- Voice of an Angel, Vocalise : Rachmaninoff
Timothy Chooi, violin/violon
Janelle Fung, piano
"Vocalise" is a song by Sergei Rachmaninoff, composed and published in 1915 as the last of his 14 Songs or 14 Romances, Op. 34. Written for high voice (soprano or tenor) with piano accompaniment, it contains no words, but is sung using any one vowel of the singer's choosing.
This recording is exemplified on the violin and piano. The violin cannot produce any words, and therefore performs this work very well. There are emotions of loneliness, sadness, and confusion, but despite these intense feelings, the piece maintains a meditative overarching character.
It starts with the piano playing a repetitive vamp, and the violin enters with a lonely but distinctive voice. The voice of the violin paints the image of the voice in a graveyard. As the piece develops the violin changes its facade, and becomes intensely emotional with flavors of sorrow, crying and mourning before resolving in a ghostly voice at the end.

With thanks to St. George's Anglican Church in Montreal, Canada.
I agree with everyone that this is a fantastic performance, however, I want to particularly draw attention to the spectacular pianist who is a perfect accompanist. Those who have ever played a duet know what I mean.
Piano gang thanks your support
Violinist here, who appreciates very much the fine playing of both and the ensemble they achieve together, but thinks that the term 'accompanist' does not do justice to the role the piano -- and the pianist -- play in this work.
@@commontater8630 That's why people often use the expression "collaborative pianist" nowadays
@@1000pollak That's apt.
No offence but kinda cringe
If you are not a violinist you have no idea how difficult it is to perform this relatively simple piece with the intensity and passion that Chooi does. It sounds so easy but only a few top artists of our generation have the skills needed to deliver a performance like this one by Chooi. He is truly one of the greats of our time.
На протяжении многих лет, слушаю " Вокализ" Рахманинова в исполнении разных мастеров оперы, виолончелистов,скрипачей,это произведение для меня родное. Ваш замечательный дуэт покорил меня тонким,нежнейшим исполнением,слушала затаив дыхание. Спасибо ❤
Finally, a recording where the violinist doesn't gallop through the piece. This is gorgeous. ❤️❤️❤️
I keep coming back to this, because I know how good I'll feel, but I want to congratulate the accompanist too for her beautiful playing.
Thank you so much for coming back here!
Probably the most beautiful Vocalise recording I heard in youtube.
True
Guess what
I don't care if world class soloists or whatever might be more professional than him
This is my favorite recording
Vivace Allegro thank you!
Enfin une interprétation vraiment poétique et non virtuose de ce chef d'œuvre.
Vocalise. - Rachmaninov played by Timothy Choo (violinist). This is such a beautiful piece of music played on the violin 🎻 The violinist is such a talented player.
It was truly mesmerising and so relaxing to listen to.. Beautiful..
I’m at peace now.
WHAT ABOUT
THE ACCOMPANIST
ありがとうございます この美しい音楽のために
بعد الصمت ذلك الذي يأتي الأقرب إلى التعبير هو الموسيقى 🎻❤️🤗
I played this on my 9th grade solo and lemme tell ypu this piece is so hard it may look easy but no i played 3 to 6 hours a day for this piece i love this piece so much shows passion and do much emotions all over beautiful❤❤❤
Can't find the right words to describe how this melody touches my heart!
Rachmaninoff was so inspired when he composed this piece called "Vocalise". Thimoty's my favorite playing it.
Yes, it's a very challenging music, not easy at all.
Favorite elegy of Sergei Rachmaninoff in luxurious performance by the maestro. . .
Your tone, vibrato, and rich use of dynamics are stunningly put together in this piece. Amazing performance:)
Amazing! it was as if the violin says "I love you", the violin was talking and crying at the same time.
So emotional! And beautiful.
Passion and tender , this piece would be the best romantic piece of classic music ever 🎶🎶🎶🎼🎵🎻
So glad we shared a table after that amazing concert with Sylvia at Lemmens Leuven this month so we could feel your beautiful inner soul ! Thanks !
I use your playing to practice the piano accompany part for my daughter’s violin exam. I wish she will be as musical and lovely as you are. No matter how many times I hear the same piece you are playing, I never got bored with your playing. I further look into your other performances in UA-cam. They are so well played with a soul singing behind. Good luck to your musical career.
Spending the afternoon enjoying several of your beautiful performances, my friend. Thank you more than I can say.
A good violin, a good violinist, and a good pianist accompaniment. what a performance.
Guys this is the best violin player on the planet take out your cameras!
I really love the Romantic period. It is a love story in itself, every chord, every note. It makes me cry every time I hear it. Thank you, this is beautiful. 🥰

Timothy just saw this on TikTok & have watched several times here. This has & probably always will be my favorite piece & performance. Your passion for music shows in every piece you play. I look forward to one day soon seeing you perform in concert. I almost did, however. Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful gift. M~

So happy to be a subscriber to your channel. Your playing is superb: tone, phrasing, vibrato, emotion - everything!
Awesome 👌 😊
Truly remarkable. Lovely ensemble.
I first came across Timothy on Facebook. Just needing to hear it once, this perfect smooth tone is what immediately mesmerized me, that made me immediately followed your page in order to be fed more posts, and subscribed to your Spotify playlist. And at the current moment, trying to think of a peaceful and nurturing music to calm me brain enough for sleep, your name is what I first thought of to search. (For me, I sleep with the music not because it's boring, but because it's so calmingly beautiful and I am peaceful enough to retreat into my own world)
Exquisite. What an outstanding performance.
So perfect...love your remembrance day poppy..love the acoustics..st George's perfect local...thanks for the blessing❣❣👏👏

So beautiful!! I listened to your performance all afternoon. You have become my favorite violinist.
This kind of made me cry...like hearing unspoken yearning of Rachmaninoff for Antonina Neshdanova
Fantastic Amazing 🎻

Wow❤ its like crying and tasting your own tears.

Finally, something that ISN'T a short! Took me long enough to find it!
I love full pieces by Mr Chooi :)
Hahaha welcome! There are quite a few. Right now UA-cam is really pushing the short algorithm so I’m mostly posting shorts for now.
@@timmychooi I thought so. I see "20 or 30 -second bursts of Timothy Chooi" but I want more!
You're world class and I want to see full performances!
Sooo beautiful 🌟
Gorgeous playing from both. Soul-calming. And in St George's! sooo many personal links there... When will you next play live in a large hall in Montreal?
شكرا جزيلا

واو احلى نسخة لهالمقطوعة سمعتهة لحد الان
Hello I am Lucia and I play the saxophone. I listened for Thais and I want to play with piano this summer thanks❤️. This music I played the last summer with pianist and me with my saxophon I wish I play the same that you.
Thank you :)
I came here from A Gentleman in Moscow. What a fitting song for the occasion. :(
Ahh, I listened this performance with two hands on my heart. Beautiful, beautiful💐 Thank you!❣️✨
☺️❤️❤️❤️
I love the violinist and the pianist because I play both instruments 🎉
Mesmerizing. Bravo !
Wonderful!
So very beautiful and poignant! It's hard to get two people more in sync than I'm hearing. Does she travel with you? Asking because it's just so perfect in my ears!
Damn, glorious.
God i love this violin version so much, but I'm still doubting if I like this rather than the cello version... Both are flawless
Forget it, this version made me cry, u are so talented
You are so sweet!
You are really good at that
Yay I finally found it I think this is the one that was featured in twoset
Like it
Good!
Astor piazolla - oblivion, please!
Will consider it :)
Eu respeito, eu aprecio! S2
멋지다
Beautiful interpretation. Although so many candles around the piano and violin made me a bit nervous.
Because I do
