Max Bruch : Violin Concerto No. 1 performed by Gil Shaham

[@22Clearwater]

Gil Shaham is so gracious, the way he looks around at the orchestra in appreciation of their efforts.

[@annemariestein7491]

I just love watching Gil play anything. His joy to be in there is so heartwarming.

[@user-skdkqodkwodkdoeoej]

길샤함 연주 너무 좋고 ㅠㅠ 정명훈 지휘자와 오케스트라와 함께하는 음악에 진심으로 행복해하는 길샤함 얼굴이 보는 사람도 기분좋아짐... 너무 감동적인 음악이야 ㅠㅠ

[@rlwang6882]

I love how happy Gill looked during his playing. His smile was so pure and lovely.

[@DimitriaCosta0]

I simply LOVE his smile at 6:45!! This part, that goes until 8:00, is one of the greatest of all classical music. You can feel Shaham's joy while listening to it. Besides, this performance is stunning. I can't stop listening to it.

[@aaronblackham360]

Yes, it's a delight to watch him simply grin while playing the hardest parts of the piece flawlessly. He has the violin and this piece in his bones.

[@JustFiddler]

to me he is a humble and warm person. matur suksma my hero

[@nualadevlin1121]

A sublime performance. Gil Shaham lives and enjoys every moment . And his enjoyment is infectious. Beautiful clean playing and he is so generous in his acknowkedgement of the conductor and the orchestra. A rare treat. Thank you

[@herbertkronzucker8367]

Gil is a true master of the singing line. The Hebrew word "chaim" applies well - alive in the moment, with an inner smile, showing humility and gratitude, and tapping into forces much greater than ourselves.

[@Babymusic135]

Beautiful music gifted to me with wonderful feeling to 82 years old Los Angeles enjoying lovely violin sounds. Thank you so much for remembering all of lovely music involving with emotional. God bless my lovely beautiful people. Thank you !

[@lydiamacdonald6917]

His constant joy and fun and smile on stage in this performance almost reminds of Mr Rogers :)

[@ceruti1866]

He's bow controll is just stunning...!

[@dkalir]

Gil Shaham is nothing short of fantastic. He makes everything seem so light, flawless. He understand every note of this piece - he once went for three minutes about the opening long note, coming from above - and he creates such a warm, giddy feeling on stage. I love both his accuracy, his exuberance, his showmanship, and his musicality. An overall true master of the craft!

[@teriboyd405]

Look's like Gil is having a good time up there on stage. What a great piece of music. Thank you Max Bruch👍

[@Xerkun]

At the end the concertmaster seems to be excited to have been there. He looks the age of someone who grew up listening to Gil Shaham's albums.

[@Надежда-е1с8й]

Amazing!!! Bravissimo!!!❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏

Je viens de l'écouter pour la énième fois, c'est que du bonheur de la première à la dernière note ❣️Je ne m'en lasse pas ! 🎶❤️🎶🌹✨✨

[@rose_sola]

Magnificent, Bravo Gil shaham! I love how he smiles and stares at the conductor and orchestra during the play. You made my day full of happiniess and joy. Maestro Gil shaham & Myungwhun Chung. Thank you!

[@waterkingdavid]

Indeed. Not many are mentioning Myunwhan Chung but he is also always adeeply satisfying and heartwarming presence. What a treat to have both at once!

[@peziki]

The glory of Bruch, the charm of Shaham. Gives ya goosebumps. Love it!

[@johanweir9848]

This is an absolute treasure on youtube

[@josephahn8788]

He makes playing the violin look easy. Awesome performance!

[@BytomGirl]

Very stressful time for me and this concerto is soothing my soul. Wonderful performance by Gil Shaham.

[@waterkingdavid]

Hope this finds you in better times.

[@CrazyArcher2160]

That's quite an original interpretation! Love how he has fun on the stage!

[@reneschoon8428]

Beautiful, bravo. So I guess one day Max went upstairs and found a box with the most beautiful melodies ever. Couldn't decide which one to put in his violin concerto so he used them all.

[@andrewb9974]

Such am animated soloist. Clearing have a ton of fun! Makes a big difference to not only the audience, but to orchestras members more importantly! Talking personal experience as a cellist, it's invigorating. THIS is why music is fun!

[@annemariestein7491]

this is why Manny Ax is such a favorite with orchestras.

[@jkgou1]

[@unknownchannel3141]

I like the conductor in this one.

[@isaacgonzalezdiaz]

Se siente como van construyendo la obra en el momento presente, el grupo completo. Director y solista dejan de lado el ego. Gracias desde Chile en 2019.

[@mmppeegg]

Excellent

[@judithroque4009]

Exquisite! Everything a violin cocerto should be.

[@miguelrivas9745]

Según varios estudiosos, ésta pieza de Max Bruch es una de las más difíciles del reperatorio clásico por loq que me llama notoriamente la expresión de felicidad del intérprete al lograr el éxito de cada pasaje. Sin duda un intérprete que no solo vive la música sino también se maravilla a si mismo de lograr tal excelencia en una obra de exigencias tan particulares. Felicitaciones al intérprete; nos hace maravillarnos a todos.

[@waterkingdavid]

Interesting. As a deep lover of classical music but not knowledgeable about the players and technical issues always Interesting to here this things. I heard the Tchaikovsky violin concerto also deeply challenging. I'd imagine many pieces are challenging though.. How about the Britten one? Or the Berg?

[@franklinrodriguez3370]

The way Gil plays in this version remember me a little to yehudi menuhin.

[@stuntdouble777]

The conductor looks so chilled.

[@briankatona]

Wonderful performance!

[@heeefairy4169]

Gil Shaham IS A LEGEND !!!!!

[@ggill716]

Bravo. Classy performance.

[@skojis]

Love him so much.❤

[@hansvogel2558]

Fantastique Bravo

[@radiogremar]

Aparte de ser un excelente violinista tiene el aspecto de ser una buena persona, me encanta su cara risueña. Su versión en disco del Concierto de Bruch está considerada como una de las mejores y aquí en este video no podía ser menos.

[@pedropereira5326]

Perfect!

[@notaire2]

Großartige Aufführung dieses romantischen Konzerts mit traumhaft schönem Ton der Solovioline und gut harmonisierten Töne anderer Instrumente. Der zweite Satz klingt fast himmlisch. Der intelligente Maestro dirigiert das ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut phrasierten Tempo mit sorgfältig kontrollierter Dynamik. Echt göttlicher Violinist!

[@TheYeh0730]

[@arteeparatodos]

Ele consegue uma tonalidade cheia do violino. Excelente interpretação

[@arteeparatodos]

Perfeita integração com a música é a orquestra e pelo sorriso gosta e sente prazer em tocar

[@kenccwong418]

Superb

[@LucienMarine]

Music gives meaning to sound, from meaning to sound, is born emotion. The Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor, Op. 26, is admired above all for its lyrical melodies, which were reflected in almost the full range of the instrument. The work was premiered with virtuoso violinist Joseph Joachim as soloist. The piece is not only Bruch's best known, but one of the most frequently performed of all violin concertos. The first movement of the sonata-like work « Prelude: allegro moderato » features the violinist performing impassioned solo passages alternating with a more solidly rhythmic, but sometimes ardent, orchestral voice. The second movement « Adagio » features three sentimental themes, which are explored and developed fairly equal through the solo and orchestral parts. The third movement fiery « Finale: allegro energico » is largely based on a vibrant theme that features a folk dance. The Violin Concerto has become a perennial favorite with audiences, to the detriment of Max Bruch. All my gratitude to the great violinist Gil Shaham for her beautiful execution. *Lucien*

[@kenfisher9818]

Does anybody know the name of the concertmaster?

[@veronicaserrano4044]

Un concierto que permite pasearse por las nubes y sentirse cerca de todos nuestros ángeles

[@radiogremar]

Vuelto a ver y escuchar añado un comentario más. En este video el técnico de sonido podría haberse esmerado en dar más presencia al violín solista, queda en un segundo plano tapado por la orquesta. Por lo demás como dije una interpretación excelente.

Weirdest bowings ever

[@김민수-s7b7n]

thats your mannerism

[@endlessadventure541]

One of the easiest concerto. He's played it so many times in public (since he was 6 years old) I am surprised he can still stand it. Even more surprised he has the nerve to play something so easy and call it a concert. And he gets payed for playing it!

[@spasskyfan5389]

Sorry, constant dumb smiling is a complete distraction. (Communicate thru the music man, which contains various emotional messages, not one Steve Martin smiley one.) Else, why not go further & add eyewinks too!? (Because it's completely f-ing distracting & inappropriate, that's why!)

[@Ishsa]

He's having fun!

[@deadstone3807]

Critic the man when u are of the same caliber or better than him when u play.

[@ben-zionahava1676]

Maybe he's just happy to be alive and enjoying what he loves.

[@SarahChan]

That's a fair critique to give to an amateur. But he's a world class violinist. Can you seriously say a little smiling detracts from his world class playing? At his level those small things don't make a difference.
