Okay that’s what that old guy says in Amadeus ...

Hello Salieri!

ot4kon yeeees, exactly.

@@discolevity1035 the old guy? lol, what disrespect. Maestro Salieri

Lol I could hear salieri’s voice

agreed❤❤❤

Yes, me, too. Such a heartbreaking melody.

so good! and Oliver really captures the longing quality of that melody when it switches to minor

@@OboeFiles is that what happens at 2:05? I’m not a musician, I just know that there’s a shift and I wondered if it was just a new phrase or a time change or a key change. (This is the curse of the passionate lover of music who doesn’t know anything about music.) But I was just telling my husband that shift reminds me of the part of Zauberflöte where Pamina talks about her father giving her the flute. It’s one of my favorite operas - some people only see the cuteness and fun of it, but to me it’s so full of mystery and humanity - and I wonder if it’s because it reminds me of the Gran Partita? Or does the Gran Partita remind me of Flute? Or maybe just because it’s all Mozart. :)

@@TrishBenedict True talk!

hai lai!

He loved the music, hated the man.

My favorite too. Touch my soul.

It is definitely one of my favorites, every time I hear it It takes me back as what was Mozart thinking while composing it..

Totally !

It does the same to me. It's so beautiful.

It was a good movie.

You go out thinking its going to be another overcast day but all the flowers bloomed during the night, filling the air with their sweet smell...and then, the clouds part, you catch the last few rays of sunrise. And you dont want to go back inside ever again.

This masterpiece was composed during the "naturalist" movement of the end of the 18th century. That's why it sounds like a celebration of nature.

It was composed as background music for a party, and I think its meant to emulate a conversation among a group of people: this person says something, that person says something, someone has good news, someone tells a sad story, someone says a joke and everyone laughs. Thats kind of how I read this piece.

Even more beautiful now in this mad world, wish so many more lovely people heard this, bless you and good wishes

The issue is the basset horns; they’re used so little elsewhere that it makes the performance of this rare

The Grand Partita is actually performed quite a bit, but the basset horns pose a problem as it is difficult to get a good matched pair, plus many clarinetists hate playing them despite the fact that Mozart wrote extra parts for them in the Magic Flute, plus the Requiem.....and the parts are sublime.

Yes! In my opinion this Serenade is one of Mozart‘s best pieces. As an b-clarinetist, it is absolutely magical to play this masterpiece.

I agree, this music is so fearfully gentle and calm.

Es la que suena en Amadeus cuando Salieri descubre quien es Mozart en la presentacion de este con Joseph de Austria, Salieri la describe como " La música de Dios"

Gai

I cry because it is too beautiful

Yes, it is one of Mozart's most stirring compositions. Many emotions come up -- such is Mozart's genius that he can evoke from over a wide range of responses.

Not all tears are bitter.

You are not alone...

Say that to Justine. "Nooo I want to build this unbelievably crappy Magic Cave instead of classic music and wine..."

me toooo but the version from the movie not this one sorry

Play this, then Laudate, then Ave Verum and really descent into a bath of tears.

i wouldn't fret too much about the simplistic structure of pop music and how it's celebrated, it comes and goes at incredible speed, it's simply just a different genre, mozart will be continued to be celebrated for literally as long as humanity continues

I think you’ll find that the classical composers had their cyclical chordal expositions and recapitulations as well. 😀

The world is filled with unappreciative oafs who could never really hear the beauty that is happening here. Incapable of it. I realized a long time ago that I was not going to worry about what pop culture became -- a spiritless enterprise that is geared to sell recordings. The objective being to make someone a lot of money, and that they struggle to attain at whatever the cost. An unkind word for it: whoring.

Do you think those pop stars will be remembered 230 years after their deaths as Mozart is?

the movie good even though there were lies in the movie about mozart

OMG SAME I ADORE THIS

Right?...

Oui c'est d'une luminosité absolue , c'est miraculeux

This was simply the best comment i have ever heard regarding what Mozart and his Heart wanted to leave to humanity: Peace, Beauty and Harmony... perfect synthesis, congratulations! 🥰

Because that movement is very very difficult, you need to be very focused for it to sound like this.

Plus, they’re playing it over and over for weeks, if not months… I am sure they have had their fair share of emotions during practice sessions

Somebody watched Amadeus.

Ummm.. we didn't. We were created as we are.. nothing evolves, everything devolves left to it's own. This music reveals the golden thread of Our Fathers handiwork in our lives.

A questo ci ha pensato Peter Sheaffer...

Basset horns, not bass clarinets. They are closer to alto clarinets in size, but really have their own unique, soprano clarinet sound...nothing like a bass clarinet in that range.

Never too late, ...and you’re already “there “ if you’re enjoying it. 👍

@RobertHoovers right, you're already 'there' 🙂 If you do want to delve into details def check out Howard Goodalls docs!

hai lai!

That movie helped me appreciate Mozart as I never had before, and helped me be a better interpreter of his work.

Not only the bass, but the 2nd oboe, 2nd clarinet, 2nd basset horn, and 2nd bassoon are also ostinato instruments throughout the movement. I think bassoon 2 is actually doubling the bass.

@@coloraturaElise Yes, I now can pick out the bassoon.

Have seen the movie?

@@Herman6507 He most likely did if he referenced that, and he states another vision for the music as opposed to the one in the movie; and his vision of a rocking carriage crossing a serene countryside is a good description for the beginning of this piece.
