I recorded the Bruch Violin Concerto as a tribute to Heifetz's warm violin sound of the 40's-50's. The orchestra helps to create the vintage feel. Available on itunes and from my album http://cdbaby.com/cd/fontanella.

  • Asked my parents for violin lessons :) you are a very big inspiration Ann.

  • @SexySofiaAnn1 , Good for you!! Feel free to keep in touch! :)

  • Ann - Your playing is so beautiful, it brings tears to my eyes. Your violin sound is ethereal, moody, otherworldly, and reminds me of the sound on the old 78 records I used to listen to growing up in the 1950s. Thank God you are there, because your commitment to true violin playing inspires me to believe there is hope for our world in our youth once again. Any CD you release, I will buy. Sincerely, Dowsade.

  • @bluenetmarketing , thank you so much for the heartfelt comment. I am really touched and hope that you continue to enjoy my work....

  • It sounds beautiful. So are you -- it's either Hilary or you, Ann. Oh well, out of my league. lol. :)

  • @chessviolinist , Thank you so much!!

  • I'm glad you recorded this work Ann, it's much too neglected and such a beauty--you did a lovely job and I have enjoyed listening to it! Thanks for sharing it with us!

  • It's rare to read the word "warm" in conjunction with Heifetz's playing, but as far as tonal qualities are concerned Heifetz was warmer than warm; he was red hot. I have read a lot of critical remarks about his playing, but I have yet to hear anyone equal him on any level. I'm not familiar with this 2nd Bruch except from an old LP I have with Accardo.Your playing bears similarities of Heifetz and is unique. Your intelligence and playing is both striking and impressive.
