5.0 out of 5 stars Masterpiece!, September 14, 1999
This review is from: Jealousy: Hits of the Thirties (Audio CD)
The unlikely duo of Menuhin and Grappelli play great pre-war standards. The album is not just a must if you like to hear two great masters play the violin in completely diverging styles, it is just great music to listen to! Very energetic and lively!

4.0 out of 5 stars 5 stars for Grappelli, August 20, 2000
This review is from: Jealousy: Hits of the Thirties (Audio CD)
I saw Grappelli and band about 5 years ago at a local university. As a violinist I was absolutely staggered. He was in his 80's and playing with only a few inches of bow, and yet what elegance and fluidity. Not to mention the wheelchair.This album has great, familiar songs, and I would have rated it higher as there is only 1 Grapelli. When Menuhin plays, you have the sense that he's reading and almost struggling with the musical ideas. Still it's fascinating to hear how 2 men playing the same instrument can sound SO different...
