Never heard a performance like this. The two virtually melted into one. Much credit to the pianist whose curiously warm tender tone and endless line creates an supple enwrapping nest that holds the entire piece together which allows the violinist to be as free as he needed. Performance in the highest order.

This is amazing! This sonata convinced me to start studying music. This performance is the perfect version for me, wonderful!

[БорисШалагінов]

Хочу отдельно поблагодарить звукооператора. Звук скрипки и рояля идеально сбалансирован.

Lush, compelling and even mesmerizing in its effect - Augustin is just unrivaled!

[andrewmaxwell]

Mesmerizing playing. Wonderful sense of dynamics and genuinely pleasant to watch. The facial expressions Hadelich uses are neither distracting nor unnatural, unlike many other famous performers. One feels concentrated on the music and the feeling being put into it, seeing the performance as more of an auditory experience than a visual one. We truly need more instrumentalists like you, thank you for sharing your musical interpretations with us.

Currently I am working on this piece. This video, this interpretation and passion gives me inspiration every time. I think I'm in love. ❤

Having heard both interpretations - one by L. Kavakos& D. Trifonov and this one with A. Hadelich&Charles Owen it is so hard to make any preference. Both are amazing, perfect in all regards... Thank you all 4 maestri for your great art!!! You are all amazing... Good luck for your future!!

Sublime Augustin Hadelich, thank you so much for your wonderful performance !!!

[kesim]

Never before did this piece, especially the last movement, made so much musical, structural and emotional sense to me, as with this performance. Thank you both!

[kskim]

This is another level of thrilling performance for Schuman's hidden gem!

The piano is not just supporting the violin, but presenting it's own colours with full of contrasts each other.
