Played with a lot of passion and grit but a bit too hacky for my taste.

[@crowing3886]

can you be more specific? I didn't see any major flaws in this performance. What exactly do you mean by "too hacky*? like he ruined the piece?

[@DagOnFire07]

Not legato enough?

Charlie Brookes I really dont know in which world you live .this guys is amazing he really speak with his violin . all his phrases are conected he just does his own version .i think you just are used to hear the other musician that just imitate others. with all the respect we need to appreciated other people's ideas in music. I hate when people critic other like they are genius . I bet you don't play have of good what he is doing.

It's an interesting take. I hear this heavier style of arm vibrato typical of Israelis, likes of Zukerman and Hagai which does sound overdone often, like they can't adapt to anything else.
