Paul Dukas: L'Apprenti Sorcier (Piano transcription by B.Berrut)
Beatrice Berrut plays her own transcription of Paul Dukas' mind-blowing work, the Sorcerer's Apprentice. Recorded and filmed at Théâtre du Crochetan, Monthey, Switzerland, in June 2024 on a mighty Bösendorfer VC 280.
Cameras: Christian Berrut and Vincent Roch. Sound&editing : Christian Berrut.
The music is based on a poem by Goethe :
"That old sorcerer has vanished
And for once has gone away!
Spirits called by him, now banished,
My commands shall soon obey.
Every step and saying
That he used, I know,
And with sprites obeying
My arts I will show.
Flow, flow onward
Stretches many
Spare not any
Water rushing,
Ever streaming fully downward
Toward the pool in current gushing.
Come, old broomstick, you are needed,
Take these rags and wrap them round you!
Long my orders you have heeded,
By my wishes now I've bound you.
Have two legs and stand,
And a head for you.
Run, and in your hand
Hold a bucket too.
Flow, flow onward
Stretches many,
Spare not any
Water rushing,
Ever streaming fully downward
Toward the pool in current gushing.
See him, toward the shore he's racing
There, he's at the stream already,
Back like lightning he is chasing,
Pouring water fast and steady.
Once again he hastens!
How the water spills,
How the water basins
Brimming full he fills!
Stop now, hear me!
Ample measure
Of your treasure
We have gotten!
Ah, I see it, dear me, dear me.
Master's word I have forgotten!
Ah, the word with which the master
Makes the broom a broom once more!
Ah, he runs and fetches faster!
Be a broomstick as before!
Ever new the torrents
That by him are fed,
Ah, a hundred currents
Pour upon my head!
No, no longer
Can I please him,
I will seize him!
That is spiteful!
My misgivings grow the stronger.
What a mien, his eyes how frightful!
Brood of hell, you're not a mortal!
Shall the entire house go under?
Over threshold over portal
Streams of water rush and thunder.
Broom accurst and mean,
Who will have his will,
Stick that you have been,
Once again stand still!
Can I never, Broom, appease you?
I will seize you,
Hold and whack you,
And your ancient wood
I'll sever,
With a whetted axe I'll crack you.
He returns, more water dragging!
Now I'll throw myself upon you!
Soon, O goblin, you'll be sagging.
Crash! The sharp axe has undone you.
What a good blow, truly!
There, he's split, I see.
Hope now rises newly,
And my breathing's free.
Woe betide me!
Both halves scurry
In a hurry,
Rise like towers
There beside me.
Help me, help, eternal powers!
Off they run, till wet and wetter
Hall and steps immersed are Iying.
What a flood that naught can fetter!
Lord and master, hear me crying! -
Ah, he comes excited.
Sir, my need is sore.
Spirits that I've cited
My commands ignore.
"To the lonely
Corner, broom!
Hear your doom.
As a spirit
When he wills, your master only
Calls you, then 'tis time to hear it.""

Merveilleux….et tellement fantastique…………
Very emotional rendition of a very emotional piano music. Thank you very much! New Sub here.
Liszt aurait applaudi ❤❤❤
😮🇧🇷
Beatrice le ho dedicato altri commenti per altre sue performances in cui ho sempre apprezzato la sua bravura e professionalità. Per non ripetermi, avendo esaurito le espressioni di compiacimento, devo ricorrere a espressioni meno ampollose pur meritandole: semplicemente meravigliosa.
Какое восхитительно прекрасное произведение!Благодарю от всего сердца!❤
Wonderful playing!!
Bravo Beatrice!!! Doble mérito: trabajo y esfuerzo en hacer una transcripción de una obra conocida a este piano Bösendorfer, y una ejecución difícil y arriesgada por el cruce de manos y la serie de acordes con manos separadas. Enhorabuena por tu trabajo y excelente ejecución.
I've listened to soo many piano versions now , I'm trying to learn this piece but I'm a novice I like the playing and the skill but I feel the bass should be soft that's how I hear this in my mind It is One harp playing the bass with the orchestra in the upper violins and middle registers cellos at least that's what I think . Am I wrong?
This is actually my favorite of your performances of Bach/Kempff's Siciliano! The visual of the video is also very beautiful and fitting. Thank you for your exquisite performance.
Please record/film your other transcriptions please!!🙏
Großartig und wunderschön gespielt. Unaufgeregt aber komplett unterschiedlich zur Interpretation von Horowitz, der die einzelnen Stimmen noch expliziter herausholt. Aber diese Version hat etwas besonderes …
Beautiful ❤
*CELESTIAL, MUY SATISFACTORIO Y RELAXING OTHER LEVEL* ❤️🫶🏻💥🎶✨🔥💯☄️🌕❤️
Absolument boulversante!! Extraordinaire et merveilleux Quelle Talent
Otherworldly
Love your arrangement and playing of this piece! It sounds very mysterious and like you can hear the spells being made. Wonderful!
Beautiful! 😊
Je suis envouté par votre musique, vous etes une grande magicienne
Beautiful transcription and piano playing. Well thought-out camera work and excellent sound. Thank you!
Magnifico!!!
This is truly amazing. Not just a dazzling show of fireworks, but your transcription made me listen to 'L'Apprenti' with fresh ears, and what a wonderful work it is! The explosion and elision of themes at around 8'05 is just too good for words. Thank you!!
Dear Beatrice, I have followed your music for many years - this larghetto is simply himmlich in your hands, THANK you!
Una suntuosa pieza orquestal,un poema sinfónico en forma de Scherzo jugeton y endiablado al mismo tiempo, quizás no sea está la mejor partitura para transcribir al piano......pero de todas formas haber tenido el coraje y la valentía de hacerlo a pesar de las evidentes dificultades de todo tipo para traspasar de la orquesta al piano está partitura ya merece todos los elogios.Enhorabuena Beatrice y siempre un placer verte y escucharte.Gracias.
Ah ! Quel bonheur Béatrice de vous retrouver ici en compagnie de votre fidèle Bösendorfer ! Encore une belle transcription que vous nous offrez là. Vous nous devez bien ça, n'est-ce pas, pour compenser vos trop longues absences... Mille fois merci ! Votre pièce m'a inspiré un billet musical autour de "L'apprenti sorcier" que je viens de publier sur mon blog à l'occasion de la Fête de la Musique en France aujourd'hui. France où, comme vous le savez peut-être, les apprentis sorciers n'ont jamais été aussi nombreux... Bien sûr votre vidéo y tient une place d'honneur. Encore merci ! Et merci aux preneurs de son et d'images ! All the best !
Magistral
Beautiful, thanks.
Splendida l'interpretazione e splendido l'arrangiamento 😊
Magnifique et magique bravo Beatrice
Amazing performance, your control over dynamics was very impressive, also a great production in terms of mic positioning.
Gorgeous
Quando Beatrice esegue brani pianistici, che siano di repertorio o sue trascrizioni, provo brividi di emozione. Splendida!
Bravissimaaa… Genio!❤
Отличная транскрипция и великолепное исполнение
Le plaisir de vous retrouver avec une somptueuse transcription … merci !
Comme toujours, parfait😍😍😍 , transcription géniale! Papa Franzi serait admiratif!
Wow, Liszt would surely be smiling. Beautifully crafted and played. So proud of you!
Always love to see a new upload from you! I don't know this piece but this sounds really amazing..
Walt Disney used it for their Fantasia movie! Never seen it? 😊

Fantastic! Is it possible to purchase the score for this transcription?
Beautifully played on a superb instrument. 4th movement was the most enjoyable.
felicitaciones Beatrice.

You are absolutely MAGICAL. This is truly incredible musicianship. Congratulations.
Linda interpretaçao,parabens!!! Um abraço aqui do Brasil!!!!❤
How beautiful this performance is! I keep coming back to this clip.
😉👌🏼 Suena genial para un reel 👍🏼
why did I think it was by Beethoven by just listening to the opening?!
I somehow don't understand Mahler, but I understand the deep feeling of Beatrice. It's from heart and soul and seems without filters.
