Segovia masterclass Chaconne J.S.Bach 2/4

[@Oldpimp66]

I watch in awe. Having a class like this from The Master must have been earned, especially for a woman in that day by uncommon talent and practice.

He considered it his "calling" in life, to be the disciple of the guitar, and he certainly did change those attitudes. He also embraced recording very early on, before it was respected in the world of classical music (a traditionally very pretentious bunch ;-) ) and exposed the world not only to the magnificence of the guitar but to classical music in general. He was quick to point out that Bach himself spent a great deal of time transposing his (own) works to other instruments.

This piece is so insane!! It never stops

[@122pumpkinave]

no, it was actually for solo violin, the final dance from his partita # 2 in d minor, and bach wrote lots of violin music

el maestro segovia

[@gitarre1987]

Brigitt Zaczek, Professor of guitar at Vienna.

[@122pumpkinave]

originally wrote it for violin and (i believe) segovia was the first to arrange it for guitar

[@neboyd]

segovia is very articulating to every notes, he urgs all who played the chaconne to plaed that very slow first be patient because that piece is not just a ordinary piece. follow all the fingerings in his transcricption. thanks,.. leo rene

[@skmusicman]

he also knows they cry easier than the guys. I've seen him make a guy cry before!!

[@Hun_Uinaq]

No. He didn't say "Play everything slow while naked." He said that she needs to practice everything articulate each note slow. I don't remember his exact words right now but I guarantee you he didn't tell that girl to do it naked. I'm not surprised he's more patient with his female students. He was brought up in a generation and a culture where it was engrained in the man that the woman was a delicate creature and needed to be treated with chivalry, gentleness and consideration.

[@padario44]

It was wrote for the violin. There is no proof, Bach even wrote for the lute. And i think Segovia was the first to put it into the guitar rep.

2:22 oumagaaa

[@indiovihue]

but the D pedal? It's not in the Bach score

[@skmusicman]

I did think he said that...it just slipped out and he hoped nobody noticed!!!

[@lethol1]

Anyone know the students name?

[@guitarfan1979]

@kandykid13 lol true

[@SophiaLaiho]

[@sandrastreaming]

[@YohanesNiko]

[@paulmadryga]

[@yuepon13]

@kevingopar Baroque

[@vingazole]

I think you heard it but I don't think he said that !

[@riccardo53804]

who's that girl? i want to listen to her nowadays

[@Djam-gh5ko]

Elve Ezio I Googled the girl and came up with Brigitte Zaczek. The class was in 1965. and the Piece is Chaconne from the Violin suite BWV 1004. Composed by J.S. Bach

[@Gelfling62]

"...practise everything slow - and: Articulating very much!.." Needs a bit of imagination running wild to hear anything about "naked" in it ;-)

[@VeritasAmantesVocat]

but this part beginning at 1:50, they just cant touch the way it sounds on violin, needs to shriek and sob more.

[@VeritasAmantesVocat]

@padario44 ya , from what i understand he got a lot of shit for playing Bach on the guitar, at the time the classical artists considered it a a silly instrument unworthy of the classics

[@steveb9325]

Yea! I'd like to see these classical artist that called it s silly instrument actually play a classical guitar!
