  • @DualThunder haha my teacher ended up making me play the first (i've been playing it for like seven months) and i just played it for a competition. in my opinion, those annoying fast runs were more difficult than the g string stuff, but i loved the movement a lot! my teacher said he's going to make me learn movements 2 and 3 too, haha.

  • @careinn10 third movement is i think a bit easier than the first movement and is probably the one to learn before the first movement. Technically the first movement is much harder to pull off and it requires a lot more of the soloist in terms of command of the instrument, especially on the G string. but in any case you'll have to buy the music so you can look at both anyway and choose which you think would be better to do

  • Sounds soooo cool! Anyone know where j can find the music for this? All the sites I found don't have the right part

  • @careinn10 Play the whole thing!

  • Saint-Saens with Francescatti is like France with French people. Unconditionally united and a rare experience of solidarity. It makes this rendition one of a kind: a jewel of a kind.

  • PERFECT

  • @lmfviolet78

    It's funny that you say that becauseg the fast passage in the middle of the first movement was a gamebreaker for me, whereas the slow ones made up for my wounds.

  • @careinn10 you should probably do the first movement. It's just as wonderful and has more slow expressive passages, which are almost harder than the fast runs in a way.

  • @careinn10 Start at the beginning.

  • @rapter9800 He was my favorite violinist when I was a kid, and you guessed right - he was electrifying live. I heard a Symphonie Espagnol from him in Carnegie Hall (I think it was Cleveland with Szell) in the middle 60's. That performance would have made your hair stand on end. I forget how many times he was called back to the stage afterwards. We in the audience just would not leave. Funny thing, he only played 4 movements. In those days it was not uncommon to leave off the Scherzo.
