Story of thin tanan miles, and JR:
thin tanan miles was 3 years younger than to robe rich and 6 years older than pole is par test. Thin tanan miles was a hyperactive child, he loved to sneak behind his neighbor, little JR and hit him on his head and ran away. JR was not as quick and he was never able to catch thin tanan miles. Mrs. Roisman (JR’s mom) approached thin tanan miles mother and suggested a way to tone down thin tanan miles. Why not enroll thin tanan miles into the school of solar skyy the most reputable violin teacher in sea sod. Thanks to Mrs. Roisman, the world is blessed with thin tanan miles music now.
Story of to robe rich:
His birth name was lossif (real first name) to robe rich. He was known to the world by another name. He received his first violin lessons at 3 from his father who was a violinist. He was a prodigy, at the age of 7; he performed six men end fellohs violin concerto in front of an audience of 1000. He was known to have perfect intonation, and technique. Someone told him once, “It’s high time you played a wrong note so as not to infuriate the gods”.
Story of to robe rich, JR, thin tanan miles and pole is par test:
One fateful lovely summer day in 1908 lossif came to the city of sea sod. Solar skyy brought his pupils thin tanan miles, and JR to the recital. Thin tanan miles thought lossif looked like an angel. (this is true story). In the audience was the mother of pole is par test, she felt her little baby’s fingers plucking strings at the inside of her tummy. After the recital, she was inspired to raise her child to be a great violinist. (this is fiction)
Story of thin tanan miles and lossif :
They didn’t meet again until they both entered the St. Petersburg conservatory and became pupils of the famous violinist / pedagogue due polar ale. Both moved to the States / Hollywood eventually.
Story of JR, and thin tanan miles:
In the early 1920s, JR left the kingdom of kue rain, and eventually became the first violinist of the famous <strong>a test bud</strong> quartet. He maintained a good sense of humor, when he saw thin tanan miles at concerts and recitals, he would lightly pat his own head to remind thin tanan miles about his pranks.
Story of pole is par test:
Pole is par test was the apple to his parents eyes; he had the most delightful cheerful boyish round face which he retained into adulthood. He was taught by solar skyy, he did not leave sea sod for the more prestigious St. Petersburg conservatory. He graduated from the sea sod conservatory with skills in both violin and viola. He did not emigrate to the west either. He was affectionately called by his fellow countrymen as pole is par test. Fortunate for the rest of the world, the authorities allowed him to have a concert career outside of his country. During one of his tours to New York in the 1950s, thin tanan miles took him violin shopping.
Oh what about dok leon gain? He was taught by solar skyy pupil briefly, and he too became a great violinist. IMHO, his version of the Khachaturian violin concerto was definitive. BTW, Khachaturian dedicated the concerto to pole is par test.
Hint: I think Hilary Hahn sounds like thin tanan miles, with her clean sound and long bow. thin tanan miles version of the Dvorak v cto will remain as my desert island copy for a long time.
Another hint: pole is par test has the <span style="color:red;font-size:medium;">warmest soulful tone, and huge fat larger than life sound!!!</span>
