[luthier81]

[Curatica]

He was fun!

[Radamathill]

...I want to get this documentary after listening to it for 30 seconds.

[violinonsteroids]

The song at 0:27 is Le Ronde Des Lutins

[jehovahuponyou]

YOU KNOW GOOD AND DAMN WELL THAT Mr. PERLMAN SMOKED SOME GRASS WHEN HE WAS THIS AGE - LOOK AT THAT FRO!

LMAO!

BUT IT SURE DIDN'T HURT HIS PLAYING, PLAY ON MASTER PERLMAN!

[cihad2003]

[Jctankk]

@cihad2003 Le Ronde Des Lutins - Bazzini

[operadesigns]

@cihad2003 Le Ronde des Lutins by Bazzini (Dance of the Goblins is the loose English translation).

[vokuheila]

wtf !! his "messed up" version sounds better than my best version!!

[masterexploder83]

God moves his fingers, that's all there is to it.

[GlobalJukebox]

It cuts out at the best bit! Anyone got a link to the whole intro? Where he does the finger tapping after the credits?

[malikrox]

Even if you didn't love Perlman as a violinist (which would already be very strange) you'd still have to love the guy as a person.

[TheSRalston]

Holy crap. It takes THAT amount of talent to make even what is supposed to be a "messed up" thing to sound as great as this one sounds. What an amazing performer.

[mariaumnik]

4 people didn't play every note.....

[DanDaviD7]

I Don't Played Every Note :( hahaha

[blah148]

not only is he freaking amazing but he's a great guy too!

[Aaron128920]

[DanDaviD7]

@Aaron128920 it's le ronde des lutins of Antonio Bazzini

[WaterLikey]

@Aaron128920 Perlman in Russia- Bazzini

[cklanson]

what is the song started at 0:07?

[DanDaviD7]

@cklanson Paganini Caprice Number 5.

[17jiangm]

he is a genius

[goodolarchie]

I love Itzhak, what a charismatic and humorous virtuoso.

[Sylvain894]

I would appreciate if Mr Perlman would rearrange and remake Paganini's 24 capriccios on DVDs to learn all the secrets of such wonderful musics he made up ! maybe i'm dreaming cause he recorded capriccios in 1972, in Abbey Roads studio !

[Concertanti]

I am humbled by this man in every possible way.

[outoftunefiddler]

I am looking at the response to my note where I said Perlman was a mensch...and some ogre, who can't possibly play the fiddle, wrote back saying "[W]hat a k.k."..

You shoud be ashamed.and if you DO play fiddle, I hope you get carpal tunnel syndrome!

[DHcello]

0:23-0:24: "Plus These Notes!"

[tuliopcc]

what is the last music on 0:28

[outoftunefiddler]

What a mensch!

[a1rb0rne502]

[cristinaGlopez]

[MishuTaste]

His speed is amazing. 

[angela1894]

Love the sweaty armpits

[chidori8291]

what's the song at the end?

[angela1894]

@chidori8291 The song at the end is La Ronde Des Lutins, by Bazzini

[pedroernias]

@chidori8291 ronde des luttins antonio bazzini or something like that.. it souns great on violin, but trust me it sounds better in flute

[TheGrimmChild]

@chidori8291 i think its round of the goblins by Bazzini

[rguion8]

Dorothy DeLay, his teacher, is in the background. Perlman was giving a masterclass at Aspen where Miss DeLay had setup shop. The student he's coaching here is Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg. The clip dates from the mid '70s, maybe even as late as '77. He also coached Cho Liang-Lin that afternoon.

[sneches]

hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrGunterguerrero]

Mr.Perlman, maybe one of the best violin virtuosos of our times...what a nice man ! Everybody likes him !

[ilovecereal371]

[Mrtchaikovskyful]

@joniguitar9 Polio..

[punchaloo]

@strickly4myninjas lucky!! Do you play the violin too?

[philscosta]

@strickly4myninjas how lucky you are : )

it would be a great honor to meet mister Perlman

[LadyDeerskin]

@strickly4myninjas my violin teacher knew him, and after a concert, took me backstage to meet him. and i was blown away by Mr. Perlman telling me, ' stop calling me Mister, just call me Itzy, all my friends do'. And the next concert, when we went backstage again, and i respectfully called him MrPerlman, he kind of shook my arm and said, 'I told you, my friends call me Itzy, and you are my friend, arent you?'

i still cant get over that! ^_^ That was back in my teens.

[fluffynamedkimba]

this is exactly why he's my favorite violinist- great and also humorous!

[anarchista89]

I love him:)

[CBACONPIE5]

[TwelfthRoot2]

I love Perlman's interviews! He has a great sense of humor! Oh, and he's pretty good with the violin also :-)

[1957Rotu]

Hairstyle is very 1970s. Does this clip date back to then ?

[PianoScience]

The piece song from 0:25 is called Round of the Goblins.

[MattHalfMatthew]

Dance of the Goblins actually.

Le Rondue du Lutins.

= ]

Not by Paganini. By Bazinini.

[choulapine]

la ronde DES lutins

[PianoScience]

I didn't say it was by Paganini. You are correct, it is correct to say Dance of the Goblins.

[goroundit123]

[TalonTSI95]

I don't know what level you're at but you'd probably need to be attending Juilliard or another school of similar prestige. I believe he lives in New York City.

[Emusic18]

haha i love this good sense of humor.

[ibanezno1]

I like his sense of humor...the fact that he is an amazing violinist is also nice, too. :)

[Musicprodigy09]

[Gaarageeksrule]

Ha.

Perlman is so admireable.

[GLXLR]
