Joachim, der das Beethoven’sche Violin-Concert und die bekannte Othello-Phantasie von Ernst vortrug, lernte unser Publikum einen Künstler von bedeutendem Talent und der solidesten Kunstrichtung kennen. Die Bemerkung, daß derselbe das großartige Beethovensche Concert — ein Werk, für das sich in mehr denn einer Beziehung wohl der Name Concert-Symphonie eignen möchte — in vortrefflicher Auffassung und sicherer Haltung mit Geschmack, mit Geist und Gefühl ausführte, zeigt den Standpunct dieses Künstlers zur Genüge an und macht jede weitere Erörterung überflüssig. Der laute Beifall aller Anwesenden, dessen er sich zu erfreuen hatte, war nur eine gerechte Anerkennung der ausgezeichneten Leistung —” Ref

The Scottish Fantasy was dedicated to Sarasate. Bruch felt that Joachim played poorly, and wrote “He calls Sarasate a clown, and makes fun of our relationship. It was exactly Joachim’s untrustworthiness and partisanship which drove me directly into Sarasate’s arms. Sarasate cares about modern works, because he has respect for them … Joachim takes no interest in them (apart from Brahms’ works), and plays them half-heartedly, and with inadequate technique, doing them more harm than good.” Christopher Fifield, Max Bruch: His Life and Works (London: Victor Gollancz, 1988; repr.
