Wow, that's really clean. If anyone has anything negative to say, just try doing upbow stacatto yourself.

Thanks for the tidbit. Heifetz probably was using his Strad for the 1938 recording and Del Gesu for the 1952. Perhaps he wanted the staccato passages to have more bite?

The downbow staccato is especially godly.

The 1938 performance was a Vitaphone recording, and there were several takes before Heifetz was satisfied with it. This recording, from a short concert at Pomona College in 1952, was done once with no retakes. The piano is too loud in places, and the violin sounds rough in spots. The other recording is here on YouTube, but it wasn't transferred properly, and it's a half-tone sharp.

yes, he never quite gave away how he did the one-bow staccatos that he used in this piece, although from the video one can try to assume it's based on a controlled 'spasming' of the right arm and wrist lol
