Listened to the Beethoven Violin Concerto played by Erich Röhn with Furtwängler (January 1944). This is probably the best Beethoven vc ever recorded. For a change, the orchestra sounds a complete equal to the violin. Röhn’s playing here is completely on a par with Kreisler or Menuhin in this work. A really enthralling performance (and I have always considered that the Beethoven concerto really is one of those works I have just heard once too often).
If only someone could find a way to remove coughs from recorded concerts! The constant coughing is the (only) drawback to this performance.
