When reaching advanced age, Fritz Kreisler while listening to a young American prodigy, and as a general “constat”, expressed his concerns in those terms:…” but what happened to the sound?” Oistrach was praised by Fritz Kreisler as a truly great violinist… and for those like me who had the privilege of listening to the great artist live several times , the Oistrach individual sound and unique projection in a concert hall is no longer in existence… Sound is the soul… Each soul is unique. And in the past, each was very particular and individual. Milstein, Ginette Neveu, Kreisler, Jacques Thibeault in his prime, Seidel, Heifetz, Elman, Ysaïe, all were unique… Many thanks for your post. It is highly appreciated…
