Please note: while the sound for the first 20 seconds or so of this cylinder recording is distorted, the quality improves quickly and, for such an old recording, is really quite good. The original arrangement of this work for violin and cello was made by Michael Press, violinist, 1871-1938, my maternal grandfather. This is a recording done in someone's home in Berlin around 1908 on a Julius Block Cylinder ((http•••) the sound is wobbly at the beginning but improves.

Jacobsen Drigo Gdal Saleski Franz Kneisel Mischa Levitzki John Powell Leo Ornstein Stokowsky Philadelphia Orchestra Metropolitan Opera House 1895 1915 1919 1926
Recorded in 1919. A selection from the CD "The Early Recorded Violin, Volume 1"available at (http•••) From: Famous Musicians Of A Wandering Race by Gdal Saleski THE FAMILY of Sasha Jacobsen, the violinist, can trace music in its blood from its earliest recollections. For at least three generations back, every member of the Jacohsen family, both on thepaternal and maternal branches, have played some musical instrument. Some have reached professional attainments, others a high degree of amateur proficiency. Sascha's father is an excellent 'cellist, his mother is as conversant with music as an amateur can be, his brother is a pianist, one sister a pianist, another a violinist. But this musical talent found its highest expression in Sascha who, since childhood, showed great musical gifts. He justified all the prophecies made for him by famous artists and by his teachers. Sascha Jacobsen was born in Helsingfors, Finland, on December 11, 1895. He spent the first eleven years of his life partly in Finland and partly in Leningrad. At the age of eight, Sascha began to prepare for the class which had become the mecca of all violin aspirants. But the Russian Revolution intervened and at the age of eleven the boy found himself in America. Soon after, he became a member of another famous violin class, that of Franz Kneisel. In 1915 his famous teacher pronounced him ready for public appearance. Since that time Jacobsen has toured the country extensively, played in all the large and small centers, and became a favorite with phonograph owners as well. He possesses a marvelous technique, his runs are always clear, and his intonation is almost beyond reproach. He has temperament, but not to such an extent as to mar his playing or drive beauty from his tone. He has youth, a beautiful artistic outlook and a rare love of his art. In sonata recitals, Jacobsen has been associated with such celebrated pianists as Mischa Levitzki, John Powell, and Leo Ornstein. He has been soloist with the New York Symphony Orchestra under Walter Damro.sch, with the New York Philharmonic Society under Siransky, with the Philadelphia Orchestra under Stokowsky, with the Metropolitan Opera House, etc. On the death of his former teacher, Kneisel, in March of 1926. Sascha Jacobsen was invited to succeed him as head of the violin department of the Institute of Musical Art (later Julliard) in New York.

Cellist Josef Press, born in Vilna, at the time part of the Russian Empire, in 1882, was my great uncle and brother of my grandfather, violinist Michael Press.
