I am 92 yrs old, I grew up listenning Fritz Crizler, Jasha Heifez and then David Oisttrakh.And after listening Augustin Hadelich for couple of times I believe that he is perfect just like them. I cannot find a proper word to describe his virtuosity.. Gokce Ergun.
Amazing sir that you got to hear all these legends live!
I'm 83 now. My late father was the first recordinng artist in India for Odeon records and agent in Bombay for HMV and I too grew up listening to both European and Hindustani classics. I remember another violinist of that genre, Kreisler and a little known Polish pianist called Benito Michaelangeli. They were ALL great.
I heard David Oisttrakh for the first time from my father's vinyl ... L V Beethoven violin concerto and now I can say that Hadelich is his true successor. I hope you are in good health, Mr. Ergun.
This amazing history ❤️ congratulations best wishes of long prosperous and healthy life
@@minoosethna4615 Great combination i can refer to that myself i grew up listening to classical music my father was a violinist and myself too. My father passed down to me his love of all the great masters of western music violinists plus eastern Egyptian classical music and musicians. I am now a professional musician i ma a part of the Oman symphony orchestra i am a concert maister in a chamber orchestra and a sub leader of the symphony orchestra.
I’m 132 years old and I Must say that this Guy is goated
Почему он такой?
Hahahahahahaha😂
лол
I clicked this video by accident. I don’t know anything about classical music. Before I realised it was over & I’m speechless. It was so beautiful ❤
I'm 87 years old and I had the privilege of seeing Yehudi Menuhin play in 1967 in my city... I'm also a musician and I taught for 68 years. Today I am already weakened and I am not able to play paganini... but I learned valuable lessons with his Caprichos and today I only listen to good violinists such as this beautiful young man.
Скрипачей много... Музыкантов мало)) согласна... Блестящий
Yes, I heard Menuhin when he came to Manila in the late 50s. My father took me to hear him perform. I was in college and in my teens. Am now 87.
One of the greatest of all time! Augustin Hadelich!!!
How many of you are listening to the whole thing a second or third time now?

Pls update
There's a hundred likes now bro
How is it powerful and soft wtf
@@aasserelzoghby6781 Oh sorry, my bad. I meant that it went from soft to powerful. I changed it :)
Update: I have a lot of school now, so it might take a while until I can get it done :(
His music is too good for my ears 😭 Truly the best violinist in our generation. Perfect musicality and technique ❤
His technique is so impressive that it is so precise, seems effortless and with so much class and simplicity
Wadrian Alef' exactly :)
not only that but then his tone is unbelievable. I don't know how he can be so well-rounded.
yes amazing player
Incredible combination of top notch string skills, musical intuition and taste, bravura and restraint in the right places and one hell of a lot of work. Continued success and praise for this fine young musician!
His timing is so perfect that his fingers move very slowly even in fast passages. Amazing to see.
Paganini has been my favourite rockstar since age 6 ❤
years from now people will watch this and recognize Augustin and this performance as one of our generation's best
❤
Ho 90 anni ho ascoltato tutti i grandi del passato compreso Accardo nonché una serie dei concorsi PAGANINI che ogni due anni si tengono al Carlo Felice di Genova.E'molto diffi cile fare dei confronti su decine di ascolti
Augustin is a gift for all music lovers.
This is beyond perfection; it is greatness, legendary.
Fancy seeing you here
you're over exaggerating
yeah I love this violinist. i heard him in dallas symph. one of the most incredible, accurate, expressive live performances i've ever seen
@@segzybae9291 no he is not exaggerating.
@@songur0614 yes he is.
I am a violinist and I have known this violinist since 20 years ago (online)...and I always knew he was very special. his playing was great and now he has a style and plays so delicately. He is definitely one of the best violinists around.
He is Alien!
I think this is the greatest rendition and performance to date.❤
Agreed ❤
Augustin Hadelich's cadenza on the Paganini Concerto is the best I have ever heard in my life. I almost cried.
I cried and drooled to be very honest.
Yes so perfect playing.
seems like the lady behind him wanted to marry him 😭
Definitely the best cadenza for this concerto! Absolutely flawlessly written and still maintaining the paganini style of flashiness and difficulty with musicality
his violin (Szeryng) is super gorgeous and he definitely deserves it. He plays as clean as Szeryng himself.
I’ve wondered what he plays, thanks! Good for him. Well deserved
His phrasing is superior to szeryng imho. Szeryng was a fabulous player and his Bach is divine but I missed the phrasing and form sometimes. Hadelich is a perfect player in every sense.
He could take one of the beautiful instruments from Henry's Ford collection (in Detroit;-))
@@florindacar8659 Now there's an interesting idea. Showcasing local musical instruments. As a violinist, I have to tell you that there's some risk to a performer who does this. The relationship between a violinist and his own instrument is extremely close. A performer on an unfamiliar instrument will be limited by not knowing exactly how it will respond, thus being forced to choose between trying things which may not work well on the instrument, or taking a very conservative approach which would be relatively bland. The only way this would work well would be if the performer could practice in advance with the instruments so that they could develop an understanding of its "quirks and features." If that were done, this could be a fabulous way to give some additional cultural value to musical instruments not presently being played.
He is playing his Del Jesu that he just received only a few months before this concert.
I am 242 years old and i never forget the day when I and Paganini meet each other
I did not know that there were people other than me who shed tears while playing the violin. It is truly comforting to feel a sense of belonging!!!
Listen to Bach
it happens to me too!
I cannot play and I still cry.
He wrote his own cadenza ! and it is beautiful, very soulful. The purity of Augustin's tone, the product of his bowing technique, and his composing distinguish him from other fine concert violinists. The del Gesu is icing on the cake. What a treat!
wow is potter your actual last name
Claire Potter is it really a del Gesu? Felt kind of like a Strad to me, but as these violins all get older, the edge starts to fall away
I only ask because I have a del Gesu model myself (after Cannon) by a serious Cremonese maker. It had caused great controversy in my own career. Quite a polarizing effect! Some people hate. Others love it ask me tons of questions about it
@@motiv4412 He does. It is the guarneri once owned by szerngy
The "Le Duc" guarnaerius
WHERE has he been all my life? Seriously.
Dead.
Practicing
Hadelich has an unbelievably crisp sound like a bird's chirp, along with impeccable intonation.
What a crude beautiful talented alien Mr. Hadelich is! 🖤☺️
How is he not more famous? This is the first time I've ever heard him. He sounds so very good
Many people know him
He is quite famous and has played with many of the top conductors. I imagine that they are queueing up to play with Hadelich.
He is famous
He is, but not so well known outside the classical world (At least for me, since it took me a while to know about hadelich)
Okay. That's good to know. It was just me haha
Augustin Hadelich , wonderful in Paganini , what a talent
I was actually there to view it, first time at an orchestra with my piano teacher, and I got to listen to him and hear a Stradivarius. One of my most cherished gifts I ever received in my life.
Hey :D Just wanted to inform you that he didn't play his Stradivari "Ex Kiesewetter" 1723 but the Guarneri del Gésu "Leduc" 1744 at the concert :) Yes I'm fun at parties :P
Lucky you, I bet it was amazing. Do you play violin as well as piano? Piano is much harder, in my view!!
M. S. Haha! 👍
Stop…. I’m getting jealous! But glad you had such a knowledgeable teacher and that fortunate learning opportunity. Elizabeth C
Perfectly balanced musicality. You can tell he really thought considered how every single note would sound best, and then gave it extra nuance, while still respecting the original meaning of the music. He's not playing to impress us with technical skills, but to produce the best possible music.
I have listened to many Paganini interpretations, including Salvatore Accardo, Leonid Kogan etc, these previous two are of course my favourite. But today, I declared that Mr. Hadelich has the BEST interpretation, and now ranked 1st in my own ranking.
Standing ovation well deserved
Hadelich is honestly on another level, you’re my favourite violinist!! And that cadenza after the first movement - I’m in LOVE. That skill, that virtuosity…one can only dream. ❤❤
Am back to listen to this again ❤
his cadenzas are beautiful as usual
What a good young man to be able to play Paganni with such perfection and simplicity !
I had to muster great force of will to resist from listening to the entire performance. I just heard the first two pages of the solo violin part and no more. I didn’t want to spoil it for myself because I will be attending Mr Hadelich’s performance of this very same concerto with The Florida Orchestra in St. Petersburg next month. But the little I heard has convinced me that this is the best and most beautiful interpretation of the Paganini Concerto I’ve heard in my life since Shmuel Ashkenazi’s recording on Deutsche Grammaphon from decades ago when I was a teenager. I just love his refreshingly original and innovative approach to this often-played piece. He emphasizes the singing, Bel Canto character rather than the “look at my dazzling technique” approach that most fiddlers prefer. Mr. Hadelich is the Numero Uno among today’s great violinists, in my opinion, and I’m so grateful he’s coming down to Florida soon. Thank you!! 🙏🏻🎻
Check out Francescatti and Motropoulos
I don't want to be pessimistic, but I'd be very surprised if that concert will be taking place. Maybe you should watch till the end.
How was it and how much is the ticket cuz I rather listen to unaltered Hadelich greatness
I also heard Shmuel as a kid!! I never liked it though.... it would have been interesting to listen to Heifetz version but I think he never recorded it.
I love your comments about Augustin’s playing, you were spot on. I’m so sorry that his concert in Tampa was cancelled, and that you were unable to see it. My prayers are for the future, that this beautiful music will be restored to its proper concert hall venues! 🙏❤️
I doubt any other concert violinist has faced the incredible challenges this superlative young violinist has had to face. And in spite of it all he plays with such passion and love of life that I dare think Paganini himself would applaud. He is without a doubt a bright rising star. Bravo🎻👏👏👏
Очень нежно, виртуозно и индивидуально. Браво!!!
Nobody can play this better, bravo Augustin!!!
*laughs in lingling*
@@user-ww2nd4co2p lol
@@user-ww2nd4co2p But he already is a lingling who practice 40 hours a day
Augustin is AMAZING, one of the greatest, most true violinists alive and definitely on my "Mount Rushmore" of favorite current players. But if this is the best Paganini you've heard, you must go listen to Michael Rabin right now!! It'll blow you away.
@@blundgrenviolin lol Augustin compare to Hilary Hahn's version?
To wake up to this on my Birthday is what I’d call ‘Birthday Heaven’ ✨💫💝 pure perfection! Simply the best 💃🏻🎉
This is one of the best Paganini Concerto No. 1 performances I have ever heard. Techniques ,to him, are no longer something to impress the audience but the integral part of his being. His fingers effortlessly flied on the fingerboard, producing notes that were as pure and sweet as the honey that instantly melted in your ears. The last time I had such excitement was when I listened to Shlomo Mintz played the same concerto using Paganini’s own violin “El Cannone”. Bravo👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉
Old man and the Sea this is a very well put comment. Thanks for putting it into words for me!
Well put. So beautiful this performance.... 'producing notes that were as pure and sweet as the honey that instantly melted in your ears' ... exactly how it is
Did he play it in the original key
Bravo! Thanks so much!
Some virtuosos are technically perfect, and then there are some who perform with their very soul. That's what makes the difference between Augustin and so many, many others. When I hear his music I can't help but feel that it is exactly how the composer wanted that music to be played.
With hadelich..you hear the music beyond the technical expertise..there's no such thing as " wow this is such a difficult piece to play" ..with hadelich it's always "this is a very beautiful piece of music"
It's like an Rossini opera, a lot of Bel Canto.
Oh my, gosh! That was phenomenal.
Paganinis Konzert D-Dur, das die Finessen der Violin-Technik geradezu vordergründig zur Schau stellt - diese makellos zu bewältigen und dabei dennoch so musikalisch, ja so liebevoll zu spielen - das ist höchsten Lobes wert!
Haha...
I saw Mr. Hadelich play in Oslo. I have no words to describe how much I loved his performance. The only I regret is not having known this wonderful violinist before. I salute you Mr. Hadelich, hoping for better times so I can see you again.
Um, I can’t quit returning to listen again! ❤️ The best!
Hadelich is so skilled, great playing, wonderful concerto. Paganini was not only a virtuoso, he was a fine composer indeed.
Crystal clear, fully vibrant and silver tone, sung with heart and soul. Technique is merely a tool, not the end game. Music and fantasy thrroughout, I truly loved it. My favorite.
The Young Man is Destined for a Stellar CAREER ! He is also one of the most promising violinist of His GENERATION !! It is Always So Encouraging to See Fresh New BRILLIANT Young Talent on the Horizons Always Insuring that the Future of this Great Art form is in Very Capable Hands !! At His Current Pace , We just might be Listening to THE NEXT PEARLMAN !!!...
Hadelich and the Leduc together make this an outstanding performance of the Paganini no.1 to remember. I also loved the Cadenza written by this young man, very sentimental, very touching!
Impeccable intonation, especially the tenths. Magnificent bow arm. Loved the interpretation and 'easy' cadenza...
I was interested to learn he plays on Szeryng's delGesu. When I was a student in Pittsburgh in the early 60's Sidney Harth invited Szeryng to play a recital for us. He was in Pgh. to play with the Symphony. He walk into our small recital hall, opened up his DOUBLE violin case and showed us his Strad and his Guarneri del Gesu and it's likely the same one Hadelich plays here. He then played a Bach Sonata. There's no more worthy heir to this magnificent violin. You hear every single note played perfectly. What a joy to hear and watch this phenomenal player.
Probably , the best violinist today.( Incomparable harmonics)
Play so emotional. Greatest version I’ve ever heard.
Every time i click one of his videos, a voice will tell me, nahh it wont be that good. And every single time when he starts to play, i am pleasantly proven wrong and blown away with his violin playing. This is such a wonderful feeling.
This man is channeling Paganini himself. Just pure perfection! Bravo!
A joy to watch,hear and obsess…if only I practiced more.. not even close! Together the Detroit should find and develop more like him .Bravissimo!!
BRAVO AUGUSTIN and ORCHESTRA!!! (Juri, Estonia)
Cada cuánto lo vuelvo a escuchar🌱💕💝❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
The 7 people who gave this thumbs down only did so because they were overwhelmed and hit the wrong button.
Elizabeth F best comment 🤣
They play drums. LOL
Its 69 now. Tellnthem this is musik, man, not noise
It’s 100 now idk why people press dislikes on music videos like what is it gonna achieve
@@katarinaenright5404 well it's two more dislikes after 1 week of your comment!! 😞😟😖😫😠😡
Nothing short of extraordinary! I agree with all the comments below - a modern-day Kreisler. Hadelich owns the concerto. He brings the flair of bygone years and modern day perfection together in a breathtaking performance. Fun to watch the bedazzled expression on the faces of the string section and the admiration from the other parts of the orchestra. The cadenza is a special treat all on its own. Few have commented on the match between the soloist and the orchestra. Jader Bignamini is a highly empathetic and brilliant conductor, bringing out the best in the Detroit Symphony. The conducting of the orchestral part of the Paganini #1 is often blunt, but not here. What an awesome performance.
It would be very, very difficult to find a more virtuosic performance of this Paganini Concerto than this. The runs are crystal clear and each note rings out. Such fine bowing technique. The Detroit Symphony sounds at home with this artist in Symphony Hall with marvelous acoustics. This video captures the essence of what the live concert must have been like. Loved the spontaneous applause between movements which was well deserved. World class sounds all the way around. Simply marvelous!!
Totally agree with you. This is a mind blown performance
Michael Rabin played it the best, I believe...however this is indeed excellent!
Applause between movements isn't encouraged
@@IceOfPhoenix88 But is often appreciated, and that rule was never a rule until relatively recently.
I find each performance and performer has their own charm. I personally prefer a slightly more playful interpretation like Kavakos', however the technical skill and overwhelming precision shown by Hadelich here are phenomenal!
This is the most perfect performance I've ever heard. Augustin Hadelich = perfection.
Yo tengo 68 años, vivo en Querétaro, Méx. Tuve un programa en radio Universidad Autónoma de Querétaro y con esta música empezaba mi programa sobre el medio ambiente, libros, Etc. 06-Dic-2023.
A very impressive interpretation and technique far from being mechanic like many violin masters. His violin speaks the language of music fluently, naturally and effortless with a very sweet, soft and beautiful tone.
Vladimir Vasquez perfect description! Thank you!
Right on target Vladimir! Totally agree with you. Many play this concerto too aggressively and without the charm, humor, or drama. Hadelich sings, conserving the melodic structure even in fast virtuoso passages.
I was there with friends and we all agreed, it was one of the most beautiful performances we've ever heard. Incredible, truly special, look forward to seeing him again.
His playing makes my heart sing. I've been playing many years and only in my wildest dreams. I appreciate his hard work.
Experiencing the wonder Paganini for the first time and wow I’m blown away I think I found my new obsession
I get to this over and over again. Specific passages, specific sounds. It touches every part of my soul and makes me dream. This is not a complete understanding of the piece, a classy and brave performance. I truly find no words to describe this greatness
What an incredible performance! Mr. Hadelich has a very sweet sound which he combines perfectly with precise intonation. I believe he is one the of the grestest performers in history.
Leo Orsi I, too, love the sweetness of it. Very good description!
Totally agree👍
Ive watched this a few times now. Hadelich is phenomenal.
Wonderful. Just incredible.
Every note is considered, and makes sense musically, and when he plays the music comes so far before the technical aspects (which are effortless) - perhaps how Paganini himself would have wanted it and perhaps how he played? The downward chromatic scale at around 10:55 is one example of how he takes something showy and makes music with it.
Exactamente.Del mismo modo yo digo de Martha Argerich que Chopin la habría amado.
Brilliant Cadenza! More soloists should try making their own cadenzas. In the spirit of creativity! Cheers, Herr Hadelich!
God sent us Augustin Hadelich let us not waist this talent...
Everytime i listen to paganini with the virtuoso violinist, it always stabs my heart very deeply
Para mí uno de los mejores violinistas que ha dado este mundo, técnica y sonido impresionantes, un GRANDE
This Man is just so relaxed and calm while playing, I love listening to this piece, and he just makes it so much more musical
This is the most naturally musical interpretation I’ve heard of this work. The phrasing and timing is amazing and every notes ‘sings’ that you forget about how technically difficult this work is. Very different to other performances of this work I’ve heard. The Del gesu isn’t too bad either!
Merveilleuse interprétation Augustin ! Un moment de plénitude merci pour ce bonheur ! Bravos tellement mérités !!!
Dearest Hadelich, you are most certainly out of this world! The mere act of listening to your performance causes an explosion of feelings and sensations, as if our souls were in a dialogue, one which I wish never came to an end. Please, keep enlightening and blessing this world with your music!
This is the first time I have enjoyed a Paganini concerto. Even the best violinists seem to struggle through it so one is always on tenterhooks.This amazing guy can actually PLAY it. One comes away richer for the experience . . . . such clarity and always always perfect intonation! Stunning.
The violinist of the century among us
Joa0508 just what i think. he is such an accomplished, soulful, and beautiful violinist i have ever heard. i
😮
The first violinist to not force the opening with grandiose phrasing, over-exaggerate the thirds, and all the technical passages!
Markov should take lessons with Augustin.
You are the greatest young and most human violinist of the new age!
Un-be-lie-va-bly brillant violinist. I play violin myself and listen to many different soloists but Hadelich really stands alone. This concerto is so beautiful and virtuosic and only Hadelich can perform it with such cleanness and brilliance ❤️❤️❤️
I had the privilege to see and hear him live, he brings every kind of emotion by the way he plays! Mostly tears tat there can be such magnificence with us! Just love him!
38 minutes of Heaven. Thank you
On one level it is just great to hear a performance of this piece which understands that everything Paganini wrote was, above all, lyrical, and - a few obvious lollipops and flashy variations aside - not merely an opportunity to bash the way through a load of violinistic gymnastics (the contemporary newspaper reviews most often report the rapt attention which Paganini's singing tone aroused and commanded of his audience, and not the mere flashiness of his playing). On another level, if Nathan Milstein was the Aristocrat of the Violin, then Mr Hadelich is surely his rightful successor. There's my tuppence-worth ♫
Augustin, we need to have a talk. This is the SECOND night in a row you have upended things for me. You keep trapping me into watching you. I said to myself: "I'm just going to listen to the first moment." Then I said: "okay, I just do the second movement." Before I knew it I had only 10 minutes left. So, I said, "what the hell. I might as well finish it out." You're playing is magnetic. What can I say. And what a well-deserved standing ovation. You should have also gotten a standing ovation for the Sebelius you played with the Frankford Radio Symphony in the church. (PEOPLE WATCH THAT ONE - it will have you in tears!!!!) Going to try to get on with my day. I may be back for more later tonight. Ha!
Just perfect, damn I love hearing him play
I have performed in concert with Augustin (myself in the orchestra) in my city several times. Always a pleasure!
What an incredibile control on the bow
I was privileged enough to be there for the performance and it was incredible!
Lucky
Me too. 2nd row center . Incredible to see him that close. Hard to believe there is a better living violinist. And bravo my DSO!
Love his portamento all over the place.
I could stop listening - this is beyond imagination. Bravissimo, Augustin Hadelich!
Fantástic, very beautiful, ❤❤❤
Wonderful performance. Such clarity and impeccable technique. Amazing cadenza.
La finesse de l interprétation est sublime. Toujours autant d emotion qui me transporte chaque fois et chaque jour. Je ne peux m en passer Merci mille fois de nous partager votre talent. Vous êtes un artiste prodigieux
Утонченность покаряет...
Magistral interpretación por esta prestigiosa Orquesta Sinfónica de Detroit del concierto para víolín Nº1 compuesto por el genial maestro italiano Nicoló Paganini que está considerado como uno de loa arquetipos más importantes del virtuosismo de obras para violín del Romanticismo. El solista Augustin Hadelich también nacido en Italia nos obsequia con un auténtico regalo para deleite de nuestros oídos. BRAVO !!! Saludos desde España.
Magnificent violinist, Augustin Hadelich! Such a well crafted composition by Paganini. Enjoyed it from it's beginning to it's finish!
As a rule I make it a habit never to speak in absolutes. Never! But, this is absolutely the finest recording of this piece that I have heard in many years in my opinion. Augustin's performance offers us, the listeners, every single note to savor as it's own delicacy for however long the note merits. In this way he reminds me of Szeryng's recording of the Bach Sonatas and Partitas. Both are in complete command of their instrument - precision without harshness, warmth without schmaltz and speed without reckless abandon around the many ups and downs and turns and bends required to deliver a truly virtuous performance of very demanding music. We should all keep in mind that the efforts of the conductor, Jader Bignamini, and the Detroit Symphony were just as masterful and deserving of equal appreciation for this beautiful work of art. God Bless them all.
