Truly one of the greatest recordings of the 20th Century. Not the slightest trace of sentimentality or show. Pure.
1st movement. "Like the wind in a graveyard," the composer remarked to Oistrakh during rehearsals.
I love both Andantes.
At school the local town had a marvellous little record shop who's lovely owner/manager shared very similar tastes to my 14-15 years old friend and I circa 76ish? Pop and rock on the right jazz and orchestral left. On this particular pocket money day which always translated as= vinyl day! turned out to be one of the most fortuitous and far reach ing day's thus far and dare I say 'ever'. On the right I chose 'Pere Ubu's Data Panic EP with the masterpiece '30 seconds over Tokyo ' and from the left this very piece with Ashkenazy and Perlman' (excuse spelling) to this day (March 2024) Both are masterpieces and I couldn't and most definitely wouldn't want a life without either of them ❤️
Надломленно и трагично. Как невыплаканные слёзы.
This is the definitive interpretation of this sonata. The standard by which all others are judged.
I disagree as further performers cannot be judged. This is definitive. Others can provide interesting contributions, but this level of playing is unimaginable, especially today...
Очень много чего в душе всколыхнула эта соната.
Wonderful. Just wonderful. Thank you. One of my favorite works of the 20th century repertoire.
Die beste Kombination des Komponisten, des Violinisten und des Pianisten bis heute! Die Tonqualitüt ist auch estaunlich hoch als eine Aufnahme von nur ein Jahr später als das Kriegsende. Die damalige UdSSR war wirklich ein musikalisches Wunder im 20. Jahrhundert!
Oborin soll Lieblingspartner von Oistrach gewesen sein .. da spürt man ein Ganzes: einen Klang und eine Seele...
Bestimmt so. Danke!
Wow. The air crystallizes to concrete. This is really great.
EXACTLY, m'Mannnnnnnnn! Could not (for once) have better expressed it myself
Absolutamente maravillosos este par de Genios, Prokofiev y D. Oistrakh más el también maravilloso pianista Lev Oborin.
I admire endleslly...5:25🎻❤❤❤Divine music,divine interpretation💕
Modal portal to heaven
I, for one, have no complaints about this 1946 recording which must have followed the premiere by this pair on 23 Oct 1946 (at Moscow Conservatory).
Oistrakh wrote: "Never have I been so completely absorbed in a piece of music. Until the first public performance I could play nothing else, think of nothing else."
That slithery violin sends shivers dowm my spine
I'm probably way too late, but did you know: You were about this since Prokofiev actually wanted to depict wind breezing through a graveyard by this!
Thank you so much for sharing!!
Insanely well played, this is the gold standard!!! The other great recording of this piece is Oistrakh with Yampolsky.
Thank you for posting this video. What a beautiful piece.
I wouldn't call it a "video"; however, it's awesome nonetheless!
Thank you for posting this video!! That’s how I got to know this piece.
Having a softspot for Prokofiev and Oistrakh so..
T H A N K S!
I want this on LP so bad..
And don't forget Lev Oborin! He was Oistrakh's partner through so much great music.
As Kristian pointed out, the balance is not what Prokofiev intended, which I believe both instruments should be competing most of the time of the more forté passages. I think Oistrakh and Oborin yearned for the more beauty and vivid side of this piece, which was a good rendition (except the balance). However, I believe it was Oistrakh and Richter who fully unleashed the darkness/sadness/defeat and captured the essence of this piece in 1972 (multiple versions available at youtube).
Xiyue Deng it's a bad recording. Prokofiev instructed them at rehersal not to back down with the piano and play the sonata as a duet.
I love this sonata, and it is exciting to find a recording here of the violinist for whom it was written and to whom it was dedicated. I am wondering if this has been transferred from an LP that might be slightly warped or perhaps a turntable not quite at speed, because it is not quite at pitch.
There really was no '440hz' standard back in the time (particularly in Moscow), its just whatever A the piano has in most cases (which is usually close enough but still), I have perfect pitch and play violin, yet I had to learn to adjust to these things, and I can enjoy music of practically any pitch, as long as relative to each other the notes are clean

Life!!!!
Seems like the speed of the playback got a bit shifted for a second at 26:30.
Yes indeed!
This is sheer genius; there must be a special place in hell for the ten thumbs down voters.
b1i2l336 Why let it worry you? Trolls exist. Shit happens. RUclips gives them the chance to give things a thumbs down, God knows why.
2nd movement - 'Hey stupid, hey stupid, ya you. C'mere.'
Thank you for sharing ! Genius music and genius performers ......Amazing colours , snow , ice , freezing cold , WW2 , the madness of Communism ....the whole tragedy of Russia !
Prokofiev does Shostakovich better then Shostakovich
Some of their pieces sound like the other may have composed them
While i haven't heard a lot of prokofiev, early shostakovich has an air of optimism he kept losing along his life
With the pieces shostakovich later composed and so much of prokofiev's music, it sounds like they'd be putting out pieces inspired by each other, even if that may not actually be true
I don't understand how they claimed to have never understood the other
The balance between violin and piano is not very good (predictably, in the violin's favour), detracting from an otherwise stellar performance. The mysterious scales in the 1st and 4th movements should sound much more chilling. Try the recent recording by Alina Ibragimova/Steven Osborne which, while not perfect, is very gripping and much better recorded.
Kristian Rasmussen Well, don't we have to be grateful that we can hear this historic document which was recorded freakin 70 years ago? Yes. 70 freakin years ago!!! Technology back then was still under question as you might assume, though.
At rehersal, Prokofiev stopped them at some point and yelled why the pianist was backing down to which he replayed that he doesn't want to cover up the violin and Prokofiev explained how in this sonata the importances of the violin and the piano are equal and that he should do no such thing as lower the dynamics.
Lev Oboring
Who are you though?
The scales are perfect
