ELECTRIC VIOLINISTS
And some recordings

including alphabetical list of violin players 1924 to 2006

The choice, who to include? Deciding is not easy. This work is not about promoting any player over another. It exists only to show the story of the electric violin from the beginning to where it is today and in doing so hopefully prompting questions of what and who comes next. It is of no real concern if choices made are met with surprise, ridicule or disappointment etc.; and it would not be a total surprise if it is met with no reaction at all.
As little is generally known about the huge variety of music played using violins with electric music technology, so the following players included here represent a broad mixture of famous, infamous and obscure. Their music may or may not be to your taste, but for the seriously interested in being electric violinist and for those studying electric violin this chapter needs to be explored thoroughly.

There are many violinists who perform and record using electric violins. Most have to and not just at some point in their career, more often than not. Yet in some circles and in the first decade of the 21st Century at least, the huge breadth of music within the scope of electric violin does not apparently include Classical music. This, of course, is totally untrue.

There have been countless brilliant acoustic violinists both before and during the development of electric violin playing as a profession. Most are given ample space in an equally ample amount of easily found publications and so are not mentioned here. Many have also worked with acoustic and electric recording techniques and are stars in the eyes of many but even so, they are not given space here.

The quality of the music made on record or on stage by just one of the giants of the more recent Classical Violin world, Jascha Heifetz is always going to be a debatable issue because there is such a wealth of audio, visual and written material available to study - The RCA label released a 65 CD boxed set at the end of the 20th Century! Curiously, because Heifetz often worked within the strict boundaries of the electrically driven recording studio he was by some definition of the word also an electrified violinist. Heifetz was filmed too, and could not really escape from this. Perhaps then, this is why he appeared so emotionless in performance, even coldly calculative - Heifetz knew there was a recording device present and he played to it, including it in his performance? Also, Heifetzs technical ability is open to microscopic inspection because of the music technology available during his career - as too is the violin playing of Flesch and Menhuin. Joachim and Ysaye were also captured using recording techniques, but possibly none then as thoroughly as Heifetz. Obviously too, Thibaud; Kochanski; Korngold; Kubelik; Oistrach; Rabin; Ricci; Perlman; Accado et al must included in this list and should really be studied... But, there is not time, not in anyones life to thoroughly learn from all the Great Players that Great Teachers insist the budding violinist to seek out.

The respected figures so fleetingly mentioned here then and those left out completely would ideally be included but are not. There is a greater need, to show something of the huge amount of music created with electric violin by electric violinists - although a definition of each term is yet to be generally decided upon, there is a large and growing number of violinists who choose electric over pure acoustic. Declaring the number to be too small to be of interest or concern ignores fact. Hole and nit-picking is welcomed, by all means, find who is here wrongly represented, missed out or grossly over-rated.

The decisions ultimately made linger somewhere around including violinists who were electrified by choice and excluded those arguable examples based on those who are elsewhere, or may already be well documented. All considered, both ways this document is incomplete and the details given expected to contain disinformation. Such is the lot of the researcher having to rely on what was chose to be recorded.
