My wife and I saw Ray Chen play this work last night with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. A dazzling performance!

Sounds like a fun experience! I was at the concert of this recording in Stockholm. It is indeed very entertaining to see Ray Chen perform!

[@duncanblue6698]

I was there too! The start of the second concerto really stuck out for me.

[@briananderson8428]

WoW! This conductor, orchestra, and Ray Chen make a fabulous triumvirate!

[@Raffael-Tausend]

These rising horn lines are the most beautiful thing!

Breathtaking. If the Sith Lord was a violinist, would play like that.

[@user-wp9tb3qd4s]

better than the old version

[@user-xf1rr9iv7h]

How is Ray's shoulder rest called?

[@dannyboy2267]

I don't remember that, I'm afraid. I recall Chen mentioning it in one of his livestreams during lock down.

[@Violin_ey]

i think is something call G shoulder rest ultralight, cant remember

[@DerLiesl]

G-Model ultra light. $199, it's a glue on SR with adhesive that supposedly does not harm the varnish. It can be found at Giora Schmidt's website.

Dear Mr. Korngold, Ray Chen!...just my thoughts about the legends of violin...itzhak perlman, David oistrak, Josef hassid and Nathan milstein mastered the art of sound. They don't play "clean," they play "clear." Today I learned to play "clear", by watching and listening to them all day long for 10 years. Just my humble advice, it has something to do with the shoulders...good luck and Godspeed!!!

The guy truly ruined Waltzing Matilda, a Jazz musicians would do the same.
