best version ever

もう、何回聴いたかわからないくらい聴いてます。 言葉にもならないほどに感動します

Hard to believe that it's only 2 musicians making that enormous, moving sound.

Now this is what Danse macabre should sound like!!!!!

i agree with you, the violist played very impressively, additionally, there was no cough, What a record !

I'm a big fan of Saint-Saens, and I really like this piece of music in particular, so I've heard a number of different recordings of it over the years. This is far and away the best performance of Danse Macabre I've had the pleasure to listen to. Bravissimo!

Браво!!!!👏👏👏💐

Vesko Eschkenazy.......brilliant!

Amazing!

어느 하나가 어느 하나의 반주가 되는 일 없이 생상스 곡 특유의 악기끼리 대화하는 느낌을 너무 완벽하게 재현, 바이올린도 피아노도 연주자들의 특성이 한음한음 살아서 몇 십년 전의 영상이지만 너무 감동입니다. 최고에요 best of danse macabre 🥲🥲

Who is able to dislike this magi?

WOW speechless

There might be mistakes, but it's still the best version you can find on youtube. No-one plays it with such passion, and the tempo is right (the other versions you can hear are excruciatingly slow !!!) Great job !

Very nice, even felt like a duet.

bravo!!!

he plays like its in a dream real in front of you

Fenomenal !!!! Me encanta. Realmente mucha emoción.

Great, fantastic! Kudos!

Beautiful.

This piece is so cool!

This is amazing!

magnificent!!

Oh wow. I've only ever heard the orchestral version but this is amazing!

Ekselent!!!!!! thanks

I smell Death in the violin solo, and Yeah, the violin solo pard is supposed to be heard scary coz it was played by a devil who was summoning ghosts and skeletons. I like this one more than other versoins I had heard before!

Genius !

This is one of my best video!!

wonderful!

AMAZING

i see a lot of Shlomo mintz technique in this violin player, very alike face gestures and charm while he plays, fantastic interpretation i enjoyed it a lot.

LOVELYYYYYYYYYY

BRAVOO!!!!!!!!!!!

they're both superb - SUPERB - i found this by accident - my lucky day - i like this far better than any orchestral recording - they're both so full of life - or is it death? - thanks for posting

Las manos del pianista son unas pulguitas saltarinas :3

Hey, I was giving my opinion up here just like everyone else. People there were probably paying to hear them so they should be open to criticism, I was not totally trashing them so relax.

Is that a legitimate question or just a little sarcasm?

@Xpector2001 vladimir ashkenazi (not sure of the spelling though)

The sheet music is easy to come by. I got a copy literally 1 month ago. Fentone, Durand, and Kalmus all print this arrangement. In terms of any criticism of the players, this is unwarranted. This is a foul piece to play for both instruments; the piano part edges the violin part for difficulty. Pulling off the piece with this level of passion and accuracy is no mean feat. This is live music, not a sanitised multi-take recording, and as such it really is a masterful performance by both players.

Okay, let me rephrase. Maybe a "lot" wasn't the best word. How about a "number"? "Few"? I don't just sit and listen for mistakes but when I'm actively listening to something, meaning I'm sort of concentrating on it and blocking everything else out, and suddenly something stands out that, how should I say, breaks that "trance" you're in, do you know what I mean now? Like driving down that glass smooth road and finding the surprise pothole! Kind of like that piano bench..."KA-RAAAAAAKKKK!!" :-p

5:32 disaster approaching..... 5:47 Disaster! =(

haha :D

*****

That's ecstasy, that is.

@gogolusa I give an honest opinion on something mentioning PROS as well as cons and a year later people are still bitching about it.

I like the way the violinist just plays this like he knows just what he's doing, if you know what I mean. However, he gets carried away a couple times strikes the string a little too hard hitting the neighboring string resulting in this horrible sound. The pianist made a number of mistakes, mostly when he decides to get carried away with the tempo which I think hurts this more than anything else. This sounded good but the other vid up here with a girl doing her senior recital is about even.

The violinist looks like Otho from Beetlejuice!!!!!!

Oh, no. I'm just a Joe that's been around music to some degree for my whole life. I'm no expert on anything but I know what I like. And I usually know a mistake when I hear it, God knows, I make enough myself. I'm getting my ass torn here over a little criticism - oh the pain. I never said they sucked, in fact I think they sound quite good but you have to admit, if you don't hear a whole lot of mistakes here you're not listening.

A bit overpowered by the piano

he plays very well, but this music must be played with orchestra. with piano it sound really weak.

Happy Halloween !
