Bach - Suite No. 5 in C minor, BWV 1011 - Gigue

[Bachoven4299]

"Bach the greatest composer who ever lived." I can see the music flowing through you when you play, absolutely great!! I can tell you really love playing cello.

[duderock009]

this suite is one of the most difficult works ever written for the cello and you nailed it perfectly and in a uber-original way.

[gilbert691]

Bravo!

[FRAGIORGIO1]

Bravo, Stephane! Beautifully done. I hope you did well in Moscow and that it was a growing experience. Regards.

[krustyjedi]

making faces¨¨ is part of the feeling when playing classic music, and its beautiful.

[Stradivarius1117]

I missed your videos. A great interpretation. I really enojoyed it =)

[larkenau]

amazing!

[Chatatonic]

Nicely presented. Rich with energy and the fun of playing - like it should be in that age :) Yet. Wow ! You really seldomly here someone that ripe in that age ! Thumbs up for a long and good carreer ! ---- *bout the face: just be yourself. If they can love Cocker, Gabriel or Cobain, they'll at least accept you. My god, how sad it is to have to tell......

[tigergreg8]

Not only are you awesome at what you do, but you are also very fascinating to watch when you do play, I think people enjoy watching someone who obviously has a passion for what they are doing, Such as you )

[12345qazx1]

two more years and there will be no discussion about you talent and performances any more.one can clearly hear your character forming your personality,and its very nice to hear and see it.thanks!!! I liked your Bach!

[bbbartolo]

Stephane is my favorite part of YouTube. Just beautiful. If this is what 17 sounds like, how will he play at 34? Hope to be around to hear him.

[Lonestarry]

Very well played. I'm impressed. He has a future full of potential.

[TheCatedral]

Superbe, aérien, simplicime, authentique. Merci encore pour ce très beau moment de musique. Félicitations, Stéphane.

[brio2500]

You always interpret the music so well! The whole facial expression, and body movement is very normal, most people I know do the same, as do most professional musicians so BRAVO! :)

[aries4561]

@brio2500 Most professional musicians do NOT preform histrionics while playing. most professional musicans cannot stand when they see people moving is such spastic movements.

[Upr1s1n9]

Very beautiful execution. I am impressed.

[707dude707]

wauw that was a treat to my ears keep op the good work!

[lauredean100]

Excellent friend wonderful piece of music

Brillent performance

Thanks Judie for sharing

[iWyke2]

RELAX YOUR SHOULDERS!!

otherwise, beautiful sound

[kuhataparunks]

@iWyke2 LOL i don't think he needs to do anything, he plays perfectly from what i hear and see :)

he's the future first chair cellist for the meyerson symphony :p

[iWyke2]

@kuhataparunks

that doesn't excuse anything. yes very good playing, but relaxation while playing is a key.

it will make playing even more effortless than it already is.

tension = bad

[BLinDaTbESt]

@iWyke2 It is not tension you are observing. It is intensity and passion. All great orchestral musicians play with intensity/passion like this. If he just sat there and moved the bow back and forth, looking relaxed and bored, then the music would sound flat and boring with no expression.

[Zetaindustries]

looks fast forwarded

[treblechoir99]

Magnifique Stephane. Thank you for this moment.

[GawdOFVIOLINZ]

extremly engaged in the music

very nice music to listen to

[chris133d]

@gfks11 I love 'Chello' music too... -__- lol

[angelialvares]

How can one go wrong with Bach? Stephane plays the cello with much passion. This is a performance that makes one sigh with happiness! Bravo!

[rbkpetroleo]

Great!!! ...... When I look at the artist while singing, dancing or playing an instrument; to me, the expression of his face is a thermometer that measures the degree of passion involved in your art!

[grbtruck]

You are going to give YoYo Ma a run for his money. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.

[6XstringXsamurai]

Awesome!!! People with real talent are a dying breed these days. before too long people like you will be some of the last few that actually know how to play a real instrument, not just push a bunch of damn buttons on some piece of shit sequencer.

[Rykhart]

Beautiful, man!

Excellent!

[ubershredder1989]

looks so retarded when he plays

[goodygoody23]

@ubershredder1989 least important thing about playing. Especially since some of the greatest musicians of all time (Jimi Hendrix, Steve Vai) made the strangest facial expressions while creating some of the most original and pretty much greatest music of all time

[Vstrat0]

@goodygoody23 No. Rock is entirely different. There's an entire culture, centuries old, of formality surrounding classical music, and it should be respected. This fellow has a nice tone

[goodygoody23]

@Vstrat0 bro, I wasn't comparing this to rock. I was saying that the facial expressions don't mean anything when you're making great music. But if you want me to compare this to rock, a lot of guitarist use the neoclassical style that string orchestra players use. Even some bands use whole symphonies, like Metallica, Symphony X, Jason Becker, and Dream Theater. So it's not like rock is trying to overshadow classical, since often it even incorporates classical. Best example is Jason Becker

[benningtonc7]

@Vstrat0 Liszt used to tear up his music before beginning to play. Will Cook smashed violins. Paganini wore down his strings to show he could play through 3 of his 4 strings breaking during a performance. And Stephane makes faces and all of a sudden he's the most disrespectful classical musician ever to exist?

[Vstrat0]

@benningtonc7 That's a huge leap from what I said.

I'd suggest a better example of neo-classical rock as early Ritchie Blackmore.

[anutoldlegend89]

@Vstrat0 I thinka better example would be Jason Becker, or Jeff Loomis.

[benningtonc7]

@Vstrat0 I totally directed that at the wrong person. =] sorry about that.

[passingbynight]

@benningtonc7 Amazing, isn't it? 

[penguinbreath]

@goodygoody23 And then there was Glen Gould who made faces and sang along...

[KanineKruizer]

@ubershredder1989

Hmmm, while I can see what you're talking about it's important to understand that he can make the music and people like us can't.

[MELIPAISITA]

amazingggg beautiful it makes me tear omggg talented :) keep it up.

[analyssia7]

beautifully done :)
