The three virtuosos Ysaÿe, Vieuxtemps and Wieniawski pushed violin playing to a higher level, seemingly with no limit, and left behind them a grand tradition of violin performing. Both Vieuxtemps, a prominent exponent of the Franco-Belgian violin school, and Wieniawski, the inventor of the “Russian bow hold”, were teachers of Eugene Ysaÿe. The latter mentioned was regarded as the “Tsar” of the violin, as his refined technique, sophisticated interpretations, ravishingly beautiful vibrato and sound was unlike any violinist of his generation. Even though their fame as composers was overshadowed by their talent as performers, still to this day, at the top of the wish list of current artists stands the exuberant pieces written by these legends.
