Arthur Grumiaux and Friends
A channel dedicated to the art of Arthur Grumiaux and his circle of friends, colleagues and disciples.
Here you’ll find rare archival recordings, live broadcasts and carefully remastered performances by the legendary Belgian violinist, alongside great artists such as David Oistrakh, laureates of the Queen Elisabeth Competition, and other close musical partners.
Our goal is to share the elegance, purity of tone and musical integrity that made Grumiaux one of the most admired violinists of the 20th century. Expect violin concertos, sonatas, chamber music and orchestral collaborations, from studio sessions to historic live concerts – many of them hard to find elsewhere.
Subscribe if you love golden-age violin playing, historical recordings and high-quality classical music uploads. New videos are added regularly as we continue to explore private archives, radio tapes and concert recordings connected to Arthur Grumiaux and his friends.
