I'm glad to see that die-hard Maestronetters still exist. But I don't think you're allowed to guess if you've been reading kabalnet .

[oldgeezer]

Yup, it's Aaron Rosand. And it's lovely playing.

[Roderick Quiros]

Out of curiosity, what is this piece of music? (also, what was your selection for MV#4?) They're both quite nice.

[Carlo_jsb]

This is the second movement of Wieniawski's 2nd Concerto.

Number 4 was the Wieniawski Legende.

I don't think it's Arthur Grumiaux. Rosand is more likely but I thought he'd have a more intense vibrato and fuller sound. It has the sweet and rounded finesse of Gil Shaham and Corey Cerovcek (also the recording is very modern) but I check their sound clips on amazon and no, it's not them. I'd bet Rosand if you press me, but I really have no idea.

I have been to Kabal's site yet my opinion is not, in any way, tarnished or colored by what any one else has said or not said. I still believe is a very refined performer, in the lights of Grumiaux or Rosand, that vein.

I confess. I cheated. hk1997 failed to delete the name of the album on the MP3 so it showed up on my player when I downloaded. The name of the album is Romances for Violin and Piano and a check of Amazon turned up this.

[hk1997]

yup...what oldgeezer said. I forgot to delete part of the ID3 tag on this one.
