Morini, Erica. (1904-1995)

Signed Photograph with Violin

A fine signed image of the GREAT Austrian violinist, shown with her famous Strad. Boldly signed above her photograph on the cover of a 1946 Carnegie Hall recital program. Program complete and in very fine condition, 19.6 x 26 cm.

A student of Ottokar Sevcik, she made her Berlin debut under Nikisch in 1917. One of the finest violinists of the 20th century, she was the first woman to record many concerto repertoire staples, including Brahms, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky and Mendelssohn. The elderly Kreisler said Morini performed his pieces better than he ever had and Heifetz apparently turned to Morini for coaching on his staccato-playing! (3243)
