Its not often that we sit and hold our breath while we listen to a violinist. This was one of those moments...that was remarkable!!!

[@CENTERONE700]

Playing Vieuxtemps Concerto No. 5 is my life time goal...

[@utb9999]

Re-listening to this, still amazing your playing at age 13!

[@NathanMeltzer]

Thanks! Seems like forever ago ;)

[@maryflorrodriguez204]

Unbelievable...very emotional and technically flawless as well... Well Done Nathan!

[@markalanlongo]

What can you say besides...... SPECTACULAR!!!! This is remarkable for ANY AGE! More more more! What understanding of the harmony and line ! One question who are the STUPID 7 people who hate this?? Cant understand it!! I'm grateful for talent like this ! Amazing!

[@micaelcano8055]

And, I go through them all, and just replay. It never fails.

[@kathrynreeves4h]

Nathan, thank you for posing a great performance! I am accompanying this in a month, and your recording is invaluable to hear the interactions between the violin and piano. Having access to such a high level performance is so helpful! Thank you for sharing it.

[@NathanMeltzer]

Thanks so much, Kathryn! Glad it helps... and best of luck with your performance next month!! :)

[@mchung1972]

been a while since I've been on KZbin -- terrific work Nathan! Your phrasing and musicianship continue to impress me! Great finger control, dexterity, and limberness -- esp. the 3rd & 4th. Can't say enough good things about your playing and potential -- keep it up!

As always, your playing sounds beautiful Nathan!

[@utb9999]

Amazing.

[@sangeetabraam]

An incredible performance, Nathan! You've managed to capture all the beautiful melodies, colours and contrasts of this piece wonderfully and with great sensitivity. If this is a work in progress, I'm really looking forward to hearing your final version of it.

[@marcosnepo]

Hello dear Nathan, thanks for sharing. Have a great week. Best wishes, Marcos

[@krishnarupasewsunker]

[@NathanMeltzer]

Thank you! :)

[@Samuel-fp1ul]

I wish I could play as well as you :'(

[@NathanMeltzer]

I'm sure you are wonderful! Are you working on Vieuxtemps now?

[@Samuel-fp1ul]

+Nathan Meltzer Not this concerto yet, but I will have to work it for my 3rd cycle exam. But I'm learning "Rêve" by Vieuxtemps and Copland's nocturne. I still have difficulties with the vibrato ^^ Especially in the high notes ! I hope I'm understandable because I'm French.

[@Samuel-fp1ul]

Nathan Meltzer Does it bother you if I ask you some questions? When did you start playing violin and how long do you work your violin each day ?

[@danielepecchioli1961]

Bravo!!

[@PearlgraceandCoMusic]

Wow you're such a great young inspirational gifted violinist. Bravo. It's like a dream to play this very technical piece it's my fav piece , m still learning double Bach and Mozart the 3 violin concerto, it took me a year already , my next challenging piece that my teacher encourages me to work on is the wienianski concerto no 2 , wish me luck on that lol . Thankx Nathan for a lovely performance. Cheers 🍻

[@NathanMeltzer]

Thanks so much! So glad you are going to tackle the wieniawski! It's a great piece and though I definitely didn't feel ready for it when I started, I learned so much from it!! Good luck.... and have fun!! :)

[@TuanHoang-hb2id]

[@nannagonunnuya]

You look so much older from when you were 12, you grew up so fast

[@NathanMeltzer]

4 years and 4 feet taller ;)

[@takumitag]

Hey Nathan, i am doing this too! nice job! :-)

[@alessandromalinverno7097]

Well done Nathan!! very well played for that age. The only thing, maybe the long notes could be a bit longer. this adds to the feeling that u display here.

[@Lucario9d]

Looks much older than 13 but maybe that’s just me lol. This is amazing.

[@pianodudeler]

Is that a new bow and slightly altered hold? Wonderful performance! Keep polishing!

[@serranaomi]

I did know that Vieuxtemps had a violin Concert, only for viola, but you give a Character very accentuated, especially in the first movement. Are yours the Cadences or improvisations? Wondefuls!

[@sunmihinsdale3006]

9:37 cadenza

[@lidaviolinist]

Очень понравилось!

[@colsov4822]

damm i wish i could do that

[@NathanMeltzer]

I'm sure you can! Just a lot of slow practice :)

[@SimonStreuffViolinEducation]

Nice! Work it hard bro!!

[@pianocorazon]

4:30 or so is the piano solo 🎹

[@jbiebrich]

What violin do you own? And how much did it cost? Thank you please respond :)

[@Clutched392]

Okay so let me get this straight. This is after 5 years of progress???

[@NathanMeltzer]
