Do you really find his technique in this recording so clean and impeccable? I notice many intonation problems that are certainly not due to old recording. Some "runs" are not clear at all, and he has some problems with his bow as well. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Seeing as how Joachim and many other violinist from this era tuned to something like A=420 or 415, doesn't it stand to reason that this recording is being played a hair too fast? I think it's obvious near the ending that this is sped up a bit.
It's not quite ready yet. (85% or so) I used to be able to play it, and I have just recently re-learned it. I'll try and have it ready within the next few weeks.

Some of the "intonation problems" stomentendo mentions could well be caused by this ridculous tempo he adopts.
