Very beautiful.
Nice fiddle playing but we must give ultimate credit to the composer, Massenet.

He wrote (1) pieces in his own name and style, (2) pieces in the styles of others under his own name, and (3) pieces that he attempted to pass off as the works of others. Everybody who worked with him loved him.
There is a famous story about him. Back in the Teens or Twenties, Kreisler appeared in a recital in Portland (OR) with a pianist named Bowman. They performed Beethoven's "Kreutzer" Violin Sonata. Then at a party afterward, they performed it again -- with Kreisler on the piano and Bowman on the violin.
Kreisler, is my favorite, especially his original compositions, which contain wonderful piano accompaniment. I recently completed a recording on my plectrum banjo. of “Rondino”, a violin version of a Beethoven rondo which he dedicated to Misha Ellman...turned out pretty good. Production is a few weeks away.
I have this CD kicking around somewhere. Don't need to dig it up, because...Youtube. Thx!
I have become an Alma Deutscher fan. She is our century’s genius: composer, pianist, violinist, orchestrator par excellence!
Grabbing some of the artist you mentioned to see if i like it enough to collect more.
