Jascha Heifetz was one of the greatest, if not the greatest violinist of the 20th century. On this recording, the plays Tchaikovsky’s violin concertos with such a degree of intimacy and enthusiasm as perhaps only he could. Yet Tchaikovsky’s work was initially considered unplayable, devastating the Russian composer. Leopold Auer, of all people, one of the great virtuosos and later Heifetz’s teacher, refused to give the first performance of the concertos. It was not until three years after this refusal that Adolf Brodsky took up the composition and Auer revised his opinion.
We recommend the use of „L’Art du Son” LP cleaner to wet wash your vinyl. Even new records of high quality production will benefit from this.
