’This is a fascinating study, meticulously researched, eminently readable and a goldmine for reliable information about Heifetz, the cultural history of concertizing, the critical reception of Bach’s works for solo violin, for potential ways forward in music performance research, and much more.’ Dorottya Fabian, University of New South Wales, Australia 'To sum up, this is a distinguished and scholarly publication, which has been extensively researched.'
