Schlomo Mintz Plays Sibelius Movement 1 Part 2

Except for James Ehnes, Schlomo Mintz may well be the best living violinist and this recording will prove it. I downloaded a fragment of his recording of the Dvorak back from the napster days and started to look for this cd, I looked for a long time and after about 2 years I finally got it on ebay and was stunned to hear how good the sibelius was.

Some shmuck on amazon didnt rate this recording very highly but I love it, probabaly the best ive heard next to shaham and j. stikovetsky. Its a shame kogan or rabin didnt record it but if they did i think it would sound like this: full of color and completely effortless technique. Yes this was recorded by dg, so the sound quality is amazing, why dg dropped mintz and kept mutter makes no sense to me at all ill never know why they did this but mr mintz is back and still making recordings, i am anxious to get his mozart disks he just did. Someone on you tube put up one of this mozart recordings also check out the videos of mintz playing paganini caprices, paganini concerto with paganinis violin and vieuxtemps concerto 5, truly stellar playing! I would also like to recommend someone put up shaham video of the sibelius, make sure to check them all out!

I have uploaded rare out of print and unreleased recordings that are difficult to find, I hope you like them.

Since they are so difficult to find no one should mind me uploading them, if you have issues with me uploading them please send me a message and I will remove them.
