Morini, Erica. (1904-1995). Signed Photograph . Signed 8 x 10 inch glossy photograph from the GREAT Austrian violinist, shown playing her violin with a dramatic sash tied around her waist. Boldly signed and dated 1963 in blue ink. Corners creased, heavy crease at upper left and extending from the middle left through the inscription, as well as surface creases/crazing at several other areas.
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!
