this is what happens when the two of the greatest friends come together to share feelings with music. Absolutely Sublime. There are 2 more versions each progressing and you can tell they've had more experience and more friendship as they are more intertwined in each recording
It's kind've sad but sweet. There's another version of them playing this, but it's a newer recording. Seeing the younger them, and the older them brings a tear to the eye...
Such artistry,,such virtuosity,,,performed in such a friendly attitude and atmosphere. The rapport that these two have adds to the enjoyment. Many thanks for posting,,and best wishes.
This is the best violin and viola duet ever performed!! Too bad that there are not any musicians today with the same caliber. Perlman and Zukerman had something special.
This is the most amazing perfomance of this piece ever recorded in history!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They make it look SOOOOO easy! It's a real joy to watch them play because they are enjoying it sooo much!
This is by far the greatest playing of this piece as I've ever heard it. It astounds the mind as to what a musician is capable of doing with what is considered a "simple" and "outdated" instrument in these hip-hop times. As a violist/violinist myself, I can only aspire to be as good these greats. How are there 3 dislikes on this video anyway?
It must be nice to be the best in the whole world at something....I dont think Ill know from personal experience but Mr Pearlman is it...top of the food chain,none better.....thanks for the post.
I'm playing this this summer with a friend of mine... when I first heard this piece when I just switched to viola, I dreamed of being able to play this. It's really hard, but very beautiful.
I can play her favorite part

Ahhh. The classic recording.
Despite the low quality of the video (don't forget it was made in 1977!), the sweetness of the violin and the solid viola playing still penetrates.
It's like eating a Ferrero Rocher. The individual layers are perfectly made, and together they are extremely enjoyable.
A most wonderful rendition.
