Ning Feng plays Sauret Cadenza from Paganini Concerto no.1

[@qwertyuiokjhnm]

Look at the guy behind him

[@aegeanenjoyer668]

1:48 lmao

[@jfxc1]

He is probably one of the most gifted violinists I have ever heard. He will go all the way to the top.

[@SR-jx8yu]

Those violinists in the orchestra must be thinking, "If only I could play like that! Me too! My God to able to play like that and make it sound so effortless! What a gift indeed!!! LOVE this artist!

[@xoma9377]

There's no music in what he plays, just a heap of strokes, scratches and squeaking; has nothing to do with Belcanto. What's more, the intonation is off in too many passages.

[@xoma9377]

@h. I can't, but my daughter can - she's a violinist, I am a pianist.

[@xoma9377]

@h. My advice for this guy is to play more scales.

[@xoma9377]

@h. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZu9gZqMl7mZrNk Here is a link to Leonidas Kavakos playing this cadenza - that's the way it should be played.

[@xoma9377]

@h. Some skills and technique are surely there, but listening to this heap of sounds is difficult. If you are a violinist, follow the link above and listen to Leonidas Kavakos playing this cadenza for your enjoyment. Kavakos plays real music, not just a mess of sounds, and plays it in style. That's what make European violinists so different from Asian ones. The latter are workaholics, that's true, they are technicians, they have skills, but most of them do not understand European classical music and can't play it properly, even Ray Chen. For me the real paragons of violinist's performing art, apart from Kavakos, are Anne-Sophie Mutter, Janine Jansen, Leonid Kogan.

[@CookingJames1]

I feel like I have to give him a standing ovation right after the cadenza no matter what

[@2000VIOLINO]

Una de las mejores versiones en vivo que he escuchado de la cadencia de Sauret , gran magnetismo . Excelente Feng.👏🏻

[@shawkobezhu]

the guy behind ningfeng steals the show with his facial expressions

[@gnatural]

sauret must have been a freaking beast on the violin because the cadenza is 100x harder than the concerto.

[@ts13579_texas_usa]

Ning Feng: "Mmmm... Really? I hadn't noticed." Sauret: "A freaking beast? Nah. Just because I wrote it, that doesn't mean I could actually *play* it!"

[@gnatural]

@@ts13579_texas_usa yes indeed , the concerto is quite easy compared to the cadenza

[@ts13579_texas_usa]

@@gnatural Thanks for your feedback. Much appreciated!

[@gnatural]

@@ts13579_texas_usa of course sauret could play the cadenza lol. Could heifetz play the cadenza ? David Nadien? Of course it would be child’s play and Heifetz was born 1902? When you go back in time you actually find that the violinists were far greater than anybody playing today . it’s just silly to think that someone would write something they cannot play . It’s like saying Rachmaninoff cannot play his piano concertos because he lived so long ago.

[@ts13579_texas_usa]

@@gnatural Thank you for explaining that. But of course, you knew that I was not completely serious. :)

[@Viiolinist2323]

The cadenza blew me away. I tried playing it, alas, that cadenza made me mad. Now, I just try to play Joachim's cadenza. It is soooo much easier!

[@grammarpolice8009]

Have you learned it?

[@amacviolins]

I can feel Paganini's spiritual...

[@하드로미]

Mirical lyrical individual?

[@damexipino]

You mean Sauret?

[@violinvirtuose8531]

This is the best perfoming on this Cadenza!!! and Leonidas Kavakos!!!

[@peeyansh]

and kogan

[@dianal.1279]

Wow! I hope he comes perform here! I love his energy! I can't even imagine how many hours of hard work are hidden behind his amazing technique! Bravo!🌻🌹

[@stradivari08]

@Chiarottola84 This is the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra, probably one of the best in Asia! Cheers! Greeting from Taipei, Yishu

[@twagdrewer1296]

The violinist behind him on the left side can’t stop smiling because of arousal at some passages, it’s too funny, I couldn’t hold back either haha

[@riccardopini9340]

Questo video si attesterà come uno dei no dei passi memorabili della storia del violino . Autentico fuoriclasse .

[@latindancfun]

Awesome performance !

[@nidakaruyan7809]

Who is from two set ?

[@stradivari08]

Wow, isn't the Malaysian Philharmonic? Bravo Ning, regret for not being able to attend this concert in my hometown! Were you playing the Strad which you played during your recital in Singapore in Febuary 2008? Thanks for uploading this, I enjoys this so much! Greetings from Taipei

[@telomoreiralopes2084]

Excelente violinista ,espetáculo!

[@aramkhachaturian8043]

1:20 is when I start being unable to comprehend what he is doing

[@fatdoi003]

beast mode gone hyper

[@Dogaradodia]

The most exciting, the fastest Sauret cadenza!

[@stevenvinson1615]

Check out the Roman Kim one off recording. It's gnarly

[@Chlapichlapo]

I could do that ! All I need is approx. 10 years of hard work. ;)

[@Violedegambe]

Should be OK now 😂

[@matthewgonzalez2040]

Okay ten years

[@tristianthemonkey8577]

you do it yet?

[@m.p.3musicstudio411]

10 YEARS

[@Chlapichlapo]

@@Violedegambe Give me a few minutes more please... :)

[@beenthereonce]

Judging from the dislikes, there are at least 29 people who have never played this cadenza. Bravo!

[@ts13579_texas_usa]

@john Pilskog Well, not exactly. They've played it. But only the the tuba.

[@shawkobezhu]

the guy behind him is like.. oh shit man, snap. we should get drunk together.

[@J_MrSky]

Look at his angry bow strokes. Im not one at all to make fun of the way someone plays, but that just struck me as odd the way he plays with such agression. This performance is spectacular though.

[@armensargsyan9263]

Bravissimo! Maestro.

[@Nightwatcher2401]

Where is the full cadenza version?

[@stradivari08]

@Chiarottola84 This is the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra！

good job

[@jascha1978]

super awesome!

[@ryanc2469]

Now this is 15 notes a second.

[@muslit]

i wonder if it's worth getting sooooooooooo worked up over a hideous cadenza like the sauret - but you know competitions, which have ruined schools of violin playing across the globe -now there must be a zillion wonderful great violinists in the world - hehe

[@slike87]

Nice, however I like Kavakos`s interpretation better :).

[@paoloblazina2233]

Un grande violinista !!!

[@violinxiao]

Be proud of Ning Feng

[@DannielleElliott]

Bring it on!

[@muslit]

the male violinist behind feng ning obviously is trying not to laugh

[@jascha1978]

bravo!!!!!!!!!!!

[@chuckcornelius194]

lots of missing notes at 1:46, the diminished arpeggio. he was doing OK up til then, just kind of rushed it.

[@nicholaschung8207]

fax bruh leonidas kavakos plays this cadenza so much better and clearer

[@Zeegoner]

@@nicholaschung8207 It's not so clear to me. Feng's phrasing at random spots, for example like 2:46 - 2:48 are just pure genius that can't be overlooked

[@belmon38]

OMG

[@鍾炳堅]

he won the first prize.

[@wumohe]

Do you know how difficult this cadenza is? You guys just know how to criticise people in such a malicious way, as if you were the best music know-how in the world. I even doubt if you can play the violin "properly"...? Sham on you all!

[@mannangkattamenon8155]

Best performance of this credenza is of Leonid Kogan ...

[@СеваизМосквы]

Круто!👍

[@Dogaradodia]

he doesn't make it look easy

Roman Kim is very good

[@sebastiansuvini6897]

Look at Andrea Obiso’s cadenza

[@aegeanenjoyer668]

Wait wtf, forced harmonics at 2:48??? Gigabased

[@망히-z9z]

The tradition not to applaud after the first movement is absolutely wrong and not necessary. Everyone want to applaud but keep silent only because someone stupid made it stupid tradition. If someone famous like Karajan or Toskanini breaks the bad tradition, perhaps it will stop. Keeping quiet between movements made the classical concerts all the more sleepy and boring.

[@TienTran-nm6ms]

I completely agree. It's so forced and unnatural. Ruins some pieces. If the music makes the audience want to break out in applause, then the effect is ruined by forced silence. Classical music could be so much more popular if concert culture weren't so inhibited!

[@christopherhogan691]

So ein quatsch,!!!!! (German for terrible nonsense,) This has nothing to do with music anymore Mr. Feng.. This is gymnastic.. And who can jump to the moon.. While twirling seven bowls on his left foot.

[@muslit]

not nearly as good as tedi papavrami

[@priscwy794frag]

No, no, and again no. He has so brilliant technique that he can't resist showing it, no matter what. As if he is so eager to show all he know that cannot insert proper pause between phrases. Constantly with this guy you are sort of kidnapped and tied to a chair. Then he appears with enormous pot full of delicious sausages; then he cuts sausages terribly fast and skillfully, and forcefully feeds you untill you suffocate. He should decide to play music, not just his brilliant technique.

[@laipo1175]

thisIsSERBIA what a silly comment btw :)

[@TienTran-nm6ms]

I kind of have to agree. There's something monstrous about overly virtuosic music, and Ning Feng dials it up to 11.

[@juliuscaesar3539]

Its a cadenza btw. He can do what he wants lol. I think it sounds great.
