David Oistrakh - Bach Violin Concerto in A minor (1st mvt.)

[@violinstudy]

OMG who could possible give this video a thumbs down? It's David Oistrakh playing Bach for goodness sake. It's heaven.

[@kcherrytree1]

Thank you so much for uploading this wonderful Oistrach clip ... even all these years since his death and I fall in love each time with the warmth and perfection of his playing.

[@rusconiroberto]

David Oistrak is the best and my son is playing it right now and is pretty good. David is the best and his sound breakes my heart .

[@scuunjieng]

his recording has been my favorite for over 40 years since i first encountered it as a teenager. Many thanks for posting a video of an artist i was never able to watch live

[@alexisebarton]

I played this for Indiana's Solo and Ensemble competition, and I took it to state yesterday. I got gold! The judge left me a comment saying she had listened to this piece several times, and I was the first one that played it like Bach. :)

[@justamusician7846]

You sure? If you received such a positive comment, I guess you used a baroque bow and baroque phrasing, the gut strings are optional. Because playing Bach like Bach isn't playing Bach like Oistrakh or Menuhin or Gitlis

[@ShirleyKirsten]

Will always be the greatest violinist of all time!

[@metalheadlass]

Bach and Vivaldi are truly the best Baroques...David Oistrakh is unimaginably talented and graceful.

[@VladislavGomulka]

In 1967 I met D. Oistrach. He was a simple, very decent and very modest man.

[@junevi2000]

David Oistrakh is my idol. He is the only one player who emotes certainty, power, energy, precision. He is a towering figure of 20th century music.

[@grettastankevich6066]

Благодарю Вас за сохраненные видео.Это великолепно.Горда тем,что моя Одесса рождала такие таланты.

[@alleycat516]

Bach's music is the sole true proof of the existence of Bach.

[@dementeur]

точно в такива моменти се радвам, че съм човек, а не добитък. великолепие!!!

[@imuh3]

It's amazing how the solo and the orchestra seem to fit together like a puzzle - they blend into the perfect musical masterpiece!

[@ZZZ33W]

Simply the best.

[@khool63]

oistrakh jouait comme il respirait ,, l'archet n'avait plus besoin de sa main , une force supèrieure ineffable , enlaçait l'instrument et l'archet , au loin l'ombre du cantor majestueuse et humble à la fois , errait si haut dans les étoiles en appréciant oistrakh exécuter ses propres créations ,,

[@heloisefleury8188]

C'EST tellement vrai

[@musicmaria8]

Like is not enough for this masterpiece! Absolutely amazing!!!❤️🎻🎶

[@menusis]

Oistrakh es un gigante del instrumento. Amo Mozart pero a Bach no hay cómo superarlo

[@mfrazie]

I have this exact performance on CD and I've listened to it hundreds of times. It's a little weird seeing it played so long ago, but I think this is--by far--the best interpretation of this piece. Most lead violinists I've listen to play Bach's violin concertos way too fast. If you can, buy the CD of this performance. It's the best CD I've ever purchased.

[@grig19799]

I wonder who are those 3% who disliked this performance. This is simply gorgeous.

[@samg8761]

The great David Oistrakh, always the greatest !! ty for posting!

[@averagemediaenjoyer2161]

Imho this is the perfect tempo at which this piece should be played. :)

[@boitjie]

Abhirami G. Laughing my hat off?

[@zsuzsabartha5852]

Well this piece should be played a little bit more slow

[@marieking8858]

[@metalheadlass]

dolcissimo! bach is such a phenomenon...one of a kind...David Oistrakh has a sure technique...very impressive

[@JuanMartinexplacerez-mw3we]

Brillante ejecución ; el Legendario Violinista David Oistrakh ; interpreta el Primer Movimiento del Concierto con una Magistral Maestría . Solo escuchar su maravilloso sonido , fraseo y excelente estilo lo hace ser por siempre un Violinista EXCEPCIONAL . BRAVO

[@Villainess1]

There is no doubt about it - The music of Bach is Divinely inspired, and his gift came from God If that offends someone then they don't truly appreciate his music

[@klmnps]

He pushed the the tempo down as he started playing as if he was not happy with the original tempo. What an authority. Great player.

[@ashlieshi5486]

klmnps are you being sarcastic or??

[@klmnps]

@@ashlieshi5486 no it is what happening, he pushes the tempo down

[@fei8075]

How much?

[@ashlieshi5486]

One of the most amazing pieces in the world deserves an amazing player, and Oistrakh did it all😍

[@justpassingthruuu]

I can't believe my eyes, there was an empty seat...

[@byrusmx]

what a beautiful song!!! i love violin's sound!!!

[@violinfanaticEM]

its a grade 8, I'm doing my exam in a few months and this is one of my pieces.. lovely song. Fabulous. You only have to do the first movement, not the second or third.

[@hannici]

very very very good...never heard it with this accuracy as oistrakh is creating here...he feel`s it so much

[@norichka777]

ふくよかで、まろやかな音だなあ！ 生を聞きたかったですね。

[@greatbigmonkeys]

beautiful. David Oistrakh was a great musician

[@rcottam]

I love this. Thank you for posting it - it gives me great hope and pleasure.

[@genmaximus110]

Bach's pieces have been performed so many ways. 1060 has been done with a violin and an oboe, 2 violins, 2 harpsichords, a panflute and a violin. I'm sure the list just goes on and on.

[@veronja_cit]

Я вообще другими штрихами играю👍👍👍. Шикарно играет !!!!!! Обожаю Ойстраха ❤️❤️❤️

[@ComposerTS]

Very nice. I somewhat reminds me of a homely living room. I also like the playing of the orchestra, very clear.

[@clschaub]

It is the New York State School Musicians Associan. Its like a solo festival for kids who are serious about musical instrumuents and voice. They play some sclaes and sight read and have to play a solo piece in one of the six levels. This one is a level 5.

[@Jasonwu100]

best version on youtube

[@rusconiroberto]

This guy is the best ever. He playes like god and is ten times better or more then other musiciants. he owners all others and has a sound that nobody could and had ever have, because he is the pro.

[@elesgermuxtarov1972]

it is just perfect.

[@wrexhamjack123]

Me too, if anything it's more slow than fast. Defininitely not rushing. Such a beautiful piece of music and this violinst is as clear as a bell.

[@NaderHasanMD]

This list of comments is living proof of the beauty classical music has to break through all language barriers. We have Spanish, English, Japanese, and other languages posted. Such a peaceful setting.....

[@BennyGoodman1977]

Oistrack the best...

[@Imafriend123]

absolutly amazing

[@MuchKoku]

Very cool. It's a great piece. The conductor seemed pretty reserved. I used to have one that was known for throwing her baton mid concert and just flailing her arms wildly.

[@raoultak]

There isn't any better......tribute to Oistrakh!

[@iamemod]

love the touch of barouque. oistrak puts a great example of bach.

[@rusconiroberto]

Wow, I've only ever heard one or two recordings that match this one. Awesome.

[@daviddarwazeh2260]

I'm so excited! My teacher said when I was 12 I would be able to work on it. It looks really fun, but that's what I say now:}

Ralph Rusconi: David is the best violin player that i ever heard , he was plaing at a n amazing level even at his younger age (5), I could practist thi spiece for ever and never get the sound as importand-interesting-coo as his. He is PRO..

If this is the KZbin video that I am addicted to this is it...

[@earthdefenders]

Bach and Oistrakh forever!

[@brkello]

I love this concerto. I have been using to practice for an upcoming concert. The guy rushes a bit in places, but still good :)

[@xruited]

this guy is masters of masters!!!!!!!!

[@AdamCzarnowski]

A very Young Colin Davis at the helm - but what gloriously ripe and musicianly violin playing. One of the greatest, David Oistrakh. No wonder the late Mstislav Rostropovtich idolised him

[@lisasimps]

Wow! Awesome! I'd love to be in Julliard! You must be really talented! :D *

[@AKSTERSKY]

I ADORE DAVID OISTRAKH PLAYING THIS PIECE WITH IMPROVISATIONS AS WELL

Замечательный плейлист. Просто очень, очень.

[@luckyangel199]

[@Vakasha]

Just something about Bach compositions... their purity of tone and Intricacy of melody cannot be compared.

[@Natthesplatt]

Agreed. It's both not too hard, and not too easy, yet sounds so awesome that I feel so damn happy, playing it.

[@jiayuzhang5097]

great！

[@tomfroekjaer]

After I sent the message I actually saw that you had already found it a while back :-) And yes - aboslutely great!

Sorry, abburidtakaria. You have misunderstood. This is one of the video clips that I MOST enjoy.

[@timtooth7254]

Wow! Simply, Wow!

[@festershred]

i am currently learning this piece as well and the part that gets me is the part directly after the scale slurs , but the rest is easy

[@zzfinance]

I was just objectively talking my opinion. Oistrakh is great,no any question about it. but nobody is 100% perfect all the time. for this recording, if you watch Hillary hahn playing the same piece, you will notice her extraordinary significance. her vivid interpretation, energized, pleasant stable pace and more.. still Oistrakh is one of the great violinists of 20th Century for sure. my idol when I was a kid.

[@clschaub]

Im playing this for NYSSMA this year, and It's gonna be really fun to work on, even if I cant play it is well as David Oistrakh can

[@RicharAndy]

RIP David Oistraj, teacher of the teacher of my teacher, him grand son is so orgullous

[@PietroTrabace]

fantastico!!!spero di farlo ank io così al saggio!

[@dianawills]

love it

[@PrickStanda]

high school exploits... priceless remark. David Oistrakh and Svyatoslav Richter - the greatest violin and piano players in the past century in my opinion. For the greatness of the two just listen to the violin sonata op. 134 by shostakovici here on youtube. It's beyond any words.

[@dariolc11]

OHHHHHHHHHHH MY GODNESSSS ITS SO BRIGHT

[@HelenaGelfor]

According to Kurt Sassmanshaus graded materials list, this is grade 4. Technically, it is not a very difficult piece, especially not the first movement, and it does allow for a freedom of expression and musicality. I hope this helps.
