"... full of gorgeous moments... the cameos of each violinist, little and big, are rich, intimate character studies full of warm humor." The Spectator

The Guelph Spring Festival provides the backdrop for this extraordinary meeting between two of the most impressive prodigies of the violin: 76-year-old Sir Yehudi Menuhin and 14-year-old Corey Cerovsek.
With the Camerata Lysy Gstaad (his own student orchestra from Switzerland) Menuhin, with characteristic warmth, humor, and rigor, holds a master class for some of Canada's most gifted violin students. The culmination is a dramatic performance of Bach's Concerto in D minor for Two Violins, with Menuhin and Cerovsek.
Awards:
Best Performing Arts Program, Gemini Awards
Honorable Mention, National Educational Film & Video Festival
Reviews:
"Fascinating footage of a young genius preparing for his encounter with the old master... full of gorgeous moments... the cameos of each violinist, little and big, are rich, intimate character studies full of warm humor." The Spectator
"There is definitely an audience for this video. Music lovers as well as students who may not have the good fortune to have Menuhin as a personal instructor will benefit from his astute observations. Library collections should feature this program... It is highly recommended." **** Video Rating Guide for Libraries
"High school and college string students, as well as orchestra teachers, will find this video enjoyable and beneficial." Kansas Music Review
