@sprickenville I'm not talking about technical perfection. His technique went a bit sideways as he aged. Obviously. I'm talking about a certain quality to his tone that is very special and unique. I prefer his vulnerable innocence to many of the technically perfect players today.
I think Ray's explanation why Menuhin's interpretation of the romantic bit seems to be dragging makes a lot of sense. Also I think we're just used to hearing this type of phrasing, where there is direction.
Ray, I'm embarrassed to admit, but before these videos of yours I didn't think there was any difference when different people played a particular piece of classical music. I thought all the recordings were the same! Thank you for gently stretching our ears, brains & hearts. 😂❤
I absolutely love these review videos you do, breaking down the thought behind the soloist mind almost. I think Augustin Hadelich would be a great soloist to review because of his emotion and interesting approaches to famous pieces!
absolutely in love with vengerov's musicality, it always shines, especially in romantic pieces. anyways I love these videos on interpretation, keep it up!
Dude your editor is amazing, I dunno how they do it but the perfect additives to accompany your narrative, never too much, never distracting from you, and yet just the right emphasis and "reactions" to add visual flavor with your voice. well done
I was practicing the first movement before my concert and my non-musician friend said "it sounds like a woman finding out her husband is cheating on her" and it changed my whole perspective on interpretation
I absolutely love the bruch concerto, it melts my heart. I think my favourite version personally is Heifetz's version which isn't featured in this video but they are all fantastic in their own way. Loving these comparison videos xx
and also his ofcouree:) although he only had a recording from a phone which kinda messes up the quality and expirience. nonetheless it was really enjoyable too
I can't quite grasp why I have such a love affair with this concerto, but in contrary to some other concertos of that era, it's not about showing off. Instead it feels like telling an epical story of a person's soul journey through love from the inner most core. I remember when I played it (it was the last piece I played before putting down the violin for 30 years) I was instantly pulled into it's center, like you can't play it (or would have to struggle hard) from an objective technique-only standpoint. You can't escape each note infusing you with the very emotion it's expressing. At the same time I would go so far to say this piece taught me some depth and subtlety of feeling I had not know before back in the time. My personal favorite interpretation so far is that of Clara Jumi Kang and MyungWhun Chung as conductor on YT from 2020
Woah the Bruch violin concerto is my favourite out there and I've never listened to Verengov's version. While I didn't quite like his 3rd movement as much even the small bit of the second movement ray listened to here sent shivers up and down my spine damn. His second movement really is something special. Janine's, Hilary's and also Maria Duenas' third movement are simply unbeatable imo because they play it with such raw powerr and technically perfect, always a pure joy to listen to.
>>"Maria Duenas' third movement are simply unbeatable imo because they play it with such raw powerr and technically perfect" MD's Bruch third movement is very far from technically perfect - it is a mess, really - and her "raw power" is inappropriate.
Well I've listened to couple of other interpretations in the past days as well - Chloe Chua, Hillary Hahan, Julia Fischer, Maria Duenas, Zukerman, Oistrach... the 3rd movement is really iconic, you could literally do a "Bruch playoffs" :)
Thank you Ray! My 15yo daughter has won 2 competitions this Spring with this concerto with a 3rd coming up tomorrow. These videos are super helpful and insightful. Please keep them coming! Looking forward to seeing you perform in Boulder, CO next month.
I first heard Ray's Bruch when I stumbled on a video on his instagram of him rehearsing the third movement. I was absolutely floored by the passion, the intensity, the foot stomping, lol. Ray's playing made this one of my favourite concertos and I've never been able to listen to any other artist after hearing that.
Maxim Vengerov has easily the best interpretation! He has such a great sense of tone as to what is appropriate. He does justice to Bruch's composition!
Three points of critique: - The observation about Menuhin and being in different eras was very insightful. The way he plays the slow theme reflects a comfort with "sitting around observing what's around you and taking it in" - Your demonstration of the third movement doesn't express "guy on a horse" more because the amount of time you take to articulate the fast single stops takes so much forward momentum out that it feels like something different - Vengerov didn't say he was sick of it; he said he thought he needed to have less to do with the piece. That could have been because he thought he better play some other stuff (ex: because he was 21 and should learn more repertoire or because he wasn't spending time enjoying other repertoire as much as he wanted or because he didn't want people to associate him too strongly with this concerto and little else since he hadn't yet shown himself playing everything else we've heard from him in these 24 years)
I saw Daishin Kashimoto (first concertmaster of Berlin Phil) play this last year in Nottingham UK and I was blown away. His sound is just so dark and rich and perfect for Bruch. Especially in the second movement, his mastery and control over the long lines was just incredible. I've seen many of the current worlds top soloists (vengerov, ehnes, hadelich to name a few) and none of them came close to kashimoto in my opinion. It's such a shame he doesn't perform solo a little bit more. He deserves more recognition.
I feel like janine is very involved and involves the audience a lot they are always kind of looking at what comes next. she never let´s it get boring and really draws you in and captivates you, to a lesser degree vengerov does that too. I think this is amazing however it makes it difficult for quiet and somber emotions to really spread out and sink in. I think it is very enjoyable to listen too but may not be as impactful emotionally. But I love that these exist and there is variety.
Ray - you’re a true master! You’re so inspiring, and your sense of awe and wonder are palpable! Thanks so much, again, for this wonderful idea! Two quick suggestions: first, include the yer of the performance (Menuchin? 1950s?). Second, include Gil Shazam (you did mention Dorothy Delay…). Thanks again. Awesome!
I am a big Vengerov fan. His articulations are always fresh and new. His putting it away and then waiting to bring it out again really fosters the fresh sound.
Merci beaucoup pour cette review! C'est un des prochains morceaux que je voudrais apprendre. Ça m'aide beaucoup pour savoir quelle interprétation prendre
Thank you Ray. I really enjoy these types of videos. I'm trying to learn this piece at the moment and found it helps to look at these performers. I've been modeling my bowings and fingerings after the Vengerov video.
I always associated the Bruch with Pinchas Zukerman. I guess there are no videos of Zukerman's earlier interpretations to be able to include him in a video like this one. Agree Menuhin's interpretation projects a lack of emotion and that is a thing of his period. Like Menuhin, I prefer the emphasis that is given to that initial phrase starting with an upbow. Maxim Vengerov is my favorite. The recording is so spacious. The light and camera angles also help a lot in showing this is a big concert. His emotions are so aligned with what is being played. I wish Janine Jansen's video recording/production was better in this sense because her interpretation is so good but the video recording feels small; Never zoomed out, dark background. Agree Perlman is a confident interpretation, and the bow, wonderful! Don't like when he is pulling ahead of the orchestra in some parts. Love your description of lacking vulnerability. Thanks for another awesome video.
Person on a horse; yearning for it, but not quite getting it....I absolutely love all the analogies he makes to connect the music with emotion. From this, it is clear that a 10 year old prodigy, as technically advanced she or he is, cannot possibly be expresing these interpretations firsthand. They are merely mimicking the sound secondhand without the life experience to transmit their own emotions through the piece firsthand. Theirs is a secondhand performance, no matter how close it is to the real deal. Good on Vengerov for sitting out this piece for 24 years, enough time for him to unlearn the ingrained secondhand emotions, and give a fresh interpretation from his own heart.
My first experience with Bruch is a recording by Chloe Hanslip . It was amazing and set as my comparison point to other violinist. thanks for this video once again.
Maestro Ray's review videos are like a compass to a new world I didn't know existed. Thank you for always making such informative and high quality videos!✨👑🎻🌞💎🥇🎖️🏆When you explained the Victorian era, it was fun to understand it at once!💡✨😆
Menuhin was known to make a lot of mistakes like that. However, the amazing thing is that his intonation was incredible and his sound was one of the best to be produced from the violin. Rich and warm and just lovely to listen to and, as you mentioned, with perfect vibrato! Okay, some mistakes, but he more than deserves his extremely high place in the annals of violin history😉
It’s hard to say which is best… they all add unique, fantastic elements. My violin professor in college got her bachelors, masters, and phd in violin performance all from Juilliard and studied with Dorothy Delay…. made me think of her when you mentioned Ms. Delay 😊. You always add such great perspective in these videos and I’m here for it 👍🏼👍🏼
Janine is my favorite interpretation of this piece. I also like Anne Sophie Mutter's, her first movement is incredible. Janine's 3rd movement is so delightful though, and I love her 1st and second too. To me hers is the quintessential version of the piece.
Every time I watch one of these violin concerto showdowns, I go and watch the concerto, I did it with Mendelssohn, Sibelius, and know I kinda wanna listen to bruch
Not a violinist but love these comparisons of interpretation. My compliments to the editor, the military picture in particular was funny. Been watching some Trixie and Katya videos?
I looooove these videos! Please, keep them coming! A suggestion: you could make a video where you'd play a really easy piece, with different interpretations. So that we noobs could try at home to use what you'd shared ND improve our playing. Like an easy piece of the first 2, or 3 Suzuki books.
I gotta say Ray, thank you for making this video. I’ve got a solo and ensemble contest coming up in about 2 weeks, and I’m playing mvt 3 for it. I appreciate the insight.
this video made me go back and see what recording my teacher had me listen to, and it was nadja salerno sonnenberg recording, and that's the metric im still using to judge bruch concertos :)

Same
I'm 100% down to watch this as content but must include a croissant-eating contest🥐
Random but yeah I’m in
Want to see a video like that 😂
I love the way Maxim Vengerov plays this concerto. His interpretation shows more emotions. His playing is great!!! 😊
Yes, his tone and feeling is exquisite which fits this concerto very well.
Vengerov, I love a man who isn't afraid of being vulnerable, who shows us he has a thousand hearts for every emotion
Janine Jansen is a ROCK STAR!!! The way she attacks the piece, truly brilliant, masterful 🌟
I feel like she is underrated. She is my favorite!
I was brought up on Perlman, the pure joy of his playing always comes through on recordings. Many modern violinist seem to have forgotten this.
Then you were brought up right!
violin playing style has greatly changed since the black n white era to now digital content... today soloists have their own interpretation of each piece and comparing them on Qobuz is a breeze...
@@fatdoi003 I personally dislike when soloists play the piece the way they want.
I don't think Perlman alters the piece, he just plays everything more expressively.
@@Proud_Troll both ways of playing are great and necessary, don't get too hung up on one way or another to do music. Both ways of viewing it are equally as valid
Janine is one of my all-time favorites. One of my biggest musical inspirations as I’ve gotten older. ☺️
Janine Jansen played Bruch once with the orchestra I used to play in, was cool to have shared in her performance 😊
I always hear that little boy when I hear Menuhin. Pure Innocence. No other violinist has this quality. He retained this even into old age.
@sprickenville I'm not talking about technical perfection. His technique went a bit sideways as he aged. Obviously. I'm talking about a certain quality to his tone that is very special and unique. I prefer his vulnerable innocence to many of the technically perfect players today.
Menuhin was only famous not that good! Menuhin his concertos like Sibelius Brahms are so lazy boring dull restless and cold violin sound!
I think Ray's explanation why Menuhin's interpretation of the romantic bit seems to be dragging makes a lot of sense. Also I think we're just used to hearing this type of phrasing, where there is direction.
It’s a developed explanation for a lot of things. The complicated tv shows of the 1980s are dull to even children today
I’m really enjoying these showdown videos where Ray analyzes the performances of the same piece by different violinists.
Team Janine 😍 Saw her live 2 weeks ago playing Sibelius, that was ... just wow.
Janine offcourse! I love her playing, how she throws her whole heart in it and she is such a lovely person as well.
Ray, I'm embarrassed to admit, but before these videos of yours I didn't think there was any difference when different people played a particular piece of classical music. I thought all the recordings were the same! Thank you for gently stretching our ears, brains & hearts. 😂❤

Perlman's bowing was so fun to watch! 🤩
absolutely! that pinky, omg
Would love to hear hadelich in some of these comparisons for any piece that might come up in the future!
Augustin's Brahms and Barber are beautiful. He plays with such emotion, I could listen to him all day long.
Me too!
Please, Ray!!! 🙏
Anything Hadelich ❤
spiccyy
absolutely in love with vengerov's musicality, it always shines, especially in romantic pieces. anyways I love these videos on interpretation, keep it up!

I hope you do Bach chaconne soon. It's such a classic piece, with so many good interpretations by Hilary hahn, gitlis, Menuhin, etc!
and also his ofcouree:) although he only had a recording from a phone which kinda messes up the quality and expirience. nonetheless it was really enjoyable too
I wish we have something like what you do for our flute community. ❤❤❤. This is exactly how I love to listen to music.

Bruch has been my favorite for a long time
You know Ray truly enjoys playing the violin when instantly his faces expressions change when playing it, although for a brief moment.
I love Bruch violin concerto. I'm looking forward to learning it one day.
Always love watching and listening to Ray playing Bruch and Brahms 3rd movement! ❤️🎻✨
Perlman’s playing is majestic and Janine’s playing is magical ❤
Love them all but Janjne is the one who a. Utterly moves me and b. Makes me want to rush and get my violin out. ❤

Have a listen to Menuhin's 1931 recording, at age 15. I always love Menuhin, but this particular recording is fantastic!
Now you know how to sound like Janine, go practice on Tonic: tonicmusic.app/join-in and share your progress with everyone!
Should've done this video about Bruch 2 and 3, no one would've ever seen it coming.
I love Kyung Wha Chung's 1970s live version, would love to hear you elaborate on her playing from a top pro's perspective
the 18 yo vengerov playing bruch, i heard that on spotify, i think that is the best bruch i have ever heard 🧡🧡
Ray, You are a spectaculare and wonderful artist, unique on our planet. THANK YOU só much. ❤❤❤
I hope you will review Maria Dueñas her rendition. My absolute favourite by a mile!!! Especially the third movement is so good.
oh yes! I am listening to it nonstop! Love it
MD's performance of the work is a mess.
I agree, it’s visually interesting but inferior if you just listen to it.
Three points of critique:
- The observation about Menuhin and being in different eras was very insightful. The way he plays the slow theme reflects a comfort with "sitting around observing what's around you and taking it in"
- Your demonstration of the third movement doesn't express "guy on a horse" more because the amount of time you take to articulate the fast single stops takes so much forward momentum out that it feels like something different

I can't possibly be the only one who misread the title and was excited for a "Brunch Showdown"
For me the best performance I've ever heard and watched is with Hilary Hahn! Hilary is a legend today. Indeed!
Agreed! Her and Anne Sophie are my faves for this piece ❤
fr fr, Bruch peaked at that performance
I feel like janine is very involved and involves the audience a lot they are always kind of looking at what comes next. she never let´s it get boring and really draws you in and captivates you, to a lesser degree vengerov does that too.

I like to mention the versions by Milstein and Francescatti! These are imho the very best renderings of the Bruch concerto!
I WANT Vengerov's violin! It's stunning...
Thank you so much for such an inspiring and entertaining review. This makes you wanna do some good in the world after this seriously.
My favorite version is Sarah Chang's , her interpretation of Bruch is "chefs kiss"
I so enjoyed your post Ray, thankyou. and your ideas on Menuhin especially.

SERIOUSLY
He has one! It’s one of my favs
My favorite Bruch is Midori’s. There’s so much power and contrast throughout the dynamics which leads to a greater depth of emotion.
as someone who is trying to learn bruch i see this as a win

My favorite recording is of Diana Adamyan in the 2018 Menuhin competition (which she won, by the way). She puts so much emotion into the piece.

I love Menuhin best...his stance, his control, his vibrato, his most excellent positioning and phrasing...all his emotion come through his playing ❤️
My violin professor at university Edward Or and his sister Hilda Bor (pianist) were friends of Yehudi Menuhin.
