People still do that man. Worship music performers when they see a secular or neutral musicians play better, they make up shit... Making people scared of something as good as Hotel California for instance.
*For anyone who wants to know about him* Niccolò Paganini was known by the name of “The Devil's Violinist". His amazing violin skills were believed to be a gift from the devil. He was particularly known for performing recitals without sheet music, memorising everything instead, and could play up to 12 notes per second. Also, there's a story that his strings broke during a performance and he played on a sole string. It is also said that Paganini himself occasionally broke strings during his performances on purpose so he could further display his virtuosity. He did this by carefully filing notches into them to weaken them, so that they would break when in use.
@@tormap999 yes highly inappropriate to make noise during a classical performance...not just in our time but even back then... Very rude. But yes mostly for dramatic performance in the movie
@@joe-zj8jsI might be confusing him with liszt but, I am 99% sure stuff like this happened, again I might be confusing him with liszt but I remember reading women like threw stuff on the stage, I probably could find the source but I dont remember it
Je suis violoniste et si ce type passé avant moi à une compétition, aucune chance, je descend de scène, sors de coulisses, prends une chaise et fuit devant tant de talent. 😅
Have actually had something close... Me and my band were in a competition. The band that played before us...... Well lets just say i doubted them to be even close to being a high school band. Honestly they played so amazingly that all of my band members just kinda gave up. We still played. Didnt really do well. We did compliment the other band when leaving though. Great memories.
It’s just what people believed at the time. But let’s be honest be so good that the only explanation for your talent being that you sold your soul to the devil is pretty hardcore
That's why they're called caprice. In Italian a "capriccio" is something you do just for your satisfaction, with no practical benefits, that may even damage you a little. For example if you don't have a lot of money but you still want to order an expensive wine at the restaurant. A capriccio is also when a little kid is complaining, whining and crying with no real reasons.
I thought he wrote it as a form of exercise for violin students to master certain techniques like octaves, double stop trills, and etc.? Isn't that why in the dedication it says "A gli Artisti" or "to artists"?
i@@sumtingwong2162 no i was referring to when people were making rumors about her "selling her soul to the devil" last year. i'm truly sorry to see people who feel the need to intrude their uncultured comments on everything.
@@hannahpark6911 Billie Ellish literally talks about Lucifer in her songs so I know she did, She literally says “Lucifer is lonely” and praises him in one of her song and her music videos and songs sound and look demonic.
imagine hearing the great violinists and composer back when they were alive and not having as much exposure to music as we do nowadays, living somewhere where first time you hear masterful violin is when you're a young adult and hear something like paganini. must be some really good experience
There's a girl from Scandinavia (I can't remember her name) literally composing and performing in symphonies at world class events and orchestras. She has been since around 8, so more than 5 years now. You just aren't looking very hard.
@@nalublackwater9729 Fabio?! who cares! He plays the violin beautifully! Also he doesn't look like Fabio to me, more like a rockstar, of the violin! Ha!Ha!
@@nndimitry No. You are completely wrong. Paganini composed this concert in 1826: it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concerto_per_violino_e_orchestra_n._2_(Paganini) Then Liszt in 1854 rework to adapt it on piano. How dare you? Don't even try to rewrite history of music and what Paganini did.
Yeah, la campanella was made by paganini alone but I personally thing that liszt's arrangement of it is genius and importantly, they have pretty lengthy differences between them, but the original is made by paganini, I cant say which is better but both of them are legendary
Yall but Paganini wasn't as attractive as the actor. It was said he was tall,scrawny, pale, and had a sickly look to him which is why people often thought he had some sort of association with the devil himself.
Ah eu não me canso de ouvir essa música maravilhosa, já vi e revi o filme mas a cada vê que ouço a música sempre percebo mais uma passagem que eu gosto mais é espetacular o desempenho do nosso violinista que Deus te abençoe querido David
Something left my body when I was hearing it, a cold shiver, a breeze entering and leaving at the same time, but yet I was in the zone, my back cold and hot and ripping apart yet being rejuvenated at the same time, it's inexplacable but truly something I know I won't experience again
I understand why people speculate he sold his soul to the Devil. His music was just so advance of his time it's like somebody created a cellphone in the Jurassic period.
I am so proud of my grandson, who, at aged 18 has become first violinist in an orchestra, having come first in all his exams at the conservatorium he has been attending for three years. He had his first concert last night to a packed audience. Just wondering if he could play this piece as well!
Marvelous! Recently, I read a story, " The Phantom violinist. Play like the Devil. " By Nigel Street. I was impressed with the realisation and attention to detail. I was really pulled into the story and felt I was there. I was captivated by the mystery of the violin and its new owner. So now I have become a violin lover.
If you’ve ever been to a David Garret concert, he actually does this where he starts his concert off by walking through the audience playing his first solo.
no... they didn't actually. they may have fainted here and there but only due to the fact if their heart rate raised enough... their bustiers would not allow for it... hence they would faint. If you seriously believe women behaved this way in the 1830s... because this movie said so..., you fit right into today's pathetic society of nitwits.
The Swedish guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen was influenced by Paganini and is called the "Godfather of Baroque Guitar". You can definitely hear the classical influence in his technique! Look him up
Make no mistake the musician looked far from the actor, often described as a lanky sickly figure with elongated fingers and movement unpredictable while performing;The audience even prayed during his performances because of the odd shapes his body made and the frequent illusion that a dark figure was aiding him in his work
Why would jimmy page not play what he himself wrote. I'm sure Paganni improvised sometimes. From what I can gather, he wasn't a big fan of standard conventions.
In some cases, this is for dramatic cinema, but many musicians of the era where drowing in woman, they some of them have dates for every day of the week, ehile others like mozart just dont care about the affection of his fans.
@@xzenitramx666 Oh yeah Franz Liszt was a rock star before that was a term. Women literally threw undergarments at him in concert. He was drowning in the game. 😂😂
I did not realise this was David Garrett playing Paganini. I have one of Garrett's albums, which I thoroughly enjoy, very cool to see that he's acted in a film.
que increíble época, vivieron en la misma Mozart, Beethoven, Paganini, Bach (aunque este murio un poco antes). Ojala se hubieran juntado todos a hacer una obra. Aunque Mozart y Beethoven si se alcanzaron a conocer en persona, y Mozart lo escucho tocar el piano
@LordreDessfou si trataron de hacer una colaboracion juntos,..es mas Mozart publico en su Facebook algo acerca de lo que mencionas....Dijo que varias veces llamo a beethoven y que ninguna vez le contesto la llamada,.Cosa que hizo enojar a Mozart y cuando se reunieron ellos 2 junto con paganini y bach ya sabes en un tipico fin de semana,..Mozart le hace El comentario a beethoven que le estuvo llamando Para detallar ese CD que tanto deseas,..pero ya llevaban varias copas (38 C,40 DD) y discutieron,Mozart le reclamaba a beethoven porque no contestaba sus llamadas si se hacia wey nada mas o estaba sordo...Cosa que hizo enojar a beethoven pero solo discutieron no llegaron a los trompos porque paganini y bach los desapartaron,se dejaron de hablar por un tiempo pero no te aguites en su post de Facebook Mozart Dijo que ya arreglaron sus diferencias y se pidieron disculpas cada uno y que otra vez volvieron a tocar El tema de tu CD y que todo VA por buen Camino y que Estes atento a sus publicaciones que los sigas en twitter Instagram y te suscribas a onlyfans
Here we have a Rockstar from Romanticism times: 1) Surprising entrance. 2) The public is absorbed in the performance. 3) The girls shouting out and fainting by the excitement. 4) Unique style. 5) Gets a full ovation from the crowd.
