This was at a time where performance etiquette was such that you didn't dare make a sound while the performance was going on. Sadly we have lost some of that etiquette today
The soft tone that heifeitz produced during the first expressive passage in the high position is brilliant, i remember my teacher taught me most people will tend to stress the high notes instead due to the hand being too tense
Observe carefully that every time Heifetz repeats a line, he plays it differently. Different fingerings, positions and tonal colors, sometimes even changing the way he ascends and descends across the strings.
The audio is from a later performance, in a studio. The older, live recording was even better, apart from the technology of the time not quite being as good as with the studio equipment.
how come no one has made any comment about the little violin surviving Heifetz's brutal abuse??? I mean seriously, this violin deserves some sort of award for getting through all the aggressive playing Heifetz put it through in this clip alone XD
Sorry for triggering a controversy.I was doubting and kidding about wieniawski who was truly an extradinary violinist and composer.I am not willing to offend anybody mentioned in the comment.
I don’t get it. Is it just me or does this clip sound off? Some of the notes sound really off, I would’ve thought they were mistakes, but here th-cam.com/video/TB43WLLN6ag/w-d-xo.html This looks like the exact same performance but it sounds much better.
Just did some research... the audio here is his 1950 recording of this piece and not the live performance. Of the 3/4 recordings he made of this piece, maybe it isn't his best but still greater than the rest of us by a mile! The video you linked is of the live concert, showing how Heifetz was even better live than in the studio! Genius!!
@@cristiandesaviolin You are right. This is a dubbed over recording. There's no applause at the end. The live one is so much better. As Milstein put it, what Heifetz does in live performance is just incredible.
The look on his face. is legit "this is to easy... yawn* let me just play if faster then everybody so that I can play something else in the concert later..."
Prihoda played it faster. Very early recording so the audio quality is low but legend has it that Heifetz was jealous of Prihoda’s technical abilitues and articulation. Even in the cloudy static of an old recording Prihoda pronounces every note at superspeed! m.th-cam.com/video/27JMguUN1_I/w-d-xo.html
@NØP3 Her video Crystallize has 245 million views. That's her own composition of her own music and own dance choreography plus of course exceptional violin skills. The most viewed Heifetz video has 2 million views of him standing still grimacing playing someone elses work. Of course you can argue Heifetz is a technically better player, and I wouldn't disagree. But Lindsey Stirling is a better all round performer and more relevant to today's generation.
@@PreservationEnthusiastwow someone is able to get peoples attention, okay then cardi b is a better musician than all of them… honestly just shut your trap you troll
@@georgedeneff7641 It's not Heifetz playing. Quite a few notes were squeaked and crushed. Heifetz doesn't do that. He is much cleaner. It's still very good but not him... either that or he was having a very off day.
« You didn’t see any problems with re-dubbing »… the fact is that this version has errors in it, while the live version is almost perfect and much more vivid. I don’t see any interest doing that. The charm of the live is the charm of the live. Anyway.
The old robot played too fast and swallowed some notes lol Itzhak Perlman is unbeatable in these kind of pieces, technically and musically, putting the right soul in it.
Well, what we see is a musician. He plays extremely fast, perhaps faster than anybody who has ever played. And yet, he plays musically. He uses phrasing, his vibrato is lush, he never repeats a line in the same dynamic, and above all, he has a fantastic sound. Even playing at the upper reaches of his bow he still has a rich, textured sound that bursts with life and separates all the greats from the merely average. I think maybe you are one of those who sees his stern face and let’s that affect your impression of his playing. So, to that I say (and I’ll quote Ivry Gitlis for this one), “close your eyes for God’s sake!”.
Hauptsache schnell.... ;-( die Mittelteilen könnte man schon mehr geniessen, für mich zu stressig, selbst bei zuhören....für mich- NEIN... brauche ich nicht mehr hören... sonst auch (natürlich) viele schöne Sachen (Leichtigkeit, Ton,...)! ;-)
Breathtaking performance. When they showed the audience I was surprised they’re actually there, cause no one was coughing
I'm sure it was not in the US. lol
How can you cough if your breath was taken away?
And they didn't burst into applause immediately after...! Strange....
This was at a time where performance etiquette was such that you didn't dare make a sound while the performance was going on. Sadly we have lost some of that etiquette today
No oné is coughing in concerts now
The BEST interpretation of scherzo-tarantella I've ever heard
His bowing is not only perfect, but also strikingly beautiful.
The 7 people who disliked this are just disappointed that they'll never be able to play like this.
i will take this as a compliment for my playing!! :]
I didn’t dislike but I still won’t be able to play this😢😭
Or some people (like my mom)😡 find this piece annoying sadly
Lol Dounis this sh!t. haha flashy and not great music
But who can lol. Can you? I sure can’t.

That’s because he’s the GOAT! Pag 2nd. Roman Kim 3rd.
Nobody could or will ever match Mr. Heifetz technically.. Not a Chance!
I know that there are, technically, more difficult pieces to play. But JMFC, to play THIS, like THAT? Unreal
Dude - Heifetz is too good.
@@chrislegit3198 perlman is better than roman kim violin isnt about playing fast notes perlmans musicality and tone is much better

I honestly can't, but i call that his masterful interpretation..
Unbelievable fast bow response even the camera could not catch it.
His artistry and virtuosity are on perfectly matched levels: divine.
This is an amazing player: I would watch many videos of him growing up- hoping to play just like him.#idol

I’m sure that violin was more than greatful that someone played it with soul.

В фильме «Люди в чёрном» упоминают, что Элвис - пришелец. Без сомнения, Яша тоже.
ahhhhhhh HE MAKES IT LOOK SO EASY : (
I heard a violinist say on YT that the tarantella wasn't so difficult as soon as you have figured out the bow strokes. But the Polonaise...
I will now send in my application to work on a garbage truck for DPW

Sometimes you need to reverse the playhead and start again. Im not sure that picture and sound are on the same server.

I don't like this grumpy grimacing old codger. Lindsey Stirling is much more enjoyable.
@NØP3 Nope. Lindsey is far more popular today than Heifetz. She composes her own stuff and dances while she plays. Heifetz could not approach it.

That does not sound like Jasha Heifetz to my ears. The violin also does not sound like the Heifetz guarneri. Awesome delivery, none the less
I feel it doesn't sound like him either. It's not clean enough to be Heifetz, and notes were missing..
