  • This particular arrangement was done by Alfred Heller (president of Villa-Lobos society a few yrs ago) and purchased by the performers for this performance. Please contact Mr. Heller directly to purchase this arrangement.

  • wat happned to the 8 cellos!!! :(

  • unfortunately not everyone has the privilege to have all 8 cellos.

  • Villa-Lobos "Bachianas Brasileiras no. 5" may be a difficult piece for singers, specially for the high notes, the words in Portuguese and the "bocca chiusa" ending. The musicians in this video are great - they give the piece the right mood. But the soprano is awesome: I don't know where she is from, but her Portuguese is perfect, quite understandable, she must be Brazilian - or a pretty dedicated singer. Congratulations!

  • Thank you! Dana is actually an American (I, Korean), but when we were learning this, I got one of my Brazilian friends to coach us speaking the text. It was my recital, so I wanted everyone on it to be as good as they can be!

  • It was performed at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston (in Williams Hall).

  • Que beleza, quanto orgulho de ser brasileiro, de estar vivo, de ter sensibilidade para apreciar o belo.

  • Realmente Hermoso, excelente ensamble!!!yo me enamoré de la música de Villa Lobos siendo una niña, cuando estudiaba guitarra clásica, apenas tenía 11 años, cuan me pusieron a Villa Lobos...Esta música me pone nostálgica, como dicen en portugués "Saudade"...Me hace recordar el preludio N° 3 de Villa Lobos para guitarra.. Felicidades!!!

  • This is beautiful. I'm trying to find the sheet music to this arrangement- for cello, soprano, and piano- any chance you could tell me were you got it?

  • What an amazing soprano!!! o.o

  • "donzela" should be pronounced /dõnˈzɛlɐ/. /ɛ/ as in "bed".

  • De vez em quando eu passo aqui e revejo esse interessantissimo arranjo dessa maravilhosa composição de Villa Lobos, nosso grande compositor. Lindo, muito bem interpretado, três músicos realmente competentes!

  • Não gostei da dicção.

  • FANTASTIC!!! Dana`s vibrato, phrasing, and tone equal phenomenal talent and a lot of dedication.  Beautifully done. Thankyou SO much!!!

  • super!!!

  • Lindo Demais

  • Bravíssimo!
