Ah...the sound... I so appreciate this post. His ease and playfulness. It reminds me of the current vintage car craze, they don't make 'em like this anymore!
Thank you.

Didn't this guy play with Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys?

@monkgroupie Actually much of the Vitaphone shorts in the early years of 1926 into 1927 classic music pieces (orchestral work, solos or from opera), because they were perhaps the easiest to record and synchronize with the film. Your point about what you see in 'Singin' in the Rain' is a case point that classic music pieces would be the easiest for this then new technology -- since classic music tends to be more stationary then pop.

Elman's playing is pure luck in a sad way. Check out his interpretation of Schubert's Serenade. It's absolutely wonderful!

Great! The dignity of the music!
Once upon a time... Who cared that time of a "fastest violin player of the world"?---
(By the way: I heard Elman live in Vienna 1963 with a strange programming...)

This is what they're talking about; the Elman tone. Have you ever heard a sound like the first 45 seconds? I haven't. It's beyond belief.

I use this type of vibrato.

Wow what a find! The great Mischa Elman! A little treasure and a bit of history. What a treat to see him, hear his elegant interpretation and his breathtaking 'Elman' tone.
I never knew that one of the shorts created to showcase the talking pictures technology had Mischa Elman performing. Quite different from the 'Singing in the Rain' talking picture short...
Thanks for posting this. It's clips like this that make YouTube worth while...
