Niccolò Paganini - Violin Concerto No. 2

Violin Concerto No. 2 - 'La Campanella' - Yehudi Menuhin
Niccolò Paganini (1782-1840) With this amazing violin play he gets full theaters. People start whispering that Paganini his hands are not his own hands that stroke over the violin, but the devil his hands! Paganini said about this: It doesn't matter what people say about me, as long as they say something about me!

In the time Paganini wrote this, he was the only one skilled enough to play this piece!

Thanks for watching!

while lestening to this i just close my eyes and laugh dont know why

i'm not surprised but the number of positive comments, but i am surprised that so few people have commented on the violinist's performance. i didn't think it was great. a few mistakes from 0:43 - 0:51 and others. but perhaps that's being overcritical. it was an overall good performance, but not great in my book.

simplemente perfecto

there is no point of being faster..... dynamic is important and tempo.....if its slow and fast and quiet and loud its good, but if its only fast and loud its static ( sry for bad english gram.)

i don't wanna believe that the man that play's this piece i yahudi menuhin.....he is e great violonist but this i m afraid is a bad performance ...i mean vadim repin plays this piece in a video where he is just twelve ....just listen to him ...faster a looooooot , he most clear passages and harmonics i mean ...i don't doubt menuhin but this is not a good performance

I really enjoy this piece by Pag, but I prefer Bach's violin compositions overall. I feel like I'm missing something haha. Can you give me some recommendations of Paganini? I've heard his caprices no. 5 and 24 btw.

ps, "..come close to... playing, the violin like him" do you have unknown records of Paganini or something ;-)

thanks,

Tony

Liszt transcribed this piece for piano. Paganini was the creator of this beautiful melody :-)

[dragons454]

this sound like with liszt's la campanella etude... btw, the violin's great! i can even imagine that violins can reach those high notes (well, because this is my first time to hear such piece). XD

I discovered Paganini when I was young, and I have always had the same opinion : no one has ever come to close to writing for, or playing, the violin like him-- ever. Bravo !
