Backstage with Peter Oundjian: Itzhak Perlman 

I adore this man. I wish I were talented enough to be his student. He is endearing beyond words.

I really want one of these interviews done with James Ehnes this year. There's not that many interviews with him online and he has such great personality and insight.

Itzhak Perlman is very great Violinist, teacher and good conductor... together hy speak very good, very interesting....i like him very much

Si pudieran poner la entrevista subtitulada en español sería bueno para los que gustamos de su música y porque no de su persona sumamente agradable y aleccionadora

Thank you very much. I remember attending a concert with Itzhak. One of my most memorable concerts ever.

Loved whT he said about the importance of language to communicate what you might want hear without criticizing

I almost threw up when he said paganini molto perpetuo in double stops in the right tempo...

You're very welcome! We're really glad you enjoy them. More to come!

Thank you for this lovely interview. BTW, did anyone notice how long his left hand nails are🤔😂 check 5'20"

fascinating conversation! interesting question - when did you know you "made" it? i would have thought two times on Ed Sullivan as a young teenager would have been a clue.

"What is your concept of this note?" Ouch!

Thanks for the feedback Reade.

Shudup and play your fiddle!! Just kidding! Thanks for posting!
