Virtuosi 2: Szigeti Beecham and Prokofiev
Prokofiev: Violin Concerto No.1 in D major, Op.19

From 1935, a wonderful performance by Szigeti of a modern work.
One thought on “Virtuosi 2: Szigeti Beecham and Prokofiev”
Thanks for the cover of the original Columbia 78 album. I was amazed to realize the source was 1930s technology. Overall, the mono sound of the LP set is astonishing. Incredible performances of great slightly obscure repertory. I hope you post any more graphics you turn up. Unfortunately my copy is missing the booklet.
