In Reply to: Since you've been doing the download thing for awhile, anyone surpass Heifetz in the Brahms and Tchaikovsky posted by jdaniel@jps.net on November 19, 2016 at 11:51:25:
Basically, what I was saying was that, beyond a certain threshold of accomplishment, I'm uncomfortable in claiming one performance surpasses another. So although I'm certainly not going to denigrate the famous Heifetz/Reiner recording (nor the Oistrakh recordings which JM loves), all I can say is that there are other recorded performances, with other points of view, which I believe are also worthy of listeners' attention. Tops on my list would be Lisa's recording, which has some unusual features, such as her use of the Busoni cadenza in the first movement (rather than Joachim's or Kreisler's), and her use of Joachim's violin - the instrument which was used for the first performance of the Concerto!
I first posted about this recording here on AA, and my more extended comments are now on Amazon at the link below.
