Shunske is currently recording the complete Beethoven Sonatas and needs our help!! Please donate to this fundraiser! www.voordekunst.nl/projecten/16206-recording-the-beethoven-violin-sonatas
The one that comes to my mind is Joseph Hassid. He belongs definitely to the greatest talents ever on the violin. The intensity and colours of sound. The phrasing and the clarity. His musicality that gives importance to every single note and at the same time manifests the whole picture. This violinist has it.
Whoever that is, (I’m not even going to try, since there are so many violinists out there unknown to the world) he made me goosebumps! such an artist. Inspiring
Sounds old school - unbelievable violin playing - so expressive and stylish in the lyrical/vocal type melodies and so brilliant and energetic in the virtuosic passages.I have no idea who this is but imo they are up there with the greats.
THE ANSWER: Shunske Sato! For those that know what he does today, I don't have to say more! For those that don't, just listen to this... ruclips.net/video/k6lmRD4FgKQ/видео.html THE WINNER: 松井正太郎 (Matsui Shotaro) - please get in touch with me or send me your email address! He was the only one to get it, though a coupe people also wrote Sato later. These are two pieces from Sato's album Preludes, recorded in 2005 in Japan, which was the last time I see any evidence he has touched a 'romantic era' violin. He never promotes the recordings from this time, which is strange. It's hard to imagine attaining such mastery of two completely different idioms..and essentially keeping it a secret! I am very grateful to have artists like him around today. Thanks for all of your imaginative guesses. As someone else has commented, at the very least we have assembled a list of the greatest violin talents that others can research and enjoy.1
I watched him grow up in Philadelphia while studying with the amazing Yayoi Numazawa, my colleague in the Philadelphia Orchestra. He is something extraordinary and unique, no matter what idiom he chooses.
Incredible playing. Besides the obviously very high level of virtuosity, many moments stood out to me. Particular from 3:16 to 3:43, he is able continuously maintain the tension and intensity of the music in a rich yet elastic way. Many other small but graceful gestures such as the slides at 0:42 and 5:35, 5:53 or frequent use of harmonics give a sense of charm. I wonder why he no longer plays in a romantic style. I wholeheartedly agree that this is violin playing at the very highest level.
@@DanielKurganov I wouldn't have ever guessed that. His Baroque is so much more interpretative than this romantic stuff. May be the only violinist who does that. I agree he is a unique talent. Love his Chaconne interpretation to death.
I've never heard of him. He sounds like an old fashioned 🎻 violinist! I love his sound. I will have to research more about him. Thanks for bringing him my attention!
Such beautiful playing..WOW. I hear if possible rather a Franco-Belgian Heifetz one of Ysaye's friends? The shifts are remnscient of Nadien, who was greatly influenced by Heifetz and Kreisler as was my great Dad's idol .. Fritz! Thank you for the wonderful treat and great surprise. Eric Shumsky, who usually knows who is playing ..as a boy I sat on the couch and listened to Dad play everything under the sun and moon so gorgeously..and then i asked him if he would imitate among others..Fritz, Elman, Zimmy.Heifetz.. an amazing lesson for me as a young musician....and if I were lucky he might play some Jazz fiddle and amazing Yiddish style fiddle ..the highlights of my musical life until this day!
It is incredible close to Heifetz and I must ask is if he hadn't re-recorded this piece later in life. Phenomenal playing. There just isn't anyone else that comes close to this transcendental artistry.
0:43 that slide.... it was like a signature of Heifetz.. ;) My guess would be someone who has a strong background in Bel Canto style playing. Shmuel Ashkenasi is the first that comes to my mind, but given the modern sounding quality of the recording I highly doubt it's him. Very impressive and convincing playing nonetheless!
Ok let me try again. The reason why we would be surprised could be because we don't usually associate this violinist with this style of violin playing, perhaps they usually play other genres. Is this form of thinking correct?
That was lovely. Some truly inspiring playing there. They're both new pieces to me, so of course I went off on the sheet-music hunting rabbit hole and have found Heifetz' performance and others. This one is much more recent than his - no background hiss/static from an LP - so you've either got an exceptionally high quality recording or this performer is much younger/more recent than him.
The Tchaikovsky aria so closely resembles the melody of Liszt's Vallée D'Obermann! What a fascinating musical coincidence! Or did Liszt base his piece, already a staple within pianistic literature, off this aria? Either way, very interesting.
It's quite intriguing that, despite the presence of nearly 1000 viewers, no one has been able to correctly guess the identity of the performer for the past 2 hours. I'm really curious to find out who it is!
What a difficult question, because sounds very new and fresh, but at the same time remember me violinist from the golden period,they also play new and freshly,a mean,old school and the new school in the same person, I'm desperate to know who's playing
This recording sounds very similar to David Nadian soo that is my guest. Certainly overshadowed by some of the titans of his generation, but undoubtedly one of the purest sounds
But the recording is pretty clean soo idk haha. That vibrato and the crisp scale and arpeggio runs are quite amazing. Really curious as to who it is. Could be Perlman but idk
Sato…. Best violonist ever recorded ! (In my humble opinion) and one of the best director of baroque music ! His interpretation of Bach’s partita are …. breathtaking ! Can’t wait to hear his interpretation of Beethoven …
@@DanielKurganov I still mourn his departure of the Netherlands Bach Society, though ; as a addict of Baroque music, each of his works made my life more beautiful. I listen to his latest interpretation of the 1052R concerto almost daily.
AMAZING PLAYING! Style is of a play at his/her peak around 1940-60. Very "modern" interpretation....not like Zimbalist or Huberman type. Recording sounds very closely mic'd! Simple equipment. I would even say some of the strings are gut. But the Heifetzian accuracy, urgency, cleanliness, bravado.....I am thinking Ivry Gitlis in an early recording, when he was less "sloppy". (Or perhaps your fave...Phillipe Hirschorn...who is amazing technically, but I find less musical...hence did not suggest him.)
Be a bit too vain mind...despite that he is good...I thought that as well. Seriously though if it is...curve your vanity. If not. Then it's wonderfully energizing...thank you.
It’s Paganini, isn’t it? He’s not dead, he just went for a holiday with Elvis to record a few tunes and have a few beers…. 😂 Looking forward to Saturday 🎉
Take your best guess! I will pin the answer if someone gets it. First person to get it right will get my Practice Hacks booklet, free download of my two albums, and a free invitation to my monthly live Q&A/Studio class on Patreon, as well as a long and emotional clap from me. It's NOT Huberman (I used Huberman's photo for the thumbnail)
I'm 35 and just started playing the violin. I have next to no experience and have been asking around for compositions on RUclips to keep me inspired. Please advise! Many many thanks 🙏
She isn't sufficiently left field to be the answer, but a great violinist I haven't seen mentioned is Zoria Shikhmursaeva. (E.g. check out her magnificent "Pastorale" from Bizet.)
I think it's maybe someone who's not primarily known for violin playing, but for conducting or composition or even as a violist.. but I can't think of anyone specific at the moment..
Hm, you did not rule out all that were mentioned. It could very well be Shunske Sato, going from his Korngold concerto. I can’t find recordings for these two pieces, though, or even a hint that they exist. How far along is your AI that lets you generate any piece in the style of any player?
It is a very difficult question but anyway a enormes joy to listen to. A incerdibel, rich, colorfull and intense violinplaying and also a wonderfull pianoplaying. Thank you for this posting and for making all of us, thinking about how violinplaying should be at its best. I am absolute unsure, but could it be Toscha Seidel
@danielkurganov - Alright...this is no longer funny. Daniel, you are causing thousands of people and hundreds of commenters severe anxiety!!!! We need to know who!!! Save us from our misery!!! 😫😎
The warmth of the sound hints at an Israeli violinist..... very accurate intonation and very fast fingers, and definitely not afraid to play in an old-fashioned style and with a connection to Berlin.... It's not Hadelich and not Duenas and not Rashidova but it's..... I'll let someone else guess.... 🙂
Ich kenne eine große Zahl von Interpreten und Geigen-Solisten, sowie Klangfarbe von den großen der alten Garde, aber dieser hervorragende Violinist konnte ich nicht identifizieren.
I think the name of almost every violinist known to mankind has been mentioned here. Just to cover all bases, I have written to heads of all governments requesting the names of all children and grown ups who play the violin in their countries so I can attach the list here. I hope when the real name is announced it is not a damp squib.
@@DanielKurganovNow that is intriguing. Right now I definitely want to put all this inspiration into practical use. Perhaps it will come to me when I stop searching.
I don't think it's Croitoru, Lamsma, Shoji, Barati, Kelemen, Midori, Khachatryan, Frang, Benedetti, Kang, or Braunstein. The accuracy is uncanny but in the studio, all things are possible. The style is insightful and free - she executes arpeggios with ease. Her sound is a distinguishing feature of her technique which leads me to believe the mystery violinist is not Rashidova nor Hadelich. Duenas, Frang, Kang, and Braunstein have a similar sound but the warmth is not so apparent. I won't say who it is but I think she was born in China. Her recordings of Sarasate pieces are pretty good. I believe those are sufficient clues. (If it's not who I think it is, I will have to laugh at myself.)
I like it extremely much, reminds me on young ivry Gitlis . Is he or she very famous?The recording seems for me made between 1940 to 1965.Right?Can't sleep until I know who is playing:)
I know you said not Russian school, but…. Ilya Kaler? He is the only living violinist I am aware of whose playing is very reminiscent of the masters of the past, just like whomever is playing this. His list of teachers includes Abram Shtern.

Well that is a surprise indeed! I know his baroque playing, but never expected this to be from him!
I thought it was Tianwa Yang for sure. Now I can laugh at myself. However, I had never heard of Shunske Sato.
Amazing answer! Shall we do this again?
I watched him grow up in Philadelphia while studying with the amazing Yayoi Numazawa, my colleague in the Philadelphia Orchestra. He is something extraordinary and unique, no matter what idiom he chooses.
What a surprise! I wish to hear his Brahms violin concerto now 😢

Shunske sato is playing the “Booth” Stradivarius, beautiful sound!
It is incredible close to Heifetz and I must ask is if he hadn't re-recorded this piece later in life. Phenomenal playing. There just isn't anyone else that comes close to this transcendental artistry.
I 100% agree it sounds like Heifetz.. but the vibrato and forte notes are just a bit off… But it still could be Heifetz! 🐐🐐🐐
Heifetz plays much faster!
@@chrislegit3198 Heifetz plays it much faster
This person's tone is incredible. Oh my goodness!!
That’s because he vibrates each note, even the fast ones thanks to finger vibrato, in my opinion.
Tough one…. David Nadien, my best guess. If only because he actually was one of the greatest talents of last 100 years.
I agree with your guess
David Nadien was my third guess, behind Oscar Shumsky and Benno Rabinoff.
0:43 that slide.... it was like a signature of Heifetz.. ;)
My guess would be someone who has a strong background in Bel Canto style playing. Shmuel Ashkenasi is the first that comes to my mind, but given the modern sounding quality of the recording I highly doubt it's him. Very impressive and convincing playing nonetheless!
Ok let me try again. The reason why we would be surprised could be because we don't usually associate this violinist with this style of violin playing, perhaps they usually play other genres. Is this form of thinking correct?

Correct!!!! But someone got it earlier :) How did you come across this recording? Or you were familiar with Sato back then?

You are right to think Nadien…and it happens to be his birthday, funny enough! But it’s not him playing 😅
Thank you so much for this wonderful recording! Only presuming: he sounds to me like Nathan Milstein
I thought of Milstein also, but there were moments of sweetness and some slides that are not characteristic of him.

A marvelous sound
I reckon it a man dear to your heart - Rudolf Koelman.
Very good guess! But no :)
Even though the puzzle has been solved, it came up that the violinist might be a violist. Shunske Sato does indeed play and has recorded on the viola.
I WILL BE POSTING THE ANSWER ON SATURDAY (here in the comments)
Oh thank god, this has been taking too long!

Looking forward to Saturday 🎉
@@MurphyMusicAcademy some people just want to see the world burn...
What if it's Joshua Bell?
Maybe we didn't know the answer but I personally learned a lot new names in the violin world!
This will be really out there. But is it Jaap van Zweden? (Former serious violinist and current musical director of the NYP)

Józef Hasyd for sure❤ thanks for recording

It's not Hadelich and not Duenas and not Rashidova but it's..... I'll let someone else guess.... 🙂
Ivry Gitlis?
Haha, per favore.. !
Super romantic, perfect intonation, thick tone w/vibrato and impactable phrasing... Aaron Rosand?
Good guess! But no:)
Aaron Rosand is one of my heroes, but it’s definitely not him.
Jack Benny? 😁
Wouldn't that be a nice reveal!!!
He doesn't quite fit all the clues you've dropped, but I haven't seen mention of Shlomo Mintz yet so there!
What if it's artificial intelligence 😭
Augustin Dumay?
Gil Shaham?
Werner von Schnitzler?
Daniel Rowland?
Dylana Jenson?
Jan Stigmer?
Philippe Hirschhorn?
It would be you if you practiced enough and not hang on RUclips as much.
It’s Ruben Kosemyan!! 🎻🔥
great guess :) but no
And a great way to twist everyone's mind! This was fun!
Damn that is a rich tone! Could it be Heifetz? Maybe it is too obvious…
This person and recordings is so good. Only if we had more details.
It's saturday already!
Ich kenne eine große Zahl von Interpreten und Geigen-Solisten, sowie Klangfarbe von den großen der alten Garde, aber dieser hervorragende Violinist konnte ich nicht identifizieren.
Thank you for sharing, what magie!
Would you happen to know if he recorded Busoni's Chaconne?
I would love to hear that!
I guess the violinist is Albert Markov! Greetings and all the best! Pablo
Sounds similar to Heifetz but a little slower than how he would play… next closest sounding would be David Nadien, but when in doubt guess Szeryng
Maybe, just maybe, Augustin Dumay? His sound seems not as attacking as this one, but just throw in a guess 🤷or maybe Christian Ferras?
That's a great guess, didn't think of him and now that you mention it, the playing does remind me a lot of Dumay.
Klara Berkovich. Last guess. Totally. I’m sure it’s wrong. But this challenge is more addictive than Wordle 😊
I think the name of almost every violinist known to mankind has been mentioned here. Just to cover all bases, I have written to heads of all governments requesting the names of all children and grown ups who play the violin in their countries so I can attach the list here.

Love the performance style and tone. I would like to guess this violinist maybe Josef Gingold or Boris Goldstein. Thank you.
One more guess was Ilya Kaler
I'm getting obsessed. Just one more: Felix Galimir
The reveal will be worth it I guess:)
David Nadien
That was a wonderful evening / night of listening, so thank you for the inspiration. My current best guess is Tessa Lark.
Another valiant guess! :)
@@DanielKurganovOne can only search under the street lights that one knows. Looking forward to the great reveal ❣️

@@DanielKurganovNow that is intriguing. Right now I definitely want to put all this inspiration into practical use. Perhaps it will come to me when I stop searching.
I would guess Philippe Hirschhorn
David Nadien, maybe?
I hear Yankelevich more than Auer in the playing… Hence Nelli Shikolnikova, but perhaps also
Grigori Zhislin ?
David Nadien OR I think it’s probably young Rosand. Sounds like a Del Gesu player.
Well it sounds like Mikhail Bezverkhny,one of my favorite, so I'll go for him.
Vasa Prihoda, Czech, 1900-1960; Arthur Grumiaux, Belgian, 1921-1986
Bronislav Huberman, Manuel Quiroga?
I agree it has a strong Auer-Heifetz style to this. I guess Heifetz's star student Erick Friedman. (Fodor is possible too but it feels less like him)
Not Friedman or Fodor!
And no one related to Heifetz or Auer at all (except of course in the playing!!)
Aaron Rosand?
Erick Friedman?
I don't think it's Croitoru, Lamsma, Shoji, Barati, Kelemen, Midori, Khachatryan, Frang, Benedetti, Kang, or Braunstein. The accuracy is uncanny but in the studio, all things are possible. The style is insightful and free - she executes arpeggios with ease. Her sound is a distinguishing feature of her technique which leads me to believe the mystery violinist is not Rashidova nor Hadelich. Duenas, Frang, Kang, and Braunstein have a similar sound but the warmth is not so apparent. I won't say who it is but I think she was born in China. Her recordings of Sarasate pieces are pretty good. I believe those are sufficient clues. (If it's not who I think it is, I will have to laugh at myself.)

Kyung Wha Chung? don't know if she is Chinese tho
Yang Jing?
@@hi-ur4qd No, she is not my choice.
@@mariorobe4805 My choice is not Kyung Wha Chung.
another guess: Randall goosby?

I would say quite famous! Not 1940-1965…
Maria Ioudenitch? I can't stop thinking about this lol
Is it Alexander Labko!? Has that old school firery sound
Indeed he does! Absolutely love Labko...but this isn't him!
Leonid Kogan?
Sergiu Luca?
And one last thought ( for the moment) Alexander Schneider …
Vasa Prihoda? He's probably older than these recordings, but I haven't seen his name thrown out there yet...
This is driving me crazy, but I'm going to keep guessing until Saturday.... Sean Lee? Pierre Lapointe? Chad Hoopes? Aaron Boyd?
And about the violin, it sure sounds old italian but not like a Strad or Del Gesu.. maybe a Guadagnini or Landolfi?
I know you said not Russian school, but…. Ilya Kaler? He is the only living violinist I am aware of whose playing is very reminiscent of the masters of the past, just like whomever is playing this. His list of teachers includes Abram Shtern.
Totally different playing! :)
