Szeryng was more than a great violinist and a supreme artist. He was great human being. A kind and generous man, he gave much of himself to others - especially to those in need. I had the honor and privilege of meeting him and his lovely wife back in the 1980s. Even though I'm a nobody, he treated me with great kindness, gave me his full attention when I was with him, and even called me "Alejandro Magno"! He autographed his edition of the Bach Solo Sonatas and Partitas for Violin, which I will always treasure and cherish. I miss him and his great artistry. God rest his soul. Thank you for uploading this wonderful video.
Like many on this site, I had the pleasure of hearing Szeryng when I was a young violin student. He was a tremendous performer! I also attended a masterclass he gave at Manhattan School of Music in the 1980s. What distinguished him in my mind was his kindness and generosity toward the young artists who performed. I’ve seen a lot of masterclases with great pedagogues and superb performers, some of whom couldn’t resist embarrassing nervous students or taking a condescending tone. Szeryng was the exact opposite. I miss his humanity and...of course beautiful playing.
Thank you so much for uploading this wonderful performance. I had the privilege of hearing Henryk Szeryng often as I was growing up. My parents took us to his concerts whenever he performed in Boston, New York, and Washington. He was incredible, a sublime violinist and artist, as well as a wonderful human being. Such a great loss in so many ways when he died. Maestro Szeryng, you are never forgotten.
The singing, noble tone, the beauty of his vibrato, clarity, perfect intonation and the wonderful phrasing make this such a special performance. When it comes to violinists, surely this guys is one of the greats of all time...
Le vibrato est le moyen le plus direct pour faire ressortir l'expressivité sur un instrument comme le violon Szeryng en est un parfait exemple ,c'est tout simplement superbe ,n'en déplaise aux soit disant puristes .

Szeryng was the greatest violinist to walk on this Earth.

Too much vibrato

Very, very beautiful! What a musicality and masterly control! This is truly breathing freedom, love it.
Oh, to have a bow arm like that!!
아름답기 그지없는 장 마리 르클레르의 곡을 세기의 거장 헨릭 셰링이 섬세하게 보석 처럼 다듬어서 연주했습니다.
