About the Artist
Have Violin, Will Travel-The Louis Persinger Story offers a journey with author Raymond Bruzan as he explores the places and people who contributed to the life of violin virtuoso Louis Humphrey Persinger. This book includes information and photos from his family and students that have not been widely shared in previous studies of Persinger.
Born in the Central Illinois village of Rochester in 1887, Louis became the pride of his hometown as his international fame soared even before he graduated from Germany’s Leipzig Conservatory of Music.
Persinger’s acclaimed performing career in Europe and America was followed by a notable career teaching violin students, including child prodigies Yehudi Menuhin, Ruggiero Ricci, Isaac Stern, and Camilla Wicks. He taught three decades as professor of music at The Juilliard School in New York City.
