One of my favourite pieces. It was performed for the first time right here in Vienna in 1828, not so far from where I live. Schubert's Ständchen (Serenade). 😊 Subscribe: ruclips.net/user/almadeutscher By the way, since many people have asked: I use the wonderful DOLFINOS shoulder-rest system.
Each and ev'ry time Alma Deutscher posts a new piece of music, no matter how short, I realise how lucky we are to witness the brilliance of this lovely young lady. She spreads happiness all around her. We, as listeners, indeed are lucky.....
At first I didn't even realize it was Alma on the piano. At first I was thinking her and her friend both wore red. And then I thought maybe Alma cut her hair to match same length of her friends hair because they are best friends and want to have same hair length. Then when it zoomed in on the pianist I was like wait a minute...that's Alma!!!! Isn't that crazy I didn't recognize at first?!!!!
So beautifull played its like she lived many lives already ( imagine Schubert himself could hear this i think he would cry from happiness) Alma is not of this world just unbelievable what she does! Thank you so much Alma you are the purest soul i ever have seen! what a honour for me to live in the same time you live
The violin is the only instrument that can truly touch my heart…I remember visiting France as a young man and in the many back streets of Paris I stumbled upon an old Jewish busker and he played “Yiddisha mama” and he played with such feeling I burst into tears I will never forget him I’m sure he is with the Ángels now playing his violin.
Alma plays Shubert Schumann plays Robert Hearken to tunes divine For lonely Tree of Pine Give an ear to Deutscher And to those who taught her Violin - Dew of Immortality Piano - Heart of Vitality Playing with her best friend Self-knowledge is a trend To banish the darkness To usurp the starkness!
I love the way Ms. Deutscher interpreted this Schubert's Serenade with such a sweet air of melancholy, depth and full of emotion. Other violinists (even the great Anne Sophie Mutter and Izahak Perlman) seem to play with too much sweetness and make this serenade overly romantic. It seems to me the lower voices of cello (Camille Thomas and Beautrice Berrut), viola (Carr-Petrova Duo) and sucj vocalist as Peter Schreier and Fischer Dieskau suite this melody better. While checking others play this music, I notice they start the first part low and move up to high when they play the second part, which is opposite to what Ms. Deutscher did. I feel Ms. Deutscher's version evokes a feeling of sweetness, melancholy and longing much more effectively in telling a story. It's not one dimensional. How she can make her violin sing with so much emotion!
I wonder if most of the commenters realize how difficult it is to achieve that perfect of intonation throughout, especially on the double-stops. Amazing precision, yet played with so much mature musicality too.
Alma, you are literally an angel. An old soul from an earlier age in music. And a welcome one. Thank you Alma. Your gifts have given us hope and music, through truly difficult times.
Not only are you a fine composer, a lovely interpreter. Beautifully and so sweetly played, thank you. You have such gifts, so generous that you share them
Your violin sounds wonderful, it is singing like a human voice, full of natural feeling! Your piano is singing together with the violin. Your interpretation is pure and fine. Thank you many times!
I've loved Schubert for as long as I can remember (and that's a long time). In college, my music-majoring friends told me, "forget it, Rick, Schubert's derivative, unoriginal, didn't move music forward." I feel so vindicated every time I hear such a rare talent and brilliant mind as Alma Deutscher's championing Schubert's music.
Thank you sooooo much Miss Alma Deuscher! I have just got home after a long shift and sitting for dinner at 23.00hrs and there you are. You are truly amazing and bring so much joy with your talents, we are blessed. May you continue to shine always. God Bless you. ;-))
Your friend seems just as nice as you, Alma! :) Beautiful performances from 'both of you' in this delightful rendition. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
Absolutely wonderful Alma. Loving the vibrato and doublestops. Keep up the good work and the whole world will eventually see your brilliance. I'm sure of it.
Brilliant young woman ! Ive watched you since age 8 There is no stopping you- full of talent to share with the world You’re an absolute delight . Bravo Alma……💓🎻💓
Very well done Schubert would have greatly approved. Greetings from the far South of South Africa, and I wish you success with your musical career. Your heart is in it. You can bring it really far.
Most beautiful! Thank you Alma. I am looking forward to seeing you play in person again. I was at Carnegie Hall. When I listen to you my heart soars it's indescribable.

What a gift it is to be alive in the same lifetime and witness this. I hope to see her perform live one day.
Even at 79 years old I love music. What a joy to know God has put one of His music portals on this earth to bring beauty and serenity back.
Blessings on our hearing and blessed we indeed are to hear such angels bringing music to this earthly plane.
Alma, you are a light that shines through the darkness of this world. Never stop pursuing and BEING that which is good and beautiful. God bless you.
Thank you 🙏🏾 so true

Your friend looks strangely familiar ;) - Beautiful play, with lot of emotions, thank you!

@@christsservant5472 i was thinking that's her sister
It's Alma
@@christsservant5472 it said “Duet with myself”in the title
You two have great chemistry, almost like a single mind
😄
uncanny similarity... the face, the personality!!!😁😁😁
I'm so glad they found each other. I look forward to everything they perform!
So beautifull played its like she lived many lives already ( imagine Schubert himself could hear this i think he would cry from happiness) Alma is not of this world just unbelievable what she does! Thank you so much Alma you are the purest soul i ever have seen! what a honour for me to live in the same time you live
AlmaP and AlmaV get on very well. They are obviously good Franz.
Alma, excelent. Congratulations. Beatifull interpretation. Your sister very good too.
Dear Alma you are a sunshine in this dark world. God bless you daughter, Suat Turkey
that violin is beautiful!
If the world could only have 2 Alma’s….I don’t think we could take that much beauty!
San Angelo, Texas, USA here 🍾🍾🍾 325
Been a fan for years. Sorry I'm late.

i think the song is good 🙂
Wow!!! Amazing story!! Thanks for sharing
i have been watching this girl since she was tiny. Child prodigy for sure. This is one of my favorite classical pieces
...hat doch prima geklappt...dafür, dass ihr das erst mal zusammen gespielt habt ;-)....
I like your little friend, she's very good on the piano :-)
Oh, I love Schubert"s Ständchen! Ich höre die Nachtigallen. Thank you for the musical offering.
Alma plays Shubert
Schumann plays Robert
Hearken to tunes divine
For lonely Tree of Pine
Give an ear to Deutscher
And to those who taught her
Violin - Dew of Immortality
Piano - Heart of Vitality
Playing with her best friend
Self-knowledge is a trend
To banish the darkness
To usurp the starkness!
ahhhhh Schubert!
Thank you Alma, you are a beacon of light in this planet!
I'd say the two of you got on famously! That was so lovely. Encore please!

I totally agree with your analysis!
See Alma's emotions when she plays something of beauty, so full of joy that she is beside herself.
you look like good friends...
and nice filming and editing!
tnx
lololol. I think they are the best of friends and are always together! lol
So beautifully and straightforwardly done, without any false sentiment. Thank you!
D'accordo con te Alma, Schubert's Ständchen è una musica meravigliosa... !!
Thank you wonderful!
Flawless double-stopping - loved the whole thing!

@@heathrusty for real. I didn't know she played the violin. I was expecting to hear the quality of a secondary instrument, but just WHAT IS THIS?
Alma, you are literally an angel. An old soul from an earlier age in music. And a welcome one.
Thank you Alma. Your gifts have given us hope and music, through truly difficult times.
omg,yes my pupils ,age between 6 and 25 are also "old souls"because they like playing Mozart, Beethoven, Bach ,Chopin,and other "old souls"...!
Not only are you a fine composer, a lovely interpreter. Beautifully and so sweetly played, thank you. You have such gifts, so generous that you share them
You are a lovely young woman Alma and gifted with many blessings. May it ever be so.
So very beautiful!
Thanks a lot Alma!!! thank you very much I really enjoyed your sweet and beautiful interpretation.
thank you Alma!!
Your violin sounds wonderful, it is singing like a human voice, full of natural feeling! Your piano is singing together with the violin. Your interpretation is pure and fine. Thank you many times!
it's impossible not love you and the wonderfull music you write ! Also it's impossible not love how you interpretate other composers!!!
I've loved Schubert for as long as I can remember (and that's a long time). In college, my music-majoring friends told me, "forget it, Rick, Schubert's derivative, unoriginal, didn't move music forward."
I feel so vindicated every time I hear such a rare talent and brilliant mind as Alma Deutscher's championing Schubert's music.
I hope they opened their minds and hearts! You were correct that he was wonderful and Alma proves it again, as you say.
I just discover your channel. This is pure joy for the heart. Thank you very much.
