Description
MENDELSSOHN Violin Concerto Op. 64
RAVEL Tzigane. Michael Rabin, Philharmonia Orchestra / Sir Adrian Boult
SAINT-SAENS Havanaise. Philharmonia Orchestra / Alceo Galliera.
Michael Rabin managed to be one of the most talented and tragic violin virtuosi of his generation. Hailed as a child prodigy, his talent matured gracefully into an adult level, but he failed to follow in his emotional growth, resulting in a cutting short of his career. He never reached the age of 36, yet remains one of the most fondly remembered of virtuoso violinists for listeners and fellow musicians. In the 1950s, Rabin signed with Capitol-EMI, for which he recorded the most important part of his legacy.
