. . . I'd say that Lisa's earlier recordings are realistically balanced (i.e., without the violin overbalanced in the texture) - these recordings are much more realistic than the balance which, for instance, Heifetz demanded (and usually received from RCA). As I've said before, Heifetz's Beethoven Sonata set sounds like his pianist is in the next room! Sometimes, when we hear a more realistic balance, it may seem for a while as if the violinist in question is not playing with a BIG TONE.
