Glazoenov & Sjostakovitsj: Vioolconcerten (1989)/ Itzhak Perlman

"There is no violinist in the world today who in sheer bravura can quite match Perlman, and that quality brims out the more generously, as here, in a live performance of the Shostakovich Concert. The ovation which greets Perlman's dazzling performance of the finale, commandingly secure at a very fast speed, is fully justified. It is an exciting experience." En over Glazoenovs Vioolconcert in dezelfde recensie: "The command and panache of Perlman are irresistible, and the whole performance erupts into a glorious account of the galloping final section, one to match even Heifetz's legendary versions, and who cares if the tuttis are a little rough in sound. Anyone fancying the coupling will not be disappointed." (Edward Greenfield, Gramophone)
