1. Allegro maestoso 0:53

Something important to know about this concert is that he was playing Paganini's violin, the Guarneri del Gesu "Il Cannone." He was able to use it for a few days before and I believe there was constant security around the instrument.

it is trully an existential delight to see how Mintz is 'dreaming' the music when he has a pause and he just listens to the orchestra playing on :)))

LOVE when the soloist's cadenza isn't the SAME ONE everyone else plays, and played so excitingly and ornamented with sections from the movement itself; so masterful!

that cadenza....aw come on man. Shlomo, you're killing me.

Концерт Паганини для скрипки с оркестром 1 ре мажор, соч.6

Played on Paganini's own violin "Il Cannone" 1743 by Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesu :)

Anyone who wants to imitate Paganini with a Violin ; is a very brave musician So Bravo Shlomo

The most beautiful sound that can be created by a violinist. He is bringing every note to life. I am so thankful for being alive and listen to this. Thank you dear Shlomo Mintz. I think your desire for being a pilot came true by playing the violin. I feel like traveling in the whole universe sitting in your plane.

Per un genio immortale del violino come Paganini ci voleva un altrettanto geniale violinista come Slomo

שלמה מינץ ! הביצוע שלך מבריק ומרגש! טכניקה כל כך גבוהה והמון רגש. כוכב אמיתי!! תענוג להאזין לך! תודה גדולה! הדסה, ישראל

This world is full of wonderful performances like this

Keep comments respectful? Horrors. Absolutely Magnificent! Breathtaking!

Mintz was the most complete violinist on the planet at this point in time.

Bravissimo. Meraviglioso. Stupendo. Grazie di cuore

Excelente versión tanto del solista, la orquesta como del director

O início deste concerto parece como uma sinfonia. Ouço várias vezes repetidamente. Paganini foi um gênio e este é o meu concerto preferido. Muito bom

Magnífico! Talento puro este violinista!!!!!!!

Ha sido una de la mejores versiones que he escuchado del concierto 1 de Paganini
