Ho conosciuto il signor Lorenzo Coppola un'estate del 1985 nella biblioteca del conservatorio di Roma insieme al mio compagno di classe Giorgio Mandolesi. Insieme stavamo fotocopiando l'adagio di questa bella serenata, dopo averlo apprezzato nella colonna sonora di AMADEUS. Lui, 20enne si avvicina a noi 13enni e ci domanda "e voi che volete farci con questa?" Un saluto e un abbraccio, Lorenzo!!
Una volta fatta l'inquadratura del totale di questo bravo e impegnato complesso musicale io avrei legato ad una sedia il cameramen per impedirgli di fare carrellate a destra e sinistra senza nessun motivo senza nessun senso musicale impedendo la concentrazione all'ascolto di questo brano fatto di rari strumenti e rare sonorità.
I'm beginning to think Alfredo Bernardini has green fingers with music, everything he takes part in gets a special dimension... Dancing - swinging - breathing - enjoying - and then some...
Come on, stop trolling. Largo is one of Mozart's slowest tempos. It's clearly in 8. If he wanted it faster he wouldn't have used Largo. Go look at the autographed score.
Sshooter444 Mozart told you it is in 8? And wrote in the autograph 4/4? I know tradition has it in 8, but tradition isn't always right. But everybody should do as he/she likes. I, for instance, like much more the Vivaldi 4 seasons on accordion then this Largo in 8. I can also tell you why; if you play it in 8 the supposed light & little comments of the clarinet to the whole group become much to serious. Instead of an immediate dialogue and mockery of himself, the whole thing becomes only solemn.
"Good grieve, just survived another shitty day. Let's think of a complaint on this vid then" 🤔hmmm.........they are standing, not sitting..... so no chairs... Magnificent!!!! NO CHAIRS!!!. CLICK Reply: 'Don't they have chairs?' So there they have it. Won't get away with a magnificent performance this bunch. Where is the dog.. now go kick the damn thing..
These clarinets and bassethorns are incredibly sweet and warm. I adore these instruments
Love the sound of natural horns. So glad classical musicians have begun embracing period instruments.

Grande Alfredo
A great performance (of a [what can one say] piece of art)((-::
What tone center are these instruments tuned to? traditional A=415, or modern A=440
No, he didn't, but he told everybody to count in 4 per bar and not in 8.

it sure sounds silly a twice the speed. And where is the contrast with the allegro?
Missing the double bassoon
Actually, the scoring calls for a double bass. Double bassoon is only used to replace it sometimes.
What is the instrumentation of this piece?
2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 basset horns, 2 bassoons, 4 french horns and a double bass
Everything sounds best on the instruments the composer knew!
I was told there would be a double bassoon.
Mozart scored it for double bass.
@@jaysparc i think that contrabassoon wasn't even a thing back then. And if it was, I bet it sounded really bad
@@davidetomasoni5662 It certainly existed back then. Mozart used it in the Masonic Funeral Music and was known earlier in the century.
Mozart marked the part as "contrabassoon or contrabass." So either one can be used, but this version uses a bass.
@@jimp4170 it existed even earlier... I've heard one in a Telemann's opera...
They're not French horns, they're curly wurlies!
🤣🤣🤣 thanks for making my day!!
A pity the Largo is played in half tempo, like always...
***** Mozart told you the right tempo?
Víctor Monte No he didn't, but he told everybody to count in 4 per bar and not in 8.
Excelente interpretación pero malísimo el director de camara, no sabe dirigir videos musicales.
Don't they have chairs?
Chairs weren't invented until well in to the 1890s.
kek... XD

The hall charged extra for chairs and musicians are poor.
to play standing on is better for breathing. every wind player knows that and prefers to play in that way.
