Yehudi Menuhin: a violonist in Hollywood

"For a long time, I thought I had been born too late. Had I been around some twenty years earlier, I might have seen the one performer of our century to have attained a truly universal dimension, Yehudi Menuhin, performing during his youth. His fame was so phenomenal [...] that Menuhin has remained in collective memory the very symbol of the violin." – Bruno Monsaingeon
