The level of preparation this man has is the level one should strive for when performing. Even with a crippling anxiety attack, his intonation was nearly perfect. Awesome violinist

Even he suffered so much, he is still the one who produced the best music on that stage.

How sad 😢 , I hope he recovers because he is a great virtuoso. 🎻

Bro what a beast, he still play everything well and in tune, two set has to see this

It looked to me like he was feeling sick from the moment he walked out on stage.

Poor guy. Thats what a nervous breakdown looks like.

Poor man. Performing as a classical musician of this caliber can be one of the most nerve-wracking things one can experience. Although it be an extremely rewarding career, it's no walk in the park. He is and shall always remain one of the finest violinists ever. Situations like this usually happens to only the best ones. Bravo, maestro.

This Video should remain here as a testament to the men and women that struggle with mental illness. Mr Li is brave and beautiful.

Li is known to suffering from panic attacks from time to time.

I thought it was just nausea and abdominal pain. I've had this exact reaction when not eating a smart dinner the night before.

I was moved when he bowed to the audiences again and again for not becoming able to continue the performance. I found his true spirit in trying to get through the performance even though he is deadly sick. It looks like he felt true tragedy of betraying the audiences. I really respect him in the way he face his performance and his audiences.

There are clear indications that Li may have Tourette's Syndrome. It is entirely possible to have TS and play the violin as superbly as Li can do. Normally, as in the case of a neuro-surgeon with TS where I live, the compulsive behaviour mysteriously ceases when the person engages in specialised activity. Just as the symptoms go as soon as that surgeon picks up a medical instrument, so normally would Li's cease once he wields the bow. The problem on this occasion is that the symptoms took hold full force when he wasn't playing. A sad situation indeed, but I must hope that this is an isolated incident for him.

If not watching the scene just hearing it, I can hardly imagine he was suffering severely in the situation. Playing violin was engraved in his soul. It is still clear perfect performance no matter where or when. ..

let me add Mr. Li is a REMARKABLE talent

Quite sadly, as a Chinese, I can tell you that even with all those economic growth we have, China still greatly falls behind on mental health issues compared to other developed countries. People usually treat psychological disorders simply as the sufferers’ shield or covering for their own weakness and incompetence, because of their cruelty and ignorance.

None of us is perfect. I would feel so happy if I could play any instrument as well as he. I suspect that most or all of the people throwing insults at the man for a failed performance would go out of their way to show sympathy for a pretty girl under the same circumstances. How much of our lives do we need to spend being angry or critical when there is no existential need to do so? If I had the opportunity to overcome my limitations of age, health, finances, and a few other barriers, just to go to Shantu, China and attend a concert, explore the restaurants, meet people, take a few pictures, I would happily give up my "right" to be presented with a perfect concert. I've been a sailor of yachts; learned to work on engines, tend the foredeck, cook meals under sail, all of those ordinary skills, and one thing I've learned is that boats need care and attention, things break, no trip is certain to be without unexpected problems. Trouble on the journey is part of the game. Show some tolerance, friends. Aren't we all on the same team - Or, should we not be? Random thoughts. Thank You.

He has had difficulties with his mental health and diabetes, and has been hospitalized due to ill health in recent years. Not sure what happened here.

@@pluutoopI’d reckon the violin was so easy for him that it wasn’t able to make him concentrate on the music, but rather his mentality instead. For us normal humans, we have many things to distract ourselves from the mind. For Chuan yun li, the violin wasn’t enough a distraction, and further showed his distress while playing the violin perfectly. He must have went through something unimaginable for him to run through a piece beautifully, yet not completely focused on the music because of his mental illness

First than all I think playing the violin results in something that transport his mind into another stage (compare when she is performing and when is is not). What an incredible violinist...besides being very in tune and articulated (every note immaculate) he has an INCREDIBLE musicality, which is incredible contrasting with his behavior (punctual comment). I only can say that I am amazed and I hope he got better after this concert. I’m wondering what is in the mind of this wonderful musician

相信傳韻承受了太大壓力，不懂釋放！我六，七年前已經在音樂會中看見他演奏到在台上跌倒，當時還以為只是單一事件。。。神童的路真的不易走。

They needed to stop this performance right during the first movement when he started faltering. This is inhumane.

This guy is brilliant in music making. I hope he can resolve his own issues soon.

Frankly speaking, he played the violin very well.

Rather than crazy, he looks like he was feeling ill already and tried to make it pass. "No, I don't have a terrible headache, I'm just passionately feeling the music", "no, my stomach doesn't burn, I'm just tying my just".

I hope he is better. Please post 2018 videos.

to every commenters who cannot read Chinese and jumped into conclusions as to the reason for Li's collapsing on stage - he had a *stomachache* but insisted on performing. Nothing to do with his mental state.

According to the Chinese description at the start of this video, the violinist had stomach pain during this performance at Shantou, Guangdong Province, China on 8/18/2013.

Beautiful, amazing and heartbreaking

Most everyone on this thread is impressed with his continuation in spite of his distress. I am not. I think it was foolish. The human body is the most magnificent and remarkable instrument on Earth. When it communicates to you. You should listen. He was so determined to fulfill the wants of the audience, yet ignored the needs of his one and only true possession. People take more care of their material possessions than they do their bodies. He can have other performances. He can purchase other violins. He only has ONE body. If he dropped dead the next day, they would have another musician in his place.

Me neither. Nor have I heard of it happening. Is it for real? That one lady in the violin section noticed something was 'off' right from the start. Is this for real? A traveling circus? I don't know what I just saw, but the conductor handled it as well as could be expected; but the players who 'took over' should not have had to do that. security? Makes me think it was all planned out this way.

Such a strong soul that he insisted to continue with his performance even he had no place to hide his pain on stage. For most people it would have been embarrassing enough to quit the performance.

That's in show business what's called 'a real trooper'

I'm reminded of the fellow who played the Rachmaninoff 3rd Piano Concerto for a competition, then as soon as he was done, had a complete mental breakdown and was in and out of institutions for years before being rediscovered playing casually at a restaurant.

the solitude of genius is evident here. Even geniuses suffer from mental problems: but he didn't have anyone around to tell him to stop and get better.
