No standing ovation at all?!?

Terrible. That was an amazing performance. They should all have stood and clapped FOREVER.

Hey iSkylla, I'd like to see you play this concerto and see if you even have the endurance to play all of this. I personally have played this w/ an orchestra and I see nothing wrong about Perlman's performance

[IcarusDrowning88]

@lemidi It was kind of a mediocre performance really... An attempt to help a young Jewish violinist by a Jewish violinist of a previous generation. For some reason though, the caliber of playing did not remain consistent between Jewish generations. Shrug*

@chocofreak13 To give standing ovations is very American - in other countries the audience uses to clap the hands while sitting and shouting "Bravo" ;)

AMAZING!

Thank you @maggini1

I'm really looking forward to seeing him live one day, I admire him so much!

This is an incredible performance! But i think he should have had a more contrast between dynamics.

They get my standing ovation for sure.

What a great performance.

Incredible composition.

I remember playing this as a student, as if I could forget, this piece is very tough. I think the man did a wonderful job. With the exception of a bit of the first and second movements, most portions are not atonal.

[TerryChoco]

Figure 8 ( 2:13 ) is awesome :3 the bit where the violins get 3 lines of what the solo is playing XD Love it <3

@SyntheticProsthetic That's a very good point. This movement is certainly not atonal in the true sense of the word.

[SyntheticProsthetic]

@bannan61 From study of Barber's piano works, I have found that he frequently puts a 12-tone row over a tonal chord structure, making the melody seem "atonal" but retaining tonality nonetheless. I do not know if he uses that technique in this piece, however.

He performed this with the Lansing Symphony here in Michigan and I was privileged to have been on the piccolo part...he was AMAZING!!  So much passion and such a GREAT SOUND!!
