I don’t know music as these other commenters do, but this is so beautiful. I love the cello and am thinking serious about learning it or the violin. Can’t decide which first, but I want to play all the things!
This is such a super simple piece, I'm just learning the piano part now. You can learn this piece and learn to play it with a cellist in one afternoon. But to do it justice like these two - that's a whole other matter. So elegant! So And I'm impressed at how softly Victor Asuncion is able to accompany with the lid of the piano fully open!
Maria Theresia became blind at age two. So talented that Mozart met with her when she was fifteen and wrote a piano concerto for her. Her memory capacity puzzled the science.
And she also has not written this piece :) Not 17th century progression at all. Aside of that it is clearly a variation of Weber - Violin sonata op.10 n°1. So the "editor" of this piece Samuel Dushkin most likely did not "explored" it but wrote. A bit of a marketing hoax)
I come no more to make you laugh: things now, That bear a weighty and a serious brow, Sad, high, and working, full of state and woe, Such noble scenes as draw the eye to flow, We now present.
This is a nice performance by cello. I've been loving this Siciliano of Paradis as same as Faure or Respighi. By the way I wonder who the cellist is? By any chance, Was he a chief cellist who belonged to the Cleveland Orchestra of George Szell at around 1970? If so, I am thinking there existed a certain female cellist like Hollywood actress beside him. Because I've seen the record jacket of that Orchestra.
winrx Thank you for your precious information. Reading this mail, I became so happy ,thinking that she had been playing cello for very long time in Cleveland symphony orchestra. I am not able to forget her beautiful, intelligent expression that was watching George Szell's behavior. So nice experience ! from Small Edo ST prefecture
Maria Theresia von Paradis did not compose this piece of music whose melody and harmony are clearly not from a person who was born in 1759 and died in 1824. It is well known that it is a fake created some time in the 20th Century by Samuel Douchkine (1891-1976) who claimed to have discovered it and who was inspired by a theme from the violin sonata (opus 10 no. 1) by Carl Maria von Weber. Of course this has nothing to do with the beautiful rendition of Lynn Harrell. Thank you for sharing
Note slightly flat at 1:31 which makes me feel a little bit better to know even Mr. Harrell whom I deeply admire is not perfect 100% of the time...I do agree that his speed is more than a little bit up tempo at least for me...the plaintiveness that I was expecting from this is missing from this performance in my view. I will be performing this on Sunday...(!!!)
Harrell is so imperfect that he doesn't do his musical research. This piece is not by Paradis; it is a paraphrase of a piece by Carl Maria von Weber, taken from one of Weber's violin sonatas by Samuel Dushkin in the 20th century who then claimed he 'discovered' a piece by Paradis. It's all a hoax. Harrell should know better.
@@fourstrings48 It's NOT in the Classical style. Part of it was copped from Carl Maria von Weber and written most likely by Samuel Dushkin in the 1920s.
It is called rubato...the little differences you hear in time are meant to bring out certain notes. I personally luke the light, fluffy approach Lynn Harrell takes but daaamn does sheku sound good. Listen to Jacqueline Du Pré's version...hers is stellar.
This is beautiful, but it doesn't sound remotely like something written by a person born in 1759, only three years after Mozart. It seems to belong to a much later age.
Thanks guys, I needed a good cry...
When Lynn died so did 15% of cellistic colors with him...R.I.P.
May he Rest In Peace.
Rest In Peace to a true legend ❤️
🙏
what a great cellist R.I.P

This is a wonderful interpretation

Beautiful ....RIP Matster....
It is a glissando actually, deliberately and very well executed.
i’m performing this piece! i love this vid as an example
Good luck (probably late lmao)

really？
@@neurocat6453 If what you say is true, then Harrell was not the only accomplished professional cellist to be fooled.
So nice...
Bravo!
Hombre, alguien que habla español
Great Music!
BRAVO
Lynn it is very good :3
Wow. He makes me feel so pathetic trying to play this piece when he will always be there to make it sound ten times more beautiful.
Let it inspire you and help you to find the technique and colors as you listen to how he shapes each line just like a vocalist would sing.
What a beautiful piece!
Wow 😮 Lynn is good🎄🕎🦃🎉🎊

The female cellist you speak of is Diane Mather who played in the Cleveland Orchestra from 1963 - 2001.

And yes LH was principal cellist under Szell in the 60s. A beautiful soul as someone has said. May he rest in peace.
So much passionate
FYI This is just about the tempo employed by most violinists who have recorded this piece.....

Euphemia Huang Great opinion I think!
i’m performing this too! good luck
@@justindzikowski7964 lmao that was 7 years agoo
what did he say in the beginning? lol
ddelfao it sure will get a cellist going. (Refering to the previous peice)
@@nickdavis965 so why people laugh when he says that? I don't get it 🤔
An artist. Taking risks in music at the *momentum*
This piece is really by the violinist Samuel Dushkin (1891-1976). Von Paradis was a contemporary of Mozart and her music sounds nothing like this.
probably NOT by Paradis (seems to be an hoax)

I am here because of a movie called Mesmer
Beautiful tone, superb legato, a perfectly judged tempo...but why so many glissandi?
And why not?
There beautiful and I think that it sounds great with them in.
@@scl6797 Glissandi are appropriate for Romantic-period music, but far less so in pieces (such as this one) in the Classical style.

I am learning this song right not and am pathetic compared to this
His timing seems to be a bit off. Sheku-Kanneh Mason's version is much cleaner and pleasing on the ear in my opinion.
