Sarabanda from the D minor Partita by J.S. Bach

[drag0nsknight]

I have to say excellent playing, although this song played at a church at what seems to be midnight would scare me away lol!

[clevernickname70]

Bravo. Your intonation and rhythm are excellent. However, there is a tender melancholy to this movement and I would like to see you bring that quality out more in your phrasing.

You play very beautifully and a clean sound but I played this piece and you don't have a big distinction in your dynamics and I would recommend a little more emotion and musicality because it's too technical and sometimes musicality makes a piece sound better. Like some of the cadences that ended a phrase could be exaggerated by holding on to the note a little longer. That's it. Great job though =]

[bouboucheee]

It's amazing because you play a lot of pieces!! Everytime I search on youtube one piece that I'm playing at the momentI find your beautiful interpretations! You are very gifted and born to play violin, I think =)

Thanks!

[shellygenevieve]

is it sarabande or sarabanda? cause i'm playing a bach sarabande, so jw.

[IsaacBickerstaffEsq]

It's zarabanda.

It's also the first Latin American dance craze to hit Europe, in the mid 1500s. And the first Latin American dance to be banned as obscene, the original "Forbidden Dance"

[NunoMiguel1976]

An Angel of beauty playing the violin with perfection.

As good as your previously posted performances are, this performance of the Bach Sarabanda is miles ahead. This is more than a greatly talented young person....to my ears, this is a thoroughly matured musician. I don't so much hear the virtuoso performance of this work....rather what I hear is the breadth of the phrasing, the give and take that turns notes on paper into a grandly expressive musical statement.

You just keep getting better and better. Wish me luck on my first recital! I have to play Bach Violin Double

[eboyinc]

Beautiful...Wow!!!

[rhea8909]

good!!!

[floopydisc]

Wow... I don't know what it is about these Sonatas and Partitas. Despite their apparent lack of structure and sometimes 'excitement', they are so 'charged' and do not cease to charm and move me!

Well played (once again)! Lovely rendition. Clear sound, right amount of feeling. Love it!!!

[sasha42196]

floopydisc, what do you mean - "lack of structure and excitement"?  Surely you are not talking about this partita?! You gotta learn how to listen to Bach!

[floopydisc]

@sasha42196

... What I mean is: put this piece next to say Beethoven's fifth, Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik or even Bach's own violin double concerto and probably 100% of lay people would go for the latter!

This is a bit more 'inaccessible', not so intuitively understood. You can't 'whistle it in the streets'.

But again, make no mistake: I adore this music. It's deep, it's rich and it's stirring! I'm a violinist myself and I think Bach was one of the biggest.

Did I just redeem myself? :)

[rosendojuarez]

Incredible mastership in a so young girl. Thanks very much Alice!!

[chopin1992]
