15 years ago, I asked an older gentleman at church if he was a musician (takes one to know one) Found out he played cello, had a double major at Juilliard, and spent his career playing in the NY Symphony Ballet Orchestra (I verified it...wow) Then learned he was basically homeless, bi-polar, & 1000 miles from home We became friends and we did what we could for him To show his gratitude, he borrowed a cello from a local music store and walked miles with it to my house He said he wanted to play for us while we had dinner... THIS is the song he played I still can't listen to it or tell the story without at least a few tears Bless your beautiful soul Daven Jenkins, wherever you are my friend
The Cello you see here is over 300 years old. It was built in 1720 by famed Violoncello builder Domenico Montagnana in Venice, Italy. The anonymous previous owner was a fellow Cellist and admirer of Misha. On his deathbed at 94 years of age, he offered it to Mischa for a low symbolic price after being moved to tears by his music. This was in 1973, when Misha was only 25. Since then, he has mainly played this Cello, for 50 years now. Its value is estimated at around 5 million Dollars.
I come here almost daily. Mischa's interpretation of Bach is full of emotion and I just cant find another version I like after hearing his. Thanks for devoting your life to becoming a true Master of this instrument good sir.
I am in full agreement. I've searched. The timing to this performance is perfect. No one else is even close. It gives me such a depth of emotion that I can't put to words. I suppose that's what the music is for.
This is an earlier recording of 1985, he made another in 1999, very different! Heard him playing in one day all suites, day and evening concert in Toronto. Unforgettable! Go back to his later recording again and again! My favorite recordings by Daniel Shafran and Rostropovich
@@strashuninstitue390 Ive found Mischa to sound almost identical to Pablo Casals' original recording. Thanks for the 1999 tip, I had not heard that one. Did you know Mischa was a student of Rostropovich?
For me, this is STILL the best version. Nuance, style, pace -all just right. That first movement is utterly sublime. Some ‘accomplished’ performers just seem to be in a rush to get to the end.
@@FrankBittom1 Honestly, I’m not that keen. Technically fabulous, of course, but nothing like the expression of this artist (in my opinion; we all have different tastes, which is what makes world go round!)
Absolutely without doubt one of the best cellists in the entire world. I've seen so many people, highly esteemed cellist's, play Bachs Suite No 1 and absolutely nobody has come even close to Mischa. This man and his Cello are one!
My God I am from North Philadelphia ... a very hard neighborhood, when I was a kid I would go to work with my mom who cleaned for a wealthy white Family...I remember the day a friend of their family was playing this... immediately I stop what I was doin to follow this sound ... ever since. I have grew up in the arts threw Theater, Dance and classical piano..... the inspiration of music... even in the wind this song gracefully peeks in the ghetto...
Prettyrickeyfontaine _ im sorry life was so hard for u i can kinda relate having a tough life im almost 21 ive been through alot in life this song could always calm me down and make me very relaxed ^_^
@Hannah Fernandez I played moonlight sonata, then the pearlfishers with Bryn Terfel (it is quite stunning and lesser known), Air on a G string and finally this lovely piece as she faded, she was one of the last to have worked at the Nuremberg trials and she and my grandfather were heroes to me x
Getting through the third year after my daughter’s death using music. Laura played cello; she choose it in elementary school because it “spoke to her”. You don’t have to be a musician to understand that. We danced and sang together before she was even born and are doing so even after her death. This is my song of the day for May 28, 2021. Much love. 💕🐝
I am sure all the hearts touched deeply by this beautiful music send love to you....and hope God will continue to heal your broken/hurting heart.... RIP Laura - -your mama still loves you fiercely---and dearly.
Although the prelude to this piece is know as "that cello song", this entire performance by Mischa remains one of my favourite string pieces of music. The artist beautifully blends such grace, elegance and power in the same motions and one must respect the years of practice and devotion that have gone into this level of mastery.
My 4 year old daughter LOVES to listen to the prelude before going to bed. Its amazing watching her so enamored with with such a sophisticated piece of classical music thats so, so much older than her.
En mi primera clase de violonchelo mi profesor me tocó la prelude. Desde ese preciso instante supe que estos veinte minutos son mi meta a seguir como violonchelista. Gracias, Mischa Maiski por poner tan alto el listón.
Teacher “ no you do not write with a pen or a quill you write with your heart you make the music your soul tells your heart your heart tells you and you intern will make and that will show in your answers in the test”
Yes - some of the only truly perfect music ever composed. The unaccompanied cello suites and the violin chaconnes are extraordinary and, as you say, pure gold. Where they arose from within Bach is beyond comprehension.
I wonder if Bach could have known that almost three centuries later his music would be filling the hearts and souls of people today. Intellectually I can grasp he has been gone for hundreds of years, but I feel I know him as if he lived next door.
fun fact: Mishca is actually a 700 year old vampire and he was trained as a classical musician by Bach himself. after more than 250 years of practice he finally made this video.
Have watched this video for years and I went to watch this guy last night. It was brilliant! His hair turned completely white now and he played with his daughter piano accompanying. Soooo nice!
I listening this exact performance for 7+ years. Every f*ng time still getting those goosebumps. What a good piece of art with such ideal performance. 😻😘😍😇
Can you imagine the acoustic of that room ? That's why, there's no; microphones or amplification (only for the recording) So that recording is raw, And is a one shot deal ! No place for any mistake. Brilliant
I really isnt so bad. Playing the cello is a really good talent. Get them playing at like 6 or earlier with a private tutor and they will be able to play this series at probably a 80%+ of this cellist, by age 15 or before. The earlier you start them the better and faster they will learn. It is not enough to start at 10 and be only a part of a school orchestra. You need to learn the right way to do everything the first time and every time so you don't develop poor habits that will later inhibit extremely high accuracy interpretation of a piece of music. For instance, I only learned the first position on the cello and used it for years before playing more complex music. Since I was not introduced to the full complexity early, I struggle to find and accurately play notes above the 3rd position, and due to this inability it becomes difficult to perform the careful articulations present in pieces like this. Basically you can never progress past like 80% accuracy. It becomes easy to memorize the order of the notes in even very long songs, but it is important to memorize the correct way, rather than what is convenient. Still,despite the negatives, it is always nice to be able to play an instrument at least pretty well; I highly encourage parents to introduce their children to songs like this series, and encourage them to play any instrument.
Yeah. If I become a parent, I would show my kids all of my favorite Anime, make them listen to classical music, play piano or violin, make them love reading books, teach them meditation, all types of skills. Karate, judo. (I won't force them if they don't like it but I'll slowly make them like it.) is it bad parenting?
@@swiftsword6489 Is it not the timing of the rain and music that made this man’s heart move? Or do you take the accordance of time for granted? I don't understand what it is you question.
¡Sublime! No me canso de escuchar a Mischa. Llevo años poniendo este video al estudiar, leer o simplemente para disfrutar la maravillosa música de Bach a través de las buenas manos de este gran musico.
well, I doubt many people from the 18th century ever got the chance to hear this song when it was first erected, so consider it a blessing to those that did.
Lynn Duvall Definitely a fair point, although I am prepared to believe it was possibly his countenance aside from his hue that may have inspired that comment, however that maybe easier for me due to my colour.
After three pregnancy losses I played the Casals recording nearly every day in the house and felt so comforted. My son made it and is now a trombone player. I feel Bach was such a healer. I was a pro violinist for many years. I like the singing tone of this cello and live this cellist, and dynamics, but I like the dance movements to have more breath and lilt-
What I find absolutely mind boggling aside from the beauty of this piece is that it's the most well known cello piece in modern times yet it had originally been lost for 75 years and may have never been discovered at all...
DK wow, very interesting. I did not know this. So was it not popular in his time? or was it after his death that it got "forgotten" about? or, did time travelers have something to do with this...
SULTANARE mind blowing thought. music is so limitless and I sometimes am saddened to think of all of the songs that exist, and will exist that I will never know....music is like the language of the universe, and it's a universal language...one note goes further, faster than any other art form. there is more information in a series of notes than any sentence that could ever be spoken. they say a picture is worth a thousand words, so how many words is pure vibrational frequency worth...its transcendent, it's beyond words.
@@gman8230 J.S. Bach died in 1750. Most of his music was re-discovered by accident, when they were cleaning out the attic of his son (Johann Christian Bach) after *HIS* death in 1782...
Made me cry... so beautiful... brings back memories... I played this on my final exam .... I wasn't able to touch my cello ever since my mother died 8 years ago... I can only hope I will be able to play this masterpiece once again in my life.
Your comment made me cry. I too lost my mom and can/do feel how you feel. Remember, life goes on but they are and will always be with us...with how they raised us, how they loved us and how amazing they were. Your mom would have never wanted you to stop playing your cello. Keep your head up high and live life to the fullest. All the best to you stranger.
@@ChrisDragotta Devo concordar, Bach não é de modo algum um compositor obscuro (pelo menos não nos dias de hoje). Todo mundo que aprende música em certo ponto vai aprender a tocar alguma peça de Bach.
A most impressive performance of the artist showing not inlay his superb skil but also his deep understanding of Bach‘s music. A wonderful piece to listen to calming the mind and touching the heart.
I've been playing the Cello for 2 weeks so far and I've decided this is the piece I am aiming for (no matter how long it takes me). I can just about play the first bar, but wow, is it a stunning piece of music.
It is truly beautiful. I've only been playing this amazing instrument since mid-September. I'm in the eighth grade and I feel so inspired by Bach, it's unbelievable! 🎶❤️ I'm struggling to learn vibrato, but I'll get there. I hope. 😂
I'm a violinist of 6 years and I played this after about 2 or so. It's a great piece especially on cello it sounds gorgeous. Good luck. There are difficult techniques to learn but stick with it you'll get there
I've been playing cello a year (I played violin for 5 years then switched) I am using this as my audition piece for the summer orchestra enrichment I do. I absolutely love this piece. You'll be able to play this eventually just work on your technique and then this will come easily. Scales help too. You can get free cello music and stuff at 8notes.org
I've played cello for more than 20 years, and this is a simple piece, compared to other suites. It shouldn't take long before you are able to play it. Keep up the good work ! Cello is one of the most beautiful instruments of the world.
Jean Baptiste Leclercq Yes, I have actually learnt a good piece of this. I started learning it after 2 weeks of using the cello and didn't know the bowing actions and finger positions correctly, but now after around another week I'm really starting to get the hang of it :) Will be going for my grade 1 exam in June
I’ve listened to many, many performances/interpretations of this piece. M. Maisky, you slay this… you own this. Your performance brings me to tears of joy, because you express the sheer JOY that is in this piece. Thank you.
I have heard so many people play this piece and they all break tempo when they switch to the lower string and this guy does not. He plays this piece amazingly beautifully.
I think because he doesn't move his bow back and forth like the others do, he takes one long sweep of the bow and then tilts it or uses his fingers to generate the notes. It's way smoother and more fluid, his bow is continuously just taking nice, long sweeps.
He's my favourite aswell. The only one who studied cello with Pjatigorskij and Rostropovič. A hell of a legacy, if I may. And it can be clearly heard by how he performs. The best of the best.
@@musicgaines7170 Its meant to be played that way based on the tempo markings, they are everywhere in a more sophisticated piece like this. Its very emotional and captivating when done right, along with annunciation, vibrato, and dynamics. This piece is very captivating.
you really can find this by searching “that one cello song” I N T E R E S T I N G Edit: Holy Ling Ling! Thanks for all the likes! Yes, I know it’s a “piece” and not a song sorry bout that lol TWOSET GANG WASSUP!
To me, this was and still is the best performance of the first cello suite that has ever been recorded. I don’t think anyone can or will top it. What an astounding rendition!

I like the fact that this came out as the first result when I type "That one cello song"
Lol same
That's how I got here
Was it the right song?
That evangelio cello song
Piece, it's a piece
일 끝나고 피곤한 밤 매일 들으며 피로를 풀지요. 제일 좋은 바흐 연주 입니다.
I'm bored, so I'm gonna kill time here. This slaps 🔥🖐️
It's so fascinating to think that this music brings me chills in the same way it did for people in the 18th century....
I break down completely, I feel joy and sadness and all manner of emotions. My soul just cannot handle its beauty.
+K4inan Same, it's incredible.
well, I doubt many people from the 18th century ever got the chance to hear this song when it was first erected, so consider it a blessing to those that did.
Allen Smith hehe, erected.
+Allen Smith It was also considered an etude back then, it was considered an etude until Rostropovich recorded it and sold the records.
This man looks exactly how an epic classical musician should look
He is a magnificent and I can’t help wondering how tall he might be, does that cello not appear to be tiny in his hands?
Spoken like a true WASP!
Lynn Duvall Definitely a fair point, although I am prepared to believe it was possibly his countenance aside from his hue that may have inspired that comment, however that maybe easier for me due to my colour.
Idk man looks kinda Jewish to me
@@ThePkmnMaster54 he's Latvian born Israeli
Nineteen and a half minutes of pure skill and perfection. The fact that he can play such beautiful music faultlessly mesmerises me
After three pregnancy losses I played the Casals recording nearly every day in the house and felt so comforted. My son made it and is now a trombone player. I feel Bach was such a healer. I was a pro violinist for many years. I like the singing tone of this cello and live this cellist, and dynamics, but I like the dance movements to have more breath and lilt-
Hi , who else is watching this wonderful piece while quarantined?
@@abbreviatedalex2418 I am. Real soul music at a time of such uncertainty.
I have heard this too many times that I am able to listen to him breathing...
I am listening to it again this evening after clapping for our wonderful NHS........keep safe everyone...xxx
Many, many times over. I'm breathing it now.
I am
The cello sounds like more than one instrument playing. Such a beautiful instrument
it’s a wonderful instrument

Sublime, this rendition lifts my spirits.when I listen to this everything fades into insignificance.
this is the best performing I found in UA-cam .
FABULOUS 💙
What I find absolutely mind boggling aside from the beauty of this piece is that it's the most well known cello piece in modern times yet it had originally been lost for 75 years and may have never been discovered at all...
DK Karnoscak makes you think how many other masterpieces like this have been lost or not found yet
It’s because it’s been used in famous car commercials and in many movies
DK wow, very interesting. I did not know this. So was it not popular in his time? or was it after his death that it got "forgotten" about? or, did time travelers have something to do with this...
SULTANARE mind blowing thought. music is so limitless and I sometimes am saddened to think of all of the songs that exist, and will exist that I will never know....music is like the language of the universe, and it's a universal language...one note goes further, faster than any other art form. there is more information in a series of notes than any sentence that could ever be spoken. they say a picture is worth a thousand words, so how many words is pure vibrational frequency worth...its transcendent, it's beyond words.
@@gman8230 J.S. Bach died in 1750. Most of his music was re-discovered by accident, when they were cleaning out the attic of his son (Johann Christian Bach) after *HIS* death in 1782...
Bach's famous prelude has been enticing modern kids to classical music ever since.
Evangelion: Death & Rebirth/Ep. 8 of Netflix's Daredevil, anyone??
The book 'The Cello Suites' by Eric Siblin taught me about Casals. Absolutely great.
Justin Parola that may be true but i dont even like that mutch of the prelude, i prefer Courant and i AM a kid and i play the cello

I absolutely adore this. I play it often and it never ceases to amaze me.
Made me cry... so beautiful... brings back memories... I played this on my final exam .... I wasn't able to touch my cello ever since my mother died 8 years ago... I can only hope I will be able to play this masterpiece once again in my life.
You can! Do it for you, do it in honor of her. It's okay if it makes you feel ♥️
@@annahill7521 Thank you for your kind words! 🙂❤️
Courage
Your comment made me cry. I too lost my mom and can/do feel how you feel. Remember, life goes on but they are and will always be with us...with how they raised us, how they loved us and how amazing they were. Your mom would have never wanted you to stop playing your cello. Keep your head up high and live life to the fullest. All the best to you stranger.
You can do it. :) I think you're mom would want you to continue doing what you love
This guy looks like he was plucked right out of the 1700's. He's got like the perfect poster face.
He is beautiful
He came out of those paintings on the wall, changed his clothes and played this. 😬
pretty sure he also painted those wall art
That's a face that belongs on a medieval coin.
I fell in love for him....
Maravilha de música, é o barroco em seu estado puro, o Bach foi um dos grandes mestres da música erudita e merece mais reconhecimento.
More?
@@ChrisDragotta Devo concordar, Bach não é de modo algum um compositor obscuro (pelo menos não nos dias de hoje). Todo mundo que aprende música em certo ponto vai aprender a tocar alguma peça de Bach.
A most impressive performance of the artist showing not inlay his superb skil but also his deep understanding of Bach‘s music. A wonderful piece to listen to calming the mind and touching the heart.
I don’t know how but this heals the cracks in my soul.
What a profound way of putting it.
xpan195: Bach will always do that to you.

Me too friend
Power of 🎶 🎵
When you say " oh my", instead of WTF.
Ara ara
Great reply Patrick! Much valued!!!
When you reply with “such splendor” , instead of damn bro
When mf' s say "present" , instead here during attendance.
Gotta do it with British accent
Mischa, if you see this...Thank you... I listen in my little boat and the resonance vibrations make me feel as though I am in the cello.
Johann Sebastian Bach - there are NO substitutes. The GENIUS of this music, a true symphony for the ears, for the mind and for the soul.😉
Me after patting my lips with a napkin instead of wiping my whole face with my sleeve
music that makes you want tobe a better person
HONESTLY HAHAHHAHA
So true 😂
LMAO!!
Larry: yes!
I don't think it's possible to look any more like a person who plays classical music than this guy
Nick: yes. You nailed it.
He looks like skinnier Sylvester Stallone.
Give him a dashing grey streak through his hair and a few more gold rings.
It's the Roman
Jason Mantzoukas might not play cello.
beautiful, been listening to this for almost 6 months now. he has amazing bow technique, logato is gorgeous. love listening to him play!
Mischa toca lindamente e toca também nossa alma. Não canso de ouvir. Mais impressionante ver esses artistas memorizar tantas notas.
Who else searched for this instead of getting it recommended?
Me

E
me
me!
The years and years of playing in order to play like this is mind-blowing!
I watch your streams this is so crazy. Love your videos so much!
And that he has every single note intrinsically memorized.
didnt expect you here lmao
A waste of time?
?
@@johnrokosky once you practice it to play in one go, certain parts will flow after another.
Absolutely breathtaking masterpiece in submission of master Mischa Maisky .. nothing else to say
54 million views. There is hope for the future after all.
master piece of humanity
Y agree.

I know. That also exactly how I feel about his MAGNIFICENT BEARD!
Both music and musician.
I've been playing the Cello for 2 weeks so far and I've decided this is the piece I am aiming for (no matter how long it takes me). I can just about play the first bar, but wow, is it a stunning piece of music.
It is truly beautiful. I've only been playing this amazing instrument since mid-September. I'm in the eighth grade and I feel so inspired by Bach, it's unbelievable! 🎶❤️ I'm struggling to learn vibrato, but I'll get there. I hope. 😂
I'm a violinist of 6 years and I played this after about 2 or so. It's a great piece especially on cello it sounds gorgeous. Good luck. There are difficult techniques to learn but stick with it you'll get there
I've been playing cello a year (I played violin for 5 years then switched) I am using this as my audition piece for the summer orchestra enrichment I do. I absolutely love this piece. You'll be able to play this eventually just work on your technique and then this will come easily. Scales help too. You can get free cello music and stuff at 8notes.org
I've played cello for more than 20 years, and this is a simple piece, compared to other suites. It shouldn't take long before you are able to play it. Keep up the good work ! Cello is one of the most beautiful instruments of the world.
Jean Baptiste Leclercq Yes, I have actually learnt a good piece of this. I started learning it after 2 weeks of using the cello and didn't know the bowing actions and finger positions correctly, but now after around another week I'm really starting to get the hang of it :) Will be going for my grade 1 exam in June
Qué hermosa melodía puede crear el ser humano. Gracias, Johann Sebastian Bach für dieses Lied!!!!
I’ve listened to many, many performances/interpretations of this piece. M. Maisky, you slay this… you own this. Your performance brings me to tears of joy, because you express the sheer JOY that is in this piece. Thank you.
I have heard so many people play this piece and they all break tempo when they switch to the lower string and this guy does not. He plays this piece amazingly beautifully.
I think because he doesn't move his bow back and forth like the others do, he takes one long sweep of the bow and then tilts it or uses his fingers to generate the notes. It's way smoother and more fluid, his bow is continuously just taking nice, long sweeps.
He's my favourite aswell. The only one who studied cello with Pjatigorskij and Rostropovič. A hell of a legacy, if I may. And it can be clearly heard by how he performs. The best of the best.
Wrong. He frickin changes temp just as much as everyone else. Put a metronome to it
@@musicgaines7170 Its meant to be played that way based on the tempo markings, they are everywhere in a more sophisticated piece like this. Its very emotional and captivating when done right, along with annunciation, vibrato, and dynamics. This piece is very captivating.
there are angels who walk among us
and devils
but this man may have been touched by an angel at birth
He HITS every single note perfectly.
Indeed he does
@@andrewanderson3016 They must strive for perfection or quit and just admire those who are better than them. This is as simple as it is.
I can't say if he does, but he plays wonderfully, giving us an understanding of the music.
@@nortons7040So they "must strive" for something that doesn't exists and has never been reached by anyone...
Bullshit.
Everytime I hear a Cello solo it just puts at peace..I still very much love Upright 🎻
Eu amo suite N° 1 de Bach em cello. E não encontrei ninguém melhor do que esse músico tocando. Eu sempre navego e me emociono ao ouví-lo tocar. 😢❤
you really can find this by searching “that one cello song”
I N T E R E S T I N G
Edit: Holy Ling Ling! Thanks for all the likes! Yes, I know it’s a “piece” and not a song sorry bout that lol TWOSET GANG WASSUP!
LOVE IT lol
Wtf man. WTF
Dude that’s literally what I’m doing rn
Been searching for many months now. Finally , my destiny .😳😭😅🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That's how I found it, even though I knew the name
I'm trying to get the ice cream man in my neighborhood to make this his song for his truck. Right now it's la cuca racha.
La Cucharacha is a great old trune with a rich history.
The lyrics have to with Pancho Villa's troops being too stoned to march, or not stoned enough.
Good one haha
lol Walter
walter kersting..well,brb. Just gonna go bribe my icecream man to play this for his song 😛
This is on a completely different level, its an ART FORM now
Outstanding performance with nothing getting in the way of this absolutely perfect rendition!
Doctor: You have 20 minutes to live.
Me: *plays this video*
God: No, give him other chance
Me passaglia and fugue
That sounds about right.
And we all know what will you do in the last 30 sec 😂😂🤪
Arnold Astrada I broke into tears whenI read your comment.😭
This is my alarm. I wake up in a great mood every day.
You're going to start associating this piece with having to wake up each day and you'll begin to hate it lol
Lmao you must have it at full volume because you could fire a cannon and i'll still be laying there
Zoes Dada where did you get it please ? I have Samsung , thank you !
calinutza33 I got mine from Zedge
Do you wake up and make omelettes?
To me, this was and still is the best performance of the first cello suite that has ever been recorded. I don’t think anyone can or will top it. What an astounding rendition!
Beautifully soul moving music played. Thank you.
The perfect intonation on his chords seems to vibrate the whole room.
Sure let's you hear the math of music. Impossible to even read something simple in the background, it so takes over the brain.
My sentiments precisely. It gives it so much hearth
There are no chords on a cello
I have no doubt in my mind that this incredible power of his comes from his majestic beard
LOL
He's the other Epic Beard Man.
Lmao
A beard that goes to the fro
he is moses, come to deliver us to the land of beard!!!
The sacrifices made, the time, and the effort towards practicing is something to behold.
Absolutely gorgeous. My favourite piece, so perfectly performed.
