    I've been reading "Light from Uncommon Stars" by Ryka Aoki and this piece is brought up quite a bit in it, so I had to find it and listen.

    One of the hardest works for the violin.

    Thanks for this. I love Bartok and regard him as a genius, but I must say I find this piece rather difficult.

    Thx so much for synchronizing this score with the rendition by Yehudi Menuhin, GR8 work you have done! 5* :)
    ...and it's so helpful for studying this masterpiece! I still admire the effort by Yehudi who did interprete the incredibly complex score for the first time.

    In one of Menuhin's recorded performances, he changes the score in the first movement (this is not the famous change he made which so irritated Kolisch). I asked about it, and he remarked, "You have a good ear." I still don't know of anyone else who has noticed it. He said he did it for thematic reasons.

    Thanks so much! I've never gotten to see the score for this one despite it being one of my favourite works for solo violin.

      His rendition of the fourth movement was by far one of my favorites, but I can’t find the video; if anyone can find it, please let me know

    I thought playing 3 notes together made a choice, but Bartok proved me wrong.

    A near 30-minute sonata? I can't believe Violinmasterclass put this on the same level with Ysaye... this looks way harder.

      The best version is by Barnabas Kelemen hands down. He follows all the performance and tempo directions (no awkward pausing to take breathers) and even plays the microtones as they were originally written
