FLASHBACK FRIDAY | Jascha Heifetz - 1952, LIFE Magazine

By The Violin Channel

1 MIN READ

Captured in 1952 for LIFE magazine, Albanian-American photographer Gion Mili attached a light to Jascha Heifetz’s bow and had him play in a darkened room – allowing the camera to capture the bow’s movements

The resulting effect: music literally pouring from the virtuoso's arm
