I don't believe it, edolify! I went to the same concert! It was the day before I moved to New York. I went with my family and did'nt expect anything and then this beautiful man walks on and plays the stars from the heavens! I've played the violin since I was 5 years old and this evening was like a revelation to me. I didn't know that it could be about telling a story of life on a violin. Anyone with more info on Jan Stigmer? Please post of you do!!!!
I know this guy! Heard him in Shanghai with Mendelssohn concerto. It was a rollercoaster ride!
Absolutely the best I've ever heard! So much personality. I remember jumping off my chair after the last movement without thinking. It was like a rock concert.
Thanks, glad you like it. Jan Stigmer is one of my all time favourites. I heard him first time at Wigmore Hall in London a few yerars ago. He played a Beethoven "Kreutzer" that was absolutely stunning! I also heared a concert recording of Sibelius violin concerto from Chicago that was like a nuclear blast! It's with so much personality and integrity.
fantastiskt original!

I agree completely with you all on this page :-) It's an honour to be in the audience when Mr Stigmer doing a recital.

I like the circus thing more in this movement. STill not crazy about it though. But, I say again, the playing is from heaven!

This is so great fun! It's like party music for me. I never loved Paganini but this is great with Jan Stigmer.

How he plays the first theme! Talk about "flick of the wrist"! So difficult but so easy sounding. Hard to play like that!

How wonderful! What a violinist! I'm so enjoying the Circus Orchestra thing. Hope to see him live soon.

This is the best! Just a great pleasure to listen to!
What an amazing violinist! I'm a proffessional player myself but did'nt know of Jan Stigmer. Thanks for the post Wodar.
