Chee-Yun - masterclass on Tchaikovsky's violin concerto

[@gregorygibbs9551]

Chee-Yun is such a wonderful teacher. Her brilliance as a musician just increases, as, it seems to me, does her beauty.

[@raoultak]

I think Chee Yun is a born teacher with tremendously good musical ideas. Hope to see her soon as a professor at Juilliard...AND as a great violinist performing all over the world. Chee Yun is a diamond.

[@danielabisenius9858]

Pure example of a great teacher. Productive, honest lesson. You can actually walk off the stage thinking, ok, I learned a lot from this woman today. Ma'am, you are phenomenal. And yes, extremely right about the virtuosity thingy... I always thought that true technique, virtuosity if you will, is in the purity of your sound, and never how fast one can play.

[@ak-rv8rh]

chee-yun is an INCREDIBLE teacher

[@risingpianofire]

Bravo to the student. Not an easy piece at all. Chee Yun has some amazingly good points as always.

[@casseyanzio2568]

wow, what an amazing teacher. so patient, but very clear in direction.

[@viopiano.]

12:10-13:46 Chee Yun Great!

[@ak-rv8rh]

and chee-yun is an INCREDIBLE player

[@SkeletonHands6969]

Nice tips and I know the Tchaikovsky is pretty hard. The amount of accidentals increase the difficulty by 7/10 by dipping into harmonic minor and tritones. I started learning it and it's fun to see the piece hits virtually every violin technique in the books.

[@smileyh888]

Really great tips. I'm sorry I missed the masterclass.

[@frankystrings]

It was like he malfunctioned everytime she told him to slow down.... ERROR: CAN NOT COMPUTE

[@thulevandendam2526]

you are a phenomenal teacher

[@lotusbuds2000]

I love her playing

[@ComposerInUK]

I would love to conduct a performance of this beautiful work with Chee-Lin...! (hint hint)

[@annajeehee]

I agree with her 1000 percent - yay!

[@perfectionismdream]

He was not ready to play this in a masterclass

[@milagritosuwu5062]

Masterclasses is for learn

[@toiletjunpaper]

he was fine i think

[@stijn4687]

Seems like the pianist is enjoying and learning in this master class, more than the student

[@ak-rv8rh]

20:54 what a beautiful analogy

[@GoogleUser-ee8ro]

was student's bow not full length?

[@SamLee-ur7xl]

She taught him to be a better lover of music.

[@violinhunter2]

Isaac Stern used to say "just play it the way you would sing it...."

[@irisce2799]

I didn't know much about Stern until I heard Aaron Rosand's story about him. Didn't seem like a very kind or compassionate man. Power hungry and greedy, from what I read. Dunno if it's true tho

[@irisce2799]

and also, found you again :D

[@violinhunter2]

@@irisce2799 :-)

[@violinhunter2]

@@irisce2799 Those things about Stern are very likely true. Of course, I never met him. More than once, he was said to have destroyed a career. Eugene Fodor comes to mind. Heifetz called Stern a whore. I recall one occasion in which a well-known piano player took a tempo which the conductor did not agree with. The pianist was adamant about sticking to her tempo so, seeing that he had no choice, the conductor had a private conversation about it with the intransigent pianist. He told her in so many words that if she didn't follow his tempo, he could ruin her career. She followed his tempo. (So much happens behind the scenes that the general public is never aware of and probably never will be. Zukerman is also said to be a very arrogant person. The escapades of William Preucil were well-known to many musicians but everyone kept quiet until the scandal exploded. To be fair, these things take place in every profession....)

[@irisce2799]

With all due respect, I believe his technique is not at the level required to play the Tchaikovsky VC yet.

[@annajeehee]

Cause her violin is in the millions - and her bow is 80k to 200k - trust me - am Juilliard alumna on violin but it's the violinist technique that needs to be great - 10 percent is violin bow

[@helmiviolin5674]

Wwaaa thanks for sharingg

[@KADroyale]

No like %80 of sound is bow

[@ak-rv8rh]

he seems a bit nervous and robotic. needs to just let his hair down lmao

[@HenriqueOliveiraBR]

How she can play so well suddenly like in 8:18?!

[@arazaratsyan6478]

Tenacity = Tenacious-ness

[@mrcaciomusico]

hummmmm what are you going to in a like this

[@annajeehee]

Less is more - great comment !

[@clarinetcreampie6129]

Why does her violin sound so much bigger than his?

[@bw2082]

+Clarinet Cream Pie because her violin and bow are worth millions of dollars more than his... not to mention technique

[@DanielHernandez-nl4yt]

+bw2082 and the fact that she is wearing a microphone

[@menusis]

+Clarinet Cream Pie because she had a bow school and experience to play violin, he hasn´t take a look to Zukerman masterclass

[@Barde_Jaune]

+Clarinet Cream Pie Definitely the microphone that is clipped to her top. Most people don't realize how louder she is because of that.

[@kismetcapitan]

additionally, her Ruggieri has a particular sound that has a LOT of projection.

[@franciscogarcia5266]

El piano como las weas

[@winrx]

It was so painful having to listen to this gentleman - can't imagine how Ms. Yun felt.......

[@TencupsGaming]

+winrx what! he's great

[@ViolinfanaticOriginal]

He did a great job. I love watching humans and not robots.

[@kismetcapitan]

this piece really sits on the borderline of unplayable by a human; the original draft that Tchaikovsky wrote WAS physically unplayable, so he grudgingly toned it down.

[@EK-md2jt]

Masterclasses are for LEARNING. If this were a competition I would agree with you. And that he memorizes all of that while being accompanied is just amazing. One can see that he practiced.

[@frankystrings]

It was painful cause he couldn't slow down for the life of him. It was like watching a computer error sign
