The legend that surrounds this violinist's 1917 smash debut at Carnegie Hall—which resulted in rave reviews and stories of rival violinists mopping up after their own nervous flop-sweat—is as undying as the intense, precise sound of his vibrato. Deploying his strong technique most often in the service of works by Bach, Beethoven and Mozart, he also paid attention to the contemporary composers of his time (like Stravinsky and Korngold), and even recorded some jazz-inflected sides in the '40s (including duets with Bing Crosby). The performance paragon also served an educational role, through a series of “master class” performances on film. Tour the formidable musicianship of this legendary violinist.
