@Kochenkova I'm also very curious about that!

Maybe they could write why not ???

In the day when Heifetz played this version, it was considered virtually unplayable. Now all the little wunderkinder virtuosi play it virtually note-perfect.. But none of their performances are in the same light cone as Heifetz. I remember when I was a kid listening to his recording of this piece on 78's, of which I wore out several.From the point of view of technical glitz, expressive warmth, pacing and just general overall great playing of music of this genre, it just doesn't get any better.

i personally prefer sarasate cuz of zigeunerweisen. u gotta admit it's an awesome piece.
-
@aimson it is less recorded because Waxman's son refuses to allow people to use his father's music because he thinks he can make money out of it.

I had a friend years ago from Russia, a fine violinist. He told me one could practice for 60 years and still not be as good as Heifetz. Well, when I listen to this Waxman, I feel that I must agree with my Russian friend.

@khira07 You are correct, the original opera was composed by Bizet. Sarasate and Waxman wrote renditions for the violin. This Waxman version is considered to be more challenging and therefore less recorded. Also, the Sarasate version is often played with piano accompianament (Joshua Bell recorded one) while I've only heard Waxman with an orchestra.
