This Shostakovich concerto is astonishing. I've played some part of it (the slow movement!). It's tonal music, but uses the full color of the 12 tones. I'll take this over truly atonal music, any day of the week!

This is the scariest version of this piece I've heard so far. Yes, that's a good thing!

Oh yeah right Kondrashin^^
-
Kondrachine for me^^

Oh, I think it's Kondrashin... or Svetlanov...?

Alright. Who is the conductor?? Shostakovich? Khachaturian? Rodzhestvensky? Temirkanov? Kondrashin? Svetlanov? ... ??

Absolutely truly

I can't get over this.
Amazing.

This is probably one of my favorite pieces of music. The third movement is one of the most sorrowful things I've ever heard, then it moves into something entirely frightening in the fourth.

So... fucking... GOOD.
I like the way Kogan just plays - he doesnt go overboard with body movements and facial contortions.

well...Heifetz is Heifetz of course. Still I would like to see that 5-dollar violin. I know from my little personal experience how frustrating and disheartening it can be - playing a crap fiddle, have to do it too often myself while teaching. Believe me, it's a torture. It's like you're made to make love to an ugly woman. Yak.
