the octaves at the beginning are just.............. perfect~
my teacher always told me that when your octaves are perfect they should sound like one sound (like for example when you play the open A string all the harmonics are played as well)
Fuck man, this is amazing!!! wether she plays like that cuz she's forced to practice 12 hours a day or because she really loves music and she's passionate and devoted to it, this girl knows how to play strings...
i agree that there is definitely reverb, but she is awesome not a word there. but still its the hardwork and not herself in the piece. try jiri vodicka and his live unedited performance of this piece
Chinese people are extremely hard working. I am pretty sure she spent countless hours practicing every single day! She deserves it, and I just think she's brilliant.
@Silvoleon No, it is simple math: for every genius in US, China has 5. Anyone can put in long hours. But only the talent one can be successful at PERFORMANCE level. China is going to rule the world: music, Olympic, science, engineering. Just simple math.
@wanyatkit The genius in the US are germans, chinese, mexicans, french, russians, etc... US just offer the money. Yes, the genius people exist in that countrie, but is a little number. Is not a provocation, is just the true.
@zmaacrekk Yours is the traditional melting pot theory where great minds come to the land of opportunity (US) and proper.

This discourages people to come to US and different ethnic groups are fighting over what is remaining of the economic pie. The pot is NOT melting anymore.

Tianwa Yang played this 8 years ago when she was 13.
Now, after studying in US and Germany, she is a brilliant/beautiful young violinist with several recordings. She just made her US west coast debut in Seattle on May 9, 2009.
Let me translate for manuel here, he means to say she looks as if she is 13 years old, but seeing how Asians in general look younger than their actual age, she likely is 25 years old. I don't get why youtube lets non-English speakers comment in English, I can do without dealing with stuff like this.
this is too amazing, the sad thing is that her parents probably forced her to practice non-stop, who's to say she's even enjoys the music she plays? it's awful but she's still amazing.
@violinoamore yes, but she only has one half of the talent.... all these classical pieces were created by Europeans.. so i wouldn't suggest a complete incarnation
She play's this caprices almost at the same level of the best recordings ever of paganini caprices,perfect.She deserves all respect for her fantastic achievements in the violin.
Yes, indeed, you are right. She's a real wonder. Al respect to her and teachers as well. I dunno though if she still needs teachers-she is simply better than most teachers. I would love to hear more of her. Beethoven, Brahms and Paganini concerts among others.
Great job..and actually I wish we offered children MORE opportunity to CONCENTRATE on music. I would have loved to have been able to study music all day for my "studies"..literally have cherished that opportunity but music was not considered important enough..let alone a stringed instrument. I would have LOVED to have been "exploited" in the manner celloprof describes as my parents punished me by taking my violin away..during money crunches our music programs are first to go
cont--the expense alone to study with a decent teacher, attain a GOOD instrument, attend competitions, summer camps almost automatically exludes a large number of our children from higher study in strings (or even other areas of private music study) I wish every child who had the desire could have the opportunity-that thought saddens me deeply.
I'm not the best with words but let me say something to all the haters. I'm a musician and I love what I do, but on stage I've been described as looking like I'm in pain. I just don't like looking like an idiot. Dancing, making stupid faces, smashing my instrument onto the stage and setting it on fire, grabbing myself like Michael Jackson. Thats just not me, it wouldn't and couldn't make me feel what I'm playing anymore if I already love it as much as I can.
I don't think she is shy, she is explosive in her playing, very much concentrating on the violin. Unfortunately some poeple are looking for entertainment, instead of great quality music. Miss Yeung is one of the greatest young talent. I wish her all the good luck in her carrier! If I look at her playing, her fingers, her beautiful violin sound, tears come in my eyes. Tears of happiness.
the fact that she has her eyes closed all the time doesn't mean anything to you who complain about her musicallity?try not looking at her while listening to her sound and you will find it right there..!!
I listened carefully - and you can *hear* the musicality. Just because she doesn't make silly faces, bend over, rock about, or nearly walk off the stage doesn't mean she isn't musical, it just means she stays in one spot.
not because of making faces while they're playing, because they aren't sensible at all and they don't play music. music for them is like a job...just working hard to do it perfect
what are you talking about dumbshit? paganini, the genius who composed these made it beutiful. its like a book, he makes it and she just recited it. but it did take skill, nonetheless
This violinist is amazing. I want to know more about her. Has she done any other recording? Is she playing as soloist? Where? All I can find in Google are references to the Paganini videos.
she starts the piece like she means business, but then in the major section, it sounds like it gets a little bit too "nice". although her performance is absolutely incredible either way, but i think it would be more effective if she carried out her badass approach for the whole piece.
that is true that everyone has the capacity. the human being is no different than a machine. some machines can sense things better than others, and thus express "emotion" better.
I wonder what make her violin is? It sounds beautiful (though ofc a lot of that is the playing involved!) My teacher is currently lending me the one she did all her diplomas on, because she wants me to be able to practice on a better quality violin - I wish I could keep it! I love its mellow, robust tone!
I've got no idea! She said it was Scottish, that's all I know. And that it was made in 1810 (amazing to think that Beethoven was still alive when it was made! And Haydn had died only a year before, Mozart just 19 years before). It's nothing super amazing I don't think, but it's good quality, perhaps semi-pro/pro at a push?
hmmm scottish . . . that's interesting lol. Well it wouldn't surprise me if it were on the low side of professional level or better just because usually that may start at a value of 8,000 and higher (depending on where u get it from) just cuz that's about a minimum start to violins used by music majors and therefore beginning professionals.
I see. Well it certainly sounds good to me, although as of yet I don't have the skills myself to bring out it's full qualities and colour! One day, one day... hehe. What type do you play, and how old is it etc.?
well, that's why you upgrade violins a lot of times. . . to allow you to improve. But it usually takes some getting used to at first. I find it so exciting upgrading . . . despite the fact that it also mean's parting from the violin that I've fallin in love with haha. But I always manage to get over it lol. I currently play a 1775 Tomasso Carcassi
Hehe, yupyup to all. Wow, it's fantastic how such a thing can last over 200 years! Then again, look at the Strads/del Gesus! Are Carcassis a good make? Ofc, its age will confer a lot of benefit to its sound too. (which reminds me, I meant ' its ' in my last message, not ' it's '. I'm picky about grammar, especially use of apostrophes!)
I think she's one of the most technically competent violin players on youtube. Her intonation is 99.99999% flawless. Her left hand seems like the perfect machine for violin. I'm guessing she's around 12 or 13 here. to find someone as "good" as this I usually have to search under the greatest names in violin. Even then, she still holds her own.
TOTAL respect and admiration to this Chinese girl...I play the violin too, but not on this level of virtuosity! I hope that one day, through hard work and dedication, I can play as well as her.
I totally agree with you :) and I believe that even if prodigies get a head start, so to speak, by the time we're mature adults we'll have had enough practice to play as good as they did at this sort of age, even if as adults they've still got that head start, all the insanely good ones like Vengerov!
im simply jealous...the rude comments dont change the fact that this girl can play...EXTREMELY well, so dont hate because some 10 yr old can play better than you..just work harder duhhh go get a clue, and stop acting like 3rd graders
is emoitions supposed to expressed in music or in the face?..I mean if we closed our eyes and just listened, do we feel the motions of it?....cause this is an ultimate question of mine..what's emotion, isn't it timimg signature of going with the voume up or down perfectly on each note as it feels...welll that could be practiced as well...so maybe we can endup with a wonderful music coming from uneemotional well practiced guy?
She never shows emotion. The only possibilities here are like joanna said, she decides to show us or not, or she's just full of technical knowledge and skill, which is kind of depressing.
Emotion is expressed in the hands and fingers ; it is expressed in the music. You do not have to pull silly faces like a rock guitarist every time you playa a difficult piece of music.
Although there's certainly nothing wrong with rock guitarists showing emotion, I think this is a beautiful performance. But since I already saw a couple of videos played by this girl, I expected nothing less!
Too many people think you have to show emotion in the music by pulling strange painful faces like a rock guitarist. It is a pity that some violinists have started doing this too Yes, you know who I mean ! Your hands are all that is needed to express emotion and this girl does that beautifully.
Yes im very tired of idiots saying people dont show emotion. I didnt realize music came from stupid faces. I want to hear music not watch someone's facial expressions and body movements while they are playing music. People that say this are probably crappy at playing but very good at making dumb faces.
well done ! why are people criticising here ? okay, she practises for many hours a day. Well, hello ! that is how you get good at something ; not by sitting around in front of the television watching Jerry Springer !
just to complement to your comment, where exactly is the emotion if not in executing a piece as perfectly as she did. In music emotion is not shown in the face, but in the instrument, and if you can't feel it in this vide then you oviously dont know a lot about music.
celloprof, i am ashamed that a fellow cellist can say stuff like that about a clearly good musician. its clear we all hate you, so why not save some dignity and shut the hell up?
white horse, why did you use this page, think abuot that parents this page visit to teach her childreens please stop this on page withPHENOMEALMUSIC, thanks
This video is a demonstration for the Bejing Conservatorium. She was 14 at the time, playing on a Nicolo Gagliano 1752 violin, 6 times China Violin Comeptition winner since age of 5, student of Prof. Lin who's students are First Prize winners of Paganini, Tchaikovsky etc. competitions. This girl is wonderful AND, she is normal, a regular kid. She is very popular in China. I think, because this is a educational video, she doesn't move as freely as she would usually.
mozart8181, HAHAHAHAHA, see proves my point!!! I've known tons of Violin players and Viola and Cello and Bass players. I KNOW EXACTLY HOW HARD IT IS TO BE THAT GOOD and I've known others as good as her or better and they had to plactice all day long to get that good so don't any of you people even go there.
Brilliant !

I find it so exciting upgrading . . . despite the fact that it also mean's parting from the violin that I've fallin in love with haha. But I always manage to get over it lol. I currently play a 1775 Tomasso Carcassi

Hehe, yupyup to all. Wow, it's fantastic how such a thing can last over 200 years! Then again, look at the Strads/del Gesus! Are Carcassis a good make? Ofc, its age will confer a lot of benefit to its sound too. (which reminds me, I meant ' its ' in my last message, not ' it's '. I'm picky about grammar, especially use of apostrophes!)

I think it's a Gagliano... worth hundreds of thousands. Although she'd sound good on a $50 skylark.

I think she's one of the most technically competent violin players on youtube. Her intonation is 99.99999% flawless. Her left hand seems like the perfect machine for violin. I'm guessing she's around 12 or 13 here. to find someone as "good" as this I usually have to search under the greatest names in violin. Even then, she still holds her own.

TOTAL respect and admiration to this Chinese girl...I play the violin too, but not on this level of virtuosity! I hope that one day, through hard work and dedication, I can play as well as her.

I totally agree with you :) and I believe that even if prodigies get a head start, so to speak, by the time we're mature adults we'll have had enough practice to play as good as they did at this sort of age, even if as adults they've still got that head start, all the insanely good ones like Vengerov!

is emoitions supposed to expressed in music or in the face?..I mean if we closed our eyes and just listened, do we feel the motions of it?....cause this is an ultimate question of mine..what's emotion, isn't it timimg signature of going with the voume up or down perfectly on each note as it feels...welll that could be practiced as well...so maybe we can endup with a wonderful music coming from uneemotional well practiced guy?

She never shows emotion. The only possibilities here are like joanna said, she decides to show us or not, or she's just full of technical knowledge and skill, which is kind of depressing.

Emotion is expressed in the hands and fingers ; it is expressed in the music. You do not have to pull silly faces like a rock guitarist every time you playa a difficult piece of music.

All the emotion are in her heart. She decides whether to show them to us or not.

Although there's certainly nothing wrong with rock guitarists showing emotion, I think this is a beautiful performance. But since I already saw a couple of videos played by this girl, I expected nothing less!

Too many people think you have to show emotion in the music by pulling strange painful faces like a rock guitarist. It is a pity that some violinists have started doing this too Yes, you know who I mean ! Your hands are all that is needed to express emotion and this girl does that beautifully.
brian777999 4 years ago 8
Yes im very tired of idiots saying people dont show emotion. I didnt realize music came from stupid faces. I want to hear music not watch someone's facial expressions and body movements while they are playing music. People that say this are probably crappy at playing but very good at making dumb faces.

well done ! why are people criticising here ? okay, she practises for many hours a day. Well, hello ! that is how you get good at something ; not by sitting around in front of the television watching Jerry Springer !
brian777999 4 years ago 2
Goodness
I don't kno what's with all the bashing of "robot" and emotionless
I think the most difficult part is "technique".
emotion can come once you master the right hand and all that,
personally, I think we use 90% of time to master technique, and 10% of time to put in emotion
especially at her age
she'll need to worry about her emotion when she becomes like Hilary Hann or Cho Liang Lin, but not as much now, IMHO

just to complement to your comment, where exactly is the emotion if not in executing a piece as perfectly as she did. In music emotion is not shown in the face, but in the instrument, and if you can't feel it in this vide then you oviously dont know a lot about music.

This video is a demonstration for the Bejing Conservatorium. She was 14 at the time, playing on a Nicolo Gagliano 1752 violin, 6 times China Violin Comeptition winner since age of 5, student of Prof. Lin who's students are First Prize winners of Paganini, Tchaikovsky etc. competitions. This girl is wonderful AND, she is normal, a regular kid. She is very popular in China. I think, because this is a educational video, she doesn't move as freely as she would usually.

mozart8181, HAHAHAHAHA, see proves my point!!! I've known tons of Violin players and Viola and Cello and Bass players. I KNOW EXACTLY HOW HARD IT IS TO BE THAT GOOD and I've known others as good as her or better and they had to plactice all day long to get that good so don't any of you people even go there.
