Sayaka Shoji & Polish Chamber Orchestra - Vivaldi/Richter : The Four Seasons Recomposed 

Max Richterは「四季」に悲しみの色調を色濃く刻印した。庄司紗矢香の演奏は、その悲しみに奥深い場所で、これ以上望みようのない密度で共鳴している。斬新なリズムの躍動の最中に悲しみが吹き上がる。激しい悲しみの疾走。華やぎと安らぎの深部に寄り添うような悲しみのたゆたい。そして、終曲の、静謐が支配する鎮魂。庄司紗矢香のヴァイオリンは余すところなくMax Richterの悲しみをわたしの深部に届けてくれた。

素晴らしい。何度聞いても感動します。庄司紗矢香さん、ありがとうございます。

東京のラ・フォル・ジュルネ２０１６で拝聴いたしました。 庄子紗矢香が自然をテーマに自選し、気がついたら弾き振りダッタそうです。 なんと言うか、彼女の音楽観、音や間の取り方が浸透していて、いつにも増して心の中に入り込んで来る。シャコンヌでの音楽観が、演奏家どうしで響き合い、増幅されている気がしました。 所々に雅楽の陶酔感を覚えたのも不思議な感じがしつつ感動しました。

こんなに素晴らしい演奏と美の極みを前にすると人間の素晴らしさと生まれてきたことへの感謝・音楽の素晴らしさ・庄司紗矢香さんの演奏を聴くと一音一音の意味・命の雫・が見える。庄司紗矢香さん生まれて来てくれてありがとう❤

I travelled from Paris on purpose to listen to Ms Sayaka Shoji's performance…amazing! Thanks so much for sharing this.

She's an amazing talent ... never tire of hearing her ... bliss !!!!!!!!

BGMで聴くつもりが、聴き入ってしまう。鳥肌が。

何時も、極上の演奏を有り難う。心が癒されます。天使の囁きの様に。

the entire 48 min is awesome. Summer 1, Summer 3, Winter 2 is my choice of music when driving.

格別クラシックに造詣の深いファンというのでもないので、あくまで自分の限られた経験の範囲ですが、これほど、美しいバイオリンの旋律と音色は、いまだかつて耳にしたことがありません。ちょっと大げさですが、まるで天上界の音色のように思え、思わず眼がしらが熱くなります。

Amazing!! I get goosebumps every time I watch this video. I wish I could give this 1000 of likes!!

ヴィバルディが天才だと知る事が出来ました！迫力ある演奏でした❗️🍀

Shoji is gifted and, more, a gift.

Always hearing this once a day. Especially while workin in office. More focus and crying at the same time. Truly awesome!!! Sayaka Shoji!!!

すばらしいの 一言感動しました。日本の心 と 四季を最大に表現していると思える重厚な演奏 紗矢香さん凄い。

Magnificent Vivaldi's shifted tempo! Richter-Vivaldi duo visionary of contemporary music. Excellent timing and heart moving interpretations of both the superb violinist and the ensemble.

Sublime et romantique Sayaka Shoji au violon Stradivarius magique sous vos doigts tout aussi magiques, merci Sayaka de nous offrir toute votre personnalité, nous en sommes troublés, vous nous emportez!

The dissonance at the end of Autumn I that isn't entirely present in the official recording is so incredibly eerie and beautiful here. I come back to this recording for that most of all.

-- Un chef-d'oeuvre que Sayaka Shoji, exceptionnelle interprète, et l'orchestre parviennent à restituer de la plus belle des manières. --

Majestueux, un délice pour les oreilles et l'esprit. Bravo à l'orchestre et à Mme Sayaka Shoji, une violoniste exceptionnelle! Merci pour le partage.

Five Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Fantastic playing by Shoji!

My fucking jaw dropped to the floor after hearing this for the first time, truly a work of art

The Four Seasons is my favourite piece of music..... Depending on the day, it will open my mind or free my heart of trouble that ails me.... This composition and performance is truly awe inspiring... Thank you to all involved for sharing your gifts with us....

I think I like this interpretation more than Richter's original. The lovely slow build up of momentum (mass, not speed) in the first movement was more dramatic than Richters more measured approach. And there were other differences And Sayaka Shoji as a violinist is just... pure perfection. Somehow she combines a high degree of precision, with deep emotion, something that is not easy or common even among the best. I only intended to listen to the first movement, but I couldn't pull myself away and actually listened to the whole performance twice in a row in a single sitting.

Actually, this performance was outstanding! Nice interpretation and instruments very well balanced!

Fabulous as this is, not the least of which is the gorgeous Sayaka herself, I still dream of a rendering of Vivaldi's magical original by her.

初めて聴きました。なんて難しい曲なんでしょう。しかし、とても美しい。原曲に侘び寂びが加わった感じがしました。沙耶香さんの演奏、素晴らしいとしか言いようがない。 あまり詳しくない自分ですが、凄く印象に残りました。また、聴きたいです。

Excellent! Somewhat hypnotizing. Cannot stop listening.

the first time I heard her playing I got goosebumps all over my body

Imagine a BBC Nature documentary narrated by sir David Attenborough with this heavenly peace of music as a soundtrack

Beautiful and sharp and emotional.

Amazing. Just Amazing, She performances Vivaldi really Awesome.

Sayaka Shoji , talento musical, y dulzura , gloriosa ,, !!!

Emocija,Inspiracija,Skromnost,Drskost,Nova dimenzija,Virtuosa Geniuosa,BRAVO.Very GRACES from SERBIA!

素晴らしい。なんと素晴らしいのだ。えらいものだ。ブラボーー

PERFECT PURE ART MASTERPIECE AWESOME AMAZING

stunning! awsome performance.

I love both , the original and this recomposed, i can hear it twice or thrice it nuts me for good , it's inspiring and also i can hear it in my mind all the day long, thanks Sayaka , Max , Antonio ... And skripa

素晴らしすぎる。生でお聴きしたい！

Magnific!!! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

The more times I come back to listen, the more I like it. One of the few times in recent years that a modern composer has managed to pull off a new classical type of composition for violin and Orchestra. Ok it uses the Four Seasons Vivaldi as its basis, but the composer tweaks it here and there with new and worthwhile improvisations to achieve some wonderful results.

天才！　ワンダフル！　素晴らしい！　beautiful ！ 　bravo！　bravo！

I have heard parts of this creeping onto tv now. Come back again and starting to really like this. Showcases just how good the original Four Seasons by Vivaldi was and is !!

The latest upload of Sayaka Shoji full of her charm.Dear skripachka, many thanks for the upload. I hope you upload her Ligeti's violin concerto in 2009. It will surely be a big surprise.

this work is impressive, Sayaka Shoji♥!!!!! & orchestra! plays in all the work , A.Vivaldi! elements with the perfect blend of Pēteris Vasks!, great symbiosis with the notes of Vivaldi concert and expression Pēteris Vasks in long notes of attack, stress, lisandos pianissimo. huge sound masses suspended in a simulated silence and pulse and tension, etc, .is a work of art!

One of the best live recordings on youtube, bravo!

素晴らしい。感動と、エネルギーをもらいました。

absolutely stunning

Bravo Shoji, bravo Richter, bravo Vivaldi. Se junta el talento de 3 colosos de la música y hacen de una perla inexplicable. Vivaldi sin duda dejaste una joya para la eternidad que tanto compositores e intérpretes de élite nos darán sorpresas como ésta en cada oportunidad.

BRAVO ! BRAVO ! BRAVO !!!!!!!

No tengo palabras para expresar lo que se siente al escuchar esto, los arreglos son fantásticos

The first movement of spring has me in awe

So beautiful!

i cried! i can hear this whole day

彼女の奏でる心地良く優雅な四季は魂の一服の清涼剤でしょう。

thank You, you music is the best!!!!

Brilliant. Thank you.

Beautiful

パンツルックでバイオリンて、とてもしゃれた感じ。天才少女も大人になった。

summer -III is just amazing!

Coincido que este es un tema trillado, fue la primera obra que aprendí de memoria hace 60 años y ahora suena contemporánea y tan hermosa como siempre, ciertamente aire fresco en todas las estaciones. Sayaka Sohi es una revelación sensible, revolucionaria y magnífica. El arreglo de Mar Ritcher es: maravilloso, Inspirador, sobrecogedor, emotivo. GRACIAS.

Como me encanta esta violinista, jamas me canso de escucharla.

this is stunning, ty for uploading

切ない旋律を弾かせたら特段に繊細に表現する素晴らしいバイオリニスト。

Perfect perfect perfect 🌊

Beautiful Plying the Violin and Sound is Wonderful ! Goooood ! 👍🏻💖

she's awesome!

Wonderful !!!!

POR SIEMPRE ,SAYAKA SHOJI ,, !!!!!!!!

素晴らしい❣️

Sublime

EXTRAORDINARIO.

Winter 1 is by far the best interpretation. No rushing and pretty clean notes!

Genius......

사와까 쇼지 님.. 고맙습니다. 와따시와, 최 데스요. 당신의 진심으로 인해 나의 눈물은 아직도 흐르고 있습니다...

庄司紗矢香さんを知ったことを幸せに思います。

Wow, that's wild. I hope it gets traction. At least Ms. Shoji should go around playing it, having taken the time to learn it.

sugoi! beautiful

Majestuosa 💞

Sayaka Shoji, I love you!

Sublime. Obrigado a todos.

GOD SAVE YOU, MY SAYAKA.

Hermosa interpretación!!

I like it ..

스피카토 로 끝내는 멜로디가 아주 인상적입니다. 잘들었습니다.^^

Bravissima!!!!!

I think that this play is very funtastic. Which countory is chosen here to describe "Four seasons"?

I think summer III is absolutely amazing, does anyone know if there is a recording of the is available to buy

I want to die hearing this... woow

Okay the four seasons was quite good to start with

The baroque is breathtaking modern.
