    Anyone know who the violinist is that he’s coaching?

    • Andrew Condon says:

      Commentator names soloist at end of the clip – difficult to decipher accurately but sounds something like Marthe Piercieux

  • Jascha says:

    Pity we can’t see this anymore…I believe he is playing on
    the girl’s violin, so it isn’t his Strad.

  • nathanchik says:

    The violinist was Marthe Tercieux. She taught for a while at the conservatory in Boulogne-sur-Mer.
