I ran across an intriguing performance video of Gideon Kremer - reminded me I wanted to share a few things, especially his wonderful outlook on life! 

"Share it, it lives - hold on to it, it dies" (knowledge & experience)!

Gidon Kremer: Portrait of one of the world’s most esteemed violinists - an intimate interview.  Tons of info in the YT video description, plus time-stamped Chapters! 

 

This is the Gidon Kremer performance (with the Kremerata Baltica chamber orchestra) that captured my attention!

"Polka", composed by Alfred Schnittke!  (Yellow Lounge)

 

Alfred Schnittke - "Polka", score for violin (Roman Mints) and piano (Katya Apekisheva). (Pathétique)

One of the first CDs I bought when CDs first appeared was his recording of the Bach double, with him playing both parts. I loved it.

I'll watch that documentary when I have some time. Thanks for posting.
