Synopsis

Product Description
In late-1930s America the Great Depression raged on, affecting all parts of life, not least the arts. Whereas European violinists had once flocked to the U.S. to seek fame and fortune, now only perfomers of the highest qualifications and brightest musical personality could hope to launch a successful career. Such was Rene Charles (Zino) Francescatti. He was a seasoned 37 year old performer when he made his American debut, and he rose to become one of the world s leading violinists. This collection presents his best commercially issued recordings in new digital transfers.
