This is like a dream come true.

[@oleskatnielsen]

Thank you for a most inspirational video from a retired 73 year old retired general surgeon in Denmark.
I am getting much comfort working with Bachs works in these awful corona times.
Hope you are all well.

That moment from 23.00 is just magical. Tabea knows what the student needs and does exactly what it takes to bring our her best.

VIOLA could stand with violin & cello & even with unique middle range that violin & cello could not do. VIOLA PROVE TO THE STRINGS SECTION A SOLO POWERFUL UNIQUE INSTRUMENT MANY MUSICOLOGISTS EVEN IGNORE THIS GREAT VIOLA COULD DO ALL SHOWN IN THIS MASTER CLASS WITH KIM,TEABUA & MiCHEAL.

Viola and double bass sounds the best of the string instruments.

I love the different approaches, Tabea and Kim are both so musical, I love the esotericism of Kim’s teaching and technical breakdown that Tabea uses.

Tabea 💛💛💛

[@nickyork8901]

Isn't she amazing. And having Kim Kashkashian listening and commenting as well, no pressure then!

[@arun.kahaduwaarachchi]

I think the best accompaniment for Violin and the Viola is the Harp.

[@Hoeen5373]

Wow

[@leasoldemailaccount5458]

What are the pieces the musicians played? Heard something great I don't recognize, but it wasn't introduced...

[@johannesknorr8416]

Bach prelude of the first cello suite, arpeggione sonata by Schubert and Bartok viola concerto

[@derfla3]

I could be mistaken, but at about the 42:00 moment you can faintly hear an Emergency Exit Alarm going off.

[@pirastroliv]

Alptraum

[@violiniistt]

Who is the pianst?

[@VioletHorrorshow]

Thomas Steigerwald

[@thoranv.nilsson5746]

54:38 bartok Viola concerto

[@tylervoyer74]

Nobody ever could ever make the Bartok Concerto sound good... As much as I'd like to like it, it just pains me

[@thatsEforEveryone]

@@noahmoment I know you weren't talking to me but for me I don't really like much of the modern style or like very chromatic stuff hard to explain. The person who played in the video is more tolerable to listen to tbh

[@violaisreallycool]

@@thatsEforEveryone I feel the same way. I guess it's just how I've grown up to classical music or what I prefer playing myself. Maybe it's too sophisticated for me...

Wszystko jest w najlepszym porządku - to są wyżyny bratchi i jest tylko jedno nie do przyjęcia ! .. dlaczego słychać tutaj ten obrzydliwy język angielski ??? - skoro MUZYKA ma swój język własny - internacjonalny , którego nie trzeba NIKOMU TŁUMACZYĆ. ?
