I looking for violin music. Something that might seem to go with the color red.
I like listening to violin's, but don't know what to search for.

I am hoping I can get good enough make my own music. I have books on it, from books.google.com. fugue, canon, counter point, harmony, music theory. The theory and teaching on how Bach did he's music.

Bach has sometimes been called the 'father of Christian music' because of his strong, outspoken belief that the sole purpose of music should be for the glory of God

most of his compositions are inscribed "S. D. G" - - solo Deo gloria

I never knew this about Bach, that makes me very happy to hear. I did get he's complete set of organ music. Played by a pro on many of the big cathedral churches in Europe. I love hearing he's toccata and fuge musics. Toccata Und Fuge d-mall, BWV 565.

The majority of my favorite music is from the 1700s.
This is Bach's violin concerto.
He's my favorite writer by far.
The saying goes,
Nothing beats vintage. There's a reason why it's lasted this long.
It's the best!
What else can I say?
This is THE BEST of the best.
Bach's music makes me praise the Lord.

(This should be at 720p quality. If your computer buffers, just go to settings and knock it down to 480. Higher the better though. I crank it up.)

Praise the Lord!!!


From the caption, Bachology channel:
"Violinist Lana Trotovsek plays Bach's Chaconne.
Chaconne is a solo instrumental piece that forms the fifth and final movement of the Partita No. 2 in D Minor, BWV 1004, by Johann Sebastian Bach. Chaconne is one of the most challenging solo pieces ever composed for violin.

Lana Trotovšek is a violin Professor at the Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance in London. She maintains close ties to her home country where she performs regularly and is a visiting Professor at the Academy of Music in Ljubljana. She plays a 1750 Pietro Antonio dalla Costa violin."

Here is one of them.

this really has to be experienced in person, in a large cathedral on an organ with an antiphonal, to be understood - - how the composition sweeps and swells and rolls through the space, interacting with itself, filling the air, vibrating the entire building

 

[Brasspen]

@HealthAndHappiness The Chaconne does sound like it would be very hard to play.
