Bottesini Gran Duo for double bass and violin

Casual video of Bottesini's Gran Duo.
Alina Ibragimova - violin (Pietro Guarneri, Pirastro Passione strings)
Rinat Ibragimov - double bass (Albani, a gift from his friend Alexander Stepanov, Pirastro Eudoxa-solo strings)
Grace Mo - piano

[@anthonywilsongolf]

Fun fact: the original piece was written for two double basses. The violin part was transcribed by Camillo Sivori, Paganini's student.

Rinat I have so much respect for you. When you had a stroke and never played again I literally almost gave up my career. You are such a hero to me. I know people who have a personal relationship with you. They say you toke this and turned it positive. Your trying to play the bass again. I really admire and respect you. You a hero to me 100000000000%.

[@JazzicalLiks]

Just realized that both Alina and Rinat are playing from memory. Playing solo works by memory is one thing but chamber music? And specifically this? Just wow.

[@CesarJoseee]

Rinat is a god on the double bass.

[@turboturtle8977]

RIP, god.

[@AndrewDowns97]

casual my ass, this is the best video of the grand duo

[@awd587]

They must be one of the most musically talented families ever!

[@michaeljasso10]

I can't imagine anything good for when Alina performed anything but perfect recital growing up, but the smile on their faces and bond they share of music shows us it was all worth it. Their family must be such amazing musicians haha

[@user-wk2gi5cp9y]

Until we meet again, Mr. Ibragimov. For now, rest in peace.

[@nicomegaone]

He's a fabulous bass player, as well as having an amazing bass and bow. He's playing very high harmonics with perfect accuracy, a trait hard to find in any bass players, but Rinat is truly amazing.

[@silverlicious2086]

Incredible performance. No words can be... or ever will be found to describe this moment in musical history.

[@gonzabaldassarri]

He solved the double bass.

[@andreisvirkov]

R. I. P. We love you, Rinat.

[@gillesmartin4805]

Je ne me lasse tout simplement pas d'écouter ce grand duo de Bottesini , magnifiquement interprété ici ! Merci beaucoup 😘

[@Murdo2112]

I love Rinat's face around the 11:30 mark. That's a proud father.

[@michaeljasso10]

always warmed my heart, but im now just finding out that's his daughter. OMG way more Amazing....

[@mason11198]

8:15 this part is awesome! wow!

[@kayware9984]

If I could play my bass like this, I'd be set for the rest of my musical career

[@sergeifedosjeenko]

Лучшее исполнение дуэта скрипки с басом Боттезини, которое я слышал. :)

[@tempestlizard7075]

On devrais interdire à la perfection d'exister, car le son qui sort de vos instruments l'égale de loin et mes larmes sont sorties toute seules... un pur instant d'émotion... magnifique, splendide, merveilleux... sortit d'un rêve... il n'y a pas d adjectif pour qualifier un si beau trio... bravo...

[@sauleaseviciute5668]

They even aren't dressed up with suits or fancy dresses, just looking casual and playing wonderful... That's the real art

[@erikasteponic]

TEARS. in my eyes... GaSP.

[@user-zi3lg1pb4j]

Браво Брависсимо! Верх совершенства исполнительского искусства! Комментарии просто излишни. Браво брависсимо!

[@Tr0jan1337]

I have seen her live! It was epic :P she played the whole concerto with HUGE high heels!!

[@KARIBIKunderwater]

WOOOW! this is a treasure! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS SO MARVELOUS!

[@remixuereb]

Nous traversons LA MUSIQUE de plein pieds avec ces excellents interprètes que sont Rinat Ibragimov à la contrebasse et Alina Ibragimova , sa fille , au violon, tandis que nous ne pouvons les déranger alors que eux , oui , nous bousculent musiqu'amicalement par leur total lâcher prise dans leur expression de noblesse d'expression des sentiments par le langage miraculeux de si belles musiques ....

[@crystalaireantiquefans4535]

Rinat, you were and still are one of my biggest inspirations, i hope to be as good as you one day. May you play again someday, and until we meet again May you rest in peace

[@UKRINBANK]

Такого уровня у контрабасиста не видел, скрипка завораживает. Шок. Просто не реальная техника, Божественная музыка. Не могу наслушаться. Брависсимо.

[@MsBossio]

Alina is beautifull

[@pierrehellouin2835]

Pierre Hellouin. Absolument fantastique. Remarquable interprétation. De plus, la maitrise techniques de ces trois instrumentistes, laisse croire qu'il n'y a aucune difficulté technique, le tout ajouté à un immense talent. Toute mon admiration, notamment au contrebassiste. BRAVO et mille fois Bravo.

[@nickmidget]

Digging Ibragimov so much right now...both of them.

[@MichelleFrets]

Thank you for posting this. I genuinely enjoyed listening and also seeing the three of you play. Very good musical chemistry between you two string players. Fantastic.

[@MichelleFrets]

I still like this very much, but why not? I gave more attention to the pianist this time. She really did a nice job too. I would imagine that an accompaniment with long stetched of nothing would be difficult.

[@HelenaWilliams8696]

Bottesini's Gran Duo is profoundly poetic musical melody. What a lovely rendition!

[@tanja.violin]

Конробасист просто потрясаем своим мастерством. Ооочень чисто, дует невероятно хорошо звучит. Спасибо!

[@TheClews]

stunning performance.

[@KingYahshua]

Jesus christ, absolutely amazing.

[@GuillermoParejaHerrera]

Absolutely delightful trio ! Thanks a lot for your kindness.

[@MrFrizzleTheMan]

By far the best version out there imo

[@msbeliber143]

uhhhhhh WHY CANT I BE THAT GOOD T PLAYING BASS AMZING !!!!

[@wehwalte]

It is not common to find such a taste along with precision in execution in double bassist, cheers to you, sometimes ones sees the Music, behind all that wood and steel and horse hair, sweat and patience.

[@noemiserra3366]

RIP, Rinat....😭😭😭❤

[@Mitsuki424]

I've only been playing violin for 3 months, following Suzuki method. Musicians like these wonderful people, they inspire me to improve. Thanks for posting this :)

[@clav4eg1]

Огромное спасибо вам! Ринат вы со своей дочкой просто шикарно заучите!! Осталось только снова сыграть в Большом Театре)) И еще раз ОГРОМНОЕ СПАСИБО Вам за вклад в контрабасовое искусство!

[@Arkady2009]

Es Bottesini!!! Los grandes musicos pueden resucitar el alma del compositor y durante la musica ellos ya no existen. Existe Bottesini. Esto es el arte, bravo!

[@danielscheinhaus5210]

Fantastic playing by two great artists. What an unbelievable bassist!

[@rosemarypruneau7513]

My orchestra group and I saw just her live preform with the NC Symphony in a dress rehearsal. Great violinist.

[@hospitality5522]

Impressive performance particularly for intonation point of view.

[@danielscheinhaus5210]

Just intonation? Listen to Rinat's bowing! He's flawless! She's superb too!

[@daveming1]

Mr. Ibragimova, your combination of control and passion is unbelievable.

[@therapsids]

I'm just going to go cry in a practice room now.
