Julia Fischer (violin) & Daniel Muller-Schott (cello) play Handel-Halvorsen Passacaglia

[@oliviacrews5822]

Two seniors at my sxhool have been playing this under the stairs and ir echoes all the way up to tge fourth floor, it's the best thing. Stairwells, who would've known,

[@sophiaschlenoff523]

Stairwells are a cellists dream

[@agazi9]

I remember me and my buddy played this too in our senior year in the stairwell haha

[@chefclementine]

That sounds so badass

[@LPSskye7]

My best friend and I will be seniors next year and it's our goal to play this 😃

[@vickic3087]

Am I the only one thought that it was cute and made it more enjoyable to see her laughing at the beginning? They obviously have chemistry... which I feel made the performance seem more even more emotionally real

[@paulwregg7011]

The question is: What did he whisper to her, before she was laughing?

[@foxmulder8955]

This is SO annoying when you play a duet with someone of the opposite sex you like and everybody starts thinking you are dating this person because you smile when you look at him/her during the concert

[@vickic3087]

lol I never said they were dating. I just wanted to emphasize that I thought it was awesome that they seem to genuinely enjoy playing together!

[@greenspiderplane]

This piece was already amazing, but your comment has made it at least ten times better! Thanks indeed!

[@ayy_lmao]

Why do people have to think this Why can't they just be friends

[@Sarkomedy]

Such beauty. Definitely one of my favorite duets; Violin and Cello are two instruments that really compliment each other. It is like a lovely chat between two lovers.

[@sofiapinto5024]

+Sarkomedy Cast true. Play the cello since i'm 6 yrs old :)

[@brisalenkauskas2820]

[@morganjohnston2585]

It's just kinda funny watching Julia bc you can tell she's being super expressive while playing but her face is just deadpan most of the time lol

[@D1scNStuff]

Morgan Johnston reminds me of jacqueline du pre

[@sophiaroberto3563]

@@D1scNStuff I love Jackie so much!!!! Rest In Peace she was the greatest cellist ever

[@thephantomeagle2]

She really has no choice. My mother played violin till shortly before her passing. She always told me that violinists that keep their chins on the chin brace don’t like to move their heads independently from the violin because it makes it harder to play. Watch players of Baroque violins, which are on the shoulder away from the face. You’ll find tons more expression

[@JameSongMaker]

@@D1scNStuffhow? Du Pre was famously physically expressive.

[@xOALtoFrEak900Ox]

this piece is so dramatic, it just speaks to you. it starts with conflict and ends with a resolution.

[@gliderfs621]

1 million + viewers, wow ! I'me glad to see that classical music is not dead. =D

[@kuno6725]

Glider FS yeah I agree I'm in middle school, so no one likes classical music. Glad to see such things :)

[@apalabhunia3795]

Me too... no one in middle school has much respect for classical music and it really pisses me off

[@figase6231]

Classic will never be dead.

[@free2singxgrl]

For those of you saying this performance had no emotion, you have to realize how INCREDIBLY difficult playing this is. This is probably one of the most complicated duets, and emotions follow getting the music and notes down correctly. Unless you have played Passacaglia and understand the amount of concentration it requires to make the piece amazing, which they did a great job doing, please don't judge their lack of emotion.

[@terumejp]

Emotional and powerful. Sadness and lyrical. It fascinates me. And it pierce deeply.

[@sitirable]

Agree with you..

[@MrPhchello]

I played this a long time ago for a masterclass before going to college. All I can remember was how ridiculously hard it was. Makes me want to pick up my cello again. This Performance was awesome!!

[@salrubz]

God, this sends the shivers down my body. Their intensity when they play is ferocious!

[@prager5046]

i like the idea the the cello is not covered by the sound of the violin...which often happens--here they are equal.

[@sitirable]

That applause not enough for them.

[@BESTOFCLASSICALMUSIC]

Yes you are right. Definitely the most beautiful performance ever.

[@gcslksd]

[@sitirable]

@@harrisons62 Yeah? It isn't OK for you? :)

[@ricaginelejorde2136]

Handel-Halvorsen created a beautiful piece that requires great technique and what's amazing is how these two gifted musicians are playing his creation. Julia provides great emotion and while Daniel delivers flawless interpretation and aggressiveness. They are both are honorary players in the music world and we should appreciate them for giving us the opportunity to hear them play.

[@yiutoob2910]

It's amazing this young lady is both accomplished violinist and pianist

[@SakuraKaay]

What i hate about classical music are the criticisms and comparations. Not old or dead then you're not good enough. Stop it. This was amazing.

[@antwanmoore7900]

This is by far the best version I've ever heard to date and my 1st time listening was over 10years ago

[@matthewwilhelmlee6125]

This piece is breathtakingly beautiful.

[@TokixWartooth]

I can't get enough of this.

[@nickjenkins471]

5.48 - As if the all the passion in the Universe is being channeled into that moment. Breathtaking. It is puzzling how the audience did not leap to their feet at the end as this performance is beyond exceptional.

[@GothicKin]

This piece is harder than Dark Souls

[@katerina9300]

no one cares about your age

[@GothicKin]

Sanford Whatley I say it as a pianist, it looks hard at least.

[@JAJOZOMBIE]

which instrument are you playing and for how long? because i would consider this pretty hard

[@GothicKin]

Fsociety 101 It's a kid so he's probably playing it for not that long but sure they are not asking from him to be that expressive nor they demand perfect technique from kids.

[@JAJOZOMBIE]

But if you are playing a piece like this your technique HAS to be perfect. Otherwise it would sound shit. But thats just my opinion...

[@cecilbannister8681]

That's The Best I've Heard Both Musicians Have The Gift 0f Perfection In Style & Deliverance When The Both Played Handel Halvorsen Passacaglia.

[@milenavadan1855]

[@quasarolive9136]

It's simply beautiful when people can practice enough that they can just not care about the technique and enjoy the actual music.

[@1welderswife]

this brought tears to me eyes ... breathtaking and emotional.

[@ElLoboLoco622]

I don't understand how 97 people can dislike this like wtf

[@PeterWhiteheadViola]

Perhaps they were violists ;) (I'm a violist, and even though Halvorsen wrote this passacaglia originally for violin + viola, I think it sounds very nice using a cello alongside violin)

[@colindeng3001]

It’s the jealous 97 people in the orchestra that didn’t get to play

[@TarunoNafs]

The violinist sitting by the back of the orchestra (maybe first violin?) moving her fingers silently along with the music--I enjoy seeing that. The violin section is focusing so very intensely on Julia's playing.

[@inujosha]

Thank you to that one guy that gave them a stating ovation. Shame on the rest. It was truly worth the standing ovation.

This is the best version I have seen. beats the Palman and Zukeman's. Though classical music,I think young performers often do better and more vivid than celebrities.

Oh yes...this one and the one with Perlman and Zukerman are definitely my favourites!!!

their lovely little glissando at 5:12 makes even the concertmaster smile :)

[@jukarnarius]

In my opinion this is the best performance... PS I have read some comments like 'this is not baroque style, this is not Handel'... Well, this is not Handel indeed, this is Handel-Halvorsen and this is the reason why I appreciate this performance much more... If you need baroque then start to listen original one...
