Here is Violin Wizard's extensive list of selected violin audio and violin video recordings of the famous and obscure violin Concertos, violin Sonatas, string quartets and violin solos by most of the famous violinists who have ever been recorded. This is our selected list from thousands of violin recordings and this list will be updated once a new recording is available and reviewed by us. This includes violin audio and violin video recordings of master violinists including Jascha Heifetz, David Oistrach, Yehudi Menuhin, Isaac Stern, Itzhak Rabin, Nathan Milstein, Fritz Kreisler and many of the contemporary violinists like Joshua Bell, Hilary Hahn, Gil Shaham, Maxim Vengerov and more. We have also added our violin mp3 picks which can be downloaded for a fraction of the cost of an audio CD.

A violin sonata is a musical composition for solo violin, which is accompanied by a piano or other keyboard instrument.
