amazing genius icon i adore since childhood

Leonid Kogan, my lyubimi skripatch, obviously gets a lot of attention here, but let's also take a moment to thank Niccolo Paganini for this bliss of a composition.

I think this is the best recording. It's slightly bouncier and more colourful overall, I feel, than most of the other recordings. Even though there aren't as many recordings of the Pagannini Concerti as there should be.

Listen to his version of Waxman's "Carmen Fantasy." It's staggering.

@assindiastignani Kohan's Waxman "Carmen Fantasy" is yet another testament to how incredibly amazing he is, and yet somehow, this is even better

@assindiastignani meant to say *Kogan

[theViolinDreamer]

The chain of double-stop+ricoche passages starting at 0:51 will always be my favorite part of this concert!

[themusicdr]

it is just superb i agree

[Rinhos]

@theViolinDreamer and also the most difficult!

[BeYoNDeR1116]

@Rinhos it isn't most difficult passage.. did you hear the cadenza ? cadenza is part of this concert too.. and its amazingly difficult ..

[themusicdr]

superb - also check out his waxman carmen on YT. there is a studio and live version

[petrof4056]

better of the first part

Leonid Kogan have rendered honour-play on Paganini's violin...

It plays phenomenally
