"When Jascha Heifetz played his violin, the world listened," writes the music magazine Strings. "From the first movement of his bow, bringing forth an immaculate, vibrant technique to express the voice and soul of the violin repertoire, he had the ability to hold the listener enraptured." Most of us were not lucky enough to hear him in person, but we can approach that experience with this recital, filmed in 1971, in which Heifetz performs a selection of his favorite pieces by Mozart, Debussy, Gershwin, Rachmaninov, and Prokofiev. He is also shown in a recording session, in which he offers his insights on music and performs shorter works. "Heifetz's legendary care with the smaller pieces—which used to be legitimate parts of recital programs, and many of which he arranged himself—resonates more than ever with string players today."—Strings
