@@guileshillInterestingly, the manuscript score only has one cello line with tutti and solo markings, rather than a cello section line and solo cello line. In fact, the tutti sections are included in most editions because of that - and many musicologists believe Joseph Weigl, to whom this concerto was dedicated, was the only cellist in the Esterhazy orchestra at the time, and would have played the tutti AND solo sections by himself!
Had me thinking…How fortunate we are to live in a world where such creativity exists. Then to have these precious few, with the intellect, talent, and willingness to commit their lives to creating music at this level for the rest of us to enjoy. Thank you and bless you all from the bottom of my heart.
This is absolutely amazing - and I have not experienced anything like Steven Isserlis ... playing with an ease as if he doesn't even play, but rather listens - with every sign of pleasure - to a concert with a cello player called Steven Isserlis telling all kinds of magic tales with his instrument. Thank you so much for this performance ...!!!!
An old soul with so much youthful energy, personality, and playfulness! And a beautiful, fine cello to top it off. Just discovered my new favorite cellist :)
Wow! A genius ‘cellist showing that anything, and everything, is possible while seemingly appearing to be on the edge of madness at times! What a joyous, breathtaking, audacious and poignantly tender, risk-taking journey throughout this well known and loved cello concerto. I enjoyed his also seemingly spontaneous and inspired-by-the-moment ornamentations and humour, along the way, and his amazing bow choreography.
I've come back to this concert so many times. Beautiful and intimate, I never get tired of this performance. Thank you for sharing your joy of music with us!!
I love his reaction to that disturbing noise in 23:47 and how he joyfully integrates it as a stepping stone to lift the music to another level. This music is about joy. Also technique, but mostly joy.
Nice to see that Egarr has included the harpsichord in the basso continuo of this concerto, however, they should have also included at least one bassoon to add a woodwind-bass color to the other winds. Josef Haydn is on record in 1768 as having advocated for the tradition of including the bassoon in the basso continuo having said this: "The bassoon can be omitted if absolutely necessary, but I would rather have it, especially since the bass is obbligato throughout. And I prefer a band with three bass instruments - cello, bassoon and double bass - to one with six double basses and three cellos, because [in the latter scoring] certain passages cannot be heard clearly.“ Basically, if the orchestra includes wind instruments and basso continuo, one should include bassoon too. That was common practice, and the sound of oboes and horns without a wood-wind bass instrument is just odd and uncharacteristic of that period. (This is particularly odd since the same conductor and orchestra include the bassoon in their next video with the 2nd Haydn concerto, but have omitted it here.)
Wunderschöne und lebhafte Aufführung dieses perfekt komponierten Konzerts mit mildem doch gut phrasiertem Ton des genialen Solocellos sowie gut harmoniserten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instrumente. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und echt elegant. Der intelligente und ebenso geniale Cembalist/Dirigent leitet das kompakte und ausgezeichnete Orchester im angemessenen Tempo und mit angenehmer Dynamik. Einfach wundervoll!
Haydn: 1 Cello Konzert C-Dur . hr - Sinfonieorchester. Steven Isserlis . Richard Egarr I enjoyed cello concert 2. I actually am enjoying this much better. Steven certainly is the King 🤴 of the Cello and its a delight to listen to this piece. What a talented Cellist and the orchestra too is so complimenting him with their accompaniment. Anyone can see he lives to bring great music to his audiences. Enjoyably so, too. Thank You for giving me the opportunity of listening to this wonderful music. The experience was delightfully received. Perfection …. In my opinion.
Best performance of this piece on YT. Sound quality also fantastic. I believe I heard this on the radio and was bowled over, and even without the picture you tell the absolute joy and exuberance Isserlis puts into it. Seeing the full performance is a real treat.
What an absolute joy this is, both to hear and to see [apart from the masks]. Wonderful music performed with brilliance, sensitivity and exuberance. My favourite recording of Haydn's Cello Concerto in C by far.
superbe! Je suis au sud de l'Espagne sur les terres de ma chère Loli à Estepona à côté de Marbella. Je suis en cours d'installation mais pour un vieillard de 87 ans tout cela se fait lentement Je t'embrasse Philippe
Just prior to listening to Isserlis play this piece,....I listened to Rostropovich play this also,....and Isserlis ain't taking a back seat to the master at all,......Bravissimo sir.
Concert complètement exaltant , de la part du soliste en particulier, malgré l'incomplétude de l'auditoire en cette période de covid probablement . dommage !
Steven, esto es muy..muy..muy talentoso por el character del concierto, великолепное исполнение, пожалуй это наилучшая интерпретация этого произведения. Но к сожалению много киксов(шлака) в звуке.
I think this is probably the most relaxed looking performance of this I’ve seen.
imo this recording is wayyyy better than the Mischa Maisky one, steven just understands it so much better.
I love that he plays the opening cello part, versus be serenaded and invited to play along.
I guess his line might be something like, "It's called a Tutti, that means everyone, that means I can join in... so there!"

You cannot play this concerto with only one cello - the soloist.

Thank you and bless you all from the bottom of my heart.
I love the way how he used his bow, it is a wonderful interpretation of the piece.
I so agree. ‘Bow choreography’, I call it. Beyond the strings and the left hand, it’s mostly the usage of the bow that gives a cello its voice.

Einfach unglaublich!!!! So frisch, so anders, so glänzend und freudig -
wie der Haydn selber!
Bin sehr überrascht - wow!!!
Absolut grandios!!!❤

Amazing indeed, great to point that out!
Haha I didn't even realize! I thought it was part of the movement XD
I thought it was some kind of weird bow scrape. It worked, though!

I love the passion here. And I’ve always loved Richard from NBS.
Oh to be caressed as is Steven's cello ; the touch, the quiver ............ !

Effortless joy. Awe-inspiring mastery
Bravo! Wonderful performance. Steven is my hero and inspiration on the cello, the orchestra are on top form too, in all a wonderful performance.

Perfection …. In my opinion.
This is incredibly amazing! If the bassoon were present, it would be perfect. Isserlis plays like a wizard producing beautiful magic.
Isserlis pure Spielfreude überträgt sich auf Publikum, die anderen Mitwirkenden und uns als Zuhörerschaft von RUclips. Herrlich.
Great performance! Isserlis is so much fun to watch - he plays with such joy which I see spread to the orchestra, too! Wish I could have been there!
Beautiful performance by the soloist and orchestra too ! Thank you very much for bringing such emotions…
Music is so natural for him, it's amazing to experience. Excellent orchestra too
Best performance of this piece on YT. Sound quality also fantastic. I believe I heard this on the radio and was bowled over, and even without the picture you tell the absolute joy and exuberance Isserlis puts into it. Seeing the full performance is a real treat.

Profoundly beautiful.
The two Haydn cello concerts posted in less than 24 hours, it's like an anticipated Christmas
What a wonderful performance, again. Hard to tell if they were allowed an audience, but does not seem to have affected the quality of the concert.
rich, moving, sensitive -a brilliant performance
Amazing Cellist, Amazing Conductor, Amazing Orchestra. So happy to hear my favorite cello concerto in this fantastic performance. Thank you.
Thank you for Haydn again!
Buenísimo concierto.Gracias a la orquesta sinfónica de radio Frankfurt
What an absolute joy this is, both to hear and to see [apart from the masks]. Wonderful music performed with brilliance, sensitivity and exuberance. My favourite recording of Haydn's Cello Concerto in C by far.
Absolutely the best cellist our time!
The best cellist of all times!
So good! Too good, too good to be true, but it is true. Full of joy, my favourite version of this piece. Thank you so much 💐
Que alegria ouvir essa interpretação!
This could have easily been one of Mozart's concertos.
연주 너무 좋네요. 완숙미와 여유가 넘처납니다. 오케스트라 내공도 상당하네요. 쳄발로도 굿입니다!

Found about this concerto by attending a real concert of Isserlis. Was so great to hear him play this piece.
I really love his interpretation on this piece! Bravoo! 👏👏👏💖💖💕💕
Maravillosa la interpretación de Callow 👍👏
Very nice performance of Schum...ehy, wait a moment! It's Haydn's cello concerto
A total genius!
Breathtaking....
es un maestro total! capo Isserlis
As a cellist, I find this piece to be very interesting.
Absolute perfection.
A new cadenza - very cool! ❤
Absolutely top notch! Love it ! 😊
Holy..... the cello is his body
Exciting Hayden cello
Fantastic!
This is a very good performance, I prefer it to Bruno Philippe's performance 4 years ago. Thank you very much.
Incomparable.
Lo mejor que escuche en mi vida!!

이셜리스 특유의 감성은 잘 적응안되지만 기량만큼은 정말 탁월합니다. 3악장 템포 조금 늦춰서 음 하나하나 꾹꾹 눌러담는거 보세요. 희대의 비브라토 괴물임.
That fellow's great with the cello.
Bravo 🎉🎉🎉

It’s like his face is amused by what some else, very talented, is doing with his body.

This man haven't limits on cello.

Stephen's masterclass is so funny
최애 하이든 1번입니다!
Besides the impressive performance, the cellist reminds of Anthony Bourdain.
대체 저 손목은 어떻게 되있는거지..?
it took me way too long to realize this isnt Maisky
