Here playing the Adagio from the Gran Partita on period clarinets and basset horns:

Also playing natural horn! I wonder how he records all this stuff? His editing skills are clearly almost as good as his clarinet playing!

The far background at 2:45 made me chuckle. Even Mozart loves it
Wonderful playing and video work.

Nicolas Baldeyrou is not only an incredibly accomplished instrumentalist in terms of his technical prowess but a truly excellent musician. On YouTube one can listen to his recording of Weber's Second Concerto, which is arguably one of the most musical I have ever heard. I can only describe it as thrilling. His highly personal interpretative style, which incorporates many interesting touches and nuances, lifts the music off the page. In my view, Mr. Baldeyrou is one of the most inspiring players of his generation. A titan in today's pantheon of outstanding clarinetists.

The instruments sound really lovely and I can't tell whether is it the player, or the instruments, or the accoustic of the room, or all of it together. I've especially never heard an oboe sound so magical.

THE PLAYER



Of course the period instruments have a certain haunting quality to their timbre, but if a great musician was not behind it, you'd never hear it.


Oh yes, and some masterful recording engineering too.

...and yet, miraculously enough, Baldeyrou's ability to clone himself and others....THAT goes unnoticed while you people focus on the music, period instruments and technique!

UNBELIEVABLE! ;)

Well, not overlooked but there are tons of pre-teens doing even more technical wizardry with various video and audio controlling software and hardware. The important part HERE (I believe) is the music, and more importantly (here) is the "clarinetistry."

Paul, in the comedy of which my post was intended I agree with you completely.

A plethora of video editing software programs can superimpose video shot at different times over each other, from which elementary school students can create the illusion of cloning with. :)

I was not serious that the basic video editing skills Mr. Baldeyrou displayed here rival his musical attributes.

If every clarinet player learnt to play the Natural Horn, they would find their intonation on modern clarinet would greatly improve (the same can be said for a 5 key clarinet or period basset horn). It's an amazing work out for the EAR/BRAIN that highlights and develops the skills required to play in tune.
