5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning version of Bach Chaconne (BMV 1004), March 25, 2002
This review is from: The 1953 Library of Congress Recital Great Performances from the Library of Congress: Vol. 4 (Audio CD)
I apologize for an uneducated review, but I am none the less compelled to recommend this recording if only for the performance of the Chaconne from the Dmin partita 1004.

I have many, many versions of this chaconne and yet each time I sample this Milstein performance I am enraptured by the passion. This is a much less controlled version than Perlman's, which is my other favorite. With Perlman's version I easily climb a musical stairway to bliss; with this (the 1953 recording) I am swept aloft.

By the end of the Chaconne you'll have been transported beyond thinking about the sound quality of this older recording which is more than acceptable considering the musicality.
