I'm a cellist and I've performed the Bach suites many times and heard a lot of other interpretations. When I hear it on guitar, it lends some kind of a magical tranquility that you just can't do with the cello.
I'm not a cellist and I've never performed Bach, but when I hear Bach on cello....
I cry.
Cello's are the best, keep listening to guitars, and keep using your cello.
Thanks
Agree!
Totally agree and I'm a cellist!
The sixth string = D
The guitar offers many different Timbres. Segovia talks about this in an elegant way and said “the guitar is the easiest instrument to play but the hardest instrument to play well”
Sometimes, 3 minutes of Bach, properly interpreted, can calm a turbulent day & ease a troubled mind.
This was one of those times. Thanks for sharing a wonderful performance. It made my day.
Glad to hear that 🙏
It blows the dust of daily life off ones soul.
Always it can. I have Pablo Casals in my CD player and listen to this many mornings and don't feel the need to put anything else in there. Not to say it is all I listen to, but it is like morning coffee to me.
I think Back would have written many more pieces for "parlor" instruments if the Guitar was 2 centuries further in advancent. The lute lacked the lyrical dynamics, which were brought to the Guitar years later by Segovia and his work with Luthiers such as Manuel Ramirez and The German Howser. Actually he would have written conciertos for Guitar if Segovia lived in his day.
i know this feeling
As a cellist who is currently playing this song, it transposes beautifully. For all the time I've heard of prelude its been the "Classic cello piece", but it definitely is not just great on the cello. This is proof.
I transcribed this for double bass and took my exams with it.
Bach sounds good transcribed for kazoo
You might be interested in this arrangement for organ but played solely with the pedals. th-cam.com/video/1kG25M0s4gE/w-d-xo.html
@@EPICSOUNDTRAX can you send me the transcription?
Kazoo? Idiot. Leave.
I'm an amateur player but I've been (slooowly) learning this piece and using this video as reference. So I think that by the time I've learned it I will have watched this video more than any other person! 🥇
J. S. Bach has got to be grinning from ear to ear right now. Absolutely beautiful to hear. Thank you so much for this.
This music makes me feel that the mundane and the profound are identical. That life is an epic, without anything extreme needing to happen. Just being alive is enough.
If only.
@@NickNicometi Please Stop suffering
Bach's Cello pieces always transcribe well for guitar and sounds just as good.
Olden people in the past had an incredible music taste, even clothing, writings you name it! Their music is outstanding!
Yes, the 1 % who could afford to listen to music or to own more than one shirt surely had great taste :)
Lucky as I am, I had the privelage of performing this song alongside Julia in a One Off, street performance in Glasgow queen street, untuned ears sauntered by, but tasteful and cultured individuals stopped and listened for a moment, while she displayed the utmost grace and relentless passion the public wasn’t yet ready to hear, playing like a thousand people were listening when just a few lended their ears, I thought then, what a true artist, a warrior of her craft, forever grateful for the shared excellence we gifted the passers by!! X
Julia Lange is the perfect guitarist to perform this lovely piece. I can listen to her play for hours.
A classical performance by a classy and intelligent lady. You and your performances are not just gifted, you are a gift. Thank you for sharing something so wonderful with us.
BWV 1007 auf Gitarre: Viele sind berufen, aber wenige sind auserwählt. Du bist definitiv eine der ausgewählten ❤️
A beautiful, gifted classical guitarist playing timeless music. What more could you ask for?
There was a time, many years ago when I was just a kid, I would sit for hours on my porch and try to play as fluid as this young lady, alone except for this stray cat who used to sit and purr as I plucked the strings, never complaining that I never reached that level. It was the effort that mattered, the attempt. I wish I had that heart today, somewhere it got lost, but hearing this captures a bit of it, and reminds me of the joy of the challenge to play like the masters. Very well done young lady, very well played indeed.
i, i, i, i, i.
Don’t tell Johann, but I like this piece better on guitar than on cello. And I LOVE it on cello. Amazing work and my gosh, what a gorgeous sounding instrument.
Yes, same here.
Gorgeous guitarist, as well. ❤
don't worry we ain't tellin🙊🗿 unless he see the video🤯🗿
The world became a better place in just 3 minutes. AMAZING
The clarity and punch of the bass on that guitar is astonishing. Marvelous performance, obviously.
hmm...I don't know. If it is a comment about the guitar, to me it sounds like all classical guitars, which are designed to sound that way.
@@StopFear
Instruments are singular in their tonal properties. You're obviously not a musician, otherwise you'd realize the stupidity and smugness of your remark. Pity you're not a little more self aware.
@@MeneerHerculePoirot pity you must belittle someone for their ignorance.
@@plantreez1
It was substantially more than ignorance. The commenter"s ignorance is forgivable. What's NOT forgivable was the assertion of expertise on a subject about which it was obvious he or she knew nothing.
So, according to you I'm to suffer fools gladly? By even condescending to respond to your comment I'm already doing that. Pity you feltl a need to jump into an admonition to which you weren't invited with an individual whose knowledge and expertise of the subject renders you completely outclassed. Feel to offer any rebuttal. But, do keep it pithy as I bore easily with those demonstrating intellectual inferiority.
@@MeneerHerculePoirot Again.... have a nice day sir. You would not dare do that in person.
You've found your joy Julia. There is no sound on planet earth more beautiful than the classical guitar, as beautiful perhaps, more beautiful, not possible. Thanks Julia.
The lute can have a mellowness and clarity that is hard to replicate on the guitar, e.g., th-cam.com/video/p8Utq4aRbu8/w-d-xo.html
Eine zauberhafte Aufnahme mit sehr schönem Klang auf dieser wunderbaren Jakob Lebisch Meistergitarre ! BRAVO 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋 👋Tolle Aufnahme !! 👍👍👍 Danke fürs teilen 🙏
*🌠 The depth and complexity of classical compositions never fail to leave a lasting impression.*
Fraulein Lange, das einzige, was schöner ist als Sie, ist Ihr Spiel und Ihre offensichtliche Liebe zu Ihrer Kunst und zu Bach. Vielen Dank für diese großartige Leistung. Beste Wünsche aus den USA und Entschuldigung für mein unzureichendes Deutsch
Vielen lieben Dank 🙏
This is breathtaking. It's not often we have the opportunity to watch a performer literally become the music she is playing. Bravo!
I've been playing guitar for years (a different style) and whenever I hear a lady like this I am completely in ore of them. They play with such Devine skill and precision that I could never hope to be as good as them in a million years. And you no what? That's good because I get to listen to the beauty of it without analysing it. Fantastic 🎉❤
The build up starting at 2:09 is genius. It’s a sonic guide to the part immediately after which sounds like Grace.
The feeling you impart in your performance sets you apart in a space all your own. Bravo!
I love listening to Bach cello suites but I agree that this is a magnificent interpretation of the 1st suite on guitar which radiates with tranquility 😊
A moment, of peace, beauty, skill, emotional content, reflectiveness, (I may have just invented a new word..) and hope, packed into 3:08. For the weary, the stressed, the worried, the uncertain, the hopeless, to come and be unburdened of the cares that trouble their hearts, and remember once again what the joy of life feels like. Thank-you Julia, May God increase your skill, your joy, your audience, and give you increased ability to move peoples hearts deeply.
Listening to this made today a better day.
As a cellist in the New York Symphony…. BEAUTIFUL!!! Your expressions for a song I have had to play my whole life and love…. So amazing!
She is a dreamy player. I'm in love with her feel.
J.S. Bach yet lives!!
Когда исполняешь Душой - неважно, на каком инструменте!!!
We need to get you to a million(s) subscribers! That was incredible! Thank you...
it was so well played as the interpreter remembered things from her life while playing
Precision and clarity, the sole of talent.
Yo interpretaré la misma obra en la final de un concurso en mi país y me da emoción pensar poder interpretar así, tengo 11 años y me encantó como tocas.
¡Mucha Suerte, Iván! ¡La mejor de las suertes!
Du bist so toll ! Hoffe mein Enkelsohn wird mal so etwas schreiben ! Hoffe dein Auftritt war damals erfolgreich , hauptsache du trägst die liebe zu dieser Musik weiter im Herzen :)
One of the most relaxed Hands i ever seen ... stunning, beautiful
Superaffentittengeil
I grew up listening to Segovia play Bach. A video like this confirms my assertion that there is nothing more elegant and soulful than Bach on the acoustic guitar. This is about as close as you can get to experiencing perfection.
This is one of my favourite pieces of guitar music and Your interpretation of it is one of the best. I am not a guitarist or a musician but you have a light touch that makes this piece sound even more beautiful. You nailed it completely 😊
Fahren gerade mit dem Zug an Köthen vorbei...eine wichtige Station in Bachs Leben...Und nun höre ich gerade diese wunderschöne Interpretation auf der Gitarre! Thank you for the Musik! 😊🎸🎶💓
I feel like, like kinda hearing a soundtrack from a beautiful movie from a very beautiful scene... So calming
I think this is my favorite version/performance of this piece I've heard yet! 😀
Julia vs. Anrés... hm She is nice and good playing 🤩
It still does not reach the version of John Feeley. But its nice
Que preciosidade!
Que coisa mais bela!!!
Parabéns Julia !!!!
Falo de Belo Horizonte!
Minas Gerais
Brasil!!
cannot stress enough how underrated legato's difficulty is on guitar. bravo!
This really is not my type of music. But this young lady plays this so beautifully it's impossible to not listen to the whole piece of music . It is just superb, thank you for educating .
You should hear it on cello. Mind will be blown
Красота классической гитары, как и классическая красота исполнителя))). Джулия спасибо! Я один тут по-русски пишу?
Да. Я по русски умею только читать.
Lovely, and the wooden furnishings and other surfaces of the room doubtless help make the performance even more authentic (even with the change of instrument).
playing with love! Bravíssimo!! (from Brasil)
Brasilissimo? :-/
@@terrymiller111 BrasilissimA
@@terrymiller111 Actually he said "Bravissimo", not that you´ve whrote.
Huehuehue brasileiro ta em todo lugar
Sometime pieces are played just right for
my ear,ths is one of those times.Three minutes of great pleasure.Thank you ,Julia
such beauty, in sound and vision.
Que qualidade sonora !!!
Que toque limpo !
As a straight man from the southern United States I think the best compliment I can give you is that your music is so beautiful I didn’t even notice how beautiful you are yourself.
Around here men typically see the pretty girl and then click on the video just to see her and I clicked on this from a google search of Prelude on guitar and my God are you something special(talent wise). Keep up the fantastic work you are doing
Out now on Spotify and all other streaming services:

Thank you. That was beautiful.
Your fingers are hypnotic, a great lesson in clean arpeggios.
I sent you a work email. I write it in case it ended in spam :) BYE!
no!
Y el instagram? Jeje
I have no idea why this didn’t grab me when I heard it on Daredevil but it certainly did when I heard it on Batwoman. As a metal guitarist I’m now determined to learn this. Absolutely gorgeous playing. Thank you so much for sharing.
Fabulous, and for all of the reasons mentioned below. Julia is beautiful, Bach's Cello Suite No 1 is beautiful, Julia's virtuosity is beautiful, and the setting is beautiful. The problem is the setting. It is also beautiful, in the way that the house turned-museum of a long-dead classical music composer can be beautiful: elegant, refined, clean. Exactly what one would expect. This is why classical music concert halls are largely filled by a dying demographic of cotton-heads. The same piece played by Julia weaaring a sweaty and dirty house dress in a squalid apartment with a view of Mexico City or a Favala in Brazil, would, potentially, go viral. In other words, there is nothing at all wrong with presentation of classical music in its traditional formats, as we see here. And perhaps its survival will never depend on how it is presented, after all, as long as humans are able to recognize and appreciate the transcendent beauty of music it will always be with us in one form or another. But for it to thrive, it can never do so without being relevant. Safe patronoge is one thing, but the patrons will someday be gone.
Belíssimo, que melodia agradável. Um dia vou chegar nesse nível
Thanks to you, this will be the first classical masterpiece I will be mastering. Thank you.
Beautiful tone, and control of each passage whilst maintaining the spirit of the piece! Well done.
I’ve always loved this piece
ギターでの演奏はソフトで滑らかな感じが好きです。
Beautiful! This tune always lifts my heart, and your rendition here is downright *magical*.
Thank you :-)
Very impressive. Never heard Bach on a guitar before. Thanks for sharing this with us.
How about Beethoven ? th-cam.com/video/o6rBK0BqL2w/w-d-xo.html
@@comsigninc this is for me a little too modern interpretation.
Absolutely beautiful performance of a Great work by my fav. composer.
She plays with beauty, authority, and feeling. Bravo!
That's a nifty contraption she has there to connect her instrument to her left thigh. I play with the waist of the guitar on my left thigh, but use a 6" stool to get the "altitude" on the guitar that makes the neck/fingerboard 45 degrees to vertical. This allows me to perform "Thumb Position" on the guitar, a technique used on cello and double bass, which also sport a perfectly vertical neck. I think that's where I got the idea/inspiration. That, and I REALLY needed that one extra treble note. Necessity being the Mother of Invention, of course, and not me. Plus, I really needed that note, and now I have it and a few others, to boot.
I never thought the perfect woman existed. and then you tube proves me wrong and introduces me to Julia Lange. So talented. Congratulations.
BEAUTIFUL AND FLAWLESS
Wow, that gave me chills! I've never heard this song on guitar before. Thank you!!
Absolutely beautiful, thank you ❤
You can well see and hear in this piece that much of Bach's shorter pieces were composed as practice pieces for his musical children & other music students. This whole piece is one practice scale after another...yet it comes out as a gorgeous, calming composition. And, it sounds as good...maybe even better..on classical guitar as on cello.
I was thinking as I was listening and viewing this recording that the performance, the audio quality and video was as good as I have ever heard and seen. Then I read the description and it was you too.
Lovely and relaxing to listen to.
Thanks 😊
@@julialange3260 oh, it's relaxing all right; With a gigantic capital R! I love that!
@@julialange3260 And not hard to watch.😉
I’ve listened to classical music all my life, this was very beautifully played. Well done.
Julia, você é uma excelente artista !
Parabéns ! 🇧🇷
Julia, I had to listen to that again.... and again..... that was beautiful.... thanks for sharing....
We miss you Julia! great interpretation, amazing perform.
Thank you 🙏
Yeah that was spectacular. I play rock/blues, SG Gibson and Angus Young tone turned up! Your interpretation and playing ability reflects years of dedication and skill. Thanks for sharing that, loved it.
I used to play a version similar to this. Also, my guitar has a sound similar to yours. All in all, I almost cry listening to this because I do not play since ten years ago. Thank you.
Get back on that horse!
Incredible dexterity in those more complex passages.
Phenomenal interpretation! Bach cello suite #1 is my go to song almost weekly. This version on guitar is amazing. I wish I could download the ability to play it
Su forma de tocar transmite paz.
You make it look so easy, beautiful!
I was enchanted with this interpretation. Sheer virtuosity ❤
I play guitar myself. Restarted a year ago after quitting 10yrs. Learning the right way and getting rid of old habits. Excellent performance. I noticed how beautiful your hands are! 😊
When I was a young teen, my Dad would "force" us to listen to this on classical guitar incessantly, and I learned to loathe it. This was the early 70's mind you. Now of course I am Bach's biggest fan, and this was another one of those, how did he do it?? moments.
It transcribes so well you’d never believe it wasn’t written for guitar. Very nice job Julia!
Bach, unser Meister für alle, vom Barock bis zur Klassik, vom Jazz bis zum Rock.
Sehr schöne Interpretation, die vergessen läßt, daß dieses Stück für das Cello geschrieben wurde. Magistral. Bravo et encore.
Dankeschön 🙏
bravo!! I didn't even know this worked on a guitar. I closed my eyes and just enjoyed the entire performance. Thank you!
A beautiful rendering by wonderful hands.
I loved this so much I actually felt myself wanting to applaud at the end of the piece. I do hope I have the opportunity to listen to this magnificent performer live on tour one day.
Wonderful Julia, bravo! 👏👏👏
Thanks a lot dear Siccas Team ☺️
Brava.
vocês são brasileiros?
@@julialange3260 That was wonderful Julia, I have it saved.
where exactly is this room? Fantastic acoustics and decor + amazing playing
Truly beautiful piece of music played exquisitely
Bravo Julia ,c'était extrêmement agréable à écouter, et à regarder promener vos doigts avec tant de délicatesse . Très joli choix également dans l oeuvre de jsBach
Amicalement
Merci beaucoup 🙏😊
Very nice! I find myself back on this video a second time. Thank you.
Beautifully played ...reminded me of Segovia all those years ago...a fluid and intelligently realised reading ...thanks Julia
I'm listening in tears as the birds around me are singing with holy greatness. Thanks be to God ! ❤🙏
I love this setting in this room
Thanks a lot 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks be to God for everything we see , everything we hear , everything we touch, and taste and smell.
Truly the King Of Kings and Lord Of Lords has blessed you greatly.
Beautiful sound and very expressive interpretation, Julia! Bravo! Best regards from San Luis, Argentina!
Thanks a lot 🙏😊
Wow this is so wonderful 😳
Thanks a lot 🙏😊
