CHOPIN Etude opus 25 n2 | Nicolas BALDEYROU

- Dear Friends, as I got many demands, today’s video is a new Chopin study ! I chose to play the Etude opus 25 n2 sometimes known as « the bees » and it’s a very special one for me as it was the only one I could (badly) play during my piano studies 😁 it may sound easy on the piano but it’s surprisingly tricky for the legato, the thumb work and the global polyrythm between the two hands.
What I found really interesting is that you get almost the same difficulties on the clarinet ! Synchronisation between the two hands, legato control, working on not raising the fingers to save energy and gain precision, equilibrating registers and finally trying to reach a good tempo approaching my favorite version by Maurizio Pollini 😅
I chose to set the action in George Sand’s house in Nohant where Chopin spent a lot of time, I hope you can imagine the composer writing some of his greatest masterpieces within these walls.
As I often get questions about my clarinets (which I don’t own unfortunately) and setups, here are all informations :
- 1st clarinet Buffet prototype in mopani (Vandoren BD5, V12 3,5 reed, Vandoren Optimum ligature)
- 2nd clarinet Buffet Légende in boxwood
- Bass clarinet Buffet Tosca 1195R (Vandoren B40, V12 3,5 reeds, Vandoren Optimum ligature).
I hope you'll like it and don't hesitate to give me ideas 😁
Take care and stay safe! ❤️

I'm a simple guy. I see Nicolas upload, I click.
I truly appreciate, thank you Raymond !
You play the clarinet with such skill and grace you're doing things I can only dream of. Legendary performance!
Thank you so much ! And thank you again for inspiring me to okay Chopin :-)))
:-)))
How many years does it take to get like this? 😏
I tried practicing 2-3 days in a row, for the first time since 1995 and my bottom lip started feeling funny. 😑
The man. The myth. The legend. Nicolas Baldeyrou!!!!!
😁 only my clarinets are legend ! Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼✨😊
as a clarinet and piano player I can say that it sounds better than the original piano version! Very colourful and we hear the musical structure, magnifique!
What a wonderful compliment , thank you so much !
Seigneur,c'est juste magnifique.
Chopin.
Mon compositeur préféré au piano transposé à la clarinette.
Quelle belle interprétation que vous nous avez fait là...
De la haute couture.
J'admire votre travail Nicolas.
Fidèle à vous même.
Encore du Chopin, s'il vous plaît...
Merci une fois de plus pour votre partage.
Mille mercis à nouveau :-)) il y aura du Chopin dans l’avenir c’est promis !
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 Merci🙏😉
As a challenge : playing the entire 2nd movement of the 5th symphony by Tchaikovsky (with the beautiful horn solo at the beginning 😍)
It would be a little bit long to edit but what a great idea, love that solo 🤩✨
Chopin, enfin aux clarinettistes! Il fallait y penser et surtout pouvoir le faire, que du bonheur!
Merci encore infiniment.
Dominique
Mille mercis Dominique ! Toutes ses pièces ne s’y prêtent pas mais quel plaisir ✨
I love how he plays that Chopin etude on his clarinets while there’s a piano in the background just cuz he can
Chapeau bas, votre Chopin mériterait une chopine avec des bulles pas dans une chope ni au fond d'une échoppe, mais au milieu d'un grand chapiteau pour vous majesté de la clarinette que l'on rêve de voir et d'écouter en live et presentiel car vous nous êtes essentiel, alors chapeau cher maître. Mon chat en aurait la chair de poule et miaulerai encore de buis ou d'ébène, et puis pour finir il sourit...
Mille mercis, alors je valide la chopine de bulles 😇
Keep the Chopin coming!!!! Love his music, AND YOUR ARRANGEMENTS!!!!
❤️❤️❤️ Beautiful playing as always
Thank you so much Isaac !
Wonderful as always!
Thanks so much !
CZcams hasn't shown any your video's on my feed for while. Love your work.
Thanks so much ! I really don’t this algorithms work...
Beautiful job, as always! Very good.
Thanks so much for your support :-)))
chopin à la clarinette! ça c'est un défi!!! Bravo! Magnifique Légato!
Mille mercis !
hi Nicholas! I am a clarinetist and pianist and your videos are amazing. I would to recommend Chopin Etude Op. 25 No.1. That would be awesome!!!
Thank you Adrian ! You mean the Aeolian harp study ? I love it 🤩
Beautiful music maestro and lovely back drop! Well done 👍
Thank you so much Julie !
WOW!! BRAVO!!! Chopin would be proud
Thank you so much, I hope so even if Chopin didn’t like arrangements of his music so much 😁
I may not be first,
but I'm not last.
I see new amazing videos,
I click fast.
Thanks so much, I truly appreciate !
Beautiful! You never fail to amaze me with your tone and interpretation. I also play clarinet (badly, unlike you) and horn and definitely remember struggling through Chopin études on piano. It would be awesome if you preformed Rachmaninov’s Moment Musical no. 4 in e minor. It would fit your tone and style so nicely!
Thank you so much Kristin ! And I never thought this moment musical but what a great idea ! Ok it’s crazy difficult but I will look at the score, I hope it’s possible to play !
AWESOME!!!! The phrasing is awesome!
Thank you !!!!
Wow! Another amazing performance! I just got back from Solo/Ensemble myself. Played Five Bagatelles by Gerald Finzi, first and third movement.
Oh I love these pieces ! Hope you enjoyed ! Thank you for your kind words
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 I very much enjoyed! You give be motivation to practice!
Brilliant!! 👍👍👍
Thank you so much !
magnifque interprétation de Chopin, j'entends le chant d'une source qui coule, vive et sereine. Que c'est beau à la clarinette, Chopin ! Encores et encores !
Mille mercis Emmanuel !
Wow, Nicolas! Always "superbe"! 🤗😍
Thank you Ana !!! 😊✨
Nicolas makes everything facile. Bravo! 👏
Only from outside 😁 thank you very much Kenneth !
Absolutely stunning
Thank you so much !
What a lovely video! I wish I could sound that smooth on my violin! 😉
I’m sure you can ! Thank you so much Saskia 😊✨🙏🏼
Really beautiful 😍 please keep your amazing videos coming whilst we are all in lockdown.
Thank you Charlene, I’ll do my best !
How lovely to see this in the Nohant location. As a clarinettist and pianist it is a place of pilgrimage for me and my wife. Wonderful playing as always! Buffet should really just give you these instruments - you've earnt them!
Magnifique ! Incroyable !! C'est beau !! 😍😍😍
Merci !!!
Mille mercis 🤩🤩😊🙏🏼
Absolutely incredible that you would attempt this on a clarinet - so amazingly well done. Glad you mentioned Pollini - no-one can touch his rendition of the Chopin studies!
I totally agree ! Thank you for your kind words 🙏🏼😊✨
Whenever I need a reminder of how effortless a run of notes on the clarinet should sound, I come watch one of your vids!
Thank you so much Elise!
That was AMAZING ! It is so wonderful and beautiful. And all those high notes must be so difficult to do!
Thank so much Mathys ! You’re right, the high register is definitely tricky but it made me find some interesting fingerings 😁
I was very good and impressed👏I like Mr.Nicola's sound the most🥰I will continue to wait for posts☺️
Thank you so much !
Ahhh i love that! Don't know why I haven't done that already haha but now there I got the Inspiration. Thanks!!!!
Thanks so much ! Yes you should it 💪🏻
Bravo!!! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Merci !
Une fois de plus, les bras m'en tombent !
Bravo, vraiment 👏💫
Mille mercis 😊🔥🙏🏼
Beautiful arrangement!!
Thank you so much !
Just spectacular playing, as always. I love George Sands house as the background. Great choice. What a beautiful piece! You capture the piano technique perfectly. 👏👍🎶🎼💕
Thank you dear Cathy ! I like very much the atmosphere of this house too 🤩✨
Please continue the Chopin etudes Serie😍😍😍 I love it
What about op 10 no 5? Is it too much for the clarinet?
I should give a try but it’s going quite high and fast but who knows 😁 thanks for the proposition !
I’m really if you like it, I love Chopin too 🤩
Beautiful! Can't wait to show to my 6th grade beginner clarinets!
Thank you Pablo, hope they’ll like it !
Awesome playing! Truly inspiring! 👍🏴
Thank you Robert !
Legendary!
Thank you Manuel !
Ojalá llegue a ser un clarinetista como el gran Nicolás!!!
Thank you Kenneth !
IMPRESIONANTE!!!!!!!🤴🤴🤴ERES EL REY!!!!🤴🤴🤴👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Happy Heavenly Birthday 211th Monsieur Frédéric Chopin 🎁🎂🎉😍🎼🎹

It's absolutelly amazing. 👏👏👏
Love from Slovakia 🇸🇰
Thank you Ladislav !
Ça coule de source ! Quelle précision. 👏👏👏🎩 Bravo.
Mille mercis !
Wow!Fantasticooooo!!
Thank you Marco !
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 maestro come lo studia lo staccato semplice? Qualche consiglio? Grazie mille!!!
Bravó Maestro!!!!
Thank you! 🙏🏼😊
About 20 years ago I was able to play a rosewood Buffet Festival prototype. I fell in love with it...and they never produced them! I am still heartbroken! “The Bees” is the perfect name for that piece. It really reminds me of Flight of the Bumblebees, but different.
We’re trying so many different woods by Buffet, maybe they will be a limited edition in rosewood in the future, who knows ! And the mopani is also very interesting
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 The Mopani intrigues me! I never even heard of that wood before you mentioned it in your information. I can imagine that it must be fun to be able to try out all of these instruments.
Bravo 👏
Thank you ! 🙏🏼😊✨
C'est fantastique!
Merci Michele !!!
The best as always ❤️hope I will meet you one day 🙏🤞🥰
For sure, as soon as we can travel again, thank you !
Super!! Bravo maestro!!
Thank you James !!!
Precioso! Bravo maestro👏👏👏👏😎
Merci Juanma !
perfect!!
Thank you !
Qué bonito suena ese estudio para piano con tres clarinetes. Una delicia!
Muchas gracias Mercedes !
Quelle fluidité dans le legato, c'est aérien et juste merveilleux, bravo !
Merci beaucoup !
Another great performance. Congratulations again Nicolas.
Thank you again for your kind words 😊✨🙏🏼
Thank you for another musical gem showing that your stratospheric technique is always serving an equally beautiful sound and artistic taste.
For a new idea, I suggested a challenge piece in my comment to your last video. Have a look, you might like it: it is beautiful, has never been recorded in its original form, and I can only see you mastering it on the clarinet.
Thank you very much for your kind words and the proposition Philippe !
Amazing
Thank you Matthew :-))
Amazing! I was really, really moved! I love his play!
Thank you Chikako !
So beautiful. What a nice surprise today!
Thank you for your support Bea !
Your playing is so inspiring, thank you for upload this great work!
Thank you so much !
Absolutely brilliant, very good and please can you play chopin op 10 n1
Thank you ! I tried but too many high notes I can’t reach in the clarinet 😞
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 I got it, but thank you very much for replying to my comment.
Amazing transcription and great playing!
I don't hesitate to give a new idea - what about Fryderyk Chopin, Prelude d - minor Op.28 nr 24? :-)
Thank you Piotr, I love it too ! I put on my wish list 😁✨🙏🏼
Awesome playing!
Thank you very much !
Vreaiment très chouette denouveau !! Quelle délicatesse
Merci beaucoup Benjamin !
fantástico, soberbo, ímpar, parabéns!
Muito obrigado !
This is tooo good...I wanna hear the chromatic etude(op 10 no 2) and the horseman etude(op 25 no 3)pleeeease❤️❤️❤️
Spettacolare!!!!!!!! Come vorrei sapere quei professori che mettono il pollice giù chi sono...
This is magnificent!!!!
Thank you ! 🙏🏼😊✨
técnica ilimitada!! es increible
Merci Manu !!!
Fantastic!
Thank you !
Great! I think a rendition of the op. 25, no. 6 etude would sound great (possibly problematic to keep the thirds in sync though). Would love to see you give it a shot.
Thank you Toma, it’s definitely a very good idea ! I’m working on a Rachmaninov at the moment, too many pieces I want to arrange 😱😁
All in due time, keep it up!
sometimes it's hard to find the words....amazing.
Thank you so much Leonard !
Amazing, Franche clarinet school is the best
Thank you so much !
Bravi!👏🏼👍🏼✊
Thank you !
Guten Tag Herr Baldeyrou. Bitte spielen Sie mal Etüde #2 opus 8 von A. Skrjabin.
F-sharp minor
Very good idea, love the piece!
Wow, nice!
Thank you Saul !
It’s not #buffetlegende, it’s #NicolasBaldeyrouLegende. Absolutely stunning.
Hahaha, thank you so much dear Zisl !! 😁🙏🏼😊🙏🏼✨
Sick....
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😊✨
Soooo amazing!! magnificent!
curiously, how did you match the tempo without any earphone? and even the tempo rubatos! so Mysterious!
I think you must have couple of your clones for the ensemble! >
Thank you ! I have an earphone but only for 2nd clarinet and bass, the solo was recorded first :-) and it’s a model so tiny you can’t see it !
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 thank you for the advise~! I'd never seen such a perfect ensemble! The world best players playing ensemble!
I can't wait for your next video!
👏👏👏👏👏
Show. 👏👏👏👏🍾
Thank you Paul !
I like this abstract etude. And I like your Version = ) PS: Which microphone do you use to record?
Thank you ! I used a zoom H4n for this one :-))
Vivaldi's Concerto in B minor "Op. 3 No. 10 - RV 580" please
That’s a great idea 🤩 I keep it in mind, thank you very much !
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 Thank you, I can hear you playing with 4 clarinets. Appreciate for the uploads we really enjoy a lot !!
point faible : trop fort !!
😁🙏🏼✨
Bitte spielen Sie mal Etüde #8 opus 8 von Skrjabin.
Very good idea!
Grandissimo. Posso sapere con che becco suoni?
It’s a BD4 vandoren !
So when do we get Chopin's winter wind etude?😉
Hahaha I thought exactly the same, practiced it but there are too many things in the very high register, and I guess it would be a pity to octaviate a lot of the right hand, but I’m still looking for solutions 😄
Such great tone! How do you achieve that?
Thank you so much ! Good clarinet, good mouthpiece and 32 years of practice I would say 😁
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 hahah you must be the ling ling of clarinet!
Not a drop of tension anywhere in your body: a consummate clarinettist.
Thank you so much! A long way to get rid of tensions even if it’s not perfect…
@@nicolasbaldeyrou1 ⚘
🧠+🫀=🎼🎵🎶
any possibility for a collaboration with Philippe Berrod
Du tonnerre de Brest!
Merci Thierry !
Come qualità e proiezione di suono meglio un bd4 o bd5?
What is the setup on all of your clarinets?
It’s all written in the description !
Where can I find the arrangement?
My editor is working on it, should come soon !
I'm pretty shure that even the great Chopin have listened to this...He probably ask for clarinet lessons:)
