I took a chance and purchased a cd by Giora Schmidt a couple days ago.  I hadn’t heard of this violinist but I just love the cd!    It is Giora on violin with Rohan De Silva on piano with a selection of music including Vivaldi’s sonata in a major, Manuel De Falla Suite Populaire Espagnole, Philip Lasser’s Vocalise, Cesar Franck’s Sonata in A Major and Henryk Wienawski’s Polonaise Brillante3.   Looking for some info on Giora I see quites such as “Perlman in his Prime” and “one of the most commanding young artists on the stage today.”   He has studied under Itzhak Perlman at the Julliard Pre College and then at Julliard where he also studied with Dorothy DeLay.
