I was lucky enough to see this wonderful violinist in Vienna at the Musikverein in 2011. And what he says about Harnoncourt; so true, and so greated loved in Vienna. I was at his very last concert in May 2015 at the Musikverein when he conducted Beethoven #5 which I later found out had been recorded on that night. The wonderful Harnoncourt is so very much missed.
