*twitch* Oh, Mr. Heifetz, you are cruel.

@fidicen73 I see. This (:P) means that I was kidding. Nevertheless, thanks 4 your reply :)

@Adorado31 They weren't actors. They were advanced students at a Heifetz violin workshop (which is on YT). Their laughter must have been a natural reaction to the very tough workshop and criticism they'd all just been through. Heifetz's spoof audition wasn't just for fun, there was a serious teaching purpose behind it. Remember that those students would soon be auditioning for top orchestral jobs, and perhaps one day would be teaching and even judging auditions themselves.

@annefrankisaho Hhhmmm... I can't find them. I can only see unnecessary gestures and bows.
Thanks for informing me however. :)

Lots of wrong notes and silly over-the-top excursions into harmonics that have nothing to do with the piano accompaniment. Still, it sounds good in a bad way.



LOL... i bet he had to practice to play so bad :D

So....Heifetz had a sense of humour. One of the greatest practical jokes high grade students can encounter from Heifetz. We finally see Heifetz smiling and taking effort to entertain his students. This shows that Heifetz wasnt such a completely controlled person; he also was a human being with human feelings. And....Heifetz enjoyed playing like this as well. Its a revelation. Great!!!
