I feel like this is one of those very rare pieces of human creation that seems so impossibly perfect to be made by a human. But at the same time it is exactly so great because was made by a human and it possess all those very human emotions and it has a sort of awareness of incompleteness and human fragility, and at the same time it's expressing gratitude and acceptance. And exactly this is what makes it transcend itself above other music. It's so haunting to think that his piece was once a concept in someone's mind. A simply unparalleled piece.
I have been considering that recently. I am truly amazed by such an artist's playing. But to compose such a piece. I just can't wrap my mind around it.
Chaconne is the piece you take with you when earth is about to be destroyed and you have to jump in the spaceship and leave. From it one can recolonize music from earth. Damn! It is sublime❤
it is also the piece you play when the aliens come for us. you beg for one listen, that the audience be honest with their ears. if after the chaconne they are not moved to mercy, then so be it-- destroy us.
Brahms: “On one stave, for a small instrument, the man writes a whole world of the deepest thoughts and most powerful feelings. If I imagined that I could have created, even conceived the piece, I am quite certain that the excess of excitement and earth-shattering experience would have driven me out of my mind. If one doesn’t have the greatest violinist around, then it is well the most beautiful pleasure to simply listen to its sound in one’s mind.”
True and it one of the most difficuĺt to play. Mendelssohn remarked once that it is not possible to master the technic of this piece. And so, even many of the real great violonists did not reach the capacity of Heifetz. Bach wrote this piece in sadness when he returned home and was toldd that his wife had passed and had been burried. And still I feel there is a message in this piece saying: despite off all difficulties life is wonderful because there is the Divine presence.
Whenever I watch this, which is not that often because it hits hard, I think that it's probably the greatest video I've watched (and listened to) as to what being human is about
I loved Perlman’s interpretation of Chaconne. But Heifetz’s, for me, is God tier. His interpretation is kind of like what rage, desperation, longing and acceptance in the end sounds like. As for Perlman’s, it’s more on the sweet taste of loving someone and setting them free. It goes straight to acceptance. More like reminiscing the good memories, yes longing, but more on a positive light. Chaconne has always felt to me like the sound of betrayal by a loved one, the ache and the hurt that comes with it and still having love and hope for them despite.
Do you think that Bach meant something like love, longing or rage when he composed this piece? Or are these your random associations or interpretations?
I love how this dry and intimate recording allows the technical mastery and expressive delivery Heifetz brings to the Chaconne shine. So many recordings are done in acoustic spaces with longer reverb tails that don't allow the same type of performance. This shows off bow control in separate bow legato transitions is smooth as butter (example 3:23 ). In the best situation, the different acoustic spaces feel like a part of the instrument and the setting may subtly shape how to play a song. Of course, if you have been in High School Band playing in a closed stadium it can be tricky, and I appreciate the performers, sound engineers, and performers playing on a stage underground in a bar one day and the next in an amphitheater with concrete and stadium speakers. A great performance of Chaccone in a longer reverb performance is by Itzhak Perlman in his 1978 live recording where he played the pristine acoustics of Saint John's Smith Square, London. Perhaps one of my favorite moments for comparison is how Heifetz treats the variations of the bariolage towards the end: 11:11 - First, without harsh bowings, he keeps dynamics similar and lets the open string and slight tempo change develop that tension 11:21 - In the second variation, the A at the tip of the bow begins delicate and softer, with the repeated A remaining in the background as he brings out phrasing clearly in the prominent double stops. The ease with that he performs this is to quote a user below "God-tier". To compare. Perlman's performance of this passage really allows some of those single notes to sing out into the space and it is beautiful that they come through so clearly. (ruclips.net/video/qtyTaE7LvVs/видео.html) -- I don't know if Heifetz's performance would have worked here, my thoughts are no. However, I have heard artificial reverb added and I hope that never happens again.). It is understandable why this piece has been played on so many instruments, and ensembles, and why it is so loved. I hope my links work! (edits fixing links timings)
There is no word to describe J.S. Bach but he was a mastermind complete genius of the whole universe of music. Heifetz the greatest violinist since Paganini no other words to describe Heifetz than genius and the greatest virtuoso. When you put Bach and Heifetz together 🤯🤯🤯😮😌😌😌😃😄😁
A brilliant, iconic, performance that captures every nuance of this miraculous work. Heifitz's wondrous bowing technique is truly awe inspiring. The Chaconne sings out as if from heaven.
"Heifetz's violin performance is absolutely mesmerizing! The way they effortlessly draw emotions from the strings is truly incredible. Their technique and passion shine through in every note. I could listen to this over and over again."
A performance of superb musicality and power within the constraints of the chaconne form. Thank you to the Jascha Heifetz Estate for making this available on RUclips.
His solos sound orchestral, the sounds he creates are mind bending. I just discovered him in the 1947 film Carnegie Hall with Marsha Hunt, his performance is a must see if you are a fan.
For me, Heifetz's version of chaconne shows a longing for someone while remembering the passionate times they spent, and for me, it also shows a raging emotion of a person that can not move on from his loss. On the other hand, Perlman's version seems to express the intimacy that the lovers experienced and the bittersweet feeling of goodbyes. Hilary's version fully expresses the grief caused by the loss of a beloved person.
Wait till you find ivry gitlis’ standing alone on that stage slightly out of pitch and recognize the diversity of this piece. Heifetz is noble. Uplifting. Whimsical and tiring in losing age. Ivry is the complete opposite. Drawing on your soul as if you are ripped away from all the standards of humanity to know the reality of how tragic this piece is.
Listening to this today was truly a transcendental experience. The purity of this piece by Bach especially played by Heifetz, was overwhelming. I found myself totally riveted to every movement of Heifetz, completely absorbed in the mind of Bach and at one point I was so overcome with emotion, that I started crying uncontrollably. The beauty of the music touched me very deeply and profoundly. There are other recordings of the Chaconne, but none matches, in my opinion, Heifetz.
Jascha Heifetz has really interpreted Bach to an extent like no others before. Combined with his impeccable dexterity, it will always hold true that he is one of the best violinists ever. Also, I love his old-school and bold approach to Bach, using vibratos which modern violinists no longer use when playing Bach.
@@artazure That is amazing. He is the greatest violinist of all time. Take notes. And oh… Scales. Everyday. Arpeggios, Fingered Octaves.. Do It….EVERYDAY
The strings are silent without Heifitz. Someone once told him his violin had a lovely sound . He silently put it up to his ear and said. “I don’t hear any sound”
The epitome of musical perfection, absolute and unparalleled skill. The emotion and intent behind each stroke of the bow and slide of the fingers across the strings are so beautiful, the expressiveness is as if it were a voice talking. Wonderful!
I love the moment at 2:23 when Heifitz plays a wrong note (two Fs instead of E then F), because it shows how even Heifitz, probably the greatest violinist to ever live, still makes mistakes. And, the way he hides his mistake is amazing, he continues on without hesitation and seamlessly blends the wrong note into the rest of the piece.
a great performance reminiscent of his 1930's recording that was also like white light/white heat. Heifetz recreates this immortal cathedral of sound with a rhythmic forward propulsion quite different than dozens of other violinists. All in one take, live!
@PewDiePie Official He actually didn’t use a shoulder rest. I know a number of his students and people that played with him and they all agree on that.
not exacly. i noticed he hit the adjacent string he shouldn't one single time while playing a passage (can you ghess where? it even sounded out of tune because of this!). other than that, yes, perfect!
I like the sound of Heifetz. I think there are various opinions about the charm of his performance, but I think that his tone is the origin of the charm. Even among violinists, he doesn't seem to be the type to play so emotionally, but maybe that's why when I listen to his tone, there's something that appeals to my feelings, and I'm struck by it every time. The same goes for this Chaconne, a word that is absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, his last concert was before I was born, but I definitely wanted to listen to him perform live.
Bach played the violin, but how could he deal with this piece? Brahms said that it would have driven him insane to have conceived such a piece of music.

@@M_SC If Brahms said he would have been driven insane if he had conceived such a piece of music... (which I think is divine)...I think of the many Brahms pieces I've heard... and kind of understand why I have never been moved by his music. Clearer? Cheers!
Heifetz really brings Bach's emotion alive. Strong forte, delicate piano, Huge dynamics. Sounds like music from Heaven.
It IS from Heaven
I strongly agree

Heifetz. A tornado bottled neatly. He is my absolute favourite when it comes to Bach. Perfect.

Heifetz was the greatest violinist of the 20th century.
