  • h-moll = h-minor..... 'B- minor' - what's?

  • @alfacentauri2727 I'm not quite sure what you're asking, but in German "h-Moll" is the same as "B minor" in English.

  • I found another BEAUTY for my favorites. Thank you!

    Am not quite sure if Paganini would have wanted his composition played like this - but Ivry Gitlis is certainly a virtuoso!

  • @mmbmbmbmb Gitlis' bold, passionate approach to this concerto is definitely one of a kind. It's unconventional, but I don't consider that a fault.

  • @musicanth NOT a fault at all ;o) ... I hope my comment didn't come across indicating that? Anyway we all have different preferences as far as interpretation is concerned. Be it piano, cello, voice or conducting. Long live diversity! Right?

  • @mmbmbmbmb I agree entirely :)

  • Magnificent performance. Is there a way to get a copy of the cadenza? I can't find one.

  • @alfacentauri2727 H in Germany is B in England, but B in Germany is B flat in England
