Bach: Gavottes, Cello suite Nr.6 | Ophélie Gaillard

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 พ.ค. 2011
- In his six Suites for unaccompanied violoncello, J. S. Bach invented a style that is specific to that instrument, while exploring all its technical possibilities to the full. Over the years, the Suites have become a monument of the cello repertoire, to which all cellists return regularly. Some of the greatest of them did not record these works until they reached their years of maturity (Casals was over sixty, Rostropovich was sixty-three), while others have not hesitated to present several versions (Yo-Yo Ma, 1990, 1998; Janos Starker, 1957, 1963, 1983).
Ophélie Gaillard is among the latter. Her first recording of the Suites, released on the Ambrosia label in 2000, was highly acclaimed internationally by the critics and her performance earned her a French Classical Music Award (Victoire) as a "Revelation" in the Solo Instrumentalist category.
Ten years later, at the request of Nicolas Bartholomée, artistic director of the label, she agreed to record a new version on a cello made in 1737 by Matteo Goffriller, a contemporary of J. S. Bach. Ophélie Gaillard had already given us a reference performance of these pieces. Now we discover a prodigiously renewed vision of this masterpiece."

That rendition is nothing else then a WONDER.
The interpreter is a Dryad,
a wood nymph,
une nymphe des bois, merveilleuse!
Merci pour un si grand cadeau!
In a tree with cello was she, at one with nature and music you see, what a lovely, lovely place to be.
Dear Ophélie, Your playing is gorgeous! You don't need to hide in a tree!
A performance that is light and graceful, rather than the blocky muscularity that one often hears in this piece. Blessed are those who have a five-stringed cello for the sixth Suite... and blessed are they who have the sensibility to exploit such an instrument's potential to the full!
Dang! I never knew that fields and trees in France had such wonderful acoustics!
People, it is a 5 stringed baroque violoncello piccolo. She is using a baroque bow.
Simply wonderful. A five string cello is the right thing for the sixth suite. Playing it on four strings is a stretch. I love the cheeky little extra grace notes. Thank you Ophélie. You bring joy to an old lapsed ‘cellist.
I didn’t know there were different types of cello 😂
Not piccolo
Certifié intergalactique! Son de violoncelle merveilleux!
i hope one day i found a cello behind a tree ...
RicHardAndHeavy
and a chair 😂
ON MY MOMMA THOUGH!!
i'm totally impressed. i never heard such a clean and musically eloborated version. thx for posting.
Une prestation certes envoûtante, Ophelie est une fierté pour notre cher canton et sa sixième suite reste inégalée dans mon estime, ce violoncelle piccolo est une vraie merveille
I love her ornamentations!
i think the best part of this video is when she's playing the cello in a tree! muchswagg
Que hermosa pieza!!, y tan excelentemente interpretada, es tan bella como inspira calma, paz y tranquilidad además de inspirar mi mente, es realmente genial. Solo puedo decir que es una gran intérprete y quien haya combinado a esa hermosa melodía con tan bellas imágenes naturales, debe ser un genio.
Simplemente bello y exquisito tal interpretación del gran Bach por esta hermosa dama tan dotada para este noble menester musical.
Listening to this when studying is so relaxing
Fantastic !
It obviously does its job splendidly in the hand of this wonderful musician
Adoro la tranquilidad que me transmite, saludos. 🌹
Very nice music, Ophelie and very original playing up in a tree - in nature!
i'm in love of thy interpretation! thanks
Wonderfully picturesque setting to play the cello in.
Gracias!
Lindo!!!!
.....To play that beautifully and effortlessly. Just amazing.
Edit: I just watched this video again while I was practitioner my cello at home. It almost made me cry. What a great technique you have. Incredible.
Merci !
wow!
c'est très dansant Venez Ophélie virevolter au milieu de la forêt! les oiseaux d e la clairière se sont tus et il n’y plus que vous et vos admirateurs enchantés par votre interprétation sublime
beautiful sound with baroque bow :)
what a timbre!So many musicians play like romantic manner,is wrong! like this a baroque style.... is right... congratulation
I'm like the Tex Avery's wolf ! You rock !
bravo
I love 💕
Bello!!!
I wonder what kind of E string she uses^^ it sounds lovely
❤️
I have always appreciated Ms. Gaillard's talent and musical delivery. I am familiar with these suites and when I started to watch I wondered why her left hand was in such a low position. Then I counted the strings! I have been tempted over the years to add a fifth string to my cello...but that seems like cheating :) It is not.
Arthur Royce wait how do you ADD a fifth string. Weird question coming from Bach
2:20 so natural~
joli paysage...
Well...those trees make really good reverb :-D
💜🎶🎵💖🎵🎶💜
When she went up into the that tree and I was like...Wow!
love the idea of a high E string, notice some cello's mainly carbon fibre are sold with a low F!
less reason to use thumb position ;)
where do you find this beautiful nature?
Пьер Гаран France...
Perhaps in switzerland or in France
What a strange idea to play outside with an indoor sound!
Is that good for the cello to place on the ground leaning against a tree?
What's keeping the chair from sinking into the ground?
what size cello are you using?
nice double stops.
5 string cello was quite common in the baroque days before the extension of the fingerboard. So high register playing often requires the use of 5 string cello.
Cello is easy or hard to learning as the beginner?How much to learn Cello?
That bow is not weird, this is baroque bow :)
Wow it actually sounds like a viola da gamba!
Révérée Madame Gaillard, je suppose : Pas aucun de votre admirateurs a trouvé, que vous etez une DRYADE, une nymphe des arbres. Mais votre performance est merveilleus dryatique. Je ne connais pas une autre musicienne avec si beaucoup amour aux arbres! MERCI pour votre - aux aspects de musique et d’illustration - si parfaite performance. - Veit Feger veit-feger.homepage.t-online.de
This piece is so much easier on 5 string cello (viola de gama)
Гавот Баха звучит очень по-французски. Это меня удивляет.
5strings on her cello ?!?!?!?!?!?!
Yes... Bach originally wrote the sixth suite for a five-string cello.
Winnie Tam there is a version of the cello called the baroque cello. It was typical in the 17-18 hundreds. It is still used in Europe and very good cellists
It is called violincello picolo invented by js Bach to be used in the 6th cello suite. There are arrangements of the suite to be played on a modern cello
Yes, Bach wrote this Suite for a cello fitted out with an E-string, tuned a fifth higher than the A-string. The most important surviving manuscript (known as the Anna Magdalena manuscript) bears this inscription in faulty French: "A' cinq accords." What was meant was, "A' cinq cordes", which can be translated as: "For five strings."
hey, would love to know ofhow you manage your cello to sound so much like a viola da gamba, i hope you see this! please do not tell me it's just because of the baroque bow, is it? hugs
Leandro Vega Duré The higher strings are made of gut instead of steel, like a viola da gamba. Plus her baroque bow is thinner than modern bows, so its got a more delicate sound
hi leonardo, it's Ophelie. im sorry my manager wont allow me to give my secrets away that make me the best cellist around... Best regards, Ms. Gaillard
Leandro Vega Duré Gut strings
Leandro Vega Duré
It is a baroque cello, so it has gut strings like a viola de gamba because the body is weaker than a modern cello, and cannot handle steel strings.
Maybe because of the violoncelle piccolo (you noticed it has 5 strings)
Cello's beget chairs...
She seems to have forgotten a gavotte is a lively dance. This sounds sad
that is one weird looking bow
That is a baroque bow.
It's a Baroque bow.
I WONDER WAT KINDA BOW DAT SHIT BE
Fantastic!
