Violin music videos

Almost exactly 10 years ago (on 31st July and 1 August 2015) Alina Ibragimova gave 2 solo recitals of Bach sonatas and partitas at the Proms. Performing such music live broadcast around the world in front of a discerning audience of 9,000 people at the Albert Hall is not for the faint-hearted. Although she was fairly well known at the time, this really put her on the map.

Early one evening during lockdown in 2020 we were at a local restaurant and Alina was playing this Chaconne, warming up for a recital. Within minutes there were 150 people at the window in rapt attention. The police came and broke up what was an illegal gathering. You couldn’t make it up.
 
I've been really enjoying listening to some of my Vincent Belanger vinyl recordings.
Here is another excerpt that you may enjoy. I love the tone he gets out of his instrument. I love the dynamics and the nice balance of detail and hall acoustics.


Best wishes,
Don

Hello friends. I am embarrassed by me being so technically challenged....

Here's another excerpt from Vincent Belanger playing Bach on vinyl. This is on the same LP as the video above on post #124.

This video is even better than the one I posted above.... 'cause my favorite listening buddy (my golden retriever) is enjoying it with me. He even knows to lay in the sweet spot ;)

Hope you enjoy!


Best wishes,
Don
