Kogan is more than I can say about. And playing with legendary Kondrashin!? This performance make me forget all my woes...Thank you so much for this posting! Thanks Master Kogan, "primus interpares"...

Hahn is good and very cute. However, her name does not belong in the same sentence as Kogan, a legend and giant of the violin.

The only sin here is only having the last 20 seconds of the cadenza, wtf!

May be she does not really like violin.I guess.

agree with you ,'The Hilary Hahn recording has much to learn compared to this Russian giant'.

What a remarkable recording.The passion, and charisma. He is so sincere with his musical interpretation. He makes Shostakovich Beautiful.The Hilary Hahn recording has much to learn compared to this Russian giant.Kogan and Oistrakh's recordings of the Shosty Concerto will remain the standard.
