Violinist Daniel Heifetz

Retired concert violinist Daniel Heifetz founded the Heifetz International Music Institute in 1996 with a mission to draw “the sacred fire” from the world’s brightest and best young classical musicians. Daniel sat down recently with Martha to talk about life, virtuosity, technical precision, and passion.  In 2012, the Institute moved to Staunton and officially became the Heifetz International Music Institute at Mary Baldwin College.

Web extra: Here’s the rest of Martha’s conversation with Daniel, unedited and in no particular order, but pretty durn interesting all the same.

Marth Woodroof has retired from WMRA and is now spending her time as a full-time writer and published author.
