I wouldn't post this if it weren't worth listening to again and again. What an awesome display of technical genius and virtuosity! Let me know what you think - I have half a dozen other recordings of this cadenza.
By the way, Salvatore Accardo was the first violinist in history to record all 6 Paganini Violin Concertos in 1974. He made quite the buzz back then, according to my dad, but I'm sure nobody's heard of him today. Buy the CD and you won't be disappointed.

There is no one better. Salvatore Accardo is the master of kings, the king of masters when it comes to playing Paganini.

@MrGunterguerrero 14 лет назад

Salvatore Accardo is the best Paganini's performer of our times !

@msiu 16 лет назад

I actually think that this cadenza doesn't show Accardo at his fiery best, because he's mostly following the usual Sauret cadenza here, whereas in the other 5 concerti, he came up a lot of his own stuff, which is even more technically impressive.

@AlexanderArsov 4 года назад

Even very casual violin fans such as myself are very familiar with Salvatore Accardo. Those Paganini concertos with Dutoit from the mid-1970s are among the very few truly great violin recordings. Accardo surpassed even himself. His late recording of the same works for EMI, in which he also conducts Orchestra da Camera Italiana, is nowhere near that dazzling.

I love Paganini! Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

@AChainreyes 14 лет назад

@MrGunterguerrero Total agree withyou...Accardo is the best!!!... regards,

Its great you put that up!Well,i am his student.i have all the recordings of him.I will put in some days also the concerto for four violins from vivaldi with him(and me 4th violin).i think is the best interpretation ever.

@singinginachurch 16 лет назад

Love the cover art. Great Video! Great Music!

@timichiban 16 лет назад

Very nice.

@genmaximus110 16 лет назад

I have Accardo playing all of Paganini's violin concertos on vinyl record. This is a very nice cadenza.

@heystopwiththattv 16 лет назад

Badass Thanks for putting this up :]

@kalr737 16 лет назад

This interpretation is amazing. It's always nice to hear different rendition of this concert by another master. That being said, anyone interested in hearing another amazing interpretation should seek out Gil Shaham's.

@genmaximus110 15 лет назад

I have Accardo playing all 6 on vinyl. It's quite a nice set. :)

@zaokoyechatma 15 лет назад

Oh,yes.Surely he is this guy is the best. Now cant I have my own best violinest

@ZiggyTheDawg 10 лет назад

I actually liked shlomo mintz's cadenze from this piece. He really gets the crazy virtuosity of paganini and goes all out in technical show-offs without straying to far off the themes, yet also not staying to close.

@GSYBE631 15 лет назад

The violinist in the lead-in you refer to might be Accardo playing along with the orchestra...impossible to know though. Absolutely agree with you on all counts!

@blichilde 16 лет назад

I agree with dfxr for Vengerov,but Kavakos is a genius. BTW,I find Accardo wonderful.

@aimson 16 лет назад

Oh, I'm sure. But I didn't post this because of technical quality. I'm a musician not a technician. I posted this because Accardo plays this cadenza as if he is on fire. He is a true virtuoso and I wanted to share. By the way, where did you find Kogan's cadenza? I want to hear!

@cornel999 16 лет назад

i bought Accardo's recording of the 6 soon after it came out. liked it, still do, big Paganini fan, but Accardo's not my fav. check out Massimo Quarta's website (via google). you can listen to his entire recordings online, incl all 6 Paganini. he's the best. there's also a picture of him and Accardo trying out a violin.

@ednutcracker 15 лет назад

Accardo has it!

@aimson 16 лет назад

Wow, really? I have been listening to the set for the past 2 weeks over and over again. I absolutely love all of #5, 1st of #1, and 3rd of #3 (la campanella). I agree that they get tiresome, especially if you listen to all 6 front to back in one sitting. But the invention is in the technique and it is all over the place in every concerto.

@aimson 16 лет назад

I like this cadenza the best and have heard a dozen different recordings of it - maybe that's why I'm so impressed. I am not as familiar with the other concerti but I will say that his cadenzas are just generally amazing. I was originally thinking of doing a montage of all 6 cadenzas to compare in one recording - a good idea you think?

@lottaart7848 4 года назад

who wrote this cadenza?

@Iaido_Tests 3 года назад

@@lottaart7848 Emile Sauret.

@remusrimbu2 15 лет назад

i have also 6recordings whit this cadenza: 1Accardo 2Markov 3Vengerov Those are the best!

@rapter9800 14 лет назад

Do you have the rest of the concerto? They aren't in the suggestion box and a search on youtube yields nothing

@jin12345678 14 лет назад

his playing harkens back to 19th century tradition with more pure,fiery tone and expressive vibrato and tone color IMO

@solowinterwolf 12 лет назад

I'VE heard of him.

@remoremoli 13 лет назад

@MrGunterguerrero è vero, condivido questo parere !

@MrFpam 12 лет назад

The fourth has a lot of good music. There is a fine recording with Grumiaux (probably not available now).

@gigiontube 14 лет назад

@clovis2012 Did you listen to Leonidas Kavakos?

@blichilde 16 лет назад

Seguo entrambi da circa 40 (!) anni e li ho sentiti molte volte dal vivo. Mi pare che ultimamente Ughi sia molto,come dire,invasato...L'ultima volta che l'ho visto dal vivo faceva le piroette sul palco mentre suonava e a metà (non alla fine!) di un pezzo veloce ha urlato un AARGH che ha quasi spaventato il pubblico.Mi è venuto qualche sospetto... Insomma,preferisco Accardo.

@Draziw777 15 лет назад

Accardo is very good, but the best from the best is Michael Rabin, playing Paganini concerto. Marvelous.

@milstein91 14 лет назад

@dfxr808 oh yeah?say me in what points,for sure not in tech,sound,intonation or musicallity.

@cawa15a 16 лет назад

imho Kogan's and Hirshhorn's cadenzas better in tech. quality and sound btw in our time there is a lot of people who can play this concerto with better quality.

@zaokoyechatma 15 лет назад

yeah u have yours and i have mine

@violinoamore 16 лет назад

I went to the Massimo Quarta website. I listened to "Variazioni su un tema di Weigl" from his Paganini CD. It was incredibly out of tune ... (second portion of the first part).

@hvassilev 15 лет назад

Especialy about Paganin, all them are below the genius Vasco Abadjiev. Only Franceskati is near to his class.

@solowinterwolf 12 лет назад

Of course, Kavakos . . . ; but is it really a competition?

@dogpaw814 7 лет назад

Brent Hudson they actually both got first place in the premio Paganini competition , 1956,1988 Lol good game were all scrubs to these legends

@rtega 13 лет назад

Maybe you people should listen to Hirsshorn...

@cjh37878 15 лет назад

That's your opinion. My opinion is the exact opposite. Anyways, the notes missed are probably because of different sheet music.

@blichilde 15 лет назад

Oh,no. Surely not Mintz...

@milstein91 15 лет назад

Watch Kavakos he kills accardo...

@Fisherdec 16 лет назад

nah hes not that great but at least he did better than I expected

@blichilde 15 лет назад

Of course you can. And I can disagree.Tastes, you know.

@violinoamore 16 лет назад

He plays this equilibristic cadenza with such an ease ... I have this CD set. Unfortunately only the first concerto and the third movement from the second one are bearable. The rest is just a musical crap full of ascending and descending violin passages stuffed with some routine orchestra scores behind, without any invention. No wonder that almost no one plays these pieces.

@AlexanderArsov 4 года назад

Paganini's Violin Concerto No. 5 is "musical crap"? Including the second movement? Listen again!

@zaokoyechatma 15 лет назад

that guy mintz is way better than this
