👋We invite you to watch the 16th International Henryk Wieniawski Violin Competition, which will be fully broadcast on our 'Wieniawski Society' channel. The competition will be held between 7 and 21 Oct. 2022. Official website: competition.wieniawski.com
To do this AND Sibelius in one night is simply insane. Who cares if she messed up at the very end of basically the hardest violin concerto that is still played to date. There's a reason why she won even with her glaring mistakes.

Sure... it's been played live before. He probably played it at around the time of his Wieniawski studio recording when he was in top form. Try finding a program these days. You'll be hard pressed to find a violinist who keeps it in his repertoire for play on short notice. Maybe you'll see it played in Poland. It doesn't reach the technical heights of Britten or Schoenberg, but it is absolutely exhausting. Wieniawski is on par with Paganini 1, but longer...

Ok..my 10 cents as a violinist and conductor.....this is indeed one of the most demanding works to handle in a live performance....and I haven't heard another one live that was significantly better than Ms. Yoon's performnce here. I commend her for having the guts....for her genuine musicianship, tone, expression, and formidable technique. She was deserving of the award.

I am totally showing this video to those people who are complaining about "violinists losing old-world romantic charm". Soyoung perfectly combines modern technical perfection and romantic lyricism which you would hear in the turn of the century.
i was smiling at the beginning, very proud of her tenths, how much work she had put on it to make it that clear of sound and intonation, only to cry immediately after. her interpretation is just beautiful, delivering whatever the story behind those sad melodies just right.
She practices 40 hours a day.

The more I realize the tremendous work she has done so far, i.e. the Sibelius, it just seems superhuman to be able to pull off the Wieniawski no. 1.....a composition studiously avoided in live performance by many professionals. Im looking forward to seeing more of her current performances on YT.
Honestly, she is one of the most underrated musicians or maybe least looked for ones despite her being such a virtuoso..

If she did Wieniawki 2 perfectly, I'd wonder whether she could do a harder concerto. With this - there is no wondering, she did the best she could do.

All you nay-sayers obviously do not realize that this concerto is one of, if not, the most devilishly difficult in the repertoire! The second Wieniawski is a walk in the park compared to the first! I would rather do the Sibelius and the Paganini #1 back to back than tackle this concerto! It demands EVERYTHING from the player!
She deserves a better orchestra!

She put the other violinists to shame with her technique, musicianship, and intonation, tone, just all aspects. It's not that the others were bad they had many amazing qualities to their playing but Ms. Yoon had them all perfectly.
Wonderful bow control at the entry of the third movement👍
She is incredible. This is a very demanding concerto, and rarely played. Fun fact: Wieniawski was a 19th Century violinist whom other violinists who had heard him, reported that he possessed the living continuous vibrato comparable to violinists of the 20th Century. In the following generation, Ysaÿe was influenced by him. Of course, we have to rely on those reports of violinists who spanned both eras, he not living into the time of recording. Massart relayed his recollections to young Kreisler. Quick note: Her technique is nearly second-nature - that is, she doesn't focus so much on technique in her performance that she has lost the fluidity and rhythm of the music. In the greatest of violinists, it appears as if the violin is playing itself. As Bruno Walter praised, in the eulogy of a great violinist of a bygone era, "He did not play the violin; he became the violin."
The suspense of the opening violin solo is exciting. Soyoung delivers with perfection. It's a beautiful concerto and it comes alive exquisitely in her sizzling performance.
I had a bargain CD featuring this concerto and fell in love with it. I was surprised that it wasn't more well-known.
amazing Soyoung Yoon!!!!! I remember that when I followed this online competition, you were the best with a wide difference between the other competitors I love this concert, also the number 2
My favorite.
WOW! That was a great! & Bravo! It was so good that she constantly playing last a few measures on 3rd mvt. That was just slipped, NOT a mistake. The orchestra catches so well. Soyoung Yoon plays so rich and heart warming sound. Her Wieniawski concerto no. 1 is one of the best rank among the all violinists. 연주가 너무나 훌륭하고, 자랑스러운 대한민국의 딸 입니다. 감동입니다. 바이올린은 활을 줄위에 비비는 Rubbing Instrument 인데 어떻게 줄위에 비비느냐는 마음에서 나오기 때문에 윤소영님의 품성과 인내와 감성이 비에냐프스키 콘체르토에 너무나 잘 뭍어 나옵니다. 저는 지휘자로서 초정하여 연주 하고 싶습니다. 훌륭한 연주에 감사 드립니다.
To be quite honest, I'm not usually a fan of these young violinists who make the rounds of these competitions, but I have to say Ms. Yoon is quite amazing in both her consummate musicianship and unshakable technical mastery.....!
The best concert fis moll on KZread. Congratulations.

But before that you don't really have ones. This concerto is absolutely playable! You only need to figure out what to play, but it´s not that it´s absolutely impossible to play. I can know it since i am learning it right now.

An immense beauty that brought me to tears.

Perfecto.
Le premier mouvement est construit sur deux thèmes contrastés, le premier en rythme pointé et d'abord hésitant et le second en si bémol majeur (présenté par les violoncelles), large et expressif. Ces thèmes sont, à leur tour, repris et ornés par le soliste avec une formidable virtuosité, en utilisant des doubles cordes et des notes harmoniques, notamment dans la cadence, ainsi que le registre supérieur extrême du violon. Le deuxième mouvement, Preghiera (prière), est un court interlude lyrique en la majeur, où il est donné beaucoup d'importance aux bois de l'orchestre et aux cors. Il conduit droit au Rondo conclusif, une pièce colorée et vive avec un épisode contrasté en si majeur et exigeant un jeu de bravoure, mais sans l'extrême virtuosité du premier mouvement (ce qui suggère qu'il a été composé plus tôt). La caractéristique frappante de ce mouvement est le fait que la partie solo peut être, et est probablement destinée à être jouée sur la corde de sol, montrant ainsi la richesse du son du violon.
this is something unique...amazing!!!
