Vengerov - Lanaudiere Classical Music Festival Canada

[Violin1836]

Who is the pianist? He is amazing!

[abelardoster]

A magnificent virtuoso, no doubt. However, his clownish way of playing the violin detracts somewhat from an otherwise fine performance.

[dreadynatty15]

HOW CAN YOU KNOW THAT BY MEMORY MAN !!!!!!!!

[Editors4Writers]

Bravo!!

[trinymaxmariachi]

jajaja k barbaro, no cabe duda de pork vengerov es el mejor violinista de la actualidad

[AGFreitas11]

crazy's

[mateusbelloni]

aar by Heifetz, genius.

[melodeus]

that's unbelievably excellently played and funny. Is it on one of Vengerov's DVD?

[pinterpijitplus]

hahaha love that tom n jerry facial expresion

[Dbrazz88]

Hardest working man in show business.

[darrencjc]

That pianist looks like Elton John

[banlun]

Passionnant, dramatique, ludique, en d'autres mots, envoûtant. Mettons de côté le caractère atypique du violoniste et admettons que Vengerov est un interprète d'exception.

[tinar4violin]

bravo!!

[julian54578]

wow wow wow!!!

[IlEtaitUneForet]

lol ok its hilarous

[IlEtaitUneForet]

lol when he shakes his head pplk are laughing but its not even supposed to be funny lollll but it is anyway lol

[hayyu2008]

I think he's a violin King! Really spectacular and faultless.... I just find his facial expressions annoying

[ninjalikesweapons]

the sharp scale at the end played by maxim was Phenomenal!

[Horatiojk]

Vengerov is:

DA SHIT!

[annpham]

he really PLAYS music. He has so much fun with it.

[bansuri69]

hahaha amazing....

[bcacessnapiper]

It's hysterical. I've viewed this clip about 10 times just because his head movements were so funny. Amazing. Don't forget Maxim is one of the best interpretors!

[assa123assa123]

why don't you get it that this particular show is FUN. they're obviously not serious and being ridiculous on purpose. and that's a good sense of humor. for bad see gilles apap.

most of people's criticism on maxim are about his 'facial expressions' - yeah, you either hate it or love it. call it 'vulgar' or 'feeling the music throughout'. he's a showman of course, but the top one in terms of musical talent as well.

[baszzzka]

I just say: WOW!

[cl427x]

wow! he's intense on those downbows yet very sonorous on the elongated passages. yes, he moves a lot, but no one should deny the sound he produces is pretty awesome!

[maxhansendk]

Ohhhh...extremely weak playing. My old grandmother at 89 can do this better.

[sompotrol]

fantastic

[skrzypce666]

[whoryhobopowers]

XD

[morales1ne]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!! Maxim Vengerov ROCKS the Violin!!!

[yk325]

The pianist is also spectacular! He plays like he's playing rock music, shaking that mop of a head. It takes serious skill to play that version of the Saber Dance!

[doctormagix]

Vengerov is a legend.

[88keysinarow]

col clamp out loud

bravo

[franzwithfleas]

that was fucking brilliant.....this is the way the violin is supposed to be played. Just watched the painful phony Gil Shaham last night and was CRAVING Mr.Vengerov...

Thank you!

[Violinfanatic]

I love Gil Shaham and Maxim Vengerov. Two totally different violinists with two totally different styles of playing.

[donesixfour]

two different interests completely two different violinists and two different styles. that is a complete opinion, and mine is that all of that body motion is cool but not necessary and believe me im a violinist, Gil Shaham is a great violinist without the not necessary head jerks he does just fine.

[iGotSpaceLikeNASA]

yeah but some people arent simply capable of playing that well, and also be entertaining on a physical level. Just think how hard the music is and hes still able to do all that movement which often brings so much more to a performance

[MerlinTheDraconic]

I love how Vengerov clowns around so much while he's playing, yet everything is still perfect.

[jdacateriano]

amazing...espectacular... 5 *

[stradivari08]

Amazing double stops in tenth!!

[DevilViolinist]

Wow, Vengerov is soooooo awesome when he plays! I think that this is his best show-piece. More vids like this please!!!!!! :)

Vengerov rocks!!!
