Augustin Hadelich plays his own cadenza to Paganini Violin Concerto No. 1 (2020)

[@ViolinHobby]

Limitless creativity, musicality, & technicality. Absolutely my favorite Cadenza.

[@blytheanneliese5408]

I love how elegantly he references different parts of the 1st movement, and how he includes the orchestra's melodies as well. Also THOSE HARMONICS! Absolutely stunning. And his intonation and sound are just as incredible. Amazing job!!!👍👍👍👍👍

[@Samvarth_Seegehalli]

Unlike the other cadenzas for Paganini's 1st violin concerto, which are just excuses to show how good the player is, Augustin's Cadenza has a sense of musicality and at the same time, gives the feeling of Paganini's virtuosity. Bravo!

[@andreasbyczkowski3435]

Well said! Also, I kindah like the trashy braggadocio of Paganini’s cadenzas too because of their HONEST, UNAPOLOGETIC AND BLATANT virtuosic self-gratification.

[@Iaido_Tests]

Where have you ever heard paganinis cadenza? Paganini never wrote them down as far as I know. There are 2 cadenzas typical for the first concerto: the Wilhelmi one and the Sauret one

[@TheAsianTree]

@@Iaido_Testsflesch and Kreisler wrote cadenzas as well

[@chessematics]

Exactly. We all know our performers are virtuosos. One doesn't need to prove that every time. We are there to enjoy the music. We are there for what they have to GIVE us, not SHOW us.

[@JK-ru5vo]

I wish the cadenza was longer

[@toddmurphy523]

Not only this cadenza, but this entire performance with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra will become a "classic performance" of this Paganini Concerto.

[@adambe1126]

Those harmonics are from a different world. I'm speechless

[@fredlifsitz7411]

So pure and fresh. Classic and no extraneous noise or movement. Augustin Is spectacular.

[@sfsphil]

High praise, coming from another very gifted professional violinist.

[@Ciaccona255]

1:28 the sweetest moment. Makes me smile every time ❣️

[@triss1144]

Augustin ist meiner Meinung nach eine riesen Inspiration für jeden Musiker da draußen. Ich hatte die Ehre ihn zwei Tage hintereinander sehen zu können, in der Kölner Philharmonie. Ich liebe klassische Musik, aber er hat mich besonders berührt. Als ich seine Leidenschaft gesehen habe, musste ich an mich als kleines Kind und meinen Geigenlehrer denken, als ich mit 9 angefangen habe Geige zu spielen, leider habe ich nach einer sehr kurzen Zeit wieder aufgehört. Jetzt fange ich aber wieder an, danke Augustin!♥️

[@violinvitality]

Wie schön dass sie wieder zur Geige gefunden haben! 😊

[@triss1144]

@@violinvitality ja hat unfassbar lange gedauert! Aber ich bin motiviert dabei.☺️

[@koopalovetoast2409]

Was hat er in Köln gespielt und wann warst du dort? Ich habe ihn auch in Köln gesehen und deswegen angefangen Geige zu spielen.

[@SinanAkkoyun]

Oh my GOSH THOSE HARMONIC PASSAGES????? Augustin, you are truly the gods fiddler of our time...

[@micaelabonetti949]

Festival of cadenzas 🎻! Festival of musicality ❤️ Grazie, Augustin 🙏

[@christophe2570]

It fits in so well you would never know otherwise and perfectly executed.

Tout est maîtrisé, chaque vibrato,... pas de hasard, pas de place à la chance... justesse + que parfaite... sonorité dans l'aigu incroyable...

[@montanasea1957]

Je m'émerveille à chaque fois, merci pour tant d'émotions et d'intelligence. Il m'aura fallu pas mal d'années avant de retrouver ces frissons, et puis vous êtes là...enfin...🥰

[@tfh5575]

i literally love this man omgggg he’s a genius and a legend

[@teckyify]

Madness, just madness. Chapeau.

[@yasvan5066]

Speechless

[@mataso_br]

i loved it, it seams you like to put some parts of the orchestral tutti in your cadenzas and I think this is very creative and unique on your part, also having taken a more musical path in the cadenza of this concerto as opposed to sauret's cadenza was a genius idea

[@Marcordasviolinos]

perfect...

[@shin-i-chikozima]

The sound of his wonderful performance is gold

[@vai160]

My favorite of Augustin's cadenzas! 💚

[@phoebea]

Excellent as usual, maestro! Your bow control is absolute. I still can't quite wrap my head around the double-stop harmonics.

[@Экскурсовод15й]

Непревзойденно!!! 👏👏👏

[@jordanjohnson1195]

Augustin is inhumanely amazing👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@mariatartini1146]

BREATHTAKING!

[@durban55]

Hadelich’s playing leaves me inspired. No words for this masterful performance.

[@claraartnow6645]

Beautiful!

[@tacotuc8553]

So good

[@Marcordasviolinos]

o melhor violinista!!!

[@tredyki]

Sem sombras de duvidas meu irmão. A musicalidade é incrivel. Um Gênio.

[@szuksztul1]

I've been to his concert (Szymanowski concerto), and what stunned me, he didn't check a single note before playing - and of course ideally in tune all the piece !!!

[@ynot5478]

This is fantastic! I just watched the video of the entire captivating performance yesterday so to hear this again is such a treat.

[@vartolomei55]

Grazie, Augustin !

[@littlecharlottelearnstoplay]

Thanks for your wonderful playing.

[@Надежда-е1с8й]

Brilliant!!!

[@justusvm355]

This has such a great balance between musicality and virtuosity! Sauret's cadenza is a bit all over the place in my humble opinion...

[@davidlicea9192]

Wow !!!

[@SinanAkkoyun]

Truly fascinating, like shadows of each musical idea of the whole concerto, almost like what emerges from activating your diffusional state of mind like the things you hear in your inner ear while showering Achieving this melodical structure and "umstructure" is what art really is, well done!

[@nilbadia2936]

that was crazy good

[@Maskedgamer9909]

The lady behind him has the most dead stare and doesn't move while the guy to the right looks like he's rolling his eyes every 10 seconds

[@Dani-nl5eu]

Lovely 🤩

[@francescovidics]

Ti voglio bene Augustin

[@raduradu2015]

Great!!!

[@basicallybored4962]

1:00 lmao the guy in the background's eyes re like ➡⬅➡

[@seoyoonhp388]

Wunderschön😍💚

[@anahitxachatryan1691]

Я безумно рада что этот талантливый музыкант приезжает в Армению и мы сможем наслаждаться его игрой👍👍👍

[@Violinist265]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Michael-Oh]

Is the full performance anywhere?? Its amazing!!

[@kevinvanhove5834]

Yes on KZbin

[@teoleonov]

dear Augustin, is something ausgezrichnet!

[@adabarda203]

I have a question: is this cadenza available for public playing? Im currently playing Paganini's concerto and the thing I love about this cadenza is its musicality and some excerpts from other Cappriccios, truly a masterpiece I must say.

[@lpiele]

Augustin posts his cadenzas on his website: augustinhadelich.com

[@chuckcornelius194]

not crazy about his cadenza generally, but i like the broken sixths part at 2:21. really cool. if i was writing my own, i'd probably incorporate that part. or maybe merge it into the Sauret somewhere.

[@antonioluquelorenzo5604]

the artificial harmonics part is insane 😱

[@heinzmaraun4711]

❤❤❤❤😂

[@TheGuyCalledX]

2:51 cheeky pizz

[@radionbrumar121]

0:18 Це щось дуже красиве , мабуть музика не Паганіні.😂😅

[@MaikelFolloñieryFolloñiery]

😂dear great violinist : that seem most Paganini and A.Hadelich. Next can be best if you hear Paganini Souret Ricci. just number of notes and tecnich , please ...😅❤

[@theforeverpuddle8754]

Wow!
