@milstein91 Go listen to André Rieu, man. I have no time to pseudo-artists, Garrett is an insult to the art, and it is even worse if he was a decent player before, it means he could be something but chose the "easy life".
I STUDIED WITH RICCI IN 1965-66 AND I MUST ADMIT THIS RECORDING SHOWS HIS AMAZING GIFTS & DISCIPLINE. HIS PLAYING IN 1966 WAS NOT SLOPPY. HE HAD INCREDIBLE TECHNIQUE THEN ALSO.
AS WE AGE, THOUGH, WE ALL LOSE OUR SOME OF OUR PHYSICAL CAPABILITIES. RICCI WAS A SOMETIMES FIERY INDIVIDUAL, AND WILL PROBABLY BE BEST REMEMBERED FOR HIS PAGANINI INTERPRETATIONS, ALTHOUGH HE WAS A VERY FINE MUSICIAN ALSO.
HE LET US PLAY HIS GUARNERI, AND WAS A VERY KIND, HUMOROUS, SENSITIVE & UNDERSTANDING PERSON.
@assindiastignani It's a pitty. I've watched of him some really kitsch rendition of violin music and that ridiculous section of breaking the violin speed record, obviously bumhug. But I believe if you say he was a promise. I just don't get to be condescending with kitsch rendition below the critical published as superlative music.
@olivleonardo Let's stay with the original subject: child prodigies, of which David Garrett was one. He had a terrible childhood, was pushed to the brink of total emotional and physical breakdown by overly ambitious parents, and at some point just dropped out. Maybe one day he'll come back to the classical scene.I hope he does. Incidentally, his concerts are actually quite entertaining. Have you ever bothered to go hear one, or do you just criticize in youtube?
Haha love 3:06.
