She is more nervous introducing herself rather than playing the violin 😦amazing
She's played the violin longer than anything in her life. She probably feels the most relaxed doing it
ikrrrrr!!
I feel like it's because talking is about you, and playing is about the music
She plays violin majority of her life probably so she is super confident doing it. 👌 10.000 hours doing of anything and you are becoming a pro 😉 On the other side she may be shy, and her English is not yet on a high level, so she is not that confident introducing herself.
This is how you know there is still a tiny child inside! Thank God.
Her at 12: plays like a legend
Me at 12: tests to see if the refrigerator lights turn off once I close the door

Authentic Bastard they turn off 😂
Lmao this is me

She said when she was young, her mom had to stop her not to playing violin cuz she practiced hours for one note or phrase. She even played for more than 10 hours per day by herself even nobody pushed her to do it. What a hard work genius!!
It is fascinating to watch a child her age so determined, a child who has an actual goal that they want to achieve perfection and mastery in something. The determination alone is fascinating and equally intimidating
The determination she have is the thing that I don't have
@@Sara-tr2gh and frankly a great way to make people envious asf
but mainly the love for playing the violin, it's everything
That’s passion
1:48 i love that smile, as a pianist myself, i know the feeling of nailing a key with the perfect weight and timing.
Someone said that was because the B in the chord was slightly flat
@@MariosPOS Why would a stage piano be out of tune??
@@MariosPOS Oh my bad. I didn’t watch it before I said that; I just assumed you were talking about the piano 😅
Bro it's a nervous smile because the note is out of tune

Here are the four sections.

Needless to say the spectacular fourth section, I am deeply touched by the third section as well.
I love the emotion she plays with, her violin sounds so rich and sweet. Her's It's my favorite interpretation of this piece
thanks!
Fourth section using the motif of Hungarian Czardas, its most prominent motif starts at 8:10 , very typical in the Czardas dance.
Que es Moderato??
Thanks!!

Her technical skill is crazy good but what is really striking is how she is able to produce such an interpretation at the age of twelve. Absolutely incredible! Probably the most exciting soloist of her generation.
>>"Probably the most exciting soloist of her generation."
Definitely not.
@@jackburgess274 Don't tell me it is Chloe lol
@@Chibanah
What the hell is wrong with you?
Chloe and SoHyun are both incredibly talented.
That's my absolute favorite version of this piece. There's something fierce and incredibly mature in her playing that makes me want to listen to it over and over again.
@Kyle Billie I hardly believe this is the result of only self motivation, this level of mastery takes a lot more than motivation.. her IQ is probably high, my bet is her parents spent a fortune on her because she had been playing since she was a very young child, there’s a video of her playing freaking Mozart at only 8 years old. I was blown away by her size, she played it like Mozart himself was her personal mentor 😂
Absolutely this. I've heard so many versions of this piece and I keep coming back to this. What a stunning interpretation that wrenches the heart. ❤
@@Sara-tr2gh In Korea, most musical prodigies are found and raised by government-sponcerd program or by famous instructors at a very young age so if a kid is really good the parents don't need to spend a fortune.
Absolutely, it is indeed a remarkable performance. I've also recently discovered a lesser-known recording by a Polish violinist who also interprets this piece exceptionally well. I find both of these performances to be the best I've heard and often revisit them. I think you might find this interesting: ua-cam.com/video/7Yf6Me5Jy5U/v-deo.html.

I usually don't leave comments,but it would be a crime to not appreciate this beautiful music. Bravo! The best version yet.
9:04
Perlman's is better imo
No doubt
This piece perfectly represents the Hungarian soul, how through the ages we had so many sad moments in our history, but the people always tried to bursh off sadness and depression by jokes and joyful dance. The fast dancing song (czardas) is prefect choice and ending after the very slow sad theme.
I realize that
If it represents Hungarian soul, why is it called "Gypsy Airs", and not "Hungarian Airs"?
@@tanyaamosava241 "Like his contemporaries, Sarasate misidentified Hungarian folk music with the "gypsy music" of the Romani people, and the themes in the piece are not of Romani origin, but were all actually adapted from Hungarian music pieces." That's what Wikipedia says.
@@jujube9871 Well said.
@@tanyaamosava241 As it is on wiki, which was corrected because of me, when I found an article about the story of this piece, Sarasate was visiting Hungary, and usually foreigners know nothing about Gypsies, so they think if they play a song, then it is probably theirs (Sarasate also heard these melodies played by gypsy musician). Well in fact, many gypsies started to work as musician in 19th century (or even earlier), but because they were mostly playing (working) for Hungarian audience, obviously Hunagrians wanted to listen to their own traditional folk songs, in this way the Hungarian Gypsies had to learn and play these songs, otherwise how they would have made money in the bars and restaurants they were playing?
So Sarasate went home thinking it was probably Gypsy music, however there can be an other reason of it, in that time the composers liked to use the name Gypsy, because then it sounded more exotic, it is clear in the case of Ravel: Tzigane, tzigane (or as we say cigány) is an other word for Gypsy, and this piece has nothing to do with the Gypsies either. From Wikipedia: ,,The name of the piece is derived from the generic European term for "gypsy" (in French: gitan, tsigane or tzigane rather than the Hungarian cigány) although it does not use any authentic Gypsy melodies."
it took exactly 15 seconds to turn from that shy little cute girl on the mic into that MONSTER on her Violin
two different personalities in one body.
Its scary you arghhh
Not to be too critical, but she might appear more shy and nervous because:
1. English isn’t her first language.
2. In Korean culture, you are supposed to act humble and reserved the younger you are, especially at 12. If you act too confidently, the public will think you are arrogant at such young age. The expectation is to be a bit shy and cute.
Just like Jimi Hendrix's personality also
Bipolar my dudes
Watch courtney hadwin at america got talent sir, thats same

I love how at 1:48 she gets the pizzicato note just right then rewards herself with one-half of one little smile, then it's ON WITH THE MUSIC.
Someone in the comments said she smiled probably because the B in the chord was flat and she was shrugging it off like that

Oh yes. When we watch something like this we have to consider how humble we are. Hats off to SoHyun. By the way, if one checks this same musical piece played by the greatest names of violin, we learn that there's one vídeo with some 3 mi. views....and the vídeo was posted some 11 years ago. How many views SoHyun will get some years from now?

I’ve heard Heifetz play this, but this little girl’s interpretation moved me to tears. Never had that happen.
The most amazing part about it is how she's doing this because she LOVES playing it since she was very little, she's passionate about it and you can see it in the way she plays. she wasn't forced by her parents to take Violin lesson like most of our Asian parents does lol

I don't get how kids can even play like that. Fluency, matured playing, and techniques take so much time to develop. Perfecting a piece takes even more time. It's incredible
Talent and hardwork
Jea, hardwork....
Very hardwork and so much drill

I guess she started at a VERY young age
Her: does it with her eyes closed and perfectly on tune
Me: Still has tapes indicating where to place ur fingers
It's actually easier with eyes closed helps you focus on the piece and ignore any distractions around you
When I close my eyes it’s easier for me to play in tune
Some ear training may help.
You're probably better than you think...
I can’t even make it not sound like a dying whale 🐋 😂
She speaks like a child; she plays like an accomplished master.
No matter how many other versions of this I have watched , I always always always gravitate back to this. The feels, it just hits differently. It has that sense of sorrow that hits deep. She is amazing, no doubt about it.
That ponytail though, is probably as perfect as her skills
Sakura omg haha this is underrated
I was just trying to figure out how she got it to stay so perfect
Sakura It’s her signature look ever since she was little
Imagine being this good at something. Can't relate. Watched this being impressed, left the video depressed.
You won't be depressed after watching this, or any other really good performance, if you become absorbed in the music and lose yourself just as the musician is doing. That, for me at least, is what it's all about and what these wonderful people practice so hard for and want to give us. Some can

She transcended humanity. Could even one of them have predicted that one minute she would be smiling shyly and the next she would be performing in a way that would take everyone's breath away?
The way she plays this piece brings me to tears...
I'm classically trained on the organ, but my friend is an expert violinist. We watched this for the first time, and she was almost speechless. "I have heard almost all famous violinists play this piece, and she DESTROYED them."

I have now heard several other performances of this piece, including ones by Menhuin and Perlman. I keep coming back to this one, as the one I like best. I love to watch her facial expressions, as she plays. She is not just playing this piece, she is dominating it. She is showing the world how it should be played. At 12 years old! And at 16, she is even better, if that's possible.
It seems as if she was born to play a violin owing to " a real flair " that might be inherited from her parents!? I do hope she would be better at 16 thanks to the genuine flair she was born with & her brilliant teacher whoever that individual is. Have a fabulous day wherever you are!! And stay away & healthy amidst the dire plight precipitated by the COVID-19 & its variant such as the omicron virus running on a rampage around the world or pandemic.,,,,(12/24/22)
I think she really nailed the tempo of the last part, most of the other performances of other violinists or her others ones too, have a bit different tempo. When they play it faster, it starts to lose the feeling of the dance Czardas, as this part comes from that. for example 8:10 is a very typical part of it.
At 6:50, it began sounding so painfully sad which moved me to tears. It is incredible how a 12-year-old can pour so much emotion into a classic piece. Bravo.

As a pianist and violinist, watching this just makes me think of all the years I wasted being with friends instead of practicing because in my adulthood, I have my instruments and not my friends.

I feel you. As a scientist, I have my books and not my friends with me :”)
Don't regret it these friends gave you a childhood. What you MAY regret is all the dumb stuff u did that you could have spent doing something else
Ive always wonder people who play instruments since little like sohyun, do they really like it or is it just their parents who put those instruments in their hand? Like do instruments player gravitate towards it since they are small?
Who needs friends
7:44 to 7:56, I picked up something there. Notice that when she does this phrase initially, you can (if you’re a violinist/performed solo) pick up on how she failed to gliss up and merely shifted, which didn’t sound the way I assume she wanted it to; but look at when she does said phrase again. She *glisses up* rather than shifting up. After she does that phrase the way she wanted it to, you can see her smile.
Crazy how I picked that up. :0

Not only because of her incredible playing this tune but there is another reason why I occasionally watch this clip. With my heart fulling when I see the little girl smiling (similar to the Mona Lisa feeling) as she successfully completes the moderato with a pizzicato at 01:48. I'm five times older than her. With this smile, I realize the true meaning of life. Today, once again, I'm taking a philosophy class from a little (but full of confidence as far as performing) girl.

@@user-et8se3od1p
I know that clip well. Of course it is of the Sarasate Carmen, not the Hubay that Chloe performed.
I agree that Sarah Chang was more precocious technically than Chloe, but Himari is more precocious technically even than Sarah.
In terms of musicality, however, Chloe is superior to both (although Himari runs her close).
Sohyun is an extremely accomplished violinist but she is at a level quite a bit below theirs.
@@user-et8se3od1p
>>"You know Himari still plays simplified version of Carmen Fantasy at the age of 11, don't you."
She does not.
She has never performed either the Sarasate or the Hubay.
She performs Waxman's Carmen, which is the most technically demanding of the three.
Normally she performs it in full, but on one occasion she did perform selections from it consequent to time constraints.
>>"She is not considered as a vertuoso in any other country, I'm sorry to say.
You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
As wonderful as SoHyun Ko is, let's not forget about the talented and beautiful accompanist, Allison Freeman. Too often, accompanists are overlooked. They have put in their 40 hours a day of practice, too (as Two Set Violin would say). 2023-09-13, Burlington ON Canada.

1:49 Damn, I'm good! **smirks**
Woaaa!!!
Yeah, I would do that too if I ever manage to play that particular passage so perfectly.
that made me smile when she did it
im pretty sure it's because she missed the notes on the pizzicato
That is self-confidence
I've watched this atlest 10 times, she puts so much emotion into it, it sounds incredible
As a violinist, currently around the same age as Sohyun was when she performed this (thinking similarly to Sohyun), who is currently preparing to perform this piece, and as a pianist who has accompanied my siblings multiple times in the past, I understand the level of difficulty of this piece, but also how hard it is to accompany another person during a musical performance. Congrats and great job to both of them!
The pianist was on point as well! Lets not forget about her!
Lol, i don't understand how she could stay in time with the violinist, that's really impressive
The piano sheet is much easier for this piece than the violin sheet, so it is only logical and even fair that the violin gets far more recognision as the violin sheet is more difficult by a gigantic margin. With that being said, yes the pianist does a great work and deserves praise. Both were fantastic.
@@jameswalker6864 yes, the piano is just accompaniment
Its not the fact we forgot, but we truly don't need to care. Yes, the pianist was good, but of course she was. She is an adult with far more years of practice and even an easier sheet to play. The violinist, however, is quite young with not so many years of experience. That is why the pianist doesn't get as much recognition. It wasn't about the pianists show but the violinists. If the pianist had their own show instead, then indeed they would get more recognition.
Jaiden Morse The point of me mentioning the Pianist was because no ones giving her props! Obviously the videos about the young girl! No ones arguing her skill and performance! I just think the pianist deserves a tip of the hat as well! She’s not your average church pianist! shes very skillful herself!
Guys this kid is amazing but let’s appreciate how collaborative this pianist is she always looked over at Ko like this is true collaboration
her hands are so fast! if you look at it closely it might be an actual robot
Indeed. Can't believe nobody here even mentions the pianist. Obviously Ko is in the spotlight but the pianist was also superb. Big props to both of them!
Honestly one of the sweetest things I’ve seen in a while.
yeah lmao i was about to comment on how amazing the pianist actually was as well!
The pianist never missed the cue of when to play again, she knows sohyun's habit of swinging :-)
I should start to count how many times I come back to listen to this again and again, I am definitely over 30 times.
I actually started doing that recently, and in the past few months I've listened to this recording 48 times :O

Must say that the accompanist is unbelievable good! She's not playing only her own part, but she truly accompanies the girl.The way she listens to the girl's violin is amazing and their interaction is incredible!

Elisa Khud,
In reading these comments it seems most of these viewers have very little exposure to live classical music experiences/performances (probably even on UA-cam).
I've been enjoying classical music on UA-cam for years. My mother was a professional performer with harp and voice and toured Europe in the 1950's with the professional All-America Chorus as a featured soloist (including a performance for the Queen of England).
She was an honors graduate in choral conducting and piano at Northwestern University.
Her daughter/my sister won a full tuition scholarship to the Eastman school of Music, was the harp faculty at the University of Denver, first call union harpist and played with the Denver Symphony. Her husband earned his master's and doctorate degrees on cello at Northwestern University and recently retired after 34yrs from the Denver Symphony and 25yrs with the Central City Opera Orchestra.
I sang in the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra Chorus for 20+yrs including three different sold-out performances in Carnegie Hall.
We were invited to augment the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chorus performing on two different (14,000 attendees in the amphitheater and on the 36 acre grounds) occasions for the season opener at Ravinia (the summer home of the Chicago Symphony) (look it up).
I had a successful clarinet/saxophone studio for forty years.
My point being, I've never run across this level of reaction/commentary to a standard classical music situation before. This is not something rare or uncommon to expect in the musical world of performance. There's no dispute that she is a gifted accomplished musician accompanist, but, as with soloists, there are fortunately many inspirational/moving performances to be experienced and savored.
I'm just surprised that so many people haven't apparently heard this level of "tear" producing artistry.
I hope you are lucky enough to hear/experience many more.
Thanks for letting me "spout" off.

Historical Otaku As it destroys my last 20 minutes of work, am I right? XD

HAHAHAHAH
Me at 24: playing minecraft and dying to a creeper
Me at 17, playing Minecraft, got killed by Ender Dragon, rage quit
Me at the start: okay she's pretty good
Me after 50 secounds: okay that girl is a god
Nah, she's an Asian. And you know what that means. She's can't be copied.
My god is real
Goddess not god
Raffaella Venturini Dramatic.
😂 lol
Such depth and resonance from a 300-year old instrument and a 12-year old girl. Saw in a video that it's a Matteo Goffriller piece and was sponsored for her to play. She's also mentored by Pinchas Zukerman. Amazing girl.
I am not a violinist, nor do I know a great deal about classical at a technical level, but I love this piece and have heard many professional violinists’ renditions of it. This is the only version that makes me weep uncontrollably no matter what mood I am in. She evokes so much emotion in these 9 minutes, it’s truly overwhelming. Absolutely amazing.
@@tako3038 oh shush you annoying obsequious organ grinder. It’s obvious you don’t know violin and no one agrees with you. Your jealousy is so plain here.
@@tako3038 there is no understanding, just feeling....
I thought it was me only crying every time I watch this.
exaggeration
That part at 3:35 where she is smiling a little afterwards "damn im good!" :D. What a girl!
That smile was so subtle how did you catch it
THAT VIBRATO THO!!!!
Also 1:50
i see you guys coming from twoset too
@@n2g747 hmmm..maybe it is one of the perks of highly sensitive people I guess :D
This Genius Korean girl is a treasure of the world and a gift of God .
I just am intoxicated with her incomparable performance .

I don't have any idea about the technical aspects of playing violin. But listening to this piece feels like watching a movie with a great plot and a happy ending. I'll always come back here to listen/watch the movie.
And suddenly an Asian dad from nowhere:
Nice, now play it backwards.
and she will do it perfectly
actually musicians really do.... so crazy
her mather

Amicia Rosé Nah. Asian dads would be working their butts of to pay the $600 hourly lessons.
If u can play it forward, u can play it backwards
Her: Memorizes an entire piece.
Me: Can't even remember my own license plate number.
well, all instrument player can do that, when you are performing, you rely a lot on muscle memory.
Me: can’t remember how many letters are in my name without writing it out
i mean if you memorize ur license plate the amount of times she practiced this piece, you’d probably be able to memorize ur license plate haha
There is something called muscle memory
Wow, so many people who can't take a joke.
How fitting that this performance was hosted by the Heifetz institute, the sheer virtuosity of this young lady is jaw dropping..of Heifetz caliber indeed. Bravo, gorgeous & harrowing interpretation, absolutely beautiful throughout !
She plays with an old soul, amazing
Interviewer : How old are you?
The girl : I am 12 !
Interviewer : How many years of experience you have in playing violin?
The girl : 20 years.
Interviewer : HOW?
The girl : I practice 50 HOURS a day.
Ling ling?😂
She practices more than lingling. ... *impossible*
Not 40 hours a day but 50 hours, it is more than ling ling
I found out how! She's a stand user! She stopped time!
@@gachako4948 ZA WARUDO
My friend was like "YO THIS GIRL IS PLAYING FASTER THAN MY GRADES ARE FALLING!"
kktones lol
This piece is supposed to be fast
@@sohyoungrim118 damn you, flight of the bumblebee is overrated and it isnt even that hard
@@eternalelysium4944 but it's fast and that's the point
@@zhongchengjie7710 do non musicians like you associate fast with hard?
I listen every day. I am moved every time I hear it. It seems that billions of people are feeling the impression that one genius gives.
저 나이에 저렇게 깊은 울림이 있는지 너무 신기합니다
천재라고 밖에 설명할 수 없을것 같은
재능이 없으면 아무리 백날 연습해도
저 나이에 저곡을 저렇게 표현 하기 어려울 것 같아요
클래식에 문외한이고 어릴적 들었던 클래식은 지루하고 비슷한 음이 반복되서 졸렸는데
이 바이올린 연주는 꼭 저음이 목소리처럼 들리면서 끌리네요
바이올린은 정말 매력적인 악기인것같아요
As Brett said: "such bow control..."
Catherine Smith a heifetz instance :D
I N T E R E S T I N G
roses are red, violets are blue
no matter which classical performance you go to, there will always be ling ling comments haunting you
Hahahahahah true
Indeed
At 12, she probably have to study as well............
Hhhh I have never laughed as hard as like I do here
Good one😂
She looks like this is all so easy for her and also, I can tell she is really good.
I love her playing, she puts a different colour on this piece, played with real chutzpah
I feel like crying and I don't even know how to play a violin.
Hello Gabriel, it's me Gabriella..
I know how...and believe me, many times we play, we truly cry with tears!!! Just so much emotions collide inside, its unbearable...has to come out...
I played this when I was 17, and was part of my Diploma concert piece as well...but one thing what nobody else can say, but me, that my ancestor wrote the first part, what Sarasate based upon, is actually ...Lavotta János's c moll Adagio... and i had the privilege to learn it from a gypsy violinist, as per the title of this piece says!
Lavotta lived in 1800 in Habsburg-Hungarian Empire...the piece can be found on UA-cam as well!
Why?????
Tracy Zhao bc she is playing with emotions. so cool for that young age
exactly
before twoset came: *people talking about how nice the music is and the girl being super talented*
after twoset: lingling jokes
everyone have had enough already
ikr it's getting annoying honestly.
@@dangowo I think you mean "it's getting ''annoyLING".
I'll show myself out...
The REAL problem here is no one makes Violin memes than TwoSet so yeah. Hate to break it to u but ur cries wont be heard without replacement. People needs their memes bruh.
@@pathaleyguitar9763 I am a fan of twoset too, but do people really have to make multiple comments about "like if you came because of ling ling"???
@@m0n4rch911 I am a fan of twoset and their memes are funny. but sometimes it's kinda annoying for a classical videos like this are just filled with lingling jokes.
Her phrasing is perfect, her vibrato is amazing, and her bow control is inhuman.
10분이상 넘어가는
클래식음악을 듣는것은 60평생동안 처음인것같다
클래식잘모르지만 느낌적
느낌과 감동은 인생연륜으로 느낄수있다
고소현 비록 나이어리고
여약한 소녀이지만
연주만큼은 강하고
커다란 거장인것같다
와 수줍은 첫인사에 그렇지 못한 연주
When you realize that this is just her warmup piece
MerryMars whoa wHAT
？？？？？？
Wait, what?..... I'm a flute player and am incredibly intimidated by her and the pianist, but mostly by her.
this is just her warming the fuck up???
NaNi
I came after watching Henry's video, she is truly amazing!
Me too!
The technique and maturity on display here are outstanding, flawless with dynamics evoking such emotion. How someone so young is able to do this baffles me, truly outstanding.
im a gypsy I am a gypsy and I find that she manages to play gypsy music well👌💃🦔
타고난 천재다 .당연히 보이지 않는 곳에서 피눈물나는 노력을 했겠지만... 아무쪼록 육체적으로 아푸지 말고, 정신적으로 상처도 받지 말고 이대로 쭉 자라서 위대한 연주가가 되기를 바란다.
오 한글이다 😃😃😃
Allright I'm looking forward to her future performances

I'm not a musician and have no knowledge of classical music what so ever ... But every time I listen to this music from my library it touches my heart and make my mind easy in hard time...
벌써 몇번째 듣는지~~기성바이올리스트와는 매우 차별적인(과도한 모션과 테크닉과 기존 틀에 집중하는) 오로지 한음한음 집중하고있고,
본인스스로 이 곡을 좋아하는것이 보는 사람조차 음에서 모습에서 느껴지고 스스로 해석해낸다. 들을수록 볼수록 좋다
120번째 듣습니다.
늘 새롭습니다.
Who's here because of 2set violin
god she is great...
I am
Me
Me
yeah me too
