Webern Trio Frankfurt Akemi Mercer-Niewöhner Violin, Dirk Mercer-Niewöhner - Viola, Ulrich Horn Cello, Live in Frankfurt, 2014 HR Concert Hall Produced by Boguslaw Furtok
I cannot imagine a more compelling argument for the string trio, for this fine string trio, or for this extraordinary piece of music. I was transfixed by the sheer sound of it from the beginning, and a bit sad to come to the end. Yes, the sound engineer also gets highest marks, for sure, but let's pause simply to be grateful that musicians such as this are among us. What a gift!
@@Piflaser You're just a little mixed up, but headed in the right direction! Gounod's Ave Maria is a melody superimposed over an arrangement of Bach's Prelude #1 from the Well-Tempered Clavier. It's interesting that hearing this arrangement of the Goldberg this other Bach composition jumped into your mind! You may be interested in this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ave_Maria_(Bach/Gounod)
It would never been written in this form, without b.c. It sounds not baroque but like Gounod. Better to listen to Scott Ross or Alan Curtis who made the original.
Like many others, I'm deeply in love with this great work of Bach's. I'm quite familiar with the harpsichord and piano versions. But, believe it or not, this is the first time I hear (and watch) the string-trio arrangement. What a breath-taking experience for me! It's out of this world!
WOW! This arrangement by Dimitri Sitkovetsky really brings out the best. These 3 musicians are superb & collectively they've created a multi-faceted jewel of a performance. I've read Bach wrote a musical "Unified Field Theory" with this & they've provided proof. [No wonder Glenn Gould did all that humming.]
What a so great and beautiful sound of magic music. I'm just impressed and become lover and fan of your talent, that's amazing listening such these rare and lovely melodies in Heaven. Congratulations to you all ! 👏👏👏😇
some of the most incredible contrapuntally orchestrated music.; that with your eyes closed it feels as if naturally composed: each note appearing audibly with your very mind. Spooky!! they new something about left and right brain function listening effect and how one perceives. Love The Goldberg Variations
J'en suis qu'à l'Aria et c'est déjà merveilleux =D Le canon à la quinte est superbement tragique avec des cordes, j'ai du mal à apprécier les versions pour clavecin ou piano.
Superbe interprétation d'une musique parmis les plus sublimes jamais éccrites .peut être celle qui nous propulsé vers l,'absolu et la perfection dont notre esprit est en quête.un au delà de notre ego sans nier que nous sommes totalement dans le grand tout .alpha et oméga. De la pure métaphysique.au sens premier du terme.
The work really blooms in this format - three lines can sing, sustain notes, choose gradations in dynamics - I'll stop there. Want to bet Bach himself arranged a version for trio, maybe left it in a taxi?
BRAVI! It is amazing how wonderful Bach's music is, no matter what the instruments. (And not Bravo, which applies to a man taking a solo bow. For a mixed group of men and women, it's Bravi.)
Until now my favourite rendition of the Goldberg Variations was by Wilhelm Kempff in the piano. This version is quite miraculous; not necessarily better but oh so different and one I will return to time and again.
Wonderful! i was interested to see how they (particularly the violinist) deal so well with the challenge of playing sustained notes in a way which does not obscure the lines as they would naturally be heard on the keyboard version.
It's amazing how Bach's music can be played on so many different instruments and it still sounds sublime. Try, say, Chopin on other instruments, it is horrendous.
my only complaint is that viola, by its physical nature, cannot project as well as the violin. The viola here is overwhelmed by the violin and the cello.
ピアノ、ハープシコードでしか聴いたことがなかったが、弦楽も素晴らしい!! bachは楽器を選ばない!!!!!
各声部がくっきりとしていて、バッハの意図していたことが鍵盤より分かりやすい。チェンバロやピアノより音色が艶っぽい。やっぱり弦は暖かくていいですね。
This is a triumph for Bach, Sitkovetsky and the Werbern Trio. I might even throw in a big thankyou to Mr Goldberg and his insomnia.
Insomnia of Hermann Carl von Keyserlingk, not Goldberg who was the one to play the variations

lets not forget bach and his boundless awesomeness!
Every person involved with this deserves praise. It is something I will be listening to for years to come.
It sounds like Gounod's Ave Maria.

解説書やバッハの伝記の中で曲名を知り幻の名曲であった老音楽愛好家にとって凄い時代に生きていることを、またまた実感させられた動画です。誰の編曲なのか定かではありませんが大変よくできたアンサンブル版です。原曲の鍵盤楽器独奏版より各声部の進行がよく分かり集中して聴き通すことができました。独奏版だと、ついつい眠くなってバッハの魔術にかかってしまうので。演奏は安定したテクニックと音楽的解釈も
よく練られていてすばらしいアンサンブルです。映像もセンスの良いカメラワークと収音でストレスなく鑑賞することができました。

I think so.
Humam Ghassib totally agree,
Man würde am liebsten immer wieder Szenenapplaus geben.
Non-vibrato is righteous! Una musica molto meraviglia!
I have enjoyed a blessed Wednesday afternoon in Philadelphia listening to these wonderful musicians. Thanks for this performance.
Thanks!
Go Flyers:)
The French Ouverture is awesome, executed with such energy.
They walked, they served, they ate. 👌
This is going to my list right now. Pure Bach's beauty. Never seen it played by a string trio.
Imagining listening this rendition in the center of the forest~~:)
Stunning. Really demonstrates the amazing quality of Bach's writing.
I can’t believe you got 8 likes(including me).

Superbe version. Rien à dire, juste écouter et remercier Bach pour ce fantastique cadeau à l humanité.
The bass is beautiful here
Absolutely stunning! I'll be listening to this rendition many times over. Thank you to all involved and to the individual who generously uploaded it.
Beautiful sound is a pure joyl!!! I truly enjoyed this version. Thank you for uploading.
The tempi throughout are probably the best I've ever heard. Slower than Gould's 50's recording but not as slow as his 80's.
I agree, although I still very much enjoy Gould's slow tempo. If you find this tempo appealing, try Koroliov.
thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out
What a so great and beautiful sound of magic music.
I'm just impressed and become lover and fan of your talent, that's amazing listening such these rare and lovely melodies in Heaven.
Congratulations to you all ! 👏👏👏😇
Stunning. And so beautiful! Thank you in the name of musicians over the world.
I find the viola part beautiful ! Great sound!
I think so, too.
From all string versions I ve heard recently still the best one, the most balanced
and He said, "make a joyful noise unto the Lord." Well, here ya'go.
If I could conduct Coaching through music rather than words, I would use this. Majestic.
One of the best executions of this speechless masterpiece. Pure music; pure grace. Of the Unknown. Thanks for post so admirable spiritual work.
This arrangement has been accompanying me during my hole life. And fortunately I‘m able to more or less master the violin and viola part. 💙
Thank you for your sharing ~

A beautiful performance. Well done.
Also, a superb technical recording. The engineering crew at the Proms could benefit from your tutelage.
hermosa interpretacion tres grandes instrumentistas tres felicitaciones
This is my favorite performance.
WOW ... just simply ... WOW!
Wonderful sensitive ensemble playing.
잠이 안 와서 듣기 위해 고른 영상인데, 개인적으로 참 마음에 듭니다.
This is utterly superb! Great playing and a wonderful rendition of the great harpsichord and piano work. A true revelation.
J'en suis qu'à l'Aria et c'est déjà merveilleux =D

THIS send chills down my spine, so incredibly beautiful! Breathtaking piece...

Maybe more likely used to wrap butter? Some of the movements are for four voices.
bezuglich Perhaps left it in a horse carriage.
Amazing, Bach is god
BRAVI! It is amazing how wonderful Bach's music is, no matter what the instruments.

+Harry Andruschak Thank you for that-brilliant
Oh, please. Language and usage evolves, bravo is perfectly correct.
It is as if JSB had written the Goldberg variations for string trio... A wonderful transcription and a great performance . Thanks!
I like the minimal amount of vibrato, and that violin isn't always far far out in front dynamically.
An amazing interpretation
So beautiful! Please record and release this!
there are several recordings on spotify for both string trio and string quartet!
most beautiful music ever
This is my absolute favourite version, love it!!
So schön!!!
Meraviglioso!

Kemmy !! bravo!! so great to hear you xxxx
Wonderful ! 🎵🎵🎻🎶🎼👏👏👏👏🎻
..no words..
This reminds me of Mozart’s own arrangement of Bach’s WTK for the string quartet.
Wonderful! i was interested to see how they (particularly the violinist) deal so well with the challenge of playing sustained notes in a way which does not obscure the lines as they would naturally be heard on the keyboard version.
Wow! THAT'S lovely!
Magnifique
bravo-------------!

Beautiful arrangement and performance of this great piece
Nice video
Hermoso, que lindo suenan las variaciones en las cuerdas :)
