"As I sat, hour after hour, with Pinchas Zukerman and his Guarnerius del Gesu fiddle, I was overwhelmed by his generosity in revealing to us a lifetime spent with the great violin concertos and admitting us to the inner circle of the great interpreters of the 20th century. These conversations reveal the real Pinchas: brilliant, funny, passionate, honest, humble in the presence of other greatness and as always, the finest player of his generation." - Eric Friesen
