That texture at 13:25 is one of the coolest effects I've ever heard! So unique. How does one even come up with that
And probably the least successful on the piano reduction! 😖
Janine Jansen plays Britten's violin concerto spectacularly. Can't stop listening to it. One of my favourite pieces.
you're right !
Britten was an endlessly inventive composer and, for those who don't know this concerto, that's made clear right from the start. What's also made clear is the magical chemistry between Jaarvi and Janine. The wonderful orchestra and the soloist listen to each other all the time and the overall effect is mesmerising. Janine Jansen belongs in the first rank of her generation of violinists. I stagger to think what she still has to offer. Thank you so much to Classical Vault for allowing us to hear this wonderful performance.
I came to this piece after just watching the eponymous documentary on Janine. Judging from your comment, it would be a travesty if you haven't seen it: th-cam.com/video/i6TAz9b_JNA/w-d-xo.html. It's quite an extraordinary film on any terms. This is the first Britten I've heard. If you have any recommendations of his after the violin concerto I'd love to hear them.
@@withaminutetogo I would recommend the War Requiem, Four Sea Interludes from "Peter Grimes", Simple Symphony, Suites for Cello solo, Lachrymae for Viola and piano and his string quartets. Should be a good start :)
Terrific - thanks for this. I will check these out!
@@torterrakart7249 Thanks for this as well.
@@withaminutetogo I watched that documentary several years ago. Janine just captured my heart. I didn’t think much of the writer and the interview with Moore theJames Bond actor that was strange. I listen to OP 61 a few times a week. The start of the documentary watching for her to begin and see the music just grab ahold of her was so very moving for me. I don’t think I had ever listened to a soloist violinist before that point. I’m old and mostly bedridden and it opened up a new world for me and I’m so grateful for that. Now I love this music. Jeanine’s chamber music is also something that I also love. She is carried away by the music and interacts with the other musicians by those big beautiful eyes. She is a treasure. I also love Hillary Hahn among others. I’m 73 and this old dog has learned a new Trick. Appreciation for classical music a gift from God.
The more I listen to Britten's music, the more I appreciate his genius! Beautifully played by this artist!
Like me. :-) I started 2 years ago with "Peter Grimes"....since then.... LOVE ;-)
Takes one to know one.
Me too. No idea why I took so long.
I never realized that Britten was such a strong melodist.This music reminds me of The Mendelssohn Violin Concerto. How come it is so infrequently played? Probably because it is so difficult. It looks like it pushes the violinist to the limit. Thanks Janine Jansen for a stellar performance
It is so rarely played in part because of the old central european ( i.e.Austro-Germanic ) prejudice that has sadly afflicted them for far too long.They have a very myopic musical appreciation.
Great post Julie. Interesting and useful to know. Thank you.
Julio. So sorry for the typo!
Artur Korotin Where did you found this information about heifetz
@peter feltham. Completely agree. The good news is that things are now changing and composers outside the Germanic sphere (other than the most obvious of course) are at last being heard more frequently but we still have a long way to go. Carl Nielsen, for example, one of my favourites, is at last being recognized as the great symphonic composer that he was.
This goes straight into the heart, this kind of singing on the violin. And the way she is connecting frases and keeping the tension throughout the whole piece, it is so moving…at the end of the piece it is like she climbs up along the e-string into the sky towards heaven where is no limit but complete peace, it is very moving again.
One of the very best performances I have heard. The soloist is truly magnificent, but kudos to Paavo Jarvi for the best accompaniment ever. He is an underrated conductor. I have never heard him give a less than excellent performance!
So ein inneres Kraft beeinflusst ganze Orchester zum höchsten Leistungen, eine bemerkenswerte Frau.
What a treat this work is and how brilliantly played by Janine, Paavo and the stylish Parisians.
This is one of the early works by Britten that got him written off by the mainstream London critics as "a clever clever European Modernist", too like Hindemith, Stravinsky, Prokofiev, or heaven forbid Schoenberg and Berg.
The wanted more Elgar, or if it had to be very contemporary then nothing more radical than Waltons Façade.
However, had they bothered to listen with open ears, they would have also heard the most lyrical near-quotes from the 1st movement of Brahms' violin concerto - study Janine's delicious entry at 4:24, after the typically Britten-esque brass, percussion and pizzicato string gestures. Delicious indeed.
To play with such sustained intensity for 30 min - that is beyond comprehension by average mortals like us - she is a living work of sublime art!
Love andrea
This piece I will hear as I lay dying, thinking back at my life, the highs and lows, and sigh a good sigh, as I float away to heaven.
Nocturnal..played by Bream of course.
Thanks to the fabulous performance!!!
Poeta!
Absolutely phenomenal performance. I never tire of watching this.
It is the first time I've heard this concerto, I'm simply overwhelmed by the music and the performance. Thanks for sharing!!
i am absolutely obsessed with this performance.
Jansen played Britten's violin concerto with the New York Philharmonic just last week. Paavo Jarvi conducted. He says that even when she plays with an orchestra, Jansen approaches the music like a chamber musician.
"It is such a wonderful quality," Järvi says, "And it's a rare quality, because very often soloists sort of stand there and do their thing and everybody else has to, basically, accompany. With her, it's always give and take, and it's always flexibility. It's never business as usual." -- NPR Weekend Edition Saturday
Eliezer Pennywhistler It's always something special to listen to and watch her play. She's so in tune with the music 🎶!
I had the chance to listen to it live at royal albert hall. what can i say, it's a magical piece played by a magical interpret in a magical place. perfection does exist.
I'm blushing-me, perfect? C'mon! But anyway, thanks for the compliment!😆🤙
I was front prom row in this concert! :D I was so good :)
I love Mrs.Janine Jansen !
I may die happy now... I love you, Janine!!! Follower since 2000!
25:15 - 25:38 utterly astonishing technique!!
Oh yeah
But... that's easy compared to many other passages in this really challenging concerto 😰
Literally an exhilarating watch and listen. Britten and Jansen were made for each other.
Perhaps the most beautifully haunting piece I've ever had the pleasure of hearing.
A great work. I first heard this performed 45 years ago, with Erich Gruenberg as the soloist. Because of the difficulty of the solo part (Britten even included a simpler version of the harmonics passage in the scherzo in the score), the work was rarely performed until about 10 years ago.
I performed it with Eric G about 45 years ago.... To be honest..I felt it was technically a little beyond him as well....quite rough around the edges. Janine is much more over this.
l'ho ascoltato a occhi chiusi senza lasciarmi affascinare dalla bellezza della Jansen ma mi congratulo per la purezza e espressività della sua esecuzione
It is my first listening to Jansen and I must say I was floored, moved beyond expectation. A wonderful concerto played brilliantly by Jarvi and the Orchestre de Paris, but Jansen's performance was special. Her performance for sure will be the definitive one for this piece.
Have a listen to Ida Haendel if you have not yet. I appreciate her rendition at least as much, if not more :O! Wonderful piece of music.
Try Augustin Hadelich with Detroit.
-- Très grande performance. La pureté des notes de Janine Jansen est exceptionnelle. --

I have to confess I never even knew he wrote a violin. I've lived Peter Grimes for quite a while but now I think I'll pursue his compositions. Love this.
try sinfonia da requiem
I find that many of the less melodious violin concerti that i dismissed in my youth, i now find riveting when performed by Janine Jansen. She brings such charisma and interpretive artistry to her performances, she draws you in quite like no other. Another example would be the Prokofiev 2nd concerto. I feel, however, that even with her hypnotic charm, i still cannot bring myself to appreciate the Alban Berg. Students of the violin may disagree but i am no longer a student.
It's okay if you don't like Berg. But if you say you don't like Sarasate, now that's unforgivable.
Es fehlen einem die Worte -
Unbeschreiblich tief und beschwörend.
Der Kampf des 20. Jahrhunderts spiegelt sich -
Stunning performance.
absolute amazing!
00:00 1. Moderato con moto - Agitato - Tempo primo -

❤❤❤
One of my top 5 violin concerts. Maybe on my top 3?
Listen to K.Szymanowski's.Janine has played it!
breathtaking! thank you!
I love this concerto so much! Janine Jansen is simply phenomenal. God bless her!
Beautiful!!! Amazing!! Bravo!!!
Amazing performance of an incredible piece of music!
This is at the top of ANY scale. Thank you for downloading this.
That was so beautiful, it made me tear up a couple of times! Loved every minute of this video!
A wonderful performance and this is such a powerful concerto too. When it's this well-performed it's a pleasure to listen. A really fine video of Britten's only violin concerto.
Brilliant performance!!!
I never but stumble here afore, though I do ever relish the Great Ben, and yet again I reel before his unpredictable, soaring, round the corner, lyrical majesty. Is special.
Großartig Performance,danke ♫♪♥
Stunning.
absolutely perfect!
Amazing and flawless performance! Janine Jansen is my inspiration! 💗💜💖💛💞❤️😍😘
It's a pleasure watching her play. And her work is tops.
an outstanding violinist and an outstanding performance.
Wow,FANTASTIC!!!
Thanks!
such a brilliant composition. not sure i've heard a musician before who has the capability of continually feeding power & emotion into each note and progressively extenuating that dynamic thru the duration of this piece. to even grasp the concept (as a musician) is one thing, but to hear the power of the compositions harmonic value (as Janine Jansen clearly does - as she pulls all possible emotion from each sustained note, only to extend and expand it into the next phrase) as Britten plays with tension & release (I think) represents the ultimate in Composer writing such inventive conceptual harmony only to be matched with such a gifted performer capable of hearing, interpreting and (possibly) expanding the power of Britten's work. sorry for the windy statement but I am in awe of this woman's mastery.
Just listened to this piece for the first time here (after being on something of a Janine binge of late) and I have to agree with your comment. This sums up exactly what I felt about this performance; well put.
thank you, 'withaminutetogo'. this (artist/performance/composition) is such a wonderful example of why 'Art' exists in the human condition.
I love so much to hear your wonderful play and hope one day I can attend
the orchestra directly with my family. Thank you for download all your
play in the youtube.
God Bless you always.
An exquisite performance of this magnificently intense piece. Wonderful.
Truly beautiful. Thank you Janine Jansen.
Stellar performance!!!!
Brava Janine!!!!
This is a masterpiece!
Benjamin Britten with Janine Jansen and Paavo Järvi - what a wonderful combination.
I have never been keen on a lot of Britten s music, but the beautiful sexy Dutch violinist interpretation of this concerto , has shed new light for me. It has created an earworm for me, especially the first movement which was used for the TV series, Sherlock Holmes. I say again it Janine s playing that speaks to me more than Britten's music.
This concerto reminds me of some Soviet music, like that of Prokofiev and Shostakovich. I can hear some Walton too. I am already a big fan of Britten's music(Operas, songs string chamber music etc.) and I wouldnt have guessed this was by him by just listening to it, but compelling piece nonetherless. Thank you for making this wonderful performance accessible.
Bella Janine! Qué dulzura y talento. Maravillosa!!!
Britten was still young and not fully himself when he wrote that concerto, but we cannot deny him an obvious original melodic genius which turned afterwards in a different way (probably under the influence of operas and human voice?). In other words, the "great" works of Britten must not reject this concerto in the shadow. It is a pure jewel. There is much science, much intuition and much music in that concerto.Note that there is a passagaglia, a form that Britten was to use consistently.
Yes to this being a work where Britten is still finding his voice. But what a voice that's already there, with so much to say worth listening to! So many violin concertos written by older composers don't show anything like the same technical confidence and powerful communicability. .
I fully agree with you.
IN addition, and more technically, I should have added the sense of orchestration. The orchestra is not at all considered as a neutral accompanying instrument, a sort of "super-piaano", if I dare to say so. The choice of tumes and instruments is absolutely essential in that music.
The 2nd movement has a Schostakovich flair to it.
This is my favourite violin concerto. I am probably the only who hears argentine (tango) influences.
She's the best in these years.
It's amazing ...
lLike the most of of you I am overwhelmed by this music. I have listened to Brittens Cello Suites and Sinfonia da Requiem, and then Four Sea Interludes live in Umeå, Sweden. But I´ve never heard his Violin Concerto. Until now. Guess if Im impressed? And Janine Jansen is my favourite violinist, together with Hilary Hahn. Can it get better? No.
One of the best. JJ.
Une très belle réalisation, oui, vraiment! Un grand concerto joué par une très grande interprète
breathtaking !!!
Breathtaking!
excelente concerto o som que esta solista tira do seu Violino simplesmente fantástico parabéns para todos
Love Britten but never heard this piece. Benjamin Schmid will play this where I work, and I am very excited to hear this live.
Brava! Absolutely amazing realization of this concerto!
Comecei a ouvir meio desinteressado, meio a contragosto ... Quando me dei conta, estava fascinado pela beleza incrível dessa obra e das performances de JJ, PJ e a Orquestra de Paris. Obras-primas produzem esse efeito e arrebatamento ....
Magnificent
A riveting masterpiece - I hadn't known I was going to listen to it but once it started (after my selection of John Shirley-Quirk singing "Tit for Tat") I simply HAD to listen. A glorious performance of some glorious music which gets better and better each time I hear it. Deserves double the number of views but this is not bad for a 20th Century violin concerto.
...wunderbares Konzert - einzigartige Solistin ... kongeniale Begleitung ... Dank fürs Posting
Now I can't get enough of it . Left the Carter violin con to come here this again . Jansen is too magical in this . WOW! Imiust hear her Sibelius,Szymanowsky and Shostakovich now! I know she plays the Ligeti ! Bolcolm violin con should be the most popular violin concerto with Stravinsky and Prokofiev 1&2 . I'm gonna check out Jansen in my oher fave violin works . This is incredible unforgettable but quiet , mysterious music ! The 2nd movement is a surprise after the heart felt ,gloriously soulful 1st movement .
A masterpiece by Britten. until 2010 hardly given any performances.
Die Tiefe dieser Partitur ist lebensgefährlich ......
Thank you for uploading this. I was there and this brings back wonderful memories. 2013 September 1. Royal Albert Hall. BBC Proms. l’Orchestre de Paris, Paavo Järvi, Janine Jansen. Arvo Pärt: Cantus in Memoriam Benjamin Britten; Britten: Violin Concerto; Berlioz: Overture Le Corsaire; Saint-Saëns: Symphony No.3 in C minor (Organ); Bizet: Galop from Jeux d’enfants, Farandole from l’Arlesienne
... no hay secretos para Janine con su
violín. Entereza y carácter, nos hablan
de su madurez y su brillo. Ella & Jarvi,
empatía plena.
Resultado: versión espléndida ...
I’m in tears
!Y es tan bella¡
Wow, that ending...
She is the Queen! 27:29 and on tears you appart
Bravo!
E' sempre un'intensa e infinita affascinazione, tutto!
I'm not generally a Britten fan but this has captivated me utterly. Surely, one of the greatest late-romantic violin concertos and the performer here is transcendental. I assume this is the revised version, first performed in the UK in the 1950s, by Bronislav Gimpel with the RPO, under Beecham.
Once again, Janine Jansen delivers. She is tops, always so communicative with her ensemble. Props to Paavo Järvi and Orchestre de Paris.
Awesome violinist..
She is so painfully good. I just bought her album sublime.
Exciting work and exciting violinist.
Grazie ❤. Bravissimi. Meravigliosa la violinista. Buona giornata.
Wonderfol performance🎻💫💫💫🎶🎶🎶🎼🎼🎼💖💖💖🎀
Fabulous impassioned.
...lookng forward to seeing Janine Jansen at Carnegie Hall this Spring...she's featured in 5/6 concerts this season...perspectives.
Mesmerising.
A great piece of music. The first movement reminds me of Miklos Rosza's violin concerto.
Molto bello
I discovered Britten about 45 years ago;,at age 33; he opened for me a long-cherished possibility to compose. To me he is one of the three or four greatest composers of the Twentieth Century, and this one of the great violin concerti of that century, rivaled only by those of Shostakovich, Berg, Bartok (his Second) and maybe Prokoviev (his Second).
Janine Jansen è straordinaria!
Maravillosa interpretación para concierto de violin genial
