Given that, yes, I'm surprised that Todd hasn't chimed in. The Prokofiev 2 is my favorite violin concerto too.
Temirkanov is not the most exciting conductor I know of however - he's generally OK though. I've seen him conduct the SPPO a couple of times in Davies (they seem to tour every couple of years), and the only thing I remember about either of those concerts is that the guest soloist for one of them, J-Fi, played the Beethoven Concerto very well! ;-)
