Someone actually had the audacity to comment on Ibragimov's bow hold?! LMFAO! That bow is so light in his hand he doesn't need to give it the "textbook" French bow hold. He's on such another level that he's able to get all kinds of sweet nuances in his tone--all because his right hand is soooo relaxed. It's as if he was born with that bow in his hand. His playing is incredible!!!
Right, he's on such another level that his bow is just choosing to hang onto his hand. Rinat is such a powerful player that the bow is just doing what he wants it to. Criticizing his bow hold is like criticizing God himself, imo.
I was so relieved when I left the world of "classical" music. In some instances I understand wanting to portray music precisely and 'in period' but there comes a point when musicians are free to do whatever works for them. This guy plays the hell out of the double bass while sitting in chair, who cares what his technique looks like haha!
I’m currently in an orchrestra at my school, and i can proudly say that Rinat has persuaded me to keep playing the bass. I hope to find this comment years later, hopefully becoming a true; bassist (rather than a school-kid). Rinat is most definitely going to be missed, but his lasting impact will change my musical life forever. Thank you Rinat, for providing such beautiful pieces such as this one. We all miss you, 💗.
I once read something some one said about the bass, and listening to this, now I know why. This is what he said; "The Cello shines in music that's emotional feel is happy with a slight hint of sadness in it, like a parent watching their child graduate high school and going to college, proud of their child and hopeful of the future, yet their heart breaking from their child growing up and become their own adult. The Bass, however, is the king of pure sorrow. It's lows are so dark and colorful and it's highs are so soft and light, it's like the weeping of a mother who's lost her child. The lows resonate loudly the moaning of pure grief and the high range sounds as if the instrument's voice is crying and unable to get it's voice to speak. I'm a brass player but I'd chop my left leg off to have grown up in a school system with an orchestra program to become a bass player."
There is a music for bass, look up Bottesini: 2 concertos, Hoffmeister: 3 concertos, Dittersdorf: 2 concertos, Pichl: 2 concertos, Koussewitzky: 1 concerto, ... Míšek: 3 sonatas for bass and piano, Fryba: Suite in old style, ...
I think the problem is not that the bass can't sing as an instrument. It is just fiendishly difficult to achieve. That's why most people don't bother to write for it, because the number of people being able to play that is small.
There are many beautiful things in life, but few compare to listening to a virtuoso play their instrument. It becomes impossible to say where the performer ends and the Instrument starts, and vice versa. The dedication, time, and talent that melds player and Instrument is truly amazing.
Rest in Peace , Master of greatness. May your videos bring inspiration to all Doublebassist now and in the future, the legend will never be forgotten 🎻
WOW! I'm actually a guitar luthier, but in my shop the last couple of days, has been a double bass by Meisel in w Germany. I am charged with carving a new bridge and fixing the myriad of problems arising from 35 years of use. I've spent 30 hours on it so far and can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I tell you this because I probably won't charge the musician for what's it's worth. Now I know why! My efforts are trivial when compared to performers like this! It humbles me and causes me to do the best work I possibly can, so when it's back in capable hands music like this can come from it! Bravo!!!! Greg/GREG GUITARS LLC
Crazy coming back to this video every year or so. It feels like yesterday I was 8 years old watching this almost everyday so amused by how versitile the double bass could be. Sounds I never thought would be made on the instrument and now I am here studying the same instrument in college and watching the same video.
The fact that anybody is criticizing such perfection is deeply disturbing to me. This man is a genius. I invite you to prove me wrong, as long as a video of your performance of the Vanhal Bass Concerto is provided.
A Double Bass is also known as a Contrabass and refers to the range of the instrument - playing in the contra octave - the 16' octave of an organ - below the cello, which is the 8' octave on an organ.
Hi Andrew914, the sound that you can mainly hear in this video and the Dittersdorf was recorded using an AB spaced pair of DPA 4006 microphones, about 5m from the players and about 4m high. The bass has a Neumann TLM103 and the piano a pair of Schoeps MK21 capsules as close mics, but as I remember there isn't a great deal of these used in the final mix. It was recorded into Pro Tools through preamps in an RME Micstasy and a pair of Focusrite ISA 220s. Hope that answers your question!
This is so lovely... the sound is incredible, and watching Ibragimov play is, as always, like a dream. He makes it look so flawlessly effortless. I can only hope to one day reach this level of musicianship.
Rinat Ibragimov is great. He as well as for instance Bozo Paradzik are very deep in the art of contrabass, which is the most diffucult instrument to play classical music solos, specially those which are written for smaller and easier instruments like cello and violin. Listeners remember: every single contrabass instrument has its own sound and nature and the result is always a combination of the player and the instrument. Like the rider and the horse. Listen to Rinat with 3 string bass !!
It’s so inspiring when you hear a classical piece performed with so much feeling and emotion; that’s something that can’t be taught, but rather a byproduct of the intense work, dedication and passion one has for their craft. Beyond the obvious virtuosity of his playing, the thing that always moves me the most about Rinat’s playing is the emotion he expresses in his playing. Beyond beautiful!
Rest in peace you beautiful bass playing man. You inspired my playing all throughout my youth orchestra And I think of your style often whenever I play any kind of music.I hope you're playing with the seraphim now.
At times I often question why I chose the bass to play. I started off as a viola, but after three weeks I was begging my mom to switch my instruments, and she did. I have been happily playing the bass for 6 years now, and though I'm talented people like this inspire me to work so much harder, because I want to be more than what I am. Thank you for all your wonderful music, soon I will be playing songs like these for my senior year as a memory to imbed into my highschool. I listen to your music constantly so I can gain muscle memory of the right tones and pitches. Thank you for being my inspiration.
Check out how his middle and ring finger (right hand) are just hovering, not even touching the bow most of the time. He's playing so relaxed/lightly and drawing (pulling) such a great sound. Fantastic stuff, Rinat.. bravo!
John PatitucciDepends on the perspective. One person might be so well-versed in instrumental music that he'd consider this track worse than some analogues. Another person might simply had twisted hearing that wasn't trained for proper music. Finally some composer\performer might professionally dislike the execution of the track. While your question felt aimed towards the 2nd example, I hope that my phrasing still was a sufficient answer to "why". Otherwise it goes medical and much more obscene...
'Twisted hearing?' 'Proper music?' As a classical musician myself, I think you're a snob. I'd hate to think what someone just beginning to have a look at 'proper music' might think of us.
@@rufusstanier8893 Here Here. I'm a classical head but I in no way feel Classical is more "proper" than any other kind of music. It's annoying when people feel that in order to appreciate one thing you must denounce the others.
Have been looking for a musician who could show all the possibilities of this wonderful instrument.Show the entire range of sound when playing with a bow. And finally found! Compelling performance!
Simplemente el mejor intérprete de Contrabajo que ha existido en la historia! mi favorito... sin duda disfruto cada segundo de éste concierto con Rinat Ibragimov.
I would just like you say thank you for the informative and timely response and for putting such high quality videos out there for aspiring musicians and music lovers to listen to. It's truly a gift from LSO to the world.
He´s really playing in a class of its own...! Nobody else had released such a wide range of records on a perfect level with different basses, different bows and bow hold, different tunings, all in a relaxed way.......; What else to say................ääheemm, I`m sorry, i`ve forgotton Edgar Meyer (Shame on me!)!!!
Bobby and Johanna, you're taking a really misguided point of view on the bass as a solo instrument. The high-register bass has a very unique timbre that couldn't be replicated by any other stringed instrument, and that in of itself is good enough reason for its solo repertoire to make use of it. And that's not to mention the fact that a low-register bass would be extremely difficult to hear over an orchestra. Cellists play in the register of violinists all the time, but I'll bet you wouldn't go saying that Saint-Saens Cello Concerto 1 should never have been written because it's 'trying imitate the violin'.
I love travelling by the night on bus and watching this as the sun rises in a very very cold morning c: this, and andrea bocellis music makes it a beautiful travel.
@@jayw8726 lol I joined the marine corps. I was going to try out for the marine Corp band but realized quite quickly that what I had was a hobby.

Musique de ce concerto pour contrebasse est un concerto d'une vivacité( où des aires de repos sont aménagées ) , pleine de joie , d'entrain et l'aspect grave de la contrebasse , si difficile à jouer en dehors des parties d'accompagnements , a un effet tout à fait bénéfique pour l'auditeur , car si vous voulez retrouver en vous le pays calme du sourire , écoutez ces morceaux en qui rien , je vous l'assure n'est anodin si bien que Amadeus Mozart appréciait cet extraordinaire petit maître qu'était Vanhall .
Sorry to be a pedant, but it's an A string :) He does play it at 4:11 and I'm guessing it's because it's a Viennese tuning as mentioned in the description.
Very nice song, played with so much passion... Mr. Ibragimov prooves himself as a true virtuoso. And the bass is so beautiful, I wish I could have one like that!
Because technically playing a double bass requires more technique domain than a violin to achieve a good and clean sound, so it’s not a “popular” instrument
Io considero molto importante questa tua esecuzione, il motivo è che tu quando suoni questo eccezionale strumento riesci a trasmettere un emozione, Bravissimo !!!! V.Q. I consider it very important that your performance, why is that when you can play this excellent tool to convey an emotion, Bravissimo!! V.Q.

Rinat Ibragimov and Catherine Edwards are great! Playing those instruments like this is really a present for all of us! Bravo!
As a cellist, it's really striking me how much more physical effort it takes to make routine shifts on the bass. This is a phenomenal performance.
Nobody has ever played this as good as him. Ever. Rest in peace, Rinat. The world misses you.

Bobby and Johanna, you're taking a really misguided point of view on the bass as a solo instrument.
