J.S. Bach - Chaconne in Dm
    #19110436 - 11/09/13 01:37 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

As an amateur violin player, the peak of my Mount Everest, in the event that I am ever able to surmount it (though I do not even several lifetimes would allow me to master this work), as a musician would most definitely be this piece. It is the fifth and concluding movement in Partita No.2 for solo violin

Quote:

Perhaps the last words of this short eulogy to J.S. Bach should be left to Johannes Brahms, a man not known for giving empty praise, who wrote the following words to Clara Schumann describing Bach's Chaconne for solo violin: "On one stave, for a small instrument, the man writes a whole world of the deepest thoughts and most powerful feelings. If I imagined that I could have created, even conceived the piece, I am quite certain that the excess of excitement and earth-shattering experience would have driven me out of my mind".
