- World-renowned cellist Misha Quint performs Bach's Air in the G String, Aria as a second encore in his recital with pianist Svetlana Gorokovich at Duquesne University in 2007.
One of the best cello versions I 've ever heard.

from wikipedia:
"The original piece is part of Bach's Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major, BWV 1068, written for his patron Prince Leopold sometime between the years 1717 and 1723.
The title comes from violinist Wilhelmj's late 19th century arrangement of the piece for violin and piano. By transposing the key of the piece from its original D major to C major, Wilhelmj was able to play the piece on only one string of his violin, the G string."
Quint plays in D, the original key.
The best cello performance i’ve ever seen. Perfect technique. Emotion from the start to finish. Forgive my english.
I agree !!
and your English is perfect! Sr. Cebolinha!
Cello is probably the perfect instrument for this sublime music. Deep, rich, mellow and haunting. I chose Air on a G String for a special wedding anniversary renewal of vows, but my husband died before the November anniversary date. Very emotional music for me now.
This is wonderful. I love that first note - it starts almost faltering, and grows in confidence, like someone struggling to say something very important.
What a great metaphor! Or like someone who is learning how to play the cello (like me), and getting more confident the more they play.
Wonderful crescendo
It was J. S. Bach trying to let me know that he composed this Piece for me!. ♫•♡•♫
I love this thought!.... and I can say I "hear" that somehow! (in my heart and soul) (*•.♡.•*´)
If this performance, of this piece, was the last thing I heard on this earth I would pass from your lives a happy man.
Cello is one of the most beautiful instruments ever
You have a good taste Janek! I am a cellist - hehe. Thank you...
His playing saved my life.
How?
When it comes to the emotions and words that pop up to my head when I hear this, all I hear is “Unrequited love” or how romantic feelings would be interpreted on paper; tragic, painful at times and most importantly meaningful and beautiful.
omg what a beautiful cello performance... words cannot describe it
this man has played the song how it was meant to be played
When I want to her this song I always come back to this video.
11/2022. Please never take this down
This is probably my favorite version of anything i have ever heard. Since the last 9 years when i first found this video i have never encountered anything close to this.
Beautiful thoughtful performance. Gorgeous phrasing and bowing and rich full sound.
Amazing, the best cello version I've ever listened.
I totally agree! ♫•♡•♫
whenever i want to enjoy the AIR, i search this video... thanks for posting :)
너무 좋으네요 첼로연주 심신을 안정시켜 주네요👏👏👏
My late father, as do I, love you much Misha.
I started my listening to classical music because of this pefromance. It's christ awesome.
Se eu ouço mil vezes, mil vezes me emociono!
내가 슬픈지도 우울한지도 모를 때 내 등을 어루먼져주는 두드려주는 음악.. 최고다.
위로받았어요. 땡큐.
Beautiful piece of music. Thank you.🙏
このUA-camにある「G線上のアリア」のなかで一番いい、出だしのところで涙が流れるぐらいに情緒的だ。
This is so beautiful, I also immediately burst into tears. Bravo!
Gorgeous and passionate. I’ve been learning cello as an adult for about a year and a half. I can’t wait to play this one. Thanks so much for sharing! 🎻
Sally MJ I had learned cello for almost 5 years when I was young. I stopped learning cello because of busy days. I think the cello is very beautiful musical instrument. I love music, so when I become an adult, I will play cello again and other instruments, too! If I hadn't stopped playing, I could play this one now..;(
Sublime! Lovely playing by both!
If there's Music in Heaven...that's THE ONE! This is definitely my" Music... always and forever! Mr Quint, you have all my respect and admiration. I am delighted with your performance. This magnificent Piece brightens my soul!. I watch this Video very often...mornings and nights...so I will experience an indescribable Peace at the day's beginning and end! Thank you so much. Your are an incredible Musician!
And I am still here...again...and again...and again.....because the is the most beautiful Music in the World, and I like the thought that J.S. Bach composed this magnificent Piece for me....just for me, and I am so conected with it!!......and I am here also because Mr. Quint performs it like no other!. Such perfection!!
(that's how I feel in my heart and soul).

I love the first long stroke.
beautiful simply beautiful...
The first note played on the cello brings it to another level
Lots of emotions and feelings here. I can hear clearly what it says.
What does it say?
Poetic very much. Before getting to know Bach, I used to give music just a concept of sounds. However, what I realized is actually music is composed of all poetic elements inside of human. Truly, I can say a musician is not the instrument player. They are talented at touching on the spiritual parts of human very sensitively using the invented instruments.
great comment
글이더아름답다. 시인
Partially true; arts are the embodiment of beauty you can find in every element of life (death included), and each discipline should be apreciated by their elements. But what what is the real element on all arts is rhythm, wich is the meassured movement of all things in excistence, not only fine arts. The arts just happen to sense that (poetry, painting, music...).
very beautiful harmony... I'm feeling comfortable and happy now although I never feel that...
언제 들어도 좋은 G선상의 아리아 음악의 대가 바하님 고맙습니다
So wonderful! Love this so much!
you can even feel that they are LIVING the song, is just amazing
I usted put this son while give the breakfast to mi father , he has 98 years old.
It's a magic and beautiful moment in my life.
Semplicemente fantastico. Deve essere magnifico sentire l' archetto che struscia sulle corde producendo un suono così magnifico. Bach e' il migliore.
The more often I listen to it, the more beautiful and intens it appears to be. No such performence of Bach's Air on Cello on the Internet. Thank you for posting!
It's a very beautiful piece that everyone loves but those who hate have no soul at all.
that piece was right on!!!!!!!!!!! i am a fan of this kind of music :) it was so beautiful! you two were in perfect harmony! to the pianist and cellist please please please please please keep up the awesome work! and to the pianist you did great :D
Breathtaking.
fantastically beautiful ..
shivers hearing this and my eyes can't stop swelling ..
thank you for posting this beautiful piece of art ..
Can't stop listening to it!
This tune always pulls on my heart strings.
too beautiful not to shed a tear...
This is "The Gift" I think... I am happy to listen to their Air on the G String, Aria .
Thank you so much both of Misha Quint .
Beautiful. Thank you.
I enjoyed this performance and thank for sharing.
Air on the G string. ironically played on the A string
+Chris Hsieh this song ismeant to be played on violin so cellos have to go a octive higher
On the violin alone you can't play this on the G string, the finger position would be waaay so high
Ironically you didn't understand irony...are you American..?
Cool to see music people arguing about specifics. Applaud given
Soooo beautiful!
I absolutely adore this song.
Absolutely incredible. Totally felt the passion. Bravo!
Makes me slowly fall on my back in slow motion while the chaos surrounds me in silence as this song is playing at the background.
No me canso de escucharla, simplemente maravillosa
Why would anyone dislike this video? Do they just hate beautiful things?
I'm Korean. 제가 출근할 때마다 듣는 "G선상의 아리아"입니다. 첼로의 마음을 울리는 선율과 피아노의 합주가 마음을 감동시킵니다.
Fantastic music!
South korea?
That is the way it should be played ... Most play in a very strict time... All the rubato in this was fantastic.
My God !!
Dave.
Bach's Air on G string is my one and only favorite instrumental music I want to hear. Quint's performance is close to the original music composed by Bach. The music expresses the intensity of emotion of a person in love for another.
It can express the love of God for sinful man who turned away from his creator.
The intensity reaches its peak as the music nears its end, and somehow you ask for more.
Awesome!
It's soothing and really touching but i do not know why. Guess that's why it's a great piece. Thank you.
Absolutely wonderful version of one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. I love the piano accompaniment with the classic bach counter-point.
I totally agree!, I use to say...this is my Music...because I feel in my heart that J.S. Bach has composed this magnificent Piece for me!.
I feel so connected with this Music! ♫•♡•♫
he's captivating
I think he played it in a more rubato and romantic style than a crisp even Baroque tempo as Bach is normally performed. But he is a world class performer, so he gets to play off the leash of preconceived convention and beautifully he does!!
Beautiful! I prefer the cello over the violin for this piece. It gives it the emotional depth that only the cello can bring. Brilliantly player by Misha Quint. Thanks for sharing this lovely rendition.
Vraiment Excellent ! Une Magnifique Interprétation Pleine de Sentiments !!!!! Bravo !!!!!!!
What a wonderful performance!
breathtaking
I searched for this piece played really on the G string, this is beautiful!
I experienced Eternity in less than 5min. Thank you, Bach!
Fantástico, te eriza los cabellos.....
so much beauty just in that first note
Too beautiful! 美到不行的大提琴。
So touching.
It fills me with joy and happiness
BRAVO !!!!!
這是我最喜歡的版本,謝謝 Misha Quint。
Un air qui pénètre l'âme d'un musicien . très belle interprétation
absolutely fantastic
마음이 정말 편안해지네요
Pure bliss
this is so a beautiful version i almost cried
beautiful
Bach originally composed this as an orchestral suite. 'Air on G string' from what I know is an arrangement by someone else, basically Bach's composition for a string instrument and the piano, not necessarily the violin. He is playing it on the G string btw
still breaks my heart every time.
In our highschool symphony orchestra, at State, we played the version highlighting the Cellos (We had a LARGE cello section, 20+). That night we could have played 3 pieces, but we played Jupiter then Aria, with the Cellos taking the Violin part. We won state that year. First and still (just checked) the only high school in Indiana history to win all 3 Band, Choir and orchestra state finals in the same year. I was part of the group that did it first and its happened a few other times for us :) God I miss playing my cello.
Amazing!! Wonderful!!
Why must pins and needles envelope my heart as I listen to such glorious music
beautiful!!!! BRAVO!!
so great!!
Me too
love this melody, my masterpiece to die with
Amazing - I found myself holding my breath at the end...
It ’s wonderful.
@llewcellist thanks for the history lesson. Highly appreciated. I didn't realise this was why the song was thus named.
Sublime... Is it Bach or Quint who makes me tear up as I listen to this Air on g string??
Deceptively simple, flowing, unattainable calmness of an artist.. thank you for the video..
MORE PLEASE.
how could those 33 people dislike this music, that brings my soul to existence? a tragic life.
Amazing amazing amazing... bravo!
best music and play!
Fantástica música, yo vengo del rock pero ante esto hay que quitarse el sombrero
Beautiful!
Really beautifullllll....... I love it
