Milstein and De Sabata Brahms Violin Concerto 1950 NY Philharmonic
Published 2024-07-09
This recording was ultimately released on vinyl in several forms that appear to now be on YouTube (along with other radio recordings like this one). But I think it’s important for completeness to include it along with my other NY Philharmonic radio broadcasts.

A fair amount of dips and fades, especially at the start. Not much I could do about them. I did refresh the sound with a bit of light EQ. The introduction was hacked up on the tape so I did some slight edits to make it a bit more understandable.
