Philip Peters "got going:" >I know a lot of recordings that I would rate higher than or at least as >good as Kremer/Argerich. For instance: Grumiaux/Haskil, Kreisler/Rupp, >Heifetz/Bay, Szeryng/Haebler, Menuhin/.Kempff, Goldberg/Krauss >(incomplete), Schneiderhan/Seemann, Oistrakh/Oborin, Suk/Panenka, >Stern/Istomin, Francescatti/Casadesus, Leonid & Nina Kogan (incomplete), >Busch/Serkin (incomplete), Szigeti/ Bartok (very incomplete ;), >Perlman/Ashkenazy.....hm...er....sorry....got a but carried away here.... Hey, Philip: It's kind of obvious that you don't like the Kremer/Argerich recordings very much and I'm wondering why. These are the first recordings of the Violin concertos that I have heard and they impress me very much. I find them honest and moving. I feel that a good way to learn about music is to compare different performances, so if I was to get another set of recordings to compare, which one(s) do you think they should be? Thanks, a lot.
