Mischa Elmans stärkste Eigenschaften waren schon immer sein großer, kerniger Ton und sein Sinn für den musikalischen Stil, ausgedrückt in der sorgfältigen und subtilen Umsetzung. Die klassischen Kompositionen auf dieser LP dienen dazu, diese Qualitäten ideal zur Geltung zu bringen. Aus jeder Sicht ist dies eine der besten seiner jüngsten Arbeiten vor dem Mikrofon.
High Fidelity
Mischa Elman's strongest attributes have always been his big, meaty tone and his sense of musical style, expressed in terms of phrasing both careful and subtle. The four classical compositions on this disc serve ideally to show off these qualities. From every standpoint, this is one of the best of his recent efforts before the recording microphone.

"Recital" Works by Giovanni Battista Sammartini, Tommaso Antonio Vitali, George Frideric Handel, Johann Sebastian Bach - Mischa Elman (v), Joseph Seiger (p) Elman still plays with charm and elegance ... In this batch of pieces, where the encore wags the concert, so to speak, Elman and Seiger combine war-horses and novelties in captivating manner. I was charmed by the exotic "From San Domingo", by Arthur Benjamin, with its echoes of guitars and popular songs. Charles Miller’s "Cubanaise" ... (its) vivacious rhythms and sonorous middle section are most appealing. Perhaps the item that most listeners will fall for is Elman’s arrangement of the so-called "Canto Amoroso" by Sammartini, an encore which Elman has made peculiarly his own. - Gramophone
