In my opinion, David’s Bach recordings are redefining guitar history. I am so extremely happy we have these documents to consult and refer to when we think of great Bach interpretations. Magnificent playing, David! And thanks to Omni for producing this project.
I indeed agree with your comments. I was taken to a heavenly dream by listening David playing Bach so smoothly and perfectly. And the guitar sound is wonderful!!!!
I think they make a great contribution in guitar history. David is considered to be one of the best classical guitarists among other equally prominent important names. I think this is enough. Why to swell it further?... What is the aim...
Russell is absolutely amazing. Saw him in Baltimore and sat behind Manuel Barrueco and had to tell him how much I've enjoyed his LPs since the 70s. Two Grammy Winners in the same room together!
I remember the day when I first saw David on RUclips. Since then my guitar music world has changed. I've learned more then 30 pieces (Villa Lobos, Bach, Granados etc.) Thank you David for opening to me that magical world
David, Your playing is on a level I will never attain in a million years. I thank you for bringing to my ears that magic which is possible to hear but alas impossible for me to play as I would like. I try every day to improve and just sometimes a piece comes off well enough for me to rise up and be just a little pleased with myself, and helps me persevere.
Por si no era suficiente belleza y calidad la magnífica interpretación y ejecución de Russell a una obra de Bach, como plus se nos obsequia con esta maravillosa obra arquitectónica, llena de belleza e historia, como locación. Ante semejante derroche de talento artístico solo se puede agradecerle a la vida y de todo corazón a los realizadores y artistas el poder disfrutarlo, enhorabuena!
I am learning/preparing this suite. This gold standard recording is essential - the camera angles are a tremendous gift and the audio recording quality is phenomenally good. My goodness - this is sublime. I have just realised how much ornament practice I have to revisit 🤣 Mr Russell - bless your cotton socks mate 🙏🏼❤️
So grateful for Bach,life would be much different without his inspirational Art he gave us.David is undoubtedly one of the best interpreters of this music in the Classical guitar medium!
David Russell, magnifique artiste ! Vraiment. Avec lui, la musique reprend sa place d'impératrice , qui lui avait été volée. Merci infini à vous Monsieur Russell.
Altro pianeta... Sempre stato il mio interprete preferito di Bach. Controllo, dinamica,espressione, tecnica alla massima potenza... Grazie per questi documenti fantastici che resteranno nella storia della musica per chitarra (lautenwerk...)
No tengo palabras para tanto, quizás podría decir GRACIAS Maestro David por tanta música y dedicación; a su esposa por tan delicados enfoques, me atrevería a decir que dedicadas a los guitarristas. Fund Omni, no se detengan. Dios te Bendiga J.S.Bach
David, estás musicalmente fortísimo. Que maravilla de interpretación y el sonido en el Monasterio de Samos (por el que pasé en su día haciendo el Camino). Tengo esta partitura desde que era adolescente y solía tocarla para practicar lectura. Ahora la oigo, entiendo cosas que no tenían demasiado sentido musical para mi y Bach cobra vida a través de tu magistral interpretación. Gracias David por todo este ciclo en las iglesias. Es de una belleza sublime. Thanks a lot :-)
This one is by far the best one. What an amazing effort, not only on the playing but the entire production and concept. We many times forget that what we do as artists must have relevance beyond the notes, even Bach's. Biggest congratulations!
Extraordinario, como siempre. Tengo que reconocer que David Russell es mi guitarrista clásico predilecto. Gracias por enseñar el maravilloso monasterio benedictino de San Julián de Samos. Tesoro de España. Gracias a Omni Foundation.
Després d'escoltar la versió que em fa D. Russell de la suite BWV 995 de J. S. Bach, em quedo estupefacte davant de tanta perfecció en la seva execució. Estem, en la meva opinió, davant, molt possiblement, del millor guitarrista de tots els temps. La seva extraordinària musicalitat, el seu virtuosisme, la seva tècnica prodigiosa, aquests tres elements fan d'ell un intèrpret singular, únic en la història de la guitarra.
Great work, Maestro. I would like personally just few more breaths, but this is a top rendition. We met in Rome, I think was 1998, in one of your masterclass: I played Ponce Sonatina Meridional. This Suite 995 I brought for my diplome in the far 1986, then I left it to play the other Bach Suites, all gems, but I still think this is the most "lutenist" despite derived from the cello. So now this video is like a masterclass to take it back in my hands. Really impressive the presto. Many thanks for your share Maestro Russell. Let me know if you will play in Rome, best wishes.
Gracias por tú interpretación. Soy Hans de Uruguay y te agradezco por tú exposición y tú entrega. Verdaderamente me siento pleno con tu interpretación. Creo fidedignamente que fuiste alumno del maestro Carlevaro
Bravo!👍👍👍👏👏👏 What an excellent interprétation & technique！ Thank you for performing in such a beautiful monastery! I really enjoy your guitar music in such a fine acoustic . Perfect performance!❤❤
Extraordinaria interpretación una vez más del Maestro Russel. Gran calidad de sonido; estas interpretaciones merecen ser editadas en discos. Gracias, y la fundación Omni, por hacer posible esta serie.
Thank you Mastro David I must visit this part of Spain and this monastery. I can wander around old churches for hours. The performance is impeccable as always and it would be great if you could record these Suites as it would be amazing to have these on CD.I think you are the greatest living classical guitarist and I try to get something vaguely approaching your tone!. I wish you would come to the UK more often. I play the organ and piano too so would love to hear that instrument.
Thank you for doing these exquisite performances. You bring these pieces to life and all the talent and expertise you bring to this wonderful music is a joy to hear. You’re playing serves the music and elevates it.
I have listened to the lute suites many times since about 1965. David DEFINES how they should be played. They are musically superior to all other renditions I have heard. Awesome!
This man has surpassed the level of mastery on the classical guitar. I believe that it will be generations before we such a high level of virtuosity again.
@@wimbronkhorst7382 Indeed and that's what I implied. Humility is the greatest quality one can hold. David is a consumate player and artist yet, he is humble..!!
Absolutely superbly performed! I so love the way you bring out the passion and in this case the solemness of this piece. Enjoyed the lightness of the last section. David, you are above and beyond any other classical guitarist I have ever heard and am so happy to have had this experience! Thank you!👏👏👏👏💕
Bravo Maestro!!! Me encantan sus interpretaciones de Bach en esos hermosos Monasterios. Espero escucharlo y conocerlo algún en día en persona. Le mando un fuerte abrazo y muchas gracias. Desde Córdoba-Argentina.
Not even the master Segovia maintained his playing level in the way Russell has, at his age he keeps peeking his technique and interpretation. I'm certain we're seeing the GOAT here
David Russel un interprète grandiose d’une grande sensibilité avec une technique extraordinaire il fait partie des plus grands guitaristes classiques de tous les temps ❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐
mil gracias, hermano... for the beautiful photography and tour... priceless information... mil gracias... it's on my itinerary for a trip across that area of the World soon... just to see that organ... what an awesome piece of technology thanks for la musica muy bella, señor... muchas gracias desde la Sierra Estrella en Arizona mi casa es su casa
Excelente serie con las Suites para Laúd de J.S. Bach en transcripción para Guitarra interpretadas por el mas grande Guitarrista de todo los tiempos como es David Russell, sería genial si ese material podría ser grabado en un CD doble en donde figuren todas las Suites de Bach de manos de David Russell, ojalá se concrete el deseó.

Could you time stamp the movements please?

yes DR's ornaments are outrageously clean and authentic.
These recordings as well as David himself are pure treasures

Thank you, Mr Russell, for a beautiful performance. outstanding and immensely inspiring!🙏❤🎶🎶
These videos are treasures, stunning performance of David Russell and amazing places.
Thank you Omni Foundation
Este vídeo tiene que tener un premio! Grandiosa interpretación!
Possibly the finest guitarist of the generation.
Altro pianeta... Sempre stato il mio interprete preferito di Bach. Controllo, dinamica,espressione, tecnica alla massima potenza... Grazie per questi documenti fantastici che resteranno nella storia della musica per chitarra (lautenwerk...)
beautiful music played with such emotion and passion in a beautiful setting
David is doing for the Lute Suites what Glenn Gould did for the Goldberg Variations.
No words for this.
No tengo palabras para tanto, quizás podría decir GRACIAS Maestro David por tanta música y dedicación; a su esposa por tan delicados enfoques, me atrevería a decir que dedicadas a los guitarristas. Fund Omni, no se detengan. Dios te Bendiga J.S.Bach
J. S. Bach o maior compositor de todos os tempos, e belíssima interpretação do grande violonista David Russell.
Thank you so much for allowing us to listen to beautiful music. always be healthy ♬
Beautiful, beautiful music.

👏 Bravo , really special setting and performance .
Composition/interpretation/performer/venue all these combine to make this 3rd suite and 3rd video one for all time. Thanks to all!!
These Bach series are so beautiful
Amazing tone, phrasing & colour! And those trills...
The trills are outstanding
Guess it was my first happy birthday gift 🎁... wonderful performance!
This one is by far the best one. What an amazing effort, not only on the playing but the entire production and concept.

Fantastico, grande M° Russell! È sempre emozionante ascoltarla.
Bravo!👍👍👍👏👏👏
What an excellent interprétation & technique！
Thank you for performing in such a beautiful monastery!
I really enjoy your guitar music in such a fine acoustic .
Perfect performance!❤❤
Superb interpretations and performances by Mr. Russell. Thank you!
Very few people can play the guitar like you do David, thank you ...

Yo arer very negative Wim
I am pretty close, but give me 15 years more to practice 😆
Wim, the most beautiful thing is that David would be the first to disagree!! He is an incredibly humble man
@@herblaforest5179One can hear the humility in his playing. But still. He remains a legend. Thank you.
@@wimbronkhorst7382 Indeed and that's what I implied. Humility is the greatest quality one can hold. David is a consumate player and artist yet, he is humble..!!
Aguardo la maravillosa guitarra de David!!
wundervoll! diese Arpeggien und Triller.. sooo klingt es mit Gitarre auch toll (als mit Laute)!
Absolutely superbly performed! I so love the way you bring out the passion and in this case the solemness of this piece. Enjoyed the lightness of the last section. David, you are above and beyond any other classical guitarist I have ever heard and am so happy to have had this experience! Thank you!👏👏👏👏💕
Wonderful rendition
Incredible. Simply Incredible. Back in the mid 80's found an lp by Russell still in shrink wrap but don't have it anymore. Big regret!
Simplesmente magnífico.. Interpretações sem paralelo... Bravo
Maravillosa interpretación 👍
Came upon this performance by chance- thank goodness!!
Beautiful surroundings and beautiful music. Thank you Mr David Russell 👏👏👏👏
