Leonid Kogan - Bach - Chaconne - Live - Japan - 1958

[@morierayu]

Thank you for choosing this video to upload. I am a Japanese. It is interesting that there were a lot of musicians visited Japan from the USSR between the late 1950s and 1980s, even thoughMost of these years, Japan considered the USSR as an opponent. I was born in 1959, and Leonid Kogan has been one of my favorite violinists for over 50 years. This version sounds a little bit more emotional among other Chaconne performances (:

Thank you for posting this. I came across a recording of some Beathoven trlos from about the same period of time it has been one of my favorite recordings since I found it in a thrift store. Leonid Kogan certainly has a cry in his playing. This was wonderful to find . I just played it for my mom who recently had a bad stroke but I believe she heard this.

Unfortunate that the D major section was cut out, but this performance is incredible. Thanks for uploading.

[@A.C.M.C.]

[@alessandrovaccari782]

Top of fhe Violin Art!!!!🎵🎶🎻😁

[@yurayeghyan197]

Just look closely,he wanted to play D major chord,but they cut it

[@Disasterbrew]

Dislike. Kogan is a giant among men, but whoever chose to cut the D major section needs to spend time in prison.

[@A.C.M.C.]

So agree , its a huge pity there is no middle section of Chaconne :((

[@CavalazziViolinist]

Anyone found a full recording? I couldn't believe it when it skipped!

[@robertczebotar7025]

Maybe due to some technical problems with this aged recording......

[@sergiox51]

At least we can find the complete record of the audio version on youtube

[@ФилиппОстапенко-м4й]

Суетливо и весьма поверхностно ....

[@darkdolphin1386]

А мне не нравится как он играет Чокону. Есть малоизвестные исполнители, которые играют это намного интереснее.

[@francodegrandis7531]

Lei lo ha sentito dal vivo? kogan come gilels avevano il suono due volte più grande di molti altri,cosa che nelle registrazioni anche live non si notano! Le piccole differenze di volume in teatro erano maggiori rispetto alle riprese di microfoni che spesso tendono ad appiattire le dinamiche

Most ladies did live longer
