"Devil's Trill" Sonata / Sonata In B Flat, K. 454
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
David Oistrakh was arguably the finest violinist of the 20th century, and this 1956 Columbia recording showcases his artistry with two masterworks: Tartini's "Devil's Trill" Sonata in G minor and Mozart's Sonata in B-flat major, K. 454. Oistrakh's tone is warm yet crystalline, his phrasing impeccable—there's an unfussy intelligence to his interpretation. The "Devil's Trill" receives a reading that's musical above all else, while Mozart's K. 454 sparkles with elegance. This is a classic recording from a golden age of vinyl-era classical documentation, and vintage Columbia pressings have aged beautifully. Essential for serious classical collectors and anyone appreciating violin performance at the highest level.
