Kudos not only to the soloist, the conductor, and the orchestra, but also to the recording engineer that captured this performance in a flawless manner!
Mr. Jackiw gives one of the most outstanding interpretations of this work that I've heard. His tone and technique are amazing. Many thanks for sharing this performance.
My beloved uncle passed a few weeks ago. It was his favourite piece of music, ever. He even wrote a book on it and published it last summer. So proud of him, forever. I played it next to him in the hospital, at his funeral and now when I'm studying and missing him so much and I can feel him here with me listening to it. My mentor, my guide, my guardian angel, my best friend, my uncle. Another light has just gone on in heaven.
What a beautiful tribute to your uncle. Some of us have amazing uncles like that and we are blessed. If you could provide us with the link to the book that he wrote about this piece, I would love to share it with my musician friends.

Totally amazing. The orchestra is trying to keep up with him. What a clean, in tune performance! I love the cellists' facial expressions, saying, "Yup, he's freaking good."
I have confidence this recording would serve as a cornerstone for classical music for years to come. His layered sensitivity, nuanced execution -- nothing is overdone or underdone, everything in the right amount without undermining the artistic integrity of the piece. Most of all, it's completely selfless and devoted to the music. As evident by the principal's facial expressions throughout the entire performance! I've listened to this video countless times now, helps me concentrate and reminds me how beautiful the world can be. Thank you, Stefan.
Ah, Bruch's "4th" Violin Concerto! The most "violiny", if you will, of the Bruchian treasures and, therefore, the most ingratiating, fulfilling and gratifying for the soloist (not to mention the audience!!). The response, both during the performance (facial) and afterward (same cellist's applause was so loud you can hear it above the appreciative din) tells the story. Really, forget the very few minor mistakes and the inexorable tempi in the last movement (Stefan burning through some passages, yet completely persuasive), this is unbridled joy, commitment and love. Oh, to be that cellist...what a life-affirming experience!
Rock solid tuning. Rock solid technique. Rock solid musicality. Absolutely heavenly sound in high positions. No over-playing. No thrashing. No nasty over pressured bow noises. Why is this man not at the top of the classical fiddle charts? His playing here is absolutely stella.
I agree. As a spoiled (?) resident of Seattle, I had the pleasure to see and hear him several times in the wonderful concert series of the Seattle chamber music Society.
매일 들어와서 이 연주자의 영혼을 같이 느낀다 매끄럽기만 한 연주는 감동적이지않다 그러나 이 연주자는 날 것의 싱그럽고 액티브하고 동시에 가슴을 저릿하게 만드는 섬세한연주가 일품이다 누군가가 그리울때 이 연주를 듣노라면 애타는 선율이 가슴을 때리다가 이내 그리움뒤의 평온을 선물해준다 단연 최고다!
At first glance, I thought the soloist in the thumbnail was Maxim Vengerov. However, when I clicked the video, I was very pleasantly surprised! This soloist is superb!
24:24-24:40 Now THAT is an exquisite moment! The cellist caught it also and the smile spread across his face! The cellist, in fact, has a marvelous time throughout the entire piece 27:30. 30:45 hearty clapping with such appreciation...It is nice to see orchestra members enjoying and in harmony with the soloist, conductor and the music.
this young man blows me away with his refined tone and sensibility, all to serve the music . A class of his own. His Korngold concerto here on youtube is another fine example. He gets under my skin, moves me truly. And in both peformances I am also impressed with the orchestras and conductors!
Look at disbelief on the face of the cellist starting at 29:30. It culminates a bit later in face saying “I’ll could never be as good as that guy, and I don’t mind a bit”. The way the cellist applauds later shows his respect and admiration. This is something one doesn’t see often in music videos.
About 15years ago, I heard Stephen play this song in Korea. He was a nameless young violinist and played it much more aggressively and toughly than this. I've never felt such emotion listening to this song played by any other even Heifetz before and after that day. Getting smoother and composed, 4th movement, especially intro, reminds me of that time. I love it!
정말로 혼이 담긴 아름다운 연주다.이렇게 좋은 연주는 처음이다. 듣는 사람을 몰입시키는 연주, 작곡자의 마음을 속속들이 찾아서 보여주는 듯한 감상을 즐겼다. 자칫 기교에만 만족하는 그런 연주에서 탈피한, 그야말로 만족하는 흐뭇한 예술이다.젊이가 이렇게까지 표현할 수 있다는 것은 참으로 드문 모습이었다.
I'd agreed with you. His playing reminds me of his late grandfather who was the famous poet and educator in Korea. His play calms me down while I am with my intense daily routine.
it's one thing to master a piece, and quite another to have the ability to perform flawlessly without any trace of performance anxiety. You could listen to just this one performance, none other is needed.
Stepan pi jackiw ... A young hopeful violinist from harvard !! His passionate performance of violin, The melody of the violin flowing through the tip of his hand is truly touching and touching...
Mr. Jackiw is a tout-de-force of violin. The blending of the timeless Bruch and the brilliant Jackiw turns the piece into a breathtaking and intoxicating art of music that transports the listeners to Seventh Heaven -- Unforgettable!
I feel like the Finale is one of those good examples of classical being inspiration or the early stages of heavy metal music. I can easily feel the movement of the soloist with the fast paced choppiness in the notes then abruptly slurring multiple notes at once. Pure magic.
This young man is a violinist! While there are many that play the violin they are only violin 🎻 players. This young man is a true violinist! Bravo for your commitment to Bruch. You brought great joy to this listener!
@@stevepowsinger733 Fantasy, at least in this context, usually denotes a piece of music composed using motifs from other works, and in such a way where the composer builds on top of those motifs in an improvisational-like manner.
Don’t know how else to put it... This performance touches my soul. I come back to it again and again. The amount of space he and the orchestra allow is amazing. So vulnerable and touching. The perfect marriage of incredible soloist, conductor, and orchestra. Absolutely mind-blowing.
Stefan Jackiw has achieved the highest Level of musicianship. Not only has He become one with the Music but he has become music herself to the point of oblivion that there still is such a thing like a body or an Instrument. What an Inspiration.
I couldnt help falling in love with Stefan Jackiw and his music, full of passion and love for human emotions! So beautiful that almost makes me feel despair!!
Hermosísima obra. La música de Max Bruch siempre melodiosa y melancólica. Interpretada con gran expresividad por este magnífico joven violinista. Gracias Stefan, Bravoo!!!!
Beautiful work, the music of Max Bruch is melodious and melancholic. This Scottish fantasy is interpreted with great virtuosity and expressiveness by this magnificent young man. Thanks Stefan Jakew 👏👏👏👏👏🏆🎶🎶🎶
He is just outstanding. A musician of such depth, with tremendous understanding of the music. His phrasing and lines are gorgeous. Tone is stunning too. What an absolute joy to listen to such a remarkable talent.
Stunning performance. Saw this video on 2015 and still captivated by it now. I hope Stefan will make appearance again sometimes sooner. His amazing talent needs to be shared with the world. Wherever you are, Stefan, and whatever you are doing now, I wish you nothing but the best. We also need to congratulate the cameramen and the camera director of the video for his/her successful effort in capturing Stefan and the orchestra's emotion through great angles and points of view. So far the best rendition of Scottish Fantasy I can claim. Bravo!!
This almost 6 years ago. Jackiw plays with the most incredible clarity and feeling. He simply sweeps me away. How is it that he remains relatively obscure?! Why is he not more recognized?!
My husband and I just listened to the first minute or so of the last movement played by all three masters. The crispness of his playing is the best, but, again, it just needs to be slowed down a little more to take the listener on that up and down thrill of this piece. Will look forward to following his career!!!
this is my favourite recording, perfect in so many ways. A testament to this is the grin on the assistant principal cellist's face in the final movement!
1- Jackiw has to be considered one of the most exciting soloists in the world right now. Thank you for coming to Denver a few weeks ago (although now my son has the Prokofiev 2 on on constant loop), please come back to CO soon. 2- This orchestra is world class and so is their recording engineer.
I am an amateur violinist. It is wonderful to see and hear how this incredible piece can be played by a great young talent. Thanks You Tube for the posting.
Max Bruch's music is angelical. The voices coming out of the strings are dards transfixing our hearts with their tones full of melancholy, sorrow and lamentation. A heartache rain over one's soul. Most beautiful music. All his creations are beautiful.
I really fall in love with this piece of music. Every morning on my way to work I on it on my mobile phone. Most of my phone data used up on listening to this music. I heard this at least 25 times. Bravo Stefan. I hope you can play in Singapore.
Wunderschöne Aufführung dieses spätromantischen Konzerts mit außergewöhnlich süßem Ton der Solovioline und gut harmonisierten Töne anderer Instrumente. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders spannend. Der geniale Dirigent leitet das perfekt trainierte Orchester im lyrischen Tempo mit effektiv kontrollierter Dynamik. Einfach wunderbar!
He made the violin (a device) spoken directly to your senses and heart! Beyond words, but felt from the heart! How wonderful! A very talented violinist among the new generation! Looking forward to his performance in near future. Bravo! 💕😊
In every performance I've heard up 'til now, you know that the fourth movement is difficult because the violinist is clearly working hard. Jackiw plays with reckless abandon without missing a note, making it sound as easy as an elementary etude. I'm impressed.
I keep coming back to this performance to see if it's really as great as my first impression. It is. (It's not just the assistant principal cellist. Keep an eye on the cellist behind him, too.)
llevo muchos años escuchando violinistas. desde qué máximo Vengerov y Gil shagan empezaban a darse a conocer. este es la segunda vez que lo escucho y he llorado. un super clase que no sé cómo todavía no lo había escuchado
I am so fortunate to have happened upon this video tonight. I had never heard of the Galician Symphony before, but I know I'll be hearing more of them now!
he is a heifetz of sorts...impeccable precision in notes with much originality, musicality, style and everything and more of a great violin virtuoso...had not heard about him until today..Got me spellbound and captivated to the 6th sense..
This is an amazing rendition of the piece. so full of soul. I listened to other virtuosos and while they are all of course fantastic in their own rights, I ALWAYS come back to this video for Bruch's Scottish Fantasy. I don't know about who is better, but Stefan Jackiw spoke to me with his music.
I just discovered it a few days ago and I couldn't agree with you more, it's absolutely beautiful and pure in expression and brings me to tears every time I listen to it, because of the beauty of the piece itself, but mainly because of the way Jackiw is speaking to us. A truly rare and great gift!
this kid is frekin supernatural. He plays every single note perfectly which is baaaasically impossible. im watching the cellist dudes face for half the video lool
30:42 Cello dude leans his cello on his left leg and then starts clapping with those large hands. The mike picks-up his claps at various times. Watch his hands and listen for the clapping sound.
A magnificent performance by the whole ensemble, so much passion and energy. Thank you to the conductor, the orchestra, the magnificent harpist and the truly wonder soloist, not forgetting the person who posted this on TH-cam.
It's not so common to watch someone perform with such a combination of soul and technical accuracy. He absolutely nails it.

Never heard such perfect violin playing. Perfect orchestra. Perfect sound recording. What a musical treat! Performance not from this world. ❤

Very touching how he encourages the conductor to recognize the harpist and then gives her his flowers.

super fine performance. i guess this is the best version of scottish fantasy of all.

Bloody beautiful performance. Causes my hairs to stand on end..
Love him.
Had I not listen to this great performance by Stefan....... it would have been a great loss....
I just love the way they all work together as a team watching the soloist for every nuance and movement. Brilliant leadership
This is the best Scottish Fantasy ever; I used to love Heifetz's Fantasy the most...but this is a very tough one to ever top by anyone else.
alfredo campoli's rendition is great...
Tasmin Little's recording is also wonderful. I have a feeling Heifetz's fine recording (at least the one with Sargent) is slightly cut.
I don’t really know what a fantasy is but I know I like this.

Absolutely wonderful. I recall reading somewhere that this was one of Heifetz's favourite pieces. He loved the music. I suspect this kid loves it too.
this kid is frekin supernatural. He plays every single note perfectly which is baaaasically impossible.
im watching the cellist dudes face for half the video lool
I mean, he's not a kid, he's 31 in the video.
Yes, but what about the spaces between the notes? Or the piece as a whole? Does he play **those perfectly?
Yes!! The cellist is like "Whaaaat?"" This young man is very gifted...
30:42 Cello dude leans his cello on his left leg and then starts clapping with those large hands. The mike picks-up his claps at various times. Watch his hands and listen for the clapping sound.
Not a kid
A magnificent performance by the whole ensemble, so much passion and energy. Thank you to the conductor, the orchestra, the magnificent harpist and the truly wonder soloist, not forgetting the person who posted this on TH-cam.
Well said sir! (or sir-ess as the case may be).
