![Leonid Kogan - Paganini Violin & Guitar Sonata No.1 [HD Restoration]
Filmed for Soviet TV in 1981, a year before Leonid Kogans death. I combined all of the clips of Kogan playing the Violin Concerto No. 1 in D major from all of the episodes of the show. The footage has been restored and AI upscaled, and a high quality audio source was found, with correct pitch.

Welcome to the Art of Invention...
