Remarkable and entertaining look at the Great violinist and his pupils. Remarkable talent and deserving of the title "Geatest violinist of the Century" that BMG records have labeled him with. Supreme technician and musicality. Perfectionist with no peer. Played both Stradivarious and Guanerious violins. Very evident is the pedagogue approach to teaching and it was clearly a one sided experience to study under Heifetz. Eric Friedman later collaborated with Mr Heifetz on several recordings. Lot of good music to be had here, and would love to see more of these kind of videos brought to light if they are out there, not only of Mr Heifetz but other master classes as well.
