In Reply to: Second the Milstein. posted by jimbill on October 30, 2015 at 09:09:26:
He ironically is afforded a better sense of hall than Grumiaux, and Szeryng gets my toe tapping in a way that Grumiaux does not, even though Szeryng is a bit slower overall.
I had a DGG Italy box set of the Milstein but sold it. Will definitely give it another listen when I stumble across a set again. Milstein happens to be Norman Lebrecht's favorite as well.

- Ha. Lebrecht turned me on to Toscanini's studio La Mer, which I love; I've kept an eye out for his rec's ever since. - jdaniel@jps.net 09:08:42 10/31/15 (0)
