Hilary Hahn performs Paganini Caprice 24

[rsewellmd]

Breathtaking!!!

[cxc1234]

I wish I could know what it's like to play violin like her even for just 1 day.

[changetheworlder]

Paganini i love you

[lyresong]

still the best performance of this caprice that I've ever witnessed

[funkynosejob]

@lyresong agreed



[Loops700]

speechless..

[rafaelb1026]

Amazing , Paganini was like the first shredder but not in a annoying 80's band kinda way but in a melodic and deeply though note to note way

[abarton527]

Why am I ONLY the 300th person to like this?

[adinaj]

She's so amazing...she's as "full sounding" as a whole orchestra. I love the depth in her tone.

[dlbryant07]

i don't think i'll ever get over how incredible this is....

[Frover69]

I came buckets to this interpretation. Extremely crisp arpeggios. 3:08 to 3:24 success. : O..... I really believe she could possiblly be a cyborg. She is definately vanguarding human evolution. OH... and she is wicked hot!

[diegoricepogo]

pretty sure she plays it better then paganini himself....

[gtrslinger]

Outstanding job! :D

[MyTermodinamica]

interpretazione mediocre

[mydarkviolinangel]

Who were the stupid people whom doesn't like?

[thedolphinway]

Superb!

[haubsen]

KILLER ARPEGGIOS ARE A KILLER

[geeceegee1]

Well there are some things five year olds cant do. And paganini is one of them. Life hasnt beaten them down enough, No soul. Except for the possesed ones

[tiphaniebre]

jaime bien +5

[GEYELA1]

une déesse du violon, une performance parfaite, je viens de Jor

[zucchini2007]

PERFECTION

[FrauVonSinnfrei]

I don't know how many thousand times I watched this video, but I do it nearly every day when I go to Youtube :) I just love it!!

[WorldRevolution27]

This is amazing! She owns that violin like no one else I've ever seen

[aztekaoz]

Paganini Caprice No.24 :It is widely considered one of the most difficult pieces ever written for the solo violin. It requires many highly advanced techniques such as parallel octaves and rapid shifting covering many intervals, extremely fast scales and arpeggios including minor scales in thirds and tenths, left hand pizzicato, high positions, and quick string crossing. As a result, most violinists, even after studying for many years, still lack the technique required for such a demanding piece.

[jasbckr]

nice and amaizing performance...she`s got the talent...

[FrauVonSinnfrei]

Kennt hier irgendjemand die Geschichte "Die Fiedelgrille und der Maulwurf" ?? Eine meiner Lieblingskassetten und genau dieses Lied hat die Grille immer gespielt :) Kindheitserinnerungen ...

[ChoZoxKnightx]

@FrauVonSinnfrei Sorry i dont speak spanish.

[FrauVonSinnfrei]

@ChoZoxKnightx It's german ;) And I just asked if someone knows the story I always heard on tape when I was a child. It's about a cricket who loves to fiddle and of course as a child I never realized that it played Paganinis Caprice No. 24 ... I just loved to hear it. Maybe this brought me to play violin today :)

[ChoZoxKnightx]

@FrauVonSinnfrei yeah i know i was just kidding ;) . and cool by the way i play viola. love it!!!

[ambition415]

Simply brilliant.

[kiwipunx123]

Grate!!!!

[jocssnakepit]

EARGASMIC!!! 

[darkjeshush]

@jocssnakepit aural sex

[Djangolulu]

I always thought that when they did recording it was edited to sound perfect, but this is actually perfect. literally it is impossible to hear anything slightly incorrect at all

[stoklund]

Yes, she's the best....

[stoklund]

0:16

[sevenmtm1]

i think im falling in love...

[Ettoreks]

Fantastic

[diegobagdarrel]

i see paganini like a metal music composer of the XIX century...the notes...the tones...the history ...amazing...thanks for the music im alive

[PrincesaCavalcante]

uma das minhas preferidas de Paganini

[xoxemil]

Hilary Hahn or Alexander Markov? :)

[gostillerz]

What was she bitching about in the beginning?

[D29418]

How many tones is she producing at 2:50? Showcase performance

[timothytiptoes]

jaw-droppingly beautiful. and i'm not just talking about hilary...

[nonrhytmic]

This is amazing! I've been playing the violin myself for eight years, and this is not an easy piece! I really love her playingstyle. And i can't believe that this video only has 13 862 views!

[wankatronic]

that is a disgusting level of talent.

[tentris]

She looks like she's doing the robot... But EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE!!! loved it :D

[andyli929]

she's not in her best form... but still great

[vraellar]

believe me, Hahn can do 10x better. this sloppy for her

[LemonLimeLaughter]

because of this, I am buying a violin

[TheWowmusicfan]

3:09 and onwards, is amazing, so farshe's the only one that i heard of to do it this magnificently

[iarenay]

I've watched this a million times, and every time I watch it, I still go 'OMG'

[sexyhamburgers]

I cannot find anyone who plays this piece as beautifully as she does.

[kaybbyy]

I was very lucky to see her live at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles... It was wonderful :)

[zzzaaannnn]

i love hilary hahn version for the caprice 24 :3 some ppl say that its different or shorter than the original version.. or try to compare with heifetz or perlman versions... for me, i preffer ms hahn's interpretation of the caprice 24, it sounds very actual, i wish i could see her performing live someday :3

[actopkok]

this lady is talented, paginini was totally metal thats why yngwie malmsteen and steve vai played his stuff, by far the most impressive violinist ive ever seen, especially when she does those like chords and the wierd tapping

[Kagarn]

This has 4592 views as of writing, but the 5 year old who attempted this piece (and underperformed) received 439336. I don't get it.

[Arthuriae]

@Kagarn There was another video who was removed, don't know why, she had way more views.

[Buffalohomer]

@Kagarn that's because the video of Hilary Hahn has been deleted several times by youtube. Don't ask me why.

[voxhunden]

@Kagarn Hilary Hahn is cute. 5 year old are cuter. That's how cat-infested internet works.

[misterbg1]

@Kagarn No need to look at Hahn's videos. We can predict it will be amazing and perfect. More interesting to look at a little girl attempt/succeed!

[SuperRumpelstiltskin]

@Kagarn What 5 year old?

[MomSaysImCool]

@Kagarn Tell you what, to even that score, I won't watch the vid of the 5-year old.

[ziglouglou]

That was just an outstanding performance

[Ghostman7777]

Wow, never heard arpeggios sound so beautiful on a violin. I could hear every note In the sequence. Amazingly talented.

[turquoiseverafter]

THAT WAS AWESOME!!

[aurox2]

the best 

[jeankviolin]

Exelente!! :D
