La Fille Aux Cheveux De Lin


"La Fille aux cheveux de lin", Débussy. E outras.

Jascha Heifetz: "There is sentiment in abundance but little sentimentality; while Heifetz does not banish portamento altogether he uses it sparingly and he will not descend to histrionic manipulation. “When [Bruno] Walter comes to something beautiful, he melts,” Toscanini once said, in a moment of exasperation. Heifetz never melts, but I can’t imagine many 1990s listeners finding these records chilly. The passion is subtle, the artistic personality unusually self-effacing for its era. But both are present." Tim Page sobre Heifetz (Set.95) para a "New Criterion".
