Love Perlman's playing, but he doesn't make me cry. Rabin makes me cry with this piece. It just rings me out.

Sweet and genius!

emotional content with purity.. utterly unsurpassable

At his best, Michael Rabin played with the perfection of Heifetz, but with a bigger heart. Most tragic violin loss of the 20th century along with Neveu.

@tukkomi2 I think this must be from The Magic Bow. One the greatest encore violin records ever.
-
Indeed, very very wonderful. Thank you for the uploading!

I think he plays it slightly higher (not sharp) than most performer's I have heard. It lightens the mood a little. This rendition is most definitely magical.
-
Couldn’t be better. I think he is the best violinist ever for this kind of sweet pieces.
This reminds me of his rendition from the Magic Bow that I used to listen long time ago.

My single most beloved vioin perf...astonishing in every respect.

@michaelrabinthebest -IMHO Hassid,Rabin,and Hirshorn were the three very best. Heifetz.Elman and Milstein were not very far behind if indeed they trailed at all.
listen to the recordings of hassid or kreisler doing this piece. It's a different sound from that of rabin, milstein, and vengerov. In many ways I enjoy their recordings better.

I understand what you say.. Hassid has a way of playing that transcends the nature of the violin.. he's an exception.. However I enjoy much Rabin's interpretation
