The Chase - Paganini/Liszt

[RICFLIEB]

I'm playing accordeon and keyboards since 50 years as an amateur and I'm deeply impressed of your hi profession. I'll never be able to do so. Please show us more of your extraordinary talent.

[acedaface954]

hmmm? didn't they play this score in pirates of the caribbean ???

[MrCactusHanf]

do you need a free bass for this??

i wanna play this too, its fantastic

[Palivizumab]

Mesmerizing. 

[MissilesAgainstBats]

You're a hell of an accordion player. Very nice!

I didn't notice any big mistakes anywhere. Maybe one or two minor slips, but still extremely well performed.

[steamboat75043]

impressive

[Firrodrigolosofia]

That's how e say in portuguese

Maravilhos, incrível, sensacional. Você toca extremamente bem!

Awesome!

[garontis]

Beautiful playing - It's not easy to make a classical piece sound believable on the acc., but you do it!

[marknew3]

Not as impressive as his Tocata and Fuge,but very good,.

[89Dave89]

Can you send me the sheet of this piece too?? :D I'm sorry, for always bothering you, but i can't get it here in my country :)

(also if you have some other sheets, i would thank you, if you could send them too)(majbe in a .rar, or .zip file) Thanks! :)

[fabiopalma]

1:44

That's the mistak, isn't it?

But still it was very well covered...seemed to be a "note of passage" xD it sounded cool =)

Congrats ;)

[honggangmark]

You are the best accordionist in the world! I've been playing the accordion since 35 years ago. I'd like to know what brand and model of the accordion you are using in this video so I can consider buying one, too. Thank you for your reply.

Yours,

Mark

[Rokovak]

I wondered that too, and I looked it up. It's made by Titano, but as for the model I'm not sure of, but I think it's one of the Emperor Super Cassotto models.

[rjritzenthaler]

Very good!

[robert3302]

I didn't notice any mistake. You covered it well. I have enjoyed all your videos. Can you tell us anything about your instrument? The make, age, etc. Thank you.

[adamslacks]

Bravo! A master at work.

[Aelkamal]

"paganini non-ripete!"

[f0xiek]

Another 5* preformance!

[Fixnitup]

Funny thing about detractors ....... They often more then not can do better !!! BRAVO !!!! For 45 years I've played the accordion ..... and yes .... I admire and salute those who are better !!!! PLAY ON !!!!

[perlingeiro]

Great!!

You're pretty skilled!!

[Kregzdute7]

I like this :)

[FranzofL]

Made me laugh... I'd never imagined it on an accordion... =]

[leandrojf1982]

congratulations from brazil.

bela performance;

[jarda713]

CAn somebody tell me. what is the name of this opus? THX

[genmaximus110]

Paganini's Caprice no. 24 for solo violin.

[dqdikidkey]

its originally Caprice no. 9 in E Major =]

[genmaximus110]

no. 9

Why did I say 24? Must've been dreaming...

[biodude94]

Incredible! Enjoyed all 4 of your videos.

[gagiandjeo]

5 *****

[xbox2xbox]

great performance!

[efneho]

I believe the big mistake he refers to is at 1:45. And yes of course, one misplaced note is a big mistake for a musician of his calibre.

[abdavey]

End of its life? Nothing a good tuning couldn't fix.

[Tacheonblack]

The point is that it's pretty worn-out as a whole, not just out-of-tune.

[oakpianist]

Nonsense!

[terrygao]

he probably meant the little glitch happened at 1:05. if that's a "big mistake" to you, my play is full of big mistakes :-) I guess your standard is much, much higher. Anyways, GREAT work and congratulations.

[winston5610]

What little glitch at 1:05? I'm rusty as a musician and have lost some of my hearing due to a noisy workplace, but it sounded perfect to me!

As for "masterofmyfate31"'s remark, what I do know of musicianship is GO WITH WHAT WORKS FOR YOU! I would refer you to Harpo Marx's autobiography. When he finally got around to taking lessons, he found that the teachers were studying his technique, and he was paying them for the privelege!

[papimamie41]

combien de milliers d'heures de travail quel

memoire des notes mains droite-gauche prodigieux

ce musicien BRAVO.....POUR TOUTES SES VIDEOS

[ApocalypticEcstasy]

I couldn't hear any big mistake. Maybe some small ones, but I'm not sure. On the other hand, this is the first time I heard the song.

[bjalouqa]

professional!! cheers from jordan !!!

[Ahvye]

How many years did you study/take lessons to get to this level of playing?

[Fastopen]

Very very good, keep on. Very interesting!.

[Georgexu149]

I'm being pretty pedantic here, but I'm sure 'la chasse' translates to 'the hunt'.

I really like this piece.

[inkL0sed]

Yes, "la chasse" does mean "the hunt."

[michelesestu]

fear of mistakes is a beginner's worry. keep on ... you aren't a beginner! 5 stars

[HZIMFCE]

great! that piece is addorable. :)

[mxdmjj]

nice work!

but you made some little mistakes on your play!keep practising!

[FrCusus]

I wish I could play accordian like you.

[ganryu123]

just unbelievable

[smalin]

Lovely ... cute piece and charming rendition.

[nyck26]

More please!

[creamofcardstv]

Your video clip is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on being Baching Mad on Classical Music Composer trading cards (issued in 1912): Paganini, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert and many more included.

[tekhiun]

isnt this caprice number 9 ??

[AccCam]

The CD i have of it by pianist Grigory Ginsburg, calls it [La Chasse ("Paganini" Etude #5)]. By Liszt

[tekhiun]

Oh i c liszt made the adaptation to piano if im not mistake , try to listen to the violin version is very nice too, and great plaing btw i love the themes in this piece ^^

[Omega1987]

It is caprice no. 9, but Paganini used the same theme for an etude aswell.

[BoeingB17FF]

@tekhiun Well, yes. To Both. It's Paganini's 9th Caprice for Solo violin (probably know that by now) and Liszt modeled his 5th etude off of it.

[supermanifold]

mistake ? what mistake ? who cares, this is fantastic

[Ahvye]

That was simply beautiful. :-) I can only dream of playing this type of music on the accordion. Please don't hesitate to upload more videos.

[fisarmonicista]

Could you please send me the score?

[bigposaune]

Fantastic! Bravo, bravo, bravo!

[EtrofOnaip]

What's the name of the artist ??

[sadux]

You are good!

I think that tempo must be slower.. :)

[gregoryhines5a]

cool

[alexacco]

good job )

[dostc]

I love Paganini, I play this piece on piano, and I also play accordion. I love your transcription. Congratulations. I would love to listen to you live.
