Brilliant performance of Maxim Fedotov with the Russian Symphonic at Gewandhaus

Violinist Maxim Fedotov was radiated with virtuosity. Perhaps, Paganini played in this way, or might wish to be in his place. Fedotov observed the development of the music theme in one way not depending the special tempo features of separate movements (both quick or cantilena folklore fragments), sometimes the sounds flow with heavy strokes from the violin, and his left hand, sticking with vibrato, was as if shaking them off, driving into a sentimental languish.
