[@aldencrispin1086]

It’s always hard to believe the piano and violin weren’t recorded at the same time.

[@personalnotesmusic]

Silky-smooth bowing...transcends us to another realm.

[@e-spy]

Goodness. I am nearly out of breath because I simply couldn't breathe while you played that! No one but you can handle an instrument that speaks so many languages and emotions all at once! You played it as the prayer it was meant to be. Thank you!

[@nickcvh]

One of the most beautiful interpretations I’ve ever heard. Thank you.

[@antoniooo3072]

from the first notes it enters your soul and leaves you alone with tears of joy

[@lsjt8924]

You made me cry, your playing is so expressive and yet it’s refined. So many musicians sacrifice precision in order to ‘communicate passion’ or conversely focus only on control and forget to lean in to their emotions, but you managed to convey both qualities. Thank you.

[@wendyshell8679]

LSJ Tansey this song as well as Méditation de Thaïs bring me both tears and comfort at the recent loss of my mother. His playing has really helped me to release some of that pain.

[@janaka-do5486]

Ich mag diese Interpretation! Zuerst eine Stophe im warmen tiefen Sound der Altstimme bevor die klare Sopranstimme einsetzt. Und der Schluss mit den Flageoletts schwebt himmelwärts. Bravo!

[@Nonkel_Jef]

Absolutely breathtaking. It's a shame Bach himself can't hear you play. He's really missing out.

Beautifully played, with emotion, in harmony with Jesus's mother character's beauty. May God Almighty bless you today while performing your duties and God's will.

[@ViolinHobby]

This is breathtakingly beautiful! Your lower register is so amazingly rich... it sounded almost like a viola! Wow! So delicately played in both violin and piano. This is EPIC! Thank you as always, Augustin!! :-)

[@ruthwhetsel3594]

Whoops! I touched the thumbs down icon when I meant to touch Reply. It's actually many thumbs up from me; and I was simply trying to agree with the comment above! Thank you, Augustin.

[@5743dan]

v Very emotional rendition !!! To God be the glory. Thank you Augustin. I want to hear this all day!

[@FrekkiPlay]

I have been able to feel the sadness of the lower tones, towards a sharper transition of peace and tranquility, to end in a fight between the two of them in which serenity finally prevails. You transmit a lot with the sound of your violin, I liked it a lot, congratulations

Agustín ! Te escucho y más fuerzas me das para seguir estudiando, que Maravilla, sentir el AVE MARÍA. Tengo 74 años y estoy aprendiendo a tocar el violín tocó ya varías canciónes una de ellas El Aleluya. Dios te bendiga y bendiga tus manos para deleitarnos con tus canciones.

[@anawong8878]

I am a violin player from Hongkong... I agree with u that Augustine plays his music all straight from his heart that encourages us to play more and more！！！！Take heart sir I wish u enjoy violin u r marvelous keep learning the violin as we all grow old！！！！

WOW! I just watched your performance of Sarasate's Romanza Andaluza. Now this. I can't wait to listen to this again with my young grandchildren so that they may know there is still a bit of humanity left in this increasingly ugly world. God bless you.

[@alejandroormeno5009]

Really impressive Maestro Hadelich!!! I just love the way you performed this heavenly piece of music. From Lima Perú

[@mk_master4031]

Absolutely brilliant performance, I felt every second of it, simply beautiful.

[@dianal.1279]

That's a great moment for music. Take something "easy to play", not like a Paganini piece... add the musician and his instrument. He's left alone with the notes... and he made it all so uniquely himself! Wow! Gorgeous tone, beautiful colors, to die for dynamics... you're absolutely great, Augustin! I'm so very happy you exist! Thank you very much for sharing!🌹🌻🌹🌻

[@garrymeadows4452]

Yes!, every thing you say and more. i can never find the right words to describe the the perfection and beauty of a performance such as that. And he does it all the time. Another so called 'easy to play ' piece that he makes his own is nocturne in c sharp minor (Chopin). Like you i am so happy he shares his music with the world. We are privileged indeed.

[@victoriataylor5584]

It's funny you should mention that, I was thinking the same thing, Paganini is just too much for some people.

[@fidulario]

Slow doesn't mean easy... at all. This is hard as hell.

Dear Augustin Hadelich, I have a very special request for you. First I want to express my admiration for you for your unique way of playing the violin that elevates me so much and inspires me. This is my request, please, I would like you to make a video of at least 1 hour or more with this same Ave Maria melody that is repeated over and over again without commercial breaks. A big hug and Blessings. Thank you so much.

This is beautiful....and the piano accompaniment is memorized....as well

[@ceciliahuang3984]

The piano part is not an accompaniment. It’s a Prelude from Bach’s Well-Tempered Clavier. Gounod composed the Ave Maria melody to go with it. The piano part is an original solo work itself.

Hey, Augustin. I heard you play paganini live with Oregon a few years ago. Hands down the most wonderful live performance of a violin solo I have ever heard, and that includes Perlman. Congratulations on your career.
