From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

RE: Have found this vln brightness listening through headphones, and on speakers . . .

So we hear differently. I see the 1:30 and 2:30 violin sound you've mentioned within normal recording variations, as least, they don't bother me.

While they don't bother me, I don't consider that is a top recording. I found Haitink's has a better string sound and I can hear more details in the performance.

I see audio listening a compromised but already very satisfying thing. Recording and mastering always re-shape the original sound but I found the engineers usually have sharp ears and most of them do know their job. The better I tune my system, the more I hear from the recordings. I use Pass amps with McIntosh speakers which has 23 tweeters on one side, the violin sound is pretty good to me, most of the time.
