Title: And I usually dislike Heifitz...
Review: Most of the time I have heard Heifitz recordings, I dislike him. He always seems to me as if his playing is the unwinding of a spring that's overtightened; one doesn't feel that he's living each note.But this CD changed my mind.I'm a violinist, and I played this CD to a violinist friend asking him to identify it. He identified the Sibelius from the very first 2 notes. (It is so, so beloved). Within 10 notes he knew the violinist was 'old school'. Within 20 he guessed Heifitz.We both marvelled at the accuracy of his double stops and his spicatto is unmatched.This CD is one of my car's 'top 5'.
