J.S. Bach: Partita for Violin No. 2 in D minor, BWV 1004 – Alexis Cárdenas, Bremer Barockorchester
Oh, this was lovely… I cannot even imagine the genius required to write such a piece, or the incredible talent required to play it… The human mind is such an amazing thing, at its best…🙏💕 Not a big fan of abstract art although I do love some of it (do you know Jean-Paul Riopelle?). It’s usually an acquired taste for me. Hope you have a lovely day 🙂💕
Normally, I dislike that kind of art, but, today’s was a complete turn around for me. I can see so many different things in this painting; it was like; it was like watching clouds! Thank you, Sunnyside!
This was a really nice piece. It reminded me of Vivaldi. (I hope that doesn’t make me sound ignorant!) I had to learn some of Bach’s “Two-Part Inventions” when studying classical piano and they were some of the most difficult pieces I attempted. The piece here has a lot going on. Very nice! 🙂
Alexis Cardenas is brand new to me (no expert here!), and the way this music makes me feel is the same way I feel when I hear Vivaldi. That really is the extent of my musical expertise…lol. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts, Sheila. 🙂
