Nathan Milstein plays Vitali Chaconne Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 604 seconds This is one of the most inspirational recordings I have ever heard (along with Milstein's Devil's Trill) and is one of my most favorite peices to play. It's a shame it's not played more often :( Related: chaconne, classical, milstein, music, nathan, violin, vitali |

Yehudi Menuhin plays Bach Chaconne (Part 1) Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 445 seconds Very excellent recording from around 1935. Related: bach, chaconne, classical, menuhin, music, violin, yehudi |

Joshua Bell plays Bloch Nigun Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 407 seconds 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) Related: bell, bloch, classical, joshua, music, nigun, violin |

Andres Segovia Plays Bach Chaconne (Part 1) Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 416 seconds Well, sorry for another audio clip (bastards took down some of my video clips), but this one is especially worth listening to. The great master himself playing on the guitar. Related: andres, bach, chaconne, classical, music, segovia, violin |

Sarasate Plays Sarasate Zigeunerweisen Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 335 seconds 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. Related: classical, music, sarasate, violin, zigeunerweisen |

Jascha Heifetz Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 393 seconds 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. Related: classical, heifetz, jascha, music, video, violin |

Jascha Heifetz plays Bach Chaconne (part 1) Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 395 seconds I know there is a video recording of Heifetz playing the chaconne but he is very old there. Here is an earlier recording when he was in his prime. Related: bach, chaconne, classical, heifetz, jascha, music, violin |

Ginette Neveu Plays Ravel Tzigane Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 635 seconds 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. Related: classical, ginette, music, neveu, ravel, tzigane, violin |

George Enesco plays Corelli Sonata Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 533 seconds 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 :) Related: classical, corelli, enesco, george, music, sonata, violin |

David Oistrakh plays Chausson Poeme (part 1) Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 531 seconds 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). Related: chausson, classical, david, music, oistrakh, poeme, violin |

Isaac Stern plays Ravel's Tzigane Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 536 seconds 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. Related: classical, isaac, music, ravel, stern, tzigane, violin |

Franco Gulli plays Paganini-I Palpiti Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 600 seconds Franco Gulli is one of the most famous violin teachers in the country and studied under Joseph Gingold. It's a shame Gulli never cared about a solo career because his playing is absolutely top notch. Related: classical, franco, gulli, incredible, music, paganini, palpiti, violin |

Heifetz Plays Mozart conc. #5 (2nd mov.) Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 646 seconds 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. Related: beautiful, classical, concerto, heifetz, mozart, violin |

Nathan Milstein Plays Bach Partita #3, Part 1 Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 656 seconds 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. Related: bach, classical, milstein, nathan, partita, violin |

Joseph Joachim plays Brahms Hungarian Dance #1 Posted by: aimson
Video duration: 205 seconds For those of you who have not heard of Joseph Joachim, he was one of the most famous and influential violinists in the 19th century. He is also considered to be the first violinist to have recorded (1903). Related: brahms, classical, dance, hungarian, joachim, music, violin |
