I am a 38 yr old black female who lives in the ghetto city of East Cleveland Ohio and I love the violin. I don't know how to play, have never played, however; I FELL IN LOVE with the way this man plays my favorite instrument even though I don't know how to play and have never played. When I heard the musical score for Schindler's List I had to find out who was playing that violin. The way Mr. Perlman plays is wonderfully maddening. I have his CD Itzhak Perlman's Greatest Hits and this song is track number 6 ( I love ALL the tracks, especially 4, 5, and 6). It's about time a video was shown showing him playing this song. I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT! Anybody can rap, not everyone has a TALENT. He has beautifully mastered how to play-not the violin strings-but my heart strings, THAT IS SKILL. The CD I have belongs to the Windermere Public LIbrary and I refuse to bring it back because I love it so. I just keep paying the late fees, o well, so be it. I love it, I wish I could meet him.
You could actually save the the money you will pay as late fees and buy a CD of your own. I think this album it's not expensive at all, if you are willing to buy it.
the Cleveland Institute of Music is not far from you! We put on several world class concerts a year for free (unlike the expensive tickets needed to see the Cleveland orchestra at Severance Hall). We would love to have you some day.
As a violin player, I can tell you that the introduction part may sounds “easy” but actually not at all. It requires difficult bowing control techniques and he just did a superb job.
This rendition is arguably the best I have ever heard - and I have heard it played by all the violin giants of the Golden Age. Mr. Perlman exceeds himself here, capturing the Gallic spirit beautifully. It's all here folks! No need to look further. After this rendition, few violinist today should dare to record it. Mr. Perlman owns this piece!
You know you have nailed it when you can make a technically challenging piece like this sound fluid, crisp, and easy. The best rendition of this masterpiece that I’ve ever heard.
No doubt it was deliberate. Poor Saint-Saens never gets the respect he deserves, one of the greatest performers, universal prodigies and musical humourists in history. I blame Wagner.
What makes this man absolutely unique is that his playing takes one to a place of fantasy within... It is a personal, metaphysical phenomenon that informs and directs his actions, and is not teachable... Lest anyone forget, he can create magic - playing the simplest tune. He is a great personality of music!
@WestkelMusic it doesn't matter about the hours, and amount of hours it takes you or even for him. Its because he has a talent that was given to him, and you have to feel the music to play it with your feelings, and naturally.
sarah lee*0* Do you really believe what you just said? You think you can be an amazing violinist like Perlman without practicing and just by being talented? His talent was achieved by his fierce history of violin playing and performing. How dare you say that his talent wasn’t achieved by the overwhelming time he put into practicing the violin
@@dash595 tbh saying all of that he has acheived was because of talent sounds like a terrible insult. To be able to play like him, you need a combination of talent and practise. How far can one even go without practise? Yeah, not much. If you think that being talented is enough to be like Itzhak, then you're dead wrong.
Mr Perlman is a genious of the violin and in music in general. Congratulations! I would so much meet him, watching him play and listen to him personally.
Thanks for posting this. I played for 10 years, and this is my favorite piece. It’s simply beyond perfect and mind boggling that someone could play it so beautifully.
At this time, Itzhak Perlman looked so much like Schubert! Love them both deeply. And this masterpiece of Saint-Saëns too. Thanks for this moment, Abner Silva.
+Laura Andujo I love LISTENING to Perlman, but I just can't stand seeing those ridiculously histrionic faces he makes when he plays. I'd have to make him play behind a curtain. Poor darling, he thinks he's a clown in a silent movie. God!!
+Jacobin Girondiste You should be whipped in the streets mate, his face is his expressions, he does notmake faces for yous to see, he even answered comments about this very thing in one of his videos,
+Kevin McKie I couldn't agree with you more. Some of the grimacing you see from others (Joshua Bell, Lang Lang) is a bit over the top. But Perlman is absolutely OK with his acial expressions - the reflect the beauty of his artistic soul and I find the whole package wonderful. But, why all this talk? The book on Itzakh Perlaman has been written and is on all the library shelves - one of the greatest violinists, perhaps the greatest, of the second half of the 20th century.
I've been a fan of this piece for a couple of years now, I've heard quite a few renditions, my favorite being Heifetz and Kogan, until just-now... This was a masterpiece play-through. Bravo.
Listening to Perlman play *anything* reminds me how much like the human voice the violin is, and probably more so than any other musical instrument. Just watching him with the chinrest up against his chin, how he must literally feel the sound, just as a singer does when performing. I can't imagine anything more...well...more sensational.
I love very much my favorite violinist Itzhak Perlman!Hy is so wonderful Violonist, for me the best! Very beautiful soul and heart.....Bravo Maestro Itzhak Perlman!❤️🎻🌹
Brilliant!! Love Mr. Perlman's violin playing! Masterful. (That's a close call for wiping the stray hair off the bow at 4:13 and getting back to the string in time for the time signature change at 4:15!!)
I lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooooooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvve him. I love it. this is one of my favorites my him. great. simply great. he is the MASTER of that violin.
Thanks for posting this. Knocks me out of my chair to see and hear Mr. Perlman do his magic. I had to check the playback speed to be sure it hadn't been re-set to 1.5 times normal. I played fiddle five decades performing and recording w orchestras and rock, country, folk, bluegrass groups. But in the grand scheme of things I was a "utility" player, and had a lot of fun. There are so many levels to all this. (sigh) The great thing I finally realized --- you could play and practice for hundreds of years, and never exhaust all the possibilities, always discovering haunting and intoxicating melodies and rhythms and harmonies. There are so many ways to spend your time, and so many astounding people to inspire you along the way! A great time to be alive.
- Teacher: How relaxed is your right hand while playing violin?
- Perlman: YES
I know exactly what you mean!
Haha I love this comment!! As a wind player, I want relaxed hands too :0

you are right

Good idea
What a lovely gesture, Molly.
As a violin player, I can tell you that the introduction part may sounds “easy” but actually not at all. It requires difficult bowing control techniques and he just did a superb job.
Everything on the violin that is not played fast, seem easy, but it is hard AF.
@@JuanSB827 everything played well on the violin seems easy but is actually incredibly hard*
There fixed it for you ;)
Perlman always does a superb job.
The funny thing is despite how impressive it seems, its often easier to play the faster bits
a wonderful few of his hands. and you would never know his bow crosses strings
This rendition is arguably the best I have ever heard - and I have heard it played by all the violin giants of the Golden Age. Mr. Perlman exceeds himself here, capturing the Gallic spirit beautifully. It's all here folks! No need to look further. After this rendition, few violinist today should dare to record it.

janine jansen's is better imo
Labo Paris ouest med résultat
Mes rrdiltz
Heifetz?
I prefer Michael Rabin's recording.
This piece will likely never be played this well again. The magic is at full strength here.
You know you have nailed it when you can make a technically challenging piece like this sound fluid, crisp, and easy. The best rendition of this masterpiece that I’ve ever heard.
Heifetz,Augustin,Bomsiri n Young Christian Li...all fantastic ......maybe Heifetz mist remarkable
What a terrible performance! Nothing like his TH-cam "fails" performance which was just absolutely mesmerizing!
It is an unfortunate oversight that the composer's name, Camille Saint-Saens, isn't even mentioned.
Camille who?
@@thejils1669you know, gonzo’s chicken
No doubt it was deliberate. Poor Saint-Saens never gets the respect he deserves, one of the greatest performers, universal prodigies and musical humourists in history. I blame Wagner.
this is still the best rondo capriccioso rendition i have ever heard. it just has that extra something.
L how are you alive? Didnt Kira kill you?
EXO-Ls really know what good music is,,
Heifetz in my opinion has the best rendition for sound, Perlman has the most soul
I personally like Ray Chen’s better, but this is amazing too

A genius ! Best violinist ever ! Can stop listening to him !

Fantastic violinist. No words can express the brilliance. The orchestra however is behind in so many areas
he makes it look so natural and effortless
He's so relaxed 0-0 This sounds so amazing
Me encanta su i terpretacion de esta magnifica obra de Camile Saint Saens
0:02 , 1:42 ;
First time I got an ad for Itzhak Perlman's Masterclass before watching one of his vids. Feels satisfying.
Camille Saint-Saens has got to be my favourite composer honestly. I love so much of his work.
he plays that violin to drip those notes like fluid...with skillful melody...beautiful, simply beautiful.
This man is a tamed beast, so powerful yet serene, this is pure tranquility, brilliant masterpiece played perfectly!
What a find! I have loved this piece since i was a teenager and it's become my favourite piece. To hear Itzhak Perlmann performing it is like heaven.
He loves, embraces, hears every note.
Currently learning this piece but after seeing the great Mr.Perlman.... I could never do it justice.
same but we can try !
Une oeuvre géniale, d'un compositeur génial, interprétée par un musicien génial, c'est génial !
There are countless concert pieces for the violin. But this one is THE one. Unrivaled.
here I am watching Mr. Perlman play brilliantly....again. I love it
this man is natural player not a machine thats what i like about him :D
20 000h this guy said!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Don't scare them so ...

❤Браво, Перлман! Лучшее скрипичное исполнение Мендельсона🙏🙏🙏🔥
I thought Perlman might have been overrated, or he’s just one among the best violinists; but I was wrong. He is awesome.
He is truly awesome! His sound is the very best! It is clear and without any scratchy tones
0:53 holy shit that looked so flawless when it’s hard
I saw Itzhak in Australia in the mid 90's with the Royal Phil from memory - my first exposure to a world class soloist. incredible talent
Hasta aqui, esta es la mejor interpretacion que he escuchado de esta hermosa pieza.
Even the pixels on my computer have a hard time keeping up with him! This is art.
Breathless! My dream is that my three year old son will someday love this instrument.
Laura Andujo does he
It has been a while, I wonder what happened.
Perlman and Camille Saint-Saëns; what a beautiful Sunday morning! Thanks!
At this time, Itzhak Perlman looked so much like Schubert! Love them both deeply. And this masterpiece of Saint-Saëns too. Thanks for this moment, Abner Silva.
Itzhak is a genious,the way he is playing that piece is unbelievable,it makes me cry,there is such an emotion...
I love watching Perlman!

Unsurpassable, magnificent. Thank you, maestro Perlman.
Wow! Wow!! Wow!! A-mazzzzz-ing performance!!! Grew up with my aunt playing this and Love It!!
Great violist in the world. I love his sounds.
Thank you very much so beautiful sounds.
Itzak Perlman, Il più Grande di tutti i tempi 👏👏👏
This music is a manifestation of the eternal spirit! Bow!
You are great, Master Itzhak!!!!
Play and make life more beautiful!!!!
Warsaw is bowing!!!!
it's beyond a perfect masterpiece! he is trully gifted.
I remember him so well playing with such mastery in the 70/80's. It was breathtaking and what an inspiration.
I am moved with the tone of the beautiful violin❣️❤️💕💗
D’une extraordinaire délicatesse et d’une exceptionnelle virtuosité !
Simply beautiful, and so passionate !!! I love all his interpretations !!!
Супер. Благодарю.
This music is divine!how can a human being produce such a fantastic sound but an angel ❤️👌👌

Wow, so much bow control. Perlman is amazing. He plays forte while being so relaxed.

He did the same thing at 5:59!!
Replika brought me here! Beautiful :')

Welp, I teared up. I’ve heard this piece but this was the first time seeing a video performance of it.
Fantastic video, but please do mention the poor composer's name!!! For those who would like to know it is Camille Saint-Saëns.
thank you!
So true , this is stupendously moving.I. Am searching for more of the composer’s gems.
Thank you!
👍👍
Thanks for mentioning the composer but there was nothing poor about Saint-Saens. He was a marvelous composer!
Itzhak Perman is fantastic and Hy is my favorite violinist.I thynk Hy Is Amazing....i like It very much 🎻🌷❤️
Maestro maestuoso grandioso

A master at work.
Hermosa creación de Camille Saint-Saens. Y el Sr Perlman lo ejecuta brillantemente.
Ricci has an absolutely fantastic recording of this. It's in the top five in my estimation, maybe No. 1
this is legend
