Music reviews of Efrem Zimbalist Plays Brahms
Music Review: You won't find a better recording of these two pieces.
Rating: 5 Stars
Zimbalist is second only to Itzhak Perlman in my book, and his performances here certainly do not disappoint. His mastery of technique is breathtaking, as is his level of feeling. These are historic recordings: the Concerto for Violin & Orchestra is a recording of a live radio performance from 1946, complete with the announcer's intro and outro (which I thought was a nice touch). The Sonata for Violin & Piano No. 3 (which is one of my all-time favorite Brahms compositions) is absolutely beautiful and was recorded in 1930. The remastering and restoration is excellent, for the most part. However (and this is strange), the 1930 recording sounds better and crisper than the 1946 recording, which has some heavy surface noise in spots (but certainly not enough to detract from your sheer enjoyment of the music). All in all, I've never heard better performances of these two pieces, making this disc a must-have.
