[harunalnasif]

Great maestros! Salute to you.

[oli6880]

some of the most out of tune violin playing here courtesy of sir Menuhin...

[3805abc]

素晴らしいですね、これ以上の言葉が見つかりません。

[tsucu]

Gentleman you passed the test!

And we should pass this on to our kids to watch and cherish for the rest of their lives!

Two great maestros!

WE LOVE YOU!

[galvanometr]

I am suprised by Yehudi's playing in first third of song, especially right hand his bow is even bouncing on strings. Stephane is as always great.

[nopalak1]

Love them.. what a genius gentlemen !! Deeply Thanks

[Graemeandarchie]

Parky's final comment about it being great for music must sum it up. The greatest classic violinest ever, and the greatest jazz violinest ever making the sweetest music. That, actually, is what great music is about - enjoyment, class, quality. Never mind the genre, if it is the best, then it is the best. This is the best.

[niallgkiernan]

In response to Sniped2 - Someone with no musical understanding or appreciation.

[daisies53]

My late father used to play with both of these talented and fantastic to my mind, artists

[MrMusikkenner]

Einfach Göttlich diese zwei. Eine Sternstunde der Musik-in a small Matter-anyway.

[andrezemuner]

B R A V O !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheBWAAA59]

J'adore le sourire de Grappelli à 1 min 30.

[paulostroff99]

Spectacular! TY for posting and Candy for sharing.

[MarcAmAlb]

Menuhin humility shows his true greatness.

[supersesqui]

@MarcAmAlb

Sir, you are correct and very insightful.

[cestmamusique]

So wonderful ... exotic ... the complete recording without interruptions, please ...

[mikitank654321]

Два гения скрипки!!! БРАВИССИМО!

[ranger2464]

Saw them play together at 100 Club in London ! Never will I have a more sensory night !! Mik.

[piraan2]

Do I have to say more.

[johnnyguitar1979]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[IslandJazzGirl]

amazing... just wonderful!!!

[pichulowsky]

WOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW::::: MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE¡¡¡¡¡

[ragenlove93]

@pichulowsky Hahaha xd so exaggerate xD

[annitaGuitar]

Menuhin is the perfection, but Grappelli touches my heart

[eddie123e]

This kind of experience transports you to a higher dimension of life. This is a very exceptional piece of music played by two very exceptional artists. This piece and their interpretation will live for ever.

Words are simply not adequate to describe the feelings this kind of performance creates.

Thank you fostex/D160

The "Idiots" who did NOT like this jewel, are,obviously, aliens from the planet Klingon..(

[teoxin]

What a remarkable quote did say Menyhin: "Every note was an event..." God!!I like this video so much that I 've learned the conversations by heart!!!

[eddie123e]

@teoxin Me too!

[hehavenoname]

Agree mightily. Oil and water. That's the nature of good musicians: Navigating by their own view of the stars. 40 years ago I was trying to tell a friend to play for the audience (or at least my wild ears) , not his limited school-boy self. A month ago I was trying to tell a folk musician in his 70's to enjoy jazz and marvel at, it not try to join in as it would be like harnessing horses to a steam engine. The YM/SG partnership showed that GREAT musicians can bridge the divisions.

[ZlayoSelce]

@teoxin thats about violine, i was playing a guitar since i was 7 and now at age of 36 trying to learn a violin and it's completely different - you have to feel every note

[guerracha]

Nowadays, people don´t make music. They produce noise.

[oronzofreddy]

@guerracha It can feel like they don't make it like they used to, but I can assure you it's not true, you just have to dig a bit deeper than you're radio and other commercial avenues.

[qwertypluss]

@guerracha dirty egvil snob

[treblinska]

ould anyone dislike this....take a jump :-))

[MrRahatma]

my godness i am excited andi feel out if tis world with this fantastic violinist . its very pleasant when i listen to this fantastic music. the joyness and the armony all combined in my head makes me feel in the heaven. i really apreciate this.

[MrSLAIEH]

merveilleux duo !!!!

[SuperSiegfried1]

Great



[cookiegalleta]

Amazing!!!Marvellous!!!Does anybody know where I can find the recorded version?¿I would like to listen the entire concert of these masters!!!Which album??

Thanx too much "fostexD160" to share this fantastic video with all of us!!!

[TurboTsunami19]

I love Yehudi! Great performance!

[macpixley]

Remember that Grappelli wrote all notes down for Menuhin, M could not improvise.

[jheifetz]

you see menuhins bow hand flattering. Its because he hat problems when he was old. Grappelli didnt have such problems. So his tone is stable in compare to menuhin.

[michaelsmorrison]

There is an ugliness in beauty and a beauty in ugliness... M.S. Morrison

[Phyoomz]

Grappelli's violin always sounds so soft and gentle. Not easy to do with a naturally loud and squeaky instrument.

[dell177]

What a fantastic performance, thanks for posting it.

[ZlayoSelce]

Not so sad Fostex, if BBC can't give us to us, we got audio on pirate bay for free

[karinablacktie]

Listening to this is wonderful, but watching it adds a whole new dimension, seeing their complete joy of the music and each other. Splendid.

[pacrijna]

Why is this in the Youtube glenn gould mix O.o?



[mobilwizard]

Jew is good, but he is not Grapelli.

[mobilwizard]

Who is maestro? Grappelli! Grappelli!! Grappelli!!!!!!!!!!

[Lux019]

The golden age of Menuhin was his teenage years.

Listen to his Bach, Elgar, Bruch, Mendelssohn and Dvorak recordings.

[naseilis]

breathtaking

[navigator1944]

Yehudi, the technician, blown off the stage by an artist.

[Benj888]

Loves them both.

[ZlayoSelce]

best part of interwiev was when he told he can't manage to improvise with grappelli....nwm i apriciate both

[ZlayoSelce]

can you send me some link for Grappelli pianos recordings plis jazz

[BE3EL]

"Had the feeling that every note was an event ..."

Respect .

[3muimui]

1:29-2:06

Thank you for posting!

[OCUBOX]

great upload, sad that its not in FULL though

[SteauaBucuresti]

Enescu gave Menuhin an Romanian soul.

[markh1125]

One of my favorite TV moments, and the beginning of a magnificent friendship

[Gorodeckii1]

Bravissimo!!!!!!!!!!!

[guitarsquiddy]

I'm speechless (luckily I can still type;)

Two great masters, who's individual sounds mixed to an incredibly smooth stirring landscape of music, both showing great respect for each other, while feeling no need to show off. Even though it's long gone, the fact that there has ever been such a moment fills me with joy and hope for the future of music.

Thanks a million, hopefully the guys at BBC will find a way to publish the full version. It would make my year. Thanks for posting.

[michaelnebehay]

@guitarsquiddy very pleased with your comment! I rarely have experienced more pleasure in listening to music.

[starryeyedsilence]

just wondering...which one's which? can anyone clarify?

[ifabbott]

Menuhin is on the left.

[piraan2]

What can I say. Two of the greatest playing together.

[Factnotfictionpeople]

Speechless...........

[raminnnnn1]

esi neyse

[estelaullon]

adorooooooooooooooooooooo... esto quedara en el archivo akasico x siempreeee

[Ferenz111]

INCREDIBLE... So touching. Music from the heart !

[flaviusfurtuna]

15 people are jealous.

[vermineater]

you guys can hear the arpeggios from Mendelssohn's violin concert played by Menuhin?? great!!!

[OmaKahn]

Awesome. Awesome to the max.

[lovellespice]

I'm so jealous of all the talent =)

[TheMark51mark]

marvellous

[LEONCODAJJ]

Este tango fue compuesto en 1924 por el formidable músico uruguayo Gerardo Hernán Matos Rodríguez ,”Becho”(1897-1948), que fue, nada menos, también el autor de La Cumparsita.

[leoncoda]

Este tango," CELOS" , fue compuesto por Gerardo Hernán Matos Rodríguez en 1924.

[12Luzie]

How marvelous to see these two great men ..... MANY THANKS, dear fostexD160!

[Ceciontwoclefs]

Haven't seen anything more touching than this...

[ninjabakerDJsniper]

grappelli sounds amazing but i think menuhin should stop trying to steal the show. he plays waaaay too loud almost all the time.

[explorer203]

It is very,very annoyning to have a beautiful piece like this interrupted by a conversation. Can the talk be placed at the end of the piece?

[duncanblythe]

Parkinson is a wanker

[duncanblythe]

Parkinson is a willy

[noachcorvers]

its good fery good

[TheSniped21]

What idiots disliked this?

[CelticProgeny]

@TheSniped21 - Grow up lad. Just because someone doesn't like what you like doesn't make them an idiot. If we all liked the same things it would be a boring world. This music is not to everyones liking. Having said that I'm not sure what they were expecting when they selected this video :)

[alinSC2]

@TheSniped21 do you know the show an idiot around the world? That kind of people do :)))

[MsMarc1234]

@alinSC2 An idiot abroad

[lanarv]

Thank you very much for posting this video!

It is a great pleasure to see them both..together ! ..great match indeed :-)

and for us it is also a HAPPY INJECTION !..and a HAPPY EVENT !

[BeholdLife]

WONDERFUL !!!

[vrd1590]

my fave =]

[Mike2008and2008]

I believe it is called ....JAMMING!

[bruceleeC64]

It brilliantly shows the two different approaches between jazz and classical but where genius and perfect natural expression meets in the middle

[mobilwizard]

Grapepelli is maestro, Jew is good, but not so good like Maestro Grappelli!!

[lanarv]

@mobilwizard

Sorry..GRAPEPELLI..or GRAPPELLI ...WHO?

And the JEW..is simply MINUHIN ..YEHUDI !!! :-)))

[pilipinas028]

greatest violin player's

[japanesesen]

BRILLIANT!!!

[bruceleeC64]

@kfbraswell Jealousy is Jalousie in French therein the answer lies

[mobilwizard]

Menuhin is good - the best, but Grappelli is Maestro!! Fantastic!! Grappelli is the ONE. Grappelli's violin is more powerfull.

[PhilVassallo]

Stéphane Grappelli, at the Bottom Line and the Bitter End in Greenwich Village during the early 1970s--you defined my youth. Thanks for your dazzling brilliance, youthful enthusiasm, and enduring musicianship.

[poodernet]

Called Google's 'Help Center' and was told 'We don't care if it works or not, try the help page'. This surprised the heck out of me. When the 20-somethings finish their coffee maybe they'll look at it. Or maybe I'll call Vint Cerf at home :-) Still love it. I make plenty of mistakes myself.

[poodernet]

Sorry, but YouTube seems to have lost the remove feature.

[poodernet]

I cried for days when Stephan died. First time heard him was with Menuhin playing 'Jealousy' (sorry, I'm an Ameircan) on my way to Berklee College of Music in 1975. I had the honor of hearing Maestro Grappellii play six times at Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis. I'm overjoyed that he lives on on YouTube. -samg

[FleetAdmiralStrider]

What a brilliant comination! The best Jazz violinist and Imrovisationist and the best classical violinist!

[rosariorajkumar]

Fantastic !

Rosario Rajkumar

[mobilwizard]

Maestro  Grappleli blow you out, do nto shit!!

[davei36]

As a teenager, I watched one late Saturday evening the original show of this and was amazed at how 2 giants in their respective, yet so opposite musical realms could create such wonderful harmony.

Thank you whoever posted this

[stzing6]

Really great! Two genius of violin,

Thank you .

STZ

[mobilwizard]

Fanfardon - you are big f. shit!!!!!

[mobilwizard]

I prefer Grapelli. Menuhin is best, but Grapelli is storm, beter than best. It is hard to find somebody even close to those two imortal maestros, two genius of violin.

[Fanfardon]

Menuhin was a hassidic snotpicker. Grapelli was an ignorant pimp. Fik both of 'em.

[eddie123e]

Trukly superb and how very noble of Yehudi to concede that to have improvised his contribution was beyond him. Viva Grappelli!

[seforamyers]

Fantastic! Thank you very much.

[hvaskerderfordig]

This a Danish peace!! Jakob Gade - Tango Jalosi . Fun to hear it in this version

[ishdelville]

beautiful post, thanks a lot

[Aneurysm06]

awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Amazuful]

Fantastic!!!

[Wilde4Ever]

I think that is a better version than the one that they recorded

[TheGaetano62]

dont wont tolk abaut swing, grappelli sound production is better than menhuin

[2short2q]

Words like "great" are tossed around so casually.

Good to touch base and understand what that should mean.

[AureusVenerabilis]

Brilliant... How old was he when he died? (I read somewhere that he died in 1999)

[halipoetu]

83years old

[drveejay]

awesome!!!

[ednuttah]

So sorry Mr Parkinson I had no idea you had the musical knowledge to pass such a comment! Perhaps you would like to inform Paul Merton how to improvise in comedy!

[jazzmunky]

Both of them were such wonderful people in different ways.

Grappelli was so humble, there's a great documentary about him that shows him in his little flat where he used to play the piano (he was a good pianist too).

Menuhin was acutely intelligent and naturally elegant, and has helped many a budding violinist.

They were both gentlemen of the highest order!

[QuttaKerres]

Hi, can you give the title of this doc pls:)

[jazzmunky]

Stephane Grappelli: A Life in the Jazz Century (2003)

Very good, DVD includes old films of Grappelli and a This is you Life about him form the 70s. Doc was the labour of love by directors who self-funded th project.

[QuttaKerres]

Thank you, I will try to get it if possible

I like self-funded projects - as usually they are full of real love:)

[FATIME132]

je ne sais que dire de mon émotion sauf que j'en ai la chair de poule............. merveilleux ...fantastique .... émotionnellement chavirant !!!!!!

[ZeroX810]

both of you pass the audition!! LOL

[rmgj]

Good Heavens, I got goose bumps three times during my very first hearing of this music, and I do not get those too often these days, Lord, Lord, marvelous magic moments, an insight into greatness it is, no less. Of course thanks to the incredibly kind soul who posted this, truly, we owe you a year of magic, all the good to you, cheers and good luck.

[anocheceres]

When i see old great people giving us such as great art, i always feel sorry for my dad, he's only 58 and he feels old and useless...such a shame...

[TheDirteeSanchez]

The debate was and has always been, which violinist is better. Grappelli is clearly the greatest jazz violinist ever, Menuhin falls under the same clasical category. Classical people hate to admit, Grappelli (yes a jazz violinist) is the greatest violinist ever. Clasical people, argue grappelli has no structure, but Menuhin has too much sturcture, and this vid proved that. Like someone already said Grappelli is a mistro, Menuhin is just good.

[mobilwizard]

Grappelli is maestro!! Menuhin is, let say good!!

[Wilde4Ever]

Menuhin played fantastic in that recording as he always has. I love the way you can feel the different styles of the two. When Grapelli launched into that improv, Menuhin put his violin down and gave him such a look like 'what are you doing son'!

[dfarmbrough]

Exccellent! And nice to hear them doing a Billy Fury song too!

[adamgadk]

It is Jacob Gade - Tango Jealousy, that they are playing.

[dfarmbrough]

Yes, it's in the title that they are playing "Jealousy". Did you know it was a Billy Fury song though? My comment was meant to be slightly ironic because I was aware that others had recorded it before Billy, most notably Frankie Laine. But it was a bigger hit for Fury, who reached number 2 in the UK chart with his version.

[algoriddm]

who is zee maestro?!

[SylverSnape]

Master Menuhin may have played "Jealousy", nevertheless all he showed was admiration. It takes a great man to be able to see his limits and admire the talent he notices in others.

As for Mr. Grappelli, I have yet to see such serene a man while playing. Peaceful & astonishing. Simply outstanding!

[churrs]

this is so blimmin fantastic.. what a shame we can't share the whole thing!

[pearltorto]

omg i love grapelli i've just listened to his 'jamming' with django rheindhardt

[lizzie1453]

Just brilliant.

[urbaninjas]

my high school orchestra conductor was a personal friend of stephane's

[patriciadcattaneo]

Yehudi Menuhin (músico, Grã-Bretanha): "Se eu tivesse de resumir o

século xx, diria que despertou as maiores esperanças já concebidas pela

humanidade e destruiu todas as ilusões e ideais".

[GJR1975]

If Aly Bain had been there it would have been even better!!!!!!!!!

[moncito2000]

Excelent¡¡¡

[SpazzzDog]

What's the point of them filming this if they can't release it? Stupid fucking copy right bureaucracy.

[harshmistress]

Because they want to be exclusive? Or because they have bad market advisors.

[betumixergulp]

beautifullllllll

[mytubeisland]

We can all learn how to read and play music. Here is proof that it is all in the touch, interpritation and understanding. Grappelli was nothing short of a genius. Gives me pleasure every time!!!!!

[denniscontreras]

this is so beautiful,awesome

[amiltolo]

2 grandes Maestros..¡muy bueno!

[patcalisura]

If jazz is indeed considered and now accepted as an art form.... then Mr. Grapelli is with equal position as Mr. Menuhin....otherwise...classic­al Artist still has the authority!!!

[Morahman7vnNo2]

Hear that, he bridged it, so don't tear it down.

[fruglescot]

Anything but 'DUELING VIOLINS"

[pichilafquenmapu]

wonderful stuff

[ATYUOT]

nice...

[meineke11]

Manche Kommentare hier sind schon etwas traurig zu lesen... Hier haben zwei Musikerlegenden sich einfach einer Sache hingegeben, die für Menuhin Neuland war--ist das nicht wunderbar...?

[DeadReagans]

i totally agree that is playing is more expressive when he was older. not militant at all, more romantic

[Gilaziel]

Just for the record, I was joking. Vanessa Mae is an average professional at best- Grappeli and Menuhin were world-class virtuosos.

[paradisu2a]

tres beau..

[Factnotfictionpeople]

OPINION! :-)

[26gosia]

amazing:)

[drobny2008]

Super Super Super !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sara0alya]

Ahi tienen a un judio universal GENIAL, y después quieren borrar del mapa A ISRAEL Y ASESINAR A LOS JUDIOS, por Dios qué HECATÓMBE.

[vizhtor77]

son los judios los que quieren borrar a palestina, no te enteras. Y por si no te habias dado cuenta al pasar de los cuarenta Menuhin aoestaba no has visto la cantidad de ruidos que hace?

[dappledve]

lovely realy

[vizhtor77]

Menuhin sucked from 40 years and forward. Nobody else noticed?
