I also use the beginning of the Glazunov to test violins, and I do go all the way to the animato. I feel that it gives me a feel for the upper register on the lower strings for much longer than Bruch or Tchaikovsky. Thank you Rachel! These videos are fantastic.
I love to hear you talking about a piece! The piece is never the same again... so much better! Thank you so much for sharing!🌻

Perlman's take on the Glazunov is probably my favorite.
Didn't Prokofiov used that little guitar strumming on his first violin concerto?
