I have listened to a great number of recordings of this work, but I never heard a more musical and subtle performance. His range of expression goes from the most tender to wildly passionate, yet he remains always in best taste and idiomatic slavonic style. His performance shows real understanding. It reveals the work as the masterpiece it is, which many others fail in their interpretation to do. Out of the many famous Ilona Pheher's students, Ashkenasi is by far my favourite violinist!
