It's a recording from Verbier festival This piece is accompanied by Verbier Birthday Festival Orchestra. I do believe that some of the following names sound familiar: Renaud Capuçon, Sarah Chang, Ilya Gringolts, Gidon Kremer, Vadim Repin, Dmitri Sitkovetsky, Christian Tetzlaff, Nikolaj Znaider, Yuri Bashmet, Nobuko Imai, Mischa Maisky, Boris Pergamenschikow, Patrick de Los Santos.

I think I've discovered this piece a week ago now, and I listened this piece at least 30 times after this discovery. Due to the splendid performance I must listen to this piece at least once a day. Especially the second part, Largo, is beautiful. Thanks Argerich, Kissin, Levine, Pletnev and of course the string orchestra!

Thank you, KZbin and meneltar! I feel privileged to be able to hear this amazing music performed by the finest musicians of our time.... The slow movement at 7 min is the essence of Bach.....

[@ilyamurom]

But no thanks for the stupid publicity in the middle of the splendid slow movement !

The four soloists are clearly outstanding, but musicians in the orchestra are not quite at a loss either! I believe I saw Sarah Chang playing second violin! They all look like they are having such good time. Thank you for posting.

Found this by accident while looking for the concert for 2 pianos that I'm working on with my teacher. Cannot stop watching! My teacher has sent this video to countless friends!

[@slateflash]

These are people whose professional recordings I have all enjoyed. I look at each one of them and I think about their interpretations of my favourite pieces and how they have collaborated with the others at some point in their career. Now they're all playing the same piece together on the same stage!!! So trippy i can't believe this happened.

It was originally Violin music by Vivaldi, then Bach transcribed it to harpsichord in tribute.

How do you get this much talent on stage at one time? Bach must have pretty powerful connections wherever he is.

OMG the pianissimo (I mean the dynamics, it's not a joke about 4 pianos on stage lol) parts are so perfectly done. Something that truly can only be achieved when all 4 pianists are good and know what they're doing.

Please stop calling all music songs. I also ask you to refer to your computer dictionary for a definition of the word "song." Remember SONGS = SINGING. Big companies call everything songs because they can divide these pieces up into many segments and by charging you for each part make more money.

[@fernandoiglesias1445]

Con mis escasos conocimientos musicales, debo confesar que no alcanzo a comprender el alcance del comentario de Iván Pérez Margarito. Fue J. S. Bach quien convirtió un concierto de cuatro violines y orquesta en un concierto para ejecutar en cuatro pianos. Siempre creí que el trabajo de J. S. Bach era el fruto de su talento prodigioso. Y como los pianos tienen 82 teclas (creo recordar), esta versión hay 328 teclas disponibles para Bach y para los ejecutantes. Luego, no logro entender que haya una "exageración de teclas", tal como lo cree Iván Pérez Margarito. De esta versión del concierto Vivaldi-Bach, que acabo de conocer, sí me produce admiración que incluya los cuatro pianos más una orquesta de cuerdas. Las otras versiones que conozco están interpretadas con solo cuatro pianos. La suma de los cuatro pianos más la orquesta me resultó una versión más grandiosa que las versiones solo pianísticas. Coincido con Iván Pérez Margarita que el resultado es una delicia. La combinación del talento de dos grandes de la composición musical no podría ser otro que el de una nueva e inmensa genialidad. Muchos saludos. Y un agradecimiento reverencial a dos seres humanos que nos hacen mejores, que nos enriquecen y nos elevan cada vez que los escuchamos.
