    We have often heard that it takes a lifetime to be able to play with the right insight, maturity, or whatever you call it. How about this? A group of young people play as they had lived a long life? No, we have to change our thinking about this. And accept that young people have the same insight in what it is to be a human beeing, the same deep feeling for life. And sometimes they play better than the older. Thank you, Janine, you have done a great job!

      These folks are incredibly talented, skilled, well-educated and experienced. This gives them the tools to be expressive where some others might be inhibited by lack of talent, education, technical skill and experience. In past years, excellent teaching and opportunities were more limited, reached fewer people, hence fewer musicians could reach this level. So what might have been true in the past is not true now.

    When watching Janine play with major orchestras you get the sense she is really particularly suited for this kind of music, which is so collaborative. She is eternally connecting with members of the orchestra as she tackles a major concerto. Here she is doing it with this group of fine young musicians. She is not only an outstanding violinist but also an inspiration to younger performers. This is gorgeous music and a wonderful performance.

    Felix is at it again! I really began to admire him at age nine to 10 in Spain where we were stationed at a SAC base. My father was a colonel in the US Air Force. I began piano lessons there at age eight with Vladimir Vuletin-a semi-retired concert pianist. I remember the maid we had there was extremely put-out with me because she complained that I had been listening to the same record all day long. OVER and OVER!! - she almost screamed in Spanish to my mother innocently returning home from shopping in Madrid. It was the Octet in E-flat Op. 20. I still can listen to it over and over...yes ! It's delicious. I especially love the scherzo!

    This is thrilling. I've loved this piece since hearing it as a child (repeatedly) on 78rpm records in the 1940's, with Heifetz, Primrose, Piatigorsky, et al. It always moves me. Curtisgrindahl's comment nails an aspect of Janine Jansen's playing I've long loved, myself, and have commented on several times: her love of collaboration, including with orchestra members when she's playing a concerto. It's almost as if communication is in her DNA. She grew up playing chamber music with her family, and that spirit of intimate cooperation has informed everything she does. What a privilege and learning experience it must have been for the people who joined her in this performance! She's a musician who feels deeply and understands the value of subtility and nuance as well as passion. Maybe best of all, it is so clear that she loves the music she plays. I could name very few musicians since Dinu Lipatti who convey so much love. How can a sentient being not be moved by such greatness, from the teenaged Mendelssohn, the mature Jansen, and her colleagues, here?

I don't follow any of the 3 main religions but when I consider the miracle of classical (especially when you know how hard it is to get a decent sound out of these instruments without years of training) I almost believe in the main gods of humanity. We are spioled by having such music on demand at our fingertips. Seeing classical music live is an experience like no other.

      @@Musicienne-DAB1995 She sure does. It's so amazing that, as a conductor, she has to listen to every note of every instrument, all the while playing as well as she does. My mother played violin in various orchestras around the world for most of her adult life. Therefore I've been to countless concerts. Any player in an orchestra generally can't listen to the other players since they've got to concentrate on their own playing. In fact, my mother always said she couldn't hear anything else but other violins and loud instruments like trumpets and timpani when she's not playing. It's often hard enough to hear your own playing with other violins around you.
      If you watch metal bands in studio they generally wear headphones. same for others that record music. This is done so they can't hear other instruments.
      So the fact that she's conducting a small group is even more amazing.

    Even if I know this was written by a 16 year old genious, I myself will never get to old for listening to this. I consider it to be one of the best chamber music pieces ever written. Luckily I came across it in older days, otherwise I perhaps would be someone that thinks this was good in your youth, but then has grown away from it and now has other favourites. Not so for me. I still think that the genius of young people is the best we have, and this one has a special place in my heart.

      Not so hard, at all. These are the best of young musicians, and they already play better than almost everyone. So Janines subject is to do this to come together, as an unit. As you can hear, she succeeds.

      Excuse me, but why is it that this "Panda Digital Love" is on top: "Janine working hard to inspire the young"? It is not so that I always want to be at the top, I just wonder how these brain-diminshed words can be the best of all, better than ours, trying to explain our love for this octet by Mendelsohn? Give me a proper answer. (The only reason I can think of is that it is one of Janines children?)

Of course, Mendelssohn's Octet is one of the most beautiful pieces of chamber music ever written, and this from a16 y.o.! It brings joy to my heart every time I watch it.

    16 is an age when all is open. You can go to a place, with or without friends, you can go from this place, you can stay at home or leave home momentarily, you can join friends to not beeing in your mothers sight, you can come home to be in the eyes of your mother. Or you can write an octet for eight strings. Easy. If you are 16.

    After a lot of listening to this it seems I have heard it before. And yes, among my CD:s I find it, never played in 20 years, Octet E-flat. This is what I like about RUclips. It brings music to life. And also Janine Jensen brings music to life. With her young ensemble in this Mendelsson she proves that one has not to be old to play great music.
