゃめちゃ綺麗で憧れます！私もこんな音色で吹きたいです！

Great performance of this Holtz masterpiece transcribed for 5 pieces----sounds great!

5:15 brings me more serotonin than my antidepressants

Bruh, I'm lowkey crushing on the bassoon player?

"Remember I'll always be here for you, even if you can"t see me, because I love you." - Chilli Heeler

Hats off to you guys... Specially horn and bassoon player..

Fantasmagorical!! These folks are really enjoying themselves. Oh, Yeh!! Next stop, My Country, I Vow to Thee, and then The Lord is My Shephard...

Amazing performance! I sometimes have times where I don't listen to classical in a long time. I get very irrational and I think I'll lose my passion and love for it. But things like this that make my ears crave, my back shiver, and smiles crack on my lips remind me why I fell in love with music in the first place. Thank you so much

OMG!! This arrangement is absolutely BRILLIANT!! Our orchestra performed this suite in college. I was 1st flute. This work so touches my heart. 😟🥺🥺❤❤❤❤

this arrangement got me bawling. its like a toddler version of jupiter and i just imagine a baby walking around jamming to this

The flute playing is soo amazing! They all are extremely talented! 😄

Not only was the music spot on (Holst is fav composer - his Adagio #10 for violins is absolutely haunting) but the outfits were very pleasant. An attractive group playing an incredible arrangement. They all look so fit and tasty!

Wow, I think the oboe player is the soloist from the orchestra which has a video performing Gabriel’s Oboe live on youtube, and that video inspired me to learn oboe

What an excellent arrangement ! The players are also very good !

My school band just played this piece for our last concert in December!

I play three of the five instruments in the video and it was so inspiring to watch. (I’m 14 and I play the flute, clarinet, and bassoon)

The endurance of the french horn!

One of my favorite pieces (I love this version). They are just a great band; like many great bands they have awesome synergy.
