Krzysztof Smietana violin and Colin Stone piano perform Beethoven's violin sonata in F major Op.24. Recorded at the Duke's Hall Royal Academy of Music, April 3rd 2012.
So many comments are just plain ignorant here. One would think that the superb pianist doesn't even exist! This is a violin and PIANO Sonata, with the piano often taking the lead while the violinist merely accompanies. BOTH performers are magnificent, a real duo!
Yes, the piano is very often the one who first introduces new ideas in these classical sonatas, with the violin repeating or iterating on the dominant piano theme, and vice versa. Particularly in Mozart’s sonatas for violin and piano. People often forget these piano and violin sonatas are conversations with the total much greater than the sum of the individual parts. And also, people forget that with his two hands the pianist is in command of a full orchestra of tonal variety, whereas the violin mimics more of a soprano single voice.
Mr. Stone, your performance here is magnificent! You are supremely musical and technically accomplished. I can't remember when I've more enjoyed hearing a performance of this, thank you! I subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to hearing much more of your playing. I'm a professional musician myself, a pianist and voice coach.
I consider this to be a superb rendition of a glorious piece of music. Capturing the joy within the music without affectation or sentimentality. Just how Beethoven should be played.
Try starting from the last bar, then gradually work backwards. One or two bars at a time until you are starting closer and closer to the beginning. So often we practice from the beginning, and get tired or lose focus as we progress. This is a different focus. And as the first person said - practice.
Just how much of practice did they do before the performance?! Amazingly perfect, they played without any eye contact and it's like their body just know when to play the notes, when to pause... 😄 love this interpretion!
He just seem to be a big guy. Look at Itzhak Perlman, his hand is huge, like bear's paw, I wonder how he even manages to play, but he plays wonderfully
jeezuz, I need to learn the violin accompaniment. me and my friend have been planning on it and now that I see it all I gotta say for my hands are: rest in peace. I am just a beginner and have never been told to do anything other than whole figgin notes! I need help ;-;
If you have an iPad,go to the app and get the program TOMPLAY, then you get a Bluetooth speaker,you download the music you want and play with them,I’m only 7 month learning,but now I play this piece with the Tomplay,is great program
Anyone have any tips for me? I'm learning the piano accompaniment and the day the piece will be performed is May 22nd. I'm having difficulty with it as I also have my own exams come up... I can't seem to find anytime to practice it! Help! T-T
+Bella BTS Practice it slowly and thoroughly work through mistakes. Since you're learning the Piano accompaniment, you should make sure you have the rhythm down very well. If you practice correctly, you shouldn't really have to spend a lot of time practicing it. Just make sure the practice counts and you'll be fine~ You can do it!~
I'm the violin part, I can improve a lot through listening. Listen and imitate, and you will get exactly the same outcome as the player, no longer need to spend bunches of time on reading those annoying scores lol. Seems too late but hope it helps.
You can search in google for "mp3 converter". Then you need to copy the link from this video here and put there, so you can download in your computer. Sorry for my english, I'm from Brasil and I have been learning it for 3 years but I don't have contact with your language that much!
Daniel Pena I am sorry to state that your opinion regarding the piano being loud or brighter is totally wrong. I am a pianist myself an have played this piece a number of times and I find that the co ordination in always is absolutely perfect and the piece is brilliantly played by both the artists.
Both instruments in this piece constantly keep swapping parts in terms of importance, and it’s done here masterfully, rather than the usual way when the violinist stupidly thinks that his part is always prime.
She is there to turn the pages for the pianist. The video is synchronized so, the camera focus on the violin player while the girl is turning the pages.

Beethoven actually called it a sonata for piano and violin!
It’s a sonata for piano and violin!
❤
One of Beethoven’s very melodieus compositions. A superb work of art.
Piano is beyond brilliant- I am crippled with envy !!!
Violin is outrageous....tempting to wanna learn how to play the damn thing
I love this performance, it's so lightweight and playful, perfect. A great inspiration! Thanks Krzysztof and Colin!
That is very kind of you: if you want something more "heavyweight" check out our Busoni/Respighi violin sonata disc now on most streaming services

Marvellous performance!
Bethoven's amazing violin and piano playing is a true genius
Masterful performance of this piece!! I absolutely love it, and finally this piece sounds like a real duo!! ❤️❤️❤️
👏 bravo my son and I are learning this piece it’s a wonderful dialog
A tour de force by any measure. I had a chance to see these two perform together in Harrow last night and they were amazing.

The second movement is pure bliss.

+mushroomie loh Listening to the other's breathing is how it's done without looking, I think. Maybe Mr Stone could help us with this point.
Brilliant
I came here after watching Nodame's Canebile!

Maestro!
Try listen to nodame again after listening to this... You will hear how rough they play :D, chiaki is still awesome tho
adagio molto espressivo, really beautifully performed! I simply adore it!
Beautiful.
so beautiful
The theme is perfect
Very nice!
So amazing 😭😭😭
Bravo!!!
beautiful!
You made that violin sing! Bravo.
mfw everyone just talks about the violinist:

BRAVO!
Wow he nails the articulations why do I practice again...
今まで聴いた ベートーヴェンの「春」の中で一番のお気に入りの作品。すばらしい演奏です！！

What DID you write then?
(google translate) This is the most favorite piece of Beethoven's Spring i've ever heard. It's a great performance!!
@@141gray Well, considering this is a japanese comment, you should only be speaking Japanese here for the reply, but you aren't
Beautiful interpretation, and such a lovely sound!
nice music
This performance is stupid good. Love it!
好好聽
the best violinist EVER!!!!!!!
Niccolò Paganini would like to know your location:
Очень здорово!
Técnicamente limpio, pero muy inexpresivo, frío y seco.
Bravo!!
Funny thing I learned this piece before even doing scales. Only took me a year XD. I love this piece to death!! Awesome performance
Thanks colin stone off this 3:26 time

Anybody an idea which grade this piece is?
Wow :)

Beautiful playing but why so FAST?!?!?!?
Bravo 👏
This was an answer to Bella. My computer skills are not great. I should practice more😏
That full size violin looks too small for him. 😂 But he is really good !!
He just seem to be a big guy. Look at Itzhak Perlman, his hand is huge, like bear's paw, I wonder how he even manages to play, but he plays wonderfully
Beethoven is the best in the history of music

such a brilliant piece but the piano is too loud in my opinion. or at least the piano is much brighter
Daniel Pena I am sorry to state that your opinion regarding the piano being loud or brighter is totally wrong. I am a pianist myself an have played this piece a number of times and I find that the co ordination in always is absolutely perfect and the piece is brilliantly played by both the artists.
okay

could not have said it better myself! :)
Daniel Pena I concur. The David Oistrakh/Lev Oborin would seem to strike a suitable balance. And their performance is nothing to sneer at, either.

was the violinist using an baroque bow?
No he wasn’t
OMG, never seen that Clash Royale thingy...
Bel archet ; présent , inspiré .Dommage que le piano le soit moins !
Piano is too loud, they should have closed the lid a bit...
I disagree. Beethoven wrote this as a piano and violin sonata, piano first but equal importance.
That is true.
It is supposed to be a duet. Not just violin, so they have to be equal
Yeah,and I also think the violinist need to be more powerful
Both instruments in this piece constantly keep swapping parts in terms of importance, and it’s done here masterfully, rather than the usual way when the violinist stupidly thinks that his part is always prime.
the page turner is so pretty :))
Das Klavier ist die meiste Zeit viel zu laut. Das mag zum Teil aufnahmetechnisch bedingt sein. Aber es liegt auch am Pianisten.
Yes!!!

Is this hard for a kid that has played the piano for 7 years and another kid that has played violin 8 years
oh thx
Thanking yourself?
Can not answer the piano question but I have played violin for 7-8 years and have been playing Spring Sonata for about a year, so no
