I don't remember what it was called. 10-15 is in any case innacurate. It was more like 15-20.
Yea it must be, because that's around when Heifetz died.

2008-20 = 1988.. that's all I was saying.
What about Jennifer Koh, Vadim Gluzman, Lara St. John, Josh Roman, Denise Djokic, and Lisa Kim? You seem to do an awful lot of research on whatever comes up as the first 3 hits of Google or Wikipedia.
Lara I've heard of... but the rest aren't exactly household names. You, as a violinist, are obviously familiar with them but again, they're not household names like Midori, Sarah Chang, Joshua Bell, Leila Josefowicz, Ann Sophie Mutter, Itzhak Perlman, Hilary Hahn, etc.
Yea but they're far from nobodies. They might not be familiar to you, but any season ticket holder in a major city would probably be familiar with Gluzman or Koh (famous for her silver in Tchaikovsky competition). Lisa Kim is in the New York Phil, and Josh Roman was the youngest principle cellist in any American orchestra, and has quit his job to be a soloist.
yea no ****, I know that better than you do, it's just that you copy and pasted names that ARE in fact unknown to even most musicians so I was just pointing out that there are a few people making decent 6 figures a year who are laureates of that small competition.
the 19th century was a lowpoint for Italian making. Rocca, Pressenda etc... are really not that great and unecessarily overpriced. The 19th century was very much about French makers, Lupot and then Vuillaume. You can buy a really great Vuillaume for about $200,000 and it will sound better than a lot of run of the mill strads.
Ahha,
