since he had such rock solid technique and flawless intonation, and was praised to the skies by Bartok and Prokofiev, among others, for his performances of their music (and neither was exactly lightness and sunshine when it came to evaluating other musicians).
He made a few painful stereo records at the very end, and was struggling by the early 1950s, obscuring his earlier glories. Milstein called his 1942 live recording of the Kreutzer Sonata with Bartok the best ever.
