Music: Anne-Sophie Mutter performing

on the Lord Dunn-Raven Stradivarius of 1710
A real LADY - in the best sense of the word.
Eine wahre Dame - im besten Sinne des Wortes. Großartig!
This woman is a tiger; I love she playing the Beethoven's violin sonatas.
What a woman, amazing mind! A living legend
She always speak so inteligently
The best violonist of the 21st century.
Beethoven and Liszt educated themselves by reading history, philosophy, poetry, the Bible, religion, and music theory--as well as having studied with excellent music teachers. Scriabin told Horowitz's parents that they should make young Vladimir into an "educated" man by reading and studying things outside of piano literature and outside of music in general. Self-education throughout one's life, as well as daily living with the hardships of life that come our way, help us to become "fuller" human beings.
Yes the Bible as well!👍😀
not sure if anyone cares but if you are bored like me during the covid times you can stream pretty much all the latest series on instaflixxer. Been watching with my girlfriend for the last couple of months :)
@Derrick Howard yea, I've been using instaflixxer for since november myself :)
Such a great lady! Her playing and her personality is beyond approao!
Excellent. A personally deep lesson for all human beings.
Thanks so much for this inspiring advice, which re-expresses the standard of greatness in the arts. The humility, the integrity, the intuitive conviction needed must be renewed in our era. I'm so grateful for your voice and example!
We ironically live in a new golden age but it's fast going to shit due to tiktokking influencer trends. Mutter is a great artist but she sounds almost Sarcastic describing the modern all-present sound as anathema to her own playing which could be characterized as such.
As a poet, this interview moves and impresses me deeply. May these values of hers be inherited and carried on by each generation of serious artists. I would humbly add that I wish she had articulated the idea of crisis and victory--the enduring of bleak darkness leading to effulgent triumphs, not os selfhood but of the advance of civilization! I so appreciate her reference to Rilke.
So true, really the best advice for all people
Great violonist and powerfull female in terms of intellect. Simply great personality.
🙏🙏🎻🎻 I respect Anne-Sophie 😁🎻
Very nice. Awesome. Plus beautiful.
łał jestem pod ogromnym wrażeniem! Jak ona pięknie mówi. :) nie dość ,że pięknie gra ,to jeszcze ma taki dar wymowy...
This is true ... but it takes many years for water to smooth a stone ...
so true.
People who really suffer cannot afford to buy instruments, and are never heard. It would be nice to hear what kind of art they would produce, if they had the opportunity.
Your comment is very good!!! For her for example, I am sorry if I become rude of her, in many things she is right, :BUT: for her is someone a good string Player, if she, or he has a "Top Instrument " à la Stradivari, Guarneri, Da Saló, Amati, ans someone who cannot afford "such a costy expensive Instrument ", she or he is not interessting for her at all! Does not matter if she or he, applies for her "A.S.M Foundation " even these Musicians "should have (must have) Top hugely expensive Instruments, otherwise NO CHANCE To Be ACCEPTED OF HER!!! Even she,or he is brillant Musician String Player, if Violon,Viola Cello, Doubble Bass!!!
All the best for you 🍀🍀🍀🙋♂️
❤️
I love you

< Talk Classcal> Forum < Sexualisation of women in the classical music industry> Time and time again people have certainly opined on the presentation of female performers, wether it be Yuja Wang's dress, Lara St. John's CD covers or Anne Sofie Mutter's pose (recently those violinists were pointed out in the worst cd covers thread). Each of these cases, according to different people, have come down to a general conclusion that sexist inclinations of today have influenced their physical appearance (on varying levels). Even on this site there have been debates as to modesty on stage, the importance of appearance, wether women should conduct an orchestra and so on, which all end up boiling down to the same (if not a similar) debate.
It's not boring It's exciting.
Yes but I think it's just presentation of the performers.
Appearance can be everything in any show.
Of course Anne Sophie belongs to an orchestra, well the look at the conductor and his attire. Very well dressed.It has to be important though she looked very cute in that yellow dress playing the viloin.Lol
If you do something publicly, expect to make money off the public you should also expect the public may comment on you, and those comments of course won't be just something you want to hear. Comments are greatly influenced by the actions of the person. Dress as a hooker (or an astronaut or something equally weird) on stage and a LOT more people will comment on your appearance and it's completely natural and it's just a reaction, freedom of expression.
It's just last couple of decades that more and more we want to control what other _say_, censor the media, social media, and each other generally. I understand if one wants to hear only what they like but it's restricting freedom and at some point others may do it to you and you'll find it suddenly unfair...
Also, in order to become a good musician, you must first learn to listen. Now that is something umans are terrible at, and thus is success rate in music over the past 3 centuries or so, very low, unsurprisingly, and getting lower and lower so far. Rachmaninov was the last great composer, and there is absolutely no hope wutsoever that we will get another one any time soon, if ever.
Duh...
Yea, most musicians becoming famous after Nigel Kennedy (I believe he is the last good one, more or less) are stuck at step 1 of the academy: "First, technical perfection as something natural." They don't possess the technical perfection necessary to play music properly, yet they boast with small technical accomplishments which are completely irrelevant for music listeners. Non-technical (classical) pieces (hits) are played even worse. But that is really not the property of "young generation of musicians", as most famous ones in the last century (Argerich, Pollini, Horrowitz, Arrau, Cliburn, and so on) predominantly produced music of very poor quality, and boasted "zomg awesome technical skillz shift1111", which are today pretty mediocre. Rubinstein noted the same problem many times. Albeit I don't remember his age in those interviews, this "fashion trend" began probably in 1970s, and even earlier. Especially when young musicians are concerned. The problem of the currently young musicians (older than 20-30 years) is that the success rate of producing a good musician plummeted from 2-3 per generation (a decade) to, yep, 0. Now I am mostly referring to pianists here, as I don't know much nor listen to violin, since Anne-Sophie Mutter, Nigel Kennedy and Shlomo Mintz recorded everything I am interested in. And after them (born around 1960), only Gil Shaham became a great violin player. Interestingly, Kissin and Lugansky are the last 2 good pianists, also born around 1970. Shaham -1971., Kissin -1971. and Lugansky - 1972. They are the last good generation of musicians (that got recording contracts), and far less popular than the previous generations.
But aren't all humans born a real human being? What else can they be, a cat?
such baloney ........
Why do you think so?
