Magistral Interpretación del Fabuloso Violinista Louis Kaufman ; su ejecución del Concierto para Violín y Orquesta es Super fabulosa ; interpretando la Obra Maestra con un Nivel Exoresivo impresionante ; unido a un excelente y hermoso sonido . Gracias por compartir tan Magistral Grabacion del Excepcional ViOLINISTA.
Many thanks otterhouse. I'd not known of this recording. It's a great pleasure, and is making my morning. I especially enjoy performances with lots of personality, like this one---as distinctive as a singer's voice. Lovely transfer, btw. Good luck with the diss!
Musicweb-international wrote about this recording: "Kaufman’s Mendelssohn, with Otto Ackermann and the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra, is virile and ripe. His characteristic fast impulse vibrato is almost brazenly audible in the close-up recording, and the temperature is Romantic Plus throughout. There are some luscious Kreisleresque slides and so, too, the endemic warmth and communicative élan that Kaufman always generated. I don’t know a single recording of his where his commitment flagged. The fervid tone that illuminates the slow movement is part of his expressive arsenal though it does come at the cost of some phrasal relaxation. The finale is dancing, spry, and not exaggeratedly fast."
Thanks! PhD thesis consumes much of my time :-) My record player is also in temporary retirement, have to assemble it again. But could not resist uploading this one. Was originally on an other channel, but with the wrong EQ settings and not declicked. Was surprised how well it sounded after downloading and re-uploading...

Really beautiful soulful playing from a master. Kaufman has what is sadly missing from today's digiticians. Eric Shumsky
