Ms Blumenstock is a great gift to the world. Her playing is sublime and hauntingly beautiful. She is unique in that her exquisite playing both combines technical virtuosity and raw emotional power.
There are so many players who master the technical problems without ever finding a tenth of the feeling and expression Elizabeth Blumenstock delivers here. This is absolutely transporting. Bravo!
I am actually weeping from this beautiful thing. Gosh, and I'm a Sinatra guy! I hope you can come to the West Los Angeles Veterans Hospital and bring some of this healing to us...
Magnificent performance of a beautiful piece of music! My heartfelt congratulations to all of you or making this world a better place to live in with your glorious music making. From your fan in Florence.
Gorgeously lugubrious music! Give Ms Blumenstock the biggest box of the most expensive chocolates available in town - she'd share them with the other musicians, but it would be a fitting gesture in appreciation of her skill.
There was a point in this video where I thought TH-cam was playing the video at 4x speed, but no, it was just Elizabeth Blumenstock playing effortlessly at the speed of light. What a treasure!
Back in the calmness of 17th century Schmelzer must have thought of the appropriateness of his exquisite baroque melodies for the anesthetic relaxation needs of the convoluted 21st century mind. Ms Blummenstock, superb artistic execution; fellow talented musicians of Voices of Music, sincere expressions of admiration; sound engineers, you have mastered the intricacies of how complicated high fidelity baroque music ought to sound to entrance a soul. Bravo!
Thank you, I will!! And you should listen to her work in the Corelli D Major, Op.6. No. 4. The beautiful voice of her exquisite Guarneri shines through and could very easily steal the performance were it not for Ms. Blumenstock's expert craftsmanship at shaping the phrases. Any violin would sing in her hands but when it's her Guarneri, she can move angels to tears.
I've played this sonata many times. Mrs. Blumenstock has a beautiful and worm sound that I much appreciate. Great playing with expressiveness seldom heard in baroque playing. Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic version! Best version recorded... Many thanks. Could Ms. Blumenstock record Biber's Rosary Sonata no. 16 - passacaglia? Everybody will love it...
We have a version of the Passacaglia already, so we probably won't film that one again soon. But there will be other videos with EB! th-cam.com/video/xqQRX0ptw3w/w-d-xo.html

Harold ChurchSpengler She is amazing :)
instablaster.
The amazing beauty and power of Schmelzer. There is nothing like it on this earth, thank god we can hear it 350 years later!
One of his best sonatas.
Of course they are just as good: Benedetto Ferrari, Cantata Spirituale ;)
There are so many players who master the technical problems without ever finding a tenth of the feeling and expression Elizabeth Blumenstock delivers here. This is absolutely transporting.
Bravo!
I have liked listening to all kinds of music, but there is nothing on the earth like this sort of music.
Everything I hear from this group brings me great joy. As a professional orchestral trumpeter I’ve heard it all but this group are sublime.
I totally agree!
Mme Blumenstock est d'une extraordinaire virtuosité, c'est tout simplement beau ...
Merci!
The sweetness and beauty of Ms. Blumenstock's playing is no doubt at least partly a result of the joy that often can be seen on her face as she plays.
Поздравляем всех музыкантов, особенно Миссис Блуменсток. Отличный концерт.
A Sublime Schmelzer performance. The violin sings beautifully.
I am actually weeping from this beautiful thing. Gosh, and I'm a Sinatra guy! I hope you can come to the West Los Angeles Veterans Hospital and bring some of this healing to us...
Sublime performance, this could melt anybody's heart (Schmelzer, schmelzen = melt)
Maestra Liz is magnificent in this real tribute to the art of elevated violin music!
Not knowing much about music, but the sound from her instrument seems so pure and clear.. This is beautiful
Schmelzer was a genius and this is a wonderful performance!
It's the best tone I've ever heard. thanks.
My my, I never realised how beautiful Blumenstock's sound is till I saw this video.
absultely superb... Mme Blumenstock is definitely the best violinist I ever heard
Thank you for sharing this on youtube. What a gift. So delicate and so sublime ... she raises dew drops off rose petals.
Well stated. She is very talented indeed.
You're welcome.
Magnificent performance of a beautiful piece of music! My heartfelt congratulations to all of you or making this world a better place to live in with your glorious music making.
From your fan in Florence.
Exquisite!! The gentle moaning of the cello and organ in the background, the occasional whispering of the lute........lovely!
Magnificent finale and well deserved applause. Very well played.
Gorgeously lugubrious music! Give Ms Blumenstock the biggest box of the most expensive chocolates available in town - she'd share them with the other musicians, but it would be a fitting gesture in appreciation of her skill.
WOW! IT WENT FROM SOFT AND SWEET TO FAST AND FURIOUS! BRAVO!
Écoute,écouter, encore écouter : quel bonheur.
Y a t il mieux ?
MERCI.
Love the curls EB! Great to see the old Guarneri too...
How beautiful!
wow she playing like a bird
So sensitive and sweet wind of autumn:) from Seoul South Korea
Remarkable playing. I could feel it physically, right in the parietal lobe!
Schmeltzer: vanguardista;
Ms. Blumenstock et al.: auténticos!
Gracias a 'Voices of Music'.
There was a point in this video where I thought TH-cam was playing the video at 4x speed, but no, it was just Elizabeth Blumenstock playing effortlessly at the speed of light. What a treasure!

Exquisite beauty! One of my favorite baroque pieces. This is awesome!
Onbeschrijfelijk mooi en gedragen. De ultieme perfectie!

Signora Elisabeth lei suona come un angelo
This is the best yt channel ever... Thanks for such generosity :) hugs from Brazil.
I absolutely adore Ms. Blumenstock and her musicianship. Brava!
She's amazing--also view the Biber E Minor Sonata!
Thank you, I will!! And you should listen to her work in the Corelli D Major, Op.6. No. 4.

Ogni volta mi commuovo per tanta meraviglia. Grazie
What can one say except, wow.
Agree!

Ms Blumenstock is singing more than playing, and her violin is her human voice.

Absolutely sublime. Takes me to another world

Wow, such a beautifully harmonious sound you have. So wonderful to hear and see. Thank you so much!
Maravilloso, como estos músicos entusiastas dibujan melodías al margen de la línea musical del bajo continuo, me gusto muchísimo.
Magnificent! Four of my favorite musicians.
Glorious.
Thank you for this video. Great concerto! Penetrate inner soul!
