Beautiful playing. E Minor and d Minor are my favorite keys, and she sounded great with both of those Mendelssohn Concertos.

The Concerto for Violin No. 1 in D minor was composed by Felix Mendelssohn during his teenage years. This Violin Concerto draws on Classical-era models such as Mozart, but above all it is influenced by French innovations in violin writing developed in Mendelssohn’s own time, and fully exploits the evolving techniques of new virtuosos. Mendelssohn was considered by many of his time to be a prodigy comparable to the young Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Besides being a brilliant piano virtuoso, his composition took a firm step forward in musical development. In the period when this concerto was composed, Mendelssohn already has twelve symphonies for strings in his repertoire but he wrote also a trio for strings, a violin and piano sonata and two piano sonatas then other pieces. In this composition « Allegro molto », the struggle between the soloist, whose firmness of line does not exclude tenderness or entreaty, and an orchestra in threatening and stormy unisons, constantly revives the interest of the discourse, whose tension does not knows no relaxation. For those who absolutely want to find Mozart in Mendelssohn, the « Andante » which follows this somewhat hectic first movement will bring intense satisfaction. Peaceful and luminous, this page with dreamy lyricism, on edge, remains faithful to the demands of clarity and balance of the classical tradition. It is the memory of Haydn which comes to invite itself in the last movement, whose thematic elaboration is based on a melody of undoubtedly popular essence. Brilliant page, removed, of a rhythmic alacrity which invites to the dance, this final « Allegro » nevertheless remains more ambiguous than a superficial approach might suggest, the shadows that presided over the first movement, and the waking dream which was fogging up the second, passes finally succinctly. For all this, interpretation is here in a perfect finesse without heaviness or pose, and which will never prevail far from here. *Lucien*

とても素晴らしいメンデルスゾーン、ユジンさんとOESのマッチング、うっとり来ちゃいました。管弦楽ってやっぱり美しい。 ただし、音響面はライブで聴いていた時にもちょっと気になりました。おそらくチェンバホールの音響設計が固く出来ているのではないかと感じでした。音が木に染み渡るというより、はねのけるような構造なんでしょうね、観客が厚着している冬になれば、また違う反響になるように思います。

高橋さん。あなたのコメントにありがとうございます。現場で直接演奏を観覧しましたか。さらに嬉しいです。芸術の殿堂チェムボホルの音響に対する指摘に共感します。一つ付け加えると、殿堂のチェムボホルは天井に乗って流れる音の比率が最も大きいです。そのような理由で、単に音楽を鑑賞するには2階の後ろが一番好きです。 演奏者の立場では、舞台の上でモニタリングするのに本当にいい場所でもあります。高橋さんがこのビデオが実況の演奏よりも劣ると思われる理由は、おそらくも殿堂の録音システムの未熟さのためではないか慎重に推測します。殿堂の全般的な録音システムは立派なホールのアコースティックを十分に抱え込むことができています。 芸術の殿堂の顧客であるOESの立場でも、これはいつも満足できないことです。
