Composser: Eugène Ysaÿe (1858, Liège -- 1931, Bruxelles). Player: David Oistrakh (1908, Odessa . 1974, Amsterdam). Title of Composition: Sonata for solo violin no. 3 in D minor ("Ballade"), Op. 27/3. Date Record: January 1, 1947.
Wonderful contrasting Oistrakh & Zehetmair performances. Zehetmair more breathtakingly brilliant: Oistrakh more intense and thought-provoking. I could not do without either!
