Sublime. Outstanding, because Ms. Mullova played exactly what Bach wrote , in time and with such skill that all the notes are audible, with a beautiful light tone. Sounds simple, but as all of us who have ever tried to play this know, it is extremely difficult . The end result was so peaceful that the video shows members of the audience totally absorbed, drinking it in. Bravo indeed.
It's been 20 years since I've heard her Chaconne. Along with Gidon Kramer's Chaconne, I personally think it's one of the best chaconnes, and I'm so glad I found a new video today with the best sound quality. thank you so much!!!!
I've never heard better on a modern instrument - she adds to impeccable dynamic control, strict timekeeping and intelligent phrasing a welcomely light touch which almost approximates a Baroque violin while still clearly coming from a modern violin. Brava!
Lovely, honest rendition. The most stunning thing about this video is the complete lack of audience coughing, though. Probably the greatest miracle this church has ever seen.
Wunderschöne und tiefempfundene Aufführung dieses ewigen und perfekt komponierten Meisterwerks im veränderlichen Tempo mit seidigem doch gut phrasiertem Ton der technisch perfekten Solovioline und mit perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Die Resonanz ist auch ideal. Faszinierend vom Anfang bis zum Ende!
Classical Music's Profound Impact. 🎹✨ Whether it's the precision of a concerto or the emotive power of an opera, classical music provides a refuge for the soul, offering solace and inspiration.
She knows she did very well. After Ivry Gitlis, this is my favorite rendition - so natural and free of affectation. A minor mistake at 10:05 but, who cares?
@@roylin3490 much more natural and certainly less jerky than on the violin. When segovia played it back in the day, it legitimized the guitar as a serious instrument. That would not have happened if it were realized how great this piece sounds on guitar. Remember....in bachs day you played music with and on whatever was at your disposal. Having pontificated all that, I sure enjoyed this rendering.
@@billhatcher9303 No, the piece IS for solo violin. And personally i think it sounds way better on the violin cuz those chords are meant to be played on a violin. I know you gitarists need more love but this is not the piece.
@@roylin3490 oh really? Solo violin Bwv 1001 has a fugue in it. Your assumption is that ALL of the solo violin pieces are for violin and sound best on such. Then why did Bach himself take the fugue from 1001 and arrange it for organ? And what about the sinfonia from cantata 29? It is also a violin solo piece. There are other instances where Bach transcribed his own music to be played by other instruments in different settings. That’s one of the reasons bachs music is so universal. You can play it on any instrument and it is never diminished.
I wish more emotions. Mendelson remarked that this piece nobody can technically master and the interpretation as well. There is deep sadness, silent hope and gratefulness to our Divine. So Milstein, Heifetz and Perlman tried their best.
I think there is much emotion in it. And for me it is best. Victorias playing is very disziplinned. She consequently keeps a breathing metrum. Emotion is there but it is sublime. I think it is a Bach appropiate interpretation. How would master Bach judge?
You'd think they might give her a more visually appealing place to play in. I don't mean the church; I mean why should she be playing surrounded by all that left over detritus from the concert. Seems kind rude. Who knows why one interpretation appeals to a person more than another? I heard Hilary Hahn play this live some years back and was utterly transfixed. Her recording remains to me the pinnacle. She has a real affinity for Bach.
It may seem like sacrilege to say this, but I much prefer to hear (and play) the Chaccone in Busoni’s great piano transcription than on the violin…but most recordings mike the violin up too close, giving this piece that awful “scratchy” sound found on so many badly engineered violin recordings. This beautiful recording and performance is an exception to that.
Bravo! I love her rendition. I think Ms. Mullova understands the Ciaccona and plays in a natural and relaxed manner, nothing forced.
i think so
On a single staff, for a small instrument, the man writes a whole world of the deepest thoughts and the most powerful feelings...
You should have provided the attribution of that quote. It comes from a letter by Johannes Brahms to Clara Schumann.
It is a chaconne oozing with personality. I was mesmerized by its light but rich tune.
Sublime -her playing is smooth as honey not a a squeak or a squawk. Fantastic production, audio sound and videography .
We're glad you liked it. Thanks for watching and listening!😊
I heard a squawk!

you can listen to many great renditions of this absolute masterpiece. mullova's one is the best.

What a beautiful music!
She always play Bach perfectly!
The passage at 10:00 is so sublime, and her interpretation is so pure. The first time I heard it, I cried, and I still get goosebumps today.
Es la violinista mas afinada que he escuchado en toda mi vida.
Замечательное исполнение произведения Гениального композитора да еще в таком прекрасном Соборе.Браво!!!

Mullova 演奏巴哈夏康舞曲抑楊頓挫益增旋律之美，是最好的。

Хм... Моя мама была учителем истории в средней школе, в которой училась Вика. Хорошо помнила её.
Bach channels the singing of Cherubim.
🇮🇹❤️🌹👏👍

Sounds choppy and disconnected but I do recognize the melody but it really needs smoothing out it’s too rough
יוצאת דופן экстраординарный
