Rares sont les interprétations de Chaconne au clavecin. Comme toutes les pièces que joue Chiara Massini, on retrouve toute la sensibilité de l'interprète. Il y a de la douceur, du retour aux sources, un respect de l'esprit de Bach face à l'un de ses plus grands chefs d'oeuvre lié à la souffrance et le souci de ne pas désespérer. Cette version est en tout état de cause magnifique compte tenu notamment de la maîtrise parfaite de son instrument par Chiara Massini. Tout mon respect pour l'artiste. Splendide !
thank you Chiara, for helping me understand the real substantial texture of bach. Your interpretation is pure intelligence and clairvoyance. Thank you for your generosity
A profound, moving, and objective interpretation, very much in the best Italian manner----an unusual sensibility among modern harpsichordists. I'm glad for this Leonhardt transcription, because Chiara Massini brings to it at once her flawless, objective technique, and ability to do justice to this ultimate transalpine music with all its half-frozen tensions and glories.
Magnifique vocalité! Et merci de nous la donner à ce tempo qui nous permet d’accéder à toute là richesse du contrepoint, et avec quelle sensibilité ! Bravo aussi pour la qualité du film et ce splendide instrument
The mysterious Beauty of this magical music is your own beauty. That’s why you look so natural. You’re not a Bach performer. Bach is the interpreter of your soul. Bravo.
This is truly wonderful! I've heard this Bach ciaconna by many violinist and in transcriptions for guitar and piano, but for some reason never for harpsichord. Why did I think it would not work on an instrument from Bach's own era? I'm glad to have happened across this interpretation. Thank you so much!
I've just discovered this channel a few minutes ago, and i'm blown away, excellent interpretations and a really great sound. I've heard a lot of arrangements for the Chaconne by composers such as Mendelssohn, Schumann, Ressel, Raff etc, but i didn't know, that Gustav Leonhardt has written such an incredible transcription. What a pleasent surprise, thank you for sharing your wonderful work!
Magico il lavoro di G. Leonhardt, magica l'interpretazione di Chiara. Credo che JSB in persona apprezzerebbe questa coraggiosa trascrizione, lui che era un mago in cose del genere. Bravo Gustav, bravissima Chiara!
That motto (dum vixi tacui / mortua dulce cano) gets an even deeper meaning when playing particularly this Leonhardt arrangement... Brilliantly played!
Grazie per la Bellezza che ci ha donato. Il mondo ha bisogno di Bellezza non superficiale. :) Grazie anche per aver ricordato Gustav Leonhardt, che ho avuto il privilegio di ascoltare varie volte dal vivo. Lui era la Musica.
Riesci sempre a regalare emozioni inaspettate, carissima Chiara ..... quante volte abbiamo ascoltato la Ciaccona BWV 1004 e in quante diverse versioni e trascrizioni, eppure ascoltando questa tua vera perla è stato come affrontare per la prima volta un sentiero mille volte visto ma mai realmente percorso e che, passo dopo passo, induce a riflettere e a ripensare ai precedenti ascolti. Un abbraccio forte e grazie dal cuore. P.S.: attenzione all'accordatura di alcune note della terza ottava ... P.P.S.: complimenti per il nuovo look ;-)
Non amo le trascrizioni e queste pagine immortali sono talmente uniche per lo strumento originale che scopro con stupore questo video...Grazie per questa emozione inattesa, Chiara Massimi, bellissimo!
Bravissimo Chiara ! Une magnifique interprétation toute en douceur calme et sérénité, à l'opposé de bien d'autres pleines de violence, alors qu'il n'y a jamais de violence chez JS Bach.
É Chiara e fica tudo dito. Como sempre, clareza, rigor, sensibilidade e aquele toque especial que confere uma sonoridade muito própria. Adorei mais esta magnífica interpretação. Bravo!
Congratulations on a magisterial performance! As a pretty decent violinist and harpsichordist, I prefer to hear and play this work more on the harpsichord! Keep up the brilliant work!
Si! Bravissima! Mein Respekt für die hervorragende Ausführung, danke liebe Chiara! Liebe die neue Frisur ;-) Viele Erfolg und viele liebe Grüße aus Voorburg, Holland! Harald B.
L' ho talmente nel cuore e nell' anima questa Ciaccona che me la fischio spesso e volentieri anche quando vado all' Esselunga a fare la spesa. Cmq Chiara Massini a parte che ne è una splendida interprete, Bach è veramente una droga .... bravissima Chiara, ma veramente bravissima !!!!
I love the simplicity and clarity of this transcription. I wish there were more like it. The Busoni for the piano seems to have a bit too much imposed drama, the music is dramatic enough on its own. This performance is also sublime.
Really great performance! There are more great performers, some may even play slightly more virtuously. But I always come back here, to Chiara. I do like and prefer her personal style and interpretation!
Ich war es gewohnt, dieses Meisterwerk auf der Gitarre zu spielen. Es ist sehr schön, es auf dem Clavicembalo zu hören. Sie haben eine wunderbare Vorstellung davon, wie Bach das "Contraponto" für diese Variationen komponieren würde. Das war, als er durch einen schönen Wald voller Blumen ging und plötzlich einen entdeckte, der noch nie zuvor gesehen wurde ... Bach würde Ihre großartige Leistung lieben, liebe Chiara, das ist sicher! Bravissimo !!!
Je viens de réécouter Chaconne, interprétée par Chiara Massini. J'avais une meilleure écoute et j'ai trouvé cela sublime ! Encore plus qu'hier. Il faut absolument prêter une attention soutenue au jeu des grands artistes comme Chiara Massini. Cette version est vraiment magnifique, je ne vais pourtant pas en rester là et pour parfaire mon émotion, je vais écouter Daniil Trifonov dans sa version pour main gauche, transcription de Brahms. Ces deux interprétations n'ont pas à rougir l'une de l'autre.
Merci à vous, j'apprécie depuis de longues années vos interprétations, vous avez beaucoup de talent et Bach est vraiment le plus grand de tous les compositeurs.
Solo los predestinados pueden interpretar esta magna obra como Bach manda. Yo te saludo y mi cabeza se inclina ante Chiara porque has hecho toda una creación esplendida.
You are my favorite harpsichordist at playing Bach next to Helma Elsner! ...I do miss your long beautiful shiny dark hair though. ...either way you're beautiful!! Glad you're keeping this art form alive and thank you!!
You've been an absolutely amazing TH-cam discovery. Thanks a lot for uploading this. Keep up this good work. Also, I would love to see you playing some Pancrace Royer stuff.
At the same time a rigorous and passionate interpretation in which incredibly the technical necessities become an opportunity for elevation and, similarly to the flying buttresses of Gothic cathedrals, indispensable for their stability, they also enhance the perception of the upward thrust of the architectural design.
Una autèntica bellesa fonamentada en una atraient interpretació hipnòtica i una posada en escena extremadament cuidada que fan d'aquest video una de les millors experiències estétiques que he trobat per aqui. Moltes gràcies Chiara
Excuse my ignorance but was this originally written for the harpsichord? This is a piece that gets better every time you hear it and which gets better and better within the piece itself. As if it were written to take one gradually into some unspeakably profound realization of beauty. Thank you Bach! And thank you to this wonderful performer!

GLORIA a Bach
thank you Chiara, for helping me understand the real substantial texture of bach. Your interpretation is pure intelligence and clairvoyance. Thank you for your generosity
God Bless you Chiara. After a strenuous day operating patients in the E.R. you gave me calm and peace. Nice cut.Brava!
She's a surgeon as well ? .........What a gal !
A profound, moving, and objective interpretation, very much in the best Italian manner----an unusual sensibility among modern harpsichordists. I'm glad for this Leonhardt transcription, because Chiara Massini brings to it at once her flawless, objective technique, and ability to do justice to this ultimate transalpine music with all its half-frozen tensions and glories.
This unbelievably beautiful music, and the way you play this, still moves me so deeply that I cannot hold my tears… Grazie!
4:25 onwards made me cry. So much beauty!
Magnifique vocalité! Et merci de nous la donner à ce tempo qui nous permet d’accéder à toute là richesse du contrepoint, et avec quelle sensibilité ! Bravo aussi pour la qualité du film et ce splendide instrument
Mesmerising!!
The music itself is as amazing as your virtuous technique, dear Chiara! Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart!!!
Absolutely magnificent interpretation, as always!
Carissima Chiara, che piacere rivederti e risentirti, bella e brava come sempre! Magnifica questa Ciaccona eseguita in modo perfetto!
That performance was for the history books, masterful.
Brilliant execution! The more I listen to this, the more beautiful it becomes!!!
Grazie di cuore, Chiara !
One of Bach’s greatest works. And, dare I say it, you make it sound as though it were written for harpsichord rather than violin. Bravo Chiara!
Great technical support: Audio, Lightning, Video. You are an artist who’s performance is the stuff that dreams are made of.
Everything fits the music - her dress, her expressions, the tempo, and above all her playing.
I really like the sound of that harpsichord
Cara Chiara, sei la migliora clavecinista che conosco!
Meravigliosa! Grazie per tutto!
Meravigliosa interpretazione. Splendido timbro del clavicembalo bravissima!
Cara Chiara, you are simply the Harpsichord Goddess! No doubt about it.
The mysterious Beauty of this magical music is your own beauty. That’s why you look so natural. You’re not a Bach performer. Bach is the interpreter of your soul. Bravo.
Du hast alles gesagt, Herr Immanuel! Danke vielmals auf deiner Wörter!
This is truly wonderful! I've heard this Bach ciaconna by many violinist and in transcriptions for guitar and piano, but for some reason never for harpsichord. Why did I think it would not work on an instrument from Bach's own era? I'm glad to have happened across this interpretation. Thank you so much!
Genau so!

When I want to hear great cembalo music, strangely, I always look for chiara massini.
Incredibly beautiful, keep that great work up!!!😭❤️❤️❤️
Bravissima, cara Chiara! Complimenti!
Grazie mille.
Magico il lavoro di G. Leonhardt, magica l'interpretazione di Chiara. Credo che JSB in persona apprezzerebbe questa coraggiosa trascrizione, lui che era un mago in cose del genere. Bravo Gustav, bravissima Chiara!
Bravissima, Chiara! Inspirational musicianship and a beautiful instrument!
Chiara Massini-Cembalo ............She plays like an Angel!
Epic! thanks for sharing Chiara!!! Love your short hair too :D
That motto (dum vixi tacui / mortua dulce cano) gets an even deeper meaning when playing particularly this Leonhardt arrangement... Brilliantly played!
Grazie per la Bellezza che ci ha donato. Il mondo ha bisogno di Bellezza non superficiale. :)
Grazie anche per aver ricordato Gustav Leonhardt, che ho avuto il privilegio di ascoltare varie volte dal vivo. Lui era la Musica.
Masterful performance, and what a beautiful instrument she's playing.
Thank’s for the magnificent moment ! 👏👏👏
Grazie a Johann Sebastian, a Gustav Leonhardt ed alla fantastica interprete. Bravissima!!!
Everything about this video is just beautiful.

P.P.S.: complimenti per il nuovo look ;-)
La bellezza salverà il Mondo.
Ecco perchè siamo salvi.
Grazie Chiara Massini.
This edition is just perfect. Isnt it?
Non amo le trascrizioni e queste pagine immortali sono talmente uniche per lo strumento originale che scopro con stupore questo video...Grazie per questa emozione inattesa, Chiara Massimi, bellissimo!
Straordinaria interpretazione, complimenti e grazie di cuore.
Bravissimo Chiara ! Une magnifique interprétation toute en douceur calme et sérénité, à l'opposé de bien d'autres pleines de violence, alors qu'il n'y a jamais de violence chez JS Bach.
Monstrueux.
Le summum absolu de la musique, le sommet de l'art.
JS Bach a merveilleusement interprété la composition de Dieu....
gerard menvussa probably the greatest composition of all the time and of all the people
É Chiara e fica tudo dito. Como sempre, clareza, rigor, sensibilidade e aquele toque especial que confere uma sonoridade muito própria. Adorei mais esta magnífica interpretação. Bravo!
C'est magnifique ! merci Chiara ☼
Elegantissima esecuzione di una trascrizione magistrale. Bravissima
What a presence - what a present! Your music has healing power. We all are greatful to have you on earth. Luv MYW
Straordinaria trascrizione ed esucuzione❤
Chiara, you are a wonderful musician! Thank you for sharing your talent and love of music.✨🌻🍀🎶
getting TH-cam adds literally in the middle of the movement completely ruins it for me. Maybe put the ads at the beginning before the movement starts.
Take a youtube subscription. Not everything isn’t life is free of charge..
Congratulations on a magisterial performance! As a pretty decent violinist and harpsichordist, I prefer to hear and play this work more on the harpsichord! Keep up the brilliant work!
Directo al éxtasis... gracias Chiara, como siempre.
Si! Bravissima!
Mein Respekt für die hervorragende Ausführung, danke liebe Chiara!
Liebe die neue Frisur ;-)
Viele Erfolg und viele liebe Grüße aus Voorburg, Holland!

Splendid! Thank you very much for uploading
Magnífico Maestra. Interpretação irretocável
Thanks for the time and effort you invested into this. Think we appreciate it 1000 time.
Fantastic! Thank you Chiara
Bentornata fra noi, naturalmente ! E poi un omaggio al grande Leonhardt, indimenticabile Maestro... Degna esecuzione di questo immenso capolavoro.
thanks you do not know how much I needed this music ... you're amazing! I love your way of playing Bach.
L' ho talmente nel cuore e nell' anima questa Ciaccona che me la fischio spesso e volentieri anche quando vado all' Esselunga a fare la spesa. Cmq Chiara Massini a parte che ne è una splendida interprete, Bach è veramente una droga .... bravissima Chiara, ma veramente bravissima !!!!

Chiara Massini numero uno. Assolutamente !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Magnifica! Complimenti!
Amazing, very happy too see your back
Incredibly funny comment! The pitfalls of language.
Ben tornata dopo tanto tempo! Credevo ti fossi persa...
I have only one word for your interpretation of this magnificent piece: superbe!
The sound of that harpsichord is incredible. For me 8:42 up to the recap in D minor is one of the most transcendent moments in all music.
This transcription is in Sol minor!
And the transition in Sol Major
Magnifica interpretacion. La formula es simple: Bach + Chiara = Belleza Pura.
Solo los predestinados pueden interpretar esta magna obra como Bach manda. Yo te saludo y mi cabeza se inclina ante Chiara porque has hecho toda una creación esplendida.
You are my favorite harpsichordist at playing Bach next to Helma Elsner! ...I do miss your long beautiful shiny dark hair though. ...either way you're beautiful!! Glad you're keeping this art form alive and thank you!!
キアラさんのバッハは本当に素晴らしい！バッハのチェンバロはキアラさんが全て！
Stupenda Chiara.
Oh My God💪👍🤗
Great stuff. I play this while I’m painting. It makes me happy. Thank you.
Bellissima interpretazione di una pregevole trascrizione . Grazie
Che meraviglia. Una delle composizioni di Bach che amo di piu'. E che classe!
You've been an absolutely amazing TH-cam discovery. Thanks a lot for uploading this. Keep up this good work. Also, I would love to see you playing some Pancrace Royer stuff.

Wow! You took my breath away. Thanks so much Chiara
Chiara - wonderful playing. I’ve subscribed. 👌🏻
Beautiful! ❤️
Una autèntica bellesa fonamentada en una atraient interpretació hipnòtica i una posada en escena extremadament cuidada que fan d'aquest video una de les millors experiències estétiques que he trobat per aqui. Moltes gràcies Chiara
Meraviglioso tutto Chiara ... bella trascrizione anche ...
Bellissima interpretazione ed esecutrice
Meraviglia, da dove tutto nasce tutto ritorna, dal silenzio interiore che tace al silenzio che fa melodia. Brava, anzi Bravissima e bella.
Thank you for introducing me to this transcription of this piece.
A joy to listen to and to watch her.
The French overture style of the main theme with the double-dotted rhythms is a nice touch.
Virtuosismo puro.
Such an outstanding player. Brava!
Thank you! Short and dense! You've spoken what we all should...
tellement superbe...
Manifique. Merci.
Belíssima execução.
Merci madame !
Excuse my ignorance but was this originally written for the harpsichord?
This is a piece that gets better every time you hear it and which gets better and better within the piece itself. As if it were written to take one gradually into some unspeakably profound realization of beauty.
Thank you Bach! And thank you to this wonderful performer!
violin
Wonderfully beautiful baroque music.
