Keeping baroque alive by talented musicians like Rachel Podger, really admire her works
You're the increíble! So so magic and beautiful! Thanks!!!
The juxtaposition of the chaconne, with its timeless 'heartbeat' and the swiftly moving traffic in the background is a beautifully arresting image.
It's not the arrow, the bow hit my heart.
Ah, the simplicity of an artist in her element, with juxtaposition of a rushing train and traffic outside. Inside, she is focused, immersed in the music, channeling something pure, refined, and divine.
Bliss. This is the way Baroque string instruments should be played. Flat but full of emotional evocations. So lovely.....
Flat? Baroque timbre has the most dynamic tones
@@daniel3231995 maybe by flat they are referring to how honest it sounds. There is no wide vibrato and there is no rubato in random places, only notes and the pulse which is accentuated with articulation and rubato which serves the music and the accents. The scale passages are just what they're supposed to be: scales, they're not romantic melodies meant to be played with all the features I mentioned (wide vibrato, oftentimes random rubato, etc.) which are absent in this performance. What you hear here is a plain honesty that I only experience in flamenco, which this music is very reminiscent of due to the use of the Andalusian cadence.
pro trick : you can watch series on Flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies recently.
@Aron Nathan Definitely, have been watching on flixzone} for years myself :D
Oh my, Rachel Podger is an angel from heaven... : D Lots of love~
Baroque and emotional performance and musician.
Great Rachel Podger.
I first heard Rachel Podger play in the recording of the Bach Double Concerto with Andrew Manze. He was the big name then but I was struck by the comparative warmth and flexibility of her sound. Not something you always associated with historically informed performance in those days - but I am quite sure a quality of the violin when well played throughout its history. She demonstrates this beautifully in the way she draws on such practices to shed new light on the repertoire she plays and, hopefully, to win new audiences.
After admiring her recordings for 15 or so years it's nice to finally see her play.
Such perfect intonation!
This is one of my fav pieces and so far the best performance I've ever heard! So grateful this was recorded!!!!
Biber ranks among the greatest composers for the violin. How beautiful and enchanting!
no lol
@@phosphor3617 no lol🤓🤓🤓
I just can't wrap my head around onto how beautiful this piece is. All I can do is shed tears. Thank you Biber.
Thanks, TwoSet.
Another TwoSet fan?
Twoset fans everywhere
Same lol I would’ve never discovered this piece were it not for twoset
@Jamie S Ahaha! Same. And actually I'm studying this piece (which, in some passagges, is a bit difficult >_
Good luck, this piece is difficult but beautiful.
I listen to the record but never saw this live before. This is absolutely brilliant. It is so difficult sometimes to make sense of this Biber piece, but here everything falls into place, and it sounds like the doors of heaven finally opened. Rachel Podger is fabulous.
Rachel Podger is one of my favourite Baroque violinists. She emphasises clarity of sound, polyphony, and emotion. Very good work.
7:15 best of this pieces
Love her sound, broad and dynamic.
Beautiful performance, with each variation with its very distinctive personality, so well rendered. Very nicely filmed also, where it is interesting to see the contrast between our century with speed trains in the background, and with this music from another one!
Biber is smiling!
It's magic!
An excellent performance of a very beautiful musical poem.
She is a angel
Wonderful sounds and masterful clarity throughout. Definitely a Baroque example superb!
This piece convinced me: I am now a Beliber!
jamorains Me too but please cut out making that totally inappropriate pun. That young jerk said that in Het Anne Frank Huis (Ann Frank House) in Amsterdam.
Jajajajajajaja jajajajajajaja
@@georgeberger8974 what pun?
@@georgeberger8974 This video was recorded at Bimhuis Amsterdam! It has nothing to do with Anne Frank.
@@mijoree I know, you misunderstood me. I lived near Bimhuis for years. Now Justin Bieber was once at Het Anne Frank Huis. When he left he made that remark.
Juste superbe. Parmi les plus belles versions que j'ai pu entendre.
Écoutez aussi Manze ou Bismuth. Vous n'entendrez pas les mêmes choses mais vous serez tout autant transporté.
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Amazing interpretation!
악기소리가 정말아름답습니다.
훌륭한연주~~♡
I totally agree
그러게요! 너무 잘하시네요.
sublime...
wonderful !
I love baroque music because you can change it into your style. Or you can decorate it like a fabulous castle or just play it as a stone statue.
But I love every style because it is music.
thank you for posting! it's lovely!
I love her playing. Amazing violinist
Beautifull.
I love the low A
Beautifull violin. Fits great to Biber.
Lovely
Speechless! Stunning performance.
Thank you for posting!
Very fluidly flat, nothing over the top, all the right emotions in place.
Morceau mythique pour le violon baroque unique danse infinie vers l ultime Dieu superbe merci
Flawless.
Just been playing this whilst making cheese on toast . . .hope you don't mind . . .fantastic soundrack to lunch!

Formidable!
好好听👍
Музыка интересно сочетается с видом за окном.Большое лучше выделяется на фоне суеты
Wow
nicely
💐🎻✨
🙏🏽🌹🙏🏻
👏👏👏👏👏👏
This is incredibly beautiful playing but I find the non-stop swirling and zooming movement of the camera work make it hard to watch
Is the Baroque violin tuned a whole tone lower than the modern violin?
usually @415. depends on orchestra, etc.
It depends. A compromise often made for Italian music is a=415, a semi tone low, also German and others but not French, at least sometimes. Late 17th & early 18th century French is lower, compromise at 392, based on surviving wind instruments. But wind instruments survive at all sorts of pitches between 390 or so and even 440. Lots of winds were around 408/410(early 1700s) and later 405/435 (late 1700s). But there was no standard as there more or less is now.
French flute music sounds so nice really low.
Just about a half tone lower. So a baroque A would correspond to an A flat.
Fred Chang No half.
Baroque master
This made me want to get a violin but my parents are too cheap to afford $30 only when it comes to me
You ever grab your violin? Just save lunch money for a week.
Wish I knew what string brand she uses. Nobody ever bothers to ask. Like it makes no difference.
carolineleiden the G is a Pirastro Eudoxa and I’m guessing the others are Folia or Barocco
Is there a scordatura ?
Most of the other pieces in this set use some of scordatura, in one case requiring the violinist to switch the positions of the D and A strings in order to retune to Biber's designated pitches. This piece however uses the normal GDAE tuning for the violin.
Where can I find the sheet music?
:')
can i get the sheet music plz :V
Sure. Yes. Hope you've found it by now. if not: IMSLP.
@@commontater8630I have it now thx!!!
Green sleeves and Pachabel Canon mixed together.
why don't she do vibrato
because this is baroque music and also because there is no need to, it is completely perfect as is
She does, listen 2’05”. It’s an ornament in baroque playing.
Vibrato disturbs the vibration of the intonation.
Gimme that ole time scorduta, gimme that ole time scorduta, gimme that ole time scorduta, it’s good enough for me. It was good enough for Biber, it was good enough for Biber, it was good enough for Biber, and it’s good enough for me!
Yeah Biber used Scordatura a lot, but not in this piece.
The majority rules! That is democracy! For the critical among you, however, it should be noted that Biber never played his violin like this. His instrument and his bow were completely different from Rachel's. The instrument was smaller, the tuning higher, the neck and the bow shorter, the G-string not wound ... etc.
This is too disjunct and erratic, which happens when one doesn't know what to say with the music. For me Holloway is the gold standard.
The trains and the traffic is fine. We could do without the two bozos in the background.
thank you for posting! it's lovely!
