  • The “Prélude” by Le Sieur de Machy that opens this section is composed in an older style, which is still indebted to theorbo technique. This contrasts with Marais’s pieces, which are in a modern style. The elements characterizing these pieces include expressiveness and technical virtuosity, timbral exploration and the predominance of the melody, demonstrating that the viola da gamba is the instrument that best imitates the human voice.

    For those who don't know Spanish, at about 17:00, he dedicates the "Variaciones sobre una cancion de Cuna bretona" to the memory of his late wife, Montserrat Figueras, who died in 2011. They had been married since 1968, and she can be seen in many of their earlier works.

    I simultaneously fell in love with the sound of viola da gamba and the artistry of Jordi Savall after seeing the film“Tous les Matins du Monde” (All the Mornings in the World”). It was a life changing experience. I’m a professional cellist who has been inspired by Mr. Savall to learn how to play the gamba.. He makes it looks so easy, but while comparing cellos to gambas is not quite like apples to oranges, there are enough differences to keep someone “crossing over” on their toes-especially with the bow. I’ve been privileged to meet Mr. Savall, and he is the most humble, genial person you could ever meet.

      I too had the same experience when I saw "Tous les Matins du Monde" !! I was just knocked out by the viola da gamba (plus I love a good period piece film), and I discovered Jordi Savall at that time. Kudos to you for learning to play the gamba! I'm not a musician, just a music lover. So nice that there a number of YTube vids of Jordi Savall et. when playing beautiful early music. Lovely to know that Savall is such a nice person.

    When Maestro Savall plays alone only then it became painfully obvious - his exemplary mastery of an instrument and deepest affection for the music. Passion and poetry, emotion and musicality - all came alive at once in his performance. He is a singularly talented musician and just as an extraordinary person. His renditions of every piece he choose to play are so affecting that somehow one feels that it is exactly what one wants to hear. Though each piece is of a virtuoso grade, yet each one feels so organic and natural, refined and elegantly an emotional quicksilver. Pure magic... Thank you, Maestro.

    Have loved the viola de gamba since I saw the wonderful film "Tous Les Matins du Monde" many years ago. Jordi produced the music and of course played the gamba on this most magical of films. The music most associated with the Gamba, especially by the composers Marin Marais and Monsieur de Saint Colombe is so ethereal and speaks to something so deep within us that it seems to encompass the world of human emotions like no other music.

    I’ve been a casual fan of baroque music listener since the 90’s. This year for Lent I gave up all music. I came out the other end with no appetite for modern music and have been delving deeper into baroque. Jordi Savall comes up everywhere.

    Peter Adams invoque "une impression d'improvisation" comme une critique. A mon sens et bien que ces oeuvres soient écrites, ce qui les caractérisent c'est le côté libre exploitant l'instrument dans toutes ses possibilités en donnant effectivement comme une sensation d'improvisation excluant toute raideur. C'est là que l'on fait la différence entre un bon instrumentiste et un interprète hors pair comme Jordi Savall.
