Michael Rabin managed to be one of the most talented and tragic violin virtuosi of his generation!
Hailed as a child prodigy, his talent matured gracefully into an adult level, but he failed to follow in his emotional growth, resulting in a cutting short of his career. He never reached the age of 36, yet remains one of the most fondly remembered of virtuoso violinists for listeners and fellow musicians.
Violinist Michael Rabin is accompanied by pianist Leon Pommers for this recording of compositional works by Debussy, Chopin, Scriabin, Elgar and more!
