    I too have heard many versions of this piece being played. Sarah's interpretation of this masterpiece is sublime, touches my soul. Her phrasing and timing executes such control not only of her musicality and skill of the violin but her ability to hold the audience in the palm of her hands.

    Best Meditation. Others try to emote on every note, but they can't hold it together. Here, Sarah presents this singular vision of the music in perfection. The orchestra and audience are with her too. It doesn't hurt that her stage presence is second to none. Just wow.

    I'm always surprised and delighted to see the range of motion this performance brings to people. I have heard people say, 'Joy! Tears! Tears of Joy!' so often--and it seems to vary with the performer as well. Miss Sarah seems to approach the music from the idea of joy, while Miss Sophie (at least when I saw her do it) evoked such sorrow. Both are beautifully done. Bravo!

    THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PROFESSIONAL VIOLINIST AND A GIFTED INTERPRETER OF ANOTHER'S MUSICAL CREATION IS THE ABILITY OF THE PERFORMER TO INTUIT AND EXECUTE THE EMOTIONAL INTENTION OF THE MUSIC. THIS VIOLINIST HAS EMOTIONAL INSIGHT INTO THE COMPOSITION.

    Замечательное исполнение, спасибо Саре, душа порадовалась.
    На мой взгляд композитор зря написал последний абзац, можно было закончить раньше на высокой ноте, что было бы логичней. Всё уже сказано, а последние такты, с претензией на драматизм, явно излишни.
