The best, the most impressive and by far the most beloved of me, the violin works. It's a feeling in your chest when you're short of breath, your throat grows and tears flow into your eyes. This is music. This is beauty.

1:47 that chord from the whole orchestra :O

I think this very well may be the single greatest violin showpiece of the 19th century. Kogan's smooth, buttery, and powerful playing has the perfect balance of sweetness and richness. The harmonics kill me every time I hear them. The purity, it's like an angel calling. Or the devil.

Kogan displays his perfect technique wonderfully.

How can a human being achieve such superhuman perfection?

Lots of work, daily practice, talent, predisposition. Some excell at concert gongs, others at violin.

This piece always gives me goosebumps. This interpretation is also just perfect! Loved it!

i’ve watched dozens of videos trying to find the best recording of this piece but i always come back to this recording. the interpretation and phrasing is simply the best. i also like the age of the recording. i think it suits the piece

Magnificent piece!!

Beautiful piece ! Thank you so much :)

Perfection, thy name is Kogan.

Kogan and Wieniawski! Both are geniuses!

It is obviously Kogan. Some nice playing there :D

11:29 So beautiful!

Wonderful, just wonderful

Ricci always has more air in his tone (more spread out high overtones) and is more even in sound across the strings and positions. Kogan has a more focused sound and doesn't hide the difference in sound the different strings/positions makes. He rather seems to like it :) So this IS Kogan ;)

INGENIOUS and FANTASTIC! BRAVI TUTTI from Acapulco!

Brilliante!

Bravo super fantasia brilliance

Be aware future musicians. When there's "brillante" in the title, it means hell difficult for player 😂😂

I think : Leonid Kogan violin, Evgeny Svetlanov & Moscow Philarmonic Orchestra

Super👍👍👍👍

7:00 ghost busters lol

12:52😍😍😍😍

Bravo

called fantaisie brillante bc i could only play it in my fantasies

What tuning is this in? The low A at the beginning is ~113hertz instead of 110. Or is this just normal for orchestra because they tune to the hardest instrument? Normally historical tunings are lower and not higher. (1865 is possible that they chose a bit higher key at that point in time, but even then lower is more likely.) I tuned my electric piano to 113 so I could play along.

a lot of old recordings i hear are tuned higher. it could be the audio being slightly distorted or maybe they just liked it that way. either way, it sounds nice

beautiful. could you give me more information about the piece? for example who plays it? etc.. I love it. it's very pure and full of humanity. Like the auto biography of the composer. thank you

Nice to hear with orchestra. Check out Oscar Han’S version a very talented violinist from Australia

Lol at 6:55 but hardly noticeable though as the rest of the piece played terrifically.
