Paganini/ Bartok/ Ysaye/ Zacharias - Unaccompanied

It takes a particular and extreme level of skill and dedication to perform virtuoso works for unaccompanied solo violin; suffice it to say these are qualities held by George Zacharia's without doubt. This is a tour-de-force of musicianship and technique - and wonderful music too. Bartok's Sonata is presented in it's original version and of the two awesome Paganini works, the 'God Save the King' Variations are very rarely heard. "The Strad" Gold Star Recommended CD.
