Sad to read the news of this very individual violinist's passing today. A player of great charisma and charm, sometimes quirkily idiosyncratic, occasionally wilful, never dull. He leaves a large discography and was performing well into his nineties, with Martha Argerich, no less, just a couple of years ago. I had the privilege of playing for a couple of the masterclasses he gave, ten or fifteen years ago, unforgettable occasions both for the participants and the audience.
