This record presents two violinists — a teacher and a pupil — Zakhar Bron and Vadim Repin. Both are winners of international competitions — Z. Bron of the Queen Elizabeth in Brussels (1971) and Wieniawski in Poznan (1977). In 1982 the 11-year-old Vadik Repin came first at the Wieniawski Young Violinists' Competition in Lublin. Polish newspapers wrote: "Talent! Only this can account for the fact that this plump vivacious boy played Wieniawski's virtuosic work with such amazing ease." Yes, it is the only explanation if talent also means the boy’s tremendous capacity for hard work. He plays "at the level of the best adult standards" and studies without any allowances for his age. The young musician's talent is also the talent of his teacher.
Vadim Repin is not the only prize winner in the class of Z. Bron, the RSFSR Merited Worker in the Arts, assistant professor of the Novosibirsk Conservatoire. Among his pupils there are winners of All-Russia, All-Union and international competitions. One of them is young Maxim Vengerov who in 1985 also won the first prize at the International Competition in Lublin.
Zakhar Bron is a concert musician. Soviet and foreign press have praised him for his virtuosic technique, classical phrasing, his expressive bowing, a fusion of the emotional and intellectual. For his performance of Szymanowski's concerto at the Wieniawski Competition Bron was awarded a special prize of Poland's Union of Composers.
In Poland he regularly participates in a seminar on violin playing and methods of its teaching for young performers from different countries. Bron is a pupil of I. D. Oistrakh who in his turn studied under his father D. F. Oistrakh. That's why Vadim Repin is often called David Oistrakh's "great grandson".
Forestalling sceptical remarks Z. Bron once said: "I cannot predict what'll happen to Vadik Repin in 10 years. I’m a teacher, and my task is to demand progress from my pupil in accordance with his age."
Repin is a student of the secondary special music school at the Novosibirsk Conservatoire. He has now in his repertoire concertos by Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Khrennikov, Khachaturian, Poem for Violin and Orchestra by E. Svetlanov, works by Paganini, Bach, Beethoven, Schumann, Ysaye. His appearances at home and abroad are a great success with the audiences and the critics. However, what is particularly important for Repin's teacher is that the boy's prodigious talents continue to grow and expand. As to Repin's musicianship T. Khrennikov had this to say: "I find only one definition — tremendous talent. Playing the violin for him is a source of happiness and joy of creation."
