| Description: | His success was such, that in April 1912 he recorded his first records for the Gramophone and the Typewriter Company in Paris. In May 1928 he recorded his own works in Camden. These are the recordings presented here. His interpretation is at all times of the utmost delicacy, up to the last detail. The sound quality is constant with extremely clear diction, a rare class. Precise, agile tuning in harmonic and continuous double stop passages, a technique he enjoyed a lot. His much-acclaimed domain of the bow is reflected in his relaxed fluidity. The duration of the recordings is defined by the technical devices available at that time, which were limited to a little more than three minutes. In some cases, due to a lack of documentation, there are doubts as to who the pianist accompanying him is. Marta Lehman is always present where accredited, but there is also the possibility that in some of the first recordings it was José Iturbi. His works were of a Latin American nature (“Segunda guajira”), tzigano (“Danza española”) or a melodic, lyrical nature (“Canto amoroso”) They are works that are made to measure in which the virtuoso goes through his favourite techniques to delight in them. We would also like to highlight the high quality of the composition and harmonisation of the piano accompaniments, which were generally absent with virtuoso composers such as Sarasate, Wieniawski, Ernst and Kreisler. | |
