Filmed for Soviet TV in 1981, a year before Leonid Kogan's 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.
There are a handful of incredibly inspiring (and inspired) renditions of Paganini, such as that of Rabin, Ferras, Hirschhorn, Roman Kim, Gitlis and others, but I still think Kogan is the all-time King of Paganini!
Violin Concerto No.1, Op.6 in D major
00:00 - 1. Allegro maestoso
07:49 - 2. Adagio espressivo
12:43 - 3. Rondo. Allegro spiritoso
