Please get well soon. You will be sorely missed if you stay away too long.
You make beautiful music.

Gerhard A. Fuerst23/07/2010
Janine, You are an incredibly talented and gifted violinist, and fabulously beautiful. What a great combination. What a blessing!
I wish you well in your recovery and hope to hear you in concert whenever or wherever possible. All the best to you. I am on my way to look for your recordings.
Greetings from a new fan!

Michael Divino22/07/2010
Janine! Please feel better soon! I must say I truly truly love your Britten and Beethoven recording. So much fiery passion!

Stewart Small20/07/2010
Just saw a video of a recent performance. You are an amazing talent. Please get well soon and I hope to see more of you in the future. God bless you!

Ms Jansen, Watching you play the Meditation from the opera Thais from a 2006 Walbuhne performance shown on Classic Art Showcase made me do a double-take. I didn't realize what I was witnessing until I paid closer attention. Watching you give everything without reservation or pretence captivated my attention. I had to backup TIVO and re-play it over and over. You are a new discovery for me. I haven't seen such artistry in a very long time. You and Agnes Baltsa are 2 gems in the classical world that stand out from your peers so dramatically that I know God has beauty in the world amongst all that is negative and life is better. You are everything a concert Violinist aught to be. I want to say thanks to you and God for your talent and human spirit that eminates from you in your playing. I look forward to the next time you tour Los Angeles. The very best to you. Highest regards. Dean... (a new fan transformed)

Mercedes Granados19/07/2010
I'm a violinist. I'm a fan of Janine Jansen. I wish his speedy recovery, and will be in her Brahms' violin concert, in my city, Madrid (Spain), next 14th October. With my best wishes ... Mercedes

Janine! I wish you will get well soon!
See you in japan on November.
I'm looking forward to listen your fantastic sound and meet your pretty smile.

Just read your post

Your music heals our souls, may our best wishes and admiration heal you.

Grace Clifford13/07/2010
Dear Janine,
I think that the way you play is just beautiful and fresh, and it really inspires me. I have a serious violin teacher now and am working hard. Some days I feel as though I can do anything on my violin, but some days everything seems impossible and my technique is just not good enough. Did you ever feel the same way? How much did you practice when you were eleven years old?
I am thinking of you and hope you get better soon..
Grace

Janine,

Get well soon! Maar doe het rustig aan, neem de tijd.

Hartelijke groeten, Corrien

Blaise Scavullo12/07/2010
I heard you for the first time yesterday on KDFC-FM (San Francisco) while driving. It was Beethoven's Violin Concerto in D. I only caught the last part but your playing immediately caught my attention. I was captivated by your vibrance, lightness, clarity and accuracy. I said to myself, "I need to hear more from this person." Then your name was announced, as well as the message regarding your doctor's advice. I pray for your health and the fulfillment of your most cherished dreams.

Irene Hartzell11/07/2010
We missed your playing here in Seattle, and are sad to learn you won't play again for several months.
We hope the health problems pass quickly so that you'll be able to share your wonderful musical gift with audiences soon again.
Best wishes.

eres muy buena y seguire viendo tu interpretacion futura. Mis mejores deseos para ti siempre.

Hi, Janine...
I live in the San Francisco area; and early this morning (July 5) I heard you play the Saint-Saens Intro/Rondo Capricioso on our Music channel. I want you to know how delighted I was with your outstanding, musical, lyrical, and passionate interpretation!

You have won me now as a committed, interested listener. I hope that you will come to San Francisco soon so I can have the pleasure of hearing a live performance, and perhaps having an intervew with you for my readers...

For more on classical music, please explore my Blog at:

With best regrads and my admiration... Hank

Lewis Goldman05/07/2010
I heard your name for the first time and heard you play for the first time on cable TV which carries the recorded visual and aural recordings of classical artists via satellite. It was a film of you playing in Berlin or at least with the Berlin Symphony Orchestra..

I am not a musician but I am a music lover and I thought your playing was beautiful and you are beautiful, too.

I am a 71 year old lawyer living in the Washington, D.C. suburbs.

Dear Janine,
I hope that you still remember us from Koblenz and the Master class with Phillip Hirschhorn. (We had also sent you the photographs). We are glad that you are having so much success in your musical career. When I wanted to look up your next concerts in the internet I found your message.
We wish you all the best and hope that you'll recover soon so that we can come to a concert to hear you "live" after all this time.

Jan-Peter Scheffer30/06/2010
Lieve Janine,

Ik denk dat je al wat jaren te lang en te hard hebt gewerkt, en dat je het, zoals de dokter zei, inderdaad echt even rustig aan moet doen. En dat is helemaal niet erg, want daarna kom je dus gewoon weer geheel verfrist en bruisend terug in het publieke gebeuren. Nou ja, gewoon... ongewoon leuk en "abnormaal" goed.

Nou meid, even kalm aan, hè! Neem de tijd voor je herstel, want we willen je graag in één stuk terug en dat je nog heel veel stukken speelt, tot je negenennegentigste of zo.

Groeten en liefs.
Jan-Peter Scheffer,
dichter en muziekliefhebber

Harry Sihan30/06/2010
Beste Janine,

Beterschap! Ik kijk uit naar je optreden als je weer helemaal hersteld bent. Muziek is je leven, maar laat de eerste het laatste niet opeten.

Hi Janine!

First off, I would like to wish you well, seeing as you are not well! SEcond of all, I would just like to say how much you inspire me! You're the reason I decided to start laying the violin. Even though I started pretty late (I started when I was 15, and I'm 16 now) I a;ways strive to be like you, performing and playing such passion and musicality!!!! I hope you get well soon, so you can grace the world with you'r wonderful music! And I sort of want to hear your rendition of the Mendelssohn D minor concerto!

Hajnalka Salló30/06/2010
Janine, jij bent DÉ best! Onze dochter van 4 jaar luistert altijd naar jouw muziek en wilt ook op viool spelen - we huilen samen wanneer jij speelt - mooiere muziek kunnen de engelen ook niet maken - zo vol met liefde en ziel kan alleen jij op viool spelen!!!
Beterschap en de allerallerallerbeste wensen van Árnika, Hajni en Laci uit Hongarije

Tu sei immensa, tu sei il violino che ogni violinista ha sognato di suonare.
Tu sei la perla, tu sei la forza, tu sei la grazia della potenza che bacia la tecnica. Tu sei il mistero dell'arte.

Hello Janine..
I love how you play the violin.. u are really great!

i want make u a question..
u think that a person of 21 years old can learn to play violin?

u are gorgeous!
Good luck!

Jos Joosten27/06/2010
Lieve Janine,
Als ik ziek ben of me niet lekker voel, luister ik erg vaak naar jouw muziek, jouw opnames, waardoor ik echt zoveel sneller opknap :-). Ik hoop dat dit berichtje je ook wat beterschap geeft en je daardoor weer zelf snel helemaal OK bent. Neem tijd voor jezelf, en voel je snel beter.
Groets, Jos

test24/06/2010
it's just music.
And you interpret it so well... Preformers like you are indeed rare. They don't come around that often...
Get well soon, I still haven't seen you preform live and one should see the great performers of one's lifetime :)

Nina Sarah24/06/2010
I have been watching a series of your performances on Youtube.
You have inspired me greatly; I could not find the words to sufficiently express my feelings while listening to your playing. Your rendition of Vaughan's "The Lark Ascending" is truly beyond marvelous. I would like to thank you for adding so much color to my music life. Although it's rather sad that I could not continue with my violin undertaking due to personal circumstances, I do find absolute comfort and completeness through your music.

I felt rather disconsolate with the news about your health. I do hope for your fast recovery.

I'll try searching for your CD's at the local music shop. Hopefully they have even at least one of your albums in stock.

More power to you!



Cynthia24/06/2010
Beste Janine,
Het spijt me te lezen dat jouw gezondheid niet goed is en ik wens je veel sterkte en een spoedig herstel toe.
Als beginnend schrijfster/dichter zoek ik inspiratie in muziek en de natuur. Afgereisd naar de VS om mij door het hooggebergte te laten overweldigen luister ik naar jouw uitvoering van Tchaikovsky die dezelfde emoties bij mij losmaakt en die wonderwel in deze omgeving past van klaterende watervallen en tere bloemen. Dank dat je anderen deelgenoot maakt van jouw gave.
Met warme groet, Cynthia

Erik23/06/2010
Janine,

You won't remember me, but at the end of last year I was in Europe for business and, having seen you perform many times in New York, decided to stop by Utrecht before returning to the United States to attend your festival. I ran into you briefly during breakfast at the Grand Karel on the first morning (sorry to bother you during that, by the way) and we also spoke very briefly at the conclusion of the festival. The festival was such a hauntingly beautiful experience - following the lanterns around Utrecht during the Kerkenmarathon, the river towards the Vredenburg Leeuwenbergh, then always spiraling my way around the tunnels of the Grand Karel trying to find my way back to my room (thank God for that interactive map in the lobby). Congratulations for it and thank you.

I was very sorry to see your message on the 20th and I wish you all the best in your recovery. I will keep an eye out for the next time you venture across the Atlantic to perform in New York, and in the meantime I hope you take some time to relax in the Grand Karel and that you have more luck finding your way around it than I did. Hartelijke groeten.

Gunnar Haugo22/06/2010
I just watched MEDITATION FROM THAÏS live on you tube and can barely talk.I am a violin player and that is the greatest ,most touching piece of music I have heard in all my years.It's difficult to write this with all the tears in my eye's and the words escape me. Thank you Janine for touching my soul where few in my life have. Gunnar

Teruo Yoshimura21/06/2010
Dear Janine,
I am very sorry to hear that your health condition has not been well.
I am planning to come to your conserts in Vienna in October or in Tokyo in November. I wish you will be able to be back by then, if possible, just as you mentioned in your message.
By the way, please take your time. All of your fans would not mind waiting for the worldwide talented violinist's recovering, because almost no one will substitute you.
Take the best care.
Teruo

I was sad to hear that you were sick and had to cancel your concert in Barcelona... I have been trying to see you live for a long time! I hope you are better now.... when will you do a US tour?

Wera Hauschild16/06/2010
Hello Ms. Jansen,
I hope you´ll get well soon as I read that you are ill today and will not play in the Philharmonie in Essen. I´m very sorry to hear that because I was looking forward to hear something live from you.
Will you repeat the concert in Essen?
Best wishes

Paulus15/06/2010
Beste Janine,

Jammer dat je gezondheid het niet toelaat om morgen in Essen te spelen. Graag hadden we je daar (voor ons eerst) op zien treden.
We wensen je van harte een spoedig herstel toe.
Hartelijke groeten,
Paulus en Carmen

Nicole Verhaegen14/06/2010
Beste Janine,
Ik wil je van harte beterschap wensen en hoop dat je weer snel op het podium mag staan.
Volgens mij mogen mijn man en jij elkaar maar niet ontmoeten.... afgelopen december in Vredenburg Utrecht was hij ziek en ben ik alleen gegaan.... Zo onder de indruk heb ik direct kaarten geboekt voor Dusseldorf afgelopen zaterdag....... wat een teleurstelling: jij was ziek ! We hebben even zo goed genoten van deze avond, chapeau voor Thomas Zehetmair.
Ik geef de moed niet op, mijn man gaat jou een keer horen spelen (en ik erbij !!!)
Nogmaals veel beterschap,
hartelijke groeten,

Nicole

Luis12/06/2010
Dear Janine,

I don't know how to express what a feel when I listen to you..

It's difficult to say even for a musician..

Lately I don't listen to music, I listen to people.. and when it's possible to have two people at the same time it's incredible..

Listen to the composer through the performer..

At that moment I can feel that I'm somehow knowing both..

and some times I like the composer, but everytime I listen to you.. I always think the same: this person has to be very very special, she seems to have that endless energy, that inside richness.. I would love to be his friend!

It's so big what you offer everytime.. and it's so clear what you want to say from the music.. that I just can admire you, thank you, and learn..

Actually when I reach this sort of "moment of truth" with my brother (we play piano duo) during a performance, we call it "to do a Janine" Hey man!! You did a Janine!!! ;)

Really, thank you so much.. I hope one day I will meet you, and who knows, maybe I could even share the music on stage with you..


It's so difficult to try to say these stupid things in english!!!

Luis

janine Fransen12/06/2010
hoi Janine,

Ik zag laatst een clip van Sting van zijn nummer Brand new day. Ik wil hem een schilderij geven maar ja ik heb helaas geen adres. Op zijn website zie ik geen mogelijkheid voor contact. Nu zag ik ooit op tv dat jij hem ontmoet hebt... :-) Rare vraag misschien maar heb jij misschien enig idee hoe ik mijn presentje bij hem kan krijgen?
Ik zou het heeeeel fijn vinden (echt heel fijn) als je me daar mee zou kunnen helpen.

Veel geluk
Janine Fransen

Jamila White11/06/2010
Janine, are you okay? I noticed you cancelled all of your performances in June! I hope and pray that you get well very soon.

Dear Janine,
Thank you. Your music is so powerful that I find myself in another world when I listen. You have completely changed my life and how I view music. At 15 years old, you have provided so much inspiration for me. Thank you for dedicating your soul to your music for others to indulge.

Ben Hong06/06/2010
Hi Janine,

Thanks for your message of greeting from Julian, he really played incredibly with us.

It was memorable playing with you in 2008(2 years ago?!), I look forward to hearing you or playing with you soon! perhaps even with our mutual friend JP!

Take care and smile!

Tenerife, 4 juni 2010
Lieve Janine, we zijn zoooo teleurgesteld dat we vanavond tot de ontdekking kwamen dat je er niet was. We wonen deels in Nederland en deels hier in Tenerife en waren speciaal teruggekomen om je te "zien/horen" met het vioolconcert van Bruch, absoluut onzer beiden favoriet vioolconcert, vooral jouw versie!! Héél erg jammer.
We hopen gauw weer een concert van je te mogen meemaken, whenever where ever.
Liefs,
Eveline en Hans Goes

Maria04/06/2010
Dear Janine, please come to Poland, I can't wait to hear you live on stage. By the way, I love your new recording and hope to listen to your Shostakovich's concertos someday. It's great that you love chamber music so much- I just saw that you're going to play Brahms's B major sextet. that's one of my favorite pieces ever, especially the second movement!
All the best for you, whenever I listen to your energetic playing I wish I could play at least one note like you. hugs from Krakow,Maria

Pia Smedinga02/06/2010
Dag Janine,
Onze dochter Marenthe (9) heeft meegedaan aan het concert in het concertgebouw. Net als iedereen was ook bij haar de teleursteling groot dat je ziek was. Ik hoop dat je intussen weer bent opgeknapt. We vinden het geweldig dat je het concert alsnog gaat organiseren. Ze zou stoppen met vioolspelen maar gaat door omdat ze jou wil ontmoeten en het wel heel leuk is
de stukjes beginnen te klinken. Irene de Boer, haar docent zei dat ze vooruit was geschoten. Al met al een geweldige ervaring dus.
Hartelijke groeten, familie Smedinga uit Dronrijp,

Dan Tenorio01/06/2010
Janine,
First of all, I'd like to say that you are such an amazing violinist. I am 16 years old and play the viola. I had the privilege of playing the Tchaikovsky Concerto with my local philharmonic, but when I heard your interpretation of it, I was truly moved. I just wanted to say how much I look up to you and complement your skill and talent.
Sincerely,
Dan

Ildar Agluckow01/06/2010
Dear Janine.
You are the best violinist in women. You are a standard violin playing. How I rejoiced in every sound of your Mendelssohn. I saw streaks alive, when you hear it out.
Janine. I want to create a Suite for Violin, and I was glad to have your help. Many young musicians can go on your way. You are the idol of millions of boys and girls.
What I would like to ask you ... I would like to rent a small interview with you (items 5 - 6 to 10 minutes each, every three to four months). If you wish to Bodo, we can make it a tradition.
Thank you for your music. Thank you for your parents that you have. Thanks to all who helped, as they helped a great genius.
With love and respect your Ildar Aglyukov

Gute Nacht!Ich heisse Ariadna und cih studiere Geige in Bercelona. Ich bin fast verliebt in Janine Jansen, ich liebe absolut alles sie spielt... Diese gorsses Energie, Talent und Lust, hat mit viel geholfen und daran habe ich auch viel gedacht. Morgen habe ich meine ¨Prüfung von Violine und wirklich werde ich sie vorstellen bevor ich spiele. Ich konnte nicht horen ihres Konzert gestern in Barcelona, schade dass Janine nicht gesund war, aber ich hoffe Ihr bald horen. Biel spass und viel mehr Glück! Es wäre so wunderbar wenn ich sie kennen lernen konnte, und auch wenn ich eine klasse von ihr bekommen konnte auch! Wie viele Träume! Bis bald und danke schön

Beste Janine.
Ik heb een grootste bewondering voor je muziek.
Je bent 1 van de beste ambassadeurs van ons
kleine landje over de hele wereld.
Ik hou ook van Celtische muziek.
Maar ik wil je mening horen over een collega van je.
Het gaat om Mairead Nesbit.
Het gaat me niet om een oordeel,echt niet.maar kan je het begrijpen dit ik roerend word van je,maar ook van Mairead?
Kan je me uitleggen dat er twee verschillende muziekstromingen je zo kunnen raken?
Is dat de kracht van de viool?
Graag hoor ik van je daarover.

Groetjes Ed Kerkmans een fan.

wim veldhuisen & siska ijlst25/05/2010
Beste Janine,

Vanavond wilden we genieten van jouw concert in Valencia, de kaartjes hadden we al in ons bezit. Helaas hoorden we bij het Palau de la Musica dat het concert geen doorgang vond. De reden is ons niet bekend, maar het had een mooi slot kunnen zijn van onze korte vakantie hier. We hopen dat het niets ernstig is en verheugen ons dan maar op een concert in Nederland.

Groeten,

Twee fans

martijn peters24/05/2010
hi janine,

ik hoop dat je snel beter bent. Je hebt wat gemist vanmiddag, het was geweldig! behalve dat het mooi was om ons zoontje in het concertgebouw te zien optreden, was aleksey igudesman ontzettend goed, wat is die man grappig. omdat ik me nogal lui totaal niet had voorbereid, waren was ik erg verrast door het programma. ik had een veel "gewoner" klassiek concert verwacht. we hebben in elk geval volop genoten.

zojuist heb ik me tranen met tuiten gelachen bij the wonderful world of the balalaika (heb je lang moeten oefenen voor je kunststukje?)

ik begreep dat jij helemaal de vrije keuze had voor vanmiddag en er voor hebt gekozen om velen van ons met hem kennis te laten maken. vandaar dit mailtje: bedankt, het was erg
inspirerend, ook namens Sascha (zoontje) en Nick (mijn dame).

hartelijke groet,
Martijn Peters

Armin Dilchert24/05/2010
Hello,
i was last friday at the Alte Oper in Frankfurt/Main, Germany, and i wanna say that the performance of Brittens Violin-Concerto was amazing and wonderful. It`s a very emotional music and full of expression. This was a great perfomance and after the concert i bought the new CD with the Violin-Concertos of Beethoven and Britten.
All the best and greetings from germany.
Kind regards
Armin

Bjarke Nielsen23/05/2010
Dear Janine,

I have a good friend here in China, near Hong Kong, where I stay, who plays the guitar so well and speaks of his guiar like a work of art. He told me of you and I came to discover this velvet touch of your bow on an ancient Stradivar...Thank you for your poetry in my ears...
I am a music lover, but I play the vocal chords under the shower...violinists, don't get that pleasure...humour aside...I also design furniture and have made a violin hair...would you like to see it? You can send me a message

Great that you are there!!!

Kind Regards

Hervé BOURVEN21/05/2010
Dear Janine,
I'm in love with your violin !
He is so beautiful and charming that I can't stop listening it.
Your are very precious to me and you express so much through music that tears are always coming on my eyes.
Please carry on to give us your art and it is a lovely gift.
I play music (jazz) and my ears are very open to classical pieces.

Lars Nilsson15/05/2010
Hi Janine,
listened recently to your live recording with Berlin Philharmonics of "Meditations from Thais". Truly great performance. Your way of expressing this piece of music by Massenet is in my opinion, outstanding. You also handle your Stradivari violin with sensitivity and utmost perfection. This together, with you as a person, gives the listener a rare moment of true beauty.

Lars Nilsson/57/ musician from Sweden.

Graag zou ik willen wijzen op mogelijkheid laatste deel van mijn recente vioolconcert te beluisteren. Dat kan sinds vandaag op youtube onder 'sfbaekers'.

Voor bijzondere interpretaties van u (die mij inspireerden) heb ik grootste bewondering.

Dank en veel succes toegewenst voor de toekomst.

I am listening to Vivaldi The four Seasons for a 3rd time. I just can't get enough. Amazing music. Keep up the fun.

Hoi Janine,

Zo langzaam aan ben ik dankzij mijn omgeving de klassieke muziek in getrokken en sinds jouw optreden bij de Vagebunderhutte (val di Fassa)helemaal om!

Heb dan ook genoten van het concert vorige week maandag in het Concertgebouw! Dankjewel,
Kees

I happened to listen to your music by FM.
Your passion for music, deep love for life made
me filled with quiet joy after my mother's death.
Thank you.

Fabulous! In your hands, the violin sounds different, as if the music comes from all over, from inside us. Thank you for existing!

I Ik kijk vooruit naar morgenavond 28 April voor het concert in de Philharmonia in Vilnius.
Ik woon nu al weer enkele jaren in Vilnius (Litouwen).
Altijd bijzonder als er Nederlandse musici hier in Litouwen hun talenten tonen.

Just want to say your playing is beautiful. Maybe someday I will see you play live. Keep up the wonderful playing even on record you brighten my days.

Süße Janine,
Deine neue CD ist wunderschön, besonders natürlich das Violin-Konzert von Britten. Es ist so mutig und leidenschaftlich. Da kann man wirklich wegfliegen. Außerdem hat mich das Tschaikowsky-Konzert live mit Christoph Poppen vom 23.09.07 besonders beeindruckt. Das finde ich sogar noch schöner als die CD-Studiofassung!
Ich wünsche dir auch in Zukunft den Mut, die schweren Stücke so wild und ausdrucksstark zu spielen.

Marc

Janine,

ik zag je per toeval tijdens je video opnamen in Hhet Zochersplantsoen in Utrecht dinsdag 20 april 2010. Had je zoveel willen zeggen maar mijn foto's spreken voor zichzelf. Naast de website van het kaartje, staan de nieuwste foto's op:

Mocht bijzondere foto's van Utrecht willen hebben, zal ik je die met alle plezier toesturen, zodat je ook in het buitenland een stukje Utrecht met je mee kunt dragen.

Almost fifty 15 year old students from my high school and I were delighted listening to your Bach and Vivaldi performances last friday afternoon at school. Not a rumour was heard just relaxation and joy. Truly you can play magic if you are able to get this. Congratulations, we love you.

El sentimiento aflora de cada una de las notas que interpretas como flores rojas que desprende la brisa primaveral de tus bellísimas manos!

Hi Janine!

I saw your concert at carnegie hall last month and I was truly inspired. You have such a beautiful upper register and you sing through your violin. So few people in the world can do that. I am currently working on recording Vivaldi's Summer concerto and I use your recording as inspiration and help with technique. You are so wonderful. Please come back to New York! I would be so happy if I got to see you and your beautiful violin in concert again. You're gorgeous and may your life always be filled with wonderful people who love you.

<3 Aybike


P.S. I wrote on this like seven months ago, and I said that you are better than Josh Bell, I just wanted to repeat it here again because you truly are and always will. You don't receive half the amount of attention and honor you deserve.
