Victor Poster : Erika Morini plays

Erika Morini was an Austrian-American violinist who was active during the 20th century. She was born in Vienna, Austria, in 1902 and began her career as a child prodigy, giving her first public concert at the age of 5. She studied at the Vienna Conservatory with Otakar Ševčík, one of the most prominent violin teachers of the time, and made her professional debut at the age of 12.

In the 1920s and 1930s, Morini performed throughout Europe and the United States, and was considered one of the leading violinists of her time. She was particularly known for her performances of the works of Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, and Mozart. She also performed with many of the world's leading orchestras, such as the New York Philharmonic, the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

Erika Morini emigrated to the United States in 1939, following the annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany. She continued to perform and teach throughout her career, and passed away in 1995 in New York City.
