Heifetz was born for this piece. no one else captures the essence of this music like Jascha. i love at around 24:10, where the second time down the scale, he hangs on to the C-flat just a tiny bit to emphasize it, where everyone else just blasts through it. he is the master of timing and nuance, as well as hair-raising excitement.
It took me years to really appreciate Jascha Heifetz because of the age of the recordings. But, you are right, this is the definitive version of Max Bruch's Scottish Fantasy. I don't think another will ever compare. Heifetz makes his violin weep.
Max Bruch's music,Heifetz and Sir Malcolm Sargent, if not perfection I do not know what would be! Thank you indeed for sharing such beauty with us! Be well, JSE.
I am so glad you enjoyed this concerto. I will admit that Jascha Heifetz holds me spellbound with his work on this concerto. It never fails to cause tears to well up, especially during the first movement, the Adagio Cantabile. I hope you enjoy this concerto for a long, long time - it just never gets tired. Thank you for your lovely comment.
This is truly one of the greatest recorded performances of the 20th century. Heifetz' playing passes beyond beauty, to something even deeper. I don't think that we will ever see his like again.
IMHO this is one of Heifetz's strongest efforts. Only the greatest can make people believe that this is one of the high watermarks of 19th century music. Since listening to this recording for the first time some 30 years ago I've never felt the need to look for alternatives.
This, as you have now heard, is one of the most beautiful pieces of classical music I have ever heard. Jascha Heifetz is, to my mind, the only performance around, that does this piece justice. I especially like the first movement, the Adagio Cantabile. It is soul stirring. Thank you for your comment. I am glad you found this piece. It will never cease to amaze me how often classical music is used in movies, however, I did not know this was the inspiration for some of the Star Trek movies.
This is the piece -- and the artist -- which first made me fall in love with the violin as a young boy. I cannot tell the number of times I've listened to my recording of this. Its climax always brings me to tears.
Deze opname is een van de allermooiste die ooit gemaakt is van klassieke muziek. Alles klopt aan deze uitvoering. Een prachtige compositie, prachtig orkestspel en een fenomenale vioolpartij gespeeld door Heifetz in topvorm. Een prachtige mix van virtuositeit en melancholie. Vooral die lange, breed uitgesponnen, zangerige vioollijnen, met perfect vibrato gespeeld, raken me tot diep in mijn ziel. Heifetz koud? Deze opname bewijst het tegendeel. In een woord: schitterend.
I had this album, yes, a vinyl album, in late 1960s. Played it on a Gerard record player with a Shure phone pickup, through a Heathkit tube amp on a pair of home made speakers. I have never heard the sound of this recording or other recordings so good again. Heifetz's playing of this music and the Vieuxtemps #5 has soul; not from human being.
No musical composition can stand within itself without being phrased by the appropriate musician....for some reason I cannot explain,Heifetz's playing stands perfectly within this composition...well,I"d accept recommendations!
The unique suffering sound of Heifetz comes from his using two strings A and A pure gut. It creates rough tone and more human feeling . It's much harder to play with gut strings, to produce clean tone and accurate intonation.
As a older child and teenager, this was my favorite classical recording. Heifetz's lush tone and playing is miraculous, and the balance with the orchestra is lovely and gives additional depth to the music, without ever overpowering the solo violin. Absolutely a masterpiece of the first order. Lovely playing at 9:30, and great orchestral counterpoint at 11:10 onward. Haven't seen the cat, yet, but still a great favorite.
Yes, it is quite a tearjerker, isn't it. The first movement especially so. As far as I'm concerned it is THE most beautiful piece of music ever composed by man.
This is a truly beautiful composition which, like everything by Bruch except for his violin concerto, tends to be overlooked. When you then combine IMHO the greatest violinist of the recording era, with a conductor who is among the truly elite, you can't help but be swept into a world of wonder..
Max Bruch is my favourite classical composer. This Scottish Fantasy is one of the most beautiful concertos around and the first movement of this concerto is my all time favourite piece of classical music. Of course, we can talk about Jascha Heifetz all day long. (*_*) Thank you for your comment.
Afrikitty There is little doubt in my mind that Heifetz is the greatest. The first movement is absolutely gorgeous. You don't have to reply to this since I'm merely agreeing with you.
Gerry Rains I completely agree with you. There is a story that when young Heifetz played in London Bernard Show wrote: Dear Jasha, make sometimes a mistake. Gods are jealous, they may take you from us.
Dragan Savic The following story has been told many times - it's true but I forget who the two individuals were were and I am not going to bother to try to research it. When Heifetz gave his first performance in Carnegie Hall, a violinist turned to a pianist and asked, "Isn't it awfully hot in this room". The pianist replied, "It's not too hot in here for pianists."
I read that story. The violinist was Mischa Elman, the pianist was Paderewski. Elman was also a student of Auer, same as Heifetz. Elman was older than Heifetz.
I was watching God's Fiddler and was totally captured by this music, didn't know what and whose work it was, so looked hard to find it out, and finally found out. Had it been another person playing it, I may not have been so captured. It seems as if this work was written for Heifetz. Absolutely unsurpassed.
Well, I'm so glad you found this concerto. Yes, I do agree that it is as if it was composed for Jascha Heifetz. As you say, it is totally unsurpassed. Thank you for your comment. Kind regards. Liz.
This perfectionist Heifetz had patience to teach me a student from Korea. The Korean national anthem derived from the beginning melody of 3rd movement of this piece. Heifetz told to students, not to play too beautifully it might get boring. Take the risks.
Thank you for your great interpretation, shared with my listeners. I am glad you enjoyed this concerto. My favourite movement is the first one. It is hauntingly spectacular in it's beauty. My favourite is the melody at 4:30 and 5:51 in that movement The cat is at the end - some people hate my kitty-cat, but he is my production cat and usually appears at the end of most of my videos. I think he has character and makes for a smile - a really big smile, or a very big frown. (*_*) Have a good day.
I listen to this concerto almost every day. It is possibly the most beautiful piece of music ever written, performed by arguably the greatest violinist ever. And yes, the Kol Nidre (the performance by Mischa Maisky?) is also wonderful. His Violin concerto, whilst lovely, has unfortunately been played to death ... but that's OK, at least people get to know this wonderful composer.
Un compositore melodioso e magnificamente robusto, interpretato dal primo violinista che ebbi la ventura di ascoltare dal vivo: sommo e da allora ancora per me inegugliato... Che dite? Questione di imprinting, ma no, paperette o meno, la convizione è fondatissima. Ascoltare per credere...
Absolute perfection & beyond! Into the realm of pure art. This piece seems to be composed anticipating a player like Jascha to be born to perform! Stunning performance! Thanks for the post! Jamshed Delvadavala from Mumbai.
Max Bruch is my all time favourite classical composer. You are quite correct, he is the ultimate melody maker and Jascha Heifetz in all his brilliance reduces one to tears with his performance, especially of the first movement. It's like Gary Moore, Jeff Beck and some other blues guitarists, who are able to make the pain within the human heart quite audible...so it is with Jascha Heifetz, who accomplishes the same effect with this concerto using his violin. Please also watch 7OcJ0sL5XvU
I wish Bruch made a similar orchestration for the Violin Concerto...some brass and percution would've sounded just right in the orchestral only parts...
At 20:32 he's the only person who comes in there at that time... maybe he memorized it wrong? In the music the orchestra gets a solo first, then the soloist comes in.
This is a brilliant performance but why on earth do we need to suffer the intervention of adverts! The ads don't even wait for a pausa or fermata - at least the kitten finale doesn't detract - it's just fun - relax. Thanks for posting!
+John Jackson Thank you. (^_^) I don't know why TH-cam has taken to putting adverts into full length concertos and symphonies. It is annoying, I will say. Thank you for your comment. Kind regards. Liz.
Ji Eun Kim it was a combination of many things. His fiery temperament as a violinist. His bow technique - he used a tremendous amount of speed and left his bow hair very loose. Also his set of strings - metal e, plain gut a+d and wound silver g. These kind of strings would be unimaginable to a violinist today which makes it all the more incredible he made the sound he did on them.
Hallo again, I'm afraid you've got me listening to this concerto today. I dont think it is strange that you have listened to it 6 times. I am prone to doing that kind of thing myself when I discover and like a piece. It is especially true with me of Classical Music. I have 5 of the most beautiful clasical concertos uploaded to my channel, however, Universal Music Group have blocked them almost worldwide. They were my 5 highest viewed videos too. I wish you could hear them.
Hi there, I haven't a clue where in this piece you might find the part featured in Star Trek. However, it was sedimaster who told me about it, so perhaps he will be able to tell you if you would PM him and ask him. His comment is further back in this comment section. Thank you for your comment. I hope you get to find out where it is.
Strange I have played violin for a long time and have never heard of this then after watching Star Trek the Next generation and the episode The Inner Light I find that this is the inspiration for the flute music in that episode
I did a bit of sleuthing on that for you, and it seems as though it was first called the New London Symphony and is now simply called the London symphony. I hope that helps. (^_^)
Hallo yingdat, I apologise for that mistake. I never noticed what I had written. I have changed the title of this video to correctly reflect that this is ONLY the Scottish Fantasy, a Concerto for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 46, NOT Bruch's Violin Concerto No 1, in G-minor, Op 26. There is no space left in the title bar for me to add the key of E-Flat Major I do have Bruch's Violin Concerto No 1 in G Minor, Op 26 listed on my channel. Please watch?v=XuNNdHkNtso Thank you for pointing that out.
Anyone know where the part played in Star Trek is? I've listened to this forwards and backwards (Okay, maybe not backwards), and I haven't been able to find it. Just curious about it really.
I wore out my LP of this back in the 60s, playing over and over. I don't like Heifetz for all major works, but there is no question he owned this piece. I wonder if he met Bruch when he was young? My 2nd favorite Bruch work is the Konzerstueck, as played by Accardo: th-cam.com/video/pXogvUvXkc0/w-d-xo.html
I appreciate your comment. The cat is right at the end of the videos and is my production cat. There is a story behind the logo. Most people find it funny. (*_*)
Funny you should mention that. I have another video featuring those cats at the end and all the whiners are over there giving me a hard time - even Mr Shlomo Mintz himself, if you want to believe that. I had to launch into a tirade over there and throw the Riot Act at them. LOL Thank you for your comment. It made my day. (*_*)
toddy2cool LOL -- Many people don't like the fact that I have put those kittens there. People have actually threatened me for doing so. I ask you. I thought it was funny at the time, but it seems as though cats DON'T rule the WHOLE internet after all. You take care now and thank you for your comment. Kind regards. Liz.
Afrikitty Obviously, nobody has a right to threaten you, but it did spoil the ending of a piece a little bit. Even if you can't get that hushed silence and stillness of musicians right after a piece has finished, this really breaks the mood. In any case, thank you for your upload!
This is one of the greatest violin recordings of the 20th century. Period.
Heifetz was born for this piece. no one else captures the essence of this music like Jascha. i love at around 24:10, where the second time down the scale, he hangs on to the C-flat just a tiny bit to emphasize it, where everyone else just blasts through it. he is the master of timing and nuance, as well as hair-raising excitement.
Vibrato control exquisite, and rich tone achieved with that instrument is remarkable.
Well said
It took me years to really appreciate Jascha Heifetz because of the age of the recordings. But, you are right, this is the definitive version of Max Bruch's Scottish Fantasy. I don't think another will ever compare. Heifetz makes his violin weep.
For depth of interpretation, you can't go wrong with Heifetz.
Such emotion.
Jascha Heifetz, the measure by which all other solo violinists can be measured. He was unmatched!
Max Bruch's music,Heifetz and Sir Malcolm Sargent, if not perfection I do not know what would be! Thank you indeed for sharing such beauty with us! Be well, JSE.
ScotsjohnSE have you heard the version with theColumbia symphony?
Thank you Heifetz for existing
I am so glad you enjoyed this concerto. I will admit that Jascha Heifetz holds me spellbound with his work on this concerto. It never fails to cause tears to well up, especially during the first movement, the Adagio Cantabile.
I hope you enjoy this concerto for a long, long time - it just never gets tired. Thank you for your lovely comment.
Pinchas Zukerman, in referring to music that an artist "owns", specifically mentioned Heifetz and the Scottish Fantasy; and I quite agree.
Without a doubt!
Thank you for your comment.
(*_*)
That bit where the violin and the flute has that beautiful conversation and ends up intertwined, is mesmerising, as is the rest!
Das spielt niemand so schön und perfekt wie Heifetz. Er ist einmalig !!
No one plays as beautiful and perfect as Heifetz. He is unique !!
You are right! (^_^)

Other violinists play the Scottish Fantasy, Heifetz sings it.
This is truly one of the greatest recorded performances of the 20th century. Heifetz' playing passes beyond beauty, to something even deeper. I don't think that we will ever see his like again.
THE finest violinist of the 20th century without a doubt.
I agree. Thank you for posting this recording.
Paul Green It was my pleasure. Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Heifetz was, in fact, the greatest violinist ever to walk on this earth.
Jascha Heifetz was/ is / will be the greatest violinist ever to walk on this earth.
Yes he will. (^_^)
And Paganini?
IMHO this is one of Heifetz's strongest efforts. Only the greatest can make people believe that this is one of the high watermarks of 19th century music. Since listening to this recording for the first time some 30 years ago I've never felt the need to look for alternatives.
It is my all time favourite piece of classical music. I especially love the 1st movement.

Gorgeous !!!
Thank you very much. It is an oldie, to be sure, but it is a GOLDIE, still unsurpassed even today. Jascha Heifetz was a master violinist. (*_*)
I don't know how he does it, but Heifetz always has this suffering sound, brings me to tears every time
Heifetz expressed heroism and tragedy in his playing. That's what make his performances so gripping and profound, in my opinion.
The unique suffering sound of Heifetz comes from his using two strings A and A pure gut. It creates rough tone and more human feeling . It's much harder to play with gut strings, to produce clean tone and accurate intonation.
@@user-op6vy3gg2b But the meat on that G string, it was massive.
@@srinitaaigaura I see. It's due to his massive firm grip of the bow hold. Unique way only belong to Heifetz.
Heifetz is the violinist that other violinists come to listen !
Yes. (^_^)
If they don't come & listen, they should. There is a risk: They might decide to give up the violin.
Agree...Very emotional... especially Heifetz interpretation...
This is Heifetz's last concert, it is full of his emotions and his understanding of life.
I have been told that the recording session lasted as long as the piece itself. I.e. no retakes. Heifetz came, played and conquered.
Actually, there were two sessions: one on May 15, 1961, and the second on May 22, 1961.
So dark and soulful. Love it.
As a older child and teenager, this was my favorite classical recording. Heifetz's lush tone and playing is miraculous, and the balance with the orchestra is lovely and gives additional depth to the music, without ever overpowering the solo violin.

The Columbia symphony not found. To me, the best.
He would sound like Heifetz on any violin.
its not the fiddle, its the fingers
actually, its not even mainly the fingers
the sound is created by the bow and the hand guiding it
Don’t think it’s solely his instrument but his bowing that provides the phrasing & vibrato of course !!!!

Funny you should mention that. I have another video featuring those cats at the end and all the whiners are over there giving me a hard time - even Mr Shlomo Mintz himself, if you want to believe that. I had to launch into a tirade over there and throw the Riot Act at them. LOL
Thank you for your comment. It made my day. (*_*)
👏👌
One has to suffer through 25 minutes of Heifetz to get to the meows ... oh well
Correction -- 25 minutes and 47 seconds. (^_^)
I think the cat meow is stupid.
3:47-3:52 reminds me of "Auld Lang Syne".
I got to the end and was like where the hell are the cat sounds coming from !?
toddy2cool LOL -- Many people don't like the fact that I have put those kittens there. People have actually threatened me for doing so. I ask you.
I thought it was funny at the time, but it seems as though cats DON'T rule the WHOLE internet after all.
You take care now and thank you for your comment.
Kind regards.
Liz.
Afrikitty Obviously, nobody has a right to threaten you, but it did spoil the ending of a piece a little bit. Even if you can't get that hushed silence and stillness of musicians right after a piece has finished, this really breaks the mood. In any case, thank you for your upload!
@ggreen85 Yep, Jascha Heifetz will do that to you. (*_*) And, of course, this piece of music.
Rakelians got some folk music!!!..hehe..ok thanx pal:))
