  • OMG ... 4:02 , is it real ??

  • probably a digital glitch in the audio-doubt tthe excellent director would not have selected it if it wasn't ok . On the other hand the rest of the clips discusses problems with the violin... (solved quite a bit later in Paris by the way )

  • Miss Ida, you are beautiful and sexy, you are not old. you have all the charms of woman suppose to have.

  • Dear Ms. Haendel I wish you could play forever. You are truly amazing.

  • @koklim82 Yes, they put that clip in there to right after she talked about her if age affected her playing

  • If anyone wants to use Ida's age against her and say that she is not skilled anymore- they can post a video of themselves playing the Brahms concerto and let everyone see how skilled they are.

  • @koklim82 It's a wolftone in the violin...cellos often have them, violins less often.

  • Fantastic playing even in her advanced years. Who gives a shit about any blemishes, her greatness still shines through.

  • I am sorry - but she was just shaking... at the age of 80 plus one is not skilled anymore to play Brahms Concerto like a 30 year old...

    The violin is probably perfectly okay as is her bow. and sorry, if it really occurred 1 1/2 years before why did she not go to the violin maker earlier???

    She tries to hide her age... but no one can. She should find an appropriate end in dignity and not play until nobody can take her for serious anymore...

  • I respect her,but her brahms is not good at all

  • 9:27 - 9-42 -

    "There is never perfection in life.That's the truth...Aiming for perfection,but never achieving it." - Words of Ida Haendel

  • at 4:00 to 4:04 is an amazing bowing skill from her, it is great!
