Lately I’ve been listening to Bach’s various violins and cellos, especially including the legendary six Unaccompanied Cello Suites, and they really are excellent. Some pieces don’t especially strike me when I listen to a single movement on its own, but after listening to unaccompanied cello for a while in succession, I get a kind of marvelous feeling, as if I’ve been hurled into another world…… Unfortunately, the CD I bought actually has a bad sector, and just by chance the last two pieces won’t play, which is pretty depressing……
I searched online for quite a while, but couldn’t find what I was looking for. It seems that Baidu Mp3’s classical resources are indeed pitifully scarce; even searching directly by the “BWV” number wouldn’t turn them up. Of course, maybe my search skills are just bad? In the end, in a fit of frustration, I simply searched “Bach+Violin,” but that didn’t turn up many results either. Most of the useful ones were music from http://bbs.llldns.com (I can’t log in to that forum……); I don’t want to waste too much time looking for music, so I’ll just pick one at random……
By the way, where was that free webspace Mist helped me register last time? I still haven’t used it yet……
Because the link I posted before isn’t very fast, I’m changing it~

I had originally planned to look for the final movement of BWV1012, the one that’s broken on my CD, but couldn’t find it. Since the last movement of all six of these unaccompanied cello suites is called “Gigue,” when I searched for Gigue I ended up finding this third suite instead. It’s not bad either, so I’ll just post it here. The movement immediately before this one is one of the pieces of music in 《Civilization》, which I’ve already listened to so many times that I know it by heart; suddenly transitioning to this movement gave me quite a startled, excited feeling~~

Wow~~ Senior brother Butian has finally shown up~~~
If I’m looking for music to listen to myself, I won’t trouble senior brother for now; using eMule or BT isn’t difficult~ And, to say the same thing as with books, things I buy myself always look more pleasing to the eye~~~~
It’s just that if I want to find Http links to post here, it’s a bit troublesome…… The links I偶尔 find are often painfully slow too…… That part is rather annoying。。
Just now it was still okay to listen to, but now that violin link seems to have become absurdly slow. Let’s change it.
