Kyung Wha Chung plays Bruch violin concerto No.1 (1974)

[@raoze7017]

그러니까... 1974년에 클래식 음악계에선, 피아노 하면 루빈스타인, 첼로 하면 로스트로포비치, 지휘자 하면 주빈 메타를 꼽았는데, 바이올린 하니까 제일 먼저 정경화 선생님을 꼽았다, 이거 아닙니까. 하 놀랍네요! 당시 유럽 클래식 청중들은 그랬을지도 모르죠. "아니 루빈스타인, 로스트로포비치와 어깨를 나란히 하는 저 이름도 이상하고 낯선 동양 처자는 대체 누구야?" 하지만 브루흐의 바이올린 협주곡을 들으면, 누구나 고개를 끄덕이게 됐을 거란 생각이 듭니다. 정경화의 브루흐는 여러 녹음 버전이 있지만 하나 같이 훌륭하고, 언제 들어도 감동이 줄지 않는 역사적 명연들입니다. 이 좋은 연주에, 덤으로 이십대 정경화의 아름답고 격정적인 연주 모습을 볼 수 있는 귀한 기회를 주신 데 감사드립니다.

[@닥터제이텔레비젼韓日]

유튜브가 있어 이런 오래전 영상을 다시 볼 수 있다는 것이 너무 소중한 느낌. 레전드다

[@readnow77]

차이콥스키,멘델스존,부르흐 이 세곡의 명 바이올린 협주곡을 이토록 완벽에 가깝게 연주하는 연주자는 현존 정경화 선생님이 유일하다. 한국사람들 너무 자국 연주자 수준을 낮게 보는듯 한데요..외국에서도 정경화 선생님은 이미 살아있는 전설입니다.

국뽕이 아니라 멘델스존이나 브루흐 협주곡 같은경우엔.... 정경화 선생님 전성기때 즉 연국으로 건너가셔서 핀커스 주커만 공동우승하고 한창 활동 많이 하셨던 1970s 녹음들보면... 힐러리 한이니 율리아피셔니... 안네소피무터니.... 이런 분들보다 확실히 한수위라는게 느껴집니다... 데카에서 괜히 레전더리 딱지 붙여서 앨범이 다시 나오진 않았겠죠 ㅠㅠ

[@soorimaeul]

정경화선생님의 이 Bruch 연주는 정말 명연주라고 생각합니다. 선생님의 바이올린 연주로 부터 검객의 칼의 날카로움, 무서운 살기 같은 것을 다 느끼게 되니 말입니다. 동시에 뭐라 말할 수 없는 깊이 눌러앉은 슬픔 같은 것이 진하게 다가오기도 해서 매우 복잡한 심정입니다. 참 음악을 진지하게, 진실하게 하시는 대가라 아니할 수 없습니다. 오랜만에 정경화선생님의 이 Bruch 연주를 다시 들었는데 여전히 목이 메어오는 것은 어쩔 수가 없네요.

Among all great violinists, Kyung Wha Chung's version of Bruch violin concerto No.1 is one of the best in musical interpretation and phrasing!

[@vegancrabcakes]

Agreed. I’ve listened to many recordings and performances and Chung’s is probably the best.

[@jessicafrizell3212]

I first heard this more than 40 years ago and was so moved by it that I bought a recording for my mum. Beautiful Kyung-Wha Chung playing this exquisite concerto gave my mum and I endless hours of deep joy. I hadn’t heard it for some time and playing this through KZbin just now was almost painful as it took me back to something that my mum( now long gone) and I had shared. ❤️

[@mjs6305]

Wow, what a deeply touching memory you have with your mom.💓 It’s so beautiful how music can hold such profound meaning and keep those cherished moments alive. Thank you for sharing this-it’s a reminder of how precious those connections are.

[@1324390]

One of the greatest violinists of our time ! Honoured to have attended one of her live performances at the Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall many years ago... Such a memorable evening !

[@cnewtonc]

SHE IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE. Her performances are always perfect to me. There is always so much passion in her style that is really missing in MOST of today's players. Yes... some of them are very good but very few can bring the passion of Kyung Wha Chung. Only a very few can not even come close to her style. She makes everything sounds excellent.

[@lovemetu]

Just one name of someone who I have seen play this live in London 2 years ago, quite brilliant performance, the audience went mad, so many encores and in my opinion even better performance than this......who could this person be ?...........Sarah Chang !! Both wonderful violinist's though along with so many wonderful ones around now and in the past. So many very good Asian lady violinist's coming through now, bravo to all of them !!

[@cnewtonc]

I like Sarah Chang also and she is very good but I am 48 and have been playing for over 30 years. For me Kyung Wha is still my favorite, I been following her even before Sarah Chang was well known. I will try to get the Sarah Chang Recording and compare... Thanks.

[@EuniceCChina]

Definitely, I agree; she completely fulfills every single instance with such passion and expressiveness!

[@lovemetu]

Eunice C. China Are you referring to Kyung Wha Chung or Sarah Chang ? Amongst many others, Sayaka Shoji, ( who has the highest amount of views on KZbin for a Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto performance, over 4 million at present ) is also making a big name for herself at present but so many fine Violinists to chose from at present. We are so lucky to be able to see and hear all these wonderful musicians anytime, free on KZbin.

[@lovemetu]

Eunice C. China N Charles Their is a very nice long video you should both enjoy titled ''Kyung Wha Chung - miscellaneous clips or a short life story'' on KZbin that I just found, copy and paste in to the KZbin search bar and you should find it !!

One of my favorite too and it communicates to me well thru her emotion. I liked other performances of this piece by from other violinist too.

[@sct352t3]

This is a wonderful performance and great to see Kyung Wha Chung in action from this era. The classic 1972 version of this by Chung and Conductor Rudolf Kempe is still available and that version of the Adagio featured on 'Your Hundred Best Tunes' compilations as well. It always moves me that bit at around 15:00 where the whole orchestra comes in loudly. It's theme has been called 'a melodic glory of the 19th century'. Few would argue with that.

[@이정열-u5m]

She always makes me feel to be proud of being Korean. I guess this is the one when she was most young which I have ever seen. Her performance has it all. . subtle, deep, serene, vibrant.. She was so beautiful too. I am woman. :)

Ooh, such vigour, impetus, and finesse,unhurried, all the more intense and captivating for that; above, below and within, a sublime richness, divine depth of tone and feeling, a sense of youth bursting at the seams, beauty and tragedy both sought and found.
