Actually, when you think about it, he has taken the mandolin precisely to preconceived notions of what it is: basically a plucked violin. Yes, that's a bit of an oversimplification (mandolin has double courses of strings, violin single), but they generally have the same tuning and same ensemble function.
The sound of Chris’s mandolin here seems to take on a cross between a harpsichord and lead violin. It add a bit of needed percussion. And Yo Yo is playing that cello up so high it’s nearly sounding like a viola, and Meyer’s bass comes up to cello territory. Gorgeous.
Bach is the one composer I believe whose music transfers in its pure genius form to more different instruments in different combinations than any other composer. And we are so fortunate to have these three great virtuosos to make us be glad to be alive and listening. The album is perfect.
How could anybody in their right mind give this a thumbs down? It is masterful. There are but a handful of people on the planet who can play like this. And for Bach to conceive it in the first place is almost unthinkable.
Exquisite recording. The acoustics reproduced from the CD through a R-2R DAC, a tube amp with Gold Lion and Tungsram/RCA tubes, and Proac 1SC speakers are so natural and balanced. Soundstage and imaging are superb. It's wonderful that it's a soft recording, so the amp can gradually ratchet up the volume. Love it.
every once in a too-long while, people who've mastered their art come together & collaborate anew. The end result here, for me, is a joy beyond almost anything. What a fantastic recording. bought the CD because of this

What I enjoyed the most was the delicacy in which the intruments dialog, due to the natural and beautiful sound of the mandolin. This combination was so beautiful!

I first heard this trio together in Goat Rodeo and fell in love with their track Attaboy. Since then i find them when I can. Their music is always perfection. That they are each beautiful on the outside too is a delightful bonus. ;)

If Bach heard Chris Thile play the mandolin we'd have a set of mandolin suites.
pman5595 what a luck that both Mandolin and Violin have the exact same tuning 😅🙃
Highly probable
Indubitably
Probably the greatest compliment any instrumentalist can be given
totally
Brilliant! Fiendish picking on the mandolin by Chris Thile. It's always more enjoyable when the musicians look like they are having fun.
Thile has taken mandolin so far beyond any preconceived notions of what it is..a true genius.
And brought American mandolin back to it's roots.

You're both correct. In the US, before Thile the mandolin wasn't viewed this way. So a renaissance, then.
Mike Gervasi Thile is the man :)
Stunningly gorgeous. These are some of my favorite musicians on the planet.
I feel fortunate to be alive in a time I can hear something so wonderful
Every time I think Thile can't get better he proves me wrong. This is masterful.
Chris is miles ahead of the pack of all other mandolinists I have ever heard in 60 years of listening to and grooving on a dozen great players.
The sound of Chris’s mandolin here seems to take on a cross between a harpsichord and lead violin. It add a bit of needed percussion. And Yo Yo is playing that cello up so high it’s nearly sounding like a viola, and Meyer’s bass comes up to cello territory. Gorgeous.

I wondered the same thing!
Well- there are those who follow Bach’s strict order that his music is to be played only in a (Lutheran) church.
Joyful is a great feeling!
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here

The smiles around @3:07 are THE sign they absolutely love what they're doing. 🙂

I’m absolutely stunned by this trio. Who would have thought Chris would be playing Bach as well as he does. Brilliant. Remember when he was a boy?
This trio of suberb musicians playing Bach is beyond words! Their Bach Trios album is my all time favorite recording.
Just made my day...this is so great!
The mastery of these there amazing gentlemen is exceeded only by the mastery of the composer...
The progression on the bass from 1:50 on for about four measures is just unbelievable. Bach was a genius.
i like when he calls it back later in the piece, only with the bass on 2 and 4 as opposed to 1 and 3 ruclips.net/video/770rJqDwRXo/видео.htmlm40s
Descending 5ths, the bread and butter of Bach and Baroque. Always written elegantly and innovatively in each composition, nonetheless
What Chad said, descending 5ths, simple and perfect music theory at work. So beautiful
Cello Fire!!!
It's one of the most common progressions. Bach incorporates it in every piece basically several times. In this piece alone several timez
i've always loved edgar meyer's tone on the bass and how he plays with no vibrato. sounds awesome.

Wonderful!!!!!
Beautiful and most pleasant performance, many thanks for this joy.
Excelente, profundo, contrapuntístico y emocionante! Thanks
Thanks to JT for the heads-up, and this cut from the album. These three incredible talents elevate Bach from the beautiful to the sublime!
This visual imagery, "... his fingers fluidly danced across the strings..." finally makes sense to me.
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great musicians, great music.
This is just fantastic!!
What a way to start the day!. Thanks you 3 wonderful musos
and JT. for the ambience
YO-YO MA che musicista , che bravura. delizia per i sensi

Sublime...
Edgar Meyer is my life
Masterpiece

I always used to say that BAROCK is ROCK! thankssss for this great music and video...
Look at the pure joy expressed on their faces at 3:05 when they arrive back at theme in the G major home base. The beautiful magic of Bach.
Historically Informed Performance, so light and lovely. Thanks for this!
Beatiful

Thile in a suit, overcoat, and gloves, and rail-thin as he is, makes me think of Sherlock Holmes.
3 geniuses walk into a studio... magic occurs.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSS
Wow
well, how cool is that?!
If your toddler claps, waves or dances to this movement, you probably already started STEM ed.
Your right! Wondergull timing snd playing dr r
If Sebastian had heard these three maybe he'd have forgotten about his ruddy organ!
I think it was Mozart who did write a composition or two that did include Mandolin.
83 people couldn't play couldn't play this piece
Listen to em soft accent parts, NICE!
I have the same pick as Thile and I can't do this what gives?
49 people live their lives in G minor.
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here
Geniales....aunque estéis hartos de que os lo digan. Hacéis un mundo mejor.
do 2 or 3 like that.... or better yet 5 or 10 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope he'll bust out with some sweet mandolin concerti. Vivaldi?
Edgar lost some weight.
Anyone else thinks this sounds better (yes, uve read correctly, i didnt mean different but BETTER) on organ?
Amazing!
