About
Violinist Váša Příhoda was born in what was then the Kingdom of Bohemia, now in the Czech Republic, and he became very famous during the 1920s. It is claimed that star conductor Arturo Toscanini said that even Paganini couldn't play his own music any better. Příhoda was for some years married to Gustav Mahler's niece Alma Rosé, but they were already divorced when he made this fine recording of Elgar's Salut d'amour in 1938 with pianist Otto Alfons Graef.
