A mature and outstanding performance that blends exquisite structural beauty with emotion.
The performance fuses the violin's flowing melody with the rich sound of the orchestra. Milstein's technique and lyricism and Jochum's stable conducting mesh at a high level, highlighting the structural beauty of the work.
This performance exquisitely combines technique and composure. Milstein's violin is exceptionally clear, moving smoothly without distortion even in fast passages. The sound weaves like a story when played softly, and emits a solid resonance when played loudly. Jochum and the Vienna Philharmonic create a soft, supportive sound without losing its depth, with the rich layering of the strings in particular adding depth to the sound. Improvisation-like fluctuations are kept to a minimum, and the overall performance maintains a clear structure while also exuding emotion. The phrases end with a sense of ease, allowing the music to flow into the next, allowing the dialogue between the soloist and orchestra to sound natural. A quiet interpretation that avoids excess, this performance stands out as a masterful and insightful performance that gently conveys the passion hidden within the piece.
