Julia Fischer Violin “The Brilliance of her sound is breathtaking, unbelievable how immaculately clean and vivacious her playing was, with what drive she performed the “Bohemian” passages of Dvorak’s violin concerto. Though perfect concerning technique, her playing is all but mechanical. All this was presented by Ms. Fischer with an amazing coolness. .
