Isaac Stern - Haydn, Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky Violin Concertos (1945-50) [2017]

The present release brings together three concerto recordings by American violinist Isaac Stern, all taken from live performances early in his career, and accompanied by three legendary conductors, none of whom made commercial recordings of these works. While the Haydn concerto has seen limited LP release by the Japanese Stokowski Society, the remaining broadcasts are believed to be published here for the first time.
