Beautiful, very delicately and romantically played by my favorite.

classical violin music Jascha Heifetz Saint-Saens Havanaise

Rare footage of Heifetz at the height of his career. This is the introduction to the "Heifetz & Piatigorsky" DVD produced by KULTUR. Most of the Heifetz footage from that DVD (Paganini Caprice, Wieniawski, etc.) have already been posted so this is for those who are really interested in learning more about this great violinist.

This is Fritz Kreisler playing his own peice Liebeslied (sorry I don't have a video). I am in love with Kreisler's sound. His playing is so romantic, elegant, and beautiful that he must be regarded as one of the great violinists of all time. Plus, who can argue with a violinist who wrote the damn peice in the first place?

This is the second movement from Chopin's Cello Sonata off of the "Heifetz & Piatigorsky" DVD produced by KULTURE.

Milstein has been a favorite violinist of mine since I can remember. His recording of the Bach Chaconne is one of the greatest masterpeices I have ever heard. This recording has not been heard that much I think so enjoy!

classical violin music Nathan Milstein Massenet Meditation

Another incredible recording from one of my favorite violinists. He is one of the few musicians that can draw me into the music at such a deep emotional level. He is truly inspirational to me.

Enesco is perhaps the most underrated violinist in all of history (probably because he was more famous as a teacher). When my teacher first heard this recording he became obssessed and made every one of his students listen to Enesco 5 times a day. Good advice :)

I really like Bell's old recordings, particularly this gem. I don't know the exact point in which he started to stink but this recording is definitely before then! Again, no video here, which is actually nice since Bell is hideous to watch (I know this from experience)

Pablo Casals, the great cellist, playing Bach. An incredible recording that deserves to be heard many many times. Too bad I don't have video.

Out of the hundreds and thousands of different classical recordings I have heard in my lifetime, I can safely say this is one of my favorites. Heifetz is the greatest violinist the world has ever known and this is one of his best recordings (if you don't believe me, just listen to variation #4). Part 1: First Movement

For those of you who don't know who Ginette Neveu was, she was the 16 year old who beat out David Oistrakh to win the Wieniawski Competition in 1935. Oistrakh was 27 years old at the time.

This is the very same video that aimson uploaded, but with a Notch filter applied at frequency 8000. It sounds much better now! Sorry about the picture being really small and all, don't know what happened - but since it's only a picture anyway, enjoy the audio! With this filter applied, you can really appreciate how well he plays, and how good his violin sounds!

Stern is not one of my favorite violinists (lacks imagination often times). However, this is definitely one of my favorite recordings of the Tzigane (Stern also has a great Lalo too). Full of life and passion, just what I love hearing from a violinist.

Introduction, Theme and Variations by Schubert-Piatigorsky. I'm guessing that it was arranged by Gregor.

Second clip of Ysaye, this time playing Vieuxtemps. Recording around 1912. All I can say is "wow."

Here is a second recording of Joachim (1903). Sorry, the quality is slightly worse than the last clip I posted.

classical violin music Joachim Bach Sonata

Rare audio clip of the great Pablo Sarasate performing his piece Zigeunerweisen. Keep in mind that this was recorded around 1904, so the quality isn't perfect. Also, the slow movement was left out, probably due to time constraints.

A wonderful cellist who often worked with Heifetz. Here, he appears on the bonus features of the Bell Telephone Hour DVD playing Saint-Saens.

Another clip from the Bell Telephone Hour bonus feature. Patiagorsky plays Faure.

Couldn't have done it in the first place without aimson. Thanks for uploading Zapateado in the first place! I've applied a Hum 60 filter alongside a Notch filter at 4000Hz, which makes a big improvement I think; not as good as the filtered Zigeunerweisen, but then this recording wasn't so clean in the first place, so we can't help it - I've done my best and I hope you enjoy it!

Somebody requested to hear Milstein playing the third partita so I thought I would post it. This contains the first 3 movements. Sorry, no video again.

Only uploading this because it was requested a couple times. Quite a nice recording I think. Special thanks to gawgul for sending me this recording (hope it's okay with him).

Francescatti is not one of my favorite violinists but I truly enjoy listening to his playing. He has such a sweet and beautiful tone and is simply wonderful to listen to. I especially love this recording of the Chopin Nocturne even though there is a lot of static.

These would be the Bourees #1 & #2 from the C-Major Suite by Bach. Off of the "Heifetz & Piatigorsky" DVD produced by KULTUR.

This is the reason why Heifetz is my favorite violinist and why I don't listen to anybody who doesn't appreciate his incredible beauty and musicianship. As soon as his fingers hit the board I start tearing up. Nobody will ever be able to take that experience away from me.

Franco Gulli is one of the most famous violin teachers in the country. My teacher studied under both him and Joseph Gingold. It's a shame Gulli never cared about a solo career because his playing is absolutely top notch.

This is Joseph Gingold, perhaps you may have heard of him? He was my violin teacher's teacher and from what I hear, a wonderful man in general. I'm not sure if many people have actually heard him play so here you go :)

Sergiu Luca is credited as being the first modern violinist to play Bach on a "period instrument." In other words, this was perhaps the first "baroque" rendition of the chaconne (1977 recording), which some of you may like. I, personally, cannot stand to listen to "baroque" violinists, including Luca.

I wouldn't post this if it weren't worth listening to again and again. What an awesome display of technical genius and virtuosity! Let me know what you think - I have half a dozen other recordings of this cadenza. By the way, Salvatore Accardo was the first violinist in history to record all 6 Paganini Violin Concertos in 1974. He made quite the buzz back then, according to my dad, but I'm sure nobody's heard of him today. Buy the CD and you won't be disappointed.

Sakellariou is a phenomenal classical guitarist. He was actually my dad's teacher at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music about 30 years ago. He has absolutely exquisite tone and was as obsessed with his tone as any other musician I can think of (ie, Mischa Elman). Sorry I don't have any video of him playing.
