I will ask my wife for Auer stories from Zetlin.

I wish the quality were better, but fantastic piece nevertheless.

@An0niempje I just don't know when to shut up. I can't imagine Heifetz fetishists ever changing, too well brainwashed. Heifetz is on a much, much higher level than Ding Dong (Joshua Bell) Nauseating Salerno-Sonnenbitch, or Yo Ma-MA, so I give them credit for some real taste. Oh no, now I've offended another large segment of music lovers. I have played with all the above so the descriptions (borrowed) are not for strictly musical reasons.

@NRob84 (1 year ago) Shin'ichi Suzuki did his formal violin training in Germany under a famous violin teacher and performer Karl Klingler, himself a pupil of Joachim. Auer also had his most significant violin teaching from Joachim.

If you research 'who-taught-who' in the violin world you can trace the line from Joachim back to Corelli in the 17th century. My teacher was taught by Suzuki himself in Japan - there is a lot of interconnectivity in music across the continents and the centuries.

@2ndviolinist I also dislike the people that declare any artist a god or something, but that doesn't stop me from giving them the respect they deserve. And if your posts where only exaggeration and not your actual opinion, what do you really think and why do you think your posts help calming down Heifetz worshiping retards?

[2ndviolinist]

@An0niempje Maybe to offset the multitudes of rabid Heifetz fans. You have no penchant for hyperbole, do you?

[An0niempje]

@2ndviolinist Why do I see you in EVERY video related to the violin talking about how bad Heifetz is? Even if nobody mentioned him (yet).

I don't mind people disagreeing with me, everyone has the right of his own opinion, but you really are obsessed by this subject. Please explain where that fierce hate comes from or just stop talking about it.

Leopold Auer(1845-1930)

was a Hungarian violinist, teacher, conductor and composer.

wow! Beautiful piece!!! Thank you  for sharing.

@jin12345678 Don't hold your breath. I would also be happy, but no demand, no teachers in the style. Just be glad the recordings still exist. BTW notice how much more beautiful this playing is than Heifetz', his, unfortunately, most famous student.

Wow!!!!

[jin12345678]

I hope this less-vibrato, less bow pressure, sweeter tone approach in violin makes a comeback soon. not to histrionic, not too blindly intense, more tempered and subjective.

@lanarv Suzuki didn't study with Auer.
