I'd be grateful to a lot of people if this violin genius could give concerts - with orchestra and/or piano - in Belgium.

Absolutely love his use of Rubato and dynamics, very beautiful interpretation!

Love this!! A musical thrill ride up and down a roller coaster, so fluid yet so precise and exacting, those soft parts are like floating on velvet, the end is just epic!! Augustin always seems to be able to go beyond the technical aspects of a piece and bring out the song and the beauty in whatever he plays - as another person commented, this is yet another Hadelich masterpiece!!

Absolutely beautiful!! The three who didn't like it must have cloth ears

[ArjanVanS]

This man doesn’t just play the violin like Senna drove his car, but becomes more than one with the music 🎶‼️ A genius full of soul and heavenly interpretation 🎶🙏‼️

Whaaaat ? Incredible. My favorite version!! Bravo!!!

[SarahCurro]

So much great phrasing - not all about speed I LOVE this!!

[MrInterestingthings]

Great rhthmic sense and the accents .He gives it a profile . You never hear the btw strings when his leaps actually cross strings !

[jujuxvii]

Binge watching all your caprice performances! 🫶

I’m learning this on electric guitar and the string skipping is so hard. Wish me luck, hope I can complete this in at least 6 months.
