I went with with an orchestra and choral ensemble to Europe in 1983 (I'm a singer) and this piece was part of our repertoire. To me the 5th movement truly takes me to the emotional core of that tour for me-and this performance is truly sublime.
Andrew Carter set this movement for SATB in "Lullaby my Jesus", In "Two Carols". It works very well indeed. Worth a listen ruclips.net/video/nR53swfkWc0/видео.html
I agree with the other comments that this is a great performance - great energy, the tempos work and the ensemble is very tight. A wonderful performance of a wonderful work.
I first heard this suite on the radio in Seattle in 2016, and this performance by the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra has since become not only my favorite rendition of the Capriol by far, but one of my favorite examples in all of music of what the interpretation brings to the composition. In particular, Henning Kraggerud, and Torun Sæter Stavseng (the lead cellist here), cannot be praised enough for their passion and their genius for the music, and their complementary energy performing together; they are the backbone of this performance's enduring success! (You can't miss the second cellist's look of incredulity shortly after 4:45!) This video is how I like to think of Norway and its people: egalitarian, masterful, and warm.

This was such an awesome performance - can't stop playing it - I hope this Chamber Orchestra is still intact - would love to hear them in concert someday!
My freshman year I was in concert orchestra, and we played all 6 movement of this piece. Our school has a concert and chamber orchestra, and we are some of the best players in the on the nation.
I listend to to so many recordings of the Capriol Suite. This recording with the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra is really the best of all interpretations!
Amazing music from what appeared to be the very turbulant existance of Peter Heseltine. This heartfelt presentation by the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra is the personafication of musical intimacy. Simply awesome.
Proto Man Nice! I'm playing the 1st, 2nd, and 6th for an upcoming concert. I play cello, so the second movement is a bit of a pain, but it sounds really good when I play it right!
What a wonderful performance of this music which I first heard as a boy around 1947 and have love ever since. It was composed the year my late sister was born.
This piece with Brandenburg concerto will be the first orchestra I will be listening to live. What a treat and it’s free! Had no idea my little town has an orchestra of players. This will be the first of many. Cheers everyone!
This performance is absolutely magical! Such excellence combined with such soothing sounds could and should change civilization as we know it. Sorry, over the top?
maybe such music was influenced and brought about by the civilisation of the time. We get the music that our civilisation demands.... but no, certainly not "over the top" its a great thought! We can always hope.
yes - very over the top - at least choose a composition/composer worthy of such a sentiment - not some quarrelsome occultist that wound up committing suicide
This was always one of my favorite suites to play and still one of my favorites to listen to. I haven't touched my violin in a couple of years but this performance has inspired me to want to play again. Perfection. ❤
This chamber orchestra is awesome!!!! I love their performance a lot!!! As a concertmaster of a school string orchestra, I am still trying to figure out how to lead a orchestra with no conductor. They r a great example for me to learn from. My English is not very good. If i have any mistake, please tell me.
It's about rhythm. Student string players tend to slow down when it's hard - you have to emphasize that it's better for them to keep the rhythm inside and to drop the hard passages. Also, everyone has to start to feel the rhythm together - it should be telepathic - totally internalized. It's better to be musical than to be perfect.
Former 2nd cello school string orchestra. Practice same piece a lot, including chopping up pieces of the music and repeating those which are more difficult til better/improved/?perfect. Try to choose fun, appealing pieces which your musicians are going to enjoy playing as well as your audience listening - you can tell when musicians are enjoying playing a piece. Get the general body of the piece together first, then break it down into bits as required. Try to encourage a democracy or feeling of togetherness - egos will break an orchestra. Encourage players to practice at home. If they are having difficulty, take it to their teacher to discuss with them. Probably what I have said is just general common sense, but anyway! Good luck
@@SFKelvin Agreed that student string players tend to slow down when it is hard, which is why practising those passages is very helpful. It raises confidence as well as polishing sound.
A lot of musicality on the part of this very professional orchestra and a beautiful artistic sensibility. I really appreciated the quality of this performance. Thank you and best regards.
I love how Warlock throws the melody around between the 1st and 2nd violins in the first movement. Now, if the group had placed the 2nd violins where the cellos were, that would sound even more awesome.
Discipline, Drive, Intimacy and unbridled Emotion make this a wonderful performance. Nothing remotely casual about this whatsoever. I envy such an experience with fellow music makers.
Those of us who are so very fortunate to know and love this marvelous suite of music. This is real and beautiful music unlike the crap that fills the airwaves today,
I've listened to this utter perfection so many times and find myself wondering why conductors are needed for a well rehearsed ensemble. These musicians just keep an eye on the first violin and work in perfect unison.
I just started playing bass around 1 year ago, I am now going to be playing this piece as a freshman with the highest chamber orchestra in my high school. Oh b0y
This rendition is excellent in every way. And the recording is much clearer than the studio version on YT by the ECO. Keeping it ensemble in that cramped church area looked quite a challenge, but it sounded great.
Played the first, fourth, and sixth movements last year in my school's Chamber Strings. Everyone had such a love/hate relationship with Bransles. So much fun to play and listen to
![[CCCO] Peter Warlock - Capriol Suite](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/IlwurbcQVNE/mqdefault.jpg)
Played this in high school orchestra 22 years ago and it will be one of the my most favorite pieces. It is beautiful. ❤
This interpretation should become the industry standard in perpetuity. The dynamics!!! Just amazing. Love this.
The ensemble of this is fantastic, so well held together, playing as if one unit
That 5th movement is an absolute killer. The harmonies just float around you from major to minor and back. Gives me goose pimples every time.

you mean 4th...

@@stainless0521 I don't think so. The 5th is the poignant one.
I don't know what it is about Norway but these musicians just nail the energy and soul of a great piece like this like no one else I've heard.
So true!
I agree with the other comments that this is a great performance - great energy, the tempos work and the ensemble is very tight. A wonderful performance of a wonderful work.
If you play it at a slower tempo it sounds really war like and good
@@The_Rat_Master These are dances - why would you want them to sound war-like? I found a performance that was much slower and didn't like it.

Pavane has been my favorite since the early 1990s... Simple, elegant yet sorrowful beauty.
Pavane is piece written by Thoinot Arbeau in 15 century. Warlock used it well.
Absolutely love watching these musicians; so much passion!
We played this piece in my orchestra class, and it's my favorite out of all the pieces we've played all year 😁
Saaaaaaame 😄😄😄
I love this song and I’m playing it right now, but, this is my second year 😭😭😭😭 I’m one of the 1sts. It’s a very fun song though!!!
I'm in a beginning adult chamber ensemble and we just played this for our recital (with me on cello). I loved it, super fun piece!
Wow, what a beautiful rendition! One of my favourite pieces, but this is the best version I've heard. Fantastic!

Beautiful. This music always makes me cry. Something in my childhood?
If you ask Freud... sure!
The best performance of the Capriol Suite I've ever heard! Love, love this music...
This does induce a vision of Renaissance ladies and gentlemen dancing together in period costume.
One of the best renditions I've ever heard.
A very troubled man , and yet capable of producing such joyful sound . I hope he is at peace now.
Yes, at peace especially after listening to a recording like this
I listend to to so many recordings of the Capriol Suite. This recording with the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra is really the best of all interpretations!
I have heard other renditions of this piece, but none better than this one.
Amazing music from what appeared to be the very turbulant existance of Peter Heseltine. This heartfelt presentation by the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra is the personafication of musical intimacy. Simply awesome.
I'm playing the 1st, 5th, and 6th movements of this suite for a performance that 's in 2 months. I am so stoked.
Proto Man Nice! I'm playing the 1st, 2nd, and 6th for an upcoming concert. I play cello, so the second movement is a bit of a pain, but it sounds really good when I play it right!
Sweet I’m playing 1st 2nd and 4th for my orchestra
I’m playing all of them
I’m playing 1st, 5th and 6th too
For my high school orchestra we did the first second and 6th moments
This is perfection! Thank you All!
What a wonderful performance of this music which I first heard as a boy around 1947 and have love ever since. It was composed the year my late sister was born.
A wonderfully sympathetic performance - both refined and spirited. Thank you.
Played this when I was a sophomore, this brought so much memories of the great times in that class
This piece with Brandenburg concerto will be the first orchestra I will be listening to live. What a treat and it’s free! Had no idea my little town has an orchestra of players. This will be the first of many. Cheers everyone!
Just discovered Peter Warlock - a new composer for me. I like him very much!
This is one of my favourite pieces of music. I'm delighted to have discovered this wonderful performance of it. A superb Chamber Orchestra.
One of my all time favourite pieces, I play it from the piano score now and then. Wonderfully played, well done, thank you!
The Norwegian Chamber Orchestra is the Best!! Such professional and heartfelt playing, thank you!!
I love the Pavane, the Second Movement.
One of my favourite pieces of music. Pieds-en-l'air is bliss. (Hang on, that's another English composer entirely.)
I have just found these works and this excellent performance has convinced me to purchase the cd. Thank you to all of these musicians.
our symphony played the 1st, 2nd and 6th movement at our concert when i was 10. we rocked it!!
I'd forgotten just how fab this piece really is! This wonderful performance absolutely does it justice. Lovely! ⭐👍
I watch and listen to this performance at least twice a month. I love the piece, performance. and presentation.
I really like this song!! 😎🐆🐪🐑🐏🐐🐀🐂🐋🐠🐟🐊🐃🐳🐬🐅🐫🐪🐑🐎🐖🐘🦃🐓🕊🐿🐇🐲🐩🐈🐇🐉🐕
I heard this more than three times, becaus it was more fantastic as possible! Thank you very much for this absolutely great video!!!
I have loved this suite for many decades but this performance utterly re-invigorates it. Marvellous!
Fluid, expressive, engaging and inviting yet tight, very difficult to achieve instrumentally, well done NCO and Henning Kraggerud.
I found this doing a “Classical Sunday “ radio show a very long time ago and immediately fell in.love with it.
Música con alma y pasión. Love it!
This beautiful performance has just given an unbelievable boost to my already massive enjoyment of my favourite work. Thank you so much.
You are wonderful. Thank you for your great music making.
This is my favorite performance of this suite, also. I'm surprised it only has 645K views though as I'm sure I've watched it at least 600K times. :-D
Love this! Thank you, Norwegian Chamber Orchestra!!!
I love playing this with our orchestra Kontria Kapelli. The first big achord is so beautiful

AC冰麟城下 ya, they are mostly started and cut off by concert master. If you watch concert master and first cello they generally show down beats

5:48-6:00 is my favorite of all the movements😍🙏
What a wonderful venue! I love the whole visual of this video. It is lovely and cool.
I love this piece and this is a wonderful performance of it. Well done!
Great version, the Bransles in particular - 6:01 the highlight for me
A lot of musicality on the part of this very professional orchestra and a beautiful artistic sensibility.
I really appreciated the quality of this performance.
Thank you and best regards.
So wonderful! What fine playing and interpretation. I completely enjoyed this.
Just outstanding! A beautiful suite played with passion and emotion. My favourite piece played by my now favourite strings.
Another great composer I can listen to! The musicians are so wonderful too!
Holy crap that was amazing. Love how you play kinda like a rock or metal band, great energy! loved it
Indeed, so much energy and passion, plus some very hot chicks.
tf????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Amazing Energy from this group
もう本当に本当に大好きです！！！❤❤❤❤

Peter warlock is wizard.
No, he's a warlock.
You're a warlock, Peter
He changed his name because he was so intrested in magic. It's not his real name.
And to think how he warms the heart! Sing Lullaby my little sweetly!
@@gerrysmith1143 wait legit
Played this in Jr. High, but these pros have enormous control and musicality
Stunning! This is always the example I show to my students!

以前リコーダーのグループで練習しましたが、此の速さで音を重ねて行く事はかなりの技量でないと無理。とても表現力が高いとおもいます。何度も聴かせていただいてます。
Man, that Sword Dance ending... :) So cool!!!
Fantastico!
One of my favourites, brilliant performance!
Bransles is my jam. Hardest song ever tho
Fantastic Peter Warlock.
Beautiful. Thank you so much for posting this wonderful version

Best one I ever seen
Bravo! super tight, perfect tempo, well done!
Just heard this piece on KNAU classical here in Flagstaff, AZ. Gorgeous piece.
Bravo! beautiful piece and touching performance!
A very fine performance, slightly fast tempi (good!) and very intense, accentual playing. Bravo and brava!
