Augustin Hadelich plays Ysaÿe Sonata no. 4 LIVE

[@TwelfthRoot2]

This is the best violinist on the planet.

[@TheTucsonJeff]

I would agree with that 100%!!

[@soundsignatures7574]

I think he’s just visiting

Don't forget Midori!😏

Pièrre Torbär makes me wonder.❤️

[@alexsaldarriaga8318]

He is the perfect embodiment of musical artistry and violin virtuosity. Mr Hadelich’s playing transcends words. He is my violinistic ideal. A violinist’s violinist! Thank you, dear sir, for generously sharing your art with the world and your admiring listeners.

[@soundsignatures7574]

whenever I feel life has lost it's sparkle, all I need do is watch Augustin Hadlelich play Ysaÿe and all is right again

[@Mal-sg2du]

I feel that Augustin Handelich was born to play Ysaye. so good 😭

[@TheTucsonJeff]

I never really fully appreciated the music of Mr. Ysaÿe until I heard it played by Mr. Hadelich. This performance is nothing less than mesmerizing. New words need to be invented to more accurately describe the magnitude of Mr. Hadelich's performances. We are so fortunate to be living in an age where we can employ hi-tech audio and video equipment to capture performances such as this, which can be and will be treasured for probably hundreds of years.

[@twagdrewer1296]

His intonation is just beyond! amazing

[@lorapetrova5342]

Augustin, you are a gift from God!

[@dbelden]

The voicing, the intonation, the clarity, the phrasing, the total ease with rubato, the joy he seems to have as he “discovers” the piece while playing it. Just phenomenal. I have quite a few Ysayë recordings that I love, and I’ve worked on most of them myself, but I’ve never heard or imagined it like this.

[@kingsonchang460]

I have a feeling that I will be reborn......after his playing.

[@LinoPrisco]

Stratospheric execution. Everything perfect and wonderful!

[@rubykaufman7410]

Dear Mr. Hadelich, I am a new fan of your glorious violin performances. Just recently saw you perform in Phoenix where you played the Beethoven Violin Concerto , followed by the exquisite encore. I am a ninety-one year old lady who is so happy to have discovered you and your heavenly mastery of the Violin. Continue to be well and wonderful. Ruby Kaufman, Tempe Arizona

Eugène Ysaÿe - Sonata for solo violin no. 4 e minor, dedicated to Fritz Kreisler Allemande (Lento maestoso) 0:00 Sarabande (Quasi lento) 4:38 Finale (Presto ma non troppo) 7:49

[@yayoikotani]

Lieber Herr Hadelich. You are the brilliant and a gift from God. Ysaÿe and you accompany me in my grief and help my soul. Your music Reminds me of Leonardo da Vinci's Saint John the Baptist. Mit bestem Dank.

[@pikkiopillo2689]

Bravissimo. Grazie Maestro. Un collega che ti stima molto....

[@yannitzili8961]

Both earthly and out of this world... Technically superb, very musical, right tempo really! Blessed to have heard him.

[@wendymyers3182]

Only one way to sum up Maestro Hadelich artistry,, Perfect🎻🎻✝️

[@Stringdude86]

This is absolutely stunning. The definitive performance of this sonata. Otherworldly precision, musicality, and the smoothest transitions and phrasing combine for true perfection. Best bow control I’ve ever seen. Bravo!

[@fgorlando]

There are just no words. This is a definitive performance. Wow 😳

[@peterbaxter8151]

I’m back to listen again. This music is performed to perfection. Thank you Mr Hadelich. You have re-inspired my love of the violin.

[@punchaloo]

My favorite recording! The sound convinced me that your bow is twice as long as normal...

[@wendyshell8679]

I had to come and listen to the whole sonata, again, after your virtual concert in Mr. Oundjian’s home. Augustin, please know that there are no words to express our gratitude for all you do for us, through having dedicated your whole life, practically, to this beautiful gift, you so generously give to us, your listening audience.❤️

His pureness in sound and depurated technique is so inspiring. Another violinist that inspires me as well is Hilary Hahn. Their music is just so beautiful.

[@diego.8226]

hohoho, studying orchestration I had to analyze this work. Listened to several versions. This one is just stunning. How well artistically played, this is why music exists! It's not an easy work, there are so many ideas, some of them actual jewels. This man plays all of them. sol fa# mi, so beautiful especially in Sarabande. Even in Finale, ideas are so clear, so beautiful played, perfect technique. Will follow you, congratulations, félicitations and felicitaciones! bravissimo, maestro!

[@josiahyoder647]

Your music is such a blessing and an inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!

[@violinn0006]

He has loyalty and such sensitive music understanding in his playing. His technic level has made him play easy and natural like he is just walking outside. As Saldarriaga said: Violinist's violinist !

[@LeCigareVolant]

There is so much to enjoy here, guess I'll have to hear it again and again :)

[@AmitKumar-wq3bc]

He's nodding his head at the end as if to say "yeah, it's a tough piece, i know". kudos maestro!

[@wendyshell8679]

Amen!

This has brought tears to my eyes. Thank you sir.

[@wendyshell8679]

Baxrok2 I flat out wept, I was so moved. I couldn’t help but feel compassion for him at the end, to see how this piece seemed to utterly exhaust him.

[@Cyrilmc222004]

Out of this world. Thank you so much Augustin, you are by far the best and unrivalled violinist I’ve ever had the good unfortunate to hear. Thank God for KZbin, we are really really lucky to have been able to listen and watch you create this amazing and awesome music 🎶 here in the comfort of our own homes.

Thank you Augustin for your music that touches the soul.

[@Li-yt7zh]

forgot this was live until the very end ;) awesome sounds

[@Scriabin_fan]

Also I love how Ysaÿe’s sonatas sound a like Bach but very dissonant

[@wendyshell8679]

Elijah excellent description!

[@bushyy.5696]

Bruh Bach is dissonant

[@niceguy8935]

Ysaye based his sonatas in Bach movements.

[@wendyshell8679]

Authentic_Bush think the dissonance is more drawn out in Esaÿe-more prominent, perhaps? Go to www.coloradomusicfestival.com, and watch the Augustin’s concert- it’s the third part. He talks about Bach and Esaÿe, in some detail. Very interesting conversation.

[@tmshadow8031]

Elijah I thought I was the only one who thought that! Glad I'm not alone there

[@fanc.5711]

What a warm sound 🥰

[@kakichekakuhncaroletarnec2137]

Breath taking ....

[@wendyshell8679]

VERY pretty piece! It is delightful! The sarabande is LOVELY! You’ve outdone yourself again, Augustin!❤️

[@jidiplaygames1244]

This sonata is lucky to be performed by such an artist

[@Peter28081]

My favorite violinist!!!

[@NickBatinaComposer]

Augustin, your tone is just so otherworldly, wow. I hope one day I could write a piece for you, that sound would be my dreams. Also that faster interpretation is incredible, it connects all the dots and keeps things sounding "humble" with just the right virtuosic edge! Thank you for posting this :)

[@igormijal1]

Thank you for playing 🙏

[@dancornell2841]

That was insane!!!! 🤩

[@lovett003]

Possibly one of my favorite recordings of Ysaye! I am in love with your playing

[@benoramhovachev9069]

Beautiful, May you have lovely 2020 Augustin :)

[@allblack4777]

Thank you for yet another beautiful performance.

[@highpitchvinyl]

9:46-9:49 is probably the cleanest bowing I've ever heard.

[@d4rk_1egend]

Ysaye was a man really inspired by Bach and this sonata (besides obsession sonata) really shows that mainly in the chords, rhythms, and with snappy dotted rhythms with passages of constant non-dotted rhythms, you basically have Bach or at least have a Bach/baroque piece with that baroque dance feel.
