Richard Strauss said to him (during a Don Quixote rehearsal): Now I hear my Don Quixote. He was Furtwänglers concertmaster at the Berlin Philharmonic.

It's a real treat to see the master in a masterclass actually play and to comment so eloquently about music and life in general - fabulous !
-
This so touches my heart! How it must feel to remember this moment!!!!
-
What a incredible sound of PIatigorsky!!!!!
-
Love this. Thank you.

I like how in the end he gets so carried away by the music. The music takes over.. it is like in his biography, he is indeed a musician by heart!
-
Mr Gruber, this is gripping soulful music making. BRAVO!
-
OMG!!! Красота музыки-красота и человеческая! Красавец Пятигорский!

I'm loving the shift around 10:11, followed by the look on the student's face behind him. I'd probably make the same face with something like that, it's awesome!

This sure brings back memories. The class looks like it was held in the old “Clark House” building which was home to the Music Department at USC. I think besides those already mentioned, Doris Stevens in playing piano with Nathaniel Rosen turning pages. Dennis Brott is next to the piano and then comes Terry King. I Don’t know who is next to Terry. Jeff Solow set up the music stand. I was lucky to study in this class for a year (1970-71)! Peter Rejto

Where has this gem popped up from? How wonderful 😁

What a man! What a philosophy. And thank you Emanuel. You played and responded with the utmost professionalism. Of course I knew of Piatigorsky, having dabbled excruciatingly in cello during my youth, but he is the first meister I have seen who included the audience as co-participants in a master class.

Thanks for uploading this fantastic video Mr. Emanuel. I admire Piatigorsky so much and listening to his thoughts has been very inspiring. I can't imagine how inspiring would have been for you in your study days. Keep uploading videos of him please, and thanks again for sharing this with us. All the best !
