Yehudi Menuhin plays Paganini

[@MsMizmia]

"When he was 3, Yehudi Menuhin was smuggled into the San Francisco Orchestra concerts by his parents. The sound of Louis Persinger's violin so entranced the youngster that he insisted on a violin for his birthday and Louis Persinger as his teacher. He got both. By the time he was 10 years old, Menuhin was an international performer"- coursesmart

[@Geoplanetjane]

Yessss

[@pashaazeem1]

Yehudi Menuhin spells artistry, humanity, unbelievable depth of feeling, richly meaningful interpretation, and an uncanny ability to enter the very centre of the spirit of any music, any composer, work or expressive mode. His ravishing and astonishingly diverse soundscape, the impassioned lyric-dramatic vibrato, the controlled trills and subtle shifts of pace, tone, pressure, force and dynamics, the immersed communication to listener, straight from heart to heart - this was a universal violinist, an eternal quality resides in his playing which corresponds to the epochal shifts in his playing manner and mode through the great tides and tectonic shifts of the last century. The debates about who was more 'brilliant' or 'greater'- the young Menuhin, or the sometimes struggling but even more profound and insightful later avatars of the prodigy are facile - best to just close your eyes - or watch him as he closes his and loses himself in the trance of his own music making...

Always a pleasure to listen to Yehudi Menuhin. Rarely a pleasure to read comments - can we choose to cancel the display of comments when we visit videos - in our settings? Fed up with obscenities and people more interested in their opinions than the music.

Among the top violinists, he was the most elegant.

Solo pienso....es la más entrañable y exquisita interpretación de este segundo movimiento del concierto número uno de N. Paganini.

[@lovedivinemusicdance]

Menuhin an eternal icon of humanity and art shall always be remembered and admired by true music lovers. Thanks for sharing it.

[@edsoncavalcanti4033]

Paganini was very happy to play the violin together in the sky...I love this song...Amazing...

Yehudi Menuhin was divine soul. His music transcends all levels of our senses when we listen to him

[@RosyAfterglow]

What a truly beautiful and lovely man Yehudi Menuhin is...in his demeanor and character...his music expressed this in a more deeply felt level than mere words can express. GOD be praised for such a gift!

Spot-on comment!

[@martincook318]

Having been a Collector of his Records for 40 Year's both on 78rpm and LP Vinyl for forty Years and a admirer and having got all three Versions of the D Major Violin Concerto in my Record Collection I think arguably the best version he made of this work his is old 1934 Recording which he Recorded with Pierre Montuex and the Paris Symphony Orchestra where he was 18 and listened to that Pre war Pressing set Recorded by His Master's Voice on Saturday May 19th 1934 on a five Record set and first Reissued in a deleted LP Box set for his 60th Birthday and 21 year's later he Recorded the work again Coupled with the Sibelius Violin Concerto again Mono ALP 1350 and 5 year years later he made his third and last Recording of the Score Coupled with the Violin Concerto 2 ASD 440 and all for His Master's Voice

[@sagnikpaul233]

I envy you. So much.

[@Rapidguitar]

What I like about the guy is how humble he was. Isn't it funny how we watch more than we listen. The players in his era all had there own sound or style. They all sounded different.

beautiful frased; never knew Paganini could sound so tragic! In spite of Menuhin's problems. later in life with technical aspects, this performance is excellent; I love his modest glissandos and portamentos.

[@MsEEight]

An incredible musician, and a pleasure to listen to! Mr Menuhin gift is a gift to us all.

[@lolap789]

all i can say for this is that its an incredible sound!..this man has only come to my knowledge just recently and already is one of my favourites. I agree with jazzmunky..every type of music should be appriciated. This kind of music speaks to you its sound manages to pierce its self to your soul. by far this music can do great things for one person if they just take the time to really listen to it and let it do its natural wonder.

[@joao_galante]

[@Лидия-и7о3р]

Благодарю бога за то,что дал возможность слушать такого музыканта.

[@이정원-o8u]

beautiful music

[@jazzmunky]

what annoys me about some comments is the adolescent smug attitude towards the masters. Yehudi was a master and consumate gentlemen. His sound is HIS SOUND, like Bird had his. I can understand why a certain sound doesnt resonate with some people but we should still respect them, because the artist has reached those heights of self expression that few of us can, and to slam their sound is just nasty. How many petty commenters on youtube can express themselves so eloquently as menuhin?

[@nehemiahpersoff9534]

I've listened to Mr.Menuhin since we were both children. A geniius

Beautiful, not only technically but with soul. Incidentally, this is the second movement "Adagio". I first heard him play this in 1949. He must have been 33 years old. I wonder when this piece was recorded.

[@ludwigparraperez7801]

No es el tercer movimiento., Es el segundo movimiento del concierto N.1..basado en la súplica de un preso a la Divina providencia!Un libreto de un literato amigo de N.Paganini de la epoca..Esta interpretación de este movimiento., es un verdadero destello de la época del romanticismo/sin duda dentro de la literatura violinistica a través del tiempo...una de las más brillantes interpretaciones!.

[@Deliquescentinsight]

@classicalneoc You are quite right to indicate the precision in terminology. It is through language that we describe reality. A song is 'sung' by the human voice, with lyrics. This is a musical composition of musical expression-a 'Tone Poem' The music itself evokes images and feelings. It is rather like saying fish & chips is the same as Chocolate mousse-all are 'Food' but are quite different.

Espléndido concierto con violines que emergen danzantes, enigmáticos, como un sueño mágico, viajando en las eternidades , y acariciando aguas cantarinas en mares brillantes. Tocan las estrellas y las entrañas sagradas, donde se deplegan ardientemente llamas misteriosas en un largo camino ondulante en una mañana recién nacida, cuando estira sus largos brazos palpando el infinito. Música hecha con palabras con néctares vivos de pasión en un espíritu que se eleva más allá del sol. Así es la música de Yehudi Menuhin¡¡¡¡¡,
