Anne-Sophie Mutter--"Devil's Trill" 1/2

[@neldapollack3051]

I found this performance very moving. She played right to my heart

[@ISaidWhatISaidd]

I'm glad to have someone who agrees with me. Most people don't really see it. I don't understand.

[@animulaparvula]

I've listen this performance at least 1,000 times. Finally, I could watch it. In my opinion, even if it is played in a such romantic manner, this is a great performance

[@2009jaja]

Im happy im not the only who can tell what emotions this peice gives off she truley understands not only the devils mad hatred but his eternal lonliness of being seperated from his father

[@rrougier]

There are many ways to play a piece...I love this as much as I love Perlman's. And I also love Adam Kostecki's version with his students. Bravo!

[@stacymovie]

I love Anne because she reminds me of how I play a lot of drama, and great phrasing....i really like her bow arm too its so expressive

[@Mossiek]

Marvelous stuff, indescriptible feeling.

[@violinhunter2]

Dazzling - as always!!!

[@michrigan]

It's not talkin, it's listening with your heart

[@wakizashi333]

I'm honestly surprised to see how many people seem to dislike Mrs. Mutter. Sure, I would agree that she may be less talented than some performers like Perlman, Hahn, Shaham, Vengerov, etc., but I would bet money that she's better than any of those that have left a comment here so far (especially me, by an incredibly long shot). Of course, you don't have to be as good or better than her to point out inadequacies, but at least have some respect for a superior, please.

@iiinoodle yer so unique and intelligent for being so young and liking classical music

[@amineurin]

vanessa mae is a pop star . anne-sophie is an artist! only sarah chang comes into my mind ..

[@MrFpam]

It's not a song. This is a movement of a violin sonata.

[@IgnatzKolisch]

Is there any authentic version of this anywhere? This one involves a modern piano, which didn't exist when the piece was written. I just want to discover ONE SINGLE authentic recording, somewhere, ever!

[@IgnatzKolisch]

Guermide Guermide THANK YOU! That one is fantastic, exactly what I was looking for!

[@DynamoTk]

Anne-Sohie Mutter also have another version of this piece with clavichord. U just have to look it up.

[@ElsweyrDiego]

Can you post the link? i can't find anywhere!

[@esuna6352]

This is the Kreisler arrangement, the original of Tartini's if I'm not mistaken is played with an orchestra. Anne-Sophie Mutter did a studio recording of the original Tartini version.

[@Imbetterthanmost]

@jualkyn right but she's expressing the pining of the music.... it was meant to depressing and mournful. She is simply feeling the emotion so deeply that she must express it. Sorry I get what you're saying though

[@reddragonready]

@kehwa How can anything called Devil's trill be played "over dramatic"? ;)

[@lupin90ful]

dear Evil, i've got a question (leggend say that if u can play the song devil may appear)

[@Ravenshadow78]

@dhgcello I've heard Vanessa Mae play the Tchaikovsky Violin concerto flawlessly. What else would she have to do to impress someone as sophisticated as you?

[@ItachiTheDekuScrub]

@OculusDraconis Agreed~!

[@akumaki88]

Dioooos miooo! Parece q se acaba el mundo y las cabras locas se escaparon de su jaula chillando por doquier beee beeee.. o parece una guitarra electrica con distorcionador wa wa wa.. imposible para mi seguir escuchando...

[@dubu_jubu]

:O how long is this song

[@fifilabellechapelle7132]

A song has lyrics and is sung by a human.

[@Imbetterthanmost]

@jualkyn it's hard when you are playing music not to convey some facial expression... I play (not even close to remotely as good as Mrs. Mutter) and people tell me I look like a lobster (my face gets super red)

[@BiggerBadderViolist]

@wakizashi333 how is she less talented than Perlman, Hahn, Shaham, or Vengerov?!?! She is better than ALL of those violinists. You know nothing clearly.

[@jonasdiederich1895]

who said that she is less talented than Perlman, Hahn or Vengerov??! She is a legend!! But I think she plays not better but just in a very individual, different way. Vengerov is the Ysaye third King, Mutter plays very majesticly, and Perlman is the Gliss-King, sound very sweet.

[@michrigan]

Please! All the classical snobs and self-proclaimed experts get real. She is so much better than the rest it is shocking. Use your ear and your heart rather than your brain and all your friends who agree with you.

[@JeanDeLaCroix_]

I don't really like her performances in general but i must admit this music is well played. I don't agree with those hwo say she's better than Vanessa-Mae; the two versions just don't target the same public and Vanessa-Mae's is a little modernized, where is the problem ?

[@fifilabellechapelle7132]

Reviews that compare other performers is so lame and useless. This is not a contest.

[@5SecondsOfFrame]

oh how i love this song and about the dreamlike origin coming from what he explains is something not as good as what he heard.

[@Ravenshadow78]

@dhgcello lol. It's all about entertaining and the truer your artistry the better you entertain. Don't discount Gaga or Perry, both are admirable entertainers and equally admirable artists, you hardcore generalizrrrr.

[@ISaidWhatISaidd]

ah i like the original way of playing it much better than the vanessa mae version.

[@keithosmarferrer]

you won't know how "the original" sounds until you see the devil playing at the foot of yer bed :P

[@omah12jyah]

She reminds me of Kathy Bates.

[@wannaplayarmy]

based god

[@ISaidWhatISaidd]

@Gnaeus1 ugh i know it ruins what the devil's trill is all about.

[@mabdulqadeer]

I love Anne's skill and interpretation. But I'll have to say, Perlman's rendition of this is more interesting.

[@kehwa]

@wakizashi333 It's not that she is less talented. Some people prefer less dramatic violin playing. Anne-Sophie Mutter is a drama queen when she plays: a la Sarah Chang. However, the bigger question is whether or not the piece is performed stylistically correct. In this case, the piece was over-dramatically performed. Kreisler was never a dramatic violinist, and the best quality about his playing was that he was as cool as a cucumber. Celebrate diversity as you wish, but style must be a factor.

[@michael616joaquin]

@michrigan Your argument is nonsense. How can the ear or heart convey any message to the psyche without the brain?

[@Sim882]

lacks the sensitivity of Oistrakh's version

[@fifilabellechapelle7132]

Then I would suggest that you be happy with the Oistrakh version. I'm sure many people would highly disagree with your six-word review.

[@BehindTheProscenium]

I know she's concentrating, but it really looks like she just found out that her dog died...

[@NicolaDelBen]

Italians do it better: watch?v=rsfCHZK8W6w ...

[@kang88mao]

The insipid performance indeed disappointed me...

[@fifilabellechapelle7132]

Your insipid comment disappointed me as you said nothing to support your opinion of this performance. I found this performance flawless and invigorating.

[@hansmuller-os5jl]

Vanessa Mae Is better

[@acryingonion]

dude i'd rather believe that you're trying to be sarcastic :D

[@fifilabellechapelle7132]

Comparing performers is useless and highly boring. Why not just enjoy the moment of what you're hearing. If you really don't like it, go on to something else. What would be the purpose of comparing with Heifetz, Perlman, Ehnes, Hahn, and anyone else who plays this piece? And why tell us about it? Why would we give a fig about what you think?

[@gabriellaschizzetta8851]

Amazing
