The Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto was the work which introduced Henryk Szeryng and his extraordinary art to audiences of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, at Symphony Hall, in February 1959.
I was there as one of the reviewing press, that Friday afternoon, and I recall the loud and enthusiastic applause which hurst simultaneously with the final chord. For my own part, I said of Szeryng in Saturday morning’s Boston Globe: “. . . a musician who navigates all manner of difficulties with fantastic accuracy and tidiness: who plays a superb Stradivarius with a gorgeous and never forced singing tone, who feels the music in every note and measure, and who does not for a moment indulge in the slightest exaggeration or deviation from style. . . . Here, ladies and gentlemen, you have what I believe to he a really great artist.”
Henryk Szeryng early won fame in his native Poland and then throughout Europe. From 1939 to 1945 he devoted himself largely to giving concerts for the Allied armed forces. Vfter the war he settled in Mexico, becoming a citizen in 1946. Since that time he has concertized throughout the Americas. Western Europe and in Africa and Asia.

“One of the music’s great aristocrats, violinist Henryk Szeryng was a perfectionist in all things. A man of phenomenal intellect, he combined exemplary musical taste with a super-refined technique and ravishing purity of intonation.” Julian Haylock – THE STRAD July 2009
