I had to cut it because the file was too big. The second part is here:
• David Oistrakh plays T...
The audio quality is suprisingly clear
This performance has been published on CD, and the audio quality is even far better!
Better than maxim vengerov's by a lot
Aasser Elzoghby I also Prefer Oistrakh version, but when it comes to who the best is, it's subjective.
@@dannyboy2267 I meant the quality
Maxim vengerov's recording had a very loud tssssssssssss sound you know
Itzhak had a very good sound quality as well
@@aasserelzoghby6781 Oh . . . Sorry for the misunderstanding.
That's what I like about UA-cam: great footage gets immortalized and shared for the whole world to see. This concerto is truly a masterpiece.
UA-cam is a blessing for letting us hear this...
@@ullakorpi-anttila88Así ES...,"Yotube"...,¡GRACIAS por EXISTIR!...,¡GRACIAS,a SUS creadores!...😊❤
@@MLaval-qo7en Thanks - with UA-cam we may listen to the greatest music, composers and musicians: and exchange views - I love everything David Oistrakh (King of Violinists) plays and conducts. This video is one of my favourites - besides hearing, also watching him play, is so very enjoyable. Another version of the Tchaikovsky concerto: Tchaikovsky - Violin Concerto - Oistrakh/Ormandy/Philadelphia - Eugen Ormandy, also the most brilliant conductor as well as the orchestra. David Oistrakh has also recorded Sibelius' and Mendelssohn's concertos with Ormandy and Philadelphia - they are, in my opinion, outstanding. The Mendelssohn concerto he also plays with Kirill Kondrashin and USSR State Orchestra - I love that version of Mendelssohn even more...
Performed and recorded in Moscow 1968
David Oistrakh: 30 September 1908 (Odessa) - 24 October 1974 (Amsterdam)
Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra
Gennady Rozhdestvensky
No so old by today’s standards. Pity
He died where I live what
thank you
I love Oistrakh.
Oistrakh's sound is "the violin" for me. I just love his play......
Best recording ever. Fell in love with it over 50 years ago. Never gets old.
Brian Ripley same without me
And me.
Same. Probably 40 years ago for me when I was a kid. My parents had this same live recording on vinyl and I nearly wore out the record! Recognise it’s the same recording we had due to the fluffed harmonic at 11:51! He was my main inspiration for becoming a professional violinist and still my favourite player of all time!
My absolute all time favorite version of Tchaikovsky Concerto.
Best performance ever of this piece.
agreed
I sort of like itzhak perlman's version, however both are great
Jascha from far mon ami
Perlman is divine too on this one.
Bar none!
I am compelled to mention that, originally hearing Heifetz's interpretation of this concerto, I was so awestruck. However, upon listening to Oistrakh play Tchaikovsky's composition in this video, it had a distinguishable feel and tone. I find it marvelous how different people could make the same piece of music sound so different. Collectively, I just prefer this rendition over Heifetz's.
I would not care to make a judgment as to the superiority of one over the other until I could hear each recorded in the same room with the same orchestra, same conductor, same microphones and the same electronic equipment - which now is impossible. Clearly, the Oistrakh recording - as a recording technically - is far superior to that of Heifetz.
Two simple words: me too. Oistrakh's musicallity is by far a major issue.
Quite agree. We are lucky to have both, and I wouldn't wish to state a preference ... they are both totally convincing.
LLP LLP koop loop no annal I'm
hmm personally I prefer Heifetz's rendition about this but it all sounds good!
Heiftez for technique, Oistrach for emotion. Both equally grand performances to be enjoyed.
Tchaikovsky to be thanked for such an inspirational piece of music.
Sono d'accordo
Verissimo!
Very well put.
Oh no. Another sheep who thinks Heifetz isn't emotional.
@@deenibeeniable Another commentator that feels the need to insult, when an opinion doesn't align with his.
In my opinion the best interpretation of this concerto. His understanding of the composer's musical language, the brilliance of the violin playing coupled with musical eloquence and not to mention the amazing warmth and clarity of sound that Oistrakh produced - even whilst playing the most virtuosic passages - makes this performance really stand out.
They were fully right when they said he was the best performer of Tchaikovsky's concert. It is just amazing, I can't stop listening to it. The concert is already awesome and perfect, but Oistrakh took it to another level.
I totally agree. I've listened to Perlman, Midori, Chang, Heifetz, and this wonderful man. Though they are all mind-blowing-ly fantastic, and each slightly unique, Oistrakh is still my absolute favourite performer for this piece.
Прямо всю душу вынимает! Я счастлива, что есть эти записи, и можно слушать это божественное исполнение. Гениальная музыка
I think seldom a musician could reach such a high degree of virtuosity as David Oistrakh. Thanks for sharing!
I love it!
I do agree ! genius !
Хорошо, что сохранились записи таких гигантов старой классической музыкальной школы как Ойстрах, Рождественский. Чайковский звучит в их исполнении как бесценная антикварная картина и очень по-русски.
WTF! it's just the best violin sound i've ever heard, it's just beautiful, his articulation is so exact and he takes care about every note he plays T.T beautiful!!!
my favorite rendition.
so heavy like the true russian style that tchaikovsky intended.
This recording feels so nostalgic, especially paired with comments over a decade old
The end of this is like a Paganini caprice.
+TruthSurge, not a bad analogy. The Chaikovskiy ending you reference is clearly patterned after folk dances.
+Ramón G Castañeda 11:38 is exactly from a Paganini caprice. I just forget which. Going down chromatically (1 half step at a time) using 2 notes. Or at least it's similar in that regard. Prob not the same interval or notes. And those fast major arpeggios going up and back down in successively longer arps is also the end of Caprice 24, I believe. So, those folks weren't doing much dancing to free time arpeggios, I'd guess. Standing still and listening probably. :)
I think it's Caprice 13 The devil's chuckle
Yeh
@@TruthSurge this "descending glissando" motif is used in many violin pieces, Paganini was probably one of the first composers to use it, but it's not only his. Sarasate, Wieniawski, Tchaikovsky, even Saint-Saens used it in their violin pieces.
This has got to be the richest and most lovely sound I have every heard from a violin.... wow this guy is almost amazing. closest i've every gotten to crying from music.
Who is best doesn't matter to me. When I first began to love the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto it was introduced to me by David Oistrakh and he will always be special to me. It brings back great memories!
I haven't heard any other violinist play this better than Oistrakh. Breathtaking!
I like how he doesn't just show off, but really shows the amazing musicality of this concerto
This is exquisite. So free yet completely complimentary to the score. This man’s great artistry and humanity comes through in every note.
Rhostesvensky’s conducting is, as it always was, a perfect match.
I've listened to other talented violinists, but David Oistrakh is by far the Best. I wish I could listen to him playing in person. Sad there is no one this gifted now days
We are fortunate to have this. Considering the poor quality of the video, the sound is really good and the performance is among the very best.
Just beautiful. Great privilege to have a chance to listen to this magnificent performance by an amazing violinist.
The beauty of spelling out every presious detail in a so romantic and emotional way. That is/was Oistrakh's force. Long live the king of violinists.
As a young guy I saw him perform this work in London. Despite the passing of the years, I have never forgotten it.
genius!!!! One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written and performed flawlessly by the great Oistrakh! Thank you so much for posting, tis a true masterpiece!
First heard David Oistrakh at Cornell in 1960 when he came through a real snowstorm to perform this piece. Loved it then - great to hear it again!
Mind boggling performance by master David Oistrackh of this Tchaikovsky's masterpiece.
Just sit,listen,and enjoy it.
King David!!!! Thank to God we have him as the greatest violinist.
I have to tell you: i allways check this video. I specially admire this recording of the Tchaikowsky, Oistrakh has such a beautiful and warm sound...
He owns the Tchaikovsky with more passion than anyone.
Came here from two set violin, totally worth it ;"
Same I really want them to make a video just fort his song. They play it perfectly
"Just for this" Lol typo
yes indeed.. beside Brett will be doing it if their subs drop 2 M
Can’t wait to hear Brett do this piece🐾👍🏻
Same but no one can compare Oistrakh
David Oistrakh has Tchaikowsky in his soul. So, nobody else can play it like him.
Marie Cantagrill can do that !!
agree
Well,He has his own way of doing it
Is there any better? This is my hero playing one of the most beautiful concertos, in a way that affects all. Oistrakh is and was...........the greatest.
His right hand.....nobody's ever had such one. Just fabulous.
Sa main droite, jamais vue chez aucun autre, tout simplement fabuleux.
Mélange de douceur, de précision et de vivacité, comment est-ce possible?
Pour moi le plus grand.
I have studied violin for 47 years.Two of my teachers were students of Oistrakh. They were passionate about him as a person and friend. After winning several top prizes at the most well known competitions, and concertizing as a reward, teaching has also become a blessing to my life. I will not be earning any new friends here today with this writing. However, my intention is not to tell the world my opinion of an already proven greatest violinist of his time. It is rare that I comment, however owning over 1200 records of the worlds greats and studying the various differences in techniques, sound quality, clarity, colors, as well as projection, bow techniques, strengths and limitations as purely a passionate enjoyment, I have become very concerned with the medeocrity that has presented itself throughout the reading of the decade of comments found here. Mr Oistrakh is a legacy, and his greatest strength is clearly his gift of interpretation. One comment stated that the listener was shocked that there could be 37 thumbs down at that time. For me however, it is alarming that there are any thumbs up or down permitted. This is clearly the most ridiculous way to respond to the performance of a violinist. Only through truly expressing ones beliefs and qualifications, provides the information needed to weigh the degree of credibility needed to properly submit the response towards our growth process. With that said, even though I love the recordings of Oistrakh, this discussion is based upon the question of who the greatest violinist of all time is. He can not even be a consideration for such place. A precise and accurately trained ear will hear that the intonation is all over the place. The projection is altered majorly in order to hear his forced sound in big passages. The consistency in bow pressure is as weak as his bow direction. His offered number of pieces performed was slim, and the audacity to pair him with Jascha Heifetz is purely the proof that todays violinists are being ripped off by the leadership shown to them throughout the vital years for conditioning and preparing ones ears and mind for the incredibly tough road of surviving as a violinist today. Please consider this radical comment as a possible favor and boldly needed information for your studies.
john olsen I'm nowhere near as versed in the violin as you, but nothing you said seems wrong. Oistrakh's interpretation is lacking in the ways that you indicated, and truly does not seem to be anywhere near the equal of what Heifetz did with this piece (incidentally, my favorite of what I know of Heifetz's catalog), and it's hard for me to imagine anyone finding it the equal of Heifetz's work other than that someone has spoonfed them the idea that it is. It's a sad world if people think that a comment such as the one that you made here is radical. It certainly kept me on the right track, and you have won my gratitude. Thank you.
Cry me a river
8:08 on is a piece of heaven. I have never heard this segment played with such sensitivity and grace. A master poet at work here.
I think this is my favorite rendition of this piece. Simply beautiful.
Best violinist who ever lived, IMO. Right here on the tube. Priceless.
Watch his wrist & fingers on the RH. Astounding technique, he creates such a smooth and clear articulation.
What a fitting 60th birthday! My only regret is he is no longer around for us to see live performances of his.
That's the best performance of one of the great composers. This represents all of the feeling, the quintessence of the romanticism. This music (and performance) can make you cry, fall in love, and get enegy. I love tchaikovsky, and Oistrakh. So Romantic, WHO DOES NOT LOVE?
The best interpretation.
Without doubt, one of the most POWERFUL pieces of music of all times... sublimely executed. Just beautiful.
Это мой любимый скрипичный концерт!!! А исполнение Ойстраха выше всяких похвал!!! Сто раз браво!!!
What a wonderful recording and a stellar performance! Used to play Tchaikovsky in my musical school, not this piece of course, smth from Swan Lake. Anyway, after turning 40, i started to understand his music, its musicality, a melody of falling dancing leaves and - ROMANCE. Thanks for the upload❤
Bellissimo, da far venire i brividi addosso per l'emozione. Grande Oistrakh.
I just discovered "youtube" not long ago. (Where have you been, girl?) What a luxury to listen to these world renown musicians with most famous orchestras accompanying them. Thank you, to all these people who made it possible! What I miss though is that often there is no mention of the conductor's name, the name of the orchestra and the date when it was recorded. This would really put it in context. However, even so, it is heaven! Elizabeth
This one has become my new favorite violin concerto ever! 👏👏
Man this has to be my favorite interpretation I’ve heard of the piece so far. He plays with such a heavy sense of romanticism that I think really captures what Tchaikovsky was going for. Super cool
Это Божественно! Слушала в исполнении гениальных Хейфеца, Менухина, Перлмана- неповторимо у каждого! Но мурашки по коже - от бесподобного Ойстраха!!!! Браво!
Единственный и неповторимый! Легенда!
Grande Oistrakh nell'interpretazione di questo concerto lo rende quasi unico e rende difficile per le nuove generazioni di violinisti adattarsi a questa disciplina musicale!
This was a live performance in Tchaikovsky Hall in Moscow in 1968. The Moscow Philharmonic is conducted by Gennadi Rozhdestvensky. This is one of several Ostankino films that were converted originally to VHS in 1995 and remastered to DVD in 2003.
best interpretation ever.
Isn't it enough to be grateful to these people for bring such beautiful things into our lives? Why do people love to compare, and say, this or that is better? If you relax and let go this music will shake all your judgments away and you will walk away as a new person, loving each and every moment.
Never gets old, what a supreme performance. Best ever ~~
Seriously, how could anyone watch this and not be completely and totally riveted by this guy's performance. Holy bananas!
wow, it sounds much touching than the Heifetz's interpretation in the movie~ though I was attracted by Heifetz's superb technique and power, Oistrakh's (as well as the Orchestra's) interpretation could make me feel more Russian when listening to this.
Such beauty, skill, perfection, passion, thousands and thousands of hours, wonderful to watch.
this song talks about life
You are so right -- the listener can feel the personal emotional struggles of Tchaikovsky that were bottled up inside him & that he could not express verbally (about his personal life), but which are palpable & can be felt so deeply through his extraordinary violin concerto. This is my personal favorite piece of music for this reason -- it speaks to all of us who cannot or do not wish to express the emotionally solitary existence of everyday life (perhaps all of us). By the way, when it was premiered it received the most negative reviews by music critics who said that it 'tore music asunder' & that it 'stunk to the ear'. So much for critics!
Additionally, I have never heard another violinist extract more of what it means to be a human being out of this piece; so I find comments about contests of technical issues to significantly miss what is so extraordinary about Oistrakh's interpretation of this incredible music.
Every note from start to finish is exciting, wonderful & meaningful. You are so right with your penetrating insight: this song talks about life. I never tire of it!

Please, never call it a song

@@varunsathya1912 sorry, I'm italian. It was a little mistake! :)
A long time ago I heard this and how it brings back memories of my youth and early music studies .Never forgotten......Thanks for the memory..
ive heard a few different recordings of this piece and this is the one that brought me to tears
Божественно - гениальная музыка в гениальном исполнении . . . Восторг и Восхищение . . .
La plus belle de toutes les interprétations de ce concerto jouée avec le coeur;David Oistrakh est assurement le violoniste qui fait passer le plus ses émotions au travers de son instrument de musique.
This is the best version of violin concerto in D op35. It really outperforms heifetz version. The slow tempo gives more russian feeling and a warm and nice sound. Heifetz just seems to rush at the end of the 1st move.
Oh! I just found my favorite performance of this piece. ❤️
sublime
Great, sumptuous, not rushed. Magnificent attacks of David.Orchestra sounds clear!
Much subtlety and details.
Oh Tchaikovsky and theRussian soul!!No buddy can played bettter then David Oistrakh
his finalle is simply the greatest i've seen on all the performances i've seen. the sheer emotion and power right at the end with the full force of that wonderful violin, is simply put, Awsome.
goodness, I can't seem to get this out of my head
Not only do I enjoy Oistrakh's playing, but the opening sounds incredible as well!
Прекрасное исполнение концерта. Всё настолько выверено... можно ли сыграть лучше? Замечательная скрипка, оркестр ей под стать, о скрипаче уже молчу... Просто эталон... И качество записи лучше многих современных... Какой это год?
it doesn't even sound like a violin!! It sounds like someone singing their heart out!! :D absolutely amazing~
Superb. I can't believe Janine Jansen has more likes and views than him. People, are you crazy or deaf? His interpretation is the best and on top of his masterliness, he is Russian, his interpretation is the real one. THE BEST OF THE BEST.
Critics has deemed Janine one of the best interpreters of Tchaikovsky of the 21st century. She is crazy good!
Lourdes Santiesteban ？をれ「お
Nice comment...
The video quality is the reason. Someone new in the classical word would will never listen to a really old record instead a fresh new one.
The youtube algarism might influence as well
Celebrating his 60th birthday - I'm celebrating that he was born to be The King of Violinists!
Thank you for posting the concert in two pieces, it's great to hear him playing it again. As a young university student I almost wore out my LP of him playing the concerto. It sounds so similar, but that album was with Eugene Ormandy, The Philadelphia Orchestra.
Que genial interpretación!!
No me canso de escucharla a diario
My violin teacher always told me that she was a student of David Oistrakh but I never thought he was a famous player like that. Wow im truely impressed
The Master is playing
I have heard a lot of artist play this piece. No one plays better than him especially the second movement. He is my king of violin!
Whoa! I never thought I would say this, but I like this better than Heifetz's recording, both are great though!
Definitely agree.. Both are legendary violinist and there's no doubt of it. But somehow i found that Oistrakh has the soul of Tchaikovsky in his playing. And those amazing loud sound is what Tchaikovsky demands.
Yehudi Menuhin mentioned that he would not have made a recording of The Tchaikovsky Concerto if he knew such recording existed after listening to Oistrahk's version
Pranav Eswaran
i gotta go with heifetz, this is great but heifetz is unreal
I am just unbelievably happy to be living in an age in which we have such a vast array of beautiful performances literally at our fingertips. Oistrakh, Perlman, Heifetz, we're truly spoilt for choice. This could be the richest cultural period in all of human history of only more would be aware of the amount of sheer artistry we have unprecedented access to.
one of the great violinists of our time
НАКОНЕЦ-ТО, Я ПОЙМАЛА НАШЕГО ДРАГОЦЕННОГО ДАВИДА -ВИРТУОЗА !!!
So unbelievable beautiful, I can have a dinner party anytime with David playing on the background and it would be the dinner party of the century!
THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As good as any ever recorded-in fact better!
This blows all the others away! Bravo! TY.
Гениально! И музыка и исполнение!
Magistral interpretación del Legendario Violinista ; Excelentísimo y Prestigioso Maestro y Concertista DAVID OISTRAKH ; ejecuta la Obra Maestra del Genial Compositor Ruso con un Nivel Expresivo y una exquisita y Maravillosa técnica ; unida a un excelente sonido y un fraseo que lo hace ser inigualable .Gracias por compartir tan brillante Video del EXCEPCIONAL VIOLINISTA .
Боже,как он играет,это капец!
this is so beautiful, nobody pours his soul into the music like Oistrakh, makes me cry every time him playing the Beethoven concerto - heavenly, but as always this is a question of personal fit, none of these top artist is better or worse but either his interpretation gets to you or it doesn't
Tschaikowsky.....Oistrakh....nobody can do this with such delecate phrasing and depth. Oistrakh is so connected to Tshaikowsky. Nobody better....!
SEncillamente impresionante
oh what an awesome performance! Up until now I've only heard the Heifetz, but man does Oistrakh do justice to this piece too
I met Tchaik through Oistrakh, for me he is the best in technique and he plays with his heart, every time I hear him I get goosebumps.😍🎻
Elegancia señores
