Shostakovich - Violin Concerto No.1 Mvt.3 - Sayaka Shoji 3/5

[DukeYorkKJ53]

What a performance !

Possibly not for David Oistrakh, Shostalovich had composed this piece for Sayaka Shoji.

[mulambo420]

this bitch tore me a new asshole

[Tchaikovskyization]

pq tal movimento é tão triste?

[plumjam]

I've been a classical music fan for 25 years, but this has to rank as my favourite performance (on Youtube at least).

Perfection really.

And that's all in just 240p, imagine it in 360p ;-)

[peopleinsorrow]

Very beautiful performance!

[DarkLoveFashion]

Buena ejecución y muy buen comienzo pero... creo que esta musica no va a ningún lado, no tiene una dirección ni sentido real. Sigo creyendo que los mejores compositores del mundo fueron los que vivieron en el barroco.

[bartolomedc]

@DarkLoveFashion No jodas carnal, la música no se quedó en el s. XVIII ni en el XIX, si no puedes escuchar la música de tu propia época algo tienes mal, tu gusto no evolucionó, tampoco tu conocimiento. Vives en tinieblas, con las luces de las velas.

[borntowitness]

beautiful.

[gonzales8765]

I started crapped my pants at around 4:05.

[hamadah4]

Heartwrenchingly beautiful....

[Elmothefuzzle]

jack nicholson is directing the orchestra

[abcdnike]

her bow is very beutiful 6:32

[abcdnike]

so beutiful, i looove shostakovitches music

[ivancheviolin]

she's stunning ..wow! goes for every single note ...no more words about her

but the director...he looks like Jack Nicholson hhhh

[noguitango]

Perhaps NHK broad cast did not play second movement fbecase too long for play all movement.

[mr00aznkid]

But anyways I keep coming back to this video because it's just too great. :[

This movement is so wow you just can't put a word for it.

[mr00aznkid]

And her octaves....GAHHH! :( I wish I could play them that beautifully. This is just sublime! 3 weeks later and I am still listening.

[cemr]

She did not play for Yanni?

and if so ...

Is this concert is older?

[throbbingguru]

だいすきです!

[gxtthebest]

Heard this music played by Maxim Vengorov....

[Noxianfiend]

Tragically beautiful.

[DevilViolinist]

The conductor at the beginning is JACK NICHOLSON!!!!!!!!! *gasp*

[chienwen81]

haha... No wonder he looked familiar.

[DevilViolinist]

Lol :)

[humbledog1984]

Uncanny playing. Too good to be true, but it is.What an extraordinary movement this is. Sheer genius. Totally satisfying music.

[workbook83]

c'est mou... rien ne vaut oistrakh

[mentolkees]

Sergey Khachatryan does.

[shamrock929292]

Dead on - it's passionate and sensitive at the same time

[nvidiafan0909]

Best version on youtube so far :)

[lopata32]

If not to count Kogan's, of course.

[dagdas01]

Is his entire performance on here? I can only find the ending :(

Which is still amazing don't get me wrong...but I'd like to hear the entire thing O.O

[lopata32]

There is no entire concerto, but passacaglia is in related videos.

[oatboy]

this is the passacaglia

[erikkournikov]

certainly the most beautiful octaves i ve ever heard

[erikkournikov]

this violin has a soul

[C182Skylane]

Well, she's certainly doing an awesome interpretation here. But - I don't know about you people, but at least for me the far more fascinating an really heart-crushing thing is the music itself that Shostakovich composed and that I so often must not hear because it's just too much for me.

[Violinfanatic]

@C182Skylane Yes, the music is amazing. But remember, if it weren't for the musician's awesome ability and gift, the composer's music would never be heard in a way that it desveres to be heard. Sayaka played Shostakovich's creation in a way that we can understand why the composer himself was a genius. On the other hand, if I took out my violin and tried playing this same piece for you, you'd think Shostakovich was a fool. Thank goodness for talented violinists.

[seattlegrrlie]

@Violinfanatic Yes, the soloists interpretation is everything. The same piece can sound so different when played with different hands. And we who hear it argue over what is better, which really it's about each person's individual soul. Did the soloist say what I wanted to hear from this piece?

[unnameableuser]

@Violinfanatic I would think that you are "a fool" :D and not Shostakovich. Thank goodness for talented composers and also for talented interpreters.

[shalloee]

This girl will have a big future

[iveacrazycousin]

how old is she now?

[ocramizz]

She's 25 now.

[markellams]

This is amazing, exactly how this mvt should be, full of emotion, passion and depth.. I love it.. And at her age to have such a feeling for this concerto is just even more amazing.

[musique55]

she brought me to treas.

[flutegirls]

She looks so like Akiko Suwanai.Both same hair length and style

[adidas01003]

Akiko is prettier...

[shamrock929292]

you're a troll

[throbbingguru]

That's TROLL--with a capital T and a capital ROLL. As for Sayaka, she is AMAZING.

[shamrock929292]

agree

[Waeweas]

This is a very good interpretation but Leonid Kogan just puts the full amount of emotion and ferocity into it.

[maestrojeremy]

Not bad at all. I know it's a violin concerto, but I was particularly impressed by the horns.

[Steinway1girl230]

BEAUTIFUL!!!!;-) keep on playing!!!!

[AZNCUTIE999999]

wow, very very good, this is girl plays from the heart, unlike hilary hahn and sara chang, I think my fav. recording will always be perlmans oistrakhs.

[jongpilyun]

Hillary Hahn is one of the most expressive violinists of our time. Listen to her version of the Lark Ascending ffs.

[lolmanerik]

yes yes... of course

[musique55]

I kind of agree with you, not on Sarah Chang though. I like all of them, but this girl is really very special. I am very impressed by her musicality... I mean at this age, she sounds way too mature for her age.

[metalheaven]

amazing
