@@wk5269 Sir: I have seen and responded to the article you highlight. Briefly, I felt Mr Zukerman's treatment of this Asian violinist was insensitive, perhaps highly so, but not offensive. You want to take one incident from Mr Zukerman's life and label him a bigot? With this logic, we are all bigots. Bigotry loses its potency with this constant dilution of its true import. My comment was from a different situation, and I stand by it. Maybe watching that particular post again might help. Hopefully you do not take comfort in revelling in the discovered faults of others.

John e martin III We have six lessons by Yehudi Menhuin

In his 80's? So he was in PR when he saw Pablo Casals?

+Tullochgorum Learning basics = failed masterclass... :/

I saw Henryk Szering do the same thing in the green room before a concert. Open string slow long bow legato for 15 minutes.

+Ami Levy , The student is too beautiful!

+mogbaba Not as beautiful as his playing..!!!

Bar Mayerovitcz Because you have musical artistic eyes!

mogbaba Hahaha Clever answer. Lol

I might not have noticed either, but there was a clue: I am not aware of any violin transcriptions of the first work she played.

😂

Schubert appegione

+marisol hernandez Lol

Anna Mogul the "annoying" woman is most likely her full time teacher who is responsible for developing Helena's talent. she's there to make sure Helena get's the most out of the session.

Anna Mogul Her name is Patinka Kopec. Weekly lessons are taught to the Zukerman Performance Program class by Patinka Kopec, who has been personally selected by Mr. Zukerman to be his sole teaching associate and the program coordinator.

just as I thought- the teacher is so important and emotionally invested in the student

you are sooooo ignorant.......

Unfortunately this often happens with the viola which is an instrument larger and heavier than the violin. One must be attentive to his position while playing. Tips from PZ very interesting on the basic technique, a little different than that used in europe (especially in france). I have already seen this taught by a Canadian. (sorry for my english...) ;-)

Sorry I didn't know who she was

Dusan Markovic all great students have a teacher- the "annoying woman " is most likely her teacher who is responsible for developing her talent.

Dusan Markovic ......her mother ? Who knows, who cares ? I don't need a violin lesson.

Right?!

I was having the same thought😂😂

She is Patinka Kopec, long time assistant to Mr. Zukerman´s classes.

@dwald channel dude I know... i just make fun of PC people

Are you kidding? You can't teach a string instrument without physical contact.! Where have you studied?

@@isabelvalero5104 never heard of sarcasm? Sit

Grow up and don’t take anything away from peoples music.

Nice display of asian fragility here

Good point, and racism should be challenged. He made a mistake. Have you also ever made a mistake? Have you also contributed anything to music and culture across the world on the level of Mr Zukerman?

@@nickyork8901 Mistake? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣You don't make mistakes when giving speeches and final remarks at a symposium with 100 global audience members watching. When you say Asian people have no DNA to sing or they should use more soy sauce in their performances or fixing a student's posture by mocking Asian string players, you don't mistakenly say that. That is completely intentional, which reflects your deeply rooted view on certain group of people according to psychology. Have I contributed to the world of music? Of course, I have although I didn't know my contribution to the world of music gives me rights to mock musicians who are not from my ethnical background and be forgiven because it was just a mistake. According to your theory, I have all my rights to mock you and your people because I have won international and national music competitions, have performed in 11 different countries, have taught music to orphans in Kenya and Cambodia with a donation of recorders from Carnegie Hall, and have volunteered to teach music to children who are mentally challenged. Where are you from so I can make fun of you and your people? I will be forgiven and understood anyway because ignorant people like you will tell me it was a mistake. Does this sound morally alright to you? Please, please tell me where you are from. I can't wait to make fun of you and your people and I am really good at that 😂😂😂

R K, shut up, fragile dog, cry more 😊

He also famously made ignorant dismissive remarks including the word sh*t about period instrument players. OK, he's a skilled player, but this doesn't give him the right to be an a**seh*le

Anti-semitism is alive and well. I have seen him live and marvelled at his bowing and sound.

@Salo Kin Anti-semitism isn’t tolerated but anti-Asian is fine and acceptable, that’s your theory, huh? What a wonderful world,,,.

You need English lessons

You're a fool. Zuckerman is racist and (ironically) somewhat uncreative as an artist, but for all that his bow arm is *fantastic.* I would even argue he's so famous despite his various flaws because his bow arm is just that good, few can make such a beautiful sound.
