Sergei Prokofiev - Violin Concerto No.2 in G minor Opus 63 (26')
0:14 I. Allegro moderato
10:52 II. Andante assai
20:43 III. Allegro, ben marcato
The Easter Festival is an internationally renowned event among classical music lovers, traditionally opened in Moscow on Easter Sunday. Each year the Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra and its musical director Valery Gergiev travel across Russia - for the past 10 years now!
In 2012 we were given an exceptional musical gift: the Mariinsky Theatre Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Valery Gergiev performed the complete cycle of Sergei Prokofiev’s symphonies and piano concerti - a composer with whom Maestro Gergiev and the orchestra seem particularly in tune.
He has the best hair out of the whole orchestra
This is because he is the soloist. It is a status symbol, as the sociologists say.
Lol that's what you noticed? ><
It's true though, his hair = goals
u have wort iq
Absolutely the best version of my favourite violin concerto. I'm upset because I've never heard it before! What an orchestra, conductor and as a fiddler myself (RPO) I have to say what a performance from Leonid! My God! I listened twice one after the other. Thank You everyone. Love from Tottenham. England and Solidarity in these dangerous times. Humanity is Universal
Amazing how he tackled that horribly awkward finale with such ease!!!
Possibly my favourite interpretation of the finale
In the future, people won't think "Stalin" when 1930s Russia is mentioned, but "Prokofiev."
I hope you are right. It's chilling to remember that Prokofiev and Stalin died on the same day: March 5, 1953.
not2tees I mean people are already doing that, sort of.
Shostakovich, please.
aha...@@donaldallen1771
I don't believe at all.There will never forget the "Jeschowina". A collective nightmare.
The Day Prokofiev died,5.3.1953,Stalin died. There wasn't any flower for Prokofiev s Funeral.
Kavakos the Best!
0:14 Allegro Moderato
10:52 Andante Assai
20:43 Allegro, ben marcato
Kavakos nailed that concerto.
lol 24:27 1st flautist was like "whatever man"
In the music hangman video, after Eddy guessed Prokofiev 2, Brett said "If you don't know it, get cultured!"
So here I am.
Two set!! Lets gooo
23:27
BRAVO LEONİDAS "Çok teşekkürler "
Incredible, inspiring technique Kavakos has. Prokofiev probably knew the concerto would be premiered in Spain and so he inserted the castanets in the third movement. Or perhaps it's just a coincidence. He could have used any other noise maker but he didn't. Bravo!!
He's fantastic violinist!
Μεγαλη συγκηνηση για τον Λεωνιδα Καβακο!!! Τιμα την Ελλαδα μας!! Λεωνιδα σ'ευχαριστουμε πολυ!!!!
Kavakos' the very best attraction comes from the posture of the BOW HAND which has changed from his young period. The FIGURA of his bow hand gained extremely utilizing all the knuckle bones as much as a human structure can project!
Incredibilmente bello il suono di Leonidas Kavakos.Bellissima esecuzione anche dell'orchestra
D'Accordo.
People that have these skills, as Leonidas, do that life is easier!
I Love the Second Movement and Leonidas play it masterful.
Amazing performance!!!!! Well done!!!!
Great sound, perfect tune, very good pace.... Inspiring!
Two great personality, unique musicians = brilliant world-famous Greek violinist Leonidas Kavakos and the outstanding conductor of the Mariinsky Theatre Valery Gergiev fascinated the entire Universe, millions of fans, thanks to its unique creativity. Excellent performance of Violin Concerto number 2 in G Minor, Op. 63 by Sergei Prokofiev = composer, pianist, conductor. Creativity Prokopyeva is characterized by vocal symphonic works, instrumental concertos, operas, ballets, cantatas, oratorios, symphonies, piano sonatas, etudes. With undoubted talent, unbridled fantasy, bright, glamorous, brilliant music, created real masterpieces. Excellent performance of a work by the Greek musician Leonid Kavakos. What a magnificent performance which virtuosity, what emotions, charm, passion and craftsmanship, gorgeous compelling improvisation. Wonderful orchestra with excellent musicians with perfect technique and a great game. What a pleasure to revel in the fascinating game of the great musician, my compatriot, whom I am proud of.
잘했어요..
Good job...
What a complicated and profound writing is.
@@youngwoo5860 Thanks so much, I'm happy!!!🌹
I adore the delicacy of his playing.
I love this interpretation with Kavakos and Gergiev!!! Thanks a lot!!
Superb,congratulations,Thank you
Bravo Leonidas
Wondering if Kavakos could spare Gergiev a little hair!
Phenomenal💕💕💕
este es mi concierto para violin favorio, de Prokofiev xD pero, lo puedo catalogar como la pieza mas hermoza que he escuchado
De Accuerdo.
Perfectly done!
Sublime. Extasis total.
Wonderful violinist. Heifetz told to his students , " Do not wear eye glasses when you play by heart" . I wonder why he said that.
Kavakos is leading for all time.
This is not the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory! This is Consert Hall of the Mariinsky theater in Saint-Petersburg! (3 stage)
But, what a wonderful orchestral music he lead! ^^
Great!!!
Muito bom!! Bravo!Bravi! Very well!
In the second movement the winds are so cute
Dio in terra. Senza parole.
24:27 the upset flautist haha... you're being filmed man, where's the professional face at?
looking forward to hear Vadim Repin playing this piece in Zagreb;D
발레리 게르기예프님은 이제 막 선술집에서 기분좋게 취한 상태로 이쑤시개를 들고 나와 지휘하시는 것 같애 ㅋ ㅋㅋ
앗! 정말 이쑤시게 같은거 손에 있네.
맨손인줄 알았는데. 유별나다. 보이지도 않을텐데. 양손 지휘 테크닉이 어지러워
보임.
Top performance!
why does gergiev take a toothpick as conductor's baton? suppose he was dining when the concert began.
This is a Stradivari toothpick, specially suited for concertos played with Strad violins.
24:42
Does any one else here a man's voice from 12:20 to 12:40 ?
I don't, but probably missed it?
This is definitely not Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory
Stop it with the toothpick, you all behave as if it was your first time seeing Gergiev conduct
alguém me explica esse palito de dentes na mão do Gergiev, primeira vez que eu vejo algo assim
Também fiquei curioso,
Gergiev geralmente conduz com um palito de dentes. Acho que é pra orquestra prestar mais atenção nos gestos dele do que na batuta (se isso fizer sentido).
@@miguelfontesmeira mas o q eu acho estranho é q o Karajan sempre regeu sem batuta e com leves movimentos de sobrancelha e tava tudo bem. O gergiev é brilhante, mas esteticamente esse palito... Parece q acabou de comer um ovo de codorna e tá com pena de desperdiçar o toco de madeira... Estranhérrimo...
Gergiev es mundialmente conocido como "el zar del palillo"
La vie en rose...
1:34 6:35 13:18
Fine performance of one of the finest violin concertos. Much better than the overdone histrionics of Janine Jansen, who makes the final movement sound as if she's using a hacksaw rather than a bow.
23:37 is like some kind of "Lick" in the 3rd movement.
16:34 this is some Stravinsky-esque stuff
Някой може ли да ми обясни-ЗАЩО Прокофиев е записал Тема, която Очевидно е в 5/4-в 4/4 !?! Според мен-единствено и само -за да затрудни Оркестъра...Т.е. -Самоцелно.Някои му казват -''да се направи на интересен''... (Никой не оспорва виртуозността на солиста, оркестъра и великият Гергиев). Can anyone explain to me-WHY Prokofiev wrote a Topic, which is obviously in 5/4-in 4/4!?! In my opinion - only and only - to make it difficult for the Orchestra ... Ie. Some say to him - "to make it interesting" ... (Nobody disputes the virtuosity of the soloist, the orchestra and the great Gergiev).
12:14 sounds a bit weird to play open string E.
He did that to express the openness and kinda wild-life feeling, like natural nature (sorry, bad grammar)
That kinda feeling
I think it's OK to be slightly wild there.
It's also in the score
He's kinda out of control for some moments tho and it's not that bad because it only gives character to the orchestra which is kinda cool I guess.
Between the movement (in my headphones)... I heard my mate, who lives in a different room, cough. I am pissed
It's irresistable! Even when they can't hear the music, they are triggered to cough...
The soloist plays by himself. Dutch concert
Is the conductor using a tooth pic ?
Valerie Gergiev is knowed by the nickname: "toothpic zar"
I feel Rachmaninoff
00:18
i swear to god he has done keratin on hair
I've never really understood the first movement.
I just want to meet up with those 9 people who clicked the dislike button and have a cute little chit-chat.
LOL Toothpick Concerto
Its so frustrating watching Gergiev-his beat seems to have no connection with what is going on in the orchestra.
Hi, emotional value! Way past virtuosity exessive.

Kavakos is really great, but he talks too much.
1910th .... what
Great playing, but undoubtely boring when compared with other versions (Jansen and others)
just because the man has now"show" and glamour,other than true musicianship and integrety , he is "undoubtely boring" ????? I bet you are not a musician
Actually I am, and I know the concerto well (and played it). I admire Kavakos as one of the best violinist today, but he is not my favorite in this concerto. His technique his amazing, but not as creative and colorful here as others like Jansen - who again is not my favorite in everything either- Listen just to the opening phrase. Unavoidable to compare in youtube, with all these great players at the right side of the screen waiting to show their renditions...! Believe me, glamour doesn´t distract me ;)
I believe you:-)
boring is a subjective word, and boring by comparison is even more subjective. The expression Kavakos has in the opening line is very different than Jansen's, much more subtle, subdued, and internal. it's personal preference at the end of the day, but I wouldn't diminish his interpretation by calling it boring, that's not what art is about.
couldnt agree more
a completely inexpressive opening - how this guy became famous is a wonder -
+muslit you must be joking son.
He plays that opening in such a hauntingly powerful but not overstated way - musical power that listeners who are desperate to be wowed with colour and vibrancy, perhaps like yourself, will always miss
An amazingly over-rated violinist. Of course, this is the period of technical clones and musical mediocrity, so therefore Kavakos, and many others like him, must be considered.
what is amazingly over-rated about him, specifically? Do you have big reasons to back up your big statements? I hope so.
Jonathan Garabedian, Leonidas just plays the notes, no personality at all!
Perhaps we are too used to artists imposing their personalities and ideas on composers. Would you rather hear Kavakos playing Prokofiev, or Prokofiev being played by Kavakos? We are all secondary to the music, and in my opinion Kavakos allows Prokofiev's music to shine through and not his own ideas and ego...that is artistic integrity.
I couldnt agree more !
simple...jealousy
I don't like his posture holding his bow and his intonation is middle-rate, I am sorry!
I guess yours is way better :)
he plays the first two repetitions of the opening exactly the same, in the 2nd position - how boring, how unmusical
+muslit you must be joking son.
+Nathan Selman No, I'm not joking, and I'm not your son
+muslit Out of the hundreds of bars throughout this entire piece, the first two were already enough to put you off. And all because "he plays the first two repetitions of the opening the same". Way to nitpick
It was enough to put me off for the last two movements. I am familiar with Kavakos's playing. The orchestra I play in just performed the Sibelius Concerto with a new wunderkind, Karen Su. We performed it twice, and she played it exactly the same way both times. Of course, one has to admire the technical proficiency for one so young (17), and the musical maturity will come later. But I would be hard-pressed to know any real difference, if someone asked me, between Kavakos's or Su's rendition, or Hahn's or Ehnes', for that matter, of the same concerto. It all sounds the same to me. A generic musical and technical approach to the violin dominate the scene today. Gone are the days of the Franco-Belgium School, the Italian School, the German School, Russian School, the English School. It's basically German Generic and Russian Tech. There are those who stand out: Janine Jansen, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Sergey Khatchatryan, Christian Tetzlaff - for their musicality and individual approach to the repertoire. But the younger the violinist, it seems, the more profound is the conformity.
