The best, the most impressive and by far the most beloved of me, the violin works. It's a feeling in your chest when you're short of breath, your throat grows and tears flow into your eyes. This is music. This is beauty.
I think this very well may be the single greatest violin showpiece of the 19th century. Kogan's smooth, buttery, and powerful playing has the perfect balance of sweetness and richness. The harmonics kill me every time I hear them. The purity, it's like an angel calling. Or the devil.
i’ve watched dozens of videos trying to find the best recording of this piece but i always come back to this recording. the interpretation and phrasing is simply the best. i also like the age of the recording. i think it suits the piece
Ricci always has more air in his tone (more spread out high overtones) and is more even in sound across the strings and positions. Kogan has a more focused sound and doesn't hide the difference in sound the different strings/positions makes. He rather seems to like it :) So this IS Kogan ;)
beautiful. could you give me more information about the piece? for example who plays it? etc.. I love it. it's very pure and full of humanity. Like the auto biography of the composer. thank you
What tuning is this in? The low A at the beginning is ~113hertz instead of 110. Or is this just normal for orchestra because they tune to the hardest instrument? Normally historical tunings are lower and not higher. (1865 is possible that they chose a bit higher key at that point in time, but even then lower is more likely.) I tuned my electric piano to 113 so I could play along.
a lot of old recordings i hear are tuned higher. it could be the audio being slightly distorted or maybe they just liked it that way. either way, it sounds nice

How can a human being achieve such superhuman perfection?
+Abelardo Avendano great
cause they're people. perfection's only perceived.
Practice
Lots of work, daily practice, talent, predisposition. Some excell at concert gongs, others at violin.
Practice
Kogan displays his perfect technique wonderfully.
1:47 that chord from the whole orchestra :O
This piece always gives me goosebumps. This interpretation is also just perfect! Loved it!
The recording quality is superb, so great to be able to hear Kogan's golden tone without much static!
Kogan and Wieniawski! Both are geniuses!
Magnificent piece!!

Beautiful piece ! Thank you so much :)

Perfection, thy name is Kogan.
Be aware future musicians. When there's "brillante" in the title, it means hell difficult for player 😂😂

Lol at 6:55 but hardly noticeable though as the rest of the piece played terrifically.
Hahaha yeah he literally screwed up one single note playing 17 minutes piece 😂 Isn’t that crazy?
I tried play this but it was not like i was expecting
Nice to hear with orchestra. Check out Oscar Han’S version a very talented violinist from Australia
6:28

Leonid Kogan
The bow must be on fire
Who is playing?
Leonid Kogan
16:03 aha moment !

When u see alien cheeks at Area 51 1:49
감동
I will come back and update when I start this piece. My goal is to play it.
How is it going so far?
@fuzzers6233 -- Yeah....Really.....How's that working out for you? Cheers from Acapulco!
Kogan was a miracle from da devil !
why the devil? why not God? does every good violinist have to be associated with satan?
Saint Saens Swan, anyone?
Yesssss!
