Leonid Kogan - Leonid Kogan Edition (2006) (10CD Box Set) REPOST

Leonid Kogan occupies a privileged place of honor at the time of quoting the great soloists of the instrument. His igneous vitality, mercurial energy, indomitable artistic conviction and unrestricted passion with which he "played" with the violin as it were made Kogan (1924-1978) a legend that transcended the barriers of spellbinding virtuosity to become obligatory reference, alpha and omega for many accomplished violinists of the present and future.

This ambitious selection contains only a part of the immense legacy of his recorded output and includes a series of recitals and concerts at the former Soviet Union.

Despite the poor sound typical of existing technology at the time, such is the magnificence of his style and his ineffable musicality that automatically you can easily block these external factor
