#JenniferJeon #Czardas Accompanied by TJ Thompson Recorded by J. Elrad Presented by The Taft School Music Department A Violin for His Glory www.gofundme.com/f/a-violin-f...
For people saying theres a ton of rosin on the violin I think she does take proper care of her instrument when you reach that kind of skill at an instrument you know how to take care of it. I think she was just warming up before the performance so theres a bunch of rosin on it. It just shows how hard she works. :D
Most people recognise the flashy fast passages first, but I'm more impressed by the multistops and artificial harmonics that come afterwards. Those are actually harder to pull off right.
actually, i've found the opposite learning the piece. none of the stops are inconvenient, they're all very nice and tidy in simple positions. Artificial harmonics are also not a problem as well. They seem very flashy, but it's mostly just playing every note in tune with your first finger and adding the fourth above it. (Not saying these aren't tricky.) The fast parts on the other hand, are marked sautille. Sautille is a very demanding technique to pull off at this speed, and requires extremely precise bow control. It's not so much the notes are hard, but the bowing technique is very demanding. I really appreciate the fact that you pointed out many passages in the violin are much harder than they seem, and many times, they are, but in this specific piece, not so much.
I literally came scrolling through comments to see if anyone said anything to help me figure out where I've heard Czardas before; at first I thought I'd heard it played by some neoclassical metal guitarist, but it turns out you gave me the correct answer, so thank you!!!
Violin teacher: Here, play this piece for competition in 4 months! Me: Oh sure just let me look it up and see what it sounds like. *Opens RU-vid* Me: ........... Me: ..................................... Me: Sh*t.
im going to be able to play this one day and one day i will come back to this comment and say i played it but i will work hard to be able to play this piece
Everytime I listened to this it reminded me of a song but I just couldn't remember. After a few days I remembered, it sounds like the beginning of a song from Lady Gaga called Alejandro.
This video has a lot of character: from the page-turning pianist to the emotions of the violinist--just fantastic! And, to add to that, the song is really pretty...and makes for a wonderful visual performance. Thank you for this introduction!
Sameee i woke up this morning with the melody stuck in my head. I couldnt figure out the name of this piece but now, at 10:43 pm, i finally figured it out.
Czardas: *exists* Lady Gaga: *hippity hoppity, your song's now my property* TwoSet violin: *must play more expressively 99 hours a day, 10 days a week*
At 1:05 a SACRILEGIOUS power. She plays the melody before hitting the strings, that's I N T E R E S T I N G (However I think Jennifer is a great violinist)
I think that the Audio is just out of sync with the video, it happens quite a lot... and plus with all the rosin on the violin the bow probably isn't oiled 😋😂
***** Yeah I mean they were definitely different, I guess they aren't for everyone. And of course i rarely watch music being played, I just open it up in another tab and do whatever else.
Yo sé cuando una violinista es una virtuosa, no solo cuando puede tocar el Czardas de Monti sino cuando logra imprimirle su personal sentimiento a la melodía como en el caso de Jennifer Jeon
This is sublime, I almost prefer the slower parts... with those slides... they gave me goosebumps! But the whole thing is breathtaking. Thank you for sharing this amazing performance 👏
I knew I couldn't be the only one here from Twoset... it's crazy to think how many more classical masterworks I know about now compared to before I started watching their videos!
Sometimes when I play this composition Czardas de Monti I don't know how to interpret it, you have inspired me a lot to know that I not only play but speak what I play, greetings from Peru
The most amazing love melody... ever. I have listened to your rendition so many times I can't remember and I am afraid I will again and again... and again...
Beautiful playing. thank you Jennifer I have watched your videos for at least five years and you have grown so much as acmusician - so what, now I’m a critic ? 😀
