    This was super cool, but I wish they wouldn't have changed shots so much. It made it harder to fully appreciate the difficulty of the song and the musician's skill.

      In all honesty they did that purely for the cinematography, at least thats my assumption. While I have no doubt whatsoever that he actually played this peice, it sounds like it was recorded in-booth and then the video was shot for something interesting to look at.
      100% agree that just a still camera on the fretboard would be better than all the jump cuts though. Either way, 10/10 playing.

    I like to play many of Popper’s things slower than usual. For example, his Tarantella ...
    But elves - this is just the case where you need a frantic pace.
    And you did it perfectly.

      @andrewnix6480 2 роки тому +2

      It’s actually impossible on violin! The thumb position off the fingerboard section traverses an octave while on the same string, so you’d have to play it with the violin upside down like a cello. Which I have tried :p

      Agree about Rostropovich and Steckel - they play live, but this is a fake: video and audio were recorded separately and for string player it is even possible to see that sometimes Capuçon's right wrist doesn't move fast enough in comparison with sounds coming out. I will be not surprised, if the audio is sped up. Shame, Gautier.
