I feel like that was Vengerov's choice.... because they don't play any notes soon after. He could've waited 4 seconds or whatever and they just all had to follow him. But I get what you mean. I like that brief suspense! Really adds to the romantic drama that Tchaikovsky was all about !

[@celiadessertine8953]

WOW, I was looking for an old recording of this concerto that my parents had, and I have come across this absolutely mesmerizing performance. Such color, passion and nuance. Such a pleasure.

[@fingerhorn4]

He seems to have permanently changed now to more wrist vibrato except for high positions and the little finger. I like the sound. But I wonder why he has changed? Age? More flexibility? Enables faster vibrato? When he was younger (see the now well known Sibelius on KZbin) he was nearly always using arm vibrato throughout. There are very few players who can use both effortlessly but he is one. As usual, a stunning performance.

[@gagamin2]

His basic vibrato was always wrist.

[@Sonic22258]

Yes, but have you watched his left head?

[@liamnevilleviolist1809]

@@Sonic22258 heh, this dialogue could go back and forth infinitum. But yes, his left hand has changed technique ever so slightly over the years since his shoulder dislocation and he's making violin-life easier on himself (and teaches that to students so they can avoid injury - great pedagogy from master Vengerov!) His right hand and whole arm is something he has adjusted quite drastically. He relaxes his shoulder me and moves around his shoe torso much less! He talks about the importance of wrist flexibility and certain fingers having their individual roles in holding and manipulating the bow to get the desired sound.I learned from him to keep my right forearm down which you'll be able to see in my videos on my channel, particularly the Bach gigue I play. Many months before that I had quite a high arm, almost Menuhin-like which is NOT a good thing as it caused him damage so much so that he had days where he did not even pick up the violin at all....

[@liamnevilleviolist1809]

He has a very "urgent" fourth finger that stabs the desired note with instant intonation! We can all be jealous of that! It's harder for us violists to achieve. We strive to do the same thing but place out third finger behind the fourth for stability (if the passage does allow for that, but if we quickly have to use the third finger soon after the fourth then that is quite different as you may know [if you're a violinist/violist/cellist yourself :) ].

Bei dieser Aufnahme aus dem Jahr 2014 erlebt man einen ebenso besinnlich wie stringent spielenden Solisten, der wieder eine Gipfelleistung brillant präsentiert, in der Charakteristik an David Oistrach erinnernd. Nebenbei: Unter den Streichern habe ich den Geiger Carmine Lauri entdeckt, der bei einer Aufnahme der „Missa Solemnis“ von Beethoven eindrucksvoll auch den Solopart spielt. Diese Einspielung mit dem „Malta Philharmonic Orchestra“ ist eine ebenso erstaunliche wie hinreißende Entdeckung, eine wahre Perle als Schmuckstück, das leider bisher viel zu wenig Beachtung gefunden hat.

I am intensely curious as to what violin he is playing. The bottom end, especially the G string, it's very powerful, very loud. The E string is very charismatic and allows for a wide range of dynamics while maintaining projection. The A string is the most civilized and perfect for the piece holding up well in all the giant chords stroked on the instrument during the piece. The instrument projects powerfully although its harmonic series seems easy to overdrive. The G string nearly sounds like a bright viola.

It wasn’t a slide, he was vibrating the harmonic that he was playing. It’s quite difficult to do such a thing and he wasn’t achieving the tone he wanted, so in that process his vibrato looked awkward and perhaps seemed as if he was sliding. Hope this makes sense lol

Maybe my phone cannot reproduce sound well but at say 4:05 and certsinly at 4:40 orchestra seem not filling enough the sound background, somewhat detached from solist, unconvincing. That happens in various parts of performanse. As if conductor is too much damping orchestra to utilize Vengerov's beautiful sound. I dislike that conductor decision if he decided about that. Generally, at average at piano level orcestra should perform better IMHO.

[@joffy1234]

Give me a break. I think that's a very unfair comment to the conductor, orchestra and also Vengerov. You cannot just assume what the audience was hearing. A lot of the dynamics will be different when you hear it. The process of recording, transcribing and uploading to youtube, and listing on your phone, these all can change the perception.

[@bpetersson5024]

the hall in Oxford is very live and cavernous so the smallest sound is amplified to a much greater degree than what you hear in the recording. So what you hear is two/three reproductions away from the original with minimal quality consideration each time the signal i fed to a speaker, like your mobile phone. So, see him play live at some point to get the real thing, record it on your mobile using the video app, upload to ur Utube channel and then play it back and see the difference. These people know how to play...
