Synopsis

Album Description

2009 eight CD set. Great violinists come in all shapes and sizes and in all shades of intensity, so we should not expect Szymon Goldberg (1907-1993) to be like anyone else, or measure his achievement against those of other players. Despite an often difficult life, he had an extraordinary ability to project a balanced view of the music he played. He was the archetypal Classical violinist and in his everyday life, behaved exactly as he played - a rare gift.

CD Reviews

Interesting items from a man who was too rarely recorded

Michael D. Stein | White Plains, New York USA | 02/27/2010

(4 out of 5 stars)

"The sound is variable, which is to be expected given the source material. But quite often that amazing Goldberg sound, warm and so humanly engaging, comes through, and no one has ever, in my view, been able to duplicate it."
