Recorded live at her school recital hall for an exclusive online audience during the pandemic. Thank you to all involved.
(NOW) Fourteen-year-old British violinist Leia Zhu has performed with prestigious ensembles and orchestras across the globe, including Festival Strings Lucerne, Mariinsky Symphony Orchestra, Russian National Orchestra and the National Orchestra of Belgium.
She has played at the Salzburg, Lucerne, Rheingau Musik, Mozartfest Würzburg, White Nights and Trans-Siberian Art Festivals, to name a few, and her musical journey has also taken her to major concert halls across Europe, including the Royal Festival Hall, Brussels’ BOZAR, KKL Luncerne, Berliner Philharmonie, The Mariinsky Theatre and Moscow’s Tchaikovsky Concert Hall.
Zhu’s UK concerto debut came in February 2020 with the English Chamber Orchestra, with whom she performed Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto and Dvořák’s Romance under conductor Joseph Wolfe.
In 2019, she embarked on a two-week, six-city tour of Israel with the Tel Aviv Soloists Ensemble, and she has previously toured Switzerland and Germany with Festival Strings Lucerne, performed across the north of England as soloist with the English Philharmonic Ensemble, and toured Spain with the Los Angeles-based Classical Concert Chamber Orchestra. Special collaborations have included playing the 5th movement of Lalo’s Symphonie espagnole, conducted by Maxim Vengerov with the National Orchestra of Belgium at BOZAR in 2016, performing Sarasate’s Navarra for two violins with Noah Bendix-Balgley (concertmaster of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra) at the Berliner Philharmonie in 2017, and sharing the stage with Roby Lakatos in Monti’s Czardas, accompanied by the Russian State Symphony Orchestra, broadcast live to an audience of millions in 2018.

i love it when she moves real quick and her hair bounces. ugh yes bestie iconic.
Smoothest harmonics I’ve ever heard in a long time
Brighter than my future
@@philipq6906 you can shine as bright if you keep trying
The Harmonics and the LH pizz was insane!!!
I cannot believe in what I saw. Just now. She is the goddess 😍
Those harmonics are brighter than my future
The way you effortlessly slip into completely different tones is just amazing
The violin almost can’t handle her awesomeness!!!!!!!!
She destroyed that violin.
@@irinacarin a good way? or
I’ll be honest: I found this after I gave up on trying to find a live video of Itzhak Perlman playing this. I’m not at all disappointed to have found her instead. Love how into it she was from the beginning. Her violin has such lovely sound. It is ✨singing✨
A wonderful dose of Leia. Medicine to my soul. Thank you.
Is there anything you can’t play, Leia? This is amazing!
Thank you
Damn!!! Brava!!!!!!!!!!
your energy & playing is so beautiful
The harmonics are magnificent and the pizzicato is very clear and beautiful
Leila and her singing violin😸
Leia
Fantastic, powerful beautiful!! 🌹💐❤️💓💗💞🌈
Can only give one "like ". And also very good piano accompaniment.
Such a marvelous performance!!!...and I luv her hair bouncing to the music!!!...
Such a calming music! Counter intuitive thought but it does calm me when I listen to it during the times I feel very low.
Edit: I am thankful to Miss Missisipi through whom I found this one. Her rendition was terrible but I wouldnt have found it without her.
She enjoys playing that piece. These people play the hardest pieces by heart! What an ability to memorize music! I played once some violin pieces (different concerto movements for some different exams) by heart as well. But it was more than 30 years ago. But I think that I could only play really hard violin music by heart If I studied one piece one year long every day. But I have not time now to practize so much because of so much other work. I dream of one day when I have time to practize on violin at least one day long - and I have nothing else to do!
Wow! All grown up! Such wise and talented young lady!
Amazingggg,beautiful,👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Nice!
Brilliant performance! You are on way to fulfill your dream!
Wow
I am laughing at the amount of joy I get from watching and listening to this performance, Leah is such a musician as she allows herself to become part of the music, absorbed in her interpretation of the composer's intent. This was so much fun. I am happy to see her happy, also.
Oh my god. Love the energy!
Very energetic and active play! 😊
Wonderful Leia!
You got impact with the music from your soul, so sensitive, down bow staccato, great job!
Great and marvelous!
Parece magia! Magnífica! Parabéns Leia!
Ваша музыка просто божественна Леа !!!
Wow!!! Bravo 👏 👏
I my friend! funny to meet you here...
Electric and Beauty violinist. Congratulations
I am very happy for you!! Keep on doing what you love, ur on fire!
i am your fan!!!!! and this is my favorite play😍👍 Your various movement and expressions are soooooo stunning!!!!!✨️✨️✨️
Amazing and beautiful !
It is a shame that comments have been turned off for the companion piece, Playera. Your performance of it is really excellent!
I know you like to stretch yourself technically but it is actually refreshing to hear your musicality and sensitivity come so much more to the fore in a relatively simple piece.
@Veery Sleeepy
Of course, what you say about Zapateado is quite right!
But I didn't say anything about Zapateado or Leia's performance of it. It is her performance of Playera that I spoke and of, and it is that piece that I called "relatively simple."
@Veery Sleeepy
Thanks, of course no problem!
Wow!
Great!
bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you
You go girl!!!
Simply amazing 👏👏👏👏
Невероятная,-штучный талант!!!!❤❤❤💯🎻🙏
That’s amazing 🤩 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Your playing gets better and better every time you perform on UA-cam. This was a very accomplished performance. You incorporated some dance like gestures which is novel for you and I wasn't sure if perhaps these weren't slightly overdone. Maybe you have so much spare energy!
The violin girl, maestro.
Nice.. fresh
Thank you 😊
Amei como o corpo dessa menina dança e fala.
well caught Spanish flair… with use of heels 👠 and castanets …. and mind your shoulders ( keep your good breath control going) when playing through the seductive dark emotions of his ‘Playera’… you sacrifice and work your left shoulder and arm a great deal. Avoid pain that tells you(the body’s only language that can make us listen!)you are overdoing it despite having started so early ….and aware of the importance of warming up (remember the badminton episode you described)… keep your marvellous relaxed posture that has opened so much to others impossible possibilities for you!
Beautiful in all respects; crisp pizzicati, soft harmonics, creamy legato and cantabile...I wonder if less facial expressions other seizure-like movements could be avoided to get the audience more focused on the music itself...
Wonderful I wish you a bright future.
I never get bored of repeating this video over a over. Really great! I found this because is the intro song of a spanish program called "Palabras al aire" of Cesar Vidal. Maybe you could check it out someday. Greetings!
😍😍😍
wow
❤️❤️❤️
the chords were actually clean, wth
This is great, but Midori's performance of 2006 might never be beaten.
You might be right but I like this performance better
No freaking shit, it’s Midori???
Agree
nice
Thank you
😊😘🥰
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you
Os harmonicos um pouco desafinados no inicio, mas a tecnica dela é muito boa. 👏🏻
Fantastic, Leia! Such verve and panache!
(You're getting prettier by the day, too.)
Bravo, bravo! Just try to moderate a bit the forte double-stops. I felt that they sound rather harsh.
I'm sorry... what???
WTHOUT QUESTION A PRODIGY. SHE HAS LIKELY LISTENED TO MANY, MANY RECORDINGS OF HEIFITZ (D. 1989) HAHN, AND MUTTER.
Please TUNE THIS FU/&;&/&//& PIANO
NE
Very aggressively played
Passionately
@@LeiaZhuyes
Too harsh. Needs to be more singing.
It’s all perspective
La technique est o.k… mais le son n’est pas joli. En plus, elle bouge trop. Elle est violoniste, pas un singe! Aucune comparaison possible avec Christian Li.
Good effort but a long way off midori's
she’s a child compared to midori, don’t think you should compare musicians off of who’s more ‘talented’
What a distasteful comment.
@@creamsoda6427 midori was only 18 in that video tho anyway I still agree your comment
@@Arcenmh7718 ohh, i didn't know that. both violinists still give great unique lovely interpretations
Different style, different approach... one could say midori's approach beautifies the zapateado dance which some can take that as a negative.
