Itzhak Perlman Vivaldi The Four Seasons Spring

[@lziomek1]

I am learning how to play the violin at 44 years old. This man is my inspiration!!!!! HE IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!! I want so much to play like him some day!!!!!! My husband is getting back into guitar playing and we want to play together and inspire our kids to do the same... MUSIC IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! My father use to play Vivaldi for me as a child and I hold on so dear to those memories...

I started playing 6 months ago and I'm 33!!!! Went to his concert several months ago and I loved it!

When I read your comment I chuckled because I remembered how "The Preppy Handbook" termed "Music Appreciation, (yes, I'm that Old)": "Clapping for Credit." Gotta admit, that's funny. Btw I took "German Folk Songs" for 1 credit I needed to graduate Honors at UCONN. I do think Dr. Lederer saw the Tall Boy and Pounder cans we were cracking in the back row of the lecture theater seats-but he was German, a Good Man, and let it infuse the moment. It did, 4:30 PM on a lazy afternoon once a week.

[@Loathello]

Tears and goosebumps. Mr. Perlman is an inspiration, demonstrating the best of what human beings are capable of.

[@arnoldbetleer7316]

I am now 87 years old and had the opportunity to meet this illustrious musician at The Juilliard School in 1989. I was still teaching music at the time and the day I saw him I was teaching a student the Basque whimsy of Sarasate. I will never forget that day

[@wendymattucci4336]

I just saw Joshua Bell tonight play with a pianist and I'm almost positive that song you mentioned was one of his encores! Itzak Perlman came to the same small auditorium near my home and his concert sold out last year before I could buy a ticket. Whar a treat for you to have met him! I am not a musician, but I have an incredibly high appreciation for the arts- especially violinists.

[@inbach]

I've been in two master-classes with perlman, and he really made me fall inlove with classical music. He played the solo in this concerto, and about 200 violin players played the orchestra part from the audience. I don't think I'll ever hear something this powerful.

[@wanderingsoul1189]

You are lucky.

[@MrChannel19]

Ytzak Perlman is a Master of the Violin and the impact of that era, as it was meant to be imagined by the original composer. Very hard to do! It would take centuries to emulate this talent. May he be granted enough life to play to his hearts content! Truly G-d given talent and humor!

If you have Itzhak Perlman, then you don't need a seperate concertmaster or conductor. Because they can be both at the same time.

The first violinist, usually sits in for the conductor as it happens here. He is better placed to lead.
