Well,Ruggiero Ricci playing was mostly great, but it's true sometimes he
was "disengaged" because most times he played drunk. If he would played a
two violin concerti together with Szering,the whole auditorium could became
drunk. I knew a person who was close to Szeryng,and she tell me he drinks
a whole scotch whisky glass before playing(but he was drinking a lot before
that glass).Anyway i don't care,he was great.
