Undeniably the reigning virtuoso of the violin, Perlman enjoys superstar status rarely afforded a classical musician.

In January of 2009, Mr. Perlman was honored to take part in the Inauguration of President Barack Obama, premiering a piece written for the occasion by John Williams and performing with clarinetist Anthony McGill, pianist Gabriela Montero, and cellist Yo-Yo Ma. In December of 2003 the John F.

He proudly possesses four Emmy Awards and fifteen Grammy awards. He performed at the 2006 Academy Awards and at the Juilliard School Centennial gala, broadcast nationally on Live from Lincoln Center. One of Mr. Perlman’s proudest achievements is his collaboration with film score composer John Williams in Steven Spielberg’s Academy Award winning film Schindler’s List, in which he performed the violin solos. "Perlman...presents a personality performance, one which naturally brings out the individuality of his artistry. So the momentary hesitations in the bird noises have the finesse of a great artist to make them more compelling, and on balance Perlman's style of phrasing is a degree freer and more overtly expressive than Galway's [version for flute], except that for a movement like the central Adagio of "Summer" he adopts a deliberately simple style, stilling his vibrato. There is flair too in the quirky contrasts between the alternating sections of the first movement of that concerto, and generally contrasts of all kinds are heightened. The LPO strings play with great refinement, and with a rather more intimate acoustic than to the other versions, the result is both in scale and sharply defined." - from the original February 1976 review by Edward Greenfield, Gramophone
