Leonid Kogan / Constantin Silvestri - Beethoven: Violin Concerto in D Major Op. 61 LP
Recorded at the Salle Wagram, Paris on 10 November 1959
Extremely rare original first French stereo pressing on Columbia SAXF 162, ED1.
Record: VG (obvious signs of use but not abuse; fully play-graded, clear sound with no distortion; a rather short episode of light ticking on side 2 caused by a minor needle mark; still a great copy, even for a demanding collector)
Sleeve: NM (sharp all round)
