What s going on with Menuhin?

Menuhin is an American violinist born in New York. He began to play the piano at the age of 4 and played Mendelssohn's concerto at his solo debut in San Francisco at the age of 7. In 1926, he went to Europe and studied under Bush and Enescu.

In 1932, at the age of 16, Menuhin premiered the Elgar Concerto in London, conducted by the 75-year-old Elgar himself, and recorded a historic record that is still a great story in the music scene. Bartók wrote a solo violin sonata for him in 1944. Unfortunately, from about the mid-60s, Menuhin's right arm began to wobble when he pulled down the bow, which seriously affected his technical control, and his bow movement was unstable, causing his ** performance to make repeated mistakes.

But we don't have to overstate Menuhin's decline, especially in studio-produced records, where his charm remains undiminished. Hope it helps!
