Mucho le escuche a Perlman, desde Bach hasta Brahms, pero esta interpretacion del seg mov del Bruch, es alienigena, brillante tecnicamente, y de una humanidad y delicia que me emociono hasta la medula.
121ego, perhaps you are suggesting that Bruch must have had Jewish forbears to have written this music? Apparently there is no evidence of it, and consider how successfully (for example) English musicians have developed jazz and rock music, which was the creation of black Americans. Some cultures just produce good music, and others that do likewise appreciate it and cross-fertilisation takes place. But I don't mind if Bruch had Jewish ancestry.

I do apologize and thank you for making your point of view clear to me. If we could talk face to face, comments would not present a problem. Communicating as we do with only the written word often gives an entirely different meaning to what has been written. I appreciate your insight and am pleased we now understand one another. Your knowledge of music and history is impressive.
Watching him play this passage makes me think about the Creator and His design for the Mind of Man. The complexity of the craneal sinopsys with the muscles that controls the left hand fingers and the sensors located in the inner ear blows my mind. No wonder it was recorded "Let us make Man in OUR likeness and image" and then, "Look, Man has become like ONE OF US". In deed. This proves that.
Any wonder why Psalms (150 of them) is the most voluminous Book in the Hebrew Tanak? These notes praise the "image and likeness" of Man to Jehovah, whe they said "Let US make Man in OUR likeness and image". Is it any wonder then that all three performers - Solomon, Bruch and Pearlman - are all Jews? None, whatsoever.
@121ego The contribution of jews to culture, science, music and indeed other fields, not to mention the foundations of Western culture is remarkable -- but please note that Bruch, although he wrote pieces based directly on Jewish music, apparently had no Jewish ancestry and was raised as a Protestant. The Nazis got this wrongas well!
@alphasun1 - you are right, yet you must remember he lived in an era not far from the persecution of Jewsms in Spain, in which many of the settlers had to adopt "Christian" names to survive being deported and all your possessions confiscated by the Church. Names like Montagnana, Cirer, Estrella, Montana, etc were all from Jewish background Christianized. Many orphans were then reared by Protestant families.
every other recording of this song i find myself moving away from it after about a minute.. only Itzhak can make me listen to the whole thing :) as beautiful as they may be, other recordings dont even compare.
He is so one with his instrument, it IS his voice- and what a voice! The combination of the timbre of his Stradivarius and his consummate skill are really so incredible as to be unattainable by mere mortals.
MADRE MÍA CÓMO ME PONE EL CUERPO ...SOLO DE ESCUCHARLO NO SE QUE ME PASA ...SE ME ERIZA TODO EL CUERPO....QUÉ MARAVILLOSO ES ,NUNCA ME CANSO DE ESCUCHARLO.....
este 2do movimiento me llega profundamente,esa ternura en las cuerdas de Perelman y tambien lo he escuchado por Shlomo Mintz ,cala en lo mas hondo del ser humano y despierta emociones que solo pueden traducirse en lagrimas
I always strikes me of how effortless he makes everything look. Lots of other great player look like there in pain and are bent a strange angles but he is always just so fluid and relaxed. I wish so much I could become that comfortable with a piece like this.
extraordinary 2nd movement of this violin concerto that gave everlasting fame and put a name in history of classical music(romantic in this case) Max Bruch, as always Perlman put the instrument in the ultrasensitive mood, dreamingly fantastic
4:45 - The color on this note is sublime. Following this is a new, and heart-wrenching phrase. Simply phenomenal performance on one of the most beautiful and passionate pieces of musical literature.
RaginIrv - I the same passage jumped out at me as well I've never heard it phrased that way before. I love Zucherman's recording of the piece, but this takes the cake.
Yes, agreed. Bruch's concerto #1 is my definitive favorite. Not ONE of but the greatest violin concerto ever IMO and one of the best pieces of music that has ever been written in the history of music. The phrasing of the violin melodies combined with the dramatic and subtle orchestra overlays is heart wrenching and deep. Pure soul written/expressed through music.
Perlman is spellbinding with this performance. His vibrato is unsurpassed. This Bruch VC is one of the All-Time Best VC; such romance, beauty, and sentiment it leaves me speechless. A HUGE BRAVO TO BRUCH and PERLMAN.......
