Jascha Heifetz (/ˈhaɪfɪts/; February 2 [O.S. January 20] 1901 – December 10, 1987) was a Russian-American violinist. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest violinists of all time. Born and raised in Vilnius, he studied violin playing as a boy and moved to the United States as a teenager, where his Carnegie Hall debut was rapturously received. He was a virtuoso from childhood. Fritz Kreisler, another leading violinist of the twentieth century, said after hearing Heifetz's debut, "We might as well take our fiddles and break them across our knees." He had a long and successful performing career; then, after an injury to his right (bowing) arm, he switched his focus to teaching.
