When I was a little boy - around 8 or 9 years old, I listened to my violin teacher playing this piece and thought to myself: “ I will not die until I could learn how to play this piece”...thank god I did...life is beautiful...
Yes, when I was 12 starting to learn how to play violin, my teacher show thais to me in the first class, I thought to myself I would definitely master this piece. Sadly when I was 14, I move to a new city with my parents and I lost chance to learn violin. Although I joined an orchestra team in university, but Thais is too hard for me to play. Until now, the most difficult piece I can play is the spring of Xinjiang.
I had the same thought!! But my parents couldn't afford lessons. I just started to play a year ago at age 52. It's a hellish struggle but worth every ounce of pain. I recommend it to everybody middle age who has doubts trying it. Yes, It's so so so incredibly hard, but it really is fascinating... not at all what I thought. A much deeper experience
I am a classical pianist. I played this endlessly as a teenager. Couldn't stop, sooo beautiful!! I think this is the best version! The violinist's face is so wonderfully expressive!!! ♥️
My Dad used to play this piece on his violin - He used to look so sad when playing it - I was so young then to realise what was going through his mind then - I miss him - Love you Dad
No pathos, just pure romanticism. Played with restraint and yet so emotional, without the slightest hint of gimmickry. This is a man of outstanding taste. Vengerov is truly a great artist!
Mi dispiace , ma lei non ha capito niente del testo . Qui nonc’e’ romanticismo ma Spirito , ‼️e pathos Amore infinito per Gesù Cristo fino alla morte . La musica sublime fa capire bene tutto questo , legga il testo dell’ opera di Massenet e può capire bene questo pezzo in cui Thais muore per il vero e unico Amore che e Gesù Cristo ✝️🙏❤️
my mom is 93years old.I look at her face and know her end is near.I listen to this wonderful music and long for the time that will never come back, I always had her,she always cared for me and now it is me who has to look for her and her old,sad eyes tell me so many this that need no words.Nothing will ever be the same when se passes away and I cant face that moment. dont know what I would do to see her smile again. T'estimo Mama.
This was the last piece I ever learned on the violin before my tendinitis got too severe to continue. Even now, 10 years later, I still get emotional when thinking about it. I lost one of the greatest things in my life at the time, while trying to accomplish one of the most beautiful things I had ever heard. But that being said, I think it was because of losing my ability to play, specifically this piece by Massenet, that I grew to love music so much more. It's almost as if the beauty of a piece was only truly visible once I physically experienced how unattainable it was and how impossible it was for me to imitate. This song is proof that music transcends every mode of communication and human action. Meditation juxtaposes love, suffering, pain, joy, sadness, and peace into one, comprehensible message. We are spoiled to have the opportunity to hear something like this.
Oh, how I could relate to your beautifully composed sentiments regarding the strengthened intensity to love music so much more due to losing your ability to play, specifically something this beautiful. The arthritis that insidiously devoured my finger joints over the years, discouraging me each time I sat down at my beautifully restored Steinway waiting to be played brought me to the sad reality that I, personally, could no longer perform with the fluency and swiftness as I had been able to only a short ten years prior. I would even stay away from my instrument for months, almost grieving my loss, until just recently, after 5 decades of relentless practice and performance, I have accepted this. My love for music, has been intensified as never before, and in particular, listening to Massenet, knowing it, of course was written for violin, and having attempted playing it on piano (always falling short of the intense lyrical melody as on violin), I, too, and have a connection far greater than ever before with music's soulful capture of all our humanly emotions. I am enjoying like never before; it's also wonderful to have UA-cam at our beck and call so we may soothe and be grateful for the glorious sounds of music.
Augustine Glazov that sounds quite sad to me, is there any chance you could recover the ability? i found this music after listening to an interview with jerzy gregorek by tim ferris, i can recomend that. also check out wim hof and his method to becoming healthier. also check out bulletproof and see if you cant find some help there. i wish you luck, and hope you get to play such music again!
Augustine Glazov man, so sorry to hear. At least you got to pay this gorgeous piece. Have you ever looked into a hyperbow ? String less electronic violin?
@Augustine now you are officially human, no? now, as i am learning that i will pass on many years sooner than normal (cancer), of course i want to just enjoy myself- try new things..blah blah...it always goes back to music; playing a stringed instrument in my hands, so close to my face...or the piano- ah, to play chopin ...or to sing...as much as i cannot live without music, life kept these lofty goals from me...no different now, as one can or cannot (imo)..it must be so heartbreaking to be able to- actually be able to learn and play- and to grow into less ability...i am sorry, dear one. nothing is as important, far-reaching and everlasting as music...the universal language..so, have you found a new direction to channel your talents??? please- inspire me!!!!!
I live in a small town . One day my mom told me to go to the big city that is 35km away from here to pick some papers for her, hour long bus drive. I used to go to highschool in that same city. That day I was passing by a elementary school of music and I literatelly froze.For that split moment , everything around me went silent as I was listening through the open window , that melting gold sound that just blew me away. I just stood under the open window and felt so liberated and free for those couple of seconds . I came home and spent hours looking for it until I found it . It was a bit different since it was only violin at the school but after listening to this piece I just knew it was this one . You never know what the day will bring.
As a young man this was my favorite classical piece, it seemed to transport me up above the world. So I had my brother in law play it at my wedding. Now almost 50 years later this beautiful song remains a part of the most beautiful day and most beautiful person in my life, and reminds me what we have done and experienced together. A beautiful life.
Maxime Vengerov once came to visit us in my old music school, in Montreal. He was so nice, humble, just a normal person who you'd never guess is such a brilliant musician that happens to play pieces like this one, magially, in front of an audience like this one. I absolutely love him.
This is the best violinist in the world. I doubt there has been or ever will be anyone to rival this God-given man. I saw him in Manchester, playing with the BBC Philharmonic .... just exquisite...
This magnificent piece is to be played at my funeral. It depics a life begun in peace and tranquility; middle life us convoluted with chaos, pain, disappointment, then, at the ending, life becomes more peaceful and tranquil, as I pray it shall end. Most beautiful piece of music ever written to me.
This is music for the soul, so if your soul is buried deep within the madness and chaos of the human animal, it might not touch you. However if it does touch you, then know for sure that these vibrations have a healing property so listen as many times as you can. Peace!
@@GeorgeWolff36 Don't like his personality in person or his violin playing. You don't need to shake rattle and roll to play violin you know and BTW, why are you spending your time on me on this beautiful holiday! Happy Fourth my musical friend!
When my brother passed away in Jamaica in 1975 going through things he left was CD of this melody and I have played it ever since and have enjoyed immensely
Buon pomeriggio del 15 luglio 2022 ore 15:30... Sto ascoltando ora, per la prima volta, questo pezzo trovato per caso, ma niente succede per caso!

Nel frattempo, ascoltiamo questa musica, che entra fin nel profondo del nostro essere, fino a versare lacrime di gioia e commozione, per tanta bellezza! Il Violino 🎼🎻 sembra che pianga!😢 È, da sempre il mio strumento preferito, avrei tanto voluto imparare a suonarlo, ma la vita ha deciso diversamente, questo rimarrà un mio sogno, per la prossima vita! Intanto ascolto con piacere i Grandi Maestri Musicisti e anche la musica del "passato", che porta con sé, ricordi felici e ricordi dolorosi...questa è la Vita 🤷🏻♀️
YES!!!...In a million years I would have never counted on a violinist being on my ipod with Elmore James, Muddy waters, Hendrix and SRV but it is. Makes my eyes water.
this is so beautiful and our beautiful 17 year old Granddaughter will be playing it at mine and her Grandpa's Wedding (convalidation of vows) on our wedding anniversary next week.
The sound of the violin reminds me of my father's playing; he was a great violinist and violaist. He met my mother by being her private teacher. After the lesson, he walked her home. Much later, they both played in the Honolulu Symphony orchestra for 35 years.
“I have departed from this planet and I have left behind my poor earthly ones with their occupations which are as many as they are useless; at last I am living in the scintillating splendor of the stars, each of which used to seem to me as large as millions of suns.” ~ Jules Massenet ~
To play music to the fullest of your capability and be rewarded in a beauty that is unearthly is to have seen the tiniest glimpse of what God is truly like.
This is the wonderful violin player Maxim Vengerov!!! His interpretation is very intense and dramatic!! See him at youtube, when he was abou 15 ears old!!!
SENSIBILITATE...LA PLUS INFINIT, ELEGANTĂ, RAFINAMENT, SIMPLITATE, ATITUDINE, UN SUNET DE O PERFECTIUNE ASTRALA IN ACEASTĂ ARIE DIN OPERA ,,THAISS" de JULLES MASSENET VĂ MULȚUMESC PENTRU DĂRUIREA DUMNEAVOASTRĂ, PENTRU STAREA DE GRAȚIE PE CARE NE O DARUITI CU ATATA GENEROZITATE BRAAAAAVISSIMOOOO!!!APLAUZE, APLAUZE, APLAUZE, APLAUZE, OVAȚII, URALE NESFIRSITE...DAR BINEMERITATE. PENTRU POSTERITATE...POSTERITATII.
I remember, a long time ago when I was little, I heard this song on the radio, and instantly fell in love with the music. And all these years later, I found it again. My old friend.
Magistral interpretació del rus Maxim Vengerov d´una obra genial per la seva bellesa, nostàgia i sensibilitat... Molt bona tarda a totes i tots.... Una abraçada !!
That's pure skill - because I can assure you there is a very exacting sense of tempo behind it. It's only when you can have that metronome playing in your mind that you can begin to let go and play with what musicians call rubato - where you slow down and speed up the tempo for musical effect.
이제서야 이 곡이 제 가슴으로 스며듭니다 자갈밭 같았던 마음으로 들었을 땐 그저 클래식이란 영역의 음악이였고 그 음이 그음처럼 지루했던,, 한 음 한 음에 실려오는 감동을 설명할 수 없는 눈시울과 함께 듭습니다 고급스런 신의 에너지를 먹는 느낌으로 이제야 나만의 스트레스 해소법을 찾았어요 큰 선물을 받은 듯 행복합니다
La pieza es la MEDITACIÓN DE THAIS. De JULES MASSENET (1842-1912) Aquí MAKSIM VENGÉROV , violinista nacido en Siberia en 1974, interpreta dicha bellísima pieza. (Thaïs es una ópera compuesta por Jules Massenet, sobre un libreto del francés Louis Gallet basado en la novela Thais de Anatole France)
Jules Massenet plays this divine composition with such intense sensitivity, he is totally absorbed in both his instrument and the music. In other words, they are 'at one with the other'. Completely transporting. And most enjoyable.
@gregnormal07 Hallo, I am indeed a Fan of Massenet's Meditation from the Opera Thais....I have several violinist who are just as amazing:Renaud Capucon, Sebastian Bohren for example...basically I am a huge Classical Music Nerd...All the best...
Why has it taken so long for me to understand beautiful music I listened to the music of the sixties now its time to appreciate the next stage of my life Linda
Whenever I feel broken and face the abyss of existance, this moment, this particular moment he created embraces me with loving arms and life feels less useless. At least we lived, we were here to listen to him playing the sound of the stars. And all our sadness, void, short moment of time fades into comfort. Like the tears dropping out of my eyes wide open.
That is one magnificent instrument and beautiful music like this is enhanced by the superb skill of the Violinist. He really made it actually sing to me. I was in tears at the ending. SUPERB.
When I was a little boy - around 8 or 9 years old, I listened to my violin teacher playing this piece and thought to myself: “ I will not die until I could learn how to play this piece”...thank god I did...life is beautiful...
I love this! Very inspiring xx
Thank you

Sadly when I was 14, I move to a new city with my parents and I lost chance to learn violin. Although I joined an orchestra team in university, but Thais is too hard for me to play.

This is the last piece my violin teacher actually taught me before she went to heaven. Such an emotional beauty to listen to.
RIP
Thais just takes me somewhere. Higher. 💗😌
I am a classical pianist. I played this endlessly as a teenager. Couldn't stop, sooo beautiful!! I think this is the best version! The violinist's face is so wonderfully expressive!!! ♥️
sorry for your loss dear
toutes mes condoleances
the piece ends, and you remember you have to breathe
You are so right :)

My Dad used to play this piece on his violin - He used to look so sad when playing it - I was so young then to realise what was going through his mind then - I miss him - Love you Dad
That makes two of us ❤

Anche mio padre lo suonava così e mi sono commossa fino alle lacrime .Che musica sublime

The way he comes in on the beginnings of phrases is amazing. It's very hard to attack entrances softly.
Thank you for putting in words what is sooo moving in his interpretation. Best and kindest regards.
Il Massimo di tutto : della sofferenza e redenzione messa in musica suonata in maniera sublime 🙏❤️😭
This is, more than likely, the most beautiful interpretation of this work ever. It is unthinkable that it could be surpassed.
nah ;)Try to check the flute interpretation of this piece by Atsuko Koga . It's perfect.
Agree 100%
Nigel Kennedy is pretty good also! He hits that last note better than anyone I have heard, and beautifully - no screeching..
Flawless interpretation, redefines forever the meaning of musical beauty. I held my breath, and was sad for it to end. Only Vengerov.

“I have departed from this planet and I have left behind my poor earthly ones with their occupations which are as many as they are useless; at last I am living in the scintillating splendor of the stars, each of which used to seem to me as large as millions of suns.”
~ Jules Massenet ~
He called our occupations useless - and I think for most people, he was probably correct.
To play music to the fullest of your capability and be rewarded in a beauty that is unearthly is to have seen the tiniest glimpse of what God is truly like.

Exactly what I thought, he's enjoying every moment and making it his own

So beautiful! The best ever. Such feeling. Such mastery. Unparalleled
Wow.

Jules Massenet is the compsoser. The soloist's name is Maxim Vengerov
He played with total control of the violin with supreme artistry.
Bella interpretación de este hermoso y sublime clásico de Jules Massenet. Meditación de Thais. ¡Fascinante!
Meravellosa interpretacio, d'una de les peces per violi mes maQues que mai s'han creat....sublimmmmmm
One of the best Interpretation from this often played piece....Amazing...Big fan...
@gregnormal07 Hallo, I am indeed a Fan of Massenet's Meditation from the Opera Thais....I have several violinist who are just as amazing:Renaud Capucon, Sebastian Bohren for example...basically I am a huge Classical Music Nerd...All the best...
Meditation From Thais takes us from the mundane things of this life and propels us to think of our connection to the Cosmos. Well done Mr Vengerov.
Why has it taken so long for me to understand beautiful music I listened to the music of the sixties now its time to appreciate the next stage of my life Linda
2019, and Maxim Vengerov spirit sounds immortally powerful. From Minsk with love.
Isn't it, ... yess, absolutely ... "quel timbre" ... an echo from heaven ! Great music.
Oui,.....un écho du ciel....
This is the most exquisite rendition of my favourite piece. ❤
Most beautifully performed! When an artist plays from the heart, such as this...perfection is noticed!
Cet homme EST son violon. M'arrache des larmes a chaque fois
Music, the finest . How about living it like he does !
Wonderful violin!!!!!!
Whenever I feel broken and face the abyss of existance, this moment, this particular moment he created embraces me with loving arms and life feels less useless. At least we lived, we were here to listen to him playing the sound of the stars. And all our sadness, void, short moment of time fades into comfort. Like the tears dropping out of my eyes wide open.
merveilleux , merci J MASSENET , belle interprétation , bravo !
That is one magnificent instrument and beautiful music like this is enhanced by the superb skill of the Violinist. He really made it actually sing to me. I was in tears at the ending. SUPERB.
@ian d Tough as leather me. I'm like a hard toffee on the outside, but soft and mushy on the inside.
Exquisite. Bravo!
Perfection; my favorite interpretation of Massenet 's classic composition.
The best dynamics and the most wonderful modulation of rhythm... it all simply melts your emotions!

Cette œuvre est à vous couper le souffle. Seigneur quelle émotion ! Je l’écoute très très souvent.

I can quite safely say that this is the most heartrending piece of classical music ever composed, and Mr. Vengerov plays it to perfection.
La perfection !!! Juste une envie de partir sur cette musique....vers l'infini.
