Limitless creativity, musicality, & technicality. Absolutely my favorite Cadenza.

[Samvarth_Seegehalli]

Unlike the other cadenzas for Paganini's 1st violin concerto, which are just excuses to show how good the player is, Augustin's Cadenza has a sense of musicality and at the same time, gives the feeling of Paganini's virtuosity. Bravo!

[toddmurphy]

Not only this cadenza, but this entire performance with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra will become a "classic performance" of this Paganini Concerto.

I love how elegantly he references different parts of the 1st movement, and how he includes the orchestra's melodies as well. Also THOSE HARMONICS! Absolutely stunning. And his intonation and sound are just as incredible. Amazing job!!!👍👍👍👍👍

[fredlifsitz]

So pure and fresh. Classic and no extraneous noise or movement. Augustin
Is spectacular.

[adambe]

Those harmonics are from a different world. I'm speechless

[Ciaccona]

1:28 the sweetest moment. Makes me smile every time ❣️

Augustin ist meiner Meinung nach eine riesen Inspiration für jeden Musiker da draußen. Ich hatte die Ehre ihn zwei Tage hintereinander sehen zu können, in der Kölner Philharmonie. Ich liebe klassische Musik, aber er hat mich besonders berührt. Als ich seine Leidenschaft gesehen habe, musste ich an mich als kleines Kind und meinen Geigenlehrer denken, als ich mit 9 angefangen habe Geige zu spielen, leider habe ich nach einer sehr kurzen Zeit wieder aufgehört. Jetzt fange ich aber wieder an, danke Augustin!♥️

Oh my GOSH THOSE HARMONIC Augustin, you are truly the gods fiddler of our time...

[micaelabonetti]

Festival of cadenzas 🎻!

Grazie, Augustin 🙏

It fits in so well you would never know otherwise and perfectly executed.

[JeanClaudeWelche]

Tout est maîtrisé, chaque vibrato, ... pas de hasard, pas de place à la chance... justesse + que parfaite... sonorité dans l'aigu incroyable...

i literally love this man omgggg he’s a genius and a legend

[montanasea]

Je m'émerveille à chaque fois, merci pour tant d'émotions et d'intelligence. Il m'aura fallu pas mal d'années avant de retrouver ces frissons, et puis vous êtes là...enfin...🥰

[phoebea]

Excellent as usual, maestro! Your bow control is absolute. I still can't quite wrap my head around the double-stop harmonics.

[shin-i-chikozima]

The sound of his wonderful performance is gold

[vai]

My favorite of Augustin's cadenzas! 💚

[durban]

Hadelich’s playing leaves me inspired. No words for this masterful performance.

[mataso_br]

i loved it, it seams you like to put some parts of the orchestral tutti in your cadenzas and I think this is very creative and unique on your part, also having taken a more musical path in the cadenza of this concerto as opposed to sauret's cadenza was a genius idea

[ynot]

This is fantastic! I just watched the video of the entire captivating performance yesterday so to hear this again is such a treat.
