Rating: - Superb!
I will join the throng of positive reviews for this outstanding bargain CD.
I own/have owned numerous performances of the magisterial Brahms Violin Concerto but have never been satisfied with any of them, including Heifetz/Reiner (actually, ESPECIALLY Heifetz/Reiner!).

Rating: - A superlative Tchaikovsky
I bought Milstein's rendition of the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto in 1967--I believe it was produced by Capitol Records.

Rating: - It has no equal
The availability of this CD phenomenon with a $3.98 price should be shouted from the rooftops.

It doesn't get any better than this, ever!

HEIFETZ & REINER HAVE BEEN DETHRONED!
Having beaten back great artists in recent years such as Vengerov and Shaham, it hardly seemed possible that there were two old recordings by Nathan Milstein (which must have skipped ... Read More
