Gitlis' interpretations might be dirty off the rocker, like l'enfant terible he was. But they come back to haunt me every single time. I can not escape his music. He takes the piece from the composer and reinvents it in terrible but so sincere and deeply emotional way that draws tears. I am forever chained to his music. Forever. There is no escape. There is no escape.
I haven’t seen this one anywhere else - thanks for posting it, great to be able to see it, especially the bow technique- he uses the whole thing. His playing is absolutely unique. So much soul even in this little piece. My favorite violinist of all time.
I feel pity for all the morons pointing mistakes and saying that a 7 years old plays better. You should just get a midi version and enjoy your tik tok life❤🤖
Gitlis and Heifetz are the only violinists I can identify blindfolded without fail. All the others sound more or less the same - cookie cutter fiddlers they are. It's very difficult to develop a unique sound and a unique style.
@@untonsured I am deaf in my right ear and half deaf in my left - I can only hear up to F3, the upper registers are non-existent for me. Maybe that's why all violin players sound the same to me. How about you? Can you identify Mutter, or Shtern, or Gluzman, or Shaham, or Hadelich, or Hahn, or Bell, or Zukerman, or Silverstein, or Midori, or Kelemen, or Stern, or Milstein, or Perlman, or Zimmerman, or Beilman, or Cerovsek, or Ehnes, or Francescatti, or twenty other world-class violinists as soon as you hear them playing?
@@violinhunter2 I agree that probably a good few players can sound similar but I think the good ones tend to have an individual sound like Perlmann, Elmann, Stern, Hadelich, Rosand, Oistrakh, Kogan, and Milstein to name a few. I often listen to the classic music radio station here when driving and I can usually pick them out if they're played.
@@violinhunter2 having a deficit in hearing whether it's mechanical or neurological is different to becoming familiar with the idiosyncrasies of an individual's sound not to mention their individual interpretation of a piece but obviously if sense of hearing is impaired then there is possibly a limit to what might be discernable. If that is the case that is unfortunate but my original comment was more to do with becoming accustomed to an individual voice rather than an inability to hear.
Always metallic sound, strange repeats at the end of bow in a pair of occasions. At 3.25 approx a whistled note on G. Anyway very individual. I prefer much more GULLI-Cavallo Cantabile.
It seems that there might be a tendency to overvalue history but based on the talent showcased now with not only Himari, but Ria Kang and Teo Gerter along with a dozen like Chloe and Christian, I'd be shocked if any other period in history enjoyed this level of talent.
This comment and subsequent remarks are really sad. Gitlis is playing this with intended style and tempo rubato which makes it a true Italian song: cantabile. A seven year old, no matter how gifted, has no conception of culture.
i've never seen this performance of his before. i love how he was always a little bit different. thanks for sharing.

Unmistakable style of Gitlis.

Magnifico
Gorgeous playing. Out of this world. The only Violinist who could match tthis is David Nadien with his magnificent vibrato.🥀
Very beautiful playing - songful & sincere. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Maravilloso Violinista ; su interpretación es por siempre Magistral y su sonido y fraseo con una belleza deslumbrante .
thanks so much for posting this!
Wow. He makes the violin sound like an electric guitar 🎸🥹❤
Gitlis was a genie! This Cantabile is brilliant!
Un seul mot : génial!!
Right hand vibrato - very interesting to hear and see! RIP
I've also seen Kavakos do something similar to that
Это он снимает "зажимы". Шутка😅
I didn't notice it. What exactly is it and where can I spot it?
straordinario
Is that bow vibrato?
Was für ein wunderbar voller Ton !
Скверное звучание...аж в глазах дваица....в обох...вах..

je préfère la version de Léonid Kogan
Tant pis pour toi
Anyone know which of his violins he is playing?

Then you haven't a very well developed ear.

ちょと耳に辛い音域があるね😅
The opening couple of notes are not quite right.
That's what I was thinking.

Largo de aquí!
Get a midi version and be happy 🤖
Interesting, but I prefer Himari Yoshimura playing this piece at the age of 7 !.
I prefer it at age 6
You forgot your ears at home bro

I agree it’s so much more in tune. Also this guy needs to practice with a metronome!!

Passionate amateur...
I hope you mean amateur in the very meaning of the word
