- Frédéric Chopin - Nocturne in C Sharp Minor (arr. Nathan Milstein)
Augustin Hadelich, violin; Charles Owen, piano
Filmed live in concert in Grünwald, Germany, on December 11 2018
I first played Chopin's Nocturne in c sharp minor on the piano growing up. The lyrical, aching line of the melody is wonderfully suited for the violin, even if the runs towards the end are totally pianistic, and when I found the arrangement by Nathan Milstein, it became one of my favorite pieces to play on the violin.
This was also a piece I chose to play at the 2006 International Violin Competition of Indianapolis, and my performance from back then is here: • Augustin Hadelich - Ch...
I played it so much back then that I put it to rest for about 10 years and only recently started playing it again. I remember being so excited and nervous and feeling very emotional as I played this piece at the competition. (I even look out to the audience at one point, because in a competition the thought of the judges listening keeps intruding). When I see the video from 2006 now, I looked so innocent and vulnerable compared to 2018! My playing has changed gradually over the years, developing better bow control, employing more sensible fingerings, and a better understanding of the sweep of the long line, but my feelings about this piece remain the same. - เพลง
I've noticed that when Augustin finishes playing, and then smiles, it is as though he has returned to earth from a higher sphere. Lovely. How fortunate we are to hear his wonderful talent. ❤
He has returned to earth from a high sphere.
I am convinced we are witnessing the best violinist of our generation.
Him and Hilary Hahn.
@Matthew Hayes shes not remotely close
@@nitelite4340 even though I prefer Hadelich, she absolutely is close. Hahn is one of, if not the, most technically skilled violinist out there right now. And in the last year she's really opened up her sound and freedom of expression. Her development is super exciting and she's easily my #2.
roman kim is my fav too
Totalmente de acuerdo! He is Not only a virtuoso, he is The Best musician of the musicians!
A musician who is not afraid of sentiment - I love his expressive playing.
Picksalot this is what I like most about his playing! ❤️
His violin sings more than many others. They may be as technically proficient as he is but he has something more which raises it to the sublime
@@jeanettegoldstein9575 I totally agree with you.
He let his soul speak through that violin beautifully
😇
First time I prefer violin version over the piano original. He is incredible
Joshua Bell's version is also lovely!
@@Amcsae this is true, it is good...but just not AS good, IMHO. The emotion in this one always brings me to tears.
exactly! my friend told me about this and I was very skeptical - Chopin on the violin? but this is incredible.
@@Amcsae absolutely, that's my favorite rendition of all.
He is spectacular. Music that can saves life. This song saved at least 2 Jewish musician life (piano). But the genius of Chopin expressed with Hadelich virtuosity is top notch, the very best.
Mr Hadelich is a singular violinist. His music is so sensitive. A simply stunning interpretation.
I agree, fantastic technique combined with unmatched expressiveness and sensitivity
Yeah soooo sensitive, thats the word!! All of his music!!! ❤
His tone is excellent. And, his execution is flawless.
A violin Virtuoso.
Listened to this four times in 30 minutes.
The 20th century had Nathan Milstein and now the 21st century is fortunate and blessed to have Augustin Hadelich. Like Milstein, Hadelich is a true Master of Invention. But Hadelich is his own man and does not remind you of Milstein or anyone else. His facile technique, his tonal opulence, his artistic vision - it’s all unique and incomparable. I’ve never heard this piece played quite like this! Simply breathtaking.
again...
I repeat.....
If you are not published writer, you ought to be.
Don't forget about my man James Ehnes! But really well put 🙏
I couldn't agree more. Yet, have you heard Aaron Rosand's version of it? I think it comes up at first when typing in "Nocturne Rosand". Regards
There is no words. Well there's plenty of words but a man can describe this beauty for a thousand years and it would not do it justice
Augustin,
Your expressive playing through each of your songs moved me to tears. I had a difficult time during my hospitalisation, but your songs were my therapy. Your music brings tranquility to my heart and soul. In between the notes, I sensed the amount of sacrifice you have to make throughout your life in order to deliver such a performance for us. We are privileged. Thank you. May God continue to bless you, and have you use your gift to touch the hearts of many others.
pieces*,a piece is generally an instrumental piece, and if not, it's called an opera,a song it's something more modern,like blues, rock,pop etc...
@@h........................... I see, thank you for the enlightenment
I hope you're better now.
@@Vocela Indeed, Jennifer. Thank you for your concerns. The Lord is gracious. Sending love to you from Singapore!
@@h........................... seriously? The man gives a heartfelt appreciation for what the music has done for him, and THIS is what you say? I'm sorry, but really??? And I see he took your critical theory lesson with grace.
His control over his violin is something I’ve never seen until now. The man was born to play music, and I bet that facial scar he has only he deepens and fuels his passion for music
The long singing lines of Chopin, which were influenced by his love of Italian opera, sound so amazing on violin. I’m surprised Chopin didn’t write for violin specific sometimes :/
TwelfthRoot2 I sure wish he would have! I keep thinking of how wonderful it would be if Mr. Hadelich would play more Chopin nocturnes, if it’s possible.
Chopin was even sometimes depressed because he wasn‘t able to play violin aswell. He admired mozart for that.
Just as a sidenote :)
I believe Chopin‘s violin compositions would have been even more amazing than his piano pieces transcribed for violin.
Chopin did write for the violin, he just put the notes down for the piano.
ok, I know I have commented before, but I do want to do a shout out to that excellent pianist who was able to stay with the artist. This is not an easy task, especially when the artist "changes the tempo" to suit the mood. Only the best pianist may be able to keep with this. Charles? You are incredible!
the way he is so sentimental is insanely mesmerizing. he seems so in love with the music, the violin, all of it
Words cannot describe what love I am feeling at this moment having just listened to such mastery. 💗💗
Everything this guy plays can be summed up in two words - perfect control. It's that control that accounts for the exquisite singing tone and flow. And obviously underpinning that control would be excellent technique.
A few years ago I was cleaning house while listening to Pandora's violin station and a piece I had heard a 100 times was played. I am not a person who cries easily, but I suddenly found myself crying into my dish water. It was the first time hearing that piece that I had ever been moved to tears. I had to know who the violinist was. And, it was you. You have been my favorite ever since. I can tell when it is you without looking. You are still the only one who can move me to tears. And, you do regularly. I don't know exactly how to express the difference for me, but it is like this... other people play the violin, but for you, somehow it is as if the violin and you share the same voice. You are not a man with a violin, but one piece, speaking together. Every emotion becomes tangible when you play, and I feel so very grateful for the blessing it is to me. Thank you. Thank you so much for pursuing your passion and sharing that love with the world.
Yes!
How beautifully described!
Which one do you heard??
Last week, we went to Woolsey Hall to hear classical music, the Maestro being featured violinist. Prior to his performance, the orchestra played the introduction. When he came on stage, the audience boomed with applause. He put his bow on the strings and then, Hadelich played his Stradivarius. I’d never heard that in life but, I knew from the sound, which I can only describe as ethereal. This combination, with the background musicians, nirvana! I’m hooked! Thank you, Augustin for playing at Yale! 🎻
Wait, I thought he plays on the Guarneri del Gesu "Leduc"🤔 I apologize in advance, should I be mistaken
That smile at the end it's so sincere. It's great to se someone so passionate about their playing. Also Chopin 'o'
That Sound😮👌🏻
With as beautiful as this is, I could only wish that more Chopin nocturnes could be arranged for violin. ❤️
They have been,by various viloinists. Ruggiero Ricci made a complete disc of them. A hard disc to get,but sublime playing.
Always come back here when feeling down 😔 it helps a lot. Thanks augustin ☀️
I come to this when I am stressed! Always straightens things out!
I can’t stop watching this performance.
Beautiful playing, revealing a beautiful soul! May God bless your life always!
He is the best of the best!!! I love him and his music ~
Like it has been written for the violin. I'm impressed.
This gentleman right here is the only man who could capture my manly heart.
Read the description and can feel how a humble and pure artist Augustin is!!! Love this piece so much and your performance is so touching. Every single time when I listen to it, my eyes are full of tears at the end
I looooooove Chopin. I wish he produced Violin work himself so that I could listen to Augustin playing Chopin much more.
OMG. This version will break your heart and soothe your soul. Bravo!!!! I swear, though, the absolute best part even after seeing this 20 times, is that wonderful smile at the end that says, "yes; this is EXACTLY what I wanted to say." Breathtaking!
Breathtaking...
This is the best playing of this piece I have ever heard. Much love.
Это самое божественное исполнение из всех, что я слышала!!! Браво, Маэстро!))))
to me ,the best interpretation of this piece… I remembered when Hadelich played this at Indianapolis competition.I was very impressed
There are so many layers and nuances you create, Augustin. Such a joy to listen to, and so much to learn from, even though I'm not a musician but an actor.

Wonderful!
Such a moving, stunning performance...just like everything else he plays. It doesn't matter how many times I've heard a piece played, in his hands everything sounds fresh and new...full of new beauties to be discovered.
Bravo, Augustin!
This has long been one of my favorite pieces of piano music and I had no idea there was an arrangement for violin. Now I'm learning it myself, thanks for the inspiration!
Beautiful smooth fine strongly emotional.
Maestro, è migliorato moltissimo rispetto al video del concorso, il vibrato più ampio è fantastico e si addice moltissimo a questo pezzo. Complimenti, lei è uno dei migliori violinisti esistenti
every time I start this video, I intend to listen while I work, and every time I end up mesmerized.
So sad and beautiful.
Hadelich, Owen and Milstein's interpretive talents have created a musical jewel. Bravo, gentlemen!
Estremece mi alma escucharte Agustín , tu inspiración al interpretar este nocturno convierte la voz del Violín en pura poesía !
Espero que vengas al Teatro Colón de Buenos Aires , cuya acústica empoderará tu cálido y hermoso sonido !!
Every now and then I come here to listen to this masterpiece and it never fails leaving me dewy-eyed. So astonishingly beautiful!
My favorite❤❤
Прослушала много раз и готова слушать бесконечно! Как он может наполнять жизнью каждый звук! Он поднимает меня над землёй! Разве можно подобрать слова, чтобы выразить моё восхищение игрой Огюстена!❤❤❤
absolutely wonderful
I keep coming back to this
Absolutely beautiful! ❤️
Beautiful
The way his violin flowing through the air so effortlessly.. absolutely incredible.
Absolutely mind blowing

HERMOSA INTERPRETACIÓN!! MIS MÁS ALTO RESPETO A ESTOS MÚSICOS DESDE LA ARGENTINA !!
Disculpe si le parezco algo irrespetuoso al comentar esto tras su hermoso comentario, pero únicamente quería decir que me pareció extraño no ver ningún comentario en referencia a la película de Karate Kid donde tocan esta hermosa composición
The very best Chopin Milstein, thank you Maestro!!
Bravo Augustin! I love his expressive playing.
Bravo! Passionate yet precise - beautiful rendition
Wonderful❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Danke sehr . Ich bin selber sehr krank und solche Musik gibt wieder Hoffnung. Ihr Spiel und ihr Leben , Herr Hadelich, geben mir Kraft weiter zu kämpfen. Nicht der Krankheit nachgeben. Die Musik ist für mich eine Gute Therapie . Danke auch dem Pianisten.
bleiben Sie stark, hoffentlich werden Sie bald wieder gesund. Möge all ihre wünsche in erfüllung gehen. Gute besserung.
breathtaking. this was all i could think abt
Muito lindo, Obrigada Augustin.
Our loving creator didn't have to give us music--or such dedicated marvels!
El mejor violinista de este momento .
I love how he plays, he hypnotizes me❤
Bravo! I like it so much
Niesamowite mimo ze skrzypce a brzmi genialnie! Dziękuje.
Love this!
We heard Augustin in concert in Vancouver and... Oh my, the power and emotion from his performance. A little bright gem mounted in life's dull trudge.
I didn't feel worthy to share the same air space as he and his skillful gift.
Hadelich is an outstanding musician!
Tres émouvante interprétation,merci
This performance was lovely throughout and the final notes were heavenly. Heartfelt thanks to both of you!'
Thank you for sharing how you've developed through the years with this piece. It's encouraging to think that virtuosos also mature over time!
Bellissimo, complimenti!
Thank you so much. And for your notes. I’m off to listen to your 2006 performance. 🇨🇦
That was really but really good performance. Thank you
A música mais linda do mundo ! Amo
I was so focused listening to this that someone touched me and scared the hell outta me.
It was beautiful!! Thank you so much!!!❤
Magia total, afinación que ingresa hasta la fibra más profunda!!!! Gran versión Augustin!!!
Emotions très fortes ,on ferme les yeux et c'est l'extase, merci
Increíble su interpretación. Bravo 👏🏼 bravo 👏🏼 bravo 👏🏼
Virtuosos 😊
Semplicemente meraviglioso!! Complimenti Maestro!
Das ist ein Geiger, der das Wunder wirklich immer spürbar macht - egal, ob man selber alles exakt genau so interpretieren würde wie er: Er überzeugt auf ganzer Linie und es macht unendlich glücklich, so einen Menschen bei seinem Tun zu erleben. Selbst die, die noch nicht einmal das Geigenspiel so sehr persönlich lieben - jeder, der fühlt, mit welcher Hingabe er seiner Kunst nachgeht, muss dieses Glücksgefühl beim Zuhören spüren. Es ist gar nicht nötig, alles mögliche über einzelne Aspekte seines überragenden Könnens zu sagen - man spürt einfach Freude und Glück, wenn immer man ihm zuhört und man sagt sich: So muss ein wahrer Mensch sein...
Thank you for these insightful words, which convey what many of us feel but are unable express so well. Truly, "this is how a real person has to be...." (Even better, I trust, in German.)
琴技細膩，琴弦所拉奏出的聲響撼動我心，好美好美的演奏!🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️
Magnifique!...Zac
Awesome hands down!
