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?

  • i wonder how new yorkers reacted when kreisler admitted that this piece was his own and not a newly discovered dvorak! kreisler must have been so flabbergasted when his work was entusiastically welcomed as dvorak's!

  • @lonsi64 I'm sure it's not the first time the classical community has gotten punked. Kreisler was brilliant and had every right to lie and misrepresent Dvorak. Another example that comes to mind is the "Vitali" Chaconne. I love this piece and play it from time to time. Milstein's recording of it is of the Gods. Yet, nobody named Vitali wrote the piece! Jokes on all of us, isn't it?

  • Fritz Kriesler was my great-great-grandfathers best friend. My great-grandma knew him very well and he would play for her all the time when he was little. He would come to their home and play with her stepdad. I have a home video of him playing with her stepfather in their home. I only now this because shes 102 now and tells me all the time. And yes, I am being serious--not lying here for those who think I am.

  • @lonsi64 Dvorak was flabbergasted too!

  • I love the way he gives this song a soul. Sometimes musicians play very "flat" but this feels very warm. Really inspiring.

  • I before e except after c.....
