It’s on my play list, but first this rendition. Perlman was greatly influenced by Heifetz according to the liner notes.

I am not familiar with Perlman’s. I will give it a listen!
Yes I have seen him talking about Heifetz being God.

This is a great topic.
Maybe Naim could add the option of sub topics.
It’s a pity that Goldberg gets mixed up with Eroica.
Maybe start a new topic for each work.
After the discussion moved from Bach to Chopin I felt I would be off topic discussing Bach

Not being a musician I tend to favour recordings that introduced me to a particular piece of music; and, I think I’m reluctant to embrace new recordings. When discussing this with friends a few years ago, these two recordings were recommended and they became firm favourites.
Recognise the picture. We were standing underneath that sculpture a couple of weeks ago, when visiting Helsinki.

Sibelius violin concerto: only one for me, Anne-Sophie Mutter (with Previn). She’s extraordinary in this work!
