Played on the theorbo by Xavier Díaz-Latorre.
Please visit www.xavierdiazlatorre.com
I've heard quite a large number of lutenists and classical guitarists since I began playing in 1964, and somehow I have only now stumbled upon Diaz-Latorre. He is absolutely wonderful, and master of not only that instrument but also the music. Finding both is extraordinarily rare, and I am really overwhelmed by his playing.
It's true, I just fall somewhere into old times, listening to Xavier... Just something real, a connection to medieval and Renaissance.
@@sfgylk34u_57this is a baroque instrument.
As a guitarist, I'm hearing all the elements it took years of practice to master and present so perfectly. Outstanding performance!
I first found this video when it was relatively new and I still love it so much over a decade later.
i do not know how many times i have listened this lovely piece, but it is an endless bliss....thanx Xavier!
10 years after...still SOoo delightfully played. Thank you so much.♥
That is the best version and interpretation of this song I have heard. Completely refreshing, totally insightful that the convention may not have been the previous norm, there is so much more humour and intimacy to this one. It is like the piece has been brought to life. I really love it. Absolutely well done
Absolutely - humor and intimacy, and a joy that is lacking in so many renditions.
I rarely go to guitar music .I'm an orchestrator ,trained pianist and violinist but the deVisee was enchanting and Diaz-Latorre infectious musicality is unforgettable .
THE BEST VERSION os Chaconne of Visee all other players killed the song, this sounds so much so so so much better it´s like floating in a universe of love
Thank you TS
@@laberintosingeniosos Gracias, maestro. Gracias.
because; he feels that century playing the theorbo
Gracias maestro Diaz. Greetings from Turkey. Teşekkürler.
Yes it's my favorite version too.
This performance is such a treasure. I'm so glad I stumbled across it!

Gracias ,gracias, gracias, gracias....❤️
Agradeço a beleza, mesmo que tardiamente.
Don Xavier: tengo meses escuchando esta magnífica interpretación de esta obra y ya no pude resistir un breve comentario: la unión de su bellísimo instrumento y su virtuosa pericia para tocarlo es la mayor cercanía al cielo que uno podrá vivir en esta tierra. Tantas gracias a Dios por su talento y a usted por la generosidad de compartirlo,
Swings so sweetly. 🎶
This music is much better than the music of these days.
in any case, is a beautiful piece, you are right

lier Bieber is the king of musical inovations
I do not even know if the current song can be called "music"
Shravyäie Saüyé I very much agree, though what I find interesting about this piece is that uniting it enters the minor I could easily imagine it being something written for guitar nowadays.
This is the most beautiful performance, I thought I have seen great playing before, and I have, but this is next level musicianship, history resurrected!
I keep coming back to this performance, there's something very special about it. Such a carefree, playful piece of music. I love it!
Its nice to see people having intelligent conversations in the youtube comments for once.
Good grief! Never in my life have I been dragged back through the centuries like this. Magnificent playing of de Visée, but your additions were just perfect. Still speechless some considerable number of minutes later. So many thanks for posting. Regards P.
Thx marsvitor2, you are very kind. I'm glad you liked it.
I most wholeheartedly and ardently concur.
@@maureenedonovan9935 jigt
Magnificent!!!!
RUclips gem right here.Takes me somewhere else.
You make me want to sell my car and buy a lute :)
Absolutely in love with your playing. Those trills.
thx Nate, with the guitar will be enough ;)
I couldn't agree with you more. This is where they all come out - all the bottled up emotions of a man. I do think that many women do indeed appreciate a man's feelings through his music though, as I've often seen it speak to them.
Sr. Díaz-Latorre, ni se imagina el torrente de emociones que he sentido al escuchar su ejecución, hasta me he reído de felicidad... de verdad CHAPEAU; además de la hermosa que es la canción su interpretación es admirable,-
Ojala se pudiera dar un salto por Canarias a deleitarnos con su música, jejeje.
Gracias por su contribución a la Música.
Freedom and Love!
gracias Ismael
Gracias por la hermosa melodía y el rico tiempo.
I am tempted to give up the piano and go back to being a beginner on the lute.
I understand you, I still feel a beginner
I would like to play the lute too, but I am only lucky enough to own a piano, so I just arrange and perform my favorite lute pieces on the piano, and I use the sustain pedal as much as I like... So far, I have not been scolded by the disembodied spirits of any of my favorite composers, not have I been scorned by any fellow musicians, neither lutenist not pianist... I'm sure the ghost of Sylvius Leopold Weiß has better thing to do than worry about what I do with my hammerklavier... Perhaps, were I to be honored with such a haunting, the phantom Maestro might be honored and pleased that intangible qualities of his compositions (the prescribed relations between the notes themselves) have the potential of outliving the physical instrument for which they were first conceived?
Me too!!
Superb! Bravo! I love Robert de Visee! Great playing Xavier! Bellisimo!
All the angels in Heaven were all around you when with you recorded this, Xavier! I can't tell you how many times I listen to it! - When you get into that blossoming, beautiful swinging section, it is as though the music itself is embracing us through your love and spirit!
Cuervo Luminoso thx Cuervo 🙂 very kind
I played thissong on repeat too ! It makes all troubles go away. I listened everyday for a month .
I've been listening to this every morning. It's the perfect way to begin the day. I have some golden moments with my beloved dogs & this is absolute perfection.
deenibeeniable my dogs run away when I play 😜
Well my two dogs are big fans--and so am I!
Lover the artistry in playing this classic. How do you ever keep this instrument in tune.
In our days we've got internet, enough food, enough money, we can survive almost every desease but we've lost the good music.
Thank you so much.
Wonderful playing, beautiful piece and amazing tone from the theorbo. I play harpsichord sometimes and wish for rich plucked sound but with expressive ability.
Thank you Xavier for posting.
mattbod Thank you very much, it's indeed a nice piece of music
C'est vraiment un très grand plaisir d'écouter ici cette pièce si magnifiquement interprétée par Xavier Diaz-Latorre. Bravo et merci, et aussi pour le bon enregitsrement "maison". Je continue à soutenir votre travail sur Patreon.
I love the french style music it is so proud a feeling, so gallant.
I agree
Oh, this is truly beautiful. A great composition played by a master.
This is a wonderful piece played very well. Very expressive
wonderful piece indeed
Splendida esecuzione per le risonanze interne che si rincorrono, create e modulate dalle dita di Diaz Latorre
Cuanto más lo escucho, más me gusta. Gracias por la magia que transmite usted tocando esta pieza!
Dom Xavier, mucias gracias!
Precioso estilo muy acertado en la combinacion de los rasgueados y los pasajes melodicos.
Starting to add to my LUTE playlist again. Great job. Keep going!
This chaccone sounds so modern :)
true, it does
he modified it to sound better, listen to other versions, lack of the same spirit and sonority, he embellished it to a master level, making it better. Like the Green Sleaves from Francis Cutting much better than the "original" version .
Une des plus belles vidéos de luth au monde
Bravo! Vous êtes l'un des meilleurs luthistes que je connaisse tant pour la technique de jeu que pour la musicalité et l'intelligence de l'interprétation. Vous savez faire danser cette merveilleuse musique sur laquelle plus de trois siècles ont passé! J'admire tout particulièrement votre maîtrise du "tiré" et de du razgueado avec lesquels je me bats depuis longtemps!
Thomas Luth merci Thomas, tres gentil 😊
Ver a un laudista dominar el estilo de la monodia acompañada del siglo XVII es bellísimo
Exquisite playing. Your instrument is perfect for the playing of the cicconia and passacagli of the 17th. C. Many of Visee's works were written for the tiorba francesa given to him by the king. Thanks for sharing this magical music moment. Made my day!!
Thank you fnersch. Very kind
Your performance is uplifting, exalting, one of the most beautiful things I've heard. Thank you very much for this living tradition.
thank you so much for sharing such wonderful music, and so wonderfully interpreted.
thx for listening
Un merveille, bravo Xavier
EXQUISITE MUSIC! . And so BEAUTIFULLY perfomed! POR DIOS!
Alan Sparrow Thank you very much Alan
@@laberintosingeniosos 7 years later and your PURE MUSIC OF THE SPHERES IS STILL PLAYING INSIDE MY HEART AND SOUL! Muchas gracias, Xavier!
incredible, as usual. i don't think i've ever come across a video by mr. diaz-latorre that i haven't loved!
Maravilhoso! Um dia hei-de adaptar esta peça para Cítara Portuguesa.
GREATEST INTERPRETATION. NO DOUBT
one the most unique interpretations and songs of all time ... I would love if mestre Xavier could transcript this for 6 string guitar. as some as i do not posses theorical musical knowledge ... at least i can then make a tablature... como soy "primitivo"
This music is healing my soul.
MAGNIFICO , precioso , impresionante ,LA MEJOR VERSIÓN
:)
man I keep coming back to this-it's a wonderful place
@MrTHocker hi, about the tunning, it's called meantone, which means that the scale is not spaced equal in 12 but in 17. So a c sharp and a d flat is not the same. The first is lower than the second. Therefore we need a special spacing of the frets for each key. My typ, if you buy an instrument, is that you should buy a good one! Since you are musician, you wouldn't stand a regular one. About the amount of instruments, you don't want to see my wardrobe....regards
that was Great! thanks.
I would give my right hand to have your graceful technique.
but you couldn't play at all :) better to keep your hand as it is :) and practice :) best regards
All of your playing is amazing and a joy to listen, but this one really blows me away, it's simply out of this world! Thank you so much for preserving this precious moments in time and sharing it with us!
Beautiful song and really nicely played. Had a go in it, almost like a slow Swedish polska. ;-)
Mon Dieu, chaque fois quand j'écoute cette Chaconne, je pleure. Je ne sais pas du tout pourquoi. Elle m'influence, elle m'émeut. Merci encore une fois.
Una obra preciosa, elegante... que traslada a la imagen que uno tiene de esa época en la historia. Felicidades por su interpretación llena de sensibilidad, matices y una técnica muy cuidada.
gracias MiguelÁngel
This is so great
Mollt Be! Xavier eres fantastico! He is really Great!. Love it! Me encanta!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!
This is music making of the very highest order.
Incredible. I've watched a number of your videos now and it's like a time portal to a Europe ages past. Sublime work. Thank you for sharing.
Thx Mindi, very kind
The point is when you play, the music lives, period!
Fantástico. Una interpretación hermosísima. Mi enhorabuena.
gracias Alberto
I had a chance to see Mr. Diaz-Latorre perform on vihuela at the Cervantes Institute in Manhattan some years ago and I passed on it. My loss....regreting it now.
I am glad to see that you will be appearing in Australia in 2018! I look forward to seeing and hearing you in Melbourne.
Geoffrey Bryan Im glad too. Will be my first time in Australia. I'd love to ad some solo or masterclasses to my participation on the tournée. Best regards
That would be excellent! The recital centre in Melbourne has a salon next door that it probably a perfect space for what you want. Indeed tomorrow (10th April) I'm going to a lute/baroque guitar recital there (my teacher Rosemary Hodgson is playing). So may be that's the venue ou might want to look at. Signor Savall has played in the main hall a number of times.
When will Xavier be in Australia and is he coming to Adelaide if not I will come to Melbourne to hear him play I would also like to attend a master class if you organize one I can be contacted at roblindacarruthers@gmail cheers Rob
美しい旋律と豊かな時間をありがとう
Xavier, you are truly one of the best lutenists of our time.
Any chance of hearing you in concert in Norway sometime?
Also - do you have any solo recordings planned soon?
Hi selenographia, you are too kind. I'd love to play in Norway, but so far, the more at the north where I've played is in FInland, several times :) But I'vent got any invitation yet for Norway. Regarding to my Cd's, you can check my website and you'll find the info. Bests
Superbe chaconne avec ses nombreuses variations.Que cela fait du bien d'écouter une telle musique en ces temps bruyants de musique insipide Bravo encore
Merci beaucoup Gilles
Lovely Chaconne and lovely playing. Are the bass strings tuned openly? I noticed them being plucked unfretted accompanying your fretted notes in the higher register. I would love to play lute. There are so many different types. I could not afford one neither could I afford to pay for the basic instruction. I can manage about 4 pages of Bach's famous Chaconne in Dmin on classical guitar, and some Silvius Leopold Weiss. I was self taught for that task, combining my ear-ability with a basic understanding of guitar notation having bought a teach yourself book to start me off. Before then I was playing entirely by ear covers of people I like such as Hendrix, the Who etc. I'm venturing now into jazz standards in chord/melody style. Thanks for sharing your playing of these wonderful instruments and the great compositions!
a lot of times bass strings like that are tuned stepwise diatonically
@@davidferrara1105 Pretty much - From the 6th to 14th course it's a diatonic scale, in this case G Major (So from highest to lowest A G F# E D C B A G)
@@davidferrara1105 Every time for lutes, actually. There's some weird exception but virtually every configuration for lutes the strings are a scale from the A string down.
Sin palabras... solo puedo decir : EXCEPCIONAL !!!
Gran interpretacion!
:)
Un goce. Visée cada vez me gusta más. Qué gusto contar con una grabación de usted tañendo músicas del francés en este maravilloso instrumento.
Gracias tocayo. De hecho acaba de salir a la luz mi disco Robert de Visée, el cual contiene esta pieza :)
Ya estoy buscándolo
Hola, muy bueno, gracias por subirlo!!!
¿podría decirme si toca guitarra clásica?
Saludos
Pablo Fernandez la toqué muchos años. Saludos!
What a joy ! 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️ 🙏
Great, decisive, original performance. Thank & many thanks.
@8888Rik thank you very much, kind words
Magniffique ,une porte qui s'ouvre sur des gents et des lieux enchanteurs,ont y sens du soleil qui se faufille a travers des futée , ou des voutes parts quelques vitraux :)
For me the most beautiful video on RUclips - the music and your performing make the world to a nicer place, make me happy. Thank you so very much!
this is HEAVEN!!! so sublime!!! thank you, thank you!!!
BRAVOOOO , WOWWW virtuose!
:)
I love to watch his own joy at playing this piece. It’s infectious! Bravo
Como tiorbista principiante y como vihuelista ya con experiencia he de decir que es alucinante el arte que tienes con el instrumento, el control sobre los bajos, el poder bajo tus campanellas, La destreza absoluta con la que rasgueas, y sobre todo que todas las notas son limpias y claras, si puedo, intentaré ir a Barcelona y conocerte, y si tengo la oportunidad de tenerte de profesor mientras hago el superior sería alucinante
Beautiful!
Un fantastique instrument si riche et bien plus voluptueux qu'une guitare, et il est d'origines diverses. Ça donne envie
Superbe prestation.
acrylup merci bien. J'adore aussi
He / hemos tenido la inmensa suerte de escucharle...verle, junto con otro genio, como es Jordi Savall, en Valladolid, el pasado jueves 30 de octubre. La interpretación de esta obra, así como de las restantes, fueron un alivio para el alma, en estos tiempo que nos estamos "comiendo". Muchas gracias por su paciencia, y regalarnos con tres bises. Un placer, que repetiría. Un saludo.
Gracias Jorge, yo también disfruté
I should live long enough to play so well!
You set the bar high, Xavier.
you will :)
Thanks dearly for such exquisite melody which enhances the beauty of life, offering us meanders of loving thoughts deepening each daily moments so essential to build paradise on Gaia ( MotherEarth ) ! What a blessing work so passionating and generous !!
Merci ancore Jean-Baptiste, ça sarais jolie, un monde Gaia ou tout ses habitants, pouvant sentir le plaisir de l'art au même temps. Amitiés
This is the greatest performance I have ever heard on the Theorbo
I keep coming back to this rendition,years now
