Without knowing anything about this piece, and upon hearing the first few notes, my eyes began to tear up and i got goosebumps. What an amazing feeling.
I know opinions are as numerous as the interpretations of this piece, but Perlman plays it with such longing and passion, it actually out-sorrows and definitely out-tenders other interpretations from greats.
Originalmente, "el divino Bach", como bien lo llamo alguna vez Nietzche; compuso esta obra inspirado por la tristeza de su esposa muerta, asi que bien puede ser un lamento en lugar de una chacona, es sin embargo la cumbre; lo prematuro temporalmente hablando, como una explosion de rayos gamma, opacada solamente por la grandeza de la gran explosion que dio origen al universo
ah I just made the classic mistake of always thinking of the worst - in this case, thinking you were an idiot wo can neither read the title nor hear the sound of a violin.
I am pretty sure what we hear is the 1714, for he hasn´t used much other instruments, especially in the recordings.
I remember that in an interview, many years ago, Perlman said that he used 2 different ("high range") violins to make these recordings of the sonatas and partitas of Bach. One is indeed the Soil Stradivarius 1714 (that Menuhin gave him), the other a Guarneri del Gesu, though I don't know which one. I also can't tell you on which of both he recorded this Chaconne.
Dear Maestro Perlman, My middle ear has been infected for 6 weeks with fluid dampening my hearing. Today listening to this piece at volume 10, my ears began to equalize and my hearing improved half way through the recording. I've known you to be the master of master violinists but did not know you were a Doctor of ENT as well. Thank you for this miracle, your impossibly wondrous playing, and jolly personality. God Bless You Sir
Oh god, he is amazing. His undulating tones sound like the lilting warbles of a nightingale at one moment and then like the breathing of the wind through leaves at another. The luscious quality of sound produced by his violin almost allows it to seem alive, with the way that it cries, the way that it laughs, and the way that it sings.
how does he make it sound like the main voice is emphasized almost as if someone was singing it or playing it seperately so smoothly through those heavy 16th notes? =O at 6:11- 6:43 ?
@frenchxtoastx87 It's a wonderful combination of fast double stops/triple stops there. Sometime Perlman makes his performances different from the original piece. It's brilliant nevertheless.
If you enjoy this, then look up "Helene Grimaud Busoni" in the YouTube search bar and watch the video that lasts 14:59 uploaded by borz427. You won't regret it.
This is one of the most phenomenal pieces ever composed. It's no wonder that Brahms marveled at it and said that if he ever thought it was in him to compose such a piece, he would faint dead away from the shock.
Quel son, l'espace est rempli!! Des vibrations à faire pleurer!
"Parce qu'il recrute mes neuf filles, voici le premier art humain: aucun n'accèderait à la beauté s'il ne passait point par la Musique." s'écrie Mnemosyne, mère des Muses
I've listened to the others play this piece, Hahn, Heifetz and Menuhin, but Perlman's interpretation has got to be - hands down - my ultimate favorite. I don't know how he manages it but Bach's Chaconne just plays like silk in Perlman's hands!
@AvuncularAvarice If baroque violins were much richer in tone, they wouldn't have gone through the technological advances to improve the tone (and according to you, make it weaker/thinner). Baroque violins do not even remotely sound richer, stop trying to act as if you know what you're talking about.
You might prefer the tone of a baroque violin, but it's not richer.
I'm into the sound of this violin -- the "Soil" Strad is it? -- ; Itzhak demonstrates its use very nicely here. I'm sorry you can't all have one . . .
This is wonderful...that's it...Itzak doesn't rush it ... it breathes as he plays it, not gulped down like cheap wine..I'm sure Johann meant it to be played like this..David M. in Austin
I also prefer Hahns version because I'm quite a constructivist and really adore her accuracy in playing. That's just how I like listening-perfect Intonation and timing.
But I can see the appeal of Perelmans performance, he brings out the emotional side of this piece. In the end it's all a matter of taste, every interpretation contains it's own special beauty.
It sure would be nice to watch a classical music video on youtube without seeing people constantly trying to argue in the comments section about how someone else did it better. By the way, great rendition Mr. Perlman.
Who cares what style it is when it is the individual expression of an artiste's heart and feelings? No one can imitate anyone else. I know for a fact that even composers do not interpret their own music the same way depending what they want to express.
Why argue about conventions when it goes straight to your heart and brings tears to your eyes? That is the intention of all music of all styles ultimately.
I feel this is music of unbelievable depth. Perlman rocks!
bach was my fav b4 even hearing this but now...my respect for him just skyrocketed even more.....i cant imagine what he coulda wrote with the violin techniques discovered around the romantic era
Listening to a few versions, this is head and shoulders above the rest in my opinion. If this indeed was written lamenting the death of his first wife, has there ever been a better translation of emotion into music?
does anyone know where I can find a list of great classical violin music, there is a particular song I am looking for I do not know the name but I know what it sounds like. If someone could be ever so kind to point a violinist in the right direction?
@alexalexa210 you only posted an unoriginal unfunny "people who dislike" spam comment. this comments annoy me. +you don't have to play it as good as Perlman to have an oppinion on Perlman's playing, just as one does not have to be a chicken to like or dislike the omelette. Every time I see argumentum ad hominem used, I consider the one who uses it an ass, a jerk or a fool. and for some reason I was not rude enough to consider you a fool.
@erghtrfgh If you've not gotten anything good to say, don't say anything at all. You can go to another person's video and start an argument there with people who would actually stoop low enough to act upon your melon coley-bound reprisals. Your comment serves no purpose in a video such as this, but to make you look like an idiot will everyone else is here to just enjoy the elegant music. Take your foolish subliminal arrogance somewhere else.
@TehTacoNinja yup. all that I absolutely can say to those who post "ppl who dislike" comments. after all - if they don't have anthing good to say... oh, and wh are you making that comment on m comment then? guess your feeling of disgust is better then mine then, is it?
@erghtrfgh Yes, it is actually. That's because I just can't help but state fact towards someone who feels the need to prostate themselves above others and persecute someone because they think they should have the need to lash out at them for simple pleasure. Clearly, you don't have to post it, you don't have to be so self-indulgent in tormenting someone, but yet you do anyways. That's why I comment. What I have to say I neither good or bad, just genuine fact.
@TehTacoNinja yehyehyeh. your oppinion on me is really A Fact, yadayadayada. how about a fact that "ppl who dislike" comments are ubiquitous on youtube? how about the fact that these comments do lack originality? how about alexalexa210 implying that those who do not like this music do that because they think they can play it better, because, obviously, no one who can't play Bach on violin good enough is allowed to judge this violin performance?stop talking about me and say smth on the topic, eh?
@erghtrfgh Of course it is. Just like how your comment is fact too, but that isn't my point. My point is that you shouldn't have to rage at someone because of something like that, or do you feel you're special enough to have to point the obvious about their comment? It's even worse that you actually took their comment literally. Besides, there isn't any problem with them posting a comment about it, so why should it concern you? Comments like that are everywhere. What makes that one so special?
1) the fact that your opinion is a psyhological fact for you does not make it true statement cause you could be wrong - it's not the mathematics we are talkin about here. anyway you should back your opinion like that with some proof, for I can asure you that I do not feel like I am guilty in all the arrogance and idiocity that you charge me for. but that's not the point, is it? I might even be an arrogant idiot- that does not relate to our discussion here that much. now - on topic
2) According to me feeling special - I don't give a shit rly. maybe I am and maybe not - I've seen ppl rage about this type of comments here and there after all. You say that this comment was one of the many, and so it did not deserve to be raged at - well, so you admitt that this cliched comments are all over youtube? Why this exact comment?It just happen to be the last drop. Plus it was popular enough to be on the top and to be seen by me. Plus I had a bad day, mb.
@TehTacoNinja 3) eah, I took it literary, because in a way the literal meaning always stays with what you say, even if you are joking. whatever -how should I take this comments? as a joke? but I don't like annoying stale unfunny jokes like that,sorry. this jokes remind me of racist jokes rly - the majority is making fun of the minority, but this exact one had 'argumentum ad hominem' in it, a logical fallacy wich I happen to hate. But you say that's not the problem and it sould not be my concern.
@TehTacoNinja 4) after all - who am I to be concerned about smth that is of no concern for you, right (do you like that kind of finger-pointing? shall we both play this little game then? damn, it's good to see someone like you did 'stoop low enough' to have a conversation with a pitiful sorry fool like I am - hat makes my fist comment not that pitiable as you were stating). Yes, comments like that are everywhere. And that in my eyes IS the problem. not as huge as global warming - but still.
@erghtrfgh No, now you're misinterpreting what I said. I insinuated that your comment was low. It doesn't necessarily mean you are, but just that one simple comment. I never considered you to being a pitiful sorry fool, so I'm not stooping low just by talking to you. Your comment is what was low, and as such I merely acted upon that judgement. Sure, those unoriginal, spammed comments are everywhere, but you're not making it any better by replying to them. You're merely feeding the trolls.
@TehTacoNinja so then, it seems that the only problem with me is that I reacted on troll comment? sorry, but that was my reaction at the moment. what bugs me is that there are 22ppl who loved that troll comment. and why did you then come up with blame and insults upon mere me, and not the troll instead? if you ask me, I believe alexalexa210 was not even trolling - he was just being arrogant and unoriginal and unfunny - not more, nor less. why was my comment low? I just did justice to him there.
@erghtrfgh Sorry, but that was also just my reaction at the time. Yes, I do hate troll comments, but I also never liked it when someone replies to those troll comments, mostly because it almost starts unnecessary arguments within videos which, now that I think about it, I instead ended up doing since the troll never actually went against you. Your comment was low just because you replied to something that was that low to begin with. I understand the reason better now. I'm the one at fault here.
@TehTacoNinja It's good to see everything sorted out. Let me just add at the end that I am not going to make any sort of crusade on these "dislike" comments precisely for the reasons you named. yes, I did justice to his comment, but yes, I should care less about spam on the internet. it just annoys me, but I'll consider trying to behave. It's a pity trolls wount.
the 2 of you, kind people, would hopefully change your minds in 30 years...
the fact that the strongly questionable opinion of 2 teenagers can make "top comment" is one thing....but that 50+ people agree with it is outright pathetic, arrogant and utterly pityful...
it is so wunderful. an undescribable feeling of transcendence, weightlessness and splendour. its like light floating though a diamond. bachs music is perfect
this is played beautifully, but i might suggest that as it is written by bach, a baroque composer, vibrato is somewhat overused. but still, a fantastic piece of music, my favourite solo violin piece
@lovestruckstudent stfu i do listen to other music. My playlist jumps from classical to 90s to pop so stfu also y r u judging? U don't even listen to classical so y were u looking it up in the first place? Also they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder..... go figure .....
@lovestruckstudent seriously, u obviously dont listen to classical music so dont judge. The chaconne is one of the hardest pieces to play and the emotions weaved into the the piece by Bach is amazing and moving.
@lovestruckstudent hahaha shut up fool. If this song is shit and not 'real music' than why is it still played, performed and greatly admired by people today after all those years ago.. and i can assure you this song will continue to be played and admired in the future... so yeah... go fuck yourself wanka ^_^

@TehTacoNinja yehyehyeh. your oppinion on me is really A Fact, yadayadayada. how about a fact that "ppl who dislike" comments are ubiquitous on youtube? how about the fact that these comments do lack originality? how about alexalexa210 implying that those who do not like this music do that because they think they can play it better, because, obviously, no one who can't play Bach on violin good enough is allowed to judge this violin performance?stop talking about me and say smth on the topic, eh?

@erghtrfgh Of course it is. Just like how your comment is fact too, but that isn't my point. My point is that you shouldn't have to rage at someone because of something like that, or do you feel you're special enough to have to point the obvious about their comment? It's even worse that you actually took their comment literally. Besides, there isn't any problem with them posting a comment about it, so why should it concern you? Comments like that are everywhere. What makes that one so special?

@TehTacoNinja
1) the fact that your opinion is a psyhological fact for you does not make it true statement cause you could be wrong - it's not the mathematics we are talkin about here. anyway you should back your opinion like that with some proof, for I can asure you that I do not feel like I am guilty in all the arrogance and idiocity that you charge me for. but that's not the point, is it? I might even be an arrogant idiot- that does not relate to our discussion here that much. now - on topic

2) According to me feeling special - I don't give a shit rly. maybe I am and maybe not - I've seen ppl rage about this type of comments here and there after all. You say that this comment was one of the many, and so it did not deserve to be raged at - well, so you admitt that this cliched comments are all over youtube? Why this exact comment?It just happen to be the last drop. Plus it was popular enough to be on the top and to be seen by me. Plus I had a bad day, mb.

@TehTacoNinja 3) eah, I took it literary, because in a way the literal meaning always stays with what you say, even if you are joking. whatever -how should I take this comments? as a joke? but I don't like annoying stale unfunny jokes like that,sorry. this jokes remind me of racist jokes rly - the majority is making fun of the minority, but this exact one had 'argumentum ad hominem' in it, a logical fallacy wich I happen to hate. But you say that's not the problem and it sould not be my concern.

@TehTacoNinja 4) after all - who am I to be concerned about smth that is of no concern for you, right (do you like that kind of finger-pointing? shall we both play this little game then? damn, it's good to see someone like you did 'stoop low enough' to have a conversation with a pitiful sorry fool like I am - hat makes my fist comment not that pitiable as you were stating). Yes, comments like that are everywhere. And that in my eyes IS the problem. not as huge as global warming - but still.
erghtrfgh 7 months ago
@erghtrfgh No, now you're misinterpreting what I said. I insinuated that your comment was low. It doesn't necessarily mean you are, but just that one simple comment. I never considered you to being a pitiful sorry fool, so I'm not stooping low just by talking to you. Your comment is what was low, and as such I merely acted upon that judgement. Sure, those unoriginal, spammed comments are everywhere, but you're not making it any better by replying to them. You're merely feeding the trolls.
TehTacoNinja 7 months ago
@TehTacoNinja so then, it seems that the only problem with me is that I reacted on troll comment? sorry, but that was my reaction at the moment. what bugs me is that there are 22ppl who loved that troll comment. and why did you then come up with blame and insults upon mere me, and not the troll instead? if you ask me, I believe alexalexa210 was not even trolling - he was just being arrogant and unoriginal and unfunny - not more, nor less. why was my comment low? I just did justice to him there.

erghtrfgh 7 months ago
@erghtrfgh Sorry, but that was also just my reaction at the time. Yes, I do hate troll comments, but I also never liked it when someone replies to those troll comments, mostly because it almost starts unnecessary arguments within videos which, now that I think about it, I instead ended up doing since the troll never actually went against you. Your comment was low just because you replied to something that was that low to begin with. I understand the reason better now. I'm the one at fault here.
TehTacoNinja 7 months ago
@TehTacoNinja It's good to see everything sorted out. Let me just add at the end that I am not going to make any sort of crusade on these "dislike" comments precisely for the reasons you named. yes, I did justice to his comment, but yes, I should care less about spam on the internet. it just annoys me, but I'll consider trying to behave. It's a pity trolls wount.

this is played beautifully, but i might suggest that as it is written by bach, a baroque composer, vibrato is somewhat overused. but still, a fantastic piece of music, my favourite solo violin piece
