Bravo ! Vivat and Cheers for Stradivari, as well for all the Great Violinists and Violists !

Hi Daniel, thank you for this! With the video, you did a great service for your fellow string players. I have been very curious to learn more about Toscha Seidel's violin

Thank you for this! It made my day. I love all of your videos and your feelings about Toscha Seidel but this one is the most meaningful to me. Very few people still remember Seidel; they don't realize that there was a contemporary of Heifitz who was considered an equal of his. When I grew to be big enough for a full-size violin, my parents bought my violin directly from Seidel. Obviously, a way lesser instrument than his Strad, I was told that he occasionally used it when playing with an orchestra. Fortunately, I kept it though I stopped playing for about 60 years. I recently picked it up and you've been helping me work on some of my skills.

One more anecdote: When my parents bought my violin, my father jokingly told him that they would buy it if he would promise that their daughter would be able to play as well as he did. Seidel was offended. I gather that that was typical of his personality, no sense of humor. Thank you for your reply. It made my day. BTW, I'm finding Sevcik to be very clear and helpful

I had the privilege of getting to own a strad copy I found on a auction I got for an awesome deal it had a way better tone than the violin I have now which throws me off every time I play it on the a and e string any tips for getting a better warmer tone on a cheaper violin?

Hello , would you have an accompaniment to this version of Intermezzo? I was obssessed with Toscha's version. Jascha's available, but its different and does not touch me at all. Violin is absolutely phenomenal.... thx

It was a great idea for Daniel to play this extraordinary instrument before it disappears into the collection of the purchaser, until maybe it is loaned to someone deemed the right person to either preserve and/or showcase it in public. It has a distinctive sound -- round, mellow, human -- that is recognizable as Seidel's violin no matter who is playing it. But Dan really brought out the best in it during this short time with it, and it makes you wonder what he could do with it over months of getting used to it. Violins sound so different depending on the environment, the recording equipment and setup, and the player, and I wasn't sure I'd be able to recognize this instrument when it is played by different people in different rooms, like the Tarisio guy in another video, TwoSet and now Dan. I've heard recordings on KZread of student instruments under $1000 that sounded very powerful, full, and good across strings, that I'm sure if were recorded on a stage or in a different room, would sound awful compared to good instrument. Speaking of Strads, I stumbled on a very entertaining 2022 novel recently in my library's online "Hoopla" audio collection, about the hilarious and horrifying vicissitudes of owning a Strad. I've never enjoyed a novel about a violinist and his violin so much. It is THE VIOLIN CONSPIRACY by Brendan Slocumb. The main character's experience in this novel sounds implausible. Taken as a whole, combining the story of a violin and a violinist, it probably is, but it doesn't make the novel less fun to read. My own real story, first in music (flute mainly, but I played four other instruments, all self-taught until college due to poverty), and then in something totally different, non-musical, which took me to Brazil and around Central and South America, away from the conservatory in Vienna where I was preparing for the Geneva International Competition, is almost equally hard to believe. Daniel knows about doing something people find hard to believe. I mean, I thought Oliveira had a late start on violin, because he started when he was 9. Just to be assigned a teacher and play in orchestra, I had to play a violin audition in front of him in 1978, just weeks after he won the freaking Tchaikovsky competition, sharing the gold medal. I had the worst musical/mental meltdown I've ever had at an audition. Well, at that point I'd only played the violin for a few months, except for when I was eleven, and taught myself to play on a $3 instrument my father got at an auction. Isn't $3 some kind of auction record for a violin?

What E string was used there? Is that an Evah E?

Lol Daniel, I see you do the same thing to your Korfker that I do.

What model is your Ryan violin based on? And is it possible for a violinmaker like Andrew to, let's say, adjust a violin to make it more ex-Seidel-like? :)

My violin is a 1737 del Gesu model. As Andrew explains in my other video which you can check out "Everything a violinist needs to know about maintenance, repair, adjustment...", adjusting a violin isn't "making it sound like X kind of violin" or "to the taste preference of some player". It's essentially technical: how can the post/bar/bridge be so that there is maximal resonance, balance, breadth and clarity to the sound. I wish the alchemy you describe was possible :)

@DanielKurganov

I have tried some Strads with more "interesting" upper register, but other than that, this violin pretty much takes the cake. My violin is very different from this one, being a del Gesu model. It has a deep and broad sound, also with great power. The Strad cuts through a bit more. It's just a powerhouse. In some sense, your ability to better shop for instruments by playing something amazing to have a model is dependent on whether you can indeed play the Strad in a way that exploits its amazing capabilities. It takes some time to discover those elements, and then you can indeed search for it (or other things) in other violins. On a basic level, yes, you can get the sound of a good Strad in your ear, surround yourself with 100 good German violins, and see which one 'comes closest" in terms of basic power and richness. However, at the same time, different instruments don't exist on the same linear spectrum. There could a be a good German fiddle that has very different qualities from the Strad, but is still the best fiddle of the group.

People usually have their preferences, and strings tend to have some generalizable characteristics that are consistent across violins. This violin was set up to have max power, and that it does. The strings are in line with that approach - higher tension, rich, projecting, strong

What do you have to say about the Paris blind tests, where none of the experts assembled could reliably pick the Strads from modern instruments of good quality?

@DanielKurganov

2 жыл бұрын

It’s an interesting test for sure, and proves that modern instruments can be of the highest quality and suitable for demanding soloists. There are some issues with that test of course…for example, none of the old instruments were allowed to be adjusted, and strings weren’t allowed to be changed, so you don’t know whether they are in their best playing condition. Also it takes some time to truly discover what these instruments can do. Ask anyone that plays one, they’ll say about a year or so. There’s also instrument fatigue, which can often happen when you’re shopping for a violin, for example-meaning that you stop being as sensitive to the particularities of an instrument. Without that sensitivity you risk chopping special qualities of any instrument, new or old. All of that being said, I’m a big believer in modern instruments, I love mine, and I think they’re almost at the same level as the best Strads and Guarneris.

It's not bashing to say it, and it doesn't detract from the near-perfect build quality of some Strads (even if they've been tweaked a lot over the years...)

Should they be used in Bach and Haendel? No, of course not. However, in Paganini, Brahms, etc. they can be applied in measured quantity. In the compositions of Kreisler for example, it would be sacrilege to not use the same amount that Kreisler himself used. Kreisler, Elman, Heifetz, and others of that era played lushly and beautifully. If you do not like so much, that is your personal preference, but do not condemn others for their use of the enhancements!
