    Maria Theresia became blind at age two. So talented that Mozart met with her when she was fifteen and wrote a piano concerto for her. Her memory capacity puzzled the science.

      And she also has not written this piece :) Not 17th century progression at all. Aside of that it is clearly a variation of Weber - Violin sonata op.10 n°1. So the "editor" of this piece Samuel Dushkin most likely did not "explored" it but wrote. A bit of a marketing hoax)

    This is such a super simple piece, I'm just learning the piano part now. You can learn this piece and learn to play it with a cellist in one afternoon. But to do it justice like these two - that's a whole other matter. So elegant! So And I'm impressed at how softly Victor Asuncion is able to accompany with the lid of the piano fully open!

    This is a nice performance by cello. I've been loving this Siciliano of Paradis as same as Faure or Respighi. By the way I wonder who the cellist is? By any chance, Was he a chief cellist who belonged to the Cleveland Orchestra of George Szell at around 1970? If so, I am thinking there existed a certain female cellist like Hollywood actress beside him. Because I've seen the record jacket of that Orchestra.

    • @winrx
      @winrx 9 лет назад

      The female cellist you speak of is Diane Mather who played in the Cleveland Orchestra from 1963 - 2001.

      Reading this mail, I became so happy ,thinking that she had been playing cello for very long time in Cleveland symphony orchestra.
      I am not able to forget her beautiful, intelligent expression that was watching George Szell's behavior. So nice experience ! from Small Edo ST prefecture

    Note slightly flat at 1:31 which makes me feel a little bit better to know even Mr. Harrell whom I deeply admire is not perfect 100% of the time...I do agree that his speed is more than a little bit up tempo at least for me...the plaintiveness that I was expecting from this is missing from this performance in my view. I will be performing this on Sunday...(!!!)

    • @iggyreilly2463
      @iggyreilly2463 6 лет назад +2

      Harrell is so imperfect that he doesn't do his musical research. This piece is not by Paradis; it is a paraphrase of a piece by Carl Maria von Weber, taken from one of Weber's violin sonatas by Samuel Dushkin in the 20th century who then claimed he 'discovered' a piece by Paradis. It's all a hoax. Harrell should know better.

    Maria Theresia von Paradis did not compose this piece of music whose melody and harmony are clearly not from a person who was born in 1759 and died in 1824. It is well known that it is a fake created some time in the 20th Century by Samuel Douchkine (1891-1976) who claimed to have discovered it and who was inspired by a theme from the violin sonata (opus 10 no. 1) by Carl Maria von Weber. Of course this has nothing to do with the beautiful rendition of Lynn Harrell. Thank you for sharing

  • @musicfordeb6248
    @musicfordeb6248 8 месяцев назад

    This piece is really by the violinist Samuel Dushkin (1891-1976). Von Paradis was a contemporary of Mozart and her music sounds nothing like this.

      It is called rubato...the little differences you hear in time are meant to bring out certain notes. I personally luke the light, fluffy approach Lynn Harrell takes but daaamn does sheku sound good. Listen to Jacqueline Du Pré's version...hers is stellar.
