5 out of 5 stars Fascinating DVD, with a lovely Beethoven Violin Concerto   March 25, 2007
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

Here we have two of the least fussy and most respected of all classical musicians, Nathan Milstein and Sir Adrian Boult, in a DVD which gives great musical satisfaction and is also intriguing to watch. The performances date from 1972 (Boult was 83) and the sound is good. The Beethoven is a delight from beginning to end, with a well-paced, ardent and beautifully fluent first movement, a lovely slow movement with wonderful hushed tone from both soloist and orchestra and a buoyant finale. I don't know whose cadenzas Milstein uses - they may be his own - but they work well. Nearly everything about this performance is 'right', and the concentrated devotion of both soloist and conductor is very evident. There is no flamboyance at all, no distraction. The Vaughan Williams Symphony (No. 8) is very fine too as a performance, though I have pretty mixed feelings about it as a piece, but it's nice to see this most celebrated of all Vaughan Williams interpreters shaping the music as he does. The slow movement is lovely, and you can absolutely see how Boult's restrained gestures mould phrasing and climaxes. So this is an excellent DVD. Documentation is minimal, though there is a useful essay by Tully Potter as a Bonus on the disc. Warmly recommended.
