I was in this concert, it was on Hamburg 12.09.24. He played it after the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto. Before playing this piece, he said he has not practiced it in a long time and this is the first in quite some time he is performing it again. The people in the audience had a good time, he got standing ovation.
This is ABSURD. As a profesional violinist I can tell you ANYONE can fail anytime... Ray chen is not even my favorite violinist or in my top 50 but is a world class soloist for sure. It doesnt mean he has to play perfect or in tune always. I saw the best in the world fail badly live, Zimerman, Jansen, kavakos, batiashvili... All are human and posting this pointing it like something he must regret is bad taste.
ray chen has literally declined. If you watch his previous concerto, and then watch the new one, you see worse playing. My favourite and least favourite version of the tchaikovsky violin concerto is both by Ray chen. His Seattle performance of the tchaikovsky was amazing (string break one) yet the one he did recently was sooo bad ive seen 15 year olds play it better than he did. Same with sibelius. His 2015 was perfect and his 2021 sibelius was okay but not as good.
@@omniyx7837man idk bout you, but when someone decided to play music so hard that it goes against the natrual inclinations of an instrument (literally using a guitar to play whats on this sheet music is more worth your time) anything close to correct is already a win in my book
He literally played this after encore in Singapore. Who wouldn't be tired form playing an entire concert and then play a complicated piece after it?! In this case context matters...

Yeah perfect example to see his technical decline.. He's grown so much musically and is still technically better than most of us will ever be but he's just not as good as he was. He seems to care more about being an entertainer than being one of the great violinsts these days. But that's just a hot take, I love Rays playing, but you can't not see this.
Kinda reminds me of roman kim lol, in 2013 he was super technical, but these days he focuses on musicality, wonder if his technicality is still insane...

Bro i dont remember that performance of her, but she did 4th finger vibrato on the e string and reached prolly the highest violin note ever, super far up the fretboard, that was just next level
This video is obviously made by a non musician, or a person with bad intentions. The video maliciously compare two performances of a same artist and jump to unrealistic conclusions. I accidently found that the same person is obsessed with Ray Chen and made other videos in the same manner. He or she obviously is way out of music field and pursuing some strange agenda.

@@omniyx7837Of course Chen declined. IN SOME performances. It may come as surprise to you, but every musician in the world declined temporarely or permanently during his carrier. It is normal to comment on that. However it is not normal to make a serious of videos with that single observation about single musician. Even more, it is possible that musician had some other concert where he improved himself. Does the video author listen every Chen's concert around the world?

Dude the first one is in front of a professional orchestra probably being recorded by actual cameramen, and the second one is recorded in a highschool classroom on a shitty phone camera and the second recording is a trillion times better
@@omniyx7837The first one is not recorded professionally. I was in the concert. It was by someone’s phone, which was not allowed, but some people did it regardless. A smartphone is not good recording equipment.
Whoever is posting this is rude, and immature. Anything could happen in a live performance so people need to chill. I feel like whoever posted this needs to get their act together. How unprofessional.
He played it much better when he was older. If you don’t think so, you’re probably a disgruntled musician. People do not come to concerts to hear perfect intonation. They want to be moved.
He is always too much, never knows how to contain. Never have I liked his music style nor appreciation. Anyone can haven perfect technicality. He lacks everyone else
He. doesn't play what is written in the original score: bowings are not accurate and makes it easy, and still plays out of tune... nothing compare to Oistrach or Milstein...but he is what we call a popular and commercial violinist.
He is just not as good. My favourite and least favourite version of the tchaikovsky violin concerto is both by Ray chen. His Seattle performance of the tchaikovsky was amazing (string break one) yet the one he did recently was sooo bad ive seen 15 year olds play it better than he did.
Since Ray cares about being a makeshift kpop star more than a violinist, he should just retire and focus on his yt channel. Right now he doesnt practice and only does social media but still tries to perform as a professional violinist and does shitty playing. You cant be a world class player and a social media star. Theres a reason why every other great violin player doesnt run multiple social media pages.
And? Seriously; don't go to his concerts if you don't want to. Nobody is forcing you. Plus, I saw him live last year with the TSO and personally, he sounded amazing to me. Granted, I play the clarinet in two youth orchestras, so I obviously would not have the best comment regarding a violin concerto, however people still enjoyed the concert. Stop being so critical, and if you're going to continue to do so, then be critical of yourself. He is a better player than you. Improve yourself.

@@omniyx7837 i agree, but you can't just say he sucks. he's most definitely declined but does that make him so bad he "sucks"? like I'm sure this person can't play nearly as good as him. it was just the language

Copying and pasting the same message... I think you have a fixation. @@omniyx7837
@@omniyx7837 in the one that he performed worse was because he played this after encore and he hadn’t studied the piece in a long time
Keeping the same world class soloist level is 1000× times harder than other stuff and only a true violinist would get that
Yeah, I feel like his confidence now overshadow his real technique.
