In this episode, I talk with one of my former violin teachers, Shmuel Ashkenasi. Throughout his career he distinguished himself as an extraordinary soloist and during his time in the Vermeer Quartet as one of the greatest chamber musicians of our time. Given all his advancements in technique and musical ideas, I believe him to be one of the most important violinists of our time. He was a graduate of The Curtis Institute and now currently teaches there. In this interview, we discuss his former teachers Ilona Feher, Toshia Eto, and Efrem Zimbalist, and his views on technique, phrasing, vibrato, the release and articulation of notes as well as intonation, and practicing tips.
