  • This is the way I remember music played as a child. Why no one plays like this today is a mystery.

    I like some younger artists but they don't touch the heart like this.

  • Heavenly music played at the highest level of love, reverence and joy. Truly moving and profoundly touching.

  • Wow!  The boy at left side is Menuhin?

  • @billbell7744

    You know what? It's very simple.

    NO ONE CAN PLAY MUSIC AT THIS HIGHEST LEVEL ANYMORE...

  • @ imusiciki Thanks for the upload of this rare and delightful interpretation of the the BWV 1043. Menuhin the disciple plays the first violin part and Enescu the master the second violin part; it's heaven...

  • Only old Yehudi can produce sound like that. I can tell instantly when he comes on. Not to discount the great George Enescu

  • During the Cold War I was a travel rep. Carpati (Romanian Tourist Office) gave me a gift of Enescu on record. Arriving London Airport it was confiscated because of the name Enescu. This was because the Customs Officer said his wife was fond of Enescu. I got my record back 3 days later on the way back to Romania. HA! HA!

  • This Student & Teacher duo playing together with one mind, with the disciple's spirit one with the heart of his mentor & that of the composer, produced one of the most deeply heart warming renditions of this sublime music.

  • Here I am proud to say I am romanian. Enescu, performing together with Menuhin goes to my heart.

  • I LOVE THIS SOOOOOO MUCH. THANK YOU!!!! I hope to play this on the big stage soon!!!! JERSEY here I come!!!!

  • I listened to this again as am suffering from melancholia. This music really has the power to restore one's faith in humanity and in God.
