Absolutely stunning and fascinating, both the composition and the performance by Theo Plath (what a beautiful bassoon timbre!) and the orchestra. I love remembering my time studying in Frankfurt and attending concerts of the HR-Sinfonieorchester in the Alte Oper (I know... this concerto was recorded in the HR Sendesaal).
That is so beautiful! Really! I am a teenager and i love this piece! And the playing of theo plath of course. I absolutly enjoy listening to the solo concertos he is playing and also to this fantastic orchetra! John williams composed a great great piece for our underrated instrument! As the conductor said: Bravo! All of you!!!
Bravo!!!! Thank you for performing this absolute masterpiece in the first place; it really should be better known and more regularly performed by all important orchestras. And secondly congratulations for such a beautiful performance full of care, respect and passion
I have admired this piece since it was first published in the 90s. Its varied styles and textures make for a change of pace from the standard Williams film scores. His use of atonality, bitonality and--especially--fibrous colours in the orchestra keep this work engaging to the end. It leaves me wanting more! An excellent performance here by Theo Plath and company. Bravi.
IV is executed perfectly. You can hear the phantoms struggling and the twigs snapping on the forest floor … what a haunted movement and one of the most phenomenal pieces EVER.
Wunderschöne Aufführung dieses modernen und fein komponierten Konzerts mit bezauberndem Ton des technisch fehlerlosen Solofagotts sowie farbenreichen doch perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instrumente. Die Virtuosität aller Einzelspieler ist wahrlich eindrucksvoll. Der intelligente und geniale Dirigent leitet das hoch funktionalle Orchester in verschiedenen Tempi und mit möglichst effektiver Dynamik. Wunderbar vom Anfang bis zum Ende!
Quel dommage que la France découvre seulement maintenant la richesse des oeuvres du Master.... une fois de plus, le snobisme intellectuel l'aura écarté, et pourtant, il a composé en plus des partitions pour les films, des concertos pour violon, violoncelle, flûte, tuba, cor .... La France est passé à côté et avec d'autres comme Kilar, Horner, Barry, Goldsmith....
The introduction at the beginning reminded me if a jazzed up close encounter of the third kind segment when the aliens communicate with us at devil mountain. I think this.whole piece is beautiful.
SOLID PROOF THAT CLASSICAL MUSIC IS DEAD. IF LISTENING TO 19TH CENTURY COMPOSERS OVER AND OVER IS AGAINST ARTISTIC SENSIBILITIES, YOU CAN LISTEN TO SOME 3RD RATE COMPOSER FROM HOLLYWOOD WHO SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO KISS THE ROADS MAHLER WALKED ON. I APPRECIATE HR SIN BUT A. BRING IN MORE 21 C. COMPOSERS AND B. CUT OUT THAT NASTY DISSONANT RING IN THE BEGINNING OF EVERY VIDEO. DONT HURT EARS RIGHT OFF THE BAT!
Imagine complaining about an orchestra publishing free records of their performances in highest quality. No one asked for your gatekeeping. And maybe stop capitilizing every word.

Chapeau! Ein tolles, viel zu selten aufgeführtes Fagottkonzert mit einem unglaublich sensibel spielenden und technisch brillianten Solisten!
I’m completely obsessed w Theo Plath. Such an incredible and handsome bassoon player 🖤

One my favorite concert work by John Williams. The orchestration is amazing. This is well performed both by soloist and orchestra.

Bonsoir
Quelle merveilleuse interprétation !
Quel bassoniste exceptionnel !
Bravo à l’orchestre , quelle leçon de musique !!!
Hi Theo! Wonderful interpretation; great dynamics! I really enjoyed hearing this piece. Greetings from Buenos Aires!!
Bril. Tremendous playing. I can’t imagine anyone equaling that big, free sound and control, with acres of technique to burn.

I performed this with piano many years ago. I absolutely love this piece!
Sauber Theo, großartig gespielt und tolles Stück! :)
Bravo, amazing performance! I should have listened to this piece years ago.
Fantastico!!! Bravissimo Theo Plath 👍👍👍
This is definitely my favourite concert work by Maestro Williams. Beautiful, lively and elegant writing
Well, that got 'em all worked up. Nice! Thank you for sharing these fantastic productions and performances. NC, USA

I love your music..........you are really awesome
I like to listen in on youtube early mornings. Like Sabastian Wittiber flute and Theo Plath bassoon. Sam- Austin, Texas, USA.

Or how to show one's musical ignorance. Do try to educate yourself before ridiculizing yourself with such comments.

simply dull
I love both the composer and the soloist. The orchestra is also top notch and the recording quality stellar 🌞🌞✨
Goes well with news from Wuhan !!!
I love almost all your orchestrations. Pieces like these are the failures. Please give us music next time and cease with the noise.
tell me you don't know anything about orchestral music without telling me you don't know anything about orchestral music
Shut up
What about this concerto could possibly be regarded as noise? What exactly is your definition of noise, if I may ask?
This music is like listening world news today !!!
