Violinist Nathan Milstein is accompanied by pianist Georges Pludermacher for this recital of music by Beethoven, J.S. Bach, Handel, Prokofiev, Tchaikovsky & more.

"What most astonished was the sheer facility of the 82-year-old violinist’s playing; its agility, quick reflexes and tonal lustre... it is without doubt the pre-eminent recorded example of a great violinist giving of his best in old age. The Kreutzer Sonata is dapper, suave and tirelessly athletic: the first movement’s central development has real drama and temperament, the variations have plenty of colourful incident and the finale gallops along energetically. The Handel Sonata is cool and tastefully moulded; the Bach Chaconne, endlessly resourceful and superbly built. This is very much the Milstein of old – a highly cultivated artist and a supremely accomplished violinist. The sound is admirably clear." – Gramophone

Superb Last Recital

This is the last Milstein’s recital at age 82. It’s amazing he has the nimble agility to play these pieces at a high level of musicianship at that age. I have collected Milstein’s records for a long time starting with his collaboration at Capitol Records. I am sure you are aware it cost a bit of money now to own those records in the used market. This LP will one day be a collector item. The pressing at Pallas in Germany is quiet which is essential for a violin recital. The record company did a great job with the record sleeves and presentation packaging.
