It's a recording from Verbier festival This piece is accompanied by Verbier Birthday Festival Orchestra. I do believe that some of the following names sound familiar: Renaud Capuçon, Sarah Chang, Ilya Gringolts, Gidon Kremer, Vadim Repin, Dmitri Sitkovetsky, Christian Tetzlaff, Nikolaj Znaider, Yuri Bashmet, Nobuko Imai, Mischa Maisky, Boris Pergamenschikow, Patrick de Los Santos.
So that is what musicians do when they want to have a "bit of fun together"! Produce a world class performance on world class instruments. How I wish I had been there.
non ho parole per descrivere questa musica. la posso ascoltare 1000 volte ma ogni volte il mio animo si illumina di una luce interiore. Scopro ogni volta colori e sfumature differenti.
I both listen to and watch (yes!) this video every couple months. So many of the world's most talented musicians creating a true magic. There is nothing like watching a bunch of immensely talented people doing something they love.
Martha Argerich, Evgeny Kissin, James Levine, Mikhail Pletnev, Renaud Capuçon, Sarah Chang, Ilya Gringolts, Gidon Kremer, Vadim Repin, Dmitri Sitkovetsky, Christian Tetzlaff, Nikolaj Znaider, Yuri Bashmet, Nobuko Imai, Mischa Maisky, Boris Pergamenschikow, Patrick de Los Santos .... what else? B)

I think I've discovered this piece a week ago now, and I listened this piece at least 30 times after this discovery. Due to the splendid performance I must listen to this piece at least once a day. Especially the second part, Largo, is beautiful. Thanks Argerich, Kissin, Levine, Pletnev and of course the string orchestra!
Don't you mean 6:15 ..? - but agreed; that part of this particular performance is practically half-speed compared to most all other renditions, helping to make it sound so very serene.
@@dragontoothdw I mean, I love the piece at 6:15 too, but I was referring to that melodic figure of a 7th chord at 7:15, it sounds quite melancholic.
Precisely! An embarrassment de riches! for four full sized grand pianos I should have preferred their lids to be shut, so as not to eclipse the continuo/ripieno.
Thank you, TH-cam and meneltar! I feel privileged to be able to hear this amazing music performed by the finest musicians of our time.... The slow movement at 7 min is the essence of Bach.....
The four soloists are clearly outstanding, but musicians in the orchestra are not quite at a loss either! I believe I saw Sarah Chang playing second violin! They all look like they are having such good time. Thank you for posting.
Greatest hommage of J>S Bach to Antonio Vivaldi transcribing his Concerto for four violins (from L' Estro Harmonico) to four Harpsichords, and here with this constellation of stars, mainly Argerich, Pletnev etc.
These are people whose professional recordings I have all enjoyed. I look at each one of them and I think about their interpretations of my favourite pieces and how they have collaborated with the others at some point in their career. Now they're all playing the same piece together on the same stage!!! So trippy i can't believe this happened.
J S BACH m'a toujours laissée espérer que Dieu existait. Ce concerto me le confirme. L'interprétation est la meilleure que j'aie jamais entendue. Une merveille.
Entrain d'écouter cette merveille et au beau milieu, à 8 minutes, fait irruption une voix qui gueule en italien les qualités d'une bagnole! Les barbares de notre époque !
Found this by accident while looking for the concert for 2 pianos that I'm working on with my teacher. Cannot stop watching! My teacher has sent this video to countless friends!
unbelievably beautiful and sublime..... so wonderful to see James Levine playing piano! and all these top string players, masters in their own right, participating in the orchestra. WOW. just, WOW.
OMG the pianissimo (I mean the dynamics, it's not a joke about 4 pianos on stage lol) parts are so perfectly done. Something that truly can only be achieved when all 4 pianists are good and know what they're doing.
Quando due geni si incontrano possono nascere solo capolavori di Altissimo opera di Vivaldi arrangiata magistralmente dal sommo Bach solisti straordinari in perfetta sintonia un vero gioiello da ascoltare
bah!! Alicia de la Rocha fue de lejos superior a la arjerich,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, menos estudio y más talento además de una capacidad interpretativa superior. la arjerich aunque tiene inmenso talento esta lejos de ser la mejor pianista..................tiene sobre ella a verdaderos monstruos como Richter, Hoffmann, Von Saeur, el mismo Arrau............
elkin gomez Si vas a menospreciar a Martha, aprende a escribir su nombre primero. No por nada, el mundo habla y conoce a Martha Argerich, es insuperable.
elkin gomez ufff Argerich es definitivamente una de las pianistas más importantes de la historia. Decir que es la mejor o decir "el mejor" de cualquiera es una estupidez. No creo que exista "el mejor" en ninguna disciplina. Cuando llegas a un cierto nivel simplemente "eres". Siendo chileno admito que Argerich es mucho mejor que Arrau en muchas cosas. Richter, es un tema aparte.
I think of Bach and am now with him in concert as we both weep with emotion to hear this transcendent performance of one of his most transformational works lo these many centuries later.
I doubt this can be considered one of his most transformational works since Vivaldi was the original composer of this concerto for 4 violins. Beautifully transcribed by Bach yes, but composed by Vivaldi
And not so important to be happy forever. Above all, be happy now.The happiness has been lasted for 12 minutes 45 seconds.The trick is- you can play, watch, listen it again and again.And your condition of absolute happiness will stay with you..
love this video, especially to see wordless conversations between virtuosos, like their faces, eye contacts or smiles, etc. such points really moves my heart, as well as their sounds. I don't play any musical instruments, so I wish if I could play like them.
Not only the four pianists but also the violinists and cellists are super star!
.. And best of all , the Music is SUPER SUPER SUPER , it's Vivaldi 580 transcribed by Bach 😮😮😮
@@mariapiazza-od8ib 2:01 & 8:31 ... mellifluous...
This really feels like a "play date" between friends.
Mourir avec Bach, le plus grand privilège que Dieu peut nous offrir !
Le jour de ma sépulture, pas de paroles hagiographiques et de paroles edifiantes mais une heure de Bach et un chant breton...

8:34 ... wonderful :D
Indeed... fun that most of us poor mortals can only dream of.
My favorite part was Martha's trill. :D And how they all listen so carefully and look at each other. Good example for other musicians.
What a stary night in the world of music.
It was originally Violin music by Vivaldi, then Bach transcribed it to harpsichord in tribute.
Bach can't be wrong about his taste in music
How do you get this much talent on stage at one time? Bach must have pretty powerful connections wherever he is.
every musician a renowned interpreter a star studded cast.
so many great musicians - my head's about to explode
ME2!!!
Es ver jugar a Pelé, Maradona, Messi, Garrincha, Cruyff, y tantos otros juntos. Tenemos la fortuna de disfrutar ese arte.
Bach es el mejor músico de la historia de la música y lo puso difícil. Aquí está el talento de sus INTÉRPRETES.

Wow! All Star cast playing BACH... speechless... and the string players seem to be enjoying themselves too! Bravo!
It is great, but it is not Bach, it is Vivaldi
This is a wet dream. Argerich, Kissin, Levine and Pletnev together. Wow!! Thank you.
What a pleasure to listen to, thank you to all concerned….magnificent.👏👏👏👏
If aliens stop once on earth and ask what our civilization is like I would show them this concerto
Hahahahahahahaha dude
Bach was from some region of Andromeda.
That would be showing off
Nah, show them BWV1064
Wonderful answer.

Absolutely lovely! Words cannot really express just how much I enjoy this performance.
You are right.Speachless
Слава Богу, что есть Бах, и что есть такие исполнители, которые передают нам то, что Бах услышал... Слава Богу!
Особенно если учесть, что это Вивальди в переложении Баха.

That is absolutely insane. Imai and Bashmet as your viola section :o
The Japanese violist's name is “Nobuko”.
What a team! Incredible
Great. That's the way it has to be played. Make Bach sing. The absolute polyphony singing. Like a wave. A powerful wave. Pure happiness!
Argerich plays so effortlessly.... fingers made to play divine music..
Это что-то невероятное! Слушать вместе таких великолепных исполнителей! Это необыкновенный подарок!
Ассоциации с оркестром на балу у Воланда. Про солистов вообще молчу, но в каком еще оркестре увидишь Кремера, Башмета и Майского.
Dream team!
thank you!
What a feast this is ! Absolutely amazing musicians - all of them

"DREAM TEAM" - 12 MINUTES (LAST QUARTER...) WITH BACH AS A CENTER... PURE TRIUMPH
Bach and Vivaldi! Even more the dream team! Italy and Germany music together. 🥳
This NEVER fails to make me smile in appreciation for music the talented people who interpret it and ... life at large. :)
How Glorious!!
This is more than allowed!!!!!!!
Some people really do need to take a chill pill when it comes to bach & modern piano!
Bach himself would approve.
Esecuzione Divina,Martha Algerich...the Queen!!!!!👸🏻
Bravo!!!!!Enchanté!!!!
Just awesome........
7:15 this part always makes me cry, its so powerful

Music's dream team.
One of the very rare occasions that the term "pure genius" is an understatement concerning this magical piece from Bach.
It was originally violin music by Vivaldi, then Bach transcribed it to harpsichord in tribute. YAY!!!
Did the planets line up that day? What a dream ensemble! Incredible gathering of some of the greatest musicians.
Precisely! An embarrassment de riches! for four full sized grand pianos I should have preferred their lids to be shut, so as not to eclipse the continuo/ripieno.
with an incredible and magic result too :P)
メンバーも演奏も凄すぎます。泣きそう😢😍😍😍🎶🎶🎶❤️
Pure perfection, music and performance!!
Thank you, TH-cam and meneltar! I feel privileged to be able to hear this amazing music performed by the finest musicians of our time.... The slow movement at 7 min is the essence of Bach.....
Really? Originally this was Concerto n. 10 from L'estro armonico by Vivaldi :-)
But no thanks for the stupid publicity in the middle of the splendid slow movement !
a treasure for the history

...sublime...
four great pianists together is a miracle
beautiful people...sigh
Sarah Chang , the happiest violinist !
legends in one place

Merci Madame, merci Messieurs. Merci les artistes de l' orchestre.
Vous m' avez permis de vivre un rève. C'est à ne pas oublier......
Marvelous.
it is awesome! I could also see Gidon Kremer & Mischa Maisky
This music is sublime, and this performance in moving, deeply moving... world class

If anyone wondering, the original violin concerto is indexed as RV 580
