Kavakos is so quick yet so accurate in hitting notes. This much is evident in his playing of paganini's caprices

[mcwinn]

This is my favourite performance of that sonata. Its absolutely perfect!

[MichaelCWBell]

This performance is worth the time. There is a strange mix of casualness and beautiful musicality on the part of the violinist. An excellent partnership. As compared with other examples… if you do not hear clearly the fast notes in the opening bar, all is lost immediately in this beautiful music from Ludwig van Beethoven.

Wow, the adagio is out of this world. Magnificent 👏

[tomasaguirre]

God bless Youtube, a whole world of beauty opened up to we mere mortals. What a time to be alive!

[marliswalter]

Wunderbare flexible Tempi in jedem Satz! Alles klingt dadurch natürlich und logisch und atmet. Für mich eine der besten Aufnahmen dieser Sonate. Herzlichen Dank!

[robertchristian]

Impressive! I don't think I've ever heard this done better, engaging from start to finish. Leonidas Kavakos, Enrico Pace ... and Beethoven ☃

[maxdonaldson]

Thanks for good camera work- it's really useful to actually see what Leonidas is doing, so I can borrow his ideas for bowings and fingerings etc

[katerinadimitrakaki]

Sublime Leonidas Kavakos, so impeccably perfect every and each time, thank you so much!

[piusottovoce]

Exemplary rendition...out of this world...firmly positions itself next to iconic recordings like those of Perlman/Ashkenazy and Kagan/Richter...am blown away by the precision and unity of the performance...and the Adagio is like a necromantic spell that magically conjures a soul to life out of thin air...

لا استطيع التوقف عن الابتسامة انها حقا جميلة وهادئة ولطيفة

[hectorricardovegagutierrez]

Mi afición por la música clásica se remonta a cuando yo tenía alrededor de 6 años y mi padre ponía alguno de esos viejos discos de acetato y la obra que más me gustaba oír era precisamente esta sonata. Gracias por la maravillosa interpretación y los gratos recuerdos de tiempos ya tan lejanos. Saludos desde México.

Outstanding beautiful performance by Kavakos&Pace ..

[livingisbelieving]

Oh, this is so incredibly beautiful...

[guillecastillo]

Qué maravilla, qué sonido único del violín, potenciado por la magistral interpretación del Maestro Leónidas.
Felicitaciones por esta admirable obra y mi profundo agradecimiento.

מסתיים ב5 וכן 4 במולטו נונ טרופו לאבי וחזרתו בתשובה אחרת אין טעם בלי ה5. ואז הפסקה בניקוד עם דנטליות בסוף ואז 4 לשבת. עם שחרזו. ומתאר גם את סיום המלחמה ב5 ו2 ו6 נקודות דרמטי ומלחמתי. עם שלטון 4 ביצירה. קשה ביותר לניגון.

[claudiacamozzini]

Mi piace eseguita con sonorità, di solito è troppo spenta! Bravi!

[ezioberolo]

Sorry, but I find this rendition poor, it could be much better but the microphones between the piano and the violin are not well balanced at all. The violin is only rendering notes, mechanically, with little interpretation. At times one could say that the bow is not an axe and the violin firewood, but maybe it should be?
