I am just beginning my journey into Violin after a decade of all styles of guitar. Ewan Dobson lead me to Niccolo and that lead me to see Alexander playing Caprice no.24 exactly one month ago. He is the only one I have seen who demonstrates such madness, the trademark of Niccolo. I truly believe that this is the golden era of instrumental ability, alive now are individuals of singular talent and vision. However, technical facility and theoretical understanding dont always carry the crown. 500 years of scientific growth and I still find Leonardo DiVinci to be on a complete other level, just as I find Niccolo able to eclipse any who have played since. Ability is one thing, but some have something else. DaVinci, Musashi, Tesla, Plato...they seem to have been more.

I find this argument about whether or not Paganini himself could have played them better very amusing. The musicians of today are proving themselves ever more technically adept, and in all likeliness, Markov plays these caprices with a facility that Paganini would have admired and perhaps envied. I could write a complicated and intricate fugue, but just because I wrote it doesn't mean I could play it. No doubt Paganini could, but none of you have the credentials to pass a value judgment on that.
Paganini was forced to practice 10 hours a day by his father and he couldn’t make many mistakes or he was beaten with a stick and punished by having no food . That’s y he was and will always be the best violinist in the world , also that’s why he was always so sick and had a very bad health . His father made him the best of the beast but at a very high cost . There will never be someone better than paganini because we would have to torture another child to build someone like him and that’s is something penalized by law in our days. Also he invented the caprices no one will ever play them better than the inventor . Paganini es the god and the devil of the violin , the true king he earned that .
@@nunyabusiness8498 he had only 1 student, and yes he performed many of his caprices , Paganini was a show man he wasn’t a normal violin soloist , sometimes he played concertos with band , and sometimes he played alone in theaters impressing people with his caprices . He was the first violin show man
At the beginning he was like "waaaahhhh I don't wanna go out! Do i gotta muuumm?!.." "Yes, honey now go get your capri sun, only one, though, only one..."
it is more hard to play this caprice slower than normal because the control of the bow is decreased.but markov's richoche is perfect,I hear all the notes.some best moments at 1:05;1:31;1:42(crazi bow control)5 stars
If you sit down and talk to the people in the know and listen to their stories that still survives today about Nicolo then you would know that there's no one around that could consider his/her playing anything close to the greatest violinist that has ever existed.
I doubt Paganini could have done a better job on the Caprices than Markov! He certainly ranks among the greats!He is absolutely sensational,and judging by his overall control and confidence,he must have trained more than anyone in history!
@@johnchenmusic3706 Yea that's because it's in Andante like what the composer originally wanted unlike most violinists who play much faster. Actually playing it slower is faster than quicker.
To all those who insisted on a "proper tempo" for Liszt's version - see now? It's pointless 'cos to play it on the piano as fast as Markov plays here and you have blurry-sounding chords. Nikolai Petrov's speed is about right. Liszt did not put a metronome marking anyway.
@violinoamore What I meant and what I think was that the composer (anyone, not just Paganini) is the only one who can play his/her compositions better than anyone else, at least, he/she is the only one who can tell to the interpreter how to play the piece, so, in this case, Paganini, as composer and player of his own pieces, is the best interpreter of them.
Unfortunately it is impossible to play something like this on an electric guitar. On the guitar we play arpaggio. It is impossible to fix all the fingers of the left hand in the same position. It will be full of noise because of the distortion. We can play one note at a time and the fingers can move and block with the right and left hand so that there is no noise. On the violin it seems really easy.
@MrNViking I'm not insulting anyone here, if you can not make a desent comment then don't... and in the other hand, what i am trying to say is that just the composer can play the piece he/she wrote in a perfect way becouse he/she wrote in that way... not talking just about Paganini and Markov...
@@aryod3944 Unless you already played some other difficult stuff, I wouldn’t recommend starting by this one Probably one of the hardest Paganini caprices

Right. I edited differently

And he did it so well

Maravilloso.

yep he's da best
The speed is Andante, but he is playing 32nd notes. You can count it just as really fast notes in a slower tempo.
It's so fast its SACRILEGIOUS
