It’s silly to describe or comment with mere words what I’ve just seen and heard. I’m awestruck and dumbfounded. Never in my 46 years of violin playing have I witnessed such a thing. This is so much more than monumental violin wizardry. Augustin is a transcendental musical artist. A genius.
Augustin's playing is absolutely out of this world. I'm Blown Away by your absolute technical mastery; a true genius. I can't begin to imagine... how Augustin can play so many extremely technically difficult pieces at will. Awesome!!!
Hadelich pays humble homage to Corigliano in that the two intermingle. He pays the composer’s music respect and love. That is the best compliment. I don’t know how anyone cannot see and feel the devotion to his craft. I find his interpretation otherworldly.
It’s a little like an airshow: everyone credits the performance to the pilots, but no one stops to thank the engineers who designed the marvel the pilots are flying. They are not seen during the work, and the work is just not as sexy. But, for my part, I will congratulate Mr. Corigliano on this piece! Fascinating work!
Augustin’s spirit is always one with his creation of melody, harmony and violin 🎻 this musical instrument is only his, no one else could possibly play upon it. he is the master violinist - our Paganini. you feel the music flowing through you and overcoming your senses. this is incredible. the spirits 🦋🦅🦥🫧🦌🦉🐾🍃🌩️🌨️🌊🪷🌱
I HAVE to write about my enthusiasm hearing Your maestry, Maestro. Your mental control on every single bit of note seen through an ideal vision of lines and nuances, that You actually realize into sound, You build “with” the sound, “in” the sound... That mental control, that is even beyond Your yet more than great talent, becomes a sort of neo-classical DNA of Your style of interpretation: so clear, so readable, so self-confident, and on the other hand so... private! It's not the well-known and common “great show of fake intimacy”. It's the wonderful back shop of the artisan of Beauty. Thank You.
Adriano Castaldini very nicely put. I’ve often felt something private-intimate, about his playing. I can’t quite put it into words myself, as you did. It’s as if we’re being allowed to peer into his soul, and are getting to experience the music as he does.❤️
Oh my gosh!!! That was phenomenal. I’ve never heard a musician so like there instrument. He is literally the violin. I don’t know what else to say. Ahhh 😊👍
The Red Violin is a wonderful movie with a very interesting set of stories and excellent, intense music. It takes a very accomplished Violinist and an exceptional instrument to meet the challenges of the diverse emotional music. Very nicely done Augustine. I particularly liked your Gypsy interpretation. You can't hold anything back for that music to sound right!
I've been your avid follower since you first set up your You Tube channel. Fell hopelessly in love with your music the first time I saw you at Vail Bravo many years ago, and the magic continues every day now. It felt like you were my secret but theres no way talent and skill.. and ART like yours could ever be kept secret. Thank you for all your Q & A /technique videos..It gives me a chance to learn more about more than just listening. I was afraid it would break the spell, to pull back the curtain and see the mechanical workings, but no. You're still magic. You have a beautiful soul and I feel privileged to have been along for this part of the ride.
In case you're interested, the violin is one of the greatest ever made. It is the violin that belonged to Henryk Szeryng, whose recordings on this instrument will also dazzle you. It is the "Leduc" Guarneri del Gesu of 1744, possibly the last violin he made. But the instrument is only as good as its player, and Mr. Hadelich is its equal, as was Szeryng. He truly deserves the privilege of playing this magnificent violin. And we are the beneficiaries of the marriage.
The most brilliant composer and violinist finally coming together. Such inspiration and enrichment for the soul. I could live, breath and play these pieces for an eternity. Thankyou 💞 💞
If anything positive has come from this "hiatus" is is the amount of great musical content being posted. Lots of recordings and information that may have never emerged otherwise. If you are going to do another Q and A, I would be interested in seeing your recording setup for these videos. Also maybe some more discussion on playing without a shoulder rest? What technical things did you alter when you switched? What was that process like?
Yestyn Griffith I don't necessarily agree about "all the great musical content' coming from the virus lockdown. I look around, and I have seen a lot of aspiring concert musicians online playing virtuoso stuff for visibility (yes, some excellent), and occasionally a "shortie" by a known master, but most of the master's seem to be hiding out and not doing anything like this. Why, I don't know...classical music as a genre seems to be dying out with this new generation, and the greats should be playing home concerts to keep it alive not just help their own careers. What Augustin Hadelich is doing, clearly not for his "career benefit" demonstrates, to me, a complete love of music and deep compassion for others. The COVID lockdown is letting him truly express himself and help promote classical music. I've seen many different of new classical music vids (and believe me, I am quite critical--to a fault, lol) and in comparison, Hadelich's talent is like from another planet. I hope he doesn't see this comment( because humility is likely the basis for his secret sauce), but that's the truth. GLTY.
@@badbeethoven1588 I don't think you need to worry about his humility. He knows he's the best violinist, but it doesn't matter because he is a man of great character as well. Humility isn't based in the belief that you have nothing to offer humanity, but rather in the belief that we all are made from the same dirt, (humus) and as such all have something to offer humanity. It follows from this to honor your fellow man, and use your achievements for the good of humanity, as he does.
I love this video. I have played this piece, and this is my favorite interpretation so far of someone else playing it. Thank you so much for posting this!!!
Mr Hadelich, I will put this as best I can: The 'Leduc' violin is lucky to have *you* , not the other way around ! The same goes for the Ex-Kiesewetter that you played on for a bit. I believe you drew a marvellous sound from it, more-so than Vengerov who had it before you at some stage. Bravo, truly! You are one of my favourite violinists. Top 2 or 3 on my list ... and I am including violinists such as Menuhin, Oistrakh, Kogan, Heifetz, Stern, Vengerov, Jansen, Perlman.....
Although the original recording is of a Stradivarius, the Guarneri “Leduc” brings an interesting set of articulation and tonal quality to the music. Music production has also advanced since 1999 so there’s that too.

@alexsaldarriaga8318 -- True...this is something from Beyond....almost incomprehensible......BRAVO from Acapulco!
Getting to the point where nearly all of my liked videos are just Augustin
Me too!
Same here!
Same, it's just Augustin, with the occasional guest appearance of Hilary Hahn or James Ehnes.
I am feeling gratitude for live in a time where this quality of art is so easy to access.
There are no words to describe that performance. Out of this world ( literally)
Hadelich is one greatest violinist today....
Augustin's playing is absolutely out of this world. I'm Blown Away by your absolute technical mastery; a true genius. I can't begin to imagine... how Augustin can play so many extremely technically difficult pieces at will. Awesome!!!
Everybody congratulating Hadelich for such a great performance.
Nobody congratulating Corigliano for such a great composition.
If not for Hadelich, I might have never heard of Corigliano.
Hadelich pays humble homage to Corigliano in that the two intermingle. He pays the composer’s music respect and love. That is the best compliment. I don’t know how anyone cannot see and feel the devotion to his craft. I find his interpretation otherworldly.

we can tell who's been practicing 40hrs/day during their covid19 hiatus
Безумно экспрессивно, накал страстей до предела, господи как же это шикарно!
This was so beautiful that my Siri started to weep and now my Rumba wont let go of my pant legs.
The breath at the end is the frosting of a perfect cake: it shows the humanity behind music and its expression.
Absolutely ❣️
You see, hear, and feel Augustin’s passion for creating beautiful sound.
Wow so much passion. The way he express the music is beautiful. What an artist.
I haven't heard this soundtrack in years! So glad folks are keeping this excellent music out there for new ears to hear.
Augustin’s spirit is always one with his creation of melody, harmony and violin 🎻 this musical instrument is only his, no one else could possibly play upon it. he is the master violinist - our Paganini. you feel the music flowing through you and overcoming your senses. this is incredible. the spirits 🦋🦅🦥🫧🦌🦉🐾🍃🌩️🌨️🌊🪷🌱
No words to express ..... BRAVO Maestro Hadelich!
That's Crazy BRAVOOOO. You are Everything I wish to be in Life... Nothing Else matter..
It is the best version of this composition that I have found on youtube
The display of pure mastery is incredible

The last two minutes are electrifying good god
Not on the list of worlds best? F____ the lists.
This is a rare and precious talent.
Breathtaking, tear drawing, extraordinary. Bravi ! The neighbors have not yet complained to my listening for the third time at 150 dB.
The greatest violinist at our Time! Thank you !!
Who can say that they don’t like this video??? He is always awsome!!!one of the best violinist actually
Augustin... thanks for this
Ich verstehe nichts von Musik, aber ich liebe diese Intensität. Danke.
Augustin my hero ❤️
There is so much peace in your music…it sounds like you ‘re listening so well to what the music wants… thank you!!
Oh my gosh!!! That was phenomenal. I’ve never heard a musician so like there instrument. He is literally the violin. I don’t know what else to say. Ahhh 😊👍
I heard HIMARI’s perform this song at her concert today, and it was a breathtaking and stunning performance❤️🔥
Just holy fucking shit wow! Probably the coolest thing I've heard in my whole life!
Thank you, Maestro. Apart from saying thanks i am speechless.
This is one of the most fantastic things I've ever heard
Love your way of playing the violin : so gentle, so soft, so pure. thanks
Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!!!
Flawless. Pure magic.
Your music has touched my soul. I thank God for you; for sharing your gift with us.🙏❤️

Simply incredible ! I love this violinist and this music ! 👍
Beginning to understand why the public thought Paganini was in league with the Devil.
It’s eerie. I see both sides in him
Amazing!👍👍👍

This sounds speaks to me from far away lands long ago... thank you~☆
Beautiful! Astonishing!
Marvelous-sounding instrument, playing, and recording.

Holy crap the ending is insane
Breathtaking!
Wow, wow, wow. And wow again!
Bravo!
I'm amazed
Simplesmente inacreditável! Hadelich redefiniu o violino! Sem palavras! Apenas o meu humilde "Bravo"!
Forget the movie.. watch this! Amazing increase outstanding!!
No me canso de ver a este violinista tocar

Yestin, to answer one of your questions, I believe Augustin uses a shoulder pad. It gives him more freedom of movement.

Amazing.... You are amazingly awesome
In my dreams I can play like that.
Just in my dreams.
Beautiful.... *Thank you for everything.*
You are the best♡
Magnifique ! :)

Thank you for this......
It was so lovely 😍 this movie actually made me learn the violin :)
Amazing wow
