I LOVE the way Alana plays!! She literally feels the music! She's so beautiful in her playing style. Absolutely beautiful musician!
Of all historical music, baroque is easily the most contemporaneous and the most relevant today. It lives. Thanks to the heart and dedication of baroque musicians today. Wonderful performance.
Thank you.
Splendide vif et talentueux merci

And to think we sank from such beauty to sentimental romantic nationalism...
Very true.
You guys are making this world a better place by sharing the best of what mankind has ever produced!
The violinist brings so much joy to this music...like she's having so much fun performing...
STRAORDINARI, BRAVISSIMI, INSUPERABILI, MAGICI! SIETE GRANDI!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Grazie
True confessions: This superb piece has helped to steward my way though the Covid pandemic. Thank you to the Voices of Music for your refreshing and important work, Alana Youssefian for your exquisite expertise, and Antonio Bertali for your genius in helping future generations to see light and hope.
I feel the same, So glad this has helped you too Kathleen!
In the great Blumenstock tradition, Alana Youssefian becomes and embodies the music. She and Skeen (another favorite) are brilliant in their conversation. Youssefian is one of my favorite performers to watch... and listen to. Simply brilliant. Cheers!
This piece is a jewel !
Alana has the most incredible, sweetest sounding violin I have ever heard in my life! Gorgeous instrument and gorgeous playing😍
And a gorgeous hairstyle as well.
Escuchar a Alana tocando su violín inspira y eleva ,con una sonrisa ,llena de vida y expresión,se divierte mucho tocando y eso también los transmite a quién la escucha,bravo!!.
I first watched this performance last year at the beginning of the pandemic and since then have watched a few other performances of this piece. This performance and these musicians have verve! Bounce! Joy! I still, a year later, get a boost from this!
A feast of unexpected modulations, challenging syncopation, and technical voracity!
I cannot explain it but this performance gives me solice in this covid time. I listen and watch it many times and find an inner peace which I do not understand.
same here !

Beautifully stated,thank you...
I have a deep love for Italian culture and this music moves me.
Belleza en estado puro, en su ejecución, en su interprete, en su acompañamiento, en su entorno.
Practical example of why Baroque music is supreme to all other styles.
Everything that Voices of Music records brings a smile because of their refreshing verve and living virtuosity.
Completely agree
Beautiful sound. Not to take anything away from the musicians but the audio management and the recording are phenomenal.
Just look at the happiness on their faces...while listening
I can't see how anyone could perform it better. It's a lovely piece of music, and these guys take it to perfection.
Thanks so much! It was great fun to work with Alana on this project.
Alana é sem dúvida nenhuma, uma violinista com múltiplas qualidades... Best Wishes from Mairiporã, in Brazil..!
5:33 musica y virtuosismo al mismo tiempo. Una belleza. Gran interpretación muy bella
I love baroque music!
Ditto!
This group never fails to give a masterful performance. BRAVO !!! 👍👍
Thanks so much!
You're most welcome -- and my thanks to your entre ensemble and guest artists for such beautiful music and authentic interpretations.
Sinceramente non capisco i cretini che hanno trovato il tempo per premere il pulsante 'NON mi piace'...
Una musica bellissima, un compositore praticamente sconosciuto, anche nella sua terra d'origine (il nostro amato Veneto), quando Venezia era la capitale culturale del mondo,
una esecuzione fantastica, sorprendente,
strumenti originali del 1600 e 1700,
musicisti di bravura eccelsa,
ripresa video in 4K al top della tecnica e della regia,
registrazione audio di valore assoluto, al massimo livello che si possa desiderare attualmente,
il tutto gratuitamente e senza alcuna pubblicità.
Ai Voices of Music dico solo un grazie commosso per avermi permesso di emozionarmi con le loro fantastiche esecuzioni, in altro modo non avrei potuto ascoltare queste musiche.
Grazie anche a CZcams per aver fatto tutto questo e per il premio alla Creatività dato ai Voices of Music, se lo meritano tutto.
Grazie.
Davvero, concordo perfettamente! Troppo bravi i “Voices of music”!
voyons !!! Bertali n'est pas inconnu pas plus qu'un Gabrieli . Mais la , chapeau pour l'interpretation
Non solo! La mia rabbia di tutto il nostro Barocco italiano non coltivato e interpretato da quasi NESSUNO! Noi italiani non sappiamo o non vogliamo favorire il nostro patrimonio culturale! A quei pochi che ci provano solo difficoltà e bastoni tra le ruote!! Questa interpretazione ma anche altre, di questo ensamble mi emoziona spesso!!!! Grazie Voices on Music!!!
@Luke Schneider Grazie Luke!!
I don't even have to finish listening to this to tell you how wonderful I think this is! The composition is fantastic, the performance is pristine! Wow!!
The baroque rock band 😎
This easily is one the most energetic, famous and utilized "riffs" of all times, albeit the more technically correct term is "ostinato" or "groundbass".
These guys have some real synergy
Trail blazer .du hast recht .
I think you mean... the ba-ROCK band ;)
Since I was very young, I was always interested in early music played in original instruments and after so many decades we are so lucky to experience the quality of virtuosity, artistry and musicianship of these gifted and dedicated musicians. The passion for the music takes it away from the theory or academic musicology to a vibrant, very human tour de force. Without the complete dedication and passion of all of you, these past cultural jewels would be complete unknown to us and give voice to those incredible composers of so long ago. Thanks for showering us with such musical gifts!
Absolutely brilliant performance! Passion, perfection, zeal, you're putting your hearts into music and it's heard. Keep doing great job! (And Bertali was a great master of course.)
Ho notato con molto piacere che non fate scivolare in fondo i commenti scritti in lingue diverse dall'inglese, grazie per questa non comune sensibilità. Ciaccone e passacaglie mi ipnotizzano e la vostra esecuzione è speciale!
What a fabulous performance of a fabulous piece of music. This is now the standard.
I'm back for the sound of optimism. Thank you Alana.
Stunning piece of a genius played with tremendously great virtuosity and brilliance in a perfect acoustics.
Thank you, Viola Bear.
There is a lot of music I have come to love over the years; THIS one I have come to adore. The greatest vision in my life was of this angel in white gliding slowly down the aisle towards me to take my hand in marriage... to the beginnings strains of Antonio Bettali`s "Ciaconna". It was nuptial poetry. Your version is absolutely beautiful and I cherish your particular arrangement of it and the musicianship involved. This is the type of piece which allows some interpretive freedom and it brims with life in this performance....and, yes, brings a tear to my eye with its beauty. I also like the simple joy emanating from Ms. Youssefian as if to say, "This is the greatest experience in the world to be here at this moment playing this captivating music with such fine musicians!"
Voices of Music keeping alive the Spirit of Music, thanks you for your efforts and passion.
Our pleasure!
Thank you for this glorious music and brilliant musicianship. Visually and sonically stunning!
You are very welcome.

You have my vote for this proposai.Two violin and musical geniuses together!
Yes! Yes! Hadn’t thought of that. Cynthia and Alana would be so fun to watch and listen to. Can you make it happen VOM?
Alana, discovered today, I think I will often look for her interpretations ..
Alana seems to be utterly at one with her instrument and music. So soothing to listen to, despite the hundreds of notes per minute!
Agree!
Seems? Seems? Emphatically Is!
Hermosa Alana muy hermosa
The joy you look you are experiencing is very infectious. I feel happier already. Beautiful music.
This puts me in such a happy mood!
I'm so obsessed with all of Alana's interpretations!
:)
La famosa 'Ciaccona' di Bertali si presta a diverse interpretazioni strumentali: ottima questa della violinista Alana Youssefian, che elabora numerose variazioni virtuosistiche sullo strumento che padroneggia con fantasia ed eleganza; notevole anche quella del complesso 'L' Arpeggiata' (della tiorbista svizzera Christina Pluhar) che recupera l'antico cornetto.
Really amazing to hear you Alana, wonderful with your musicians around. Cordially greetings. Klaus
Antonio Bertali fue un compositor y violinista italiano de la época barroca nacido en marzo de 1605 y fallecido el 17 de abril de 1669. Su Ciaconna en do mayor para violín y bajo continuo es hermosísima. Brillante violinista Alana Youssefian . Voices of Music hacen que ame el Barroco cada día más . Gracias !!
A mí me ocurre exactamente lo mismo
Pre scuole di Schmeltzer and Biber
LP circa 1970 "Hochschule Der Sud Deutchen Violin"
Simply mind-blowing- a display of technical skill and emotion combined
Love the music performed from Baroque Violin, sounds antique but pleasant, and memorable.
Good God.Such wonderful music,played in a beautiful setting by a uniquely beautiful and talented woman ,with excellent accompaniment,leaves an old man like me in reverent ,and well deserved silence. Thank you.
You are very welcome.
What an absolute joy to the ears and soul...a balm to my virus stricken body,
Pure delight! Thanks for the post!
Bravissima Alana. Le sue interpretazioni sono eccellenti. Grazie.
A delight to hear and see.Thank you VOM for all the great music and performances.
Wow, Alana! So inspiring and technically speaking it is a real top performance!
Voices of Music, you are a top ensemble! I love to listen to you! If you need an extra violin/viola player, always happy to join you!
Splendid performance. Absolutely splendid.
Reminds me of Cazzati's Ciaccona...beautiful and spirited.
This is one of my favorite compositions ever! And seeing more and more videos of this being posted over the past ten years gives it the justice to Bertali who composed it! Thank you!
Ce-mi place Muzica de Artă cântată la Vioară📟🎵🤗❤👍
So much passion, love it
Esta noche he descubierto la belleza sonora y la brillantez interpretativa de Alana 👏👏😀💝🎻 ¡Ya soy fan!
Che bellissima musica barocca da un autore sconosciuto interpretazione da lode...bravissima la violinista 🎇🎇🎇🎆🎆
Bertali è un autore minore ma non sconosciuto: la sua 'Ciaccona' è famosa quanto basta e diverse sono le interpretazioni recenti.
This beautiful music is from heaven ✨
I'm listening in Korea.I pay tribute to the passionate performers. Thank you for sharing the voice of music channel.
You are very welcome!
I wonder if these wonderful musicians have any idea what effect their performance has on their listeners!
oh yes they do of course but not between their playing but after...sure !
some actually dont. so always go and tell them :)
Oh what a master class that was!!!!!

Another feel good hit from the (16)60s - superbly rendered, as usual!
Thank you. What a joy to listen to and watch.
IMMENSAAAAAAA!!🥰
Alana sounds so amazing. I love the Baroque bow as well it looks like a cross between a bow and an arrow. It's like if a bow and an arrow had a kid called 'Pointy McBowface'
Feel this wonderful music repairing your very soul.
