Jascha Heifetz - Icon: The Master Violinist (6CD Box Set, 2008)

These 6 CDs take you from 1925 (the year Heifetz became a U.S. citizen) to 1949-you'll find many a benchmark recording of the violin repertoire here. He reaches towering heights of emotion and virtuosity as he plays Mendelssohn ( Violin Concerto in E Minor ), Mozart ( Violin Concerto No. 4 in D ), Sibelius ( Violin Concerto in D Minor ), Tchaikovsky ( Violin Concerto in D ), Beethoven ( Violin Sonata No. 9 in A ), Franck ( Sonata in A ), and more!
