An Article on Leonid Kogan
From Andante: review of Kogan's recording including the Beethoven Violin Concerto
http://www.andante.com/article/article.cfm?id=19412
"The last significant reminder of Leonid Kogan's artistry was a two-CD set in EMI's 'Artist Profile' series released in 1993 and principally comprising the Brahms, Tchaikovsky and Beethoven Concertos with Kyrill Kondrashin and Constantin Silvestri, though he was also represented in some subsequent (and, come to that, far from insignificant) Revelation and Olympia issues. The present discs offer an important addition to his relatively meagre representation in the current catalogue. His artistry was of a perfection and classical purity that silenced criticism."
