Bach's music was central to the life and career of Yehudi Menuhin and the violonist is captured in his full early bloom in these performances from the 1930s. Joining the teenage Menuhin in the first and most celebrated of his four recordings of the concerto for Two Violins is his teacher and mentor, George Enescu.
Take your time to listen to this CD. Enescu was a genius of violin interpretation and he supervised the musical evolution of Menuhin. These recordings, dating from a time when Bach was reinvented for the 20th century listener shows why some are addicted to musicians that were in direct relation to the source of inspiration for this works. Music as you never hear it before and most certainly you'll never hear it again. enjoy the deep musical liaison between Menuhin, Enescu and Bach. Somewhere along the road they come so close to divinity. A rare bird in the cool air of musical heights.
