Experience Jascha Heifetz’s expressive violin playing on The Lark, an Impex Records all-analog audiophile reissue on 180g mono vinyl. This late-period program moves from the dramatic sweep of Vitali’s Chaconne to Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s lyrical title piece and Fauré’s Violin Sonata No. 1. Settle in with the record and hear Heifetz’s crisp attacks, imaginative phrasing, and sustained notes across three distinct works.
