He was the soloist in the Oscar-winning soundtrack of the film Fiddler on the Roof. His pioneering 1979 trip to China, as an official guest of the government, was immortalised in the film From Mao to Mozart, which won an Oscar for best documentary, Child prodigy Russian-born, Isaac Stern was brought to the United States as a baby.

He was 81. "Stern did pass away today," said Maria Dolce, an administrator at New York Hospital - Cornell Medical Center. During more than half a century as a professional musician, Stern appeared on concert stages around the world and served as a mentor to many young musicians. Born in Kreminiecz, Ukraine in 1920, he came to the United States at 10 months of age after his parents fled the Russian Revolution in 1921. Raised in San Francisco, he began playing the violin at the age of eight and made his recital debut at 13. His orchestral debut came three years later, in 1936, with a performance of the Brahms Violin Concerto with the San Francisco Symphony. At 22, he debuted at Carnegie Hall.

Violinist Isaac Stern, Dead At 81 violinist isaac stern, Dead at 81 Steven I. Weiss "Music is for me a constant wonderment anda constant search." isaac stern was not a typical musician. http://www.yucommentator.com/v66i3/culture/stern.shtml
Extractions: "Music is for me a constant wonderment anda constant search." Isaac Stern was not a typical musician. His styling was instantly recognized as something new and different though initially unappreciated when he hit the New York scene. Stern credited his formative violin education to Naoum Blinder, his teacher at the San Francisco conservatory, admiring Blinder's emphasis upon musical instinct in place of standard musical drilling in scales and the like. Stern, who grew up in San Francisco after having spent his first year of life in the Ukraine, made his New York debut in 1937, at the age of seventeen, and was instantly rebuffed by leading critics. However, his return the following year was considered an unqualified success and solidified his position as a preeminent violinist despite the fact that, as Stern himself noted, "maybe I didn't even play as well [the second time]." Clearly marking his path for fame, Stern enlisted the services of Sol Hurok, a focused agent who soon helped Stern become one of the busiest men in the music business. In one seven-month stretch in 1949, Stern played 120 concerts on three continents. Hurok once told the New York Times that "Stern is a man who cannot rest," and, indeed, Stern was not one to be caught acting idly, even when he wasn't on one of his whirlwind musical tours. Crusading for arts causes, Stern earned some of his most significant notoriety for his philanthropically-centered work ethic. He championed Carnegie Hall when it was facing take-over by developers, forcing legislation that brought the concert hall into New York City's possession and becoming the first president of the Carnegie Hall Corporation, remaining in the position until his death this past Saturday. The National Endowment for the Arts also owes its existence to Stern, who assumed an a advisory during its creation in the 1960's and appearing before Congress in the 1970's to protest potential cuts in art funding.

Extractions: Ananova: Violinist Isaac Stern dies Isaac Stern, the master violinist who saved Carnegie Hall from the bulldozers, has died at 81. Stern, one of the last great violinists of his generation, died of heart failure in New York. He was one of the most recorded classical musicians in history, making well over 100 recordings. He had suffered from heart disease for several years and had been in and out of the hospital for the past six weeks, said Carnegie Hall chairman Sandy Weill. "Isaac was far more than a musician. He was a person who was outstanding in everything, whether thinking about politics, or business, or as a humanitarian," Weill said. Stern played well over 175 performances by the late 1990s at Carnegie Hall, America's musical temple renowned for its acoustics. He leaves a wife, Linda Reynolds Stern, whom he married in 1996; three children from a previous marriage, daughter Shira, a rabbi, and sons Michael and David, both conductors; and five grandchildren.
