It was performed during one of the Maestro’s last\nconcerts as music director of the New York Philharmonic. Toscanini’s\nbreakneck tempo in the finale shows that his later broadcast with Heifetz\n(on Pristine PASC 278) was not an interpretive anomaly.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe Dvořák is a double rarity in that it is not only the sole recording of\na Milstein performance with Stokowski, but it is also previously unissued.\nAdditionally, it expands Stokowski’s slim discography of that composer’s\nworks beyond the “New World” Symphony, the Serenade for Strings and a\nsingle Slavonic Dance. The conductor’s inimitable voice can be heard saying\n“Bravo” at the end of the performance.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMark Obert-Thorn\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_download_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample3_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample4_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample5_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample6_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_labelfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5fFull Track Listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_typefb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5ftrack_listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_contentfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLALO: Symphonie espagnole, Op. 21\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n1. 1st Mvt. – Allegro non troppo (7:28)\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n2. 2nd Mvt. – Scherzando (3:53)\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n3. 4th Mvt. – Andante (6:14)\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n4. 5th Mvt. – Rondo (6:37)\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nRecorded 19 November 1944 \u0026amp;

Widely\nconsidered one of the finest violinists of the 20th century, Milstein was\nknown for his interpretations of\n\nBach's\n\nsolo violin works and for works from the\n\nRomantic\n\nperiod. He was also known for his long career: he performed at a high level\ninto his mid-80s, retiring only after suffering a broken hand.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nMilstein was born in Odessa,\nthen part of the\n\nRussian Empire\n\n, the fourth child of seven, to a middle-class Jewish family with virtually\nno musical background. It was a concert by the 11-year-old\n\nJascha Heifetz\n\nthat inspired his parents to make a violinist out of Milstein. He started\nviolin studies with the eminent pedagogue\n\nPyotr Stolyarsky\n\n, also the teacher of\n\nDavid Oistrakh\n\n. When Milstein was 11,\n\nLeopold Auer\n\ninvited him to become one of his students at the\n\nSt. Petersburg Conservatory\n\n. Milstein may in fact have been the last of the great Russian violinists\nto have had personal contact with Auer. He also studied with\n\nEugène Ysaÿe\n\nin Belgium.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nMilstein met\n\nVladimir Horowitz\n\nin 1921 when he played a recital in Kiev.\nMilstein and Horowitz performed together throughout the\n\nSoviet Union\n\nand struck up a lifelong friendship. In 1925, they went on a concert tour\nof Western Europe together. Milstein made his American debut in 1929 with\n\nLeopold Stokowski\n\nand the\n\nPhiladelphia Orchestra\n\n. He eventually settled in New York and became an American citizen. He\ntoured repeatedly throughout Europe, maintaining residences in London and\nParis.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nA transcriber and composer, Milstein arranged many works for violin and\nwrote his own\n\ncadenzas\n\nfor many concertos. He was obsessed with articulating each note perfectly\nand would often spend long periods of time working out fingerings which\nwould make passages sound more articulated.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nA recital he gave in Stockholm in July 1986 proved to be his final\nperformance. It was recorded in its entirety, and shows the remarkable\ncondition of his technique at age 82. A fall shortly afterwards in which he\nseverely broke his left hand ended his career.
