Stravinsky - Canção Russa - Viola de Arco - Yuri Bashmet

[Kaiannaza]

Anyone know where I could find the sheet music for this? preferably with a piano accompaniment?

[goodyones]

What is the size of Bashmet viola?

[MrMKH2010]

@goodyones Bashmet plays a Testore viola made in 1758. It is in the 16+ inch range.

[amenlu]

ay es hermosamente rusa! me desanima bastante que fuese compuesta para violin, como todo pues... pero en viola suena hermoso! sobre todos si la toca Bashmet

[ALF0NS77]

ME FACINA EL SONIDO DE ESTE VIOLISTA LO ADMIRO MUCHO ....

[8franetta8]

[Ilroneth]

Una version innovadora... realmente excelente!

[AntiguoShergot]

[CryingViolon]

You could listen it by rostropovitch too. It's also very awesome.

[AntiguoShergot]

yes, Ferras (a very famous violinist )recorded this song too. Thanks for the info, I'd listen the Rostropovich version! ;)

[ernanecorreia]

Minha namorada toca muuuuito melhor, e com uma diferença: ela toca só pra mim.

[maxhansendk]

Toooo slooow.....

[williejax2]

every rehearsal the viola player takes a piece of paper out of his case and reads it then picks up his bow and viola and plays it. the oboe took at look at the piece of paper when the viola was out on long break: "viola left, bow right."

[xxjewledxxromance]

I think that's actually pretty funny, and I'm a violist :P some people take things to personally...

[soadfan]

[MILAMGM]

wow toda esa historia!! toda una trayectoria musical...

creo que todos los violistas llegamos a ese momento de decisión que vale totalmente la pena!!!

[cocolateee]

im doing a report on him.

its super fun because i get to listen to his music while im typing it up.

he started off with the violin and the guitar (at the same time)(thats when the beatles where in) then he gave up on the violin and wanted to play just the guitar. but then he decided to try the viola. he liked the viola more than the guitar. :D

[Legallybrunette1234]

Because violas are awsome!!!! ^_^

[chayesc]

@Legallybrunette1234 THAT'S RIGHT 

[whatfockyoudoing1]

@Legallybrunette1234 awsome wow its me

[ofcoursehesthefarmer]

@Legallybrunette1234 _ It is awe-inspiring, it is it is. I am an old man - well stricken in years, bent of back - and yet - and yet - when I hear this music my spirits soar and I feel rejuvenated and full of hope. I pull off my greasy semen-bespattered mackintosh, hurl it down on the floor, lift my arms in the air and yell I AM A MAN!

[TheKeenanBoy]

@ofcoursehesthefarmer

Whoa. Well, hope you didn't strain yourself ;)

[ptolemais9]
