Paganini: Violin Concerto No.1 

This piece is a "musical triathlon with every possible technical difficulty that Paganini composed to show off his devilish skills, but also it has become a proving ground for the great virtuosos of future generations to see "what they are really made of". ...And in this performance, Sarah Chang has proven herself beyond all measure!...BRAVO!!!!!!!!

I did play with her when she was 13 and Sibelius Concerto was unforgettable and she looked and performed like a angel!!!🎻🌈💋🌹🧜🏼‍♀️❤️🤠👍

Perfect and beautiful! This moment will remain forever in the universe's history. Thank you Sarah!

Paganini is SO DEMANDING and she launched into it with perfect technical aplomb and still made it light and expressive. I had this on while working and had to give it my full attention. Very, very impressive.

I believe that Paganini composed his work to be extra extra difficult but this young lady is brilliant.. She makes it look easy

Wow,, what a beautiful young lady, and a wonderful talent, given by God.

6살레 MBC에서 해 주던 장영주님 다큐를 보고 그 후로 엄마를 보채서 바이올린을 언니와 같이 배웠었어요. 지금은 바이올린을 제대로 켜지도 못 하지만 여전히 바이올린 협주곡과 각종 클래식은 즐겨 듣고 있습니다. 그리고 저는 장영주님 하면 이상하게도 성인이 되어서 연주하신 것도 물론 좋지만 고등학생의 나이에 연주하신 파가니니와 멘델스존이 더 좋더라고요...그리고 이 곡이 울려퍼진 피렌체의 베키오궁은 제 이태리 여행 중 꼭 가봐야 할 버킷리스트였고 실제로 다녀왔습니다! 5살 부터 저기를 꼬오오옥 가봐야지 했는데 어찌나 감격스럽던지.. 제가 비록 비평가나 연주가는 아니지만 잠시나마라도 따뜻하고 온화한 그 어릴 적의 감상을 느낄 수 있다는 것 만으로도 정말 감사합니다. 앞으로도 오래오래 좋은 연주 많이 들려 주세요.

I never seen an Angel playing the violin, so magnificent

Hearing without watching and knowing >>>> this is a VERY GOOD VIOLINIST ! Thanks to GOD for Sarah Chang !!!

OMG! What miracles has creates these marvelous musicians? Hahn, Fedorova and Chang and so many others. I'm 79 and thought that the Golden Age of Classical music had ended with the advent of Rock, etc. but I was so wrong! This is DIVINE!

Sarah's great talent with her violin 🎻 is a passion which comes from the 💓 heart a joy to see and hear . I love music but am unable to play an instrument but when I hear musicians play it makes up for my inability to play myself

einfach ohne Worte man brauch nichts mehr hinzuzufügen,Weltkiasse,

She is truly a genius. That is all I can say. Thank you all for this recording. Jay Haar

Her beaming sound hovering over huge orchestra, expressive vibrato, extreme precision...certainly one of a kind. I never get tired of her playing. So full of life. Always uplifting my spirit. Gift for humanity 😘

You mean somebody in that audience is not standing??? Unbelievable -- she is utterly and totally fantastic.

Magnifique Sarah Chang! Elle est d’une beauté à couper le souffle. Excellente violoniste qui nous fait pleurer de joie, d’émotion de bonheur.

Я от неё в восторге! Посмотрите с каким глубоким чувством она передаёт нас красоту мира звуков! Талант от Бога! Браво!

Mdme Chang is one the greatest violinist in the word in our time

博格尼尼的小提琴曲是以难度高出名，音域跨度大，速度快，情绪变化多，小提琴家们以此挑战自己。这位女小提琴手的表演极其出色🎉，指法和弓发流利 准确，力度到位，理解颇深❤！ 致敬！

Paganini may have been dealing with the devil, but Sarah certainly plays the violin like an angel.

She is a genius in violine classical music. The technical maturities, especially emotional express ion are almost perfect. So naturally played, too.

Almost all men in the orch, male conductor, male composer, but the gal gets to stand center stage and get all the glory. As it should rightly be. She's got the chops. Incredibly well done.

We haven’t seen a living violinist surpass Sarah Chang in talent, and I’m waiting cus I can’t only listen to her recordings forever! 😂

Вне всякого сомнения солистка высшей категории!!!!Очень редкий талант, сопоставимый разве с самим Паганини!!!!!Владение инструментом безупречное!!!

Sarah Chang’s rendition of this master piece by Paganini is by far the best violin concerto there is.Her dexterity and virtuosity is a sound to behold.I have lost count of the number of times I have repeatedly listen to it without a tinge of feeling bored.

악상을 꿈에서도 이어가는 능력이 아니라면 이런 연주를 할 수 없을 것이다 정말 아무나 노력한다고 할 수 없는 타고 난 자질이다

참... 이런연주를 집에 편하게 누워서 들을수 있다니.... 세상 감사할따름ㅎ

BRAVO! Zubrin Mehta & Berlinet Philharmoniker ALSO Love Paganini🤩 Sarah Chang...BRAVO ALL!!!

너무 아름다워요…. 선율에 영혼이 담긴 것 같아요 마음이 평온해지고 감동이 일어납니다

Sarah Chang mastering one of the hardest pieces ever! Just incredible! Bravíssimo!!

IMO Sarah and Perlman are the greatest violinists of our time. However let's not forget Paganini, composer and incredible violinist.

Ms Chang proves the scripture, "All gifts come down from God, the Father of lignts in Whom there is no shadow of turning at all. " Music is such a gift to us, both to those who create it and those who hear it. Yes, she has worked and studied hard but thanks be to God Who gave her the ability, placed her in a home where her gifts would be discovered, nurtured a n d shared with the world. Someone said 'a person's gifts make room for them' and Ms. Chang exemplifies that perfectly with grace and beauty. Brava!

I'am dropping tears for this unbelievable performance. Thank you Sarah!

이런 멋진 연주를 듣는것은 행운이다. Luckiest moment to listen her performance with excellent orchestra.

Ok People, You all just heard and saw one of the BEST Performances EVER!!!!!! What Sarah did here to one of the hardest pieces to play is beyond comprehension!!!! The first time I heard her was in the early 1990's.... I asked my parents after taping and playing it for them how old they thought this player was? My Dad said 29. I said nope, 11. Incredible!!!! Thumbs down clickers can only be those who were so awed and shocked by her playing that they spazzed out and hit the wrong thumb.

Paganini by this Korean talented child at her 15 years old. Outstanding! The conductor Zubin Mehta conducting the Philharmonic of Berlin in Florence.

Paganini, Mozart, Mendelson, Albinoni... lo mejor para calmar las crisis nerviosas de un enfermo con demencia de cuerpos de Lewi. Bendita clásica y benditos músicos que hacen posible el milagro. Gracias, gracias

It’s like heaven’s music. It’s the greatest performance.

Сара и скрипка - это одно целое! Это и есть мир любви к человеку! Спасибо! Браво!

i am not a musician but i got inspired by other youtubers playing difficult pieces and suddenly stumbled on Sarah Chang's video. Honestly, her facial expression makes it look so easy listening to than playing the violin. Memorizing a 20 min piece of music is not easy i bet.

Mesmerizing, one of my father's favorite pieces...Ah, memories!

Sarah Chang é la mia violinista preferita ..ha del soprannaturale..molto brava..🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶💕

I am very new to classical, but listening to this, I am blown away. WOW WOW WOW

Saludos Paganini es el maestro de Violín el mejor en su género. Me encanta este concierto No1en violín. Mi admiración Eterna. A Semejante maravilla de Compositor músico. Du talento. Es admirable. Y no comparto tanta basura que hablan de este genio. Un Saludito desde Colombia y gracias por esta Maravillosa Música. Y a la concertista muchos Aplausos. Maravillosa intérprete. 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏🇨🇴

Обратите внимание на её глаза и чистоту звуков! Всё живёт одним - счастьем и любовью к музыке! Ах, как здорово, красиво и ярко!

Paganini is uniquely beautiful. The violenist Sarah plays like an angel. 🎼🎶🎻

Sarah Shang A wonderful performance ! She plays with Heart and Soul . Bravo !

I find her very powerful and straightforward in playing the violin.

Incredible. I can hardly nelieve my eyes and ears what the younger ones are doing is just amazing ....

A real Superstar, best violinist in my opinion. Paganini is tough but magical.

Incredible skill and compassion in her virtuosity, most definitely a precious gift from Jesus.

Lightening speed and articulation of clarity I’ve never heard...genius beyond description 🦋💖

다른 여성 바이올리니스트 같은곡 연주를 들어봤는데 정말 급이 다르다 달라 그 여성은 보는 내가 숨이 차고 여유가 없어 보였고 실수할까봐 조마조마 했는데 사라장은 당당하면서도 음과 음사이가 꽉찬 여유가 느껴진다 하 진짜 대단한 사람.....

파가니니의 천재성과 사라장의 열정이 합쳐서 만든 최고의 연주!

I had no idea a violin can sound like that, simply astounding!

This concert is beautiful , and she is a miracle.

can NEVER get tired of paganini !!!...can also NEVER understand why so many poeple try to put him down !...chang plays this extremely well !!

,Beautiful, that would have to be one of the best performances ever!! She is just magic!!

Wunderbar! Hervorragende Solistin,die man nur bewundern kann

Played so skillfully and beautifully by a great violinist

Se alguém duvida da perfeição, é só ouvir esse concerto. Simplesmente impecável.

Her violin has a very beautiful tone.

Many viewings later, and I still can't believe what I'm watching. What a legend. I still can't believe such beauty and playing speed are humanely possible!

I have heard this piece of Paganini played many times, but never better! Thank you for sharing this magnificent video!

O concerto mais perfeito que já escutei.

Her performance is incomparable ！ It is not natural for us to say that we are alive every day . Life and death may be reversed tomorrow . We are in such an unstable situation . Her performance will alleviate such anxiety and grief .

Al escuchar una interpretación creativa como la de la presente virtuosa violinista nos eleva los más nobles ideales. Viva la música.

파가니니도 울고 갈 명연주.👍^^ 사라장 장영주님.👍^^

N-am mai ascultat Paganini de mult, e superb.

My preferred classical music interpretation. It's a really a divine moment. Not necessarily the best classical piece ever, but the encounter of a solist on top of her ability and a piece which fits mostly to her. I never heard a better perfect match.

She is the best!

She really can sing by her violin. Amazing!

연주도좋고 표정도좋고 몸짓도좋고 간간히 미소를 띄울때가 있는데

Que los dioses guarden a esta talentosa jovencita y gracias por su magnífica interpretación y por alegrarnos el espíritu.

Paganini, concerto numărul unu! "SUPER FULL MUZIC și IMAGINE", interpreta, Dirijorul și Orchestra "SUPER MEN", BRAVA! Thenk You, pentru Imagine și MUZICĂ!

I heard she once lived above a car mechanics shop in SF. "They were protective of me." said Sarah. Picture a bunch of car mechanics working in silence, waiting for her to practice.

what a perfection..every sound is right completely controlled, beautiful...

Nicolas Paganini resucita cuando alguien con talento interpreta sus obras magistrales.

It was like an angelic butterfly was released from the heavens to play this! Her performance was like the unfurling of a flower. The gorgeous tones singing forth from her magnificent 1717 Guarneri de Gesu violin equated to "a lark at heaven's gate ascending". Her magnetic eloquence and elegance and obvious charming nature make her a veritable joy to watch! I bought a CD of her performing a concerto by Henri Vieuxtemps years ago. She's one of the best! Now 37 years young! A gift from God to The Republic of South Korea, and to the WORLD! (I would love to hear a transcription of this masterpiece for piano and orchesratra. Wish that Franz Liszt or Rachmaninoff had done it!) LONG LIVE the remarkable Sarah Chang!!!😀😀😀😀

Her playing is a gift from God. One of the best violin players in the world. Thanks for uploading.

Paganini should be MAD salty that he wasn't able to hear Sarah Chang play his work. He would've hugged and thanked her as she executed the concerto HIS way.

Maravillosa y te alegra el alma gracias 😊 y esa niña es una virtuosa del violín 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏y toda la orquesta es de primera 👏👏👏👏👏👏💐💐💐💐💐💐💐un saludo desde Cd. de México 🇲🇽

Excelente el contar con la música más bella del mundo por internet... A todos los que intervinieron para que ésta maravilla este al alcance, ... Muchas gracias.

Bravo!!! Sarah Chang is the best violinist in the world for me !!!

와우 정말 멋진연주 잘 보고 들었습니다~~~ 대단합니다.

She played Mendelssohn with the NYP under Kurt Masur in 1995 at the age of 15. She played Tchaikovsky with MSO under Charles Dutoit in 1992 at the age of 12. I guess this Paganini was played in 1994. These were her most innocent years and for me her best years. Her playing touches my heart.

There is something extraordinary in her incomparable performance . The comfort of this performance is irreplaceable

I have tears in my eyes

예전에 우연히 보고 며칠 내내봤던 영상인데 오랜만에 보니 또 좋네요..정말 최고예요

20세기 최고의 기념비적인 연주.

Amazing! Fully energetic and heartful sound with very rythmical techniques.

Bravo, Sarah. I am so happy to have met you in Hong Kong about 8 to 10 yrs ago. I went to the back stage to have you autographed your CD for me. you asked what is my name and I said Michael. You then said oh, that is easy because my xxx has the same name. I still go to u tube every night to listen to your play. Many thanks again

Magnifico...junto com a apresentação de Izhac Pearlman...foi o melhor Nicolò Paganini que já ouvi. Esplêndido...foi de chorar de emoção. BRASIL. RJ

Escalofriante como toca y transmite la belleza y complejidad de esta musica.

Extraordinaria ejecución Paganini, Chang, Metha es un destello de paraíso; me lleva a dimensiones celestiales, un asomo de perfección, belleza, armonía

베를린 필하모닉, 그리고 주빈 메타와의 협연이군요. 아직 20대를 넘기 전의 연주였을텐데 정말 잘하네요.

An absolute miracle , out of this world !

Absolutely magical😁

Looking back at this video gave me a sense of great beauty and hope in the midst of the drudgery in this world.

Esta violinista es lo máximo,que Dios la guarde siempre,felicitaciones
