Magnifique. Tout y est. Un superbe hommage à Bach, éternelle source d'inspiration. Un clin d'oeil à Eugen Cicero et ses envolées lyriques. Et bien entendu le souvenir d'enfance des triplettes de Belleville... Depuis longtemps une de mes réinterprétations favorites. Merci de l'avoir postée :-)
❤ I loved this from triplets to Belleville My only criticism was that it didn’t last anything like long enough on the CD and I’ve got this glorious version thank you. I really really love what you do with this.
Wow, merci, et très bien dit ! Je suis flatté et heureux d'entendre ça ! Je suis tout à fait d'accord, la musique de Bach est éternelle, et peuvent vivre dans plusieurs interprétations différentes, mais ça reste Bach toujours !
ah, le clavier bien tempéré quelle merveille ! Merci beaucoup de faire vivre Bach, dont on dit souvent qu'il est le père de la musique moderne, sans avoir tant d'occasions de goûter de telles démonstrations d'actualité. Bach à la Jazz est exactement du Bach, et exactement du Jazz, c'est nickel !
I love riffing on classical music (I enjoy playing with Bach Preludes too, and Beethoven's Pathetique 2nd mvmt and other adagios), but your skill and personality are off the charts. Thanks! Total inspiration!
Really Cool! Now I'm doing a choreography for my students in my dance class and we really enjoy it! And for the classical pianist who plays for us, it's also a nice challenge! Thank you for this "Bach à la Jazz"...
Thanks Fanny! Very happy to hear that, glad you enjoyed it:). Thanks for writing! Btw, I'm a big fan of Sherlock, so it was fun to see that video on your page;) ciao, matt
Thanks for all your comments! Sorry, my mistake, it's book 1, of course. Thanks for correcting that. For anyone interested in checking out my music and activities, please visit my website. I'll put the link in my "video description".
Merci Remi pour tes commentaires:) Content que vous l'avez aimé. Oui, c'est maintenant un peu différent de ce que j'ai fait pour Le Triplettes de Belleville, mais ce film est toujours la source de la création de cet arrangement! Je fais bcp d'arrangement des musiques de Bach ces jours. Il y a ici des vidéos d'une performance que j'ai fait en direct sur radio WQXR à New York: pour le trouver, faite une recherche de "Matt Herskowitz WQXR Bach Lounge" et c'est les premiers 3 vidéos.Bonne écoute! m
Hello Em. I do have sheet music for the original version I recorded for the soundtrack of the film Les Triplettes de Belleville available for free download on my website, which I'll put in my video description now (can't put it here in a message). Unfortunately I didn't write sheet music for the version I play on this video, which was partly improvised. However, I could always write it down when I have a moment...;)
@@kathrynrenaemetcalf9135 Hello Kathryn, thanks for asking about that. I built a new website a few years ago, and I didn't migrate that page to the new website - sorry about that! However, send me an email and I'll be happy to send you the score. You can email me through my website on the Contact page.
Hi Kim, thanks! Now I'm smiling:) You can download the sheet music from my website, it's free! I only ask that you browse a bit through my site, listen to some tracks from my albums and watch some videos if you want, it's all there. I put the score of Bach à la jazz on the Compositions page - I'm sure you'll find it;)
Dear Matt While still being in Heaven, I wonder if you ever created sheets to the improvisation part of this particular piece? I'd love, with the help of sheets for the improvisation part, to attempt to show classical believers that there are room to improvise. Kind regards Henrik
Hello Tina, thanks for your message. Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see this until now. Yes, in fact I do have sheet music! It's to my original arrangement of this piece that appears on the soundtrack of The Triplets of Belleville, available for free download on my website: mattherskowitz.com. You'll find it on the Compositions page. If you have any problems let me know. Enjoy! matt
Merci Mathieu pour le sentiment! Je ne sais pas comment augmenter le nombre des vues pour mes vidéos, mais j'aimerais bien qu'ils soit vue (bien sur!). Alors, si vous voulez m'aider avec ça, n'hésitez pas!;)
Hi Tania, thanks for asking. I don't have a solo piano score for this version, I only have a solo piano score for the simpler version on the soundtrack of the film Les Triplettes de Belleville. However, I do have a score of this version for flute and piano, and can make a solo piano version from that, which I'll gladly do. It's just a question of time at this point, but I will get on it as soon as possible. I can say that I'll probably have it ready in around a month to 6 weeks from now. You're not the first person to request it, but I see you're a serious musician and I'm happy you're interested in a score of this piece, so I'll get to work on it and will let you know as soon as it's ready :)
the only part I didn't like that begins with 'original' non-improvised version. I believe it should be one way or the other, but not both in the same performance.
