Bach Suite No. 2 - Prelude

[cellobaby97]

Good job Mr.corman :D

[postmodernhousewife]

sublime. I think you've done a really wonderful job of the phrasing - really expressive without being self-indulgent. I hope I can play this well some day!

[victoriacellist1]

working on this suite now. that an amzing sound! like the interpretation and bowing style. very rythmic yet free. my teacher insists i use the same type of style u do. good job

[gifu1960]

Mike what a great sound you get in this video. I really enjoy watching this video and your Suite III prelude.

[musc625]

watch your shifting, don't slide. make sure you are releasing the pressure on your finger before moving to the next note. Also check your second knuckle, don't let it collapse. Otherwise good job.

two things i'd say about this is that one, it sounds too choppy...it sounds like ur emphasizing every single beat/note instead letting the sound flow more. also why'd u speed up so much around 3:58?? it kinda sounded random and outta place. BUT THATS JUST TWO THINGS OUT OF A TON OF WONDERFUL THINGS ABOUT UR PLAYING. so dont think i'm all negative here

[lessienboring]

beautiful, congrats boy : )

[Caridin40]

Beautiful! This is one of the best recordings i have heard in a long time.

I want to play like you when I'm your age (im 13 now)

[flex2000i]

nice job dude

[jackfckntwist]

you've got yourself a new fan! bravo!

[foxyfarny]

yourn playing got me through my dissertation. thank you.

[FARTYPANTS30]

As a cello player; my hat goes off to you!! Very nice live performance and sound. At 1:58 there is one area, but who needs a nit picker!! Very nice memorization!

[GodzCok]

Very nice. I play the cello as well and the bach suites are a challenge! you're definitely a musician.

[ARoundOfApplause]

I am so pleased that your generation has elected to keep the Classics alive- your talent and humble acceptance of that fact will take you to great rewards. See you in CONCERT!

[ARoundOfApplause]

07843827259 and your video is, where??? We would love to view it!

[ARoundOfApplause]

My friend, that was beautiful- I thank you!

[RespondDash]

Flawless. That's so good, man.

[cheshire4478]

the way you move with your cello...it almost brought me to tears. It seems as though you forget yourself and become the perfect partner to your instrument, two halves making a whole new being, releasing the full potential of the music and yourself.

[cellokenno]

Very well played! I have subscribed to your posts and look forward to hearing more from you. May I request the sarabande from this suite?

[PianoCriticsKiller]

So beautiful. The cello is so very, very beatutiful.

You play wonderfully!

^o^

[pbgirl09]

WOw. I play cello myself. I love how you sing with your cello. It is like a part of you.

I wish I could play like you someday.

It's so beautiful.

The acoustics in your room are awesome. I hope I can have an acoustic room like that too. Any tips?

[farxfromxyou]

beautiful! you certainly have a way with the cello and i was curious if you could post a video of you playing the 5th suite's prelude..? that is my favorite by far. with your technique, i'm sure it would be one of the best i've heard!

[martincello25]

for some reason the way you hold your cello reminds me of Rostropovich's position in his later years, you play very well :)

[snootzie78]

You play beautifully. Nice full tone. Make sure to keep the tempo steady. You might try varying some bowing styles so that it's not all legato. Keep up the great work!

[sarahlis]

that's so amazing - you make it flow so effortlessly. I've been listening to this for about 45 minutes trying to pick apart everything Baroque about it and it's been absolutely wonderful listening to you play long into the night

[reniolek]

too scholarly... it doesn't go ahead, why do you slow down and change the tempo all the time? it should flow and you put the reins on your cello so it suffocates! And then you are out of tune in many points, you should also work on the sound, make it more regular, sweetest...

[cellocraze]

thats awesome, you have a very mature sound, i can't wait for th rest of your bach suites, gl with everything!!

[Erelion]

This is really really beautiful. It so good. Keep it up, looking farward to more videos.

[ajmuqeih]

Fantastic performance! I've been listening to various recordings around YouTube for recordings to listen to, because I'm about to begin learning this. I can't wait now!

[classicalbunny]

I've watched this a dozen times...at least! I can't get over how well you play this. You've really made it your own. If I knew a higher compliment I would give it to you.

[imreallyight]

awesome!!
