EMI released that recording at the same time as the Brahms Double Concerto
with Oistrakh/Rostropovich/Szell/Cleveland. I think those LPs (along with
a Dvorak 8), were Szell's very last recordings--1969 or early '70. Most of
the review praise went to the Double, with more limited enthusiasm for the
Violin Concerto. Does anyone know if they've been paired on a CD? If so,
definitely worth snagging. Cheers,
