ROSSINI The Barber of Seville overture | Nicolas BALDEYROU and friends

- Dear Friends, I hope you’re well ! Today’s video was composed by a composer like no other, who can instantly bring so much joy and hope, the one and only Gioachino Rossini !
Composed in 1816 and premiered in Rome, The Barber of Seville by Gioacchino Rossini established several records:it was composed in only two weeks, by a 24-year old who had already written 16 operas! The music flows forth with breathtaking limpidity. Serenades, duets and ensembles brighten the comedy with vocal flourishes and verbal antics. And yet, the genius of Rossini resides in mastering the physical crescendo, designed to increase tension until the audience is boiling with impatience and ready to explode. The overture immediately offers a surprise: a tutti warns the audience that the show has started and then a delightful melody takes over, is repeated and swells to the breaking point...Laughter and rhythms burst forth and overflow. All the insolence of Beaumarchais’s play is captured in the madcap universe created by Rossini.
In this arrangement, I used all my set of period of the early XIXth century, 2 clarinets in A, 2 clarinets in C, one basset clarinet and one basset horn and of course a beautiful natural horn 🔥 I would like to thank all my super nice and talented friends bringing their period instruments at home to complete the piece: Alexis Kossenko, Gabriel Pidoux, David Douçot d’Ortega, Yann Dubost, Javier Rossetto and Antoine Ganaye 🙏🏼😍✨
I hope you'll like it and don't hesitate to give me ideas 😁
Take care and stay safe! ❤️

But how do you always manage to be so original and innovative? very good, a lot of respect
💙
Thank you so much, I do my best and I’m having so much fun and pleasure to work on these masterpieces :-)))
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 Might you have a plan to ever work on Tannhauser Overture by Wagner in the future 😍😍😍
The Horn solo😍
Thank you Fabrizio ! That was the most difficult part for me 😓😁
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 indeed, my brother and father are both hornist, we said the same...great solo!!!!
@@nicolasahumada thanks to all of you then 😊🥳
Nicolás, je n'ai plus d'adjectifs pour noter l'excellence de vos vidéos. De plus en plus génial.
J'adore la contribution du basson français car pour moi, il ressemble plus à un basson qu'à l'allemand. Il est plus sarcastique, bouffon et farceur. Vous avez de la chance avec vos collègues de l'Orchestre de Radio France.
Je ne voudrais rien de plus que de pouvoir contribuer un jour à l'une de vos vidéos. Voici un clarinettiste qui vous tient en haute estime.
Mille mercis, ça me touche beaucoup !
Italy loves you so much 🇮🇹 💙
Happy to hear that, Italy is my favorite country in the world 😍
I adore classical pieces performed on period instruments.
So do I, thank you so much Jerry !
Dude. How....
Last video when you told me this was going to be the next one, I'm always excited for whatever your next arrangement will be, but honestly I was kind of like "Oh ok, Barber of Seville, cool.", thinking I've heard it so many times and there was not too much more to get out of it.
You totally and utterly shut me down and showed me the fool that I am, and thank you for it. This was SO GOOD! What the hell?!?! It was like hearing it for the first time! Once again your audio quality and mixing is spot on, the arrangement is phenomenal (I really liked how the bass part became WAY more interesting and intense), like... I can keep going on. And will!
I am rhetorically asking why do you all play on freaking period instruments. The sound from them is so good. Is it for authenticity sake? Are you all just so goddamn good on modern instruments that you just want the challenge of making it sound good on old-ass equipment? Are you all a period ensemble? Are you all just wacky and think music in 2021 is played on these relics and don't know they evolved into a modern form? This rhetorical question kind of became several actual questions, pardon me, but please feel free to not answer any of them; I enjoy the instruments greatly.
Your natural horn chops are disgusting, please stop. And for clarification sake, by that I mean keep doing that and incorporate it more. But you know there's also like, a modern horn that is probably WAY easier to play, right?
I'm never going to suggest another piece to you ever again. Let the master work and do your thing, I can't express how much I enjoy everything you do. Thank you.
Oh yeah, and like, the editing of the videos is killer too.
Thank you so much for your comment and happy you enjoyed the video ! I mostly play period instruments for authenticity, getting the original sound of the wind section composers were looking for, also because in my opinion, their sound is mixing better than modern and the balance is much easier and natural, especially for the brass instruments. And it’s also a refreshing challenge for practicing 😁 and last but not least, nobody did that kind of arrangements on period instruments to my knowledge, so I’m happy to explore a new path 🙏🏼😊✨
There are so many wonderful things to compliment. Most of all you are creating a new way to experience great music for new audiences.
I truly appreciate, thank you so much !
Bellisimo que gusto escuchar maestrosssss
Great work with the horn too!!! It is absolutely splendid. And the sound of period instruments is so beautiful too, more mellow and natural. Amazed as always
Thank you so much Moises !
Hi Nicolas, what instrument do you play?
Nicolas: Yes
Was that a lip trill on the horn?
And... what instrument do you not play ;-)) !!!???
Nicolas: *It's* *complicated.*
Thank you Jay ! It’s definitely a lip trill ! No other choice on a natural horn 😓
All the strings 😁
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 If you learn oboe, bassoon and double bass you could do the Gran Partita yourself!!!!!
De mieux en mieux, de + en + grandiose ! Marrant d'avoir laissé la scène où le trompettiste vide son eau pendant votre super solo au cor naturel !
Merci Jean-Claude ! J’avoue que j’ai bien rigolé quand j’ai découvert aussi donc je l’ai laissé 😁
Congratulations to Nicolas and all the friends. Is nice to see you playing together. I'll hope you do more videos together, you are amazing.
Thank you so much :-)) it’s a great team, I’m very lucky !
W il cornista Nicolas !!! ... virtuoso clarinettista !
Thank you Giuseppe ! French horn is my second instrument ;-))
With music like this, one can only be well ! Thank you to all the very talented players for this musical treat. Kudos to you for the not-so-simple horn part and the tasty slap additions (Rossini might very well have loved it).
My suggestion of the week is to do a clarinet quartet's version of Scriabin's Sonata-Fantaisie in G# Minor (the one composed in 1886 when he was only 14, not the Sonata No.2 Op.19 which bears the same name).
Thank you Philippe for your kind words and your nice suggestions ! I’m going to listen to this sonata right now !
Sólo queda quitarse el sombrero ante todos ustedes por regalarnos periódicamente estas maravillosas pinceladas musicales con tanta maestría. Soy un fan incondicional vuestro.
Thank you so much Paco !
Always the most amazing videos out there! Your playing and editing are spectacular. Your colleagues too!! I can’t imagine the hours to make a production this fantastic. 👏👏🎶🎵🦙🦙🦙🦙
Thank you so much dear Cathy ! 2 weeks of intensive work 😓😁
"BRAVISSIMO👍".
Not only can you and all your friends play with such talent, you put so much hard work into the editing and arranging the pieces and they are so fun to watch and visually pleasing as well! Bravo to you and your friends!
I’m so glad you enjoy it, thank you for your kind words !
Primo corno super solo👍🥇🔝
Merci beaucoup !!!
Wow, each one is more amazing than the last! The technique required for those period instruments is wild. LOL at the little shaving cameo. Thanks as always for sharing such fine creations with us!
Thank you Alex, appreciated ! 🙏🏼😊✨✨
I love the guy looking in while shaving! BTW nice hand horn technique.
Thank you so much Dave !
Bravo !
Respect for your natural trills and hand technique from a hornist, neat! (and especially your clarinet articulation, very rarely seen so precise)
From a hornist, I truly appreciate, thank you so much !
So much fun watching this!!!!
Thank you Pedro !
Maravillosa la sonoridad de los instrumentos originales❤️ ¡qué hábil con la trompa natural! 😮
Muchas gracias Jesús ! 🙏🏼🙏🏼😊✨
Bravo, a fantastic performance! We now know you are not only a brilliant clarinetest, arranger and video editor but also a star on the natural horn. I loved it.
Thank you so much Steve ! I’m also happy that it was a recording, I guessed I needed 10 times to do the horn solo properly 😱😂
This is amazing on so many levels, I just finished my clarinet Grade 3 exam and got my results back. I hope and can play as well as you one day.
Thank you ! Did you get the result you expected ? 🤞🏻
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 nope I got a distinction :) I’m really happy!
@@EggTan bravo ! 💪🏻
Divino. Maravilhoso. Inspirador. 🥰

Don’t let it go to your head people yes you’re very talented but I’m only subscribing because of Nicholas’ haircut! There! Bravo!🤣🙏🏻🙏🏻
4:03 top right! Very sneaky 😮 Also I love the tambre you guys get from all those beautiful instruments, truly lovely
Bravo Ian ! you can still find another old Rossini somewhere :-)))
BRAVO!!! A true masterpiece of all the players, by the way just put together during a morning shaving session in the red checkered shirt :) cool... I like that :)
Thank you so much Hector!
As talented as you are as an instrumentalist, I would not doubt you ALSO are the arranger of all these pieces. Just, WOW. I am dumbfounded and blown away by your talent and this performance. 🤯
Very nice period instruments and very nice team.

If you could see us here in the "states" (US) as we watch and share your spectacular videos--- We absolutely love your excellence and artistry, not to mention your charming demeanor. From a mostly retired but always practicing professional clarinetist, Bravo, bravo, bravo.
Bravo! Bravo to you and your friends!!! They became an orchestra by changing and wearing different clothes, you guys are too much. Bravo! Bravo!
Muy lindo, una sonoridad majestuosa unida a una visual única que da gran realse a esta Obertura.
Incredible
Thank you Helano !
You know that this is Bugs Bunny music, don’t you? This is exquisite. Love it.
Quelle merveille................ C'est de plus en plus époustouflant ET BEAU !! Merci Nicolas.
Merci Thibaut !
Bravo! Wonderful arrangement and marvelous performance, on period instruments!!! Loved the shaving cameo (easter egg?) at 2:30. Great video editing too!! 🙂
I can't believe that you are a world class clarinettist AND can not only play but lip trill on hand horn . I take off my hat to you sir!
Thank you so much! 😊🙏🏼🔥
Amazing ! This word only partually describs a level of MASTERY !
You MAESTRO and your COLLEGUES are professionals every musician should strive for .

Joy for ears and eyes. I hope one day I can try one of these traditional instruments. They look vulnerable.
Please do if you have the occasion 🤩 the most difficult is to come back to modern afterwards...
Simply WONDERFUL 👌💥🔝
You're so fantastic !! GRAZIE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you ever been to Andalousie, Nicolas? You are more than invited.
As always, outstanding performance! Merci beaucoup mon ami!
Thank you ! I’ve been there long ago for clarinet competition... but I’ll come back for sure !
What an amazing way to start a glorious sunny day here in Washington State! Beautifully played!
Lindo! E com direito à expressões faciais!!!!👏👏👏😀
What can I add in the comments! Just another hit by Nicolas and friends 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you Orlando ! I truly appreciate !
😍beautiful, you sound like your inside a dream , you are definitely the best clarinettists in the world 🌍 🎼🎼🎼🎵🎵🎵🎵
Happy that you like it, thank you !
Bravissimo. Abrazos desde Trujillo Perú 🇵🇪
Muchas gracias Edwin !
Dear Nicolas,
I discovered you a couple of weeks ago, looking for a recording of the Gade pieces. Actually it was quite frustrating until I found yours.
Meanwhile I'm just more then deeply impressed by your easyness and your musicality, including the recordings with your class.
If I'd be young I would try very hard to be accepted in your class. I'm a decend clarinetplayer and solo-clarinettist in a middle sized german opera orchestra, but what you are doing with all kind of clarinets (and I don't want to mention the Horn, especially in the Barber) is just incredible and I would not have thought possible. You are finally somebody who can hold on with Louis Cahuzac.
What you do is, what I call clarinetplaying. I bow deeply before you. Please go on.
Oh, and I love your humor!
Thank you so much for your kind words Günter, I truly appreciate!
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 and you take the time to answer all the comments. When do you sleep?
Fantastique! Je crois que c´ést plus difficile de jouer avec des instruments de l'epoque qui avaient une machanique plus simple que aujourd'hui, sourtout la corne naturel encore plus difficile donc vous jouez, un de ces jours je vous vois jouer du trombone aussi, essayez, Felicitations pour toutes, vous et votre amis.
Argh le trombone c’est beaucoup plus difficile pour moi, je vais déjà continuer à travailler la clarinette et le cor 😅😁 merci beaucoup en tout cas !
The horn solo was so good it’s insane🤯
Thank you Ricky !
Super beau !! ❤
Muito legal 😎
Muito obrigado !
Wonderful music expressions, talented musicians.
Fall in love with this
So happy about that 🙏🏼😊✨
Excelente como siempre, además muy buen arreglo del tema. Bravo Bravo !!!
Muchas gracias Daniel !
Bravo à tous pour ce moment musical et continuez à ne pas trop vous prendre au sérieux.
Mille mercis Eric !
Thank You !!! Brilliant , Love it !!!
Thank you very much David !
Hi Nicolas, excellent as usual! (an euphemism...)
One of the location is the 'Teatro Farnese' in the Palazzo Pilotta in Parma? ....astonishing Teatro, that I visited years ago, and which could inspire you to an arrangement of Monteverdi or music of the Seventeenth Century...(at any rate you could play any baroque instruments...😁😁) see you soon!
Absolutely Giuseppe, this is the treatro Farnese ! I went there last summer and I loved the place. I love Monteverdi but I should find the adequate instruments then 😓😁
Gratulation, all your Music is incredible good! And as a Professional Bassoon Player, I cannot imagine, how to play Clarinet and Horn and both at this Level! I Love your Channel.😀🎵👍
Thank you so much ! 🙏🏼😊✨
Lovely.
Outstanding.
The bass viol looked different -- more cello-like.
Nice to see the baroque instruments.
Thank you very much Richard !
👍👍👍👍👍👍😊 What a slap?!! 😀
The best to fit with the pizz 😁 thank you !
Very very very good choiche, and an astounding performance! Bravo bravissimo! I especially love those particulars like Rossini sitting in the stalls to hear you, and Tintin in the jar...
Thank you Guido ! And happy you noticed these small details ! 🙏🏼🔥
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 I'll look at the video again and again to discover other details - and to enjoy Rossini music and the beautiful way you play it. Merci.
The quality is even better than so many Orchestras I have heard! Bravo, Maestro! Do you think you will one day do the full Rossini Introduction, Theme, and Variations? I think you did the last variation on the channel and it was so exquisite, and this video reminded me of that. Also, how is the period clarinet to play? Is the embouchre different?
Thank you ! Doing the whole Rossini would be a very good idea indeed ! Normally the embouchure was completely different, double lip and mouthpiece inverted with the reed up. But I’m not ready for such a big change 😅😁
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 wow, reed facing up? I can't imagine how to play that 😂.
Wow great video by great Musicians! Thank you so much for your Work! I love that and also your interpretation as always!
Thank you so much :-))
Loved the "flying bassoon reed" ahahah
Amazing video as always 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Luis :-))
