Extraordinary passion, hypersensitivity, emotional struggles, all of them perhaps 'necessary' factors in HIGH ART. I am afraid there will be a long time before another one like Ferras comes around. In painting we recognize similar psychosynthesis in Vincent van Gogh.
He was a fantastic violinist. The first recording I heard of his was the excellent Brahms Double Concerto with Paul Tortelier. That was an amazing recording.
Magnifique version , Dieu illumine l'âme de Christian Ferras.
Christian Ferras was an incredibly great violinist. His life was a tragedy. Amazing talent.

To me this is the ultimate recording of the Chaconne - apart from Segovias 1959 recording.
A very earnest and intense rendition- the version that best fits the term "tragic" reading-
very impressive indeed. thank you.
ferras doesnt disappoint
v v powerful renditin how does he get that echoing quality
this is great, thank you!
....Segovias "1959 recording" - which is in fact the 1947 recording....sorry.
