@fred512 I've posted a number of clips of Ricci. He is one of the true Greats!!

@fred512 I've been posting some of his videos. Unfortunately he is in his late 60's...but still amazing. Past the prime for most violinists, but Ruggiero is amazing!

@Metadragonfire You can see Leila's performance on You Tube...3 separate videos; one for each movement.

@crankycaz Leila is fast becoming my favorite violinist....especially at the age of 12, because she had impeccable technique as well as passion at such a young age. It's absolutely amazing and phenomenal.

wow and we dont have any film of Rach or Lhevinne .So young here.Wonderful.Who is the conductor?
-
All three of them - Isaac Stern, and Yehudi Menuhin, and Ruggiero Ricci - were kids in San Francisco at the same time, all of them students of Louis Persinger. It's like all of the great violinists that came out of Odessa or Vilna at the same time. Kind of makes you wonder if there wasn't something in the drinking water!

Can you show more of this video?

Yeah, check out Leila Josefowicz doing it when she was 12. It's amazing.

Heifetz' recording of the Vieuxtemps V will make your blood boil. I remember hearing it as a 14 year old and tears coming to my eyes. I knew then that I wanted to be a musician.
