4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not as good as other Oistrakh anthologies, Jun 4 2004
By Nabih B. Bulos (Baltimore, MD USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One can't help but feel somewhat tricked with this DVD. Why? Simply because there are far more clips of Oistrakh that were worthy of inclusion, including the entire Brahms concerto, Locatelli Labyrinth, Sibelius Concerto, Khachaturian Concerto, numerous Kreisler pieces, etc... Those clips were, to my mind, a good deal more interesting than most of the offerings on this well-photographed, well-restored, and all-round decent DVD. Nonetheless, it is always a pleasure to see Oistrakh, as his artistry is truly wonderful. Not just for die-hard Oistrakh fans, but also not my first choice for videos of him.

"David Oistrkh [IMPORT]" The correct last name is Oistrakh. A rare glimpse at one of the greatest violinist of all times.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oistrakh a legend, Feb 11 2004
By A Customer
We are talking about David Oistrakh here who is one of the very best violinist ever.
In this DVD you can still enjoy the warmth of his sound.
It's a must buy for any violinists out there!!!
And check out Rudolf Schwarz (He conducts the Brahms concerto).
He has the funniest baton works ever...

5.0 out of 5 stars 75 Minutes is Not Too Short
75 minutes is too short?

Well, yes and no. Yes, who wouldn't like more? And no, because we are almost given everything we could possibly expect from any DVD. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Oistrakh on DVD
Like some other BBC early-TV classical music presentations, this one is earnest and dull. Beethoven's "Spring" Sonata especially lacks vitality. Read more
