I have the Oistrakh and Heifetz, but not the Ferras. Both have excellent stereo sound for their day (1959 and 1960, respectively), but for me, the Oistrakh, with Ormandy on Columbia, has too much stereo separation and loses its cohesiveness. Both have the soloist well in front of the orchestra, of course.
Both spectacular performances, though.

Wikomirska's Szymanowski VC #1: white hot. The Polish pressing more immediate than the British Aurora. nt - jdaniel@jps.net 08:12:06 07/21/14 (1)
