now thats emotion put into a piece of music

[Pretendkid]

I don't play the violin, but I was pleasantly surprised to find polyphony on violin. I love how each voice is distinct!

Whoever gave this a thumbs down is DEAF.

Asi el violin expresa el dolor y contesta su compañero tambien explicando la misma historia de algo o lo mismo vivimos todos a consecuencia del dia a dia Bach habla con la musica de la manera mas bella ...los altos y las florituras hacen que la conversación de ambos se manifisten en plen a armonia y es terco con la realidad...incluso mas alla parece tener algo que es muy eterno y que vive para sienmpre ...PRECIOSO...

Best version for me.

It is Itzhak Perlman because if you listen to the triple stops, he plays all the notes at the same time. Most violinists group the chords as a double stop and a single note or the other way around as it is much easier. Also at 1:54 he plays a triple stop and 3 individual notes. most musicians would re-emphasize the chord on every note. I believe Itzhak plays it as Bach intended. Bach was a pianist not a violinist. And violins at that time had a flatter bridge making those chords easier to play.

@kgm0313 i´m sorry, but Bach played violin and probably was a good violinist. People think that Bach you have to play like kill the acord "because it was composed for klave", but in my opinion that is a big error. I don´t like the agresive acords EVERY TIME, it´s sounds like heavy metal...

If you can heard sonatas & partitas by Kremer you can feel what i´m talking about, is complitly horrible

[Neofito89]

@kgm0313 i meant he played violin, but of course he was a great klave player too.

And sorry for my english :P

[luderchris958]

this is not itzhak perlman

[tenshinecko]

When I was younger, I used to think classical music was boring. Then I took music classes; the people back then were geniuses!!!

I love this piece, it has a sorta 'swaying' feel in the notes. I can feel the emotion Bach put into this. ^^

[ConsumptionMayCause]

itzahk perlman. i have this on disc. he is the best violinist to have ever lived

[polymath7]

@ConsumptionMayCause He's certainly the best violinist alive, unless there's credible rival I'm not able to think of.
