  • @politispittas I can't stand extreme nationalists either, so I guess that makes two of us :)

    I visited though the channel of @Obroten and in my opinion he isn't one, he's just someone who's excited!

    Anyway, thanks for replying. Regards! :)

  • More Kavakos/Bach please...

  • @Adorado31 Thanks for your reply. I agree with your notion i just cannot stand the Super Greeks (Ελληναράδες). Cheers:)

  • @politispittas You are right, I just think that there's nothing wrong (if you are Greek like @Obroten) with feeling proud that you share the same nationality with such a Great human being (not necessarily meaning that his Greekness has anything essential to do with his divine musicality). Of course, people of his calibre belong firstly to the world and secondly to their nation ("Ανδρών επιφανών πάσα γη τάφος" - "The whole earth is the sepulchre of famous men"-Pericles). Peace.

  • @Obroten

    OUR Leonidas Kavakos???? What you mean with this? Is he "ours" because he is Greek? That's a nasty joke my friend, Leonidas Kavakos belongs to Music-and that's that. And this is why he is such a great artist.

  • hate the cuts in the middle of a sentence!

  • This excerpt of the g-moll Fuga at the beginning is something extraordinary beautiful.

  • I want get to Greece after listening to him. He is so logical for me, maybe because I am half-Greek.

  • The GIANT of music!!!OUR Leonidas Kavakos!!!!Love from Greece!!!!

  • Thank you very much for posting this. It is great to hear Kavakos speaking about the music he plays - in English.

    What an amazing musician & human being he is.
