I had the privilege of singing Bach with small ensemble and I'll never forget the advice from 1st Violin: you know it's right when your entrances are at the same level as the solo violin, as though you are just another instrument. Leave that ego at the door...
Ever since I saw Damien Guillion perform this live this is the only performance of Erbarme Dich for me :). Goosebumps every time. Crying very often :).
Unglaublich schöne Interpretation meiner Lieblings-Arie - ich bedanke mich ganz herzlich bei diesem wundervollen und begnadeten Sänger Damien Guillon. Genau so muss es gesungen und gefühlt werden - Gänsehaut!
c'è in questo Artista un dominio del pathos di questa invocazione che rende leggero lo stupore : come la Voce risuoni in tutto il corpo e senza portamenti che rende giustizia al canto monodico Gregoriano radice del verbo sacro che accoglie la richiesta di perdono...straordinaria la parte musicale.
Le pur velours du violon, la justesse de Ph. Herreweghe dans une cadence très mesurée et, enfin l'interprétation de D.Guillon donnent à ce magnifique aria, toute son hégémonie. Tant d'autres étant dans la démonstration. Ce qui est dommage pour cette oeuvre magistrale jamais égalée de tous les temps. Cette Passion est sublîme.
Sophie Gent makes such a flawless performance. Emotional yet humble, subtle and profound, perflectly in sync Damien Guillon, she goes so well with the flow of the piece. It just really feats the theme of the song. I cannot keep my eyes off of her.
"There is something transcendent about Bach's music. It doesn't matter if you're an atheist or a Jew; as any educated member of western society, it's in our blood-stream. The drama is something that, time and time again, never ceases to surprise. The crouching clergy-man would say, 'it never fails, and the reason it never fails is because it has an eternal truth. Truth is religious and you are yielding to it because you are resisting the religious belief that is in you.' (continued)
What an excellent interpretation , I much prefer his voice to the feminine contralto , such depth , sensitivity , a real soul connection with the violin, the tempo is in in harmony , thank you Damien Guillon
Con gli anni sempre ritorno ad ascoltare questa manifica versione e continuo dire: Damien! Veramente sei grande!!! Violinista è molto brava, è un violino stupendo. Non mi sorprende se di un italiano. Bravissimi e grazie!!!
Yo creo que el Gran Bach ha de haber llorado mientras escribía esta maravilla. Realmente plasmó la súplica, el dolor, la angustia, de un momento terrible. Johann Sebastian Bach no era de este mundo, no tengo dudas de eso.
Sublime !.. Quelle finesse... Entendu hier à Toulouse avec le "Collegium Marianum" de Prague dans le Lamentationes Jeremiae de J.D.Zelenka. Très applaudi.
Truer than ever!Fantastic countertenor, beautifully sensitive violinist. So many versions of this sublime piece. Wonder what JSB would Make of them all.
At last a performance that allows a proper balance between the soloist and the violin. Most egotistic soloists suppress the violin in their recordings. The music requires a dialog between them.
Try listening to Hamari's version. You can't escape the ever-escalating race between the alto and the first violin, with Hamari's overuse of vibrato and just plain being too loud and the violinist thinking he owns the piece. With Herreweghe's style of sticking to era instruments and the subtleness of Guillon and the first violin, this is a much, much better version.
Erbarme dich: Belleza en estado puro. Hay otras interpretaciones excelentes de esta aria, pero, personalmente, me quedo con esta de Demien Guillon. A mi juicio, la sobriedad que le imprime resalta especialmente la emoción, el dolor, del arrepentimiento de Pedro.
Erbarme dich: Beauty in its purest form. There are other excellent interpretations of this aria, but, personally, I prefer this one by Demien Guillon. In my opinion, the sobriety that he vocalises emphasizes especially the emotion, the pain, of Peter's repentance
I agree 100%. You could also listen to Eddy Hazel's song "from the bottom of my soul". It will give you that same experience like it does to me when you let it come in. ruclips.net/video/T50UmHwGeSI/видео.htmlsi=c6SqPnwV1AHzgLsN
I rarely heard such a voice ... just so Bach has to sing! Just like this .. My friend, as well as I is a musician, and he finds it just as wonderful .. This voice is just as it must be. I can only emphasize that the brook was probably proud of this man!
...Se puso a maldecir y a jurar: ¡No conozco a ese hombre! Y al instante cantó el gallo. Entonces se acordó de las palabras que Jesús le había dicho: "Pedro, antes de que cante el gallo, me negarás tres veces". Y, saliendo afuera, lloró amargamente. Ten piedad de mí, Dios mío, advierte mi llanto. Mira mi corazón y mis ojos que lloran amargamente ante Ti. ¡Ten piedad de mí!
My favourite violinist version of Erbarme Dich Beautiful tone, pitch and such good dignified timing without snatching at the short notes
Yes, the violino was what catched my attention at first
Perche’ e’ cosi’ difficile parlare con te ?♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

The most beautiful version I've ever heard. Damien Guillon's voice is heavenly, the orchestra is more than great, the violin is devine.
Yes! Me too!
No, It is not, Otto Büchner and Julia Hamari is far the best ! ItsThe Zenit
I agree ❤️ with you.
@@leoguerra4516I couldn’t agree more!!!
@@rustemmustafa81doesn’t matter, I still think it sounds much better!
Damien Guillon's voice is sublime. Herreweghe's interpretation of the Passion is unmatched.
it is pale and weak, without any timbre
Michael Chance's interpretation beats this performance by a mile...
Agreed!
It's absolutely my favourite too❣️
Ever since I saw Damien Guillion perform this live this is the only performance of Erbarme Dich for me :). Goosebumps every time. Crying very often :).

I'm done, this is too good, too smooth, just awesome, heartbreaking part of the matthäus passion, fell in love with Bach nowadays. Genius!
I'm speechless. This is by far the best version I found on the internet.
OK, check out M. Kozenà ;-)
for me too
tastes differ...
His voice is flatter and thinner than that of Andreas Scholl ruclips.net/video/YszmEsvI6h8/видео.html
Scholl is better
One of the best performances ever heard. This is the piece of my life.
the best performance of " erbarme dich" for me is from Natalie Stutzmann
Wooo Woo p
Listen to Michael Chance's version and then give it a second thought
Welch ein klare Stimme, eine Countertenorstimme der Extraklasse !
Thank you for this beautiful version.
Planet Earth is so much richer because it was visited by JS Bach - and, of course, artistes such as these.
Bach was almost lost forever!
David Brown pas
and first violonist is an angel ;)
Oh shut up you sickening nauseating twat. Visited this earth...what a 70 yr all in package holiday to live like the natives.

Une voix un compositeur une œuvre et on bascule dans un monde plus serein.... Merci à vous d exister...
Ein göttlicher Gesang. Vor ca. 20 Jahren hat Andreas Scholl so gesungen - wie ein Engel…
Musique divine de js bach ....interpretation a la hauteur de la divinté ...elle vibre l'Amour .....mercis ❤
beautiful violin player and extremely sharp voice , really beautiful combination which gives a live to this bach's piece
I have heard this version and others so many times... Still the most breathtaking of all.

Could that be love?
yes! hers is among the very best. menhuin called it the most beautiful thing ever written for the violin - he would be pleased i think
@TheSauce Group That edit is hilarious. What's happening, a bad day ?
Amongst the most beautiful versions I've heard - I was riveted!

@Corona Joe It's not my quote
Finish the quote, please
Still the most engaging version I've heard. It opens my heart every time I hear it.
What an excellent interpretation , I much prefer his voice to the feminine contralto , such depth , sensitivity , a real soul connection with the violin, the tempo is in in harmony , thank you Damien Guillon
This is such a lovely performance. Beautifully controlled yet heartfelt singing.
Erbarme dich, mein Gott,
Um meiner Zähren willen.
Schaue hier,
Herz und Auge
Weint vor dir bitterlich.
Erbarme dich!
Grazie infinite
❤️danke
¡Damien Guillon: una de las voces más perfectas de los contratenores modernos!

This recording still gives me chills every time. Astoundingly beautiful
extraordinaire damien guillon voix céleste qui nous transporte vers des sommets d émotion on est subjugué par votre immense talent merci on vous aime
Damien Guillon ❤❤❤❤ el millor, el meu preferit
Much as I love many versions, I always love this passage to be in the voice of a counter tenor
I could not agree more!
Is it Peter's repentance? If so, a male voice makes sense.
The first violist performs with majesty and the serious decorum that the piece deserve. She is also very beautiful.
soprannaturale, meraviglioso, padronanza e controllo del suono, della voce, perfezione. grazie
Voix et violon sublime interprétation, terriblement émouvante... Merci !
Absolutely bewitched by this stunning performance.
Gisteravond deze Damien Guillion live gezien in het concertgebouw Amsterdam, en hij is werkelijk fenomenaal :). Ik ben fan!
Such a beautiful timbre! Beautiful voice!
So beautiful, every tone hits perfectly its note - wonder if J.S.Bach ever heard such almost like heavenly singing.
My favorite version in the world
The best voice, conductor, violin and orchestra! I love Bach for ever and ever, he es the music’s father
This is by far the most beautiful rendition I have ever heard. What a voice from heaven, wow, my god ...wow
Gillion song the best version ever and makes me cry everytime i listen
So beautiful! Sophie Gent, perfect as always!
Realmente conmovedora esta pieza. No importa cuántas veces la escuché; siempre me deja sin respiración.
Una voz preciosa la de Guillon.
La voix un don de Dieu les voix »justes » nous enchantent et nous emmènent au Cœur de Nous-mêmes !
So beautiful.
J'ai decouvert Damien Guillon, c'est vraiment tres beau, parfait meme. Bravo
Herreweghe always sets the right mood.
So beautiful 🙏✨
A most esquisite, moving performance!...a perfect balance of voice, violin and continuo....ravishing!
Gracias Damien, gracias Philippe y gracias violinista.
what a perfect breath control!!!! I find it sooo hard to sing these long phrases
Sublime !.. Quelle finesse...

Beautiful voice..
This was by far the best version ive ever hear, very moving.... Agree with the top comment...

Senza parole, la migliore esecuzione mai sentita

Божественно красиво.Это лучшее исполнение

Eccellente esecuzione violino solista e Voce Angelica!!Top of my listen about the Passione!!

A truly gorgeous interpretation! Thank you for posting!
Sie haben ein wunderschöne Stimme ...
Many thanks. Absolutely beautiful!

O so sublime. I did not want it to end so played it over and over. This is a very fine version, so clear and hauntingly beautiful. Love Bach.
So pure, so sweet. Goosebumps!
Beautiful. Note perfect. Not too showy, but with enough ornamentation.
Hermoso y conmovedor, gracias

This piece touches the bottom of my soul. It's the heart of the "Passion..."
Sublime performance

Godgiven talented all of them. Danke.

Sublime, divino.
Необыкновенно красивый тембр - это прекрасно !
Magnifique interprétation pleine de douceur
Without any doubt one of the most touching pieces ever written. I love how Tarkovsky uses it in his movies.
this violin theme is everything
Wunderbar das Zusammenspiel und der Klang der Geige und der Stimme !
Eine herrliche Musik,
I'd never heard a bloke doing it before.
Groovtastic!
Der reine Klang dieser Stimme ist unübertroffen.
le plus beau morceau du monde, rien ne dépassera ce morceau
Simply beautiful
Excellent, great voice so adequate
