I love the way he plays. No distracting theatrics. All emotion is expressed through the violin and comes out sounding beautifully.

Five stars ! Absolutely beautiful. The Mozart composition is of course devine - his best violin concerto, but this performance - in all it's simplicity, without the orchesta, is too !

[@tomfroekjaer]

Absolutely beautiful performance of one of the most moving violine concertoes ever composed - five stars !

[@withmozart]

This is most beautiful work I ever seen... Bravo~`` Mozart are smile at you from the heaven... Mozart say Ancore~`` May God bless you forever+

[@lucillebourdages9167]

sensibilité, performance parfaite. Musique sublime !

[@szormokus]

I think this was exactly what Mozart had in mind when he composed this piece. Demirev plays it with feeling and a very beautyfull tone. His vibrato is exelent. No show of... only pure music. Breathtaking. Bravo.

[@doppeldeluxe]

A warm, broad sound and a discreet accompaniment. Just wonderful!

[@OldGrumpyGuy]

The phrasing and tempo in this performance is just perfect. I have used a part of it for one of my videos on "Mozart's Greatest Hits"

[@wombat9617]

Beautiful! The piano backing sounds so good with the violin. I recorded this some years ago, including the cough at the beginning, and have often played it. Recently tried to check on Shazam who was playing and what the piece was. It did not recognise this version. Glad I found it again

[@RIORIO90210]

Beautiful, lovely! Great phrasings! Very touching...

[@movcharov]

Wonderfully done! I love the cadenza and the finale! Vessko, bravo! (Vessselin Demirev works as a concertmaster at Plano, he is originally from Varna, Bulgaria. I am so proud to know him since he was 4 - we were in the same violin class - his first violin teacher was Mrs. Anna Kovatcheva in Varna Music School.)

Great and very sensitive playing at the utmost toplevel. We are so lucky to have Vesselin as a splendid concertmaster/leader in Aalborg Symphony Orchestra Denmark..

[@ita2255]

What Great Adagio performance! Thank you very much.

[@elijaguy]

Maestro Demirev belongs to new generation of musicians who find the path to the core and essence, after many many years, 70 or so, in which so many musicians, some of them much hailed, lost it. Sheer pleasure!

[@starbucksrebel]

[@OldGrumpyGuy]

This is played with tremendous feeling

[@connorV1]

Outstanding performance!!

[@yeleiah52]

es tan hermoso!!

[@Killer390]

@Jan2ek it is a Violin Concerto. The piano is supposed to simulate the orchestra, which is why it is called piano accompaniment. The orchestra, and thus the piano, follows the soloist, not the other way around.

[@glaucoma888]

Einstein said this movement was sent from Heaven, I agree

[@ernestosalazarbrione]

SIMPLEMENTE SUBLIME, MAGISTRAL

[@CHARLIETWW]

A bit slow but great interpretation! Love it!! It's an incredibly good duo!!! Deeply moved by it. Should I cry?

[@gimichi]

[@speedphreak831]

Domo Arigato, Mr. Cogato!!

[@vilniusviolin]

So sincere!

[@mariadelloreficemusic]

@dereczynski it is vesselin demirev. it says it in the definition

[@FranRodriguezguitar]

very good!

[@bensjaca]

@musicluvr416 what you said applies to begginers my friend not for violists of such calibre. they decide how the bow is to be placed. bow placement is wrong if the sound produced is faulty

[@achillesthetrojan1]

@dereczynski I think its Will Ferrell, if im not mistaken.

[@Fisherdec]

the cadenza sounds like a sauret cadenza. very paganini-like

[@MaureenMcEachen]

Vesselin Demirev

[@MrBryanbjs]

is this stradivariu's violin?

[@vdemirev]

+Bryan Silva Hello, and thanks for listening. The violin is not a Strad. It is J. Caspani, 1659

[@MrBryanbjs]

vdemirev Thanks.

[@ordaviolin]

vdemirev Весо, браво!

[@manderson416]

Piano should always follow violin

[@mariadelloreficemusic]

my only criticism is that ur bow is not very straight. the frog tends to stay towards you and the tip points away from you. other than that, it's perfect!

[@ruthanneschnell9815]

Maria Dell'Orefice who cares because the tone is delicious slow playing gives away the competence of a violinist and this man is an artist!

[@masael255]

Shouldn't the pianist be following the violin here? It is a violin concerto.

[@Cristuuu]

hasty pianist =/ nice violinist
