Fine playing no doubt, but I have yet to hear anyone better than Oistrakh (with Ormandy/Philadelphia) for sheer majesty & technical brilliance. And no-one who throws in a truly magical trill in harmonics as Oistrakh does (5:11) with Ormandy. (Never heard before or since). Oistrakh does try in a live performance (at 4:50) with Rozhdestvensky/Moscow PO, but fails to make it stick!
Neveu also takes this 3rd movement on the leisurely side. This is no polar bear dancing, just trotting to the shops!

Perhaps She and Christian Ferras were among the very best

Oud goud! Let eensw op haat kleine, maar o zo warme toon. Nerveus en gespannen tot het laatet moment, fragiel en toch stevig, een wonder om te zien en te horen. Geen groot gebaar maar grootse mziek!

dear friend,
as a jew i would ask you to keep the topic out of that competition, there are enough cases when it was real anti-semitism. let's not degrade the importance of the topic through associating every problem a jew has, with it..
Ginette is one of the most stunning violinists of the past century let's not underestimate her..

@Oistrakhfollower I don't believe neveu is inferior to oistrakh in any way. they are both fantastic players, but very very different. tough call.

@MrDouglasfairbanks You're mad!!!!

Cause she's a better violinist! Just compare the two recordings - she's a lot more intense
very sad that she died so young!

A late friend of mine actually played viola in the orchestra when she made this recording.He told me it was a typical heavy London fog that day.He thought she was absolutely fantastic,a wonderful player.
