[tristan01101]

@2:21, Nima Ben David starts to get sleepy

[jude4312]

it seems like the camera zoom into players whenever they make funny faces.

[FernandRaynaud]

Wow, the music is perfect, but what a fantastic performance!!! It's so rare when you can feel every instrument so clearly.

[davehshs]

This music is so incredibly elegant and beautiful, with a subtle yearning for something that never quite seems to come within reach.

[EdleJulve]

Musica de Rameau!! genial la interpretacion!! ♫ ♪ ♫

[violatione]

I think that I'm in love with Nima!

[violinistx100]

Harpsichords are the bomb! :D

[rustydog1236]

What does 'Lapoplinière' mean? Very nice performance!

[3intelligents]

DELICATE Feelings&Sensibilities100% .  Rameau est content ! Et moi aussi ! Merci à prottestant7.

[Polluxgeminae]

I have no words to describe this... it's orgasmic!!

[kolektanto]

Bravo !

[EXA00HIT]

me encanta como toca la viladagamba esta señoraa

[FelipeValen]

So simple and beautiful

[UncleTito72]

I keep coming back to this video. The music just transports me away from my troubles.

[Harmonieuniverselle]

ça nous laisse imaginer comment étaient l'ambiance cher Mr. de La Pouplinière: quel intimité et quelle grâce!

[alexnax888]

gooodd!!!

[geoadvocate]

Such a wonderfully intimate piece, and a masterful performance! Love the "clink" of the clavecin at the very end! 5/5 and thanks for posting!

[Harmonieuniverselle]

haha I love the clink too!

[UncleTito72]

I love it.

[Snikkari]

No shes not blind, she is concentrating. Its very personal how people concentrate and I think it is very beautiful with Nima :)

[Videomama1972]

Not trying to be mean or anything, but is the older woman blind? She has such a strange expression on her face while playing..maybe she's just concentrating really hard. This is a beautiful piece of music:)

[violatione]

@Videomama1972 Would she were blind, she'd not have any music on the stand.

[arpicordio]

love nima love béatrice

[DuoContinuo]

cute!

[deepislandboy]

This reminds of a time in Vienna when my family and I were seeing the musical instrument collection in the Hapsburg palace and i pressed one of the keys on a very old harpsichord and almost got kicked out :P

[hmstroffury]

lmfao!!

omg!! i was soooo tempted to do the same!! but i wanted to see the rest of the collection.... xD

[deepislandboy]

Yea, good thing you didn't, this huge guard came out of no where and scolded me, and I was like 10 so it really scared the shit out of me lol

[8497289]

weird how you can't touch instruments whose sole purpose is to be touched to make music

[MozartIsFancylalala]

yeah because some instruments that have been put on dislay loose their value from not being played.

[hmstroffury]

@deepislandboy aww! haha.. scarred for life! xP

[Superdustmite]

the guy on the violin has kinda the same face as SNL's Adam Sanburg :0

[angryjalapeno]

Is that a guy?

[geotracker7]

There is SO MUCH to enjoy in this four minutes and 13 seconds...the "Languishing" at 1:48 - 1:50 and more overload at 3:03. For the longest time, i didn't understand what Nima's eye-roll at 2:24 was, but now I think I do....i'd love to be able to write to her & ask / verify.

[geotracker7]

Literally Fantastic! This is so far beyond any kind of "star" rating system. I absolutely LOVE these guys and the fact that they fully deeply -- on a spiritual level, understand everything about this music, such as using vibrato strictly as an ornament, and in exactly the right places and only those places...

[Signifer82]

Why is the harpsichord so far from the other players? I'd find difficult to play ensemble like that.

[DEFishback]

Love the minor at 2:41 and following.

[sambo75420]

WOW !!!

[osias10filho]

Simply beautiful

[imsohasome]

ahh! that dude doesn't have a chin rest on his violin! and his hand seems to be in a different position like. a little lower than what i was taught. and like wrist bent.(i was taught to keep it straight) and why does a harpsichord have 2 sets of keys? and is that a viol da gamba??

[direngrey2143]

1. that is a baroque violin (it is structurally different to a modern violin that you play - it has no chin rest; the fingerboard is shorter and at a different angle)

2. it is supposed to have 2 sets of keys - it's called a double manual harpsichord

3. yes, that is a viola da gamba

4. the reason why his hand is in a different position is bacause he is using a baroque violin bow (it is supposed to be held further down and hence cannot have a 'bent' wrist)

LEARN ABOUT EARLY MUSIC.

[8497289]

There's a few early violin schools that say different things about keeping a straight wrist on the bow hand. technically both are correct, however when playing on plain gut strings it helps to be in more control of the bow, also the bow is lighter. in the German style the bow is held further up the stick whilst in the italian school it is held closer to the frog.

[jmtappenden]

Incredibly beautiful music performed brilliantly & superbly.

[jasjjb]

Heard it again today - loved it still! A superb piece and this group of three musicians clearly play in high quality - and with much enthouisiasm ! Thanks for posting !

[dakaha1]

wow:):):)

[Quergitarre]

eyvul agha! *****

[PeriodinstrumentfaN]

i think Gallant is the term when referring to music ryt ? :-/

[notbluenotbrown]

I think mean "Style Galant" ( characteristic of late 18th century Baroque music such as Rameau, Couperin, Vivaldi, the sons of Bach, etc). It is pronounced "Steel Gal-Lont".

Yup, I just googled :)

[PeriodinstrumentfaN]

if one reads it «à la française» then yes it is pronounced so. ;)

[FernandRaynaud]

Incroyable!

[ZeroX810]

viole de gambe is sometimes even greater than cello

[KarlAmade]

sometimes?

It should never be compared with the cello!

The gamba will always be best in it's class, the cello in another. =)

[dolofonos]

I myself enjoy the cello in the consort with its own family, but for continuo in such an ensemble as this: always the viol!

[PeriodinstrumentfaN]

i second that !!! :-)

[lalungenuictdestens]

Sometimes? ALWAYS! cello is not more than just a big violin.

[animeviolalord]

Actually, a big viola.

[lalungenuictdestens]

No no no... cellos and violas (da gamba) come from different "families" despite their smiliar shape and size... cellos are that! : Big violins... and viola da gamba originally was a vihuela played with a bow.

[animeviolalord]

What I mean t was this...a cello is like a big VIOLA (as in alto, bratsche, etc.) NOT that it was a member of the VIOL family.

[LNcello]

@animeviolalord: acc. to some sources, violoncello was derived from "violone cello" = smal violone, where violone referred not to an instrument of the viol family.

I keep coming back to this video as well! So much to learn from it.

[KarlAmade]

Nima has really changed her image, I've never seen her so pretty = )

Do you think they do this piece prima vista?

It may be so, since that was the proper way of performing music before this lady at the end of the 19th century began to perform without her notes. i don't remember who this lady was, but she was perhaps one of the greatest pianist at her time.

[AGLMIL]

sometime evericing is beatiful, the music, the interpretacion and the superb two ladys!!!!!!

[iaylmer]

The French Baroque is simply glorious, as is the playing and performance here. Bravo!

[KarlAmade]

Well, baroque and baroque, my friend =)

This is more like Rococo, the structure and the tonal language is bit different from the typical french baroque music = )

[cammigurlgonewild]

Brilliant! But the musicians looks so stupid.

[Rumplestiltskin24872]

Thanks for this wonderful performance. I have played it many times and never tire of it . It is one of the most memorable performances of Rameau's music

[boredawesome]

sry.. but

their faces XD lololololol

[GiggyDawg]

i so agreee

[jasjjb]

I do not recollect how many times I have heard this piece in the past say 6 months but each time it impresses me - the melody as well as the superb execution by this lady.

Thank you !!

[PeriodinstrumentfaN]

i second that... i always click on this video each time im on YT together with my other faves ... :>

[yamiyugikun]
