Jascha Heifetz was called the emperor of the violin by the media. But does he deserve the title? This experiment will help to find out. Here are two performances of the same musical piece ( Brahms violin concerto, third part). One is by Heifetz (I'll not tell you which), another  by a female violinist you never heard about. I suggest that you after  blind listening tell which performance is better. It would be good if you also explain your choice in a posting.

First performance
