Let me begin the new forum with and homage to my
admiring Ginette Neveu. IMO one of the best violinist
(men or women) during her sadly short life.

No me jodas,Manuel. Sabes perfectamente quien era el
gran violinista que puse, "el Kreisler inglés". El mejor
Elgar que se haya grabado,EMO.

Supongo entonces que es Sammons. Debe ser, siempre me pareció que Neveu era un poco más delgada.

Ginette era un palo. Y las malas lenguas dicen que era
bastante macho. Ciertamente no hay nada "femenino"
en su modo de tocar. Rasgos angulosos, pelo corto,
ropa muy poco elegante y una pose y movimientos no
muy mujeriles que digamos.

What made Ginette Neveu's playing stand out was the passion she brought to what she played. In addition, of course, to her musical and rhythmic sense, and to her immaculate intonation and bowing. She is one of a small bunch of violinists who can be recognised very quickly in any blind tasting.

Tolong tulis di dalam Bahasa Inggeris (i.e. - you "Spaniard"-speaking people - PLEASE WRITE in ENGLISH).

Thanks - Lee

Not great thoughts what you missed, Rabin_fan.

Carlos said the man in his avatar wasn't Ginette Neveu but the english Kreisler, who recorded the best Elgar. What leads us to think...

... that the man was Sammons.

I remember the first time I listened to her recording of the Sibelius Violin Concerto.  I was in absolute awe of her interpretation as it penetrated me deeply.
