the cat just wanted to hear augustin play paganini. very relatable.

And another thing is, Augustin seems like he has the most pure heart when he is playing or even during interviews. So, I wouldn't be surprised if he played for cats in real life.

For those who want to know, the piece Augustin is playing while the cat is outside the theatre is Ysaye Violin Sonata Number 3.

My cat says "Meow".."Meow!" "Augustin is the greatest violin virtuoso!" "Augustin is a great violin teacher!" "Augustin is an extremely talented movie producer!" and the list goes on... Being a cat lover myself, I absolutely love Augustin's capturing the essence of those cats in the animation (should be nominated for the "Oscars.") Meow! :-)

4:24 fun fact: that is a ballet step called pas de chat which is French for step of the cat

Brett and Eddy should definitely watch this.

To be honest, they probably have! They adore him and Brett even interviewed him once.

Criminal that this has so few views while musical pablum gets billions. Thank you for creating this. My children love it.

That was so cute! :3

Nobody plays that well with ice cold fingers. Augustine: hold my violin case...

Augustin was a cat all along?! Makes sense, hard to believe a human would make such beautiful sounds come from a violin.

Speaking for the three of us, thanks to all of you for your wonderfully supportive comments. If you'd really like to help us, you can 1 - watch it again and 2 - get JUST ONE friend to watch it as well. On my bucket list 'get to 100,000 views'.

I've been showing this to everyone :). Our whole family saw Augustin perform this past June with the Minnesota Orchestra (Beethoven/Berlioz), and still talk about the entire performance around the dinner table.

I try to schedule my trips to Vail each summer so I can see Augustin perform @Vail Bravo. Fell in love with him about 4 stanzas in... He's been my musical crush ever since.

Quite frankly, the greatest violinist of our time. Enchanting and mesmerizing! I have seen Augustin in concert twice. Words can't describe his ability because it comes from within and the audience can feel it.

Deeneesy - no, words can’t describe his genius. and it does come from his soul. glad to find someone who feels the same way i do. i’ve heard him once, but only in a quartet - can’t wait to hear just him alone. 🌹 (new york city)

Truly one of the greatest talents of this generation. A wonderful person and this shows another side to his personality. Thank you for doing this Augustin

I'd much rather this cat animation way more than the movie cats. I'd pay to watch this on cinema... It was soo good....and unbelievably under rated

Oh this is beautiful.... the expressions on the cats was top notch

A wonderful piece for introducing children to classical music. So beautiful!!!

This is sooo unbelievably gorgeous, magical, creative, heart warming, humorous and unique!! This will surely become a classic piece of film that will be relevant for generations!! Hadelich has an enduring charm and impeccable style that is simply unrivaled - and this little piece gives us a peek into his personality even beyond what enraptures us in his stage performances! Thank you for the vision and hard work that has paid off wildly in this video! You are the best Augustin!!

this was more than i expect.

this is the cutest thing ever!!!

Without a doubt, Paganini's best work of all time. And such adorable animation! Very interesting blend of anthropomorphism and real cat behavior, taking cat videos to a whole new level. I wonder whether Mr. Hadelich actually has any cats. Whether he does or not this video is exactly what KZread was made for.

I read on the web that he has many cats from his family farm. He must be inspired by them.

I once got to talk to him live and I still own a picture with him.

LOL, I'm dying! The cat ballet! Such collaboration between Hadelich, Paganini, and Tam King! BTW: love the font choices for the credits.

That was A PERFECT animation to that music!! I enjoyed it so much! Would love more like this to show the children!!

That's so adorable! Impeccable violin playing. Bravo!!!

Grandioso, majestuoso,genial! Mi admiración desde México!!!!

How have I not discovered this earlier. Absolutely adorable!

I watched this about ten times. I feel as though I am being invited to see the musician as he sees himself. I can do that. And, oh my, does he ever play a note that I do not love?

Cats dancing a ballet with Augustin Hadelich playing the musical score! The best of ALL worlds!❤️😸🎻

Beautiful piece and film ❤️

Love how the cat does a pas de chat in 4:20

Now we all know that he for sure likes cats.

Mit dieser Musik und dem Interpreten... würden sich bestimmt sicher alle Katzen im Quartier geehrt fühlen!

I LOVED this!

We are so fortunate to have Augustin here in Tyler this past weekend. He is amazingly talented and the sweet music he coaxes out of his instrument is mesmerizing. Thank you Augustin, a wonderful concert indeed.

Классный мультик) У меня дома живут три кошки. Обязательно им покажу)

PARABÉNS e obrigada!

SO DAMN COOL I CAN'T EVEN- beautiful art, beautiful violin playing, storyline *chef's kiss

omg my two loves violin and cats

Davvero bello e particolare, non avevo ancora sentito questo capriccio di Paganini! Un grande violinista dei nostri tempi

A very too-late comment from us... Thank you for this cute video.... My kid likes it... Replay it many times... Adore the kitties in the videos... And also inspire with you! One day (after many many replay!) when practice his piece, he said: look, I can play fast like Augustin... 😇 Thank you again 🌻🙏

This is so creative and gorgeous!!!

Fantastic! Thanks.

This is BRILLANT and smart and beautiful and our little musicians have absolutely loved it. Thank you for making such poetic stuff

ENCANTADOR. FELICIDADES GRAN INTERPRETE, ESCUCHO AL MISMO PAGANINI EN LA MARAVILLOSA INTERPRETACIÓN.

Fantastic. It is so much creative.

I totally love this piece animation.

It was a nice short film, I enjoyed

Hermososooo 😍😍😍😍😍😍

That was soo cool!

Come i gatti di notte sotto stelle sbiadite…. Magnificent, even if the bow hair in the animation appears to point in the wrong direction much of the time :). Reminds me of the wacky fantasies Maxim Vengerov invites students to conjure up in his masterclasses to liven up their playing, and definitely authentically in the spirit of Paganini who played his violin even in jail and to any creature that would listen and was ready to be uplifted. Grazie ancora, Augustin!

Thanks for this video! ❤️
