Sarabande for Strings (live)
Sarabande for Strings and Guitar, taken from the Cantate (2019) performance.
Posing as an instrumental interlude in the midst of a one hour piece, the Sarabande takes us back to the Baroque. Its sad B minor theme can really be felt as winter, but in the middle the piece resorts to D major and the sun comes through.
Enjoy!
Conductor and composer: Jochem le Cointre
Recording by Marcel Kieffer
Recorded in Leeuwarden, June 2019

It is a two act music drama based on Hermann Hesse's timeless novel.

Organ Fantasy "A Study in Light and Darkness"
Просмотров 454 месяца назад
Composition for church organ, written for the Carl Orff Competition 2019. The competition required two musical quotes to be included: one from Orff's "De temporum fine comoedia" and the other from Mozart's Fantasy in C minor. Exploring the rich tapestries of light and of darkness, this Fantasy quickly alters moods. Its quest is to find the light both outside, in nature, and within, in ourselves...

Trio Bartholomeus (New York premiere)
Просмотров 1176 месяцев назад
I wrote Trio Bartholomeus, my first classical chamber work, back in 2014-2015. Using the traditional violin, cello, piano it became a deeply personal (and spiritual) piece. It started off with a simple first page, which I showed to my mentor. Myself, I didn't think much of it. But he exclaimed: "This is some piece! What is it about?" I explained the origin of my French last name, the Hugenots, ...

Mozart's slow movement from the tenth Piano Sonata. It was the first Sonata I learned thoroughly, at Dr. Ronn Yedidia's New York Piano Academy. Back in 2012. A year later I performed the slow movement at my grandma's funeral. Ever since, the piece has remained very dear to me. This recording is from 2017. Enjoy!
Mozart on shabby old piano
Просмотров 626 месяцев назад
Mozart is nowadays often presented under the best conditions, big concert halls, opera houses, Steinway pianos and Stradivarius violins... But did you know some of his best works were written in the private realm of his own violin and fortepiano? The fortepiano sounds not so perfect at all, and yet the heavenly music of his genius still shines through. I recorded this piece on my own childhood ...

Mirages of Namib and Relaxin' at the Camarillo
Erg mooi, Jochem! Het melancholische gaat over in het hoopvolle. ❤
Mooi hoor Jochem, muziek en foto matchen heel goed! Prachtig stuk trouwens
Heel appart...mooi hoor😊
Heerlijke waltz....👌👍
Is the theme based on the first Ballade?
Direct quote, whether consciously or not.
Thanks for noticing! Yes, its motive is derived from Chopin’s First Ballade in G Minor. (Though in my Waltz the resolution to G Minor is constantly delayed and lands on a soft Eb major instead.) The ending of the Waltz likewise shows similarities to the Ballade. I highly recommend Alfred Cortot’s version. An old recording can be found on RUclips. Thanks so much for listening! 🎶☀️🌈
Beautiful music. Thanks for sharing your great work.
I like it. I sight read it quite easily. Good job.
verstild en met impact!
❤ prachtig 😊
Geweldig....❤❤
Mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooi💋
One of the most moving renditions I ever heard for this immortal gem!! Transcending yet so self-effacing. A true gift from a loving grandson to a beloved grandpa! Thank you!!🙏🩷
Amazing! I love it
3:03
Beautiful music
Nice piece
Phenomenal 👏
Exceptionally well played too !!
What an astonishing musical work - and a historical testament this document is!!! I am dumbfounded! Not to mention that it is an ever first chamber composition by Mr. le Cointre… just incredible!!! Thank you for posting it!!! 🙏🙏
Chopin will turn out better. Personally with YOU!
Hands down - this is the most beautiful and moving rendition I have heard for this eternally precious Mozart work since Horowitz’s in Moscow!! Mr. le Cointre reincarnates Mozart’s timeless soul with incisive yet natural insight, and with such touching humility. I am left in tears…
I do not know why, but it reminds me of Medtner for some reason.

Thank you, my dear Jochem, for such a precious gift!! It is a special privilege and honor for me - coming from a true friend and a brilliant colleague like yourself - a young man who is blessed with the ability of amalgamating pure musical genius with an extra-musical narrative and a hypnotic personal touch which resonates from every note you liberate into the air of our grand world. This one is a very unique and heart wrenching one! ❤
Thank you so much, dear Ronn! ☺️❤️🌈
Amazing playing!
