      Ahahahahha I went to listen to that recording right after this one and can't agree more... His consistency with the vibrato alongside the warm sound, precise rubato which DOES NOT mess up the tempo and beautiful phrasing are chef's kiss!
      Although I do have to say that the modern interpretation of Black Swan Pas de Deux tends to fit the evil side of the Black Swan better, making a very harsh and aggressive sound... I guess it's just the modern interpretation, perhaps back in the days Black Swan used to be more charming and illusionary, for which a sweet, juicy sound works the best and adds more depth to the interpretation...

    I don't think their are any violinists today who could play like that. It's a style from the past that has sadly been lost. I would gladly exchange the great players of the past, when Heifetz was king, with the players of today. The last player I heard play with this wonderful style was Erich Friedman, I've never heard such a sound in my life. That was at the Wigmore Hall in 1975.

There are so many examples of my own musical taste that are just like that: I am aware that emotional urgency (and or other elements) are "over the top" but I am still swept away by it. I listened again to Nadien's interpretation in which I now sense a profound sensuality among other things. There's a lot to the way he does it. It's just so different than what I had become use to. Thanks!
