Alina Ibragimova: viool

[@l.henriquef4033]

The best version!

[@peterbremer5387]

Best e minor concerto performance I ever heard, wonderful

[@yiru7817]

Saw Alina played this piece in Toronto with TSO last week, and my ears were caught from the first sound she played - so beautiful and passionate. Being sitting at the front rows, it was so enjoyable to watch her performance and it also made this piece become the first violin concerto I fell for. I was a opera only lover but she showed me how vivid and how much emotion you can bring into music.

[@vintagegoldenage]

she's one of my favorite violinists!

[@bobmagnetti2091]

My favorite Mendelssohn violin concerto. Alina is incredible!

[@l.hfreitas9624]

The best performance of Mendelssohn

[@vintagegoldenage]

agreed, her sound is oustanding

[@lunarlight3131]

still stands as the best yup

[@ChameleonsFan]

Finally a violinist who has something new and exciting to tell about Mendelssohn! Bravo, Alina!

[@RobWickline]

I saw her perform Mozart's 4th Violin Concerto this past weekend with the Philadelphia Orchestra, and I was absolutely blown away! She is the most expressive violinist I've ever heard. I'm only sad because there is no recording of her playing the Mozart concerto I saw. I want so badly to hear her play it again. No other recording I can find matches up to it.

イブラギモヴァは、わたしの大好きなヴァイオリニスト。色香溢れる情緒ある音には惚れ惚れする。現代的な斬新さと（ロマン主義に堕ちることのない）豊かなロマンの華の両立は、現代最高のメンデルスゾーンの名演と言える。ライブでは１０回ほど聴いたが、いつも充実の演奏で、感動。いつか日本でこの曲を聴きたいーノット・東響との組み合わせを期待する。

[@gordonfiddle]

everthing she plays she seems to make you listen to it with fresh ears

[@arcadia4284]

i love her playing as we are musicians!!we are always inspired by her!

[@vintagegoldenage]

absolutely!

[@lunarlight3131]

our musicianship is top priority.

[@marcusalessandrini3642]

I saw Alina Perform the Sibelius Concert last weekend with WASO - absolutely amazing!!!!!! Alina comes out humbly on to the stage almost diminutive until the music starts then she plays with such passion - truly alive through the music. This was no easy feat given the large powerful orchestra could have drowned her out - well done to her - she held her own!!!!!!

[@999scarpia]

I was there too. She is phenomenal

[@MrIbgrant]

A superb performance all round. her playing takes me back to David Oistrakh playing this on my parents' records. Beautiful!!!

[@goblinstrollswitches]

god this performance is so moving.

[@albertbuss8657]

Alina Ibragimova est l'une des meilleures interprètes actuelles . Elle respecte les partitions comme Mendelssohn où elle est une rare à commencer en tirant l'archet , ou dans les partitas de Bach . Une sonorité magnifique et une technique d'une sûreté impressionnante !

[@kranichauswolfsburg705]

Vous avez totalement raison 👌🎻

[@mustaphasabli1985]

i wish to see her solo performance again in singapore. one of the best violinist .

[@yomkrzych]

Amazing performance and artist!!!

[@outronome]

Yes, both are beautiful.

[@tentacle1984]

This is a fine example of an orchestra that listens to each other, it turns a rehearsal into a performance and an amazing one at that!

[@montoya_music]

its incredible the strength,digs into the violin!

[@DAIMONCHAN100]

ＮＨＫテレビで紹介された彼女の一部分の演奏を聴いてyoutubeですぐ検索。聴き慣れたこの曲、彼女のおかげで感動しました。思わず引きずり込まれてしまう演奏、オーケストラも引きずり込まれているようです。彼女の演奏をすべて聴いてみたいです。

[@jimyoung9262]

This is fantastic. My goodness can she play!!! Great job by Herreweghe and the orchestra as well.

[@jimyoung9262]

The coughing is well recorded too!

[@lunarlight3131]

As always they never disappoint.

[@claudiaschurr5639]

Saludos desde Chile a la violinista Alina Ibragimova, hermosa mujer, formidable interpretacion

[@mirdominique]

J'ai écouté de morceau de Mendelssohn des dizaines de fois. Toujours le même plaisir. J'écoute aussi Avro Klassiek sur Internet. Merci pour ces bons moments de grande musique.

[@notaire2]

Echt wunderschöne Aufführung dieses anspruchsvollen Meisterwerks mit höchster Technik und angeborener Lyrik der Solistin! Der Dirigent leitet das ganze Orchester mit relativ schnellen Tempi und gut kontrollierter Dynamik.

[@qdrtrg]

Thanks!

[@claudiaschurr5639]

i know alina very well!!!!She plays so wondefly!!!!

[@simplyswimming]

She was sensational with the TSO and Sibelius again tonight. She and Marko Letonja nailed it, Followed by sublime Bach.

[@MrFpam]

No error! Very fine cadenza!

[@limingzhang8532]

[@notaire2]

Ibragimova spielt die Geige sehr schön mit höchster Technik. Herreweghe dirigiert das Orchester sehr künstlerisch mit angemessenen Tempi. Die ganze Aufführung ist echt wunderschön!

[@yisachar85]

Excellent performance

[@nickyork8901]

[@margaritamaslennikova1262]

BRAVO ALINA!!!YOU ARE THE BEST❤

[@MRMOTIVATR]

BRAVURA PERFORMANCE!

[@antonymichiru]

PERFECT !

[@nmutchie]

love love love

[@sybedijkstra1]

'raging youngster races on through Mendelssohn' one could say, in part. Very passionate -which is indeed a quality! I was at the concert and wasn't very much touched and warmed by her racing on in serveral passages. But mine and any opinion aside, it is a very good thing that any concert can be interpreted and played in countless ways and so can speak to many.

[@Jeannettebogado]

Perfect!

[@marietje1949]

prachtig, hier op Tenerife er erg van genoten!

[@dhoulkarnain]

Splendid.

[@jpmozart1]

SPLENDID!

[@user-wu1my4nk6g]

濃やかな表現で音楽に没入するイブラギモヴァ。奏者とヴァイオリンの一体感が深い感動を生む。イブラギモヴァの主観性の豊穣は、恐るべきもの！　過去の名演が色あせてしまいそう。

Estupenda interpretación de Alina Ibragimova. Con una gran sensibilidad y técnica. Reconozco que no la había escuchado y me gustó. La orquesta impecable.

[@giobannearanmena5000]

Alina! perfecta. Su violín, de voz potente. Preciso y precioso en su cantar. Alina Ibraginova y su hermoso violín , un dúo se de gran belleza artística.

[@gastrsk]

연주도 잘하고 시각적으로도 즐겁고 헤레베헤 반주도 좋네

[@MrFpam]

I just checked the score while watching and listening. She plays exactly what is there, not missing anything! She does speed up suddenly!

[@marcelobourdieu231]

grandioso

[@jorgebarbosa8682]

Que maravilha!!!! Que beleza!!!!!

[@redbrian3655]

Thank you allowing me to have my own opinion. I have conducted and performed the Mendelssohn several times during my life. You may note what you will. I love all music. What I categorize is simply a YT Channel.

[@robynsalain]

un archet enchanteur,admiration profonde

[@claudiaschurr5639]

wondeful piece of music

[@ssoojj1]

La violinista principal lo hace con mucha pasión.........excelente¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[@CENTERONE700]

this performance is tantamoutn to that of Janine jansen when it comes to power and individuality...so briliant

[@user-td3rk4qh9u]

Good

[@ihno45]

e-klein, lol, how cute. Thanks for the upload, fantastic piece, but now I've got to listen...

[@dirkhoekstra727]

Someone should choreograph a ballet for this music.

[@Merestrubes1]

hmm true! Thank you!! :)

[@MySonyVegas]

Hm.. different from what I have heard before. Mendelssohn is God to me. so this performance also is.. Actually I love it very much.. Yes, thanks to those who uploaded this, the earth (the world) would have been the wrong place to stop, without this.

[@katbullar]

e-klein is soooo süß :-D

[@redbrian3655]

I totally agree with your assessment, which was not negative as much as it was honest. Your sentiments were mine exactly. BRIAN

[@SketchMeyer]

sorry to tell you but this is one of the most corect and soul touching performances of this piece. You should revise not your opinions, but the way you understand classical music. Thank you:)

[@RuBiCiTaLoVe]

I fell in love with Alina :3 Me enamoré de Alina :)

[@tts80]

I stand corrected after looking at the score and playing it through with her. Though that doesn't change my opinion that the sudden change in tempo has a different impact to how the cadenza sound to me.

[@jimyoung9262]

00:06 Allegro molto appassionato 12:04 Andante 18:49 Allegretto non tropo

[@perpermunn]

うつくしい～

[@MrFpam]

Having admited to your mistake you went on to say that you thin k there are better ways to express individuality than abrupt tempo change. The tempo change was not abrupt it was a slight acceleration in a cadenza, designed to display virtuosity. If you read about Mendelssohn's own performances and listen to more of his music you will learn that he enjoyed fast vivacious performances. Alina is one of the best young violinists, known for her lively temparament.

[@ihno45]

Ich get soo neidisch now!

[@zacktonature]

Much like Helene Grimaud is my favorite pianist, Alina Ibragimova is my favorite violinist =D

[@kranichauswolfsburg705]

Me too 👌

[@tts80]

I have previously admit that I have made a mistake in saying she skipped a few bars. I am learning by trying to see what she is doing differently. A healthy discussion would definitely help, Remember everyone start off being ignorant at some point. We are learn by questioning things, exploring, experimenting. Feel free to ignore my comment if you have nothing else specific about this recording to add.

[@tts80]

Thanks for your comment. Mind if I ask if you are know the violinist at a personal level? While I did admit I made a mistake in my comment, your response suggest you simply don't accept that others could have an opinion about her playing. Personally, I think there are better ways to express individuality then abrupt tempo change. To be able to identify things that I like or not like about a playing is my way of learning.

[@MrFpam]

Of course you can have an opinion, but if it is based on ignorance it is not very useful. She is doing much more than just changing the tempo, and as I pointed out it is a cadenza and a live performance where anything can happen. Look, listen and learn, but don't make silly comments!

[@LUMADY1]

algo de mui bueno de verdade....

[@MrFpam]

Everybody plays it slightly differently. That is the whole idea with a cadenza!

[@violinoamore]

A bit hysterical beginning ...

[@AnFilioctBoct]

Hi Nora. Here is some music.Yes both of our siblings(this side of the pond) are nine cents short of a dime.I will leave it at that.Seamus.

[@VenomOfTheTruth]

I agree with you. She is amazing. I bought her album but performances are different. Did they release an album for this performance?

[@MrFpam]

You are of course entitled to your opinion, but there are others who play faster. The first movement is Allegro molto appassianato - Presto and the finale is Allegro molto vivace. Both of these indicate fast speeds!

[@MrFpam]

Her playing is certainly not superficial, quite the contrary, it is very expressive. You need to make some allowances for the quality of the recording. I couldn't see any evidence of her rushing, there are many passages where she slows down and others where she correctly picks up speed. It is after all a virtuoso concerto! You will find others, such as Heifetz, who play faster.

[@ProLowBird]

8:12 You are welcome.

[@abelwang3255]

很棒的演奏,不知該演奏家是誰,可否提供名字,謝謝!

[@tts80]

Or maybe she returned to the original tempo at that spot which was different to how most people would, thereby giving the impression the section was shorter...

[@MrFpam]

As you are still learning maybe you should be a little more careful with your comments (such as suggesting that she skipped a few bars) or preferably just enjoy the performance and learn from it.

[@tts80]

I understand everyone plays differently (learning the violin myself), but as an audience to point out what she is doing differently and how it affects me as the audience. Not saying what she is doing is right or wrong as it's all subjective to how one feels when listening.
