- LIVE & UNEDITED. Camerata Pacifica's String Trio of Paul Huang, Richard Yongjae O'Neill & Ani Aznavoorian perform Dmitry Sitkovetsky's arrangement of J.S. Bach's Goldberg Variations, BWV 988. Recorded September 16, 2016, Music Academy of the West, Santa Barbara.
www.cameratapac.... Camerata Pacifica is a chamber music ensemble based in Santa Barbara that performs a monthly series of concerts in Santa Barbara, Ventura, San Marino, and Zipper Hall in Downtown Los Angeles. Founded by Adrian Spence in 1990, the group is composed of the finest performers of chamber music from around the world. The ensemble is distinctive for artistic excellence, an innovative approach to classical music and a repertoire that ranges from baroque to brand new, from familiar masterworks to works that have yet to become favorites.
Absolutely divine music. I am tempted to declare this arrangement even more beautiful than the original piano version.
Victorlabsky, well. I never searched for string versions of this work. I recently stumbled on it by chance. And...🎉what a revelation. I love the work so much more this way and it, in turn helps me to rediscover the piano versions after the fact...
I always liked it but now, it's part of my usual string work, weekly if not daily string Bach works. Exquisite
Exquisite❤
This recording is the soundtrack for when Heaven meets Earth.

Breathtaking and sublime, a rare combination of ingredients which all came together!! Distinct from the "authentic baroque/original instruments" style or the overly romanticized renditions that too often characterize baroque music transcriptions, this most gifted trio brings the elegance and passion of Schubert like chamber music to the heart and soul of JS Bach in a manner that is brilliant, unique and truly a revelation.
Unsurpassable performance of unsurpassable music. Wish we could make it sound like this. Full of Bach wit and poetry.
Thank you Michael! We appreciate your comment and hope you stay tuned for more Bach programming to come!
Wonderful rendition of Sitkovetskoy version. The cellist is beautiful and the violist is sympathetic. The viola part by Sitkovetskoy is written very intersting.
Very insightful comment, Ryo. We are glad you enjoyed it.
I don't usually chime in with such a comment.. and it's true I've only kind of carefully listened to first five minutes or so ... and I'm a pianist and organist who knows nothing about strings but...
how could anyone not like this performance?
Yeah I'm looking at these 20 dislikes and I'm just like...how?
Totally lovely in every way. I know I'm impressed!
And I cry. Love O'Neill...stunning.
Bach is smiling.
Thank you so much Master O'Neil and Camerata Pacifica for your selflessness; I loved Ensemble Ditto's performance but it was removed from youtube. Thank you for your beautiful heart in giving one of my fave Bach works. Love the cello especially.
너무나 아름다운 조화가 마음속 깊은곳에서 춤추듯 노래합니다
멋진음악을 듣게되어 영광입니다
감사합니다 _()_
thanks to Bach, Sitkovetsky and these performers ! Very ELEGANT, and i appreciate very much.
Delightful, delicious, delovely. Such quality in interpretation. Some of the violin performed here reminds me of the great Hugh Bean, back in that EMI day with Kkemperer's Bach.
I already prized these personally, having home-recorded these on a concert grand Yamaha, for just my 'known associates', but now even more so, if possible.
Such a wonderful transcription, and before I ever knew of different string versions of these, I had long heard them like this in mind's ear, as a string trio, alternately, just as I hear Bach's 2 & 3 part inventions, especially. Well, in fact, everything Bach does always begs for multi-formatted transcriptions. All kinds! Heck, even turned into be-bop, like the Swingle Singers, lol.)
Great stuff! MORE! MUCH!
Thanks!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🎵💎
Thanks for your comment, John! Very insightful.
Condenser microphones is responsible for these new age clearer than clear recordings.
Thank you for playing carefully so I can travel to Bach for a long time. It's fantastic and gorgeous!!!!!!
Good heavens, can there be anything more beautiful than this. Played by someone capable on the piano it is exquisite, if not fiendishly difficult. How difficult can this be played by a string trio. Just spent an hour with some nice red wine, in ecstasy watching and listening to this sublime performance.
Thanks for your comment, Frank! Glad you enjoyed this performance as much as we do.
@@CamerataPacifica Watching again. I love the piano version, especially by Angela Hewitt. Howver, aa wonderful as the piano is, it cannot compere with the textures portrayed by a superb string trio. This time with scotch and ice. More please! Also love your Smetana piano trio.
🤣"if not fiendishly difficult"🤣
So wonderful you have made this available to us!
It is a really moving performance. I got a great comfort. Thank you so so so much.
i like this performance by these musicians
very characteristic but elegant
Fabulous ensemble, flawless intonation, a wonderful revelation: a tonal extension of the piano version
"Piano" version?! Do you mean "harpsichord"? There were no pianos in Bach's times.
@@graziacavasino8884 Clearly he has in mind the modern keyboard exponents of this work, such as Glenn Gould, Yudina, Koroliov and so many others who recorded these on piano.
In fact, the piano is truly a tonal expansion, and this version yet further expanded. (Who could imagine Michelangeli recording, or even playing, Beethoven's last 1820 Broadwood piano? The Defense rests.)
Bach gives himself to that, historically iinformed be canned.
[Perhaps "Klavier" in that sense. Jawohl. Bach was a seer, by ear, and wrote for an open-ended "time." The flexibilty of the over-arching design of his 'oeuvre' is inherent proof that he can envision boundless forms for it.
Not that many exponents adapt it to piano (my instrument) without some loss of different kinds in the newer contexts, but just like the gripes we always about much modern forms, the point is not to do them less, just better.
As good as Glenn Gould can often be, there are so many of his flourishes and personal touches that he puts to Bach, that seldom do I find there isn't room, even often lots, for improvement, or better nuance.
But that is the glory and the spur of interpretation, to hear more, see more.
Really, we all grow spiritually and emotionally, and above all, musically (lol) when we listen with passionate participation in the whole process of making the music, as companion listeners.
In my early days of playing. I used to get so wound up by not yet having technique to play some of these, yet.
Years later, I realized in hindsight that some of my best 'playing' had been just listening that intensely in those days before I could play as well.
I was, if you'll excuse the most horrific pun in the history of music,
....playing by ear.
Go figure.
[By the way, kudos to the tremendous gifts of all 3 players here. After listening a number of times, I am "jazzed" by the sublimity in all three instruments and interpretations.
Here I had almost closed the book on most modern recordings, most just crazy as bugs in tempi choices, as I had heard, when I came across Camerata Pacifica. This shows the poetic regard of the Bach of my youth: Milstein, Menuhin, Heifetz, Oistrakhs' et al.
Those aren't old-fashioned or 'traditional' or, eek, "historically uninformed" values.
They're BACH values. 🤣🤕😎😱👌!
BRAVO !
awe-inspiring

07:07 Who knows why the 1st violin player do the vibrato in String E while doing pitch A in Open String?
Amenobach,
I 'm late but here's the answer: vibrating on the next string does cause the A string to have more resonance and vibration as well...
❤
Great. Can u tell me please were do you get the parts?
