I was for a long time enamoured of many of the early music and baroque ensembles of the past. So many names, I'd have to dig into my iTunes folders to see. And as the 21st century grew, I knew we were losing these jewels of musical performance, one by one. JUST RECENTLY, I happened upon the wonderful performance of the Kaffee Kantata by the NBS. I was stunned. Not only beautiful baroque playing, but the acting was stunning! And not just the acting of the three vocalists, but also of the other performers in this little cafe that had been set up. Everyone was interacting with everyone, musically and dramatically. I never enjoyed the Kaffee Kantata more and I binged on it, playing it, by now, about 1/2 dozen times. THEN, I started exploring the catalogue of performances. I love all of the concertos, and cut my teeth on the Brandenburg 3, yes, with Wendy Carlos, before before. NOW, I have found what I thought had gone away. The NBS is my new go-to for Baroque music, especially Bach. And they give me a motivation to go beyond the concertos into other works. Wah hoo! Another place to visit, and more music to enjoy. Thank you, Sato.
I am so thankful this man's work and aspiration, and for the work of the whole group. What a beautiful contribution to the health and life of all people. Such a gift to us all. Thank you Sato!
This is true leadership... and these musicians are so greatly lucky to be inspired by him! Congratulations to Sato and all those wonderful soloists playing with him... So absolutely perfect 👏👏👏👏
¡Extraordinario! Sato's leadership style comes from the depths of his being. He is the most humble of humble. ¡Extraordinary in every way is he! ¡Bravísimo Shunske!
¡Brillantes por demás! Un verdadero regalo que nos muestren el trabajo que hay detrás de cada interpretación. Mil gracias por compartir tan sublime música. ¡FELICITACIONES POR DOQUIER! 💛❤💜💙💚🌝⚘🌞🌙🗽🌍🎁🎶
Sato, such a talented and beautiful person. As a débutante ou intermédiaire violoniste what Bach sonata and partitas are the easiest to learn? I guess starting with Bach Double in Suzuki book 3 and then Brandenburg 3?
My story with this piece was from 9th/10th grade orchestra. I had just started playing the bass, and while other musicians in the orchestra were more experienced, the orchestra itself was at a lower level of skill than the senior HS orchestra. So this was a simple piece to play in terms of rhythm and key. But to actually master the nuances that Bach intended through his groupings and flow requires an understanding of music theory as well as historical music and dances. So the Brandenburg 3 is easy to learn, but like many Bach pieces, difficult to master.
..Maestor, all my life i am listening music, not being musician myself other amateur playing, but, yes, you are SUUUPER GIFTED you should focus on Mozart, Beethoven and Shubert, period!
2:10 Three is a Western World- standard written essay form: Thesis (orchestra), three Topics (sections each expose one topic) and a Conclusion (tutti, all together repeat major points), so no surprise there, it is just to make them work! (maestro it would be life appreciation it you order them play Mozart Horn concert K. 495 or K.412/514 Rondo, thank you from son of violin teacher, amateur single horn in F player, father of data science engineers that like music too..)
I think it is possible that there are people who like to watch videos like these and they don't speak english so well; when it is written and they can read at the same time it is easier to understand!
Sato what an inspiration, talented player and really effective leader, NBS are lucky.
You can only have that type of leadership if you are truly humble. Sato is a treasure.

One of the most beautiful pieces of music played by one of the best ensembles in the world.
What a great musical Leader!! I bow down!!🙏🙏🙏

사토 슌스케... 한국에 있는 팬인데 너무나 좋아하고 당신의 음악을 사랑합니다
Amazing to me how many of these master musicians are in fact so soft spoken.
My favorites, the concert number 3 and 6. It is impossible not to see the videos on this channel, they are of unsurpassed quality. Sato, the best
Santo-san, I wish someday I would come to Netherlands to see and listen to you and your friends at the NBS play Bach...
Thank you for this discussion of my favourite piece of music in the world
That Harpsichord is beautiful, you know I have an Italian Harpsichord myself. It even has a short octave!😊
how I envy you!
Thanks for this behind the curtain look at Bach in action.

💛❤💜💙💚🌝⚘🌞🌙🗽🌍🎁🎶
Toda una cátedra en materia de conducción de un grupo de músicos para dar vitalidad a una obra de arte y para que la escuchemos con oídos frescos.
Never in my life have I clicked so fast
Super interesting! Thank you for the upload

thanks for adding accurate subtitles
Was für einen genialen und unvergleichlichen japanischen Violinisten gibt es in den Niederlande! Er spricht auch gut Englisch.
Nice interview! I noticed that Sato-san does not even have slight a Japanese accent. His English is perfect.
That’s because he was partially raised in the US
Active players is very special leadership ! And it pays off with exuberance of the piece that has been lost to zombilization
4:40 haha, Maestro great sense of humor, love it. (well... get viola parts instead, :)
Thank for your insights.
..Maestor, all my life i am listening music, not being musician myself other amateur playing, but, yes, you are SUUUPER GIFTED you should focus on Mozart, Beethoven and Shubert, period!
Very good.
hiiiiiiiiiiiijoleeeeee....ese genial SATO hasta en la cabellera o peluca de J S BACH se parece....excelente violinista y musico.....
So Exactly explained
The sixth Brandenburg concerto sounds similar to this one, texturally, forsothe both hath waxen sinusoids.
That harpsichord is gorgeous.

het klonk echt netjes.
Twoset Violin needs to hear this;)
4:40
Sato, I love the performances SO MUCH, but the tempo feels rushed doesn’t it? I feel like modern baroque performances pick the tempo really fast.
(It IS written in cut time.)
Fascinating film - but why impose the English subtitles when he is speaking in English?
*cue illuminati theme song*
No lo se; pero a muchos se nos hace mas fácil entenderlo escrito que escuchado. 🤷🏻♂️

@@mariafragkiadaki1360 that makes sense...
Not convinced about the three-ness of everything.
