  • I don't know this woman but she looks like she could read your mind with those eyes of hers. (The music is nice too.)

  • @violinhunter2 Yes, when I first saw her in a movie, i was floored by her charisma. Glad you see it, too!

  • And the orchestra is? dadasopher?

  • The London Symphony Orchestra. I'll send you the amazon site in a message.

  • anyone wanna explain to me why there's a slideshow of pictures of some actress that seems to have no relevance to whats going on in the music? i ain't complaining, shes pretty hot, just a little confused

  • Gil Shaham does a beautiful rendition of this piece..since I am a lady the pictures don't do that much for me :) but she seems to be attractive :) I would rather look at Shaham...

see all

  • this is my favorite second movement of all time. it's so piercingly beautiful, i cry every time i hear it.

    though i have to be honest, those random pictures of that actress really annoy me because i just feel like they don't do the beautiful piece justice. i'd rather look at gil shaham.

    but then again, maybe that's because i'm female :)

  • shannyn is a angel on earth

  • @purvabriesmonic

    My error there. I hadn't heard of Gil Shaham and figured it was the woman in the picture.

  • hahaha nice idea of the photos to get entretained, and maybe to attract more people to classical music!

  • @intervalkid

    He. Gil Shaham.

  • @violinhunter2 Shannyn Sossamon

  • @Vanzetti1936

    She's no more flat in intonation than many soloists get from time to time. It's just a few cents for a couple lines and a bit from time to time.

    The orchestra doesn't have the best overall intonation. Perhaps she would have had more exact intonation had the orchestra been tighter.

  • @happypeanut11 My question exactly. I'm female and NOT floored by this woman's beauty like a lot of men .perhaps other women too...I LOVE THIS CONCERTO by Barber though..I'm an amateur violinist and recently played in an orchestra with a 13yr old prodigy playing this piece...PHENOMENAL...listen/vi­ew all 3 mvn't of Alina Ming Kobialka playing with the Parnassus Symphony ..1st & 3rd mvnts this young lady sounds LIKE pure divine inspiration ..unexplainable
