At my friend Edvard's studio @edvardthemusicteacher testing out some beautiful microphones sent to us by Earthworks Microphones. Fritz Kreisler Recitativo senza Scherzo
This piece was composed over 100 years ago, yet listening to this introduction, with it's eery mood, it feels like a musical poem that fits our present time. Beautifully performed. Thank you!!🙏🙏
Also, I have the same webcam light :) cool setup - all the lights against the darkness add a mystic quality. Like the big leafy plant in the corner too.
As Leonard Bernstein told David Nadien (concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic many years ago - you have that video here on your channel), "Bravo, as always, Daniel Kurganov."
Thanks! Yes I have. Personally I could summarize the value of practicing explicitly in 5ths in about 5 minutes. But I guess we all teach through our own bias, and for Mr. Friend, playing in fifths was important to solve/attempt to solve his problems. The more tools the better, but it’s always a question of which ones need to be used for your specific purpose and how much of your attention they should receive.
@@DanielKurganov gotcha, that makes a lot of sense. I would love to hear more from you about this topic. I will be sure to book a lesson with you soon!
Hey! You give a lot of great PDFs as free scale practice downloads, I was wondering if you have a few for absolute beginners? I suffer from depression and anxiety and need something I can really get my teeth into and block out everything negative in my head. Many many thanks for your channel, I love it.
Hello! I am sorry to hear about your struggles but am glad that you see violin as a potential haven for your mind and soul. I believe it can be that. I don’t have many documents for beginners, and it’s much harder to produce that. There are fabulous teachers out there with those kinds of materials. For example if you go to Mimi Zweig’s site her entire curriculum, with materials and videos is free! Check it out and i wish you all of the best!

Simply breathtaking! I wish I could play an instrument as beautifully.
These really are great mics :) Glad they were able to send you some too!
Bravo! Brilliant playing and violin sounding gorgeous too.
Bravooooo!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
You are fabulous!
Thanks so much!
Daniel, I admire your work a lot. Thanks for sharing this great interpretation.

Lovely

Very well played! I grew up listening to my great Dad Oscar Shumsky play this all the time. Looking forward to hearing the Scherzo. Bravo!
I have the whole piece recorded years ago…should be on my channel!
Your father is one of my all time violin heroes!!

Wow are you good Dan!
Big applause!
Thanks! Everytime someone calls me Dan, I suspect they remember me from high school or my undergrad years 😂
Daniel, wonderful playing. I must know, have you seen the “violin in 5ths” masterclasses?
Thanks! Yes I have. Personally I could summarize the value of practicing explicitly in 5ths in about 5 minutes.

@@DanielKurganov I am working on the 18 Experiments at Tonebase and found that very useful 👍🏼👌🏽

That is a great piece that only string players love. Other musicains do not care for it.
