Title: Could not agree more with "teva man"
Review: I could not agree more with "teva man" regarding the Tschaikovsky performance. One of the worst I've ever heard. No wonder. Mr. Gitlis' specialties are either "tidbits" or Paganini, which makes him what we call a "fiddle player", not a "violinist" let alone a musician. Only technique. And even here we're certainly not at the top. His bowing is often unsatisfactory which results in a harsh sound. His phrasing lacks musicallity and taste and also the value of the notes is only an "option". (Ever tried to listen to his Franck sonata)??As far as the conductor and the orchestra are concerned, they sure had a hard time. I know this from a very reliable source, the conductor, who happens to be my late husband. This kind of soloists, illogical, unmusical, unreliable, are what conductors hate most.My advice as a musician. Don't buy.Printemps65Italy
