Just sublime, honoring the music of Bach. Thank you

You are merely a creature of habit.

Lloyd Goldstein

Bylsma knows this music so well and so deeply that he plays it differently every time, and in different times of his life. He chose this slow tempo this time, another time it may be different. However, the line is entirely evident no matter what tempo he is playing. I suggest you leave your own habits out of it when listening to a master play and try to hear his depth of life experience.

Lloyd Goldstein

I sincerely hope that you may play so awfully well in your lifetime!!!

Lloyd Goldstein

Brilliant will still be an understatement!! 

Enakshi Banerjee

Bach is so personal and there are so many ways of playing it. I think Bylsma is one of the finest and most interesting interpreters.

Joanna Kaptein

Lol how is this "baroque in every aspect" with his tempo changing every 5 measure Rostropovich and Dupre are the best when it comes to Bach Also personally I think its awful to play like this playing rubato everywhere too "exaggerated" :P again, just an opinion

Greentighty

Yo Yo Ma has nothing on Bylsma.

Diana Hadzega

Exactly. The man doesn't even respect his own tempo.

TheVoodooMaker

This super slow tempo makes it hard to get a sense of line and phrasing. i realize he is the definitive on the "true baroque" interpretation, but it leaves a lot to be desired.

warlockig

This is marvelous, such wonderful piece!

Jessica J Alaniz

Id beg to differ, Rostropowich is incredble

makin4591

What a marvelous performance. He is a true artist!

Reyes M. Berrios

Too slow. Though this never gets old with other cellists, but this version., I hate to say, SUCKS!

LamZL1

3 russian cellists don't like this....

saradowlingsinger

Baroque in every aspect. Better than Rostropowich

aretmd

The crescendo in Cello suite 1 doesn't do it for me at all, it's too slow and the feeling is just lost

I couldn't agree more! Too often people state their opinions as if they are fact and then become aggressive an d/or abusive if challenged. Appreciation of the arts is always subjective and in music perhaps more than most. Unfortunately there is a great amount of ignorance and unreasonable bias also involved. These videos are here for people's enjoyment, not for uninformed and unpleasant criticism!

MrFpam

Indeed. i can't understand how people attempt to assign 'objective' assessments to what are wholly subjective experiences of each person who listens and/or views works in the performing or plastic arts. i've never been able to tell another person that they shouldn't like some form of artistic expression, even if i can't stand it. the only thing i had to clarify one time to a student was that a sunset is nature, not art, but they can certainly be beautiful and inspire wonderful artworks.

Khalid Tailche

BANTER, BICKER, BICKER, BIGGER, BETTER, BEST THE SLOW ONE NOW WILL LATER BE FAST KEEP YOUR ONE EYE FIXED WHILE YOUR OTHER ONE TRIES TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO PLAY AS GOOD OR AS WELL AS ANNER

Have you actually seen the sheet music before saying too fast?

znile1

znile1
