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.
I have a high quality stereo system and I can not tolerate hearing an
MP3 on it let alone a youtube tune.
It can get as good as "not too unpleasant." I find it least
objectionable in historical mono recordings and it seems I can tolerate
lower quality from bootleg-ish video.
It helps a little to hit the hq button.
