“His virtuosity was beyond impressive, but it always served an emotional mood or a musical thought, the same way a stunt by Buster Keaton revealed some aspect of his character while making you say “wow.” A sudden ascent to a dog-whistle-high note, while breathtaking to follow, finished the phrase leading up to it as logically as a tail completes a cat. When Yehuda played alone, pianissimo, he took the volume down to a daring threshold of audibility, commanding the stage so completely that people stopped coughing, or even breathing.”
