Serious Musicians Behaving Badly Photo Gallery by Richard Calmes at pbase.com

Serious Musicians Behaving Badly

Top musicians such as these from New Trinity Baroque have been photographed dozens of time so I wanted something different. They were in their "serious" performance clothes. I asked them if there was a pose that they always wanted to do but never have. They came up with all of these poses on their own! See also See http://www.newtrinitybaroque.org

If you think this gallery has merit, please vote so others may see it.

Like always Richard I enjoyed your gallery you bring the best out of your subjets

Kathryn		26-Feb-2009 02:30
This is fantastic! I'm a classical musician and everyone says we're snooty, overly serious people. Galleries like this, of course, show the truth. More people need to see this, that's for sure, to understand that we're all just kind of nuts. (our trombone section had a propensity once to shout "ARRRR!" in a pirate-esque manner every time the conductor said "Alright, tutti at letter R." Now you know the truth about orchestras)

Guest		13-Jan-2009 19:52
Very nicely done, despite the disgraceful behaviour of the models! (V)

So many bad musicians behave (too) seriously... I like the visible complicity between you and the musician. They seem to have a lot of fun, just as we have. I also like the contrast between the hight quality of the portraits and the crazyness of the subject.

This reminds me a recording of the Symphony No1 'Cassical' by Prokofiev, made by the Montréal Symphony Orchestra directed by Charles Dutoit, filmed by Barbara Willis Sweete and Andria Marthaler. A funny recording, something uncommun in the world of classical music, as your pictures are.

I'm glad to see this one, I know its hard for them to keep up the facade after a performance. Very well done.

Fantastic gallery - where did you photograph the musicians (i.e, which orchestra/ensemble)? Very clever. Voted. Cheers

Wonderful, Richard, a little perfect symphony on the notes of a great "Opera Buffa". I adore the idea and the elegance of every single photo. Marisa

A really fun idea - some of the images work better than others - the men especially are really beingf impish with this - very nice!

Pauline		02-Sep-2006 20:27
Heh heh heh, I see what you mean! Incredible.... The angles Illusions Delusions Provocative The shadows The humor Captured energy I've not seen something like this before I absolutely love the title Some of these people so serious, so dedicated but had fun on this shoot. It's wonderful Are these people naturally this adaptable? Did Richard the imp corrupt these musicians? I love this gallery and voted!! :)

What a great gallery! Thanks for making me chuckle.

Guest		02-Sep-2006 13:32
Great way to start a long weekend! Do you come up with the poses or is it a collaborative effort? Another great marketing effort! V

Guest		02-Sep-2006 04:58
Richard, this gallery of New Trinity Baroque musicians is even better than the one of "Serious Musicians". BRAVO! Once again, thank you for your time and talent for shooting these photos!! And one small piece of information to all the visitors - THESE ARE NOT MODELS - THEY ARE ALL REAL MUSICIANS, MEMBERS OF ATLANTA'S PERIOD INSTRUMENT ORCHESTRA, NEW TRINITY BAROQUE (online at WWW.NEWTRINITYBAROQUE.ORG). :o)

Wonderful character portraits. GMV

The Third Side		01-Sep-2006 22:33
And I thought this gallery would be about The Rolling Stones. : ))

Arnulf M. Elvevold		01-Sep-2006 21:44
Behaving badly? I couldn't disagrre more. Beautiful photos all of them. It is to me impossible to see who's not serious,

Jeff		01-Sep-2006 21:28
Well taken, and pretty funny. Great personalities for a bunch of musicians! I'm a violist; we can be a pretty boring lot.
