I was just browsing for a few songs by Yehudi Menuhin and came upon 100 selections for $13+ !!! what an awesome deal. Some complain that his later recordings showed faulty technique, even though probably none of those armchair critics could demonstrate a more “perfect” technique. I’ve always found his playing replete with musicianship. I’m an amateur violinist myself and will enjoy these tracks through out my listening career.
