Menuhin, Yehudi. (1916–1999) & Enesco, Georges. (1881–1955) . Original Photograph in Rehearsal.
Original 1943 photograph of the violinist and conductor rehearsing together, Menuhin looking on from the soloist's position as Enesco gives a note at the podium. Stamped on the verso by the photographer, Eric Schaal. Matte sepia print, in fine condition save some slight buckling. 10 x 8 inches (25.2 x 20.2 cm).

The Romanian violinist, conductor and composer Georges Enesco (or George Enescu) was considered by Pablo Casals "one of the greatest geniuses of modern music." He was also a hugely important mentor to the younger violinist Yehudi Menuhin, who began studying with him in Paris in the 1927, at the age of only 11. While Menuhin shot to fame, Enesco's work has stayed in relative obscurity—perhaps due to his modesty, perhaps due to the difficulties he experienced amid the tumult of post-war Europe. The two remained close, often collaborating and making several recordings with Menuhin as soloist and Enesco as conductor.
