Ligeti: Violin Concerto / Kopatchinskaja · Rattle · Berliner Philharmoniker

[@Turboy65]

You don't have to be crazy to play the violin solo, but it certainly helps.

[@ViostarSplash]

MAD TRUTH XD

[@Janana_]

🤣

[@TheGotoGeek]

Except Ligeti. You have to be crazy to play Ligeti.

[@yehiecho9591]

Such a perfect example of Organized Chaos. The music sounds crazy and, at the same time, just right. This was such an interesting piece

[@thomasriishojgaard5677]

Theres definitely been a time when I just got frustrated practicing and accidentally played two flawless bars of Ligeti. Im quite proud of myself for that.

[@hakunaseitata2880]

I was there and together with Mahlers first Symphony, it was a live-changing moment. At that evening i decided to study music (Bassoon)...

[@Scriabin_fan]

I remember the first time I listened to this I absolutely hated it as I was just dipping my toes into the avant-garde aesthetic. Now that I can't actually somewhat understand what's going on, I absolutely love it. And I must say that Ms. Kopatchinskaja is the greatest interpreter of avant-garde music I've ever heard. She's amazing.

[@the1831]

What do u understand there? It isnt even a music. It sounds so ugly and jingy.

[@cjames0723]

Freshest and most innovative musician to hit classical music in years. She was made for Ligeti.

[@gmtoomey]

There's more genius than insanity. Kopatchinskaja is well suited.

[@TariqKhan-np2wx]

I could not agree with you more. She is a musical genius with so much charisma .

This is better than Ligeti's own cadenza. Wonderful.

[@MaemiNoYume]

now that I saw your comment, yes

[@williamrobertson797]

YES! And Sibelius's violin concerto!! First movement at 1:58

[@AnAverageItalian]

Yeah, this cadenza was actually written by the violinist, so it's full of quotes from other pieces. Really cool nonetheless!

[@leonardoiglesias2394]

Best violinist in 20th and 21th century. Forget Heifetz, Oistrakh, Szeryng, Zukerman, Perlman, Mutter, Zimmermann, Kavakos and Fischer. They were and are all very good violinists but she is the only violin genius in musical history. Bravissima, Patricia!

[@nathanielsattler1382]

My current viola teacher played in the orchestra for this with the New World Symphony and says it's probably the most difficult piece he's ever played. Just being in the orchestra for a crazy and Avant-Garde concerto like this even just once is my absolute dream.

[@llary]

@@jimp4170 what do you specifically enjoy in this music? I am always open to a new angle on something.

[@emilelaurent]

​ llary This is a cadenza, it cannot be understood without the concerto, because its full of quotes, also the sung part is a quote. Until end of march you can still get a month of free admission the Berlin Philharmonic Digital Concert Hall with the Code BERLINPHIL. With this you could watch the whole concerto and also Kopatchinskaja playing concertos by Eötvös and by Schönberg as well as Schönberg's "Pierrot lunaire". Kopatchinskaja has made an acclaimed recording of the Ligeti for NAIVE, which won the »ECHO Klassik«, the »Gramophone Classical Music Award«, the »Gramophone Record Of The Year Award« 2013, the »International Classical Music Award 2014« and was nominated for a Grammy.

[@zackl7467]

@@llary Mostly the great harmonies, in the second and third movements.

[@codascheuer8426]

I enjoy it because it’s funny. I just get a kick out of it, not because I’m trying to sound intellectual. This is what I love about Ligeti compared to other avant garde composers. He doesn’t take his shit seriously, and his music offers a sense of charm and humor. I don’t feel bad for laughing at his music, because I know that’s what he intended.
