27:52 the smile on the young man's face after Kavakos pulls off that awesome bowing is just what I needed to see today :) I know so many violinists that sit in our orchestra and don't show their emotions of joy because they're letting jealousy get the better of them. They sit there thinking "pfft, I could do that..." and I think that's a real shame.
What I love in kavakos is that he has all the technical background to take the risks that any performance needs. He is very risky, all the time he tests his own boundaries. That's why he keeps you on the edge all the time. Amazing.
definitely one of the best interpretation! kept so hard from jumping out of my seat for the whole time. I have to say the orchestra performed absolutely amazing as well.
Pour moi l'une, voir la plus belle des interprétations de cette pièce écrit sous la dictée de Dieu ou de la Nature elle même. Des partis d'un lyrisme, d'une sensibilité indescriptie C'est avec les larmes aux yeux que j'avale la fin du deuxième mouvement.
First like is mine! There is no way out. If you want to hear the king of the instruments you have got to call someone who plays violin for you. Music sounds come to our ears and fill our soul with the most amazing feeling available in all possibilities.
Sibelius himself forbade the performance of it, but it has been played in the public a couple of times, but not very well I think. After Dec 31st, 2027 anyone can play it as much as they want.
Sibelius himself forbid the initial violin concerto ever to be performed. The reason for the existance of the recording of the premier version is that the Sibelius family granted permission, only once...so unfortunately I am afraid there never will be a video taken of published of the original version ....but ofcourse I hope that I’m wrong : )
i don't understand why people don't like clapping after the first movement in pieces like this. i get it if the first and second movements are connected and it's good to keep the continuity, but the first movement in pieces like this or tchaik vc it just feels empty without applause after such an epic performance
It is considered to be sacrilegious to clap in between movements and besides it can also put off the performers who require a great deal of concentration to play. Ever checked out TwoSet violin?
I completely agree. It’s a tradition that came in in the mid 19th C I think. Before that there was clapping between movements so it’s not even a purist’s tradition. There are perhaps some instances where clapping is less appropriate (between movements that have a link or need continuity) but most of the time stone-cold silence isn’t necessary. As a professional orchestral player I welcome it rather than despise it like some audience members do.
@christian violin About "VC" in the title of this video: You might want to consider that not everyone here on TH-cam is sufficiently savvy to know, as you and I and so many others do, that "VC" means "Violin Concerto". As inconvenient -- even downright painful and degrading -- as it surely is for you to have to type fifteen characters instead of just two, many viewers, and especially *potential* viewers, will appreciate your going the extra mile for them. The convention -- de facto if not also de jure -- here on TH-cam is to make video titles lucidly self-contained and self-explanatory. (And thus, by the same token, "Leonidas Kavakos" would be greatly preferred to just "Kavakos".)
what if the conductor said it was ok to do so between mvmt 1 and 2? (just a guess). mvmt 1 packs a punch, it somehow deserves an applause :D and they didn't applaud between 2 and 3 ;)
Undoubtable amazing virtuosity but too much muted energy, and the overall interpretation and impact of the performance didn't provide the intended meanings and depiction of what the composer implemented with the music he created.
27:51 the smile from that young 2nd violinist!
I agree, it's nice to see hey? He looks like he could be the youngest one there!
3:57 this part always hits me

THANK YOU FOR MAKING OUR COUNTRY(GREECE🇬🇷) PROUD.
The second movement is so 🥺🥺🥺..... Sometimes its make me cry
A big BRAVO to Leonidas Kavakos!!! We are proud of him, especially in this harsh days of this pandemic and war-like background!
Breathtaking Leonidas Kavakos and of course Mr. Järvi and his amazing orchestra. The beauty of TH-cam..
I love to hear Kavakos. He is the best
definitely one of the best interpretation! kept so hard from jumping out of my seat for the whole time. I have to say the orchestra performed absolutely amazing as well.
Best Sibelius on TH-cam.
Very nice , mr. Kavakos !!!!
Best Sibelius Ever🤤
Staggeringly gifted. A formidable Paganini among the titans of the violin.
I know the wonderful Vengerov's per
formance. But , Kavakos was just
superb .
Bravo !
Bravissimo !
3:59 the timpani is so epic here, this may be the only performance you can hear the timpani in this part
It's there all right, for instance 1:21
소오름... 정말 최고의 연주
Most powerful Sibelius available.
Sublime Leonidas Kavakos as always!!!! Thank you so much!!!!
This is nothing short of extraordinary
He may not have a extremely dynamic phrasing as some other interpretations did but his ability to sustain the tension in a phrase is so mesmerizing
a beatifull work for acompaning wth Paris orchestra, mr Jarvi !!!!
greek god of violin
LingLing
Love your comment!!! 😍🤩
What a LEGEND!
Who’s waiting for Eddy’s 3m Sibelius drop?
What do you mean exactly?
@@liamnevilleviolist1809 the two set Violin perhaps?
@@yijunzhao1447 I thought so, but does that mean he'll only play it if the TwoSet channel get 3mil subscribers?
@@liamnevilleviolist1809 Ah we hope so
Eddy nailed 3m sub sibelius 🤘🤘🤘 brett also
The most difficult instrument plays like a bird singing, we are very lucky to hear your divine playing!
11:40 Unpopular opinion: My favorite part from this concerto. Thank you mr. Kavakos for this amazing performance. ❤
Пожалуйоднаизлучшихинтерпоитаций, безизлишнейдерганности, особенново2ойчасти.
Kavakos is the master of this composition. He was the co-winner (with Ilya Kaler) in Sibelius Violin Competition in Helsinki 1985.

Paavo Järvi’s face at 30:09 says it all. I don’t my know why I laughed so hard when I saw that.
I guess he knew this was music history in the making
Eine meiner Lieblingsaufnahmen dieses Violinkonzertes !! Thank you for sharing this great performance !!

Viajou nesse comentário aí em fera kkkkk
Amazing performance, thank you for this! Virtuostic, intimate, passionate, musical.
This concerto is played by many violinists but I like Kavakos 2nd movement the most.
Holy moly the bowings
Превосходное исполнение !!! Браво испанскому музыканту и огромная ему благодарность, что так тратит себя ради шедевров музыки !!!
Он грек, а не испанец
@@uniqueflower6216 возможно это было адресовано одному из оркестрантов, который испанец)))
do like his bow hand knuckle bones as my perfect idealistic, the exact control of intensity on the string.
TH-cam vandalizes music with the ad interferences ...‼️
i wish there was a video of the original version of Sibelius. Kavakos's CD recording of it is awesome. not sure if anyone else even plays it.
th-cam.com/video/kNoiwSZLX3c/w-d-xo.html this?
@@sak_1017 Yes, but he was wishing for a video of it.

31:48 and that, ladies and gentlemen, is why you should SAVE YOUR BOW
I think he can be forgiven for that
@@Dennis_The_Dude yes very true. still an excellent performance but not everyone is perfect
A very nice moment that remind us he's still a human, despite being such a magical musician.
Thank you for fixing the audio.
Brilliant

I wanna see a video off him playing the original version from 1904, but there’s is not video on TH-cam just the audio and on Spotify ):

so so so hardcore holy shit I love this interpretation
III x 6 + E: 1:59

29:03 Sibelius went full Final Fantasy mode
Muy bueno..Sonido? el mejor..

Keon Sagara - totally agree. The finale of the Allegro moderato was so good it deserved even more than the applause it received [16:31].
After I hear all the superve playing of Sibelius, I come back to Heifetz to fully satisfied.
SIMP THE SIBELIUS
Finally a comment coming from the TwoSet fandom. Hi
@@arvindiyer1649 hello there
woah, twoset is everywhere!!!
28:25 goosebumps.. holy moly...
Entièrement d'accord avec vous , goosebumps..👏💝
Sono in estasi........non mi svegliate vi prego 🙏🏼
Sogni d’oro! 😊
What a sensitivity…
Does the violin he is using seem shorter than normal?
🔥
Bad coordination between orchestra, conductor and soloist at the end of the first movement around 15:18. Still, AMAZING performance!!
yeah but given how chaotic that part originally is, personally I wouldn't mind lol
geil
just wanna know how this piece is like and wait for Eddy

orchestra seems bit slow...
That ad placement is absolutely craptastic - completely ruined a perfectly enjoyable listening experience.
wow Vladimir Putin conducting!
They clapped between movements 😶
