Breaking the mold..

Check out this video – He’s an amazing player, and his cadenza is SO creative. (The piece is the Mozart 3rd Violin concerto)
Perhaps we should do something like this for the Mozart horn concertos!

    “Wolfie” is either rolling in his grave or slapping his thigh enthusiastically!

    The countenance at 4:25, however, is quite telling…

    Having played in many orchestras I can’t help but wonder if his countenance isn’t ALWAYS like that… ;)

    That’s just awesome…..who says classical music has to be stuffy????

    It’s fun and creative and all that. It’s also a self-indulgent and disrespectful
    burlesque: if he has things he wants to say musically, he’s free to write his own
    “Fantasy on the Mozart Violin Concerto . . .” to show what an imaginative and
    funny fellow he is.
