I do enjoy this, but it might be too much of a rip off of seidel's recording of this piece...

Steinhardt actually studied the violin with Galamian at the Curtis Institute and furthered his studies with Szigeti in Switzerland. He never studied with Toscha Seidel but aspired to play like him, Mischa Elman and Jascha Heifetz.

Great video. What striking character is Mr. Steinhardt. I caught the Guarneri String Quartet back in '96 or '97 in Rio de Janeiro, unexpectedly. Even after an encore, an ovation spontaneously arose, difficult for the quartet to leave the stage. Teatro Municipal, life, was beautiful that night.

"Old-fashioned" meaning a style of playing from Old Russia with the most renowned teacher being Leopold Auer, whose most famous pupil was Heifetz. However, a lesser known pupil was Toscha Seidel, who happened to be one of Arnold's earliest teachers. From this clip, a true connoisseur or professional can tell right away his "pedigree" by his vibrato, phrasing, and just that "je nais se qoi."

Wow, love his old-fashioned style of playing, especially his bowing. Even though he's in his 70s, he certainly lives up to the stereotype of the distinguished older gentleman.
