- Here is the only recording of TV broadcast of Ilya Kaler performance from the 2d round of the VIII Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow (1986). I recorded it myself on VHS tape which luckily hasn't been lost...My admiration never fades - it remains a phenomenal example of pure violin virtuosity - noble and effortless...
Absolutely perfect, phenomenal, unique Ilya Kaler, unforgettable memories from that competition, he left the whole public speechless with his incomparable level
one of the greatest, and never got the appreciation he deserves
His son looks just like him at this age …! We went to DePaul University together
Amazing right/left hand coordination!!
Qué sensación de estar viendo uno de los momentos memorables del siglo veinte violinístico!
Amazing economy of motion, a real masterclass!
It's his best time.. What is great accompanying by Anna Balakerskaya! Thanks for this video--raritet!
I studied with Kaler at Indiana University and he changed his elbow grip, leaving it much much lower, very different from this video.
Прекрасно!
Uff! amazing playing Paganini and live.
How wonderful! Bravo.
Excelente Violinista! Lujo. De interpretación! Fantástico sonido! Gran musicalidad!
Это просто здорово!
What a brilliant recording, and he uses the Belgian bow hold👌
Thank you maestro, his playing is lovely. It's so effortless
Marvelous!
thank you evgeny
Absolutely insane violin playing
Wonderful .
So beautiful
Wonderful video and amazing playing. The unusual combination maintained through every technical difficulty, of warmth + clarity of sound (when there are many great violinists who favor one or the other) is the unique hallmark of Ilya Kaler, here.
AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!
Great violin playing.
La meraviglia....
9:04 Bruh what the heck
As good as any of the so-called greats. Amazing that he is relatively unknown, although I had heard of him before.
He's got talent heal go far
Come on! Kaler is a master violinist! So much better than those much more PR oriented! Fame absolutely is secondary .. just think of most famous soft drinks which oft have little to do with quality. Eric Shumsky
If you recall that old tv documentary this is what Frank Almond and David Kim had to go against......
I want that violin, 🤣🤣🤣
this video looks to old for 1986 imo
I was there. 1986.
Russian music school ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Kaler's a good fiddler, but he really wasn't up to the challenge of this Kreisler arrangement of I Palpiti. no upbow staccato, bad left hand pizz, sloppy harmonics, fuzzy fingered octaves. this piece is insanely difficult, and you have to have incredible technique to be able to dominate it and pull it off, but it just wasn't quite there.
I'd love to hear your version! Ilya Kaler is a god. Such beautiful sound!
@@bethgutermanchu7069 so i'm not allowed to have an opinion unless i'm a super virtuoso myself? beautiful sound? sure, he has a nice sound, but this particular piece is not primarily about beautiful sound. this piece is about kick-ass technique, and he didn't have it here.

I am a pro violinist .
You don’t know what you are talking about .
@@cornel999 Sure you can have your opinion, but why do you think you are entitled to state it publicly without backing it up. Do you have a better performance of this piece for a comparison which was done not in studio settings? Kaler performed it live at the Tchaikovsky competition. He is the only violinist in the world who won gold medals at 3 biggest violin competitions: Paganini, Tchaikovsky and Sibelius. And who are you to judge his playing!!!
@@irinashelepov8789 there are many superior performances to this particular one - a few examples of *live* performances - Vengerov, Kevin Zhu, Oleksii Semenenko, Fedor Rudin, and others. and who am i to judge? who are you to judge *my* opinion? you couldn't just say "i disagree, i liked this performance"? you have to attack my legitimacy just because you don't agree with my opinion?
Did he won? Why the Jury is looking Always so arrogant and bored?
BC they's all heard it 5000 times before he was even allowed to enter. His teacher was on the jury (of course). He won, it was inevitable. Plus he was an incredible violinist at that time.
