 A Great Performance September 22, 2014 By owen  ryan (lakewood, CA) See All My Reviews "Yehudi Menuhin, one of the 20th Century's great violinist, was an admirer of Zino Vinnikov's art. As a young Soviet Violinist Vinnikov won the 1966 Int. Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow and other prestigious competitions. He became a professor at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. In his subsequent performing career he has received critical acclaim. So what we have here is an acknowledged master of the violin conducting a performance by a talented violinist in what is generally considered one of the most technically difficult works for the violin. The result is a wonderful performance recorded by the skilled engineer, Dick Lewzey. This CD is a 5 star work in all respects." Report Abuse
