Reviews:
After the success of their Dvorak Violin Concerto, Cisco's been itching to do another LP featuring their favorite violinist. They finally got their chance with Tchaikovsky's emotionally enigmatic and structurally sophisticated concerto. Written during a period of great personal turmoil, every memorable melody and sharply dynamic contrast teems with yearning, purpose and subtext. It's also easy on the ears. Milstein's silvery tone and respectful phrasing illuminates the rich orchestral detailing and majestic themes Tchaikovsky labored over in 1878. Milstein's Capitol Records partner William Steinberg and the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra provide typically outstanding support. Cisco's all-analog mastering rewards listeners with powerful dynamic variation, rich sound stage and that inimitable Milstein tone.
