Has any violinist captured the imaginations of ensuing generations to the degree Romanian-American Jascha Heifetz has? Arguably not. So no wonder that there's always a steady trickle of recital releases centred around Heifetz's virtuosic transcriptions of popular tunes, which he used as recital encores (although, fascinatingly, these tend to pop less regularly as actual live recital encores). Still, when most often it's younger generation violinists who are recording this razzle-dazzle repertoire, this programme from Benjamin Schmidt and his pianist wife Ariane Haering – in honour of the 120th anniversary of Heifetz's birth – stands out for being the work of a violinist now in the fourth decade of his performance career.
You can hear all the confidence and technical assurance of years, too, right from his first crisply biting notes and firm portamentos in the programme-opening Prokofiev March from The Love for Three Oranges – a piece which overall he delivers big, bold and broad-toned, with a fabulous sweep to its upwards-racing runs. Likewise the rapid pizzicato strumming of the following Banjo and Fiddle by William Kroll.
Moving forwards, pieces such as It Ain't Necessarily So play perfectly to Schmid's well-exercised jazz muscles, while also opening up the field to a few equally entertaining modern pieces in the spirit of Heifetz – an arrangement of Mish Mash by Romanian Antoni Donchev, plus two pieces inspired by Duke Ellington by Schmid's fellow Austrian, Sabina Hank.
Add the inevitable close musical partnership between Schmid and Haering, and a lively immediacy to the engineering, and all in all it's a thoroughly fun listen. © Charlotte Gardner/Qobuz

Has any violinist captured the imaginations of ensuing generations to the degree Romanian-American Jascha Heifetz has? Arguably not.
