Wow! Simone, I loved your performance of such an inspiring piece of music. I am deeply touched, moved and very thankful to have heard such an uplifting theme.
No words to describe what you and Bach have done.
I just started playing through this score 4 days ago and am taken over by it. Playing these simple notes is more emotional and cathartic than hearing it.
Thank you so much for this performance. God bless.
Diese Frau ist nicht nur Bildhübsch.Sie hat ein unerträglich schönes Gefühl für Musik.
Grazie per questa esecuzione fantastica e grazie a Bach per questi suoni che rendono la vita degna con onore di essere vissuta
Beautiful!
I like what you said "This music is greater than it's time, greater than Bach could have understood it to be." I can't figure out why whenever I stumble across this piece on a recording or find the sheet music I play, listen, and study it for hours tirelessly. This piece is it's own universe.
From a divine entity, to JS Bach, to Simone Dinnerstein. Indescribably gorgeous.
Glad you too expect music of Bach to be moving emotionally
Bach, the Baroque and the Enlightenment serve as indisputable proof that mankind is at its best when seeking to find or understand God, whether God exists or not. It is about the journey and not the destination. Reductionist rationalism only motivates production; belief motivates creation.
Great arrangement of Bach by Myra Hess.
Love the emotion that you put into this piece, simply beautiful
Simone, You have started a conversation. I heard that Bach dedicated all his writing to God. To me that means he was aiming to connect to the highest ideal he understood and I think it worked for him. What ever he thought, he got good results. Thank you for your music.
I simultaneously share your articulated view and yet feel tension against it. Bach *worshiped and experienced God as a personal, interactive connection -- even as a personality* (e.g., as so deeply reflected at the end of the St. Matthew passion; and in the many chorales, etc.). That's a different experience from us post-Enlightenment modernists who, as you put it, "aim to connect to the highest ideal [we] underst[and]." I fear sometimes that unless one takes some kind of Kirkegaardian leap in an attempt to worship and commune with a *personality,* one cannot hope to achieve heights near those of Bach.
WONDERFUL!A TRULY GREAT MUSICIAN!
Daring is good for music
Great
Just exquisite...
don't cry, it'll be okay ;P
love this piece. beautiful!
"Why is it always that people, when they cannot grasp the genius of somebody, have the desperate need to ascribe it to something else, something "higher", or a god?!"
Maybe because Bach's music was inspired by God and because he dedicated all of it to God?
Bach was such a fool, eh, compared to the brilliant you? Because it wasn't just these fools who "cannot grasp the genius" who have a "desperate need to ascribe it to something else, something 'higher'", it was also Bach - oh, except he wasn't "desperate" like we common idiots. But above all of us is you with your deep understanding. Too bad Bach didn't have you at his side to talk him out of his delusion, eh?
When a nucleus decays, what makes the decision that it will happen when it does?
Your apparent belief that you understand reality well enough to declare faith in God a delusion, is, in itself a delusion. Dawkins isn't nearly as smart as his followers believe. He has no understanding of the concept of randomness, for example, declaring that if God is the Watchmaker responsible for the mutations of evolution, then he must be a blind watchmaker, since these mutations occur randomly. Yet when we encode a message on a one time pad with a random key, the ciphertext is completely random (XOR a random bit with a message bit, the result is random). An interceptor (scientists) can find no order in it, yet the ciphertext can direct the intended receiver with intent and precision. The sender is certainly not blind, except in the mind of a poor thinker.
This is not a proof that God exists, but a proof that Dawkins is not a 'bright', as he dubs himself, but a 'dim', so stop following him. I am his intellectual superior.
You also do not understand what a 'gap' worthy of mockery is. Behe's Intelligent designer of "irreducible complexity" is a 'god of the gaps' whose argument is the equivalent of a 'proof' that Jim didn't drive from LA to New York because he can't remember which slot he parked in when he stopped for his 3rd break. The theory admits no such gap and Behe is ridiculous. OTOH, have you ever heard of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle? The 'gap' is part of the theory and no one thinks its going away.
But I do not postulate that God acts through this 'gap'. I just point out that you cannot prove that he does not and that if you think you've got some kind of case that you can - well, again, it is you who is deluded.
Read C.S. Lewis's "The Silver Chair." If you're as smart as you appear to be, you'll "get" it. Note especially what Puddleglum the Marshwiggle tell the Queen of the Underworld.
Yes. I have read that book. Puddleglum is a believer in truth, goodness, and love.
Puddleglum also believed in Aslan: “One word, Ma'am," he said, coming back from the fire; limping, because of the pain. "One word. All you've been saying is quite right, I shouldn't wonder. I'm a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won't deny any of what you said. But there's one more thing to be said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things-trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that's a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We're just babies making up a game, if you're right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world which licks your real world hollow. That's why I'm going to stand by the play world. I'm on Aslan's side even if there isn't any Aslan to lead it. I'm going to live as like a Narnian as I can even if there isn't any Narnia. So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we're leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for Overland. Not that our lives will be very long, I should think; but that's a small loss if the world's as dull a place as you say.” (C.S. Lewis; The Silver Chair)
Bach, the fifth Evangelist
Tremendous
Wunderbare Ruhe, aber zu viel Pedal. Wenn man zum Vergleich die genialische Interpretationen von Lipatti und Fleisher hört, wird deutlich, was fehlt.
Stop bickering and listen to the music. None of you knew Bach. So who is to say what he was or wasn't?
She should just play and forget about talking.
And you should just listen and keep your opinions to yourself.
