Weekend music to chill by....Hot Fiddling Edition!

Hello Music Fans!!!

The Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso by Camille Saint-Saens, performed by Jascha Heifetz, a/k/a "God's Fiddler".

Composed in 1863 for 15 year old violin virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate. I worked on this piece myself back in late high school. Very challenging but a gorgeous and expressive piece of French Romanticism.
Enjoy!
