Yeah it is truly wonderful... you know they have played for years when that is the level of musicianship. They're telling the Passacaglia "story" together as if *one* narrator :)
This is one of my favorite pieces to listen to, as well as to play, and this particular performance is the best ever! I think I have it on about 5 different VHS tapes, from when it was first aired on TV :-) Truly goes down in history!
Goose bumps. I love the smirks coming from the orchestra behind them..the orchestra was really impressed and they know. It was also wonderful to see Itzhak's expressions near the beginning and the end...he is really enjoying himself and is so at ease with this material. Probably Perlman and Zukerman both near the apex of their careers, just wow.
at 3:10 and 5:20 it sounds like an entire orchestra. They are the most flawless players ever! When you're that good it looks so effortless, but yet the sound coming out is so passionate and inspiring...
I'm not even sure how it's possible to "dislike" this song. It's truly amazing to watch both of them play it. They make it look SO easy and effortless. And by having played this piece myself before, I know first hand that it is NOT easy!
Great performance. I love the recording of this from the Israeli orchestra 60th anniversary gala concert. This piece is a lot of fun, I'm working on the viola part right now. It's a great way to work on staccato and finger work in general.
Great one I´m just trying to play it with my viola teacher at the moment it´s just great and has such a full, loud and just great viola sound, aaaaaaaaaaahhhh;D Just a great piece, played brilliantly by the two guys Perlman and Zukerman, who are really "playing" with this great piece of music! Very much thanks for uploading this video!!!
I didn't realize there was a false ending until I listened to this recording, my violin buddy and I just barreled through. This really set me straight.
Perlman and Zimmerman both blew me when I heard their passacaglias, and I really can't decide which I like better, without hearing perlman play it with a cello and Zimmerman playing it with a viola :)
It is called ricochet, in which you bounce the bow across the string in one direction, therefore making a spicatto sound. It is used in Mendelssohn Violin Concerto and Bazzini's La Ronde de Lutin
@Flaminggential when you are playing on an open string, you con vibrate the note one octave above and it will sound like you're vibrating the open string.
@MrJYTK du pre refers to Jacquelin du Pre arguably the greatest cellist of the 20th century and recorded what is considered the definitive version of the Elgar Cello Concerto. Unfortunately she had multiple sclerosis and died at an early age.
okay i see what you mean! wow!! i'm not sure if i prefer this piece with viola or cello. the zimmermann/brunello "rendition" is probably still my favourite! thanks for sharing wells' though...fantastic!
I have noticed some do, but you have to remember a few things 1)they're old 2) Many of them don't use shoulder rests. They sound good and don't seem to get injured so whatever works Anyway, Heifetz had perfect posture and a lot of great violinists don't have bad posture. I wouldn't recommend you emulate anything hunched over...
@shintosungod : I'm certain there are some different versions available on iTunes (though, I would have to say this is by far the best). There doesn't seem to be a CD available, but you can find DVD's on Amazon that include this performance ^^ By the way, I commend you for being concerned for the music industry, really. I'm sorry I couldn't have been of more help;;
These guys make a violin and a viola fill up a concert hall as if they were a whole orchestra. What talent!
Is it just me, or is their synchronization at 6:04 heart stopping.
Yeah it is truly wonderful... you know they have played for years when that is the level of musicianship. They're telling the Passacaglia "story" together as if *one* narrator :)
very bold and loud indeed!
Am I the only one to think that Zukermann is sounding like a beautiful cello?
Anyway, excellent performance! They are truly the greatest of greatest!
I think more like a beatiful viola than like a beatufil cello but anyway very good performance
Lmfaoooo who is zuckermann?? 😂😂
@@EraLily ur joking right? ahah
Zukerman is a true genius on the viola. It is always touching how he plays the viola
@@franciscomachado7921 i think she's just picking on the extra "N" written there
4:08 sounds incredibly pleasant, listening with headphones. Especially the viola.
That's the Stradivari Tuscan 1690, an absolutely stunning instrument.
A hegedű nem játszik önmagától!
o melhor dueto da historia dessa peça, concerteza esse mesmo acabou virando história...
love this so much! My favourite composition of all time and even better with the greatest players in history!
I am convinced that it is by far the best of perlman's performances.
Also Zuckerman’s in my opinion
This one of the best songs in the world i never thougt of such a splended viola i almost cant belive it same with this song
This is one of my favorite pieces to listen to, as well as to play, and this particular performance is the best ever! I think I have it on about 5 different VHS tapes, from when it was first aired on TV :-) Truly goes down in history!
Whoever disliked this video can not be thinking clearly...souch a beautiful sound. Emotions transferred in to art so beautifully.

The perfect harmony we very much long for but is so hard to find in real world.. Beautiful! 💕💕

i almost cried. so beatiful

no one plays the passacaglia like these two.... just flawless every single time i see them do this... from 1983 all the way to now
Don't worry man, i couldn't play it until my 19th year playing. keep at it, you'll get there. It'll be a wonderful achievement when you do.
Fantastic performance. There's a touching pathos in Perlman's playing.
It's very entertaining to listen to - Itzhak Perlman and Pinkas Zukerman are great!
A++++++++ played precisely and musically!!!!
will watch again!!
i hope i can get tickets to zukermans concert this saturday!! so lucky that hes in my city conducting!
i can't stop listening to this! it's purely divine. oh how i love perlman :)
I love them together Magnificent!!
Love viola!!!
Amazing 🌹. Maestro Ithzak Perlman and E Zukerman... Maestro Ithzak Perlman is together my favorite violinist 🎻 ♥️
Great performance. I love the recording of this from the Israeli orchestra 60th anniversary gala concert.
This piece is a lot of fun, I'm working on the viola part right now. It's a great way to work on staccato and finger work in general.
"a style that has the power to evoke feelings". Fancy words are worth looking up!
Incredibly beautiful!
His Sound is beautiful!!!!!! Magnificent technique!
What a wonderful performance!
Absolute classic! It's a beutiful world we live in. Thank you!
Amazing!!!

Very much thanks for uploading this video!!!
The Julliard School?
Perlman teaches there on Saturdays.
I'm currently in Zukerman's old high school! Which is across the street.
One of my favorite songs from all time!!
A privilege to listen to such virtuosity. Many thanks for posting.
I didn't realize there was a false ending until I listened to this recording, my violin buddy and I just barreled through. This really set me straight.
1:52-2:03
Relaxed, confident, emotionless face, but emotional playing...annnnnd...page turn.
so good. just so good.
Perlman and Zimmerman both blew me when I heard their passacaglias, and I really can't decide which I like better, without hearing perlman play it with a cello and Zimmerman playing it with a viola :)
This piece is super beautiful,thanks handel!!
This is my favorite interpretation, love the soft improvs
@MrCelloman5
Thanks so much. I think I found it. It was played at the Huberman Festival in 1983.
Love the contrast right at the end at 6:05. So little, but so pleasing to hear
Violon et alto en parfaite harmonie
Son d'une pureté irréprochable
Mais que c'est beau Handel quand deux grands seigneurs s'en emparent.
If only we could thumbs up more than once...
they are all geniuses!!!! wish i could play the viola as well as Zukerman does...
Two legendary masters
decided to play this song for fun. So Beautiful! They play it so well.
This is a masterpiece. Thank you so much
Absolutely beautiful!
Beautiful
what? this is the best violinist in the whole world, no lie.
A melancholy piece, yet so touching.
Luck luck luck luck....what beautiful luck to have found this piece today.

Great art. WOW!
Dude! Wow! My friend and I should learn this piece
My Favorite music piece heaver: P The best duo Performas heaver!!!
Harmony is very well played!
MUSIC IS SO BEAUTIFULL BECAUSE IS THE CONEXION WITH NATURE´S ENERGY!
Love to hear drums at 5:38 you realize their mastery when you hear Zukerman’s fourth finger as it’s own percussion
Thx Johan Halvorsen, great work
He only did the adaptation.
amazing,brilliant,wonderful
A treasure to be found in TH-cam!
This Passacaglia is an arrangement of Handel's Harpsichord Suite in G minor, HWV 432.
Best Halvorsen Ever

Невероятно! Maestras! ❤❤
Superlativo ASSOLUTO
@hflvx not sure, but I know that it was part of a string of performances held in Jeruselum during a music festival of some kind. Hope that helps!
loved it, absolutely astonishing
my goodness... perhaps the best ever
amazing
Back here after 15 years! ❤
This is amazing :)
okay i see what you mean! wow!! i'm not sure if i prefer this piece with viola or cello. the zimmermann/brunello "rendition" is probably still my favourite! thanks for sharing wells' though...fantastic!
This is fucking REAL MUSIC..!!!
I have noticed some do, but you have to remember a few things
1)they're old
2) Many of them don't use shoulder rests. They sound good and don't seem to get injured so whatever works
Anyway, Heifetz had perfect posture and a lot of great violinists don't have bad posture. I wouldn't recommend you emulate anything hunched over...
The reason this viola playing is so good is that Pinky is really a violinist! :P
Zuckerman - long time advocate for the performance of baroque music on period instruments
Que hermoso!!!!!

Ой, как классно)
Классно, да! 😊
I wish someone with a tardis could have picked up Händel and taken him to one of the epic performances of Perlman and Zukerman! This is punkrock!
wonderful...
Que manera de tocar son unicos
Maravilloso....
this is brilliant! alexander markov and his dad also play this piece
@MasterSharinganXD It's one of the variations on the theme, but I guess it kind of sounds like Palladio by Jenkins.
@122chucknorris Please upload that! Thank you.
@ragnaroz97 sounds like a beautiful viola. :)
I want to buy the DVD of this! Could someone please please tell me where I can get it???????
Thank you so so so so much!
@CcCharlesW it´s a "pabada" for them!!
Just came here after watching their performance of the same piece in 2017 and 1997.
Then you should see the one in 1978
the same
IMSLP (International Music Sheet Library Project) has it (google)
Bela performace!!!
Immaculate!
yes he was:) it's brilliant
coming back after 11 years :D
