Now I really understand why TwoSetViolin loves her so much. O.O She's AMAZING!
And not only them...
Not only they do...
ikr
little Maid of the moon she meant why twosetloves her
doesnt mean only they love here
@@evilhutdug4665 just dont take it critical, it had a fun meaning😁😉
When I first started listening to Bach, I thought "how is it possible a human being can play this?". My next thought was "how is it possible a human being could write this?". And now, after all these years, I'm back to my first question.
I love you Hilary!
I mean writing it is at least as impressive.
Got another question for you... How do you memorize that?
@@illbeback126
You memorise it as you practice, there's no secret actually.
Truth is that it's only natural to memorise a piece after spending dozens of hours practicing said-piece, as a matter of fact, it would take a stupid brain not to have it memorised after practicing it for so long.
@@lerigoureux6474 Bah... even if the brain farts, your muscles will remember :D

This is so therapeutic, every note is crystal clear, not to mention the acoustics. It’s hard not to fall in love with Hilary Hahn and her violin playing.
You don't need to be in love with a violinist to appreciate their music. I respect her dedication and hard work, and I think she has produced some stellar recordings.
@@Musicienne-DAB1995😂
it's nervous... trying to express your clevernous in the least amount of time avaiablable
Man she can even control the tilt angle of the bow for each note at that speed! So clean! Every note rings true. Hilary Hahn is a violin goddess!
only because most men who are put into this line end up becoming gay and pursuing selfish routes
I'm a simple man. When I see a Hilary Hahn video, I press like.
😁
Haha definetly. She's amazing.
Thank goodness she's on this planet.
Actually you aren't simple because that's natural behavior of human.

Dear Fan! Do you understand that this video was created to sell the new Hilary CD? Bach, classical music is used as a way to produce coins (crisp green paper $) for Hilary & Co! This is a money making machine!
This makes me want to cry and practice at the same time
Why not both
Crytice it is then
pracrysinate
Both at the same time would be most efficient
Combining the two is pretty easy
Could it have crossed Bach's mind that some 350-400 years later his music would be so accessible and appreciated and more importantly presented and played so beautifully.
It's not quite that old yet. He was only born 335 years ago. I remember recently his Brandenburg concertos turned 300
@@masonwelty8058 Ah, the good old days
not at all thats a really stupid thought honestly
@@2Boios Okay smart boy
if we had any standards in society she would be outskilled X100@@nandans2506
That little smile at the end says "I nailed it", and she did. What a marvel!
what a dumb idiot! the music inspired by God reduced to a cocky female.
The best Bach interpreter alive. Everything is so crisp and clean.
Glen gould will always be best ever though
I prefer historical performance myself, but she is indeed a fantastic player
I prefer *LING* *LING*
The Irish Fluter I think Gould’s interpretations of Beethoven are really the highlights of his repertoire. I prefer Andras Schiff for Bach.
Reinhard Goebel?

Totally agreed!!

man i will really never reach the tone quality
Why the hell this woman doesn't have millions of followers? She's an alive representation of music! I'm so proud to say I play the same instrument she plays. I love you Hilary!
Simply the best violinist of our time; no one is even close.
Imagin Chloe Chua at her age.
Do you know Carolina Kurkowski?
Nah it about passion on violin if you have to learn it slowly,you sure can mastered it,even if it takes 15 years or more to master it
Fixed: _One_ of the best alive. Probably the best Bach violinist alive.
@@SSFWElyone Have you ever listened to a Baroque violinist? I find Shunske Sato and Rachel Podger's Bach performances to be far more interesting than Hahn's:

And now, with 15 notes a second 😌😬

Sacrilegious boi
I love how she is uber talented but yet knows how to have fun and goof around with the twoset violinists.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah WOW!~ THAT S REALLLLLLY FUNNY!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA
I'm here because of an assignment from my private teacher in violin, and I have no regrets
You can *feel* the dedication and hard work
Same!!! My teacher is trying to give me some good examples of how to move your elbow while playing bow.
As a student, these videos can either make you throw your hands up in defeat or spur you on to practice and try harder to be your very best! Keep striving to be your best!
She is one of the few violinists i can listen to for a long period of time. Musicality, tone, and pitch, she has it all.
bimyo
This performance was excellent but it was lacking hula hoops
the quality comment i was lookin for
Yes!
Tiberiu Nicolae :)
Tiberiu Nicolae was that in a Two Set Violin video? They are awesome.
I need you in my life XD
Literally, I can hear every note. Makes me want to stare at my violin and contemplate the meaning of my life... so unfair = ((((
Well it's recorded?
Kimberly Takes the They're talking about articulation
True true. She’s legit a machine. When I hear her, it’s like I want to put my violin through the wall. So good it’s discouraging. Like wth(heck).
She's clean like dayum. And whats more impressive is i dont even play any instrument, i just like music in general and any genre too. Impressive how? I'm not Biased.
I wonder, how many tens of thousands of hours it took her in practice to reach this point?
Incredible precision and musical sensitivity. Everything is perfectly crystal clear. And while making it look too easy for her! Absolutely exceptional playing. Bach would approve 👏👏👏👏👏
Her performances are not just intellectual.
Her performances are from the heart, too.
I always felt that one of the most beautiful threads between the physical and the divine is music, and Hilary Hahn is without a doubt masterful weaver. Not just owing to her devotion to violin playing and practicing to perfection, but her heart is cast with a fierce love, which is the essence of ascending to this level of achievement.

Violinist Gidon Kremer receives Praemium Imperiale Award, worth £100,000
13 September 2016
The Japan Art Association " The Praemium Imperiale (lit. "World Culture Prize in Memory of His Imperial Highness Prince Takamatsu", Japanese: 高松宮殿下記念世界文化賞, Takamatsu no miya denka kinen sekai bunka-shō) is an international art prize awarded since 1989 by the Imperial family of Japan on behalf of the Japan Art Association in the fields of painting, sculpture, architecture, music, and theatre/film.[2] These are areas of achievement not covered by the Nobel Prize. The prizes are awarded for outstanding contributions to the development, promotion and progress of the arts." Wikipedia
GIDON KREMER :
Der weltberühmte Geiger Gidon Kremer schreibt in einem neuen Buch ,,Briefe an eine junge Pianistin": ...,,Kaum zu glauben: Es gibt im Handel mit Musikern erstaunliche Begriffe wie ,,das neue französische/ englische/ deutsche Talent", ,,new face of the next generation" oder einfach ,,rising star" usw. Heute schrieb mir ein Kollege von einer jungen Begabung, die man der Welt gleichzeitig als Model und Geigerin ,,in einem Flacon" anbietet. Egal ob es sich um Pianisten oder Geiger handelt, das riecht stark nach Kosmetikprodukten. Da erhebt sich die Frage: Wollen wir bei diesem Wettbewerb mitmachen? ...Warum bemühen sich viele Künstler, besonders vorteilhaft auszusehen? Woher kommt deise Krankheit? Liegt es an unserer Zeit? Am demokratisierten Geschmack und in der Folge am Diktat des Marktes? Sind Künstler,die sich auf diesen Ausverkauf einlassen, total unschuldig? Ich habe da meine Zweifel...Auf diesem Markt ist nämlich viel Falschgeld im Umlauf." ... ..."Die ganze Musikindustrie ist auf dem Prinzip des ständigen Beschäftigtseins aufgebaut. Je gefragter ein Musiker ist, desto bedeutender fühlt er sich. Welch großer Unterschid besteht doch zwischen den "Diener" der Musik und ihren "Benutzern"! So wie in der Kirche zwischen den wahren Hirten und den von der Religion schmarotzeden Kuttenträgern! Viele aufsteigende "Sterne" brennen vor Verlangen, "sich zu zeigen", und genau dieses "Brennen" macht sich ihr Umfeld zunutze. Das Ergebnis ist, dass der "Stern" ein mittelmäßiges Produkt abzuliefern beginnt. ..."
The notes are so clear. I is SHOOK.
edit june 2020 : ok people that are arguing down below, its been literally an year, everyone chill, it's ok to have different opinions and lets just be good little children and listen to some music (also ty for 1k likes!:p)
@@yasminaburger1957 no lol you don't know what you're talking about. Not every piece has vibrato 😔
@@yasminaburger1957 It may seem autotuned because it has no vibrato. Vibrato in a sense is changing the pitch slightly but very fast which is why it doesn't sound like one note. Where as if you have played for a while and have good intonation when you leave out vibrato you are not changing the frequency and it is very clear. If you're playing baroque pieces you don't use vibrato which is why Hilary didn't use vibrato. I can guarantee you that she did not auto tune it. If you have played for a while and have good intonation plus good acoustics you will have a very precise sound. It's very bold of you to assume that since you obviously don't know what you're talking about.
@@yasminaburger1957 You should go hear her play in person she is like a goddess. ;)
@@mishacarter Let's wait for her spectrum analysis of this recording.

This is probably the most beautiful video I’ve ever seen. I’m a violinist. Hillary Hann, you’re like superhuman. ❤️

Answers question with YES
this
And does god exist? Nothing comes closer to convincing me than Bach!
Not if you're trying to play it...
To get through this tough time, all I need is just a playlist of a Hahn playing Bach's.
Good decision. I have listened to her playing Chaconne many times.
It's hard to explain, but for some reason this performance had me crying. It's just so stunning.
There is never any overemphatisation in her play. It´s just the purest form of delivery. Nothing but respect and love for her.
Look how relaxed she is!
Marianna M she’s a stinking machine.
Don't really know what purpose has your comment
Donovan Williams well, I don’t see you performing music at the highest level and garnering international fame
Practice brings that kind of confidence. Like walking into a test knowing you're getting an A
The way she walks off afterwards makes me think of her as like a magical little elf in the middle of the woods does something amazing walks off, with no one as an audience and no one really ever sees it but just the FeElS. Like a myth........like a lingling
The filming crew: Alright so from what angle are we going to film her?
The cameraman: *yes*
LOL, yeah, they a bit overdid it on the cutscenes. It's not an action movie.
You have got to be the most detailed violinist I have ever heard. You kept the tempo nearly consistent throughout the whole time. Not needing to slow down where it was difficult like most players, giving it a sound that can be seen as genuine as the composer intended.
That's a bit over exaggerated. If you slow down because it's difficult and if you slow down in a Bach piece you're definitely not a professional not even a decent musician.
@@dowal199 lol fr... what even is this comment "wow u were on time while playing!" wtf
@@user-tz9jh6pv2jikr
Wow she sure does play every single note with precision. And her dynamics are DYNAMIC.
I am loving this video more and more. At first I thought the gigue should be played also so it is complete. But now I think for 3.5 minutes of Bach this is just perfect, all single notes giving us everything, I am struck by the humor Bach shows with his inversions and upside down tricks. This is played so perfectly, so full of life and verve, her dancing is great too, it is like Bach is flowing thru her making all of her move to it.
Yes, Bach's humour is there.
One of the tope violinists on the concert circuit today! Wow Wow Wow! Those who have grown up on the violin the last 80 years or know the violin, will be blown away! Robert.
She is my favorite performer of anything Bach. I feel like her interpretations are the truest way Bach should be played, I love her phrasing.
I greatly enjoy her performance of Bach's works. I listened to her performance of his Chaconne numerous times.
that smile at the camera at the 3:30 says "THAT's how you do it!"
amazing
there is no 3:30 lol
@@gabeclark8050 The whole vid is 3 minutes 33 seconds,,, in case you blind.
Literally every note sounds perfect and she makes it look so easy.
Hilary and Bach combined, A THREAT! She is a perfectionist indeed.. all the notes are there, so clear and clean.. she made it sounds easy to listen..
This performance makes me feel that I play like a potatoe.

It's one of my goals in life to meet you and hear you play live.
You deserve so many more followers.
Nikocado Avocado I’ve been too her concerts and I have her signature, I also play violin. I’m sure you will get the chance!
Lol it’s you
Hi Nick I can't believe you like her too. 💕
My man! Good to know you have great taste in music
Kind of not surprised to see you here. You play the violin relatively well. Why not live your life doing what you love 𝙖𝙣𝙙 getting paid for it lol.
No joke, every time I play this through my outdoor speakers, birds stop singing.
I grew up with, Szeryng and then Perlman my favorites. I have to say she is on their level at least. This is how Bach is to be played, with passion and drive and of course intonation. Every note is paid attention to. I have noticed my favorite violinists are the ones that play Bach well, it makes their performance of everything else so great. I love her Sibelius and of course everything else. Her pure intonation in Bach makes it so vital and alive, just terrific of my favorite Corrente and the great double here. All single notes Bach does everything, bass, inner voices, soprano, turns them upside down and inside out while following the harmony of the Corrente. I just marvel at this movement and it is played here like Bach himself.
Totally agree, and I have watched her Sibelius performances many times.
This is what love looks like. A perfect harmony of intent, passion, dedication, integrity and joy.
I was very lucky to hear her play Brahms and Stravinsky live many years ago. She was amazing then and has improved significantly.
I feel fortunate that she still shares her love of music with the world. Such beauty is rare and such inspiration to great achievement is needed most in times like these.
Opening my eyes: the best violinist playing Bach. Closing my eyes: Ms. Hann! Haifetz? Paganini himself? Joseph Joaquim?...Hilary: you are perfection, outstanding perfection!! Thank you.
Paganini make Songs, a lot, Hilary only reproduce Songs
@Charlotte Shum not as hilary..
@@leesiheon8013 uuuh ah classical music scholar... tell me do you play any instrument or sing?
@@leesiheon8013 i like song word because it is known by normal people like me, but if you go deeper you will realize that playing an instrument is nothing more than singing a melody through it, there are many musicians who sing while playing, like this video of clara jumi kang th-cam.com/video/kuC7Km_3cOo/w-d-xo.html
Absolutely stunning. Inspiration to all violinists, all musicians, and beyond. Fascinating.🙏
Don't have any words for this. A beautiful, talented, and exceptionnal interpreter for a piece by the one man who could stuff the essence of the universe in 3 minutes of divine music. Nothing will describe better the depth of the emotions rocking my soul than the 2 silent tears slowly rolling down my cheeks. And no, I'm not sad. Just moved in a way that nothing else could express.
The music is so vivid and flowing , thanks to Hillary Hahn and good ol' Johann Sebastian Bach!
Wow. Brilliant phrasing, articulation and dynamics. And that tone... Would be great to see her in concert.
Hey there.
I'm 13.
I play the piano.
I have never touched a violin in my life.
I came across her name by coincidence.
But my God, even I can tell, this is AMAZING.
Greetings from a 15 yr old piano player
Greetings from Grimy, old conductor
And another 15 year old piano player.
And a 22 year old singer
And a random 18-year-old with no instrument.
wtf it's my first time listening to violin music being this clear, feeling like every single note is an open string
That smile when you know you CRUSHED IT
I love you Hilary Hahn ❤️ you always sound so beautiful and elegant! I also play the violin too and I strive to be as good as you. Your vilolin playing inspired me and I'm obsessed with classical music and want to play it myself. I love you!!❤️🤗👍
Simply the greatest violinist of our time, without doubt.
Bach, Hilary Hahn, and the acoustics of that room - who can ask for more?
I went through listening to all violinists from the 1900s and recent and for me none of them plays Bach the way Hilary does. Milstein, Oistrakh, Grumiaux, Perlman, Heifetz. So lucky to have these artists playing at my fingertips but somehow I choose to listen to Hilary Hahn EVERY time (when it comes to Bach)
THE ELEGANCE!!!!!
GIDON KREMER , Braumüller : ..."Schauen wir uns doch um: Wie und wem applaudiert die Menge? An erster Stelle stehen heute oft die "Stars". Das sind jene, denen es gelungen ist, ihr Talent zu "beweisen", Wettbewerbe zu gewinnen und in die Riege derer aufzusteigen, die von Managern und Musikproduzenten zu den vielversprechendsten und zukunftsträchtigsten "Hoffnungen" gezählt werden. Der Großteil derer, die an diesem Prozess beteiligt sind (inklusive der Talente selbst), denkt weniger an die (klassische oder moderne) Musik als an die Anerkennung, im Sinne einer gewissen "Berühmtheit", die für den Umsatz notwendig ist. Die Konzentration auf die "Quantität" (der verkauften Eintrittskarten, CDs und Tourneen) ist ein gnadenloser Prozess. Es überlebt der, dessen Lächeln am überzeugendsten wirkt. Er wird in der Folge auch das Objekt von Nachahmung und Vergötterung. Der Name des Pianisten Lang Lang (sein Pendant in Russland wäre wahrscheinlich Denis Mazujew) drängt sich hierbei förmlich auf. Die jugendliche Dynamik mulipliziert mit dem Talent, Wunderdinge auf der Klaviatur vollbringen zu können, ist das große Los. Wer kümmert sich in so einem Fall schon darum, WAS gespielt wird? Die Hauptsache ist, WER spielt! Die vom Erfolg beflügelten Talente beginnen auf der Suche nach "Sponsoren" mit den Reichen und Mächtigen zu flirten, mit Politikern, mit Oligarchen, mit ihresgleichen. ...Was das alles mit der Musik zu tun hat? Überhaupt NICHTS! Mehr noch, es breitet sich eine Art "Verschmutzung des Umfelds" und der Seele aus. Jene Obertöne, denen der Musiker verpflichtet (und bisweilen fähig) ist zu dienen, füllen nicht mehr den Raum. Übrig bleiben "leere Klänge". Und auch wenn nicht alle Verehrer des "Stars" diese Veränderung sofort bemerken, kommt sie doch wie ein Bumerang zurück und zerstört mit der Zeit die Begabung des Helden sowie seinen (einstigen) Ruhm.....Wer der Musik dient, wird ihr immer treu bleiben. Er wird sich keine anderen Götter erschaffen. Früher oder später wird auffallen, dass "der Kaiser ja nackt" ist! ..."
Truly amazing, I agree.
Mario DiSarli Bitte lass dieses wundervolle Talent in Ruhe. Der einzige, der sich hier nur um Berühmtheit schert, bist du - diese Musik ist einfach einzigartig, fast jeder hier weiß das, und solche Spams wie dich kann man hier echt nicht gebrauchen.
독주라고는 믿기지 않을 정도로 풍성한 소리와 아름다운 음색에 놀랐습니다. 영상이 끝나고 광고가 나올 때까지 아무것도 할 수 없었습니다.
I am going to watch your concert today and I am so excited!!!! 🎻
They should have had those sunglasses come down onto her face at the end of this video.
living legend. Best Bach interpreter ever. I love me some milstein, but even he hasn't reached this level of perfection. Cleanest bach recordings EVER.
У интерпретации Hilary Hahn есть одна особенность - поначалу её трактовку встречаешь настороженно, а потом начинаешь искать все её исполнения и не можешь оторваться от этой прекрасной музыки! Браво!
WOW! was für eine Frau, welches können! Mehr als beeindruckend. Ich bin absolut begeistert.
My CD notes for my Arthur Grumiaux CDs says that Bach finally finished the sonatas and partitas in 1720. They are incredible pieces of music and 300 years old!
I have been watching and listening to Hilary Hahn for some time now, as she has grown physically and musically, and I feel she is really something very special. Her fluidity of expression, phrasing, assured intonation, and apparent effortlessness when playing, is remarkable, and something to behold. She has become my favourite interpreter of the Bach Partitas / Sonatas for solo violin. But when I hear her play the Brahms or Sibelius violin concertos, and others, I feel she is just as brilliant when interpreting classical and romantic music. I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that Ms Hahn may well be this era's female Jascha Heifetz. And no...I am not kidding. Thank you Hilary for sharing your great gift (and hard work!) with us lesser mortals !
Couldn't agree more !
This is gorgeous! I can next see Hilary in a forest with gentle sunlight streaming across her face wearing a crown with flowers in her hair and a beautiful gown as she plays
I love how she just walks away at the end like a boss!
Listening on a Sennheiser open-back...
Every crisp note in this fantastic performance is making me happy. I need this not to end, every time I rehear it.
You'd go insane if this played nonstop. Better is hear it again in a couple of years on a special occasion with a special setting. Starve urself then come back, it'll taste noice?
weird flex but ok
I don't usually listen to clasical music and I am an atheist, but with Bach it's totally different: I get goosebumps and can feel god's presence
Baroque music!
@Ballstavius Deadeyes No, a subjective feeling is not the same as objective reality. I am a scientist. As far as we can tell based on the evidence, there is no god like the one Bach imagined, but I can feel his music and understand what he wanted to transmit. But no god, I'm afraid.
Mind-boggling. Heart-breaking. Breath-taking. B E A U T I F U L !
When 3 minutes felt like an eternity
Sometimes, when I listen carefully, I just stop and think... HOW the sound, intonation , everything is sooooooo good.
@Moses magen : Why does Ling Ling have to practice so much? Can't he get it right?
Astounding! I can just shake my head in wonder at your skill and ability. Thank you for putting so many hours of your life into practicing and becoming this good! You are a living treasure. We should put you in a museum you are so valuable.
The quality of BOTH the video/audio recording, AND the interpretation/performance are just SO SO GOOD. What a gift for us all.
She’s my favourite living violinist and certainly one of the very, very best musicians of all time. I subbed a week with the Atlanta Symphony when she played Prokofiev 1. Rehearsal, dress rehearsal and three performances with encores and not a note out of place or out of character. She might be the greatest dancer ever to play the violin. She understands that instrumental performance is storytelling through music; it is ballet for the fingers. Watching Hilary one can see every phrase of the music that these digital dancers perform somewhere in her body. From her eyebrows to the floor it’s all there and every movement is elegant and beautiful. ❤
And we’re “Vuillaume Buddies”! ❤
The piece is absolutely genius. That we already know.
Hahn on the other side, will never stop to surprise me. Such a talent, such a passion, such beauty to the ears, all that in a single piece.
Thanks for allowing us to listen to that wonder.
Don't be the man who threw his sax into the river after hearing Charlie Parker. Be Paul Desmond instead! Be inspired and influenced but let her mastery encourage you to recommit to your own path. EVERY individual is unique and so is what ever it is you have to contribute to the world. Allow these points of light to take weight off your shoulders, to create depressurization, to enable that unique Buddhist freedom and creativity bestowed only to those who can aspire to be (no body special) Now work even harder but happily 🙏☯️
No words. Unfeckingbelievable...Wow!
This is why Hilary is my fav violinist of all the time!
Glenn Gould for piano. Hillary Hahn for violin. Two greatest specialists in Bach.
BACH to the future is Hilary Hahn. Her Sound is always crispier than fried chicken.
Hilary,
Until this year I had never listened to classical music of any kind.
I stumbled across a video of you playing with an orchestra some years ago, and after that I was hooked.
You are the most skilled violinist I have ever heard.
Thank you! For helping me expand my understanding of what real music is.
Music like this transcends time. You hear rock and metal guitarists playing so many notes per second. Well, here is Bach doing it 200 years earlier!
Breathtaking!
The first thing that "hits" one is the glorious wall of sound!
The second thing is that world class confidence and relentless control.
The third is the passionate ebb and flow as waves of emotion wash over one, always moving forward.
A wonderful display and statement of musical power.
That's how it's done!
Violin's have the most appealing sound ever. I wish I knew how to play
I don't think I can pick up this instrument in my late 30s. :) I play the piano.
I wish I could play too. Lots of websites dedicated to music (and violinists themselves) agree that adults can, in fact, learn the violin. From what I gathered, what makes it complicated is that either you tell yourself you can't, so you don't, or you think you should use your time for something else, so you don't practice enough. It's never too late!
For me though? My walls aren't soundproofed enough for me to learn the violin x) I need to move first
You gotta practice
How would I describe it ... Her playing is incredibly elegant, strong and delicate at the same time. Causes some kind of wonderful pain in the soul.
wow i don't have words, just it's so beautiful and with a perfection
This is crazy. Playing Bach looks easy, but playing it without a mistake is a level of gods and godesses.
Love Maestro Hahn's violin, especially the Bach!
Ah... I never knew I could hold my breath that long ! Are we to believe that Bach himself could play this !??
Bach had to wait several centuries to someone who could understand his complicated mind, but then Hillary arrived at this room and got it ,playing by heart with a simple smile ...🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍👍
wha... wha.... I dOn'T uNdErStAnD. How is she so good?!?!
Amazing, I‘m totaly in love with this performance!
I am new to this, and watching violinist play these beautiful masterpiece makes my heart beat. I can even hear it despite having my earphones on.
Unglaublich gut gespielt!!!
Ling-Ling is so proud of you !!!!
She is truly a gem 💎!!❤ I really want to meet her one day!!
That was amazing, so clear and all so lovingly too.
You truly are a living inspiration

la bellezza "classica"
Soprani e violiniste sul sito della rivista
ALBERTO MATTIOLI
TORINO
Era inevitabile. Da quando anche nel mondo della musica cosiddetta classica, tradizionalmente serioso e/o polveroso, è scoppiata la Grande Guerra del look, è tutto un fiorire di violiniste-modelle, violoncelliste-pinup e soprani-veline. Una volta le maggiorate della lirica erano come la Caballé, oggi restano le curve, ma nei punti giusti. Se i più reputati dischifici hanno ormai abbandonato il cd solo audio per il dvd anche video, allora anche l’occhio voglia la sua parte. L’evoluzione della specie ci consegna virtuose-top con fisici slanciati, sguardi assassini, sexy look: roba da mille e una note.
La notizia è che se n’è accorta anche la più celebre rivista per soli uomini (o, come dicono le femministe, per uomini soli). Così, il sito di Playboy ha lanciato «Too hot to Handel», sondaggio su «the sexiest babes of classical music», invitando i guardoni on line a votare la più bella fra dieci bellissime della musica colta. Le foto sono castigate, dato che nessuna delle magnifiche ha mai posato senza veli. Ma resta il fatto che Playboy sdogana la bellezza in chiave di violino, spiegando ai suoi lettori che la «nerdy reputation» (traduciamola come va fatto: la reputazione da sfigati) della classica appartiene definitivamente al passato.
Quanto alla selezione del Coniglietto, qualcosa da obiettare ci sarebbe. Innanzitutto per la predilezione per le violiniste: sei su dieci sono troppe. Oltretutto tale Jennifer Frautschi, pur provvista di «pretty face», non è proprio una star «global» come le colleghe Hilary Hahn, Leila Josefowicz, Julia Fischer, Janine Jansen e Anne-Sophie Mutter. A proposito della Mutter: la bellezza non rima sempre con giovinezza, dato che l’ex pupilla di Karajan ed ex moglie di Prévin ha 45 anni (portati, del resto, benissimo). La sfilata delle strumentiste è chiusa (alla grande) da Ariana Ghez, primo oboe della Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra.
Le cantanti sono tre. Praticamente obbligata la presenza di Anna Netrebko, la diva russa che ha conquistato il mondo come Violetta in minigonna rossa circondata da stuoli di coristi allupati. Anna bella, peraltro, è appena diventata mamma di un bebé (battezzato Tiago Arua, giusto per non farsi mancare nulla) con la collaborazione del basso-baritono uruguaiano Erwin Schrott, altro bellone (la velinizzazione dell’opera non riguarda solo le donne) con il quale forma una coppia dal glam quasi insostenibile. Giusto mettere fra le divine dieci anche il soprano Danielle De Niese, prova incarnata delle virtù del melting pot. Lei è americana nata in Australia da un cocktail genetico olandese, portoghese, inglese e dello Sri Lanka, e cantava a Glyndebourne la Cleopatra di Händel ballando sensuali stacchetti che Playboy paragona giustamente a quelli di Shakira (ma la colonna sonora di Danielle è molto migliore). Invece non si capisce chi sia Sarah Coburn, soprano americano di cui i redattori vantano il «southern charm» e la «blue-eyed beauty», ma che finora non abbiamo mai sentito nominare e men che meno cantare. E poi qui si dimenticano l’occhio cerulo e i capei d’oro del mezzosoprano lettone Elina Garanca, le gambe chilometriche della collega ceca Magdalena Kozena e la bellezza mediterranea della nostra Anna Caterina Antonacci.
Quanto ai risultati del sondaggio (tuttora aperto su www.playboy.com/worldofplayboy/features/classical-babes/index.html) alle 17 di ieri conduceva d’un soffio la Frautschi sulla Fischer (rispettivamente 21 e 19%) poi, staccate, Netrebko, Jansen, De Niese, Hahn, Josefowicz, Coburn, Mutter e Ghez. Macché solite note..
GIDON KREMER , Braumüller : ..."Schauen wir uns doch um: Wie und wem applaudiert die Menge? An erster Stelle stehen heute oft die "Stars". Das sind jene, denen es gelungen ist, ihr Talent zu "beweisen", Wettbewerbe zu gewinnen und in die Riege derer aufzusteigen, die von Managern und Musikproduzenten zu den vielversprechendsten und zukunftsträchtigsten "Hoffnungen" gezählt werden. Der Großteil derer, die an diesem Prozess beteiligt sind (inklusive der Talente selbst), denkt weniger an die (klassische oder moderne) Musik als an die Anerkennung, im Sinne einer gewissen "Berühmtheit", die für den Umsatz notwendig ist. Die Konzentration auf die "Quantität" (der verkauften Eintrittskarten, CDs und Tourneen) ist ein gnadenloser Prozess. Es überlebt der, dessen Lächeln am überzeugendsten wirkt. Er wird in der Folge auch das Objekt von Nachahmung und Vergötterung. Der Name des Pianisten Lang Lang (sein Pendant in Russland wäre wahrscheinlich Denis Mazujew) drängt sich hierbei förmlich auf. Die jugendliche Dynamik mulipliziert mit dem Talent, Wunderdinge auf der Klaviatur vollbringen zu können, ist das große Los. Wer kümmert sich in so einem Fall schon darum, WAS gespielt wird? Die Hauptsache ist, WER spielt! Die vom Erfolg beflügelten Talente beginnen auf der Suche nach "Sponsoren" mit den Reichen und Mächtigen zu flirten, mit Politikern, mit Oligarchen, mit ihresgleichen. ...Was das alles mit der Musik zu tun hat? Überhaupt NICHTS! Mehr noch, es breitet sich eine Art "Verschmutzung des Umfelds" und der Seele aus. Jene Obertöne, denen der Musiker verpflichtet (und bisweilen fähig) ist zu dienen, füllen nicht mehr den Raum. Übrig bleiben "leere Klänge". Und auch wenn nicht alle Verehrer des "Stars" diese Veränderung sofort bemerken, kommt sie doch wie ein Bumerang zurück und zerstört mit der Zeit die Begabung des Helden sowie seinen (einstigen) Ruhm.....Wer der Musik dient, wird ihr immer treu bleiben. Er wird sich keine anderen Götter erschaffen. Früher oder später wird auffallen, dass "der Kaiser ja nackt" ist! ..."
