- Who is more modern: Handel or Bach? This question was already being asked in the eighteenth century. Bach was often regarded as skilful but old-fashioned, and Handel as more progressive. However, this idea is contradicted in the first movement of this Sonata in G major, performed by Reitze Smits for All of Bach. The monophonic opening by the two upper parts and the uncomplicated harmony are supremely modern. The elegant first movement and the complex chromatic rhythms of the second movement are followed by an ending that combines elements of both. Modern - yet unmistakeably Bach.

Netherlands Bach Society do you have any planning to create another channel called 'Netherlands Handel Society'? And this channel only play Handel music. because seems you have many authentic baroque instruments. I just want to know what is the difference in between of the Bach and Handel orchestra and what instruments of Handel orchestra would used?
I published my first prelude & fugue. Bach my number one inspiration.
@@johntaliaferrothompson6052спасибо. Слушаю с большим удовольствием.
Благодарю за эту возможность.
Удачи вам!

Thanks for not editing out the mechanical tracker sounds. Not just beautiful music but amazing 18th century technology.
Oh, I thought those were the pedals. Neat.
18th century are the times when machine makes you workout
Yes, amen, I love hearing those tracker boards clapping!
How on earth would one edit them out anyway?
How could the tracker noises bedited out?
Thewer tracker organs I have played are surprisingly quiet.
Unsteadyvind is a defect which should be corrected.
The first theme of the second movement remembers the one that Bach employed in the aria "Erbarme" of the St.-Matthew's Passion.
Disappointing that there is no audience for this phenomenal performance from one of my newly favorite performers.
So proud of our wonderful Neighbours, the best Baroque musicians and Bach interpreters in the world today. Greetings from Münster, Germany!
Thank heavens for music (Bach) to bring neighbours back into harmony.
I totally agree.....Netherlands Bach society's has to be the world,s best in interpreting and performing our Beloved Bach. Thankyou for nightly providing me with music....free and better than any medication.! At the end of a stressfull day this music from heaven always calms my soul and gives me strength to carry on.Thankyou. so very much,. Elaine .....Wales.
Beautiful performance. 👍❤️
Bach's Trio Sonatas for organ are treacherous jewels (and this one is one of the more difficult !) - there's absolutely nowhere to hide !
Indeed!!!!!
Played wonderfully by Mr. Smits.
Nowhere near as difficult as some of the preludes and fugues.
@@organboi if you're talking about organ prelude and fugues yes, but these are still at the top of the difficulty when it comes to Bach's organ repertoire.
Congratulations, Dr. Smits, for one of the best performances I heard of this difficult sonata. The third movement is just an explosion of beauty and joy! I always marvel at how Bach could weave and create these monuments of perfection and mathematical precision, while at the same time touching the very soul of the listener. Immortal, everlasting talent. Thanks again!
Playing with both hands and both feet at the same time, this is truly amazing!
This speaks to my soul. So beautiful and calming. I love that you can hear the instrument ‘working’. Thank you.
The sequence at 3:16 - Enlightenment achieved.
Loved the music, the registration, the performance, the videography. All of it!
It's SO nice to see all "the parts", close up, just as we hear them. Thank YOU !
Les sonates pour orgue de Bach ont accompagné une bonne partie de ma vie, dans d'innombrables versions! Celle -ci sort du lot, et de loin !! Merci mille fois, Reitze Smits, pour l'ensemble de vos enregistrements et interprétations, si justes, si authentiques et sensibles....sans sensiblerie.
Exquisite expression with clarity and precision - thank you, Reitze Smits. Ditto to hearing the action on this Schnitger gem. Love that you all again used the "lens thru the trackers" view!
Such a wondufull piece multiplied with a great organist is warming up my heart!
The best addiction The humanity have ever known... The BACHISM.
You are resting in peace definitely Herr BACH 😇🥰
Bach and me go way back.
Bach-addiction? :D

As an admirer of genius Bach, I was inspired to publish my first prelude and fugue.
This is such a wonderful sonata! the 6 organ sonata are truly wonderful music.
Unique and beautiful at uncommon levels of detail and depth of viewing the landscape of the symphony.
Gorgeous sound, earthy, organic, real. And the interpretation is, per usual, stellar. Risky flying a drone indoors but great rewards.
I get amazed time and time again by the incredibly clean and refined counterpoint of these trio sonatas.
Yes, absolutely !
Excellent! On one of the pearls of the Groningen organ paradise.
Simply amazing. Schnitger’s organ is absolutely perfect for this piece.
Sure
Splendida esecuzione di uno dei brani a mio giudizio più difficili da interpretare correttamente di tutta l'opera per organo di Bach. Davvero coinvolgente.
A very beautiful Bach Sonata
wonderfully played🍃
Merci à la NBS depuis la France!
Je vous regarde souvent et je reçois à travers vous la sérénité de Bach don le monde a tant besoin.
Grande qualité d'interprétation avec de belles d'images…
What else?
Someday when you record them all I will wait eagerly to buy the full audio collection
Just breathtaking!!! Thank you so much Reitze Smits for this wonder!
Triosonata van bach blijven intrigeren. Grote bewondering voor organisten als deze die deze goed en samenhangend kunnen spelen.

Ovo je izuzetno. Volim orgulje i uživam u Bahovoj muzici. Hvala
Another absolutely magnificent performance. Exceptionally well played. Thank you for all of the many hours that went into practicing and preparing for this video recording. Well done!
Wunderschöne und detaillierte Aufführtung dieser ein bisschen chromatisch doch perfekt komponierten Tastensonate im gut analysierten Tempo mit durchsichtigen doch etwas warmherzigen Tönen der historischen und ausgezeichenten Orgel. Wahrlich intelligenter und genialer Organist!
Höre ich da "ein bisschen" Kritik heraus? Uiuiui.
So magnificent. Nothing quite like the Trio Sonatas. I especially love this one.
What a wonderful video! I have no experience with the organ, so it was amazing to be able the view the organist's playing in such nice detail.
Sehr schön interpretiert! Leichtes, flockiges Spiel v.a. an den schweren Stellen 🙂
Wonderful performance of a truly miraculous piece of music.
What a wonderful performance!
EJECUTOR BRILLANTE. BRAVO SMITS. GRACIAS
Gyönyörű zene kitűnő előadásban! Köszönöm a föltöltést!
Wonderful music, and a superb performance. Thank you Reitze.
Toujours aussi merveilleux une prière à Dieu pour le remercier d être ce que nous sommes des êtres de chairs et de sang très pronfonde gratitude merci pour ce post ou la prière se mêle à la musique classique merci infiniment pronfonde gratitude merci
In my mind Bach could just do whatever he pleased, he could even compose the 9th Symphony, it's just that he didn't care. He just wanted to compose exactly what he composed.
A little fanciful I think.. :)
Beethoven composed his 9th symphony almost 75 years after Bach's death. It would be accurate to say Bach was familiar with the stylistic trends of his time. But surely, he could not have composed in a style that would not exist until more than half a century after his death.
Huh???
@@herrickinman9303 Correct.
Far from being old-fashioned Bach was prophetic of everything that was to come; parts of the Fantasia in G minor are pure Franck.
Always liked to think he was superficially conservative, but his music is timeless.
And its not only Franck, sometimes he sounds like Wagner and Mahler and even Schoenberg in some fleeting moments of extreme tonal ambiguity and chromaticism
Bach explored many harmonic worlds that others would discover.
Sonata inspiradora e interpretação maravilhosa, gostei muito de ouvir , ganhei o dia
Bach faz a vida melhor!
Sublime!
Wat een fantastische uitvoering! Prachtig orgel natuurlijk
A lovely piece and a wonderful performance. I love how the bass progresses in part 2, always gives me the chills. This is one of my favourite trio sonatas by Bach. The other ones are 5, 3, 1, 2, 4---somewhat in that order ;)
Excellent performance
Love this one!!
Great!
Now waiting for 529 eagerly!
Inspiring music for a cloudy morning
C'est magique ! Et tellement bien filmé !❤️🙏
Idéal pour se réveiller en douceur et commencer sereinement sa journée.
Ontzettend mooi uitgevoerd op een fantastisch orgel!
Wonderful interpretation and instrument!
Ganz großartig, durchweg durchdachte Artikulation. Vielen Dank
Magnifique ! Bravo !
Simply magnificent ! Thanks !
This is beautiful and forgive me, the organist is so cute.
If you think this organist Is cute, then perhaps you will find organist Matthias Havinga drop-dead gorgeous.
He is! :D
Es bonito y está bien grabado.
My favorite Gmajor!
Bravissimo!

I love BACH !!!!
Prachtig qua uitvoering en registratie

Excelente, muy buena.
Looking forward to commentary from Smits!
wow, I wish I could play like that....
Organ sounds amazing.
Amanzing!!! If the violin was playing, he should play to random like no rhythm...why? Look so perfect when the music has rhythm more as possible, we can show the frases but rhythm can show the beauty of music! Congratulations amanzing.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get a high quality (lossless) audio version of these recordings?
COOL
Really love the registration of the first movement. What stops are being used? The tone of the organ is so beautiful.
Thank you for your compliment. In answer to your question: we never note the stops used in a shot, so we don't know.
👌

OH YES! Tio sonata! I hope you upload them ALL :-)
BWV 525, 526 and 527 are already shared.
So BWV 528 and 529 yet to come.
Erg mooi👌
Very Good Video, i love you Content!
On peut aisément comprendre pourquoi certains parlent de 5ème. évangile
My Brazilian colleague Calimerio Soares told me once that for him a real organist is the one that plays fluently all Bach's six trio-sonatas with the repetitions when indicated besides the movements without repetitions.
1:30 Was that the Fidirallala-motif from the children's song Die Vogelhochzeit?
Immagino questa sonata una volta trasferita per gruppo orchestrale barocco...💥
I want to know why those 21 people dislike this?
I just cant understand
I mean maybe because of the sounds and noises of the mechanic
@@timbauer1618 Well... ain't that a pitty?
@@gavincannon8385 yeah
@@gavincannon8385 i personally like those noises

I'd love to be that good at playing large church pipe organs. I guess I'll have to be content with playing Bach on my classical guitar. Not too bad. Some don't get to play at all.
Is he playing from a handwritten facsimile?

With all due respect - I think that the question who is more modern: Handel or Bach? (in your info, section) is not relevant, especially when dealing with Bach's music which is beyond all time! Anyway, the performance of this most beautiful Sonata is excellent! Bravo! Thanks NBS for uploading.

What are the dots on the keys for?
They are little wooden nails.
To play dominoes.
@@stephenkrahn7187 Ha-ha, just what I was thinking.
Subliem!!
🌈💗🌈💗🌈💗.
To be honest, thinking Handel to be more progressive than Bach is completely wrong in my opinion. That's like comparing classical composers from the Mannheim school with Beethoven. Handel wrote nice music, but mostly not nearly as complex as Bach's. He used a much easier musical language. Bach often wrote extremely complex, dissonant harmony (Bwv 542 Fantasia, Bwv 544, 548) and used a lot of chromaticism. You will also find a very complicated counterpoint (especially his late works) and much more difficult and progressive rhythm. I think he really was predecessor of composers like Beethoven, Brahms, Reger or Liszt.
Max Reger has said it already: "Bach ist Anfang und Ende aller Musik"..
@@andre26071955 Right!
I guess that what they wanted to write is that Handel wrote more "fashionable" music whereas Bach didn't care. But here Bach wrote music in which he combines simple elegance with complex contrapoint, pleasing both the superficial and the experienced music lover.
@@andre26071955 and Beethoven said "Handel is the greatest composer that ever lived... I would uncover my head and kneel down on his tomb". And Bach himself was an admirer of Handel (and of other composers as Fux, Caldara and many others). More seriously, Bach, Handel, Rameau and many others are different and have their own qualities. I can understand some people prefer to limit themselves to Bach, seems more close to our contemporary world in some ways.
Sounds like A-flat

Welchen Charme die Trio-Sonaten doch gerade auf diesen kleinen Orgeln entfalten.

Not in G!
Who is 'more modern' is academic when Handel generally wrote the better music of the two
Exuberant playing, exceptional clarity, brilliant registration!
But! There is SOMETHING MISSING!
And thank Heaven it is missing.
Notes inegales! Every Clavicinist on this channel shoves that phoney, ruinous crap down our throats. The keyboard Partitas, English and French Suites, Toccatas WTC I & II, Italian Concerto and Goldberg Variations are all butchered by this nauseating French practice.
@Lyle Waller Why would you; Mike is the only idiot around here.
