Just fabulous! Every time you put out a new piece you give me a revelation. For example Christian Ferras, who Sibelius is one of my favorites, I never listened to his Beethoven, but naturally would have checked out the Karajan recording because its what Tidel has 20 versions off. But this one with Sargent is a clear gem!
I don’t know if you have an idea of what you will do after this monolith of a project, but I would love a best and worst of great artist. Like Karajan or Ferras what they did that was a revelation and what seems not quite strong. Thanks for all your time and thoughtfulness! The musical journalism I admire the most.
Thank you, Brian! I appreciate your kind words and encouragement. Funny you mention doing some spotlights on the artists, a few days ago I had the same thought. Ferras in particular was a fascinating, tragic figure. The current project feels endless, but I really like that idea. Thanks again!
John, I really compliment you for entering an essential Version of such an immense masterpice with so many wonderful available versions from every era! And more, I Absolutely agree! What an immense, powerfull and magic interpretation of Oistrach this is. And I also agree with what you say later about Gluzman version. I also discov ered him casually listening to his Tchaikovsky and was love at the first hearing.
