      Honestly, I'm just happy anyone still plays my pieces these days. In a society where the number of classical concert goers is dwindling, it's nice to see I'm still relevant. That, and every musician has a bad day. It's just that some of those bad days are televised concerts in Europe that's all.

    the level of confidence to play the notes exactly and stay pitchperfect with the orchestra, not wear shoes, adjust the rhythm to stand out even more, slap your hand for a mini-applause, force a goofy face for the audience, and then walk out holding your bow on your head like an alien reconnecting to mars.

      Nah. That didn’t look like a wrist slap. That looked like her hand outright cramped and she was quickly trying to rub it out. I do that EXACT same thing when my wrists are aggravated (carpal tunnel syndrome SUCKS), and considering her aggressive style, smaller build, and awkward postures...just OUCH. It made me wince...then, yep, not only seconds later, she clutched her wrist.
      And, well. Female dress shoes are MURDER. So, a confidence thing, sure, but yeah. Plus, I have a feeling she might’ve fallen over if she tried playing with them still on? And if the camera hadn’t panned/they hadn’t zoomed in...you really wouldn’t have known she was barefoot, especially considering her choice of skirt length

    This is what Patricia said: "Thank you guys, for a hilarious review of our Tzigane of some years ago. You may not know it but the conductor is also one of the greatest violinists of our time, thats why he can easily follow. May I however remind you what Diaghilev, inspirator for so much music and artists hundred years ago used to tell his collegues: "Etonnez-moi" (surprise me). If art ceases to surprise and astonish, it becomes a dead museum."

I just think she has something truly original to offer, and I always want to hear her ideas. It's not that she's random in her interpretive choices, they come from a profound understanding of the repertoire and its context. Her approach to sound will never, ever be boring. Makes me want to use gut strings so I can explore too! I hope you were inspired, Brett! I sure was! thanks!

      Zvonimir Tosic disagree, she’s far from “faking originality”. Her interpretations are consistent and if you have the guts to call absurdist art unoriginal then I suppose authors like kafka, Camus and sartre also unoriginal? I think that her original dynamic markings are incredibly unique and quite brilliant. We can see her talent with every technique she utilized. She also wrote a rationale for her performance on Facebook, saying that the reason why she played tzigane that way was because of the culture she was raised in which was heavily gypsy. It’s an interpretation and something that’s dearly personal to her so who are we to criticize her performance?

Creativity and freedom is good to play, its trusting the performer. To follow the music as written, to make rankings of players and competitions is just depressing, kills art (yes, music has also a bit of art between the competitions) destroys the humanity inside us and doesnt give any future to a style. Im a classical performer and its sad how close minded peopoe are, not living life in order to be approved by a master, forgetting to feel whats life about, only focused to play better without any purpose except of increasing technik. First humans, then musicians. First is to have a personal version of the world and life, then goes practicing.

    Ray Chen playing the Mendelssohn violin concerto with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra
    -Versus-
    James Ehnes with Philharmonia Orchestra and Vladimir Ashkenazy
    Is a fantastic example of the question of technicality vs interpretation.
    James Ehnes performance is unquestionably good. His mastery of the music as it is written reveals truths Mendelssohn surely wrote into every note.
    Ray Chen's recording brings his brilliant interpretations to every phrase. An emotional enlightenment that stops me in my tracks and brings me to tears is the end result.
    I don't think there should be any question of whether there is a place for interpretation or not. I love discovering new worlds hiding in familiar places through the perspective of other musicians willing to bare their souls as true masters of their instruments.

    I actually quite like the sliding bow parts, where Kopatchinskaya allows the overtones of the violin/strings to become more apparent. Been there done that with all the "solid" contact points, the precise regulation of speed and pressure etc etc so as to always produce a full, rich sound, or at least a focused delicate one. But K knows all that too, and she's bored with it. She's looking for more, different, and to express the improvisational nature of gypsy music. A cadenza should never be the same, every single time it's played. Maybe the facial expressions are a little over the top, but heck, why not. If she doesn't do them, there will be lots of people out there (Brett and Eddy to start with) who just classify it as "bad technique." Mainly because it's not what *they* were taught, or are used to.
    Yay for originality. I've heard Tzigane *so* many times, and it's cool to hear something different.

    I am not saying, I went to a concert of Patricia Kopatchinskaja BECAUSE of TwoSetViolin, but it added to the excitment. It was a wild ride through the centuries, with a chamber orchestra and a singer, arranged and conducted by her. Definitely an unforgetable and impressive concert.

    as far as i was aware, Cadenzas were meant to be improvised. and the composers wrote out cadenzas to assist the people who weren't very good at improvisation. but since the composer wrote it, lets all blindly follow what they wrote, it shouldn't be different or inspired ever

      Xi Chang i think there is nothing wrong with honouring the composer’s intentions although musical interpretation is up to the performer. I don’t think it’s right to downgrade them for following the music score. And i think the original sounds nicer than her interpretation. Though it’s maybe just my personal taste, but her interpretation are too far of the music score, that it can’t be called tzigane anymore.

    It depends. It does not really bother me when certain freedoms are taken by the performer in pieces that are mainly based on free form and improvisation, such as Rhapsody, and it does not tend to matter to me when this is done in Cadenzas because for that are the Cadenzas in the first place, to show the virtuosity and expression of the interpreter. However, this does not mean that because the interpreter decides to show his "individual artistic freedom of expression", the result will sound good or be of artistic quality; people with poor judgment tend to value the mere individual expresion just for the sake of individual expresion and not the result of this same expression, the individual expression is not the artistic end per se and you can not value a work only because "express the individuality of its interpreter/composer", but for the aesthetic result that remains of this expression; said in a simpler way: the result should be evaluated, not the method; and besides that, art can not be reduced to the mere emotional expression: the value of the intricate work of composing for voice, coro, ensemble, solo instrument or orchestra, taking care of all the necessary elements to obtain a work of astetic beauty is worth much more than the most virtuous cadenza; the first thing is disciplined and transcendental, the second one is impulsive and ephemeral.
    Apart from that, in a work of art there is no greater force than the will of the author, the most beautiful works are written specifically by their authors and these express the will and vision of its author, therefore, the attachment to the tradition is not only to show respect to the author's vision but also to keep it eternal, because that is what art should be: eternal; kept alive and inherited to the new generations as testimony of a potential and virtue of the human being; harsh as it may sound, the ephemeral character of improvisation can never be compared to the transcendental character of the art of composition, and therefore, the "individual artistic expression" of the performer can NEVER be prepend over the will and vision of the author. (Take into account that this "author's vision" thing is also under the same criteria that I apply to the interpreter's expression in the previous paragraph).
    Based on the above, I lean towards tradition of interpretation.
