Saint-Saens violin concerto - 3rd movement

[firat8596]

really good very demanding concerto

[MT22202]

She draws bow with such a force and uses 100% capacity. sound generating is unparallel. look at how she uses her bow.!

[makuletboy]

0:38 that G is orgasmic. damn she can play

[BlckComb]

Best ending to anything. Ever.

Fine tuners are meant for use with metal strings, as they change pitch very quickly on being tuned: we are talking nanometers not mm. Non metal, including synthetic, strings (Vengerov & Josh Bell et al use them) can be tuned manageably by pegs. If you need 4 FTs, better have a tailpiece where FTs are inbuilt, as even the minicule weigth and measure differences (especially the shortening of all 4 strings with accessory FTs) can have massive undesirable acoutical and response-to-player effects.

[violinpluspiano]

To: pjz2007: Regarding "using 4 fine tuners", maybe this says more about her violin than it does about her ability to tune. Sometimes very old (& I mean 'difficult') instruments just are too tricky to 'get it right' with only the pegs; either that or "she" is sooo talented that those super-fine nuances in tone "do" make a difference [at least for her] while for the rest of us 'mere mortals' we're simply satisfied with G, D, A & E.

[drbalsconephd]

I see "violinpluspiano" is at it again. Leaving negative comments instead of enjoying the beautiful music and amazing talent this lady is sharing with those of us who can truly appreciate it. Shame on you sir. Your ignorance is showing yet again.

[JiangxenPeter]

The answer is simple - her strings have metal cores. This obligates the use of FTs. As a pianist you know that our G,D & E are diffferent to yours (albeit by centiHz). This is why Joachim always "argued" with Brahms that the piano is "out of tune". Piano notes are 12 equal semitones apart. With strings there is an infinite number of notes per octave (hence no frets), so we don't need tricks of tuning to achieve whatever interspatial notes we want, & all these are rooted by our firm G,D,A,E.

[pjz2007]

Wow. she uses all fine tuners.

[symphonyViki]

wow very well played

[classicalmusiccity]

Nice to see this played with elegance and restraint.

[baerfas]

i just don't like her bow arm and hold but she's obviously really good!

[eutuve]

have you noticed t

her horrible left foot ?

You are definitely not Allegro but moderatamente stupido

[GeorgeMaxwellDuPre]

Why is this in black and white? In 1985 we had colour televisions.

[TorinJB1]

haha i know i was like wtf?! :/

[OriginalMoonbeam]

Impressive job on this beautiful concerto!

[theViolinDreamer]

You just have got to love this concerto!

[kellbellwon]

i just learned the first movement to this concerto. i love it. the whole thing. i cant wait to learn the rest.

marcovici isn't my favorite performer, but certain pieces, i think, suit her very well, and this is one of them. (symphonie espagnole is another.)

great performance.

[evil2salad]

Ja, ja das ist gut ja ja

[lovesGenet]

Wow . Marcovici was grt.Commited and grt sound .Wonderful hi e string sound. I hope thereis some Erica Morini here .

[samanthavillalobos]

That's really good. I enjoyed it.

[melomansarasatiste]

the most wonderful performance of this piece I love her so much

[tennisballer17]

dammm thats pretty amazing

[battleblades]

Silvia is a great violinist. I have never heard a more beautiful, singing quality of tone out of a violin. One thing I like is that in the Allegro, she doesn't push the tempo, like Perlman in his recording. This was a very musical and well done performance. It also helps that she's an attractive woman!

I would say the one complaint I have is the rhythm of her first solo violin statement.

[dragonslaya123]

I have seen many kids play this, and I'm very sure that they have seen this, because this version is very similar. Either that, or my violin teacher watched and tought them this.

[gotrapid74]

I'm terribly sorry- anyone who has ever said that Saint-Saens is not a genius has never heard this concerto for violin. It is incredibly fiery and commands mastery from the performer. The adagio melody is as well divine....

[GeorgeMaj15]

@gotrapid74 Or the first cello concerto. Saint-Saens has his faults, but he surely is a genius.

[happpiday]

what happened at 3:20???

[classicalpiano92]

=( I think they cut the video so it would fit youtube's video limit thing.

[ccpoe]

One of the best violin performer I have seen. Confident and accurate.

[mdclxvis]

i believe it's termed "Rubato" and seriously... "too much rubato" ??? i personally think she should use more through the first bar. spend more time on the long notes and make the semis faster. It's like a cadenza the beginning, the soloist can do whatever they want.

remember guys, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.there is waaayy too much anger on youtube about all the brilliant soloists.theyre all much better than you so i wouldnt go bagging them out

[Tysontp]

What is the roboto ? Sivia is so beautiful. I like to see her fingers movement.

[john16889]

SHE IS DIVINE.

[iSkylla]

It's quite however she uses too much roboto especially in the beginning. She lost the rhythmic framework of the molto moderato e maestoso.

[dasi27]

this is the best version of all saint saens!

[zebatida]

Silvia tu es magnifique!

[habaabchi74]

Wonderful...this concerto should indeed be played like this....full of spunk, bold and exciting

[narutoramen1]

yay I just finished studying/ playing this song XD

IT'S AWSOME! A wonderful and exciting piece to play...not to mention hard. T^T

[devraipoison]

Superb!Dar, din pacate nu am gasit nici un clip impreuna si cu Aimo Pagin!!Interpretare 100% reusita, ca intotdeauna! Iar pisicile tale imi plac la nebunie!!Mai ales cea neagra!

[ellegin88]

THAT is how saint saens should be played

[puiuculi]

Bravo Silvia! Suntem maindri de tine....
