[@hpux4878]

absolutely fine performance

[@ariannalawniczak27]

When I listen to music like this I don't ever want it to stop. Its like my soul wants to dance with the song. I love music so much

[@cristhian0333]

this feels like iam dancing with clouds....

[@bobby78151]

All the melody is in her heart and mind that goes into her fingers------.

[@messiahahmed8710]

This is an INCREDIBLE Mendelssohn......... so talented

[@rickliu1074]

Love it! Listening to the violin and piano version is really educational. I’m able to listen the violin in more details., to catch the subtle modifications of fingerings and bowings compared to the score I have. Both the violinist and pianist played with precision and beauty. . Personally I think sometimes the violin could hold back a bit when piano was leading. As an audience I would love to listen to the piano playing the introduction without omission . I will watch the his performance many times.

[@user-mi5up6zz8w]

her playing let me deep in,most feelings,others can not

[@lamhoichan3084]

能听到你的精采演奏，是人生最高的赏受。l Love you。

[@Scriabinfan593]

She’s so cute and funny 😍 and she’s an amazing violinist

[@user-mi5up6zz8w]

i love her!

[@aspicalagopi3476]

Jim's love for the COMPOSITION she is playing shows up her beautiful talent. Only an idiot would think otherwise.

[@cloudydays6732]

Amazing 😍

[@Gurmeetsingh-uq9gb]

[@user-wr3xi5gi9z]

absolute violinist!!!!!!!

[@jaschenski]

Very well executed

[@markxu6909]

Great.

[@haroldlee4230]

Bravo!!!

[@kyung6040]

송지원씨의 멘델스존 너무 잘 들었습니다. 참 밝고 섬세하며 여리단 생각이 드는데... 찰지고 자기다운 그러면서도 자신있는 연주 같습니다.^^ 제 바이올린 연주가 아마 송지원씨에 가장 흡사할 거 같아 자세히 보게 됩니다. 송지원씨 좋은 음악가입니다^^

[@kevin-jg1pt]

我喜欢她的脸，看起来亲切美丽

[@calcad24]

wow :)

[@MrStraciatella]

en chino, en inglés, en castellano: maravilloso

[@user-ci2gj2ub5z]

와아.........와아 와아

[@KM-px8cs]

Not that her bridge was slightly sideways.

[@inraid]

auperb!

[@user-wl5jy3oc1d]

厉害😄

[@roylin3490]

is that a pencil mark on the high e?

[@hermionegranger5084]

yea i noticed that too- i love her playing tho

[@hongsigghim4183]

오케스트라 없이 피아노 반주로 들으니까 색다르네요.... 오 굿굿..정말 다른데

[@angel68cello]

도리어 그게 더 멘델스존에 어울리는듯도 하네요 아무튼 너무 멋진 연주에요!!!

La filmación hubiera estado mejor enfocando más el violín y con menos movimiento . Hermoso como toca

[@whitecloud113]

[@zhongchen7430]

拉得太美了，看样子吕世清还需要努力才能赶上啊！

[@lotusbuds2000]

great violinist !! but a little too aggressive for mendelssohn, IMHO

[@snickydoodle4744]

ur not wrong, it shld b faster and gentler imo, and maybe no need to crash the diminished 7th octaves either LOL

[@zhichengzhao5907]

agree

[@miaseo3227]

But the interpretation for the third movement was very refreshing! Was different from others and sounded great. I agree though, little bit on the aggressive side.

[@zhongchen7430]

小提琴拉得真美，不做作，比任何中国人都拉得好。

[@zhongchen7430]

厉害了我的国的任何人都比不上你。

[@zhongchen7430]

清饨的演奏，美妙的旋律。听过你的演奏，其他人的小提琴就不要听了，吕思清不怎么样，而且很做作，余丽娜更是老掉牙了。

[@zhongchen7430]

希望经常能听到你的演奏，如果你那个时候不来到美国，现在不会有这样的成就，伟大的美国造就人才。

[@kyung6040]

Which strings does she use?

[@oldgoat5]

evah pirazzi, due to the green windings

[@zhongchen7430]

小提琴拉得真美，没有做作，比任何中国人都拉得好。

[@lilianlovesviolin6436]

小提琴不是中国乐器，为什么中国人一定要做到最好。你对中国人的要求奇高无比，估计您自己也是世外高人？

[@gabriel1chan]

While not a bad performance, not polished enough. For comparison try listen to Boston philharmonic interpretation class on the same piece.

[@miaseo3227]

Its actually quite polished. Its a totally different interpretation though, pretty aggressive but still a great experience.

[@Nobleman999]

Poor ! Listen to Ray Chen's version to compare .

[@sethnovatt1166]

You can say you prefer one to the other, but saying this is "poor" shows that you know nothing and don't appreciate superb musicianship

[@Critsist]

Too loud and reckless

[@miaseo3227]

Instead of reckless, id say aggressive. Her pianos were impeccable.

[@sandrynarachellasander]

Awesome But Mistake 26:45

[@danielhodos6747]

OMG!! 2 fuckin notes were a bit higher in a 30 min.concerto...it's a live performance, She is a human and it is impossible to play without any mistakes. But u can be proud of yourself, cause you could notice that. That means you have 2 ears, so congrats!!!👏
