@tobbems-It's simply unfair to compare two different musicians playing two different musical genres. Besides, I would have thought that you would have compare Heifetz to Jimmy Page, who used a violin bow to play electric guitar in a band named Led Zeppelin.. Eddie Van Halen is a fine rock guitarist and philanthropist in the Los Angeles area. He donated 75 of his own guitars to public schools just today. Heifetz is arguably the finest violinist who ever lived. Perspective is "key," my friend...
i remember a picture of mr Heifetz with Erick Friedman, one link to the english page of wikipedia on Erick Friedman, there was a picture of them both, but Heifetz looked really really old in that picture, it's so offputting to know that after you dedicate your entire life to developing fine motor skills you actually get to witness them leaving you slowly towards the end of your life
@rdneckable so when you read the sheet music the notes on the paper are telling you the sound of the notes in the song? and though memory and lots of practice you know that if i place my finger on the second string around this area I will get the sound the sheet music is telling me to get? Wow, that sounds difficult. I think I'll stick to the piano. lol
you start when you r very young, a good teacher with a very good technique make you do that. When i started , how i started not even can remember.A good ear is very important to be able correct yourself, the rest is work , for the right hand and left hand. Is one of the most difficult things to do in this life. A good brain is necessary ,too and concentration. About talent let's not speak, this is the first in combination with love and passion
This MAN is a MAN that is unbelievably talented...NOT a Jew...NOT a German...NOT a Russian...I'm happy to have him perform for me...This statement from a MAN that not a Scotch-Irish
Not only is he a Jew, he is also a Russian. Russians are fairly well known for creating amazing violinists, from what I remember. I think he was born in the USSR, but I can't remember without actually looking it up. In any event, I don't care about his background all too much. The guy is absolutely brilliant -- he is probably the best violinist to have been recorded well.
If someone is interested in contemporary but classical authors I suggest you STEFANO SEMPRINI's SONATAS FOR VIOLIN AND PIANO - that are now edited by ArsMusica Edizioni (Rome). You can easily check them on the official website and on internet!
At the risk of doing what I hate and following a line of discussion irrelevant to the beauty and mastery I am witnessing in this video, I'm pretty sure that the states of being German and Jewish are not mutually exclusive. And on that line of questioning we are veering dangerously close to the Godwin's Law. I say: stop there and listen to something that is so beautiful it may be unique. Peace.
@batalion666 because jews are commited to educate and work hard on whatever they do. it's a major principle in the most jewish families. that's why they doing particular things so well.
I guess you meant that? Even considering other genius like Paganini and Vivaldi and such? Wow, Jascha Heifetz must be great. . .I'm going to listen to more of his playing. . .For this random violinist to pop up in the mozart playlist XD
He is beautiful, I enjoy Mozart and he played it quite well. I think he would be the perfect Role Model for the youth who want to learn this type of music.
@hedonism147 No, I do not know how to play it at all, I just think there re different people I am sure of, that could probably play better, but in a different style, there are also different opinions within each human mind on who may be the best, so that description can be best for majority.
@neosyelk hey no problemo.. there is a little option to video respond available if u can find some one who does nail it better you have the right to respond with a video like all of us do.. love , peace and more good music!
I am amazed at his speed which in no way hinders expression. He plays the rondo with both fire and a delicate manner. Of the 20th century violinist, everyone was compared to this man who raised the bar to a higher level. His example in performance continues to teach us all.
I never liked violin soloists . . . until I heard Heifetz.
On "Pearl" I have all his pre-WWII concerto recordings; check it out; you can hear his 1935 rendition of the Sibelius here on youtube along with him doing Beethoven with Toscanini and my own personal favorite, a 1939 recording of him doing the Brahms with Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
hey no fair - piano dude gets a chair and a page turner.....Mr. Heifetz, next time demand for someone to massage your feet while you play...its only fair.
@zigeunerviolin Thanks for the info! I was just taking a guess. I should have asked my sister who is a violin teacher and player for 45 years as she probably would have known.
I suppose when violinists have reached their absolute peak as both Haifetz and Kremer have, it boils down to personal preference of an individuals style.
@wowdanalise The best of the recording age, but there might have been better ones in the past. I love his music, don't get me wrong, I listen to his versions of most pierces rather than anything else. But I just think he would be the second best violinist that ever lived.
@DollarTrading Yes, I actually own a time machine and I went back in time to listen to Paganini and he was way better than Heifetz. Can you disprove this statement? No, you can't.
I started to swoon during the dolce part. He plays the whole piece gorgeously. Sure the notes are easy, but to put that much emotion and technique into a piece is hard. One day I hope to play like him.
@nearenough3 Well, Paul McCartney does and you raised a good point; I would think that the fret hand would naturally be more attuned to the right-handed rather than as the bowing or plucking hand.
I don't get how anybody could dislike an all-time master at this instrument. Oh well, fools are fools, and I guess we should just let them be fools. At least they're good at that.
what BS about 'no one being able to surpass him' kids now-a-days can play as well as him if not better .... no big deal just a matter of practice. Dont belive all those BS comments ppl make
Um yeh there might be 4 year old kids out there playing unbelievable stuff, but you have to live a life to know how music is supposed to feel and put emotion in it. Masters are masters because they have listened and studied for lifetimes. These young kids, they will no doubt grow up to be some of the most incredible players the world has seen, but to say that "kids now adays" play better shows an ear thats only listening to beats per minute, not the music itself. Maturity in playing is acquired
@amenhotep84 EXATCTLY its just like having a mustache!! YOU HAVE TO EARN IT!!! or it will just be silly peach fuzz! only an experienced man can wear a mustache proudly LOLOLOL
@amenhotep84 PREACH!! That was so very well put! There are quite a few young violinist that I really like but I will always LOVE Heifetz for that very reason!
@fugly75 Are you saying that many high school kids are smarter than Pythagoras or Euclid because they can do calculus? The common knowledge of a heliocentric planetary system does not make you smarter than Ptolemy. Likewise, there's a world of difference between being able to mimic a complex sequence of sounds and the genius it takes to be author of that composition.
It's like watching Jordan play basketball or hogan play golf. You folks have to see him play Pagnini Caprice #24. Was Pagnini designing musice to kill Violinist. p.s I know zero about the violin just know greatness when I see it....and Jascha is great!!!!!
I find it funny and extremely humbling to consider that I'll only ever be comparable to the guy sitting next to the piano player, just flipping the pages, privileged to be allowed to listen to Heifetz.
@brofilms101 Maybe, but when it comes to musicality, passion, soul and lyrical attitude, I like most of other violinist much more .. And no - it is not in the body movements or non-movements ...
People keep talking about who was the best, etc, etc. Milstein and Perlman are on recod as saying that Heifetz was the best. So if someone says Milstein or Perlman was the best, they (Milstein and Perlman) would disagree with him. I play the violin and listen to lots of violinists, and in my opinion no one can match Heifetz in terms of tone, intonation, technical skills, bowing, overall package.
Hey everyone. Please listen to my Improvisational take on the piece Fur Elise. It is called Fur Elisha. I assure with that you will just be mesmerized by the sound that enters your ears.. with love.. Tyler James Portnoy. ~ thank you. .~( you should join my channel, be friends.)
I have sat enthralled for the last 2 days listening this performance. We get to enjoy a lifetime of dedication and hard work that is behind this effort. That is not to slight the brilliance of Mozart either. As aspiring violinists we listen with awe at what is possible. It is both inspiring a bit discouraging, but I'll pickup my violin and press on tomorrow. I notice with interest the slim delicate fingers of Heifetz as opposed to the stubby fingers of Pearlman, both accomplished violinists.
@Boblett285 LOL...ahaha...don't worry about it...this is where you would be if you have godlike skill and work really hard at it, i started violin like... 4 and a half years ago, it's awesome, and is more beautiful than piano imo

@brofilms101 Maybe, but when it comes to musicality, passion, soul and lyrical attitude, I like most of other violinist much more .. And no - it is not in the body movements or non-movements ...

People keep talking about who was the best, etc, etc. Milstein and Perlman are on recod as saying that Heifetz was the best. So if someone says Milstein or Perlman was the best, they (Milstein and Perlman) would disagree with him. I play the violin and listen to lots of violinists, and in my opinion no one can match Heifetz in terms of tone, intonation, technical skills, bowing, overall package.

I picked up some RCA Living Stereo SACDs of him playing Brahms, Tchaikovsky, and other concertos and it is pretty amazing for 55-year-old recordings.

I have sat enthralled for the last 2 days listening this performance. We get to enjoy a lifetime of dedication and hard work that is behind this effort. That is not to slight the brilliance of Mozart either. As aspiring violinists we listen with awe at what is possible. It is both inspiring a bit discouraging, but I'll pickup my violin and press on tomorrow. I notice with interest the slim delicate fingers of Heifetz as opposed to the stubby fingers of Pearlman, both accomplished violinists.

@Boblett285 Don't worry! Keep practicing and you can learn this piece too! Look up Niccolo Paganini that scares everyone.
