violinists

After auditioning some of your musicians, we found a pianist on the oboe and violinists playing the drums and, following these auditions, we told you that the music did not sound right.

Darauf haben Sie uns geantwortet: „ Kein Problem, wenn es einen Kommissar oder eine Kommissarin mit Interessenkonflikten gibt, dann werden sie eben nur Teilzeitkommissare, und ich, Barroso, werde die Dinge in die Hand nehmen.

Dear Violinists,

Lieber Violinisten,

he said, as he raised the violin to his left shoulder, tucking it under his chin. He had told her many violinists used a shoulder rest, but he did not: there was a slight mark on the side of his throat, like a permanent bruise, where the violin rested. “You — made something for me?” Tessa asked. “I wrote something for you,” he corrected, with a smile, and began to play.

sagte er, als er die Geige hob seine linke Schulter, steckte sie unter seinem Kinn. Er hatte ihr gesagt, viele Geiger verwendet eine Schulterstütze, aber er tat es nicht: Es gab eine leichte Markierung auf der Seite der Kehle, wie eine permanente Beule, wo die Geige ruhte. "Du - aus was für mich" Tessa gefragt. "Ich habe etwas für dich geschrieben", korrigierte er mit einem Lächeln, und begann zu spielen.

Christian Ferras (1933-1982) was, alongside Jacques Thibaud, Zino Francescatti and Ginette Neveu, one of the great violinists who had a determining influence on the Franco-Belgian violin school: an art of playing the violin which is often associated with sensuality, elegance and a refined sound quality.

Christian Ferras (1933–1982) gehörte mit Jacques Thibaud, Zino Francescatti und Ginette Neveu zu den großen Geigern, die das Bild von der franco-belgischen Violinschule maßgeblich prägten – einer Kunst des Geigenspiels, mit der man Sinnlichkeit, Eleganz und klangliche Raffinesse verbindet.
