Very proud and lucky to have been a part of this concert! What an experience to play with such a legend!

[@joefagan9335]

It must have been awesome! I bet the whole orchestra just wanted to hug her!

[@Violintraine]

What a touching performance... We should be glad that despite of her age she still ables to share her gift of music. My Highest RESPECT to Ms. Ida Haendel one of my favorite all-time Violinist! Bravo!!!

[@Apalexpe]

At 83, just speechless. Fly high and serenade us from above dear Ida!

[@otilia1246]

A wonderful interpretation. I love this woman - an amazing musician, admirable! Thank you !

[@dietmarterdenge5864]

My favourite violin player and sorry - she is 90 years, playing more marvelous than a lot of tecnicfreascs- and the tone is so from heart. A Genius on violin for all time. An absolute inspiration ! But...also thx. for the other violinists showing their Performance - just wanna say,- that she ( for me ) lives the violin.

[@patfraser7167]

close your eyes...the beauty and emotional sound comes through loud and clear.

[@JuanMartinexplacerez-mw3we]

Es una ejecución Memorable de la Excelentísima y distinguida Violinista Ida HAENDEL , es una interpretacion con un elevado Nivel Expresivo del Fabuloso Concierto para Violín y Orquesta .

[@paulamccrackin2187]

Her passion to perform regardless of her age only gives a small glimpse at the will of the human spirit. She has a really strong will to still perform and resist criticism and for that, I admire you IDA!!!!!!

[@garysimkins2179]

She is and will always be one of the greats. It saddened me the other day to learn that she passed on July 1st 2020. God bless you Ida. Your passion is unmatched.

[@christopherhogan691]

Just so wonderful..!!!!!. ..... That such gifts can be shared at that age.. Bravissimo!!!

[@jairochaves8916]

She is an Angel!!!!

[@rolandirojo]

Im crying huhu. Rest in Piece tita Ida. I would be glad if you will be my 2nd mom. You're sooo inspiring!

[@joefagan9335]

Dearest Ida. I only just founds out she passed away ☹️. It’s insane to be able to attempt this concerto approaching her 84th birthday. And in places it is so beautiful. And where it’s not perfect, it’s insanely human and emotional. Much love 😍

[@thiinkerca]

Ms Haendel , it is wonderful to her beautiful musicianship and sound remains undiminished with time !!!!

[@shawnchristopherwhite3271]

I love her performance - she is a treasure.

[@wmennisny]

This just fills me with tender emotions! Technique can be learned, taught, and lost as one ages. EMOTION cannot be taught and if one has it never loses it. This is just filled with emotion. Lovely.

[@untflutist]

This is a wonderful performance in so many levels. Ms Haendel is AMAZING and although I am a flutist I am so fortunate to continue to learn and grow as a musician watching her performances and masterclasses. Brava!!!

[@Atento80]

Increíble mujer, musicalidad intacta...!!

[@caversgreen]

Wonderful lady,played with her many times,including possibly the best recording of the Sibelius.

[@신재경-n5m]

와우~이다 핸델. 팔순 중순의 나이일텐데 힘은 조금 떨어졌어도 여전하네요. 젊었을때 늘 정확하고 깔끔한 연주가 맘에들어 좋아합니다. 여전히 활을 켜고 있는 모습을 보니 너무 아름답네요.브라바!

[@r.wagner5409]

Byłem na jej solowym recitalu w Zakopanem , gdy miala 79 lat.Zaczęła od doskonałego 24.Kaprysu.

[@zoyasvechkar1232]

Божественно!

[@LatynaH]

felicitations :) j'admire autant d'energie, une des mes violonistes préférés depuis toujours

[@temenuzhkamilanova]

Inspiration for us all ! Bravo !

[@Randianpole2]

If I'm half her level of functionality and brilliance when I'm 40, I'll consider that a great success. What a remarkable woman.

[@carlosecabezas]

We Love YOU Ida, wonderful performance!!!!

[@sneddley]

Thanks so much for this, brought memories back of the first time I heard Ms Haendel in concert, playing this concerto in Los Angeles in the late 1970's.

[@BrunaNevia]

Great soul !

[@qwertylife1158]

She's human after all..but I can feel how much she loves music and violin, Ida is very brave and gorgeous person. So I respect her. ＼(^o^)／

[@MegaHoangvy]

Bỏrn 1928 . Died 2020 !

[@ClassicalRomance]

Her Strad has a problem as per watching her documentary. That's the same strad she owns until now that gave her problem playing when she was playing in Tokyo.

[@orfe125]

Buravo! Your sound that I know has not changed anything. Surprisingly!

[@umiterzurumlu1226]

Great

[@ivancielias1255]

❤️❤️❤️🎻👏👏👏👏👏🌹🎶🎼🎵🎼🎶🎵 linda, bravo🌹🌹🌹

[@MCHEATH]

Brava

[@100crowns6]

She may be a few years older than 83/84

[@AnnaSavkinaViolin]

Bravo!

[@musicrevolution2353]

Anna Savkina you are beautiful!

[@qwert3569]

This is a pretty poor performance. If this video were audio only and did not mention Ida Haendel as the violinist, it could be passed off as a child playing in a recital. I'm aware that she was once a great violinist, but she isn't anymore, which is completely reasonable considering her age. However, the fact that so many people here are praising this performance really shows how many people don't pay attention to the music itself, only the person playing it. It's quite sad to see.

[@spiked415]

cus she is a legit living legend/ former virtuoso. so old age has let her effected her abilities decline from what they were... its normal. and its lame to be the one to focus on it

[@andrewholland9097]

Her choices of shifts and slides were not those of a child. I understand the point you’re making, but you’re overly dismissive, big time.

[@Jasiek55555]

I'm sorry but this is WAY below her!!! I can see by looking at her that she's not even happy with herself. I don't know… probably just having a bad day because she's capable of so sooo much better than this.

[@aaronmcintyre8239]

I agree not her best performance

[@MCHEATH]

She's nearly 89 in reality when this was recorded. I have access to UK shipping passenger records from 40's and 50"s - numerous entries state her dob as 15/12/1923 - passport check!

[@josephwalker9853]

This orchestra and conductor are a mess. They seem to fight over tempos the whole time, the intonation is a disaster, and it completely lacks clarity. I'm sad that Ida had to suffer it! Her tone is still incomparable!!

[@albertmuller9741]

I love her... but she shouldn't have done that.

[@Bluedog171]

Unfortunate it may be,this performance could be compared to muhammed Ali last fight,should'nt happened.Ida was a brilliant player a few years ago,but this performance leaves her open to unwarranted critisim.That is my view.Maybe a bit sad to see her underperform.Old age always has the upper-hand.

[@saraklein6447]

MrBluedog893 בו

[@1982violinist]

terrible performance....many notes were practically out of tune specially at the beginning. so much so that even the orchestra members were looked uncomfortable accompanying her...... so sorry to say that.......... she is a wonderful virtuoso with a brilliant career behind her but MAY BE IT'S TIME FOR HER TO QUIT.

[@jlim2848]

Arash Davoodi Ms. Haendel giving them life long lesson to all of us. Sure, we can listen to cleanly sharp technically perfect performance from young violinists. But that doesn't mean we all prefer technically perfect performance over everything. Through my experience, music can only mature through age. She has thorough understanding of the piece. If no one wanted to see her playing, why would audience bother to come to her concerts? They still want to hear her playing, and I am one of them. You really gotta listen to her Enescu in recent years. Magnificent.

[@nevim007]

AArash Davoodi Well, she is almost 84 here and others might have been dead or not able to hold urine but she plays octaves, decimes, fast scales etc. yes sometimes out of tune but still there are amazing moments for which it is worth to listen... And the orchestra is WAAAY worse than her btw...

[@ijsselland1]

This is terrible. She should have stopped playing in public many years ago. Clearly there's no one in her immediate surroundings who can tell her this.

[@peace-now]

+ijsselland1 Not "terrible". Can you do better?

[@ijsselland1]

+SugarTomAppleRoger What a clever comment. You must be a genius.

[@sarahdubois2386]

I would have given anything to hear an old Milstein or Heifetz even if they didn't sound good. this is no different- she was a great and people still want to see her play no matter what.

[@DivaDeb1234]

Rude snob

[@philnewton3096]

no no no no
