About

‘The Smetana and Kodály are both evocative works and so attractive … The recording, both of violin and piano, excellent, and well balanced’ – Gramophone (Miniatures)

‘the fiddle playing is superb, especially in the Wieniawskis, Träumerei, the delightful Sarasate dance and the attractive Nováček, which is magically played … many short encores here are gems.  Milstein would toss these off with ease, whilst the audience would be spellbound, waiting for more’ – Gramophone (Vignettes)

Recorded 1956, 1958 & 1960

Reviews

Parnassus’s 79-minute miscellany of genre pieces drawn from Milstein’s various Capitol LP recital programmes is warmly transferred... Chopin’s Nocturne No 20 on C sharp minor is that stuff that dreams are accompanied by, tonally pure and touched with an Italianate air. ... Twenty-six titles in all to relish, savour and return to at will.  Rob Cowan
Gramophone September 2024
