           MARTA EITLER - VIOLINIST

Autographed 3” x 5” photograph of the Hungarian-British violinist.  Eitler studied in Budapest with Hubay and later in Vienna. She emigrated to Britain after the Anschluss.  She brushed up her technique with Sacha Lasserson a famous Russian born pedagogue in Britain, who had been a pupil of Leopold Auer.  While she did make a number of records, her rendition of the Schubert Konzertstück for violin and orchestra in 1959 with Karl Haas and the London Baroque Orchestra remains one of the best of the renditions out there.  Gramophone Magazine raved at the time about her style and playing.  Eitler also was a major endorser for Pirastro violin strings.  The violinist bravely went to Germany in 1955, to play both concerts and radio performances throughout the Country.
