I don't regularly get teary eyed listening to Bach, but the clarity of tone and depth of feeling in this gorgeous interpretation did it for me. World class.
Upon reading further down in the comments I learned that she did have the score in front of her for certain passages. Her humility makes her all the more beautiful. She's a fantastic artist.
Теперь я точно знаю, что значит "убить двух зайцев") Это когда красивая девушка красиво играет на гитаре) Сам преподаю гитару, играю некоторые части из лютневых сюит, и поэтому знаю, какой колоссальный труд был Вами проделан, прежде чем Бах зазвучал красиво и убедительно. Мне тоже нравится, когда темп более умеренный. Когда эта прелюдия играется быстро, у меня, например, возникает чувство, как будто я не успеваю насладиться красотой пьесы. Вообще, мне кажется, Бахом надо, прежде всего наслаждаться. С большим удовольствием послушал сюиту в вашем исполнении. Благодарствуем! Так держать! Добра Вам, здоровья и удачи!
This is really very very high level playing. Playing Bach is like riding a bike steeply downhill. ANY hesitation and you'll crash. Hard. Now try that with this tone and dynamics. Top level. Beautiful.
Beautifully done, Gohar! 👏👏👏 Absolutely loved it! The tempo of the prelude is so appropriate, and the way you transition to the Fugue, which was breathtaking, and each movement after till the Double so immaculately done! Bravo!!
This is my favourite. In Bach's music, things that are impossible to play on the guitar as written. But they can be wonderful if you play like you did. Fantastic performance!
I know I just posted - but upon listnening to to this for a second time? well this is just crazy good. The melody talking above the walking bass in the final movement is just killer. Wow...
I see David Russell has just recorded this with people claiming it to be the definitive Bach, a new level never before seen in guitar playing ! Yours is better in my eyes, you should be recognised as world class along with top players like Williams, Russell and Barrueco. I am totally blown away by that performance !
Some musicians are just more pleasant to look at play than others because of some small things they do. Maybe a facial expression maybe the way they move their hand. I think Gohar is such wonderful musician which makes viewed appreciate her face and eyes because of how they connect to the guitar.
Incredible performance Gohar!! The Sarabande was my favorite…until you played the Gigue…until that Double. How did you sustain such a legato bass line on that final movement? Amazing. Thanks for sharing this.
Thank you!!!! I’m glad you enjoyed it!!!! I usually practice everything very slowly, which allows me to hear when notes get cut off… I always try to keep the bass line connected, it makes everything sound more legato. Unfortunately, there were some places I couldn’t connect the notes as well, because I had to reuse the same left hand finger on different strings.
@@GoharVardanyan Thanks Gohar for sharing your approach. Slow practice is a pretty amazing method! In addition to sustaining the bass notes for the required duration, I think legato playing requires a continuity of volume and tone that you handled very well. I understand there are times when your fingers simply can't hold a note, but you made it seem very connected.
I may be getting old, but I always considered Sharon Isben's rendition of this the definative version. But as new players come along they raise the bar, and you are certainly one of them. I would love to hear you explore and perform more baroque music -kind of like the way John Williams did with his "The Baroque Album" collection back in the day. Besides the usual suspects (lol) of Bach and Scarlatti, there are lots of little gems that are rarely played by world class players like you who have a spotlight and an opportunity to bring musical magic into this world. Roncalli and a lot of neglected works by S.L. Weis (outside of his suites or 'sonatas') come to mind. Wonderful performance! You never cease to impress! Much love....
Really outstanding performance of this beautiful music.. I have listened to a number of renditions of music from this suite (very few complete renditions) by top players on YT and this I have enjoyed the most. Incredible mental stamina, technique and and artistic integrity. Fine audio recording too.
Amazingly brilliant, I cant imagine how much practice it must have taken to be that good, massive respect to a beautiful piece played excellently, thank you for sharing.
Great job on this massive undertaking. This Bach masterpiece works wonderfully on the classical guitar. I played this prelude and fugue at my university final year recital 45 years ago!
There are no words to describes how beautiful this is part is. I'm working om my guitar to get at that level but this is hard working. Thank you for the upload!!
Es la mejor interpretación que escucho desde el 1978 de ésta swit de JSB! Muy clara y precisa y hermosa obra de arte musical clásico!!! Yo monté de oido el primer movimiento nota por nota!
Oh my! Stunning interpretation. I am sooo exited that i will see her preform in april in salt lake city. I am not different than a kid counting down to christmas. Such a gifted and pretty lady!
That's quite a disciplined tempo on the Prelude! It sounds as if you are hovering around 70 BPM which allows the piece to breathe. A bit of, wind between the trees if you will. Too often players rush thru the prelude and the subtleties get lost. That tempo pairs well with your phrasing. Thanks for uploading and sharing. Fantastic job.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it. I do like the prelude on the slower side, in contrast to the fugue which I prefer to play faster to sustain the voices, and connect them to each other better.
David, you're right. Ms Vardanyan tempo it's much better than other guitarists. Hers is an incredible performance. Makes me remember my time in the conservatory trying to play the prelude... Thanks Gohar Vardanyan, you're a true artist!
I no you to play guitar and give to US the quality pièce you play with passion and love music. I saw many guitarist on you tube your the best guirist in the world and very nice girl anf sensuel girl playing. Thank you very much for your commentaire on you tube for your lesson and technical for intermédiaire guitarist. Bernard Québec Canada xxxx
Beautifully played, very clean, with great sentiment and accents. Definitely world class, I don’t get tired of listening to it. Keep up the great work..!!!
Just WOW! And I agree, the fugue is not a cradle song or funeral march -type. Enormous architecture there, so as throughout the suite. Thank you & rokrok
Thanks a lot for sharing Gohar. I like this suite very much and in particular the gigue and the double. I think that your double is one of the best I ever heard. Great work. Thanks again.
It's a delight to hear your playing. I was amazed at the end during the double - your hand was moving so rapidly on the fretboard. I'd like to think Bach would have been impressed with this. You are a master of the guitar.
It’s a lot to memorize, I had the music open in front of me, just in case, and I definitely sneaked a peak a few times to make sure I don’t forget where I am haha 😂
GOHAR VARDANYAN: Você é de outro planeta; você é uma abençoada de DEUS! Você é a maior violonista-concertista clássica de todos os tempos do mundo! Você é a perfeição pura! DEUS te abençoe e te proteja hoje, amanhã e sempre! Te admiro e sou seu fã por toda a eternidade! Um ABRAÇO carinhoso!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍😍
La majestuosa y compleja sabiduría musical de Bach. Una impecable ejecución en la guitarra llevada a cabo con gran sensibilidad. Gracias por este momento mágico que de pronto ha llenado el espacio de belleza.
Fantastic performance ... thanks dear Gohar . I always love your works. Wish you the bests , i hope one day I can come to your concert and masterclass and whatch them💜💜💜 -Reyhan
I don't regularly get teary eyed listening to Bach, but the clarity of tone and depth of feeling in this gorgeous interpretation did it for me. World class.
Brava! Rarely does one hear Bach played with such intensity and soul. Truly marvelous performance.
How... on earth... can this have even a single dislike ?
Absolutely stunning... playing, recording, sound... it's got the whole bundle !!
Thank you!
Wow! What a fantastic performance!!!
Боже какая глубина, как правильно расставлены акценты, какая динамика невероятное исполнение!
Finally! You allow the music to breath and don't try to show off, a truly fantastic performance Gohar! STUNNING!
Bach forever in our hearts, and his musical depth Gohar
Beautiful.
amazing performance Gohar.... speechless.
Gitar med denne typen musikk må være for folk med stor tålmodighet. Men vakkert er det!
Upon reading further down in the comments I learned that she did have the score in front of her for certain passages. Her humility makes her all the more beautiful. She's a fantastic artist.
Sehr geehrte Frau Gohar Vardanyan! Danke für Ihr exzellentes Gitarren Spiel, da sind Sie aber wirklich gesegnet mit diesem Talent, lbg. Christine
This is the performance that makes you think this piece was actually written for classical guitar!
Great one!!

It is good to see you still putting music out. Thank you for sharing your music with the world. :)
This is really very very high level playing. Playing Bach is like riding a bike steeply downhill. ANY hesitation and you'll crash. Hard. Now try that with this tone and dynamics. Top level. Beautiful.
Beautiful!!, (and those bars at 6:49 in the fugue that gave me a hard time in my youth sound immaculate). 👏👏👏
Beautifully done, Gohar! 👏👏👏
Absolutely loved it! The tempo of the prelude is so appropriate, and the way you transition to the Fugue, which was breathtaking, and each movement after till the Double so immaculately done!
Bravo!!
Thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
This is my favourite. In Bach's music, things that are impossible to play on the guitar as written. But they can be wonderful if you play like you did. Fantastic performance!
The articulations are great, it's like I'm listening to 2 guitars. very good
I know I just posted - but upon listnening to to this for a second time? well this is just crazy good. The melody talking above the walking bass in the final movement is just killer. Wow...
Thank you for watching again!!! Bach is amazing, if you just play all the notes and bring them out in a linear fashion, his music does the rest ! 🥰
I see David Russell has just recorded this with people claiming it to be the definitive Bach, a new level never before seen in guitar playing ! Yours is better in my eyes, you should be recognised as world class along with top players like Williams, Russell and Barrueco. I am totally blown away by that performance !
Thank you that’s incredibly kind of you to say! I really love the music of Bach, it made all the hours spent on it worth it 😍
Love you johar.greàt playing.
You are truly wonderful guitarist. I haven't heard a better rendition of this piece. Brava!
Drew Hendersons may be
Nice performance, Gohar! At every point, you guided the listener’s attention through the beauty of this masterwork by Bach.
Thanks for listening! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Nice? She blows everyone else out of the water on this one! 😁
Einfach großartig, liebe Gohar so wohltuend, deine Musik, dein Spiel, für Herz und Gemüt, lbg. Christine
Some musicians are just more pleasant to look at play than others because of some small things they do. Maybe a facial expression maybe the way they move their hand. I think Gohar is such wonderful musician which makes viewed appreciate her face and eyes because of how they connect to the guitar.
This performance almost killed me becase i forgot to breath for 20 min. Great, impeacable. Absolutely love it
Thank you very much!!!! 🥰 But please please please breathe!!!! I don’t want to be responsible for the lost brain cells from lack of oxygen hahaha 🤣
Absolutely stunning performance Gohar !!!
Thank you Neil!!! 😁😁😁

Bach es tan difícil, y lo interpretas tan bien!!! Simplemente asombroso!!!

Ms. Vardanyan holds a Master of Music Degree from The Juilliard School where she studied with Sharon Isbin.
Che bello potere ascoltare questa bella interpretazione ! Magnifico!
I love your playing, not only the technical aspects of your playing, but your interpretation of every music you play is inspirational. Thank you 🙏🏼
A beautiful performance with superb expression and control. Thank you for this Gohar!

Maestra, you're living beauty.
Really Good!! I used to play the fugue and remember it being monstrously hard. She made it look easy.
Es la mejor interpretación que escucho desde el 1978 de ésta swit de JSB! Muy clara y precisa y hermosa obra de arte musical clásico!!! Yo monté de oido el primer movimiento nota por nota!
Une merveilleuse interprétation du génie Jean Sébastien Bach, bravo mademoiselle de nous faire partager votre passion ❤️🔥, de nous faire rêver 💭🌹🌹🌹
Wonderful performance & rendition!💕👍👍👍
Oh my! Stunning interpretation. I am sooo exited that i will see her preform in april in salt lake city. I am not different than a kid counting down to christmas. Such a gifted and pretty lady!
The music and the fall color of Indiana are treasures to behold.

Bach is smiling in heaven! Great performance!
...wow, che brava! Chapeau!
C’est absolument extraordinaire comme interprétation!👍
Bravo et quelle sonorité vous faite ma journée! Merci!😁🙏
Yes this is wonderful and looking forward to seeing Gohar in July in Cincinnati. Drew Hendersons version is pretty incredible too!
Hi Gohar
I am kissing your holly hands from far away(Australia)
Bach &Barrios&Albeniz,composites are just made for your playing
Grandios,as usual
👏👏👏
Skillful combination of left n right hands, so sentimental!
Thanks a lot for sharing Gohar. I like this suite very much and in particular the gigue and the double. I think that your double is one of the best I ever heard. Great work. Thanks again.
Thank you and it's my pleasure 😊 I'm glad you like it, it's my favorite suite out of the 4. That double is super fun to play :)
Gohar, you're my favourite classical guitarist. Your techinique and interpretation are amazing. Besides you are very charismatic.
Thank you!!
This is my favorite interpretation on RUclips so far! Thank you.
Thank you!
It's a delight to hear your playing. I was amazed at the end during the double - your hand was moving so rapidly on the fretboard. I'd like to think Bach would have been impressed with this. You are a master of the guitar.
Thank you! I love ❤️ Bach! Can’t get enough!
@@GoharVardanyan Gohar let’s be honest… if there was only one repertoire available for classical guitar, I’d want it to beJS Bach.
I don’t know how this could be played better. Superb!! Thank you this monumental effort. Excellent production on all levels!!
There is no way I could remember that much Bach at one time. WOW! Awesome!
It’s a lot to memorize, I had the music open in front of me, just in case, and I definitely sneaked a peak a few times to make sure I don’t forget where I am haha 😂
Che classe e eleganza sei bellissima e soprattutto bravissima è una meraviglia sentirti suonare,bye dall'Italia.👍✌😊
A lot of breathe a lot of soul, you play a living music!
Stupenda interpretazione : grande chitarrista ! Tecnica brillante ! Complimenti e grazie !
Great playing, as always, Ms. Vardanyan! That fugue looks about as fun for the left hand as being stretched out on a rack.
Perfection and Great Artistry. I had the opportunity to hear Gohar in concert recently on the University of RI campus. What an amazing concert.
Thank you very much!!!
One of the most super Bach pieces, superbly interpreted. Thank you, dear Gohar!
So lovely. Thanks for sharing it with us. I enjoyed it from start to finish.
