I just read all the comments under this video and i just can't but be amazed with how much everyone has loved this music...only positive comments! Really quite extraordinary :).
When I listen to this music, I remember the great beauty of the Occidental music in all centuries and the importance of Savall's work who give us a beautiful music. Great, master!
So incredibly beautiful! I consider learning about Jordi Savall one of my best musical "discoveries" of the past years. Since hearing him for first time, I've bought a number of his albums and they've all been superb. Genius!
esto es el ejemplo perfecto de una interpretación simple que es absolutamente grandiosa-sólo el pulso de esta música te hipnotiza para llevarte a otra esfera-jordi, gracias por crear tanta belleza
Trovo l'ultimo pezzo assolutamente straordinario; la semplicità e la purezza nella melodia e nei precisissimi e raffinatissimi legnetti, gocce di rugiada in un mattino di primavera.
@erizx The largest is a violone. Note these instruments have frets (dried gut tied around the neck), more to aid in timbre than intonation, although they can be slanted to allow for minute changes in intonation as well. Strings are gut, and are bowed underhand. Tuning is primarily in fourths, with a third in the middle, similar to a guitar.
I would very much like to see them live... And I would like to listen to a lesson of his philosophy how to play (ancient) music. How to listen.. I believe in the individual pulse of every piece of music. And his versions fit.
@erizx No, they are viols, a family of instruments that predated the violin family (technically the modern double bass is a viol). They come in different sizes - treble, tenor, bass (the size similar to a cello). I don't see a tenor in this ensemble.
Hi ha gent que aprofita qualsevol ocasió per desafinar. Hi ha d'haver de tot, a la vinya del senyor. Paciència i a gaudir de la bona música, la faci qui la faci.
Not Dowland, but it's music from the Renaissance, the same stylistic period. The first piece is an arrangement of a vihuela da mano (early guitar tuned like a lute) pavan by Luis Milan.
Mainly medieval, renaissance and baroque music by composers that few people these days remember. Some are spanish, some catalan, provencale, french or italian. Dowland of course is british.
How to pronounce Jordi: the first consonant sound like the "s" in "vision" or "pleasure", the rest as you would pronounce in English. The strong syllable is the first one. Jordi is George in Catalan
@NetherDrakeye ¿Tanto ha mudado el concepto? La italia de hoy es un pais que se ajusta muy bien a la republica romana y sin embargo en la edad media era todo un conglomerado de reinos y ciudades estado. El territorio de Francia actual coincide bastante bien con la provincia de la galia romana y sin embargo en la edad media tambien era un conglomerado de estados. Lo mismo pasa con Grecia, Marruecos, Libia, Turquia, etc. Al final las provincias romanas acabaron siendo paises.
Later version of 1st tune: "Pavana & Gallarda" (Luis de Milán) by Jordi Savall & HESPÈRION XXI (from Maguelone festival 2012) is actually published here ... and it's very interesting to compare them both: ♫ ruclips.net/video/PfqkA5qMi3I/видео.html
the ground of the 3:08 part in Spain it's called ''guárdame las vacas'' since the Renaissance. It's not clear if the romanesca was the same or not.''Guárdame las vacas'' it´s: IV-I-II-VI#/ IV-I-II-VI#-II.
At position ► 3:08 - it is rather: ♫ "Danza dela Hacha" (compare with this version: ruclips.net/video/eK0zEZvIO1g/видео.html ) But OK, it is also one of derivations on Romanesca scheme - like 'Guárdame las vacas'' (and also later ... "Greensleeves") O:-) (One of the fine versions of: 'Guárdame las vacas'' is here: ruclips.net/video/XFis7egw138/видео.html)
Thank you very much. I play baroque violin and rebec. So if someone tell me who composed (arranged) them, I'll try to play them. I searched several dance books of renaissance era for those songs before, but I couldn't find them.
Unfortunately it is not, I have the CD and these songs are not on it. There is a Canarios (improvisation) but they are not the same piece, I think the one on Ostinato is better =)
Great performance by the great master and his equally well performing ensemble. The representation of the solo players on the screen is regrettably poor though...
España (i-spn-ya "la tierra en la que se forjan metales") ha existido desde la antigüedad, Portugal es un estado a partir de uno de los antiguos reinos de España. El resto de reinos tras su unión conservaron el nombre ancestral de España. Cada región o reino de España ha ido cambiando a lo largo de la historia según los gobernantes, por ejemplo Portugal en otro tiempo se llamó Hispania Ulterior Lusitania. Portugal es parte de España en sentido geográfico e histórico. Aunque no en el político.
Grr... the camerawork is a little annoying. I like watching movies like this to see the players techniques, and the person on the cameras never looks at the cornettist when he is actually playing anything of interest...
@fillfucker España, que deriva de hispania era como referian los romanos al conjunto de poblaciones que habitaban la peninsula ibérica. La actual Cataluña era logicamente Hispania (España) para los romanos. Es decir España no se entiende sin sus partes constituyentes. Como veo que tu cultura no es mucha, cuando quieras insultar refierete a puta Castilla y Leon, puta Navarra o Reino Nazarí de Granada...que es en la época en la que te has quedado...Bona tarda chavalin

Ta muzyka jest cudowna.

listening to this is just like cleaning up your mind from all that romantic mess. feels good
Demasiado..demasiado contenido de belleza, Es un toque balsámico, es mas que perfecto, es sublime..
Please never delete this!
wonderful. how relaxing such pieces are.
This is so beautiful it made me cry.
Senzillament fantàstic.
I saw Jordi Savall with his wife and daughter and they are amazing. Jump on a chance to see Savall!
Oh, my, how young they all look like, specially Rolf Lislevand (the guitar player)!
Maravilloso. He podido acudir muchas veces a conciertos del Maestro Savall en Graz . Siempre es un placer oirlo.
Always a good find. A very fun suite.

Past month I saw him with Concert des nations in The Caixa Terrasa foundation in Terrassa Barcelona. Great.
Trovo l'ultimo pezzo assolutamente straordinario; la semplicità e la purezza nella melodia e nei precisissimi e raffinatissimi legnetti, gocce di rugiada in un mattino di primavera.
Yes indeed. Cornett truly is as "a ray of sunshine piercing the shadows".
Qué delicia... It is great!
Thank You very much!
VIVA JORDI SAVALL Y COMPANIA
Wonderful.
I had the joy of seeing and hearing Jordi Savall some years ago in Madeira, the island where I live ^_^ So marvellous ^_^
Es de cuando en España se hacia la mejor música del mundo.
sublime...!
me fascina este instrumento, tiene algo de alegre y tambien un dejo de tristeza
Gorgeous!
modern composers who can create barok, its wonderfull. Nice to discover this composer.
Magnifique partage ! Merci ! Bonne journée !
impressionant!
Merveilleux ensemble de musiciens!

so beautiful, whenever i am excited, it calms me down listening to this
splendido

I love the canario my favorite music form!

simonaris the title and composer are in the starts of the video; see in 0,05.
im luthier and it's, in effect, a vihuela. Enjoy ancient music!
I very much second the notion --> listening to this is just like cleaning up your mind from all that romantic mess. feels good ~ nikolaimedtner
Bravo!
tienes parte de razon, pero no olvides, ESPAÑA siempre será grande mires donde la mires....

Jordi is George in Catalan
Thanks a lot for info, for czech viewers ...: "Ž" :-)
Sorry, I was wrong, it is the Canarios from Ostinato and it starts at 5:03. great song .
I think in Barcelona is easier to find them. Last summer he played in Sitges; I was about to see him but I couldn't... Schade!

I play baroque violin and rebec. So if someone tell me who composed (arranged) them, I'll try to play them. I searched several dance books of renaissance era for those songs before, but I couldn't find them.
I think in this video he's playing a vihuela, not a baroque guitar.
What composer is this and what release is this from?
Unfortunately it is not, I have the CD and these songs are not on it. There is a Canarios (improvisation) but they are not the same piece, I think the one on Ostinato is better =)
Does anyone know what are these songs and who composed them?
I believe this is 'Canarios (Improvisation)' from the Savall/Hespèrion XXI album 'Ostinato'. Can anyone confirm that?
anyone know what particular piece they are playing?
Very nice!
Please check out my new performance of some french baroque music by Robert de Visée aswell!
Does anyone know the names of the pieces of music they are playing. Is it recorded anywhere?
First two are Pavan's #1 and #6 by Luis Milan. Been recorded probably hundreds of times, of course these are Savall's wonderful arrangements.
CD: "Ministriles Reales" - HESPÈRION XXI: ruclips.net/video/VitcUIynGkk/видео.html ;-)
Great performance by the great master and his equally well performing ensemble.

la 2ª es "guardame las vacas"

Barrejar música i política és, senzillament, estúpid. Jordi Savall, Pau Casals i tants altres catalans il.lustres són personatges universals
En la Edad Media,exístia la Corona de Aragón,y el rey era aragonés.... Capilla Real ARAGONESA...por que si es catalana,sería condal !!!
Grr... the camerawork is a little annoying. I like watching movies like this to see the players techniques, and the person on the cameras never looks at the cornettist when he is actually playing anything of interest...

Prou, BASTA, stop!! de feixistes españols a tots els comentaris de videos!!!!!!!
Deixeu els catalans universals
