Midori famously performed this work with Bernstein on the podium. In the last section, she broke the E string of her violin and was quickly handed the concert master's violin in order to continue. There was no interruption of the music. She resumed playing - and broke the same string on the replacement violin. Another violin was handed to her. The performance continued. This was at Tanglewood. She was fourteen years old.
I was not familiar with Bernstein's writing beyond the West Side Story, and that didn't impress me much. After I heard this, he gained a lot of respect as composer in my eyes. The third movement is a tour de force and can stand with any piece of modern music of the 20th c.
My friend. Have a listen to Bernstein's Symphony #1 and #2 . And the Divertimento, and Fassimile, Candide, & Slava. I think you will enjoy all of them.
Wunderbare Musik, wunderbare Musiker! Herzlichen Dank dafür! Nur finde ich das Orchester ein wenig zu laut im Verhältnis zur Solovioline, aber das ist reine Tontechnik.
Flashback: This was the piece Midori also played when she was just 14 years old together with Bernstein where she snaps an E string twice & exchanges the concert master's instrument. she manages to finish the piece with an applause...

Yes, very famous! We are so happy she played the piece with the WDR Symphony Orchestra after such a long time.
بہت ہی عمدہ ۔۔
اس خاتون نے تو کمال کر دیا ۔

I have a recording of this piece. Bernstein conducting this work itself.
Lol was the pause at 31:10 a reference to her breaking a string back when she was 14?
Pleasant tention !
Also listen to Hilary Hahn's performance of the third movement on YT with Midori in the audience.
ブラボー👏👏👏

Auswendig spielen, oh gut
Yeah, but is it danceable?
