[abburidotakaria]

that's because nathan milstein never played a piece the same way for each performance... He was a genius that always experimented and was never boring

[urujumu]

the best interpretation of this concerto...

[jbjviola]

There are only men in the orchestra. Chicago Symphony in the 1960s.

@uffizzi19 look at oistakhs

[uffizzi19]

this is the best i heard ever...and heifetz version's

[symfotroll]

@milstein91 well, of course.

[milstein91]

@symfotroll you need to have a very good technique to play well the 2 mvt and those are sometimes the most difficult to play.

[3intelligents]

GGGG......Great !

[thesilvershining]

Wow, love love love his playing at 1:13-1:37. So many violinists take this passage way too fast and it loses the otherworldly beauty Tchaikovsky intended.

[poseuresque]

well put. heifetz makes this sound so cold. but in a way, i think it's amazing what he did with the 2nd mvmt. i've never heard anything like it. the same goes with this

[captainears]

Wait...what?

[symfotroll]

You "feel" Heifetz's technique? LOL In the second bloody movement? So what "technique" is that?
