Musicians Aaron Rosand and Mordecai Shehori accused Stern of trying to destroy their careers over many years.

Louis Persinger[edit]

We need information about his studies with Louis Persinger. JackofOz 10:01, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jack. Persinger is mentioned in the article. What would you like to add? gidonb 03:12, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Belated thanks. I guess that's about it, really. My work here is done now. JackofOz 04:01, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We prefer fantasy over real accomplishment[edit]

How sad Isaac Stern gets a few short paragraphs and Luke Skywalker gets pages and pages and pages and pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.181.189.193 (talk) 04:03, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see your point! There is much more output from Mr Stern out there on vinyl, mp3, video, You Tube etc etc - what is here is concise, to the point and encyclopaedic, tells me what I need to know and I will go to other sources to hear the man play. It is not sad at all, there is space for all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.113.244.1 (talk) 14:31, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Polish?[edit]

The lede says he was a Polish Jew. But the text says he was born in Ukrainian Russia, and that locality became part of Poland only 2 years after he was born. On what basis was he Polish? -- Jack of Oz ^[Talk] 12:13, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Poland reestablished its borders through armed struggle after World War One. It was occupied by the neighbouring empires for a hundred years. However, Poles living in the Russian Partition were never Russian... which includes the Jewish communities of these two nations as well. Usually the historical sources tell us about the identity of specific individuals born under foreign occupation. Haaretz Daily Newspaper writes on Nov.01, 2012 in the news brief called "New Tel Aviv street to honor Isaac Stern," quote: "Polish-born Stern, whose family moved to the United States when he was 14..." based probably on what Stern himself knew.[1] — Poeticbent talk 14:42, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, "Polish" is an ethnicity here, not citizenship - if his family spoke Polish and were Poles that happened to live in Ukraine, they are still Polish. HammerFilmFan (talk) 17:33, 19 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

According to Census records in 1930, they had "Russia" as place of birth for Isaac, his mother and father and "Russian" as native language for all three. So it seems unlikely they identified as Polish. —Мандичка^YO 😜 02:13, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
