Joseph Gold, violinist, has been praised on four continents for his brilliant interpretations of the great repertoire for violin of the nineteenth-century violin virtuosos of Paganini, Sarasate, Bazzini, and others. A noted musicologist as well as performer, he has discovered many unknown compositions by Sarasate and Paganini, and has premiered several works by twentieth-century composers written especially for him.
Mr. Gold is a graduate of the University of Southern California and a former student of the legendary Jascha Heifetz.
