Violinist Nathan Milstein is backed by The Concert Arts Orchestra conducted by Walter Susskind for this recording of Violin & Orchestra masterpieces by Mozart, Beethoven, Wieniawski, Novacek, Stravinsky, & Saint-Saens.

Milstein Masterpieces has, since its 1st release in 1960, been a favourite among connoisseurs of violin recordings & classical music aficionados generally. Rare, premium condition LP copies command in excess of $500 on the pre-owned market, & to this day remain highly desirable & collectible.

   

Nathan Milstein's American debut with the Philadelphia Orchestra in 1929 served notice throughout the nation that a young artist of special consequence had arrived. He was 25 that season, already a veteran of the European concert stage, and accolades. Master classes with Auer and Ysaye readied Milstein for a stellar career.
   
"The double-stopping of the big theme in the Wieniawski & the audible bouncing of the bow in the lightning-quick passages of the Saint-Saëns show Milstein at his best. The Stravinsky is presumably based on the composer’s own arrangement for violin & piano (made with Dushkin), the violin taking not only the melody originally given to the bassoon but all the other phrases that could conceivably be regarded as melody. Here the orchestral part appears to be more than a restoration of the 1919 scoring with fuller woodwind added, conceivably owing something to the original 1911 scoring. In any case no one is likely to worry overmuch about the ancestry of what here becomes a delightful occasional piece, warmly performed..."
