Ginette Neveu

Ginette Neveu was, for 14 years, one of the most promising musicians of the twentieth century, a violin virtuoso who dazzled audiences in her native France with her performances, and listeners around the world with her recordings. She is remembered today for the promise of her few recordings, and the tragedy of her early death in an airplane crash [more from AMG]

I notice the Canberra Theatre is holding a tribute concert for the 60th anniversary of violinist Ginette Neveu's fatal plane crash on return from her recital tour of Australia

Her recordings are quite scarce however we do have several copies of Ginette Neveu playing Sibelius and Suk on Australian World Record Club. Follow this link, or search for Ginette Neveu at www.recordking.com.au
