Thank you for watching!
Her Bach concertos recording is just amazing and I've always had deep respect for her. Turns out that she is also a really interesting person as well! Thank you for this interview!
Thank you so so much for this meaningful feedback-made our day ✨🙏
I like what she said about the perfection is just for herself, that the audience doesn’t really care about technicalities or if she hits all the right notes. That takes some pressure off my performance anxiety.
It's a really wonderful message indeed! Thanks so much for writing to us and for watching! -zsolt
It never surprises me that the really great performers are so down to earth with no ‘edge’ to them.
They seem to be always searching for something greater than themselves with humility.
Thanks for this! Yes, we really love exploring and witnessing this as well--one of the delightful sides of bringing these episodes to you and our audience! Thanks so much for watching and for being in touch with us--zsolt
@@Living-the-Classical-Life thanks for your reply!
I will certainly watch many more episodes of The Classical Life- very interesting and carefully chosen questions
Bravo to you!
@@richardforshaw8479 We look forward to hearing from you and to hearing your thoughts! Warmest wishes, zsolt
@@Living-the-Classical-Life I will do my best to offer a thoughtful response!
Cheers,
Richard.
A multi-talented artist. How often is a person superb on violin AND piano?
Indeed! 😅✨
That performance of the Brahms double is FANTASTIC. BOTH of you played with a transcendent beauty I don't find in other performances of this Brahms masterpiece. Unforgettable.
And personally, Julia seems such a wonderful beautiful person with good values.
Thank you, Julia, for sharing your gifts with us.
That girl is truly the pride of mankind. So German in her behaviour, so incredibly gifted, so smart and clear-minded.
Ms. Fischer plays in a league of her own.
A professional musician with violin and piano.
Reminds me of Mozart. He achieved that feat too.
What a wonderful woman. I have seen other interviews with her and this confirms it. Apart from being an amazing musician, she also seems very intelligent.
Thanks for sharing this great conversation with us.
Thanks for this truly meaningful feedback for our team--we're so grateful to have you along, and it makes our work all worth it. PS Nice A380 in your current avatar--are you a fellow aviation enthusiast? -zsolt 🙂
@@Living-the-Classical-Life Thanks. Yes I am a huge fan of everything aviation and plane related. Glad to learn that you are too 👍🏿👍🏿
@@packer812 The one plane I've not managed to fly yet is the A380--I better hurry up!! -zsolt
Thank you! Dedication to her music. Devotion to her children. Beautiful.
Julia... what a great musician, full of sensibilty and intelligence!
Je l'admire beaucoup...😊
What a wonderful soul. Talented beyond belief, beautiful and perfect English.
Thanks so much for watching and for being in touch! ✨
I've always admired Julia Fischer's playing and she just feels at home on stage. (Opposite of me, I find the stage really scary).
It shows how much she loves music and does it for the service of music.
Thank you so much for watching and for sharing your beautiful thoughts with us! ✨🙏
Wonderful. In this case specially the issue of "perfection". I will always support "Living the Classical Life"!
We are truly grateful to you on so many levels! Thank you for making our day ✨🙏🥂
Wonderful interview. She is a great artist that understand all the aspects of music from the performers view, Violin and piano, but understand the perception of the audience and what they like and feel when she plays. She is witty and a deep thinker. Thanks so much for sharing this with us, Living the classical live 👏👏
We are so grateful to you for watching-really thrilled you enjoyed it! Please keep in touch -zsolt ✨☕️
I wish these interviews were longer! I was hoping to hear more about her life combining family and career
We’re so glad you enjoyed this so much! We covered many more subjects in the conversation but edited for the best material and flow ✨ We are so grateful to have you as a follower!
@@Living-the-Classical-Life What about publishing full unedited versions on a Patreon or second account for us who can't get enough? :)
@@swdmarcswd we’re actually literally having a board meeting today about how to structure a Patreon! We will let you know-please keep in touch too ✨
I am not interested in family and personal life in these intervjues, it is all about music and how to handle this music. So I think "Living the Classical life" has a grip on this that seems adequate. Thank you!
It's great to hear from well-rounded musicians like Julia Fischer. Thanks for bringing us this interview. I was much more successful in my piano studies than in the eight years of violin lessons I took, but she's inspired me to think about getting out the violin again.
Great to hear this-and wonderful to hear from you as always! ✨
I love the sound of her violin. Now I know it’s a very old one from 1749. It’s interesting to see the different characters of different musicians, Julia sounds very isolated and understandably so.
That violin deserves to be played the beautiful way she does it
Extaordinary ,example of the music and beautiful woman. I love you Júlia Fischer
For me, the best violinist alive!
Extraordinary interview. Each one of these opens up a new aspect of what’s possible in a human being to grow with music. Honestly it’s like something mysterious is transmitted to the listener. Julia so easily shares what it is like to be this incredible genius; violin and piano. I’ve just been reading about Harold Bauer and could not believe this was possible. But here she is. I’m absolutely in awe of her.
Wow--totally speechless with this amazing feedback--thank you so much!! -zsolt
Thank you for this great interview. Such meaningful questions, and insightful answers from Julia Fischer.
So glad you enjoyed this one--we are so happy to hear from you--please keep in touch!
❤❤❤ Einfach nur bezaubernd, wundervoll und 100% perfekt! ❤❤❤💖🌹💖🌹💖🌹💖
Nice self-portrait of a great musician who I have loved since those beginnings. Julia loves concertante music which led to her recordings for Bach. An unparalleled treat to date. And off we go for a great artistic adventure! My sincere thanks for all the joys Julia gave me during her concerts. *Lucien*
Thanks for sharing this-we are so happy that she indeed brings so much joy. Thank you for watching! ✨
Always happy to see your episodes! Congratulations 🎉
Thank you for your incredible support, dear Andrea! We are looking forward to the release of your upcoming incredible episode of Living the Classical Life as well~
I am completely inspired by this wonderful interview. The questions and responses could not have been more informative. Thank you so much.
Thank you Zsolt and Mrs. Fisher. This was interesting and so pleasant to watch. 🌷🌷💙💖
Ein sehr schönes und interessantes Gespräch ! Vielen Dank fürs teilen - ich habe es genossen 👋🙏
We thank *you* so much!! ✨🙏✨🙏✨
I notice you didn't ask about stage fright. She seems so supremely confident that I wonder how she would have answered.
In fact I did! But in the end we decided to keep the narrative focused on the best and most original parts-we are getting a Patreon set up soon in which we plan to offer some segments that were good from each episode but didn’t quite tie into the narrative we hoped to construct. I’ll have to in the meantime try to remember what her answer was-we filmed this two years ago ✨
@@Living-the-Classical-Life Thanks for letting me know!
🙂 danke schöne.
Thanks to you as well! ✨🙏
Just an example of the music Julia is talking about, Brahms violin sonata nr 3 in D-minor. Sorry to say I couldn´t find it on TH-cam with Julia Fischer, but here is another wonderful example of this music: th-cam.com/video/hdmKH5AFdFY/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for sharing this! 🙏✨
Very beautiful person
My only complaint is that this interview is too short, Zsolt!
We are so glad you like it so much!! There’s an old saying in showbiz: “always leave ‘em wanting more” 😅✨ -zsolt
Julia, my lovely Julia. Baby. Sweetheart. My love to the end of time. 💖💖💖
Julia, meine liebe Julia. Baby. Schatz. Meine Liebe bis ans Ende der Zeit. 💓💓💓
Julia, mi amada Julia. Bebé. Cariño. Mi amor hasta el fin de los tiempos.❤❤❤

The special bread recipe colorful. No hidden messages.
But she's perfection.
It’s hard to know how to spell some of the names of the musicians she mentions for the purpose of following up. It would be nice if their names were tagged. E.g. was the conductor she said always created a magical environment every time they performed together?
(((''' Do a German Version, Russian Version, Mandarin Chinese Version and a French Version. Work work Work 5 years))''
"If you want to see perfection you should go to the circus or something. Music is not about that"
Proceeds to be perfect.
Ho hum.
🙂
_-JuliaFischer Such a perfectionist. Where's Hans? Fruit cake. From Anita's send to Choctaw Casino Head of Security office Send 20. Hugs and Kisses.
The Oscar movies event is near friends, what about making this performance become a movie soundtrack? Musicians as Hollywood super stars are my very favorite movies, let her adorable Julia become a Hollywood celebrity, a movie is made of 90 minutes, it's not a TV documentary only an episode just enough to let audience get something very emotional and very special, a nice Julia's touch, think about it, we have to reach the Avatar fantasy profits of seven billion dollars incomes friends, let's do it, let them young movie directors work for you and .. do something trully remarcable, l am the biggest supporter of yours Ok?
We love this idea-they should give you a percentage! ✨👍
Please interview Sarah Chang . Please ~~~~
