Niccolò (or Nicolò) Paganini (27 October 1782 - 27 May 1840) was an Italian violinist, violist, guitarist, and composer. He was the most celebrated violin virtuoso of his time, and left his mark as one of the pillars of modern violin technique.
The Israeli violinist Ivry Gitlis once referred to Paganini as a phenomenon rather than a development. Though some of the techniques frequently employed by Paganini were already present, most accomplished violinists of the time focused on intonation and bowing techniques. Another aspect of Paganini's violin techniques concerned his flexibility. He had exceptionally long fingers and was capable of playing three octaves across four strings in a hand span, an extraordinary feat even by today's standards.
About this recording:
“Even though Markov’s performance of the concertos isn’t live, he keeps you wondering. Big, bold gestures, thrilling leaps from one octave to another-at least one of them tacked on, along with other improvisational gambits that make the performance all the more authentic-spitting staccatos, and in-your-face cantabiles combine to make these adrenaline-laced performances bigger than life.
David K. Nelson called this “one hell of recording” and left it to readers to decide what he meant. I’m not sure whether David liked it as well as I do-and I don’t know whether bargain hunters who pick it up without knowing much about Markov will realize how unusual it is. But I’d agree with David, it’s one hell of a recording (Viotti, Orchestra, and recorded sound all cooperate).” . (excerpt from ‘FANFARE: Robert Maxham’) - เพลง
Alexander has a dramatic way of playing which is very effective and highly endearing. Not so long ago he played some Saint Saens and then played the 24th of Paganini as an encore. After he got done with that left hand pizzicato section, the audience could not help itself and burst into cheers and applause. He nicely acknowledged the spontaneous ovation and then continued with the remaining part. I was not more than six feet away from him. Quite memorable.
I envy you for such a concert. I admire Markov and I would not be able too to stop my applause and ovations at such an event, even if I would have broken the rules of good behavior... :)
Magnifique, le jeu est tout en nuances et rondeurs 🎶💓🎶✨
oh wonderful! that second movement ..its like he has an endless bow. On par with the legendary version of S Ashkenasi (though very different in style...is music not just great)
Thank you, I agree! As Menuhin he was saying... "he will certainly leave his mark on the music-lovers of the world and in the annals of the violin virtuosi".
Если Паганини ,то только. Александр Марков !!!
