Forgive me for the following rant: What is wrong with modern violinists? Why must they seek to make every piece pleasant, robbing pieces like this from the despair and misery they seek to evoke? Oistrakh's performance has brought me to tears and no other recording of this pieces has done that before.
Tuve el honor de conocer y asistir a algunos conciertos de David Oistrtakh en Buenos Aires,en1954.Siendo yo muy joven,me desesperaba por conocerlo.Vino a un Festival de cine,junto con Vladimir Yampolsky.Era imposible llegar a él.Lo esperé a la salida de su hotel.Caminando tras ellos,silbé el Concierto de Tschaikowsky.Él se dió vuelta.Allí comenzó mi relación con él.! Pasaron los años.en 1974 en un recital de Elissó Virsaladze,me entero de su muerte en Amsterdam.Lo anuncié.Un minuto en su honor.
@mysticmansion555 Not of course! it should be 1.343.093.345 likes, 0 dislikes, it is unbelievable that Hilary Hahn peformance of this concerto has much more visits than this one!
@eeuzzy There certainly is a lot of sarcasm and 'sarcasm in repetition' but there's a lot of depth there. It didn't click for me right away. anyway...
@GraniteQuarrier every time I read comments about Shostakovich`s music in official books I get really angry, they always talk about the less important aspects about his music, politics, sarcasm... why they don`t talk about his incredible melodies and harmonies?, why they don`t mention the depth of his music and that he made the orchestra sounds like nobody else?...

it appears that he re wrote them for his playing doesn't even sound like some other violinists, and this is unworldly.
