David Oistrakh - Bruch & Hindemith Violin Concertos Redux II
Listen just to the last few bars of the Introduction to Bruch's Fantasia -- the physical sense of Oistrakh's ineffably beautiful tone is palpable. The performances themselves are superlative -- Jascha Horenstein leads the London Symphony in a detailed accompaniment for Oistrakh's expressive performance of Bruch's Fantasia, and Paul Hindemith himself leads the LSO in an aggressive accompaniment for Oistrakh's muscular performance of his own concerto -- but anyone with the slightest interest in the art of recording and remastering owes it to himself to hear this new Redux Series 2nd remastering.
