Chaconne - J. S. Bach

Part II


I consider the Chaconne by J.S. Bach to be the greatest piece of music ever composed. Bach was a great gift to humanity and to musicians in particular. I never tire of studying Bach and the Chaconne has been a source of endless joy for me. The Chaconne helps me to make contact with my higher spirit. It is my goal to learn it well enough to perform it in public. I am nowhere near achieving that goal but is is one of my life's ambitions to do so. This interpretation by Gergely Sarkozy is probably the most heartfelt of all that I have heard. I can imagine him to be Bach playing his own Chaconne! RR
