@emileskate This is also about the right tempo. This movement is supposed to be played that slowly. Learn more about the piece before criticizing, please. Listen to Itzhak Perlman (who is a great violinist, unlike Midori) playing this piece. You'll find that the tempo that he plays it at is similar.

@tinaterr @emileskate You two obviously aren't very experienced in music. Teachers encourage such movement as a means of improving the students' tone and musicality. Her technique is also quite good, and she has a good tone quality. Please learn more about the subject that you are critiquing before attempting to offer criticism. Btw, I listened to this "Midori" you mentioned. Midori is a mediocre violinist, so I don't know why you're mentioning her as if she were one of the greats.

[tinaterr]

I agree with emileskate. Who does this girl think she is? Midori? She needs to stop moving so much, it's distracting to the audience and seems ridiculous with her technique level.

[pajamasisters7]

There are definitely things that can be worked on to improve but i think that overall it's very musical and has a beautiful tone, especially considering the circumstance.

keep working! =]

[emileskate]

You are terribly pretentious, have a lack of technique, play too slow, 0 stars

Practise more !!!
