  • 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

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

  • amazing. i heard about him, but never imagined that he would be this good.

  • No piękna muzyka , geniusz......

  • 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.
