I'm Romanian from Voivodina & this definitely has correct Romanian tonal characteristics for the violin. I've heard several versions that were unbelievably off, but this is one of the better versions.
asherasator, i do not contest your judgment but i believe Janine Jansen was the best and you cannot count her in your list of unbelievably offs. Kindly re-try to listen to her and may be you will have a different view.
Teddy They said this version is ONE of the better versions, meaning there’s a couple others they think is good. Jansen could possibly be under the better ones
Down the Romanian Folk music rabbit hole again....it is almost midnight I'm in bed here in Florida USA and it is raining outside ....this music is perfect.
I’heard several diffetent interpreters but none has touched my soul with such delight and shudders like yours (both of you!!). I even had a period of three months where I listened to this daily!! Thanks for all that joy!!!!!! Great work and God, WELL DONE!!!
I have been listening to this recording for years. A quality that I haven't heard on any other rendition of this piece. It gives me hope for the new generations of performers and stands against the silly notion of "they don't make them like this anymore."
Holy Kow! Delicate touch. Bartok done got my attention when I was 10 years old - Isaac Stern's performance of the violin Concerto in D. But That seemed all angles and really exotic harmonies, and percussive aggression upon the instrument... well a lot.. I played some of those melodies as a kid, simpler arrangements, but Ms. Lark has made these come to life and open up whole new vistas. THANKS!
Great playful and mysterious like the music itself, the third movement sounds the entrance to a dark green Forrest inhabited by little creatures, the water drops from the leaves and everyone is in a circle dancing
This is really an exceptional performance in so many ways!! Absolutely wonderful! In fact, as many times as I've heard this piece played by so many artists, this has already become my most favorite recording.
Tessa, we've never met and I never heard your stuff before until now but this is such an underrated performance--great work! The subtleties in your phrasing, emphasis, even ornamentation are outstanding and on point. In addition to that, the way you embody the full capacities of the bow and instrument when it's time to lay into the strings and maintain brilliance with strength in the sound is probably the best I've heard for all the renditions I've listened to yet. I can only imagine how awesome it would have sounded in the hall, what a treat! Congrats and great work to you and your accompanying Pianist too. edit: for what it's worth I've been living under a rock or in the wilds of other music when it comes to folks in the classical world over the past 10+ years or so but my comments still stand.
Hi I just wanted to say thank you to all the other musicians out there in this brutal world for reducing reviving and saving hope for all the hopelessness and hopeless in this world is crazy. Thank you. I myself am a violinist in Illinois a war ridden area of hell.
En écoutant toute la musique de Bartok je ne m'ennuie jamais. Il innove dans tous les rythmes avec de l'action. Il secoue la cage et l'académisme. C'est plein de nouveautés et de surprises. C'est difficile de trouver les mots justes. Je le perçois comme un musicien vraiment libre de créer sans se soucier des biens pensants.
Tessa, Tessa , Tessa. This is indescribably beautiful. So much so that my head has exploded and bits of my brain have exploded and gone all over the room where I keep my laptop. In the morning I'm going to have to pick them all up and take them to the local hospital so that the surgeons can screw them back in. I love it millions of times over. xxxxx The gentleman is a wonderful pianist too.
Have they ever been played with so much character and vitality.She makes each 9ne glisten! A single note with her has color-&meaning! Well shaped phrases here too.Eould like to hear her 8n Bartokno2 concerto.Her naturalness has the first 8n the bag.We've all heard these s million times and they are a welcome relief in most programmes!
Lovely. Splendid. I realize some of the audio may have been produced separately from the video but the synchronization is nearly perfect. Bravo!!!! Every recording artist - even Heifetz - records multiple takes to get the performance as perfect as possible. (Nothing wrong with that)
Such a beautiful, fun and energetic composition. Can viserally feel the dance energy pulsing throughout the work. Wonderfully played and filmed, I truly enjoyed watching this and will watch it again for absolute sure.
I'm glad you can hear a difference Lindsay ! I was only able a slight improvement in ringing. Only a little in the guttural low end. I've been considering a harp for either my two violins but so far haven't sprung. Thank you for this offer. I have a lutier60 miles away who has a harp tailpiece , I'm just not sure the cosmetics is right with the diagonal string line. Wallace Ritchey an old author recommends one . Am seriously considering it but won't know untill I'm playing one. Bless you for this revelation. YOUR violin sounds wonderful !😅
A wonderful interpretation of this Bartok Romanian Folk Dances Hit! Seldom have I heard it played better. Bravo to both Tessa Lark and Yannick Rafalimanana!
Basic Bedard was a great app and it is very good for was a great way of thinking and it would never have been better but I wanna is a new year for was the day I was able too I am so excited for is next week to come back and get it back and get the back up in a new contract with the new number of the paperwork to the office to see what the time of the audition. #randomwords
YOURE NOT ALLOWED TO DO AMAZING ON SUCH A PIECE YOUR NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE PERFECT INTONATION!! YOURE NOT ALLOWED TO HELP ME PLAY THIS PIECE FOR AUDITIONS AND RECITALS WITH THIS RECORDING! THIS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL TO SLAY LIKE THIS
Hi Tessa. I have question in reference to the cutting in Vidio. This is clear as your hair is sometimes Front and other times behind. I really hope the music is not doctored too.
Good luck with the new year to the new contract with you and ur mom and your son and you and to help him with his work he is a yuyyyyy right on my dad and he wants me know what I gotta
ABSOLUTELY MARVELLOUS!! Thank you!!!!!

Thanks :)
This was and is my daughter's preferred recording of this piece. It's just fabulous... and helped her so much. Thank you.
I listen to this recording alot.
Leila Warren this is what I’m using now
This is the best version for me. Enjoyed it more than Oistrakh's and Repin's versions. Tessa Lark truly captured the soul of this music.
Down the Romanian Folk music rabbit hole again....it is almost midnight I'm in bed here in Florida USA and it is raining outside ....this music is perfect.
ha! its 6 am here in germany and its hopeless thinking of going to sleep anytime soon. but yes, i empathise with you!
I’heard several diffetent interpreters but none has touched my soul with such delight and shudders like yours (both of you!!). I even had a period of three months where I listened to this daily!! Thanks for all that joy!!!!!! Great work and God, WELL DONE!!!
yes i agree, i must heard countless ones, but this one is the definitive one for me. can't put my finger on it, why, but I've rarely been so sure.
I LOVE the Romanian dances of Bartók ❤
You both are amazing artists, Bartok must be dancing of joy up there :-)
One of the best renditions of the Dances that I have heard. A very solid duo. A winner!
I have been listening to this recording for years. A quality that I haven't heard on any other rendition of this piece. It gives me hope for the new generations of performers and stands against the silly notion of "they don't make them like this anymore."
Man, this brings back memories playing this. Only not as well, obviously, The teamwork with the pianist is a joy

Szépen szól a hegedűje a művésznőnek ,Köszönöm Bartók Béla számokat.
A hark, a Lark, a passionate spark... I can listen and write to this beautiful performance for hours on end.
Perfection from both the violinist and the pianist! Absolutely beautiful -- speaks to the soul!
Great playful and mysterious like the music itself, the third movement sounds the entrance to a dark green Forrest inhabited by little creatures, the water drops from the leaves and everyone is in a circle dancing

Thank you for giving this music to the world, playing it with so much heart and soul!
Played beautifully! Great musician! Thank you with all my heart!❤
I cry to the sheer beauty of this
you have no life
Chan has no life.
This interpretation has become a reference for me. All the best for the IVCI!!!

The best performance I have found for this piece. Fantastic!

Out of many , you have reached perfection . You are verry ,verry capable.
Lovely. Splendid. I realize some of the audio may have been produced separately from the video but the synchronization is nearly perfect. Bravo!!!! Every recording artist - even Heifetz - records multiple takes to get the performance as perfect as possible. (Nothing wrong with that)
Sometimes an artist will get the first "take" to go as near perfect as possible but that is VERY rare.
this piece is great and all, but my hand is in so much pain lmao
same lol
samee
samee
this is my fav piece but definitely not my fingers'
TOTALMENTE MAGNÍFICO EXCELENTE TECNICA🪷🌺
One of my favorite pieces of music. This version is the best, it has so much soul. Touches me deeply.
SO INCREDIBLE
Her artificial harmonics are perfection! Esos son muy dificil.
Merveilleux !!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Merci.
Simply marvelous ….
So lovely! They are amazing chamber players.
Such a beautiful, fun and energetic composition. Can viserally feel the dance energy pulsing throughout the work. Wonderfully played and filmed, I truly enjoyed watching this and will watch it again for absolute sure.
so good!!! love this recording!!
Exquisitely technical, but at the same time completely free ❤
The video, the music and artists are awesome! Absolutely love it ❤
Fantastic xx
At the very last bar I had the impression that the power of her violin will kick her to the ground!
What a funpiece!!
Very delicately played - I like this 'classic' style of performance as much as I do the more rough gypsylike one. Thanks!
I'm glad you can hear a difference Lindsay ! I was only able a slight improvement in ringing. Only a little in the guttural low end. I've been considering a harp for either my two violins but so far haven't sprung. Thank you for this offer.

A wonderful interpretation of this Bartok Romanian Folk Dances Hit! Seldom have I heard it played better. Bravo to both Tessa Lark and Yannick Rafalimanana!
I am seriously crying.The first four songs OMG the beauty that we humans are capable of.
Carácter, carácter y más carácter. Vibrante , avasalladora y sutil a la vez la interpretación. Digna de Bartok.
Excellent performance of this great little work!
Who is playing vibrato at min 4:05?
Illuminati
Great catch! Looks like they recorded audio and video separately.
Wow! super catch!
Ling Ling
Omg, but did they really record seperately? That's a lot of work.
I adore these Bartok arrangements - this is a gorgeous performance; reminiscent of Kurt Nikkanen's recordings.
Genialidade e bom gosto de Bartok. Quanta criatividade! A interpretação está à altura do compositor.
It's wonderful! Great performance!
Oh, how talent speaks!
Is this available to purchase or download as an mp3? Would love to buy a copy of this rendition.
go to break.tv and you can download an mp3
what a fantastic performance, congratulations Tessa !
Beautiful
Wow what a beautiful, nuanced , and controlled sound. What kind of violin is it?
Teresa's stunning interpretation cannot be beaten.
Beautiful in the extreme!!

Definitivamente, me encanta!!
Very impressive!
Stunning interpretation

Bravo 👏🏼💐 wonderful 💐
1:37 and 3:19 are beautiful
Why then does her hair keep changing from on her back to over her shoulder?
Magnificent
Fav preformance
This sounds really nice

Oh, apparently they've recorded it more than once
Bravo!

Hi Tessa. I have question in reference to the cutting in Vidio. This is clear as your hair is sometimes Front and other times behind. I really hope the music is not doctored too.
