This is some of the most beautiful playing I've ever heard. It is a crime you are not known the world over. I've no problem saying your name and the word 'genius' in the same breath.

That piccolo cello sounds like the missing link between the regular cello and the viola. It's nice to hear a true tenor instrument.

[@ericoschmitt]

Boccherini owned "a small cello", many of his sonatas, quintets first cello parts, and concertos don't use the C string at all. He possibly composed and played many of those on a 4 string piccolo tuned to G!

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

@@ericoschmitt They could also be played on Violin but it'll sound an Octave higher than written

[@Lucius_Chiaraviglio]

First time I have actually gotten to see a violoncello piccolo.

[@arnonuhm3092]

Wow, Absolut worldclass! I think we must think about our system of music stars. If this was yo-yo ma , the world would give a stunning applause. This woman plays Bach as well, if think even more subtile. My Gratulation! Olymp of playing Bach. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 (And yes: she has a 5.th string, the 6. cello suite is therefore more difficult )

[@dittacello]

Thank you! I also recorded all cello suites :)

[@giraddestra]

magnifico! che stile e CHE ARCO PERFETTO. sono ammirato, solo questo violoncello piccolo... È GRANDE 😂 ! bravissima

[@danielperroni3884]

Sorry to speak in portuguese...Estou simplesmente assombrado com o seu talento..! Se Bach estivesse na platéia, ele estaria aplaudindo de pé por uma hora sem parar..! Best wishes from Mairiporã, in Brazil..!.

[@stephencoury9411]

Wow! I am impressed. I am truly impressed.

[@MrDrumminor]

Absolutely delightful! What a wonderful interpreter Rohmann Ditta is! Violinists will be envious of this!

[@CRS1952]

We admire it a lot. It's a beautiful virtuoso performance that properly accounts for the nature of the instrument. But we have our own tenor voice, the violoncello da spalla. I dare say that it's easier for us to play Bach Suites daspalla than it is for cellists to play the violin sonatas and partitas on violoncello piccolo. i.e. I find this performance a more significant accomplishment than a spallist playing a Bach Suite.

[@kevinthomson8282]

What a completely stunning and wonderful lady and performer !!!! Her agility, precision and focused-but-unflappable poise are to perfection; she enriches that which we already had from JS Bach. My warm and humble thanks for this GLORIOUS recital :-)))

[@kevinlebagousse6517]

Im so happy i was looking for on internet the partitas played by cello but in live ... and today surprise wonderfull sound technique and pleasure to play ... bravo for this nice soul.

[@lorypollina7374]

I stumbled on to this today and within a few minutes I realized I was watching something quite extraordinary. You spoke the language of the infinite. You're performance is exciting, exact, and mysterious all at the same time. God bless you - you have not lived in vain!!

This is absolutely incredible - I can‘t believe I haven‘t heard of this master cellist before! She has got everything one can only wish: impeccable technique, intelligence, musical sensitiveness, beautiful phrasing, absolute souverenity in her concentration and anticipation. Wow! A huge Bravo!!!👏💛

[@dittacello]

Thank you ;) I hope you enjoy my recordings!

[@andreasbyczkowski3435]

Fantastic comment. Agree with every word. Opens a new old world of profound musical appreciation.

[@gianlorenzosarno8396]

Beautiful sound. Fantastic Rohmann Ditta. But, is not a cello piccolo. The cello piccolo is a fuor stringed instrument. The body il almost 68cm. Tuning sol_re_la_mi. Like e violin. A octave lower. The cello in the video is 5strings instrument probably a copy of fratelli Amati. Sorry for the intrusion.

[@hergestthered5314]

This is one of the most beautiful performances ever. I love how her arm barely moves, yet she can project such sound.

[@Drewster58]

Lord, great intense playing, wicked cool Bach piece, the player, and that amazing cello! Magnificent.

[@AGLMIL]

Monumental interpretation. Bach very very Happy!!!!!!!!!!!

[@VERITS99]

This is the second time I hear this piece played on a violoncello piccolo. The first occasion was the performance of Anner Bylsma. I am really glad he has this follower in the attempt of playing JSB's violin pieces on other instruments.

[@moret1957]

Maravilloso, canta semicorcheas!!!!!!

Good

[@szabogabor6079]

This work is one of the hardest pieces to play on the guitar. 30 years ago it was thought it is impossible the play guitar. Howevever, the guitar has 6 strings the player can use 4 fingers and the neck of the guitar is shorter. This piece is the door to the hall of the best guitarist (if you are good enough to let you inside). Thanks for this musician to performance this which can be much harder than playing on it on guitar.

Bach's interpretation is worthy of praise. Thank you. Can you tell me what strings you use on this cello? I know one master in Rome who made a five-string cello and he doesn't know what strings to put in it.

[@carlosgustavomunozrodrigue3960]

Genial. Ojalá el Sr. Bach te hubiera escuchado. Al menos nosotros te escuchamos y estamos fascinados con todo tu trabajo.

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

Instead of using Gut Strings (those do break really easily), these are Larsen Flatwound Cello Strings (D'addario Medium Tension Helicore Strings plus a High E would also work) which are far more superior than Gut Strings.

[@topsecret1837]

I guess jokingly the reason why I enjoy Bach pieces while not believing in God is that if Bach has such considerable knowledge then believing in Bach would make his music sacrilege to the church, haha!
