Igudesman & Joo at Trondheim Chamber music festival

[MrPlaywork]

i guess one can rationalize anything. And they take it to the bank. Artists they are not. Funny they are not.They're not even clever. And , they miss. Bringing in a young audience???? Just listen to the pablum they spew from their mouths.

[doothless]

Who is the interviewer asking such stupid questions?

[blasphemymaster]

How do you pronounce tomato? Is it tomato or tomato?

[VaniaEmerald]

at 0:07 Joo make some mistake..

But It's hard to hear it, because Laughter..

I love I&J <3 <3

[MatthewRider1]

I love the attitude of these guys. My friend is a classical musician and he is sooooo serious about his craft and about how he teaches his students that I feel sorry for him. He can never just enjoy listening to music anymore without subconscious criticism.

[geitekop507]

This time he had his pants on....

[HolySnail]

i like how they pull things off, you don't feel they are mocking classical music, rather the players

i mean they have shown enough 'serious' skills in their performances, if that isn't obvious enough you cannot play so skillfully (and to act at the same time) if you are not 'serious' about it

i guess people just don't quite get it when they don't play instruments, how hard it is to get to their level but listening to them is purely simple and enjoyable, i really like them

[kubarebo]

@HolySnail I agree. It takes lots of training to make it look effortless. Go and see a ballet. If you see the dancers' effort, it's a lousy performance. Only when it looks like they do it without sweat, they can be considered to have done a good job. Igudesman and Joo are experts at what they do, and it's neither trivial nor easy nor taking away from anything, whether you're concerned about music or stagecraft. I'm sure they a pooped after a show, it just stays backstage like it should.

yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[maewe]

joo is supersexy in this video!

[darkwitch442]

@maewe he's always sexy! =P

[sumimimi0]

i hope by singing this video those people who hates classics like classics now.. -like my age, 10-30, when i told my friends that i loved classics, they thought i was crazy,,

[SHINYamAHA21]

The quationair from the woman was so dull for Igudesman & Joo the incredibly talented already musician and the genius humor minded artists.

Music is a fun and joy when you are able to play right, indeed.

I love these guys! Bonne Chance~

[animeninjamusic]

1:23 fail but funny

[likaj69]

how stupid journalist can be with qestiuons? Totaly unprepared journalist! Listen to her third qestion? She asked world's best chamber musicans if they ever play serious? Oh my God! No, no!

[mariag1960]

obviously, only very good and serious musicians, who have worked very hard and are very talentes, can do this kind of stuff. I admire you very much, and thank you for your work!!!

[loyolean]

Sie sind sehr kreativ.... wunderbaaaaarrr...!!

[orch87]

I don't understand how people think tthey are 'making fun' of music. Its takes a serious academically minded musician to able to make these comparisons with a vast repertoire of music, They really find that depth as it helps the audience to understand how classical music s largely linked to everything else and helps a wider audience to make sense of music by looking for what is being portrayed.

[boly666]

what's the name of the music 0:18?

[MisterAlbertoPiano]

I will survive

[ericlikesyou]

Europe the final countdown

[BanzaiViet]

Lmao joo looks like an overgrown kid jumping around in the backround!

[alptraumgeiger]

hahaha.. oh wow.. that was truly awful. i love them. and how aleksey always looks like he's wasted xP

[yuexexes]

worst interviewer ever....

[catrech67]

the poor interviewer seemed quite intimidated by them....probably she didn't even notice how she was being teased

these two combine classical music and intelligent entertainment on a very high level....more classical musicians should loosen up without losing good taste.....

thanks to both of you

[manuelcolloto]

chuecan2007 ; I know some bitches that

are at least 10 times less meaner than the interviewer.

[kohtianyi]

the stupidest interviewer

i mean come on

'making fun of classical music' ? that is so offensive

[chuecan2007]

man the interviewer is mean as a bitch

[soyeonchunsa]

I never once felt they were making "fun of" classical music, ever. They are musical geniuses, as well as comical ones. I actually felt that the interviewer was being offensive by asking such questions!

[varfordogjesus]

please, come to Sweden, you are gifted and talented!!! I am a muscician on my own, i love classical music but i dont always love the strict and austere environment. You guys have to be the happiest classical muscicians in world!!! You are great!!

[terronliuksalento93]

please, come to verona, in italy.. you are so funny =)

[Elikuran]

please come to portugal *.*

they`re so talent and original =D

[max200184]

[XAROPESY]

[Desmonddd2002]

Fuck

People laughs in our concert which annoys us seriously

[maxdesp]

I wonder if they speak german when they are alone together...

[rockmuschel]

[jakandmusic]

[renogwapo]

[sinenat]

[LaLoTanZt]

[oskr007kar]

no se podria subtitulado estoy seguro que dijeron cosas chistosas

[seancoapa]

y por ke mejor no te pones a estudiar ingles!!!

[MaGaO]

Bueno, no es tanto lo que dicen como cómo lo dicen. De hecho tengo el DVD (resumen, no han editado el espectáculo completo) de "A little nightmare music" y con un poco de trabajo se podría subtitular sin demasiadas dificultades.

[Lucifero888]

you are the best!!!!fantastic!!i hope to see your concerts once!!

[zelda12331]

:( I wasnt able to se the concert. Im a big fan.

[Sabin06]

Joo is running around and jumping too lol great guys they are

[ChrisWatch]

lol these guys are the best. Making fun of classical music. THem?? yea if that was only the case I'm sure every comedian would be up on stage throwing out beethovens appasionata and making fart noises as they make perverted jokes and puns with the word "CLIMAX" or in the peice. But these guys are clever not mocking. Their playing is superb technically virtuousis and musically magical. getting lost in their music is easy and to any musician you know they have a great respect for their craft.

[musicalbasics]

i agree. these guys are fantastic. and classical music is good, if done right ;)

[pollakmatias]

this may be the most incredible set of videos I've ever watched....nothing harder than to make a german jurnalist laugh lol

[Col1571]

These guys are just fantastic. I'm a pianist myself, and I look up to Richard Joo. He's hilarious!

[intthis]

there's something really hilarious about seeing a very serious classical pianist leaping around a stage and accidently punching one of the stage lights... i've idolized richard joo for many years... but now he's just in a different league.

[jwoolicious]

love the interview. xD

[DoriRomantic]

Best for ever..

[theasder]

I agree, they are amazing!

[Failein]

man i love these guys! they are the best!
