Default So much for artillery

Any musicians around? I'm sure you know Zigeunerweisen by Sarasate. I just
heard a performance (radio). It was by turns irritating and enthralling.
Is this piece considered difficult for a pro to play?


Yes and not everyone who can play it understands the style.
Looking at YouTube, I'd check out Rabin, Heifetz and Sarasate.


Serious question: Do youtube musical bits have any value other than
previewing something you might want to buy in a real format? Even when I
play them through my real stereo, using Tivo, the quality is awful.
