That Decca box includes the Brahms and Tchaikovsky concertos. The Brahms in particular is one of the best ever imho. Franz Konwitschny was a great German conductor influenced by Furtwangler (whom he played under) but whose career was sadly marred by alcoholism (his players nicknamed him "Konwhiskey"). Very underrated, I think.
If he was a hot babe and this was a high-def multi-channel download, Chris from Lafayette would be all over it.
Actually, I own the ffrr of that recording, as well as 2 other recordings of Oistrakh playing the Brahms and 2 others of him playing the Tchaikovsky. My comment was specifically on the Mozart.
I suppose that John selected that passage of the Mozart specifically to illustrate the audio of the orchestra. My problem is staying awake through a minute of Mozart.

If "Life without music is a mistake", then life without Mozart's music is a profound mistake. Try to stay awake -- it's worth it.
