We come from different continents & different countries, we have different ethnic and cultural backgrounds, we have different skin colors and we speak different languages, but we all rejoice in the music of Johann Sebastian Bach!!! Thank you all the great musicians who have made this possible and I love you all!!!

In the end, I had to clap only to remember I was alone. This made my day. Every instrument is on point although some pieces are a bit fast. I stayed awake all through the night watching and listening to morn my Dad who passed away 2 days ago on 26th September 2023. This helped relieve the pain. I had to pick up my violin to jam with them at concerto No.3 for it is still my favorite.

That's how great music is made, firstly by the composers then presented by the players...

I was just going to play this as background music while I worked but as soon as I watched them play I was mesmerized. I am so grateful there are people who trained so hard to bring these masterpieces to life. Thank you!

Ahh the Brandenburg Concerto. I can only imagine being there in the 1720s, with my finest suit and my wife in her finest dress. We are sitting there watching apex musicians and composed and directed by Johann Sebastian Bach, one of the greatest musicians in history. In perspective he was the John Lennon, Taylor Swift, the Cure….except you had to see his shows live. There were no recordings or radio. My kids today struggle how I could listen to this for 2 hours? God, I hope they someday understand how magical and amazing it is to hear an auditory movie! Most musicians in the world will never make this sort of tapestry.

It is such a wonderful blessing to hear this beautiful music, once again! When I was a child, my Mom would play this for me and my brother. It never gets old.

[@envitech02]

I play the 2nd and 3rd Concerto (all movements) on violin by heart. Had every note and inflections burned into my brain. Impossible to forget. When I die I want to be buried with my violin. I play the recorder too though I wish I can play the natural trumpet. Now that is quite a notoriously difficult instrument to play. Anyway, long live Herr Bach!! Sehr gut und Unglaublich!!!! Das ist Ausgezeichnet!!! Mit freundlichen gruessen aus Malaysia!!!

There is so much stupid madness in the world today. Thankfully, there is Bach. His music and those things that support it are a safe refuge in which to re-set the values that separate sanity and order from chaos and disorder.

[@julzclark4932]

Passionate loving rendition of one of my favourites. Prior to this I watched this same concerto performed by another ensemble who lacked this passion - no smiles, not feeling the music and the maker. This ensemble enjoy each other’s music and the outcome of their hard work!

[@gdebergh7875]

I agree with you!! This Collegium 1704 is an absolutely magnificent ensemble 😍 I discovered Vaclav Luks and his Collegium 1704 for the first time for the Handel's Messiah given at the Chaise-Dieu abbey in 2019. YT recording here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j33Mk36Gl8qJeZo

[@NeverTalkToCops1]

A rather furious pace! An important piece of art, still pushing its way through time.

[@mikezinn7212]

Great to have 3 violas in all the concertos. Really makes a difference! Dynamic performance.

[@tiorbinist]

The three violas da braccio (arm viols) are largely because of the third concerto, in which the violins, violas, and cellos are present in three groups to echo and blend with each other. Having them on tap, it made sense to use all three for the orchestras of the other less-small chamber works. And it does provide a much more balanced and characteristic sound, indeed! The sixth concerto only has two violas, but they are the soloists with the Cello. The two other instruments which aren't part of the continuo "band" are violas da gamba (viols of the leg), which are used to provide chordal filling between the violas da braccio and 'cello.

[@jayakumarkaarikuzhy4713]

​@@tiorbinist Much appreciated. Normally experts don't divulge their knowledge to others.
