Wow, well done! Really interesting interview, beautiful images, amazing music. Congratulations!!

[@cookingmusician]

Thank you so much for watching! Alena was such an interesting person to chat with!! 😄

[@choihyung-min2932]

I love concept of this channel. first ep of first season turns out to be one of my fav musicans. I love watching this ep she telling us a lot of her stories that we couldnt find on musical album jacket or concert venue interview.

[@cookingmusician]

🙏 that was exactly my thought! I really want to know the people behind the stage presence and see how they got there- Alena is such a beautiful philosopher of music and life, she was wonderful to have as the first guest! ❤️

[@NadiaFarcas-e3u]

Very interesting concept! It was fascinating to hear the story, watch the wonderful images and hear the beautiful music. Looking forward to the next episodes too!

[@cookingmusician]

Thank you so much! I think the next one will be very interesting as well…! Vadym is just a superb pianist with a fascinating life- and since he was briefly introduced in this video, we wanted to go straight to his story after! 😊

[@JuergenKrauss]

At last I got to watch this episode! Thank you Heather for putting this together, and thank you Alena for your amazing stories and insights!

[@cookingmusician]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it!! And I can’t wait to edit your episode, we had such a fantastic time with you!! ❤️😍❤️

[@randomgamechannel1361]

Yes a really refreshing episode, you a have a great narrating voice. Good food and music what's not to like. Looking forward to the next episode

[@cookingmusician]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind comments, we worked very hard to create a nice concept- it makes me very happy you feel we’re on the right path!

[@vanalexyoutube]

Hello, great show! Is that Bach in the Intro? Anyone?

[@cookingmusician]

It’s the Arrival of the Queen of Sheba by Haendel 😊 thanks so much for watching- the next episode comes out on Friday this week!

[@wonjunchue4173]

Bravo Alena and Heather !!!!!! Fantastic show 👏 👌

[@cookingmusician]

Thank you so much!! So happy to see the interview online and the positive feedback! 🙏❤️

[@MorganRue-mx1kj]

Great! Splendid voice for narration. Next stop syndicated TV!

[@cookingmusician]

Ah, that would be amazing!! 😄❤️

[@getvivekshinde]

Heather, Wonderful episode.. Alena seems to have lived ( and still seems to be living) such an interesting and eventful life and enthusiasum is so palpable..which makes her a great story teller.. and you are so good at guiding the conversation... But hardly got to see the food 😂 Hope you got to have a good time in Istanbul!

[@cookingmusician]

You are so right- what a wonderful story teller!! But also, we realised that we need much more food in the episodes! 😅 By episode 3 I think we’re getting a better balance, but let me know what you think if you get to watch! I appreciate the feedback! 🙏 Istanbul was BRILLIANT!! And it was so fun to meet you!

[@evelynestava1910]

Beautiful! Only one comment--the piece that Alena plays at 9:10 is not the Strauss concerto but the Schumann. I'm also a cooking musician, so I've subscribed to your channel. :)

[@cookingmusician]

🙏🥳 waiting for the last episode in the series with you in it! 😄

[@YuliiaKholodenko]

I really enjoyed your video. Alona is amazingly talented, musician, and cook) With her husband Vadim they created perfect duet on the stage end in a life!

[@cookingmusician]

I totally agree! 😍 and look for the next episode which focuses on Vadym, as you saw he is just a fantastic musician as well!

[@YuliiaKholodenko]

@@cookingmusicianthank you, for suggestion, I’ll. And you are 100% right! Never met Vadim, but I was listening he’s playing.

[@Hyunucooks]

Oh wow…. Amazing video

[@cookingmusician]

Thank you so much! What a great musician, right??

[@fikricann]

Whats the name of the piece she plays when she was 10 years old

[@cookingmusician]

Alena say ‘This was Sonata by Tartini "Didona Abandonata", 2nd movement’ Fabulous piece, right?

[@ВладимирСавченко-т1д]

Большее спасибо ютубу за информацию об Алёне баевой. Я рад что мои комментарии смотрят. Очень жаль что Алёне баевой не хватило тщеславия и амбиций для развития своего таланта. Без этого артистом не становится. А ведь баева и хилари хан начинали в одно время. Прошло 20 лет и теперь я вижу первая довольная домохозяйка другая одна из самых лучших виоланистов на планете ВКЛЮЧАЯ МУЖЧИН. НА ЛИЦО БИБЛЕЙСКАЯ ИСТИНА ОДНА ЗАРЫЛА ТАЛАНТ В ЗЕМЛЮ ДРУГАЯ УПОРНО ТРУДИТСЯ и не зря. Вот так. Ещё повторю просьбу хотел бы посмотреть или послушать хилари хан показывает сонату Чайковского меланхолия (по моему оп 9) техника у неё отличная а вот как с сементальностью.

[@jgunther3398]

Much better show than the Fishin' Musician! Enjoyable hearing you and her talking. Happy to see she is playing some in the U.S. these days; hopefully I'll be able to hear her sometime in a good (acoustic!) environment. You all should come down to Austin for some barbecue, and forget about all that other stuff you're calling food!

[@cookingmusician]

I’d love to try some good Texas barbecue!! That has to be on my list 🥳 thanks for watching 😄

[@71280Carmen]

Kumys is the name of fermented mare milk.

[@cookingmusician]

Ah cool! Thanks for that 😊👍

[@tangodaze]

Yes, that’s Pinky in the nutshell…🙄🙄🙄

[@cookingmusician]

😂 took me a minute to understand your comment, but yes- sounds like that’s the deal!! Thanks for watching!
