    When I was a little boy - around 8 or 9 years old, I listened to my violin teacher playing this piece and thought to myself: “ I will not die until I could learn how to play this piece”...thank god I did...life is beautiful...

      Yes, when I was 12 starting to learn how to play violin, my teacher show thais to me in the first class, I thought to myself I would definitely master this piece. Sadly when I was 14, I move to a new city with my parents and I lost chance to learn violin. Although I joined an orchestra team in university, but Thais is too hard for me to play. Until now, the most difficult piece I can play is the spring of Xinjiang.

      I had the same thought!! But my parents couldn't afford lessons. I just started to play a year ago at age 52. It's a hellish struggle but worth every ounce of pain. I recommend it to everybody middle age who has doubts trying it. Yes, It's so so so incredibly hard, but it really is fascinating... not at all what I thought. A much deeper experience

La musica sublime fa capire bene tutto questo , legga il testo dell’ opera di Massenet e può capire bene questo pezzo in cui Thais muore per il vero e unico Amore che e Gesù Cristo ✝️🙏❤️

    Maxime Vengerov once came to visit us in my old music school, in Montreal. He was so nice, humble, just a normal person who you'd never guess is such a brilliant musician that happens to play pieces like this one, magially, in front of an audience like this one. I absolutely love him.

    As a young man this was my favorite classical piece, it seemed to transport me up above the world. So I had my brother in law play it at my wedding. Now almost 50 years later this beautiful song remains a part of the most beautiful day and most beautiful person in my life, and reminds me what we have done and experienced together. A beautiful life.

  • @augustineglazov5673
    @augustineglazov5673 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1226

    This was the last piece I ever learned on the violin before my tendinitis got too severe to continue. Even now, 10 years later, I still get emotional when thinking about it. I lost one of the greatest things in my life at the time, while trying to accomplish one of the most beautiful things I had ever heard.
    But that being said, I think it was because of losing my ability to play, specifically this piece by Massenet, that I grew to love music so much more. It's almost as if the beauty of a piece was only truly visible once I physically experienced how unattainable it was and how impossible it was for me to imitate.
    This song is proof that music transcends every mode of communication and human action. Meditation juxtaposes love, suffering, pain, joy, sadness, and peace into one, comprehensible message.
    We are spoiled to have the opportunity to hear something like this.

    • @linda7452
      @linda7452 7 ปีที่แล้ว +49

      Oh, how I could relate to your beautifully composed sentiments regarding the strengthened intensity to love music so much more due to losing your ability to play, specifically something this beautiful. The arthritis that insidiously devoured my finger joints over the years, discouraging me each time I sat down at my beautifully restored Steinway waiting to be played brought me to the sad reality that I, personally, could no longer perform with the fluency and swiftness as I had been able to only a short ten years prior. I would even stay away from my instrument for months, almost grieving my loss, until just recently, after 5 decades of relentless practice and performance, I have accepted this. My love for music, has been intensified as never before, and in particular, listening to Massenet, knowing it, of course was written for violin, and having attempted playing it on piano (always falling short of the intense lyrical melody as on violin), I, too, and have a connection far greater than ever before with music's soulful capture of all our humanly emotions. I am enjoying like never before; it's also wonderful to have TH-cam at our beck and call so we may soothe and be grateful for the glorious sounds of music.

    I live in a small town . One day my mom told me to go to the big city that is 35km away from here to pick some papers for her, hour long bus drive. I used to go to highschool in that same city. That day I was passing by a elementary school of music and I literatelly froze.For that split moment , everything around me went silent as I was listening through the open window , that melting gold sound that just blew me away. I just stood under the open window and felt so liberated and free for those couple of seconds . I came home and spent hours looking for it until I found it . It was a bit different since it was only violin at the school but after listening to this piece I just knew it was this one . You never know what the day will bring.

      Sto ascoltando ora, per la prima volta, questo pezzo trovato per caso, ma niente succede per caso! Conoscevo il titolo, perché, la nonna di una mia amica, suonava il Violino🎻e tutte le sere le suonava questa dolce melodia, come fosse una Ninna Nanna. Penso, e credo fermamente, che La Musica🎶sia un Linguaggio Universale di Amore💗 e di Pace☮
      dà serenità al Cuore❤ e all'Anima🤍 feriti dalle brutture di questo Mondo🌍!
      C'è in corso una guerra, iniziata il 24 febbraio 2022 dalla Russia, chissà se e quando finirà!🥺
      E da tre anni circa, siamo stati colpiti da un Virus,
      in continua mutazione, siamo ancora "sotto la lente"🔎perché questa Pandemia, non è ancora finita.🥺😭😭
      Speriamo che finisca tutto presto! Nel frattempo, ascoltiamo questa musica, che entra fin nel profondo del nostro essere, fino a versare lacrime di gioia e commozione, per tanta bellezza! Il Violino 🎼🎻 sembra che pianga!😢
      È, da sempre il mio strumento preferito, avrei tanto voluto imparare a suonarlo, ma la vita ha deciso diversamente, questo rimarrà un mio sogno, per la prossima vita! Intanto ascolto
      con piacere i Grandi Maestri Musicisti e anche la musica del "passato", che porta con sé, ricordi felici e ricordi dolorosi...questa è la Vita 🤷🏻‍♀️

      To play music to the fullest of your capability and be rewarded in a beauty that is unearthly is to have seen the tiniest glimpse of what God is truly like.

    Whenever I feel broken and face the abyss of existance, this moment, this particular moment he created embraces me with loving arms and life feels less useless. At least we lived, we were here to listen to him playing the sound of the stars. And all our sadness, void, short moment of time fades into comfort. Like the tears dropping out of my eyes wide open.

      That's pure skill - because I can assure you there is a very exacting sense of tempo behind it. It's only when you can have that metronome playing in your mind that you can begin to let go and play with what musicians call rubato - where you slow down and speed up the tempo for musical effect.

    Jules Massenet plays this divine composition with such intense sensitivity, he is totally absorbed in both his instrument and the music. In other words, they are 'at one with the other'. Completely transporting. And most enjoyable.
