precioso

It may be a little more con moto than assai, but this is not an adagio and the music should be fleeting, it should vanish before you have had enough of it. Heifetz has an ability to float the tone over the orchestra until it is nothing more than air, the memory of what was, just out of your grasp. Beautiful.

it's a bit slow
-
COOL!!!
-
As it happens at least one recording by the original soloist, Robert Soetens, survives, and since it dates from shortly after the premiere, perhaps it demonstrates the tempo Prokofiev intended for this movement. Personally i think Heifetz got it right, at least in his Boston recording with Koussevitsky. Think of WH Auden's poem "Out on the lawn i lie in bed......" But this one is fascinating.

The most sensitive touch - utterly mesmerizing. So lyrical. Just beautiful.

This is one of my favorite pieces/interpretations of all!
-
How Beautiful! ...such a slow, peaceful interpretation. No rush... Expanding the sounds to reach not only the senses but the mind. Nonetheless the passion is nearly no lost. ...and the pain is there. Wonderful!!

so what?
expand your cultural frame of reference, sister!
