Corelli - Viola da Gamba Sonata in D Major (arrangement)

[edudaviola]

I know this arrangement and it's incredibly well done! And well played too. Bravo!

[IsmailAjal]

Pleasent Pictures.

[Filipe0costas]

Essa musica é maravilhosa, corelli sempre tem ótimas sonatas a nos oferecer !

[dolofonos]

Suzuki method does have an arguable worth to those with dyslexia; though I don't condone it personally, it had an apparent benefit to a dyslexic friend of mine.

[doggydogface]

Who plays the gamba on this recording?

[sandisandi]

Oh, my friend, Arcangelo...

[sandisandi]

Great Corelli!!!

[TurkishRose91]

What kind of viola da gamba is this (i.e. tenor, bass...)?

[KarlMartell732]

THIS is music !!! Nothing more to say about !!

[susanauruguay1]

SUENA EXCELENTE! CORELLI ES MARAVILLOSO.

[GothicalSOberhauser]

How beautiful!

[ThePoliticalMusician]

I am so addicted to this piece, I like the violin version but the gamba version sounds more baroque.

[goshinman50]

I love the italians. This is some rich sound...

[Socrates24816]

Oh please, don't mention Suzuki and the gamba in the same sentence unless you are talking about how horrible Suzuki is, and how he should NEVER attempt the gamba. I mean really, he already screwed up the harp and piano... He tried to flute. What else does he need to screw up now?

[HARMONICO101]

He also screwed up violin royally! Listen to the Suzuki version of Corelli's "La Folia". He cut out half of it and added in romantic style passages!

[ThePolandball]

@HARMONICO101

That's because it's trying to highlight certain underlying techniques. Suzuki didn't make his method for listening, he made it for learning. I've taken his method since infancy right alongside RCM's syllabus, and I can tell you that learning scales by hearing them outlined in a piece is far superior to reading them on a piece of paper. That aside, thanks for the upload mate :)

[ThePoliticalMusician]

@HARMONICO101 I played the La Folia in SB6, all of those variations are Corelli's. Check them out on IMSLIP and you will see a match.

[yarrtiscrapulence]

@Socrates24816 hahahaha yay :D suzuki should be fucking shot!

[ThePoliticalMusician]

@yarrtiscrapulence Amen.

[ThePoliticalMusician]

This would sound cool on viola too, but it would still sound better on the gamba. I think Suzuki should have made a viola da gamba book series, if he did I would be playing the gamba.

[123BubberMiley]

What exactly is the viola da gamba? I've always loved baroque music but never knew what that is. is it some special kind of viola? yeah, I'm ignorant. haha.

[HARMONICO101]

It's a member of the viol family of instruments. The viola da gamba is technically a bass viol. It is held between the legs like a cello, but it has 5-7 strings, a fretboard, and a bow that is held underhand. They viol family had their heyday in the Renaissance, but only the bass viol was popular in the later Baroque. The French were big fans.

On my channel, seach up Marais - Chaconne For Solo Viola da Gamba. There is a picture of the composer with the intrument across his lap.

[grandadpoppyable]

@123BubberMiley The russian girl Olga Gjoya is about nthenbest exponent of the ordinary Viola held under the chin. And God took Yo Yo's abosolute worshipped favourite Du Pre very early the barstard.

[debartzen]

Hermosa en sus distintos movimientos.Sentimiento y contención en sus interpretes.

[aelfricbetera]

gambas are unique; let us preserve this heritage..

[AngeMarais]

Non mi piace il suo suono... Preferisco la versione di Guido Balestracci.

[romavictor1SPQR]

Can't believe this is neglected. One of my favourite Corelli sonata. The second movement especially. Very interesting sound too.

[HARMONICO101]

YES! I love the second movement. Absolutely delightful.

Here is a little bit of attention for ya:

It's bloody marvelous!
