Last night at the San Antonio symphony concert we heard the Barber violin concerto played by Eric Gratz. In a pre concert interview he mentioned that in the end of the last movement he is playing 12 notes per second. The tempo is set for 192 bits per second. If you have not heard this piece and our a fan of virtuoso violin playing give it a liston Alan |

I once heard a fantastic performance by Jaime Laredo with the Chicago Symphony. A hugely underrated violinist, imho. |
