Jaqueline Du Pre & Daniel Barenboim - informal

[cellochick56]

Jackie does not play the music...she BECOMES the music! And she was just so fun and natural! Miss you Smiley...so much! <3

[GA4N]

2:42 to 2:49 ..... your coda , jackie , your coda ...... if I were in prison , I would listen to it , 38 times per a day , and all would just be just fine ...........

[GA4N]

She is young , she is beautiful , she is extatic , she brings truth in what she plays , she is unforgettable , what she plays stays in our memory for eternity ! What else ...........?

[faulpelz71]

verdammtes Miststück

[ojkibuwehfise]

can somebody tell the piano piece she's playing at first? It's lovely, I want to learn it :) I think it would be easy for beginner. thank you :)

[baconsplace]

Amazing, some have too much... talent, looks, energy and start to develop these skills early. These were such two. I cant help thinking that all those tics and overwrought physical playing gestures did not play a part in the onset of her illness. We need extreme talent but you wonder if it was good for her.

[GA4N]

@baconsplace Your opinion is curious .... but interesting . Are you a doctor ?

[charlieyoung1988]

a quite sad story....

[GA4N]

1:39 ..... Jackie .....!! You turn me mad !!

[HamburgBeets]

She would have been 67 today, 26 January 2012.

Playing – somewhere still playing.

I can hear you in the rain

A never-ending inspiration

A whisper in the corn – still playing.

[GA4N]

2:22 to 2:24 : Jackie in Heaven .......

[GA4N]

could you just shut up for a while , Danny ?

[GA4N]

1:57 to 2:08 ..... pure and dark beauty ....

[Blashyrk00]

Genius!

[CarteParaDoxe]

the beauty of her Brahms is just unbearable .... listen to that , and you 're lost .... in aeternal light ....

[faroenmano]

A powerful and wise innocence.

[galateacelloyan]

the cutest couple in the music world!

[Ellinidara]

What a a talent...she lives in our hearts.

[GA4N]

jaqu . du pré plays brahms just like a woodstock girl would do it ... that's is so natural , so fresh , so sexy ... and it is really brahms !! much more brahmsian than any "conservatoire" performing with the dirty frustrated students who tries to be genious when they are only neurotic . Here the Brahms in love (with clara) is really in full love , also neurotic , but not insane . Thanks JDPRE.

[GA4N]

oh my god ..... such a beauty and this explosive genious of j du pré made me sad for my whole day ... and more , because her brahms is just burning my heart out ......

[fairman1952]

The notes never end with Jacqueline....she makes them "sticky"...

[lodeypodey]

Absolutely beautiful



[cellomad1]

Does anyone know the name of the piece she's playing? 

[cellomad1]

@cellomad1 Never mind, I found it.

[Reinemichaud]

Très émouvant de les revoir tous les deux en pleine harmonie

[rats2008]

lovely couple, so touching... beautiful music.....

[khristinnn]

Su manera de tocar me pone la piel de gallina

[fatti1008]

il ike your description .. she is, was and she will be amazing forever !

[cellocraze]

I would love to hear her play the Shostakovich cello concerto

[musikgirl1]

@cellocraze

There is a recording of her playing the first movement. Go to the Jacqueline du Pre website and there is a link there where you can listen.Jackie lives forever!

[hanioso]

So f***ing effortless. p

[hanioso]

Beautiful woman

[lilibrailovs]

DOS GENIOS INDISCUTIDOS!

[FrikkenSpaceClownDad]

Informal describes her to a 'T'. So sad that she has left us, but sooooooo good that we have clever people who can upload these treasures for our enjoyment, Well done everybody and thank you FlashHarry621.

[jokerXL512]

What an animal! Haha! So much fun to watch and she always sounds amazing!

[opus31music]

Splendide! Rayonnant!

[dragmio]

Her sound is maybe even better than that of Rostropovich. Unbelievable.

[GA4N]

@dragmio Of course it is !!!!!

[MrIsaacE]

i bet she'd give the best handjob of all time

[dragmio]

@MrIsaacE And I bet you have years to go before you get your first one.

[MrIsaacE]

@dragmio i wish you were right cos honeys just dont seem to have the wrist work down like jacky here, its hardly worth the fuss.

[jmrozendaal]

The 'cello sonata is Brahms, #2 in F, first movement.

[cocxoxo]

does anybody know what are the pieces she's playing (all 3 of'em if possible) tks

[godzooke]

Barenboim, without doubt is a musician who will be talked of and admired for centuries to come. However, du Pre has that something extra. Music just pours out of her and as has been said of her many times by colleagues and critics, she seems to have been sent into the World ' ready made'. Unforgettable artist!

[cellomad1]

She truly had an incredible gift. Too bad she was taken away from us so soon.

[Thephraste84]

MERCI beaucoup.

[lourak]

This might appear an inappropriate comment (and certainly embarrassing for Barenboim) but Jaqueline's pianistic style and expression (though amateurish) is superior to his.

[sal198500]

@lourak how is her expression amateurish? It is very "sprightly" though I find it to be appropriate to a professional pianist if she were a bit more serious towards the end... but I don't understand your comment. Also, anyone know what she was playing in the beginning? Very charming stuff.

[lourak]

@sal198500 You know what? - I listened again, and....welll - it's quite good actually, though a bit affected with a tad too many mannerisms for my taste in classical style. A few more listenings, and who knows...

[531337]

WOW!

[amaranta117]

u r right...different level from mortals..

[mingweicello]

her piano sound and expression is even better than many professonal pianists.

[violusmaximus]

@mingweicello

I absolutely agree!!!
