All this time of playing Canzonetta, I had no idea I was playing the 2nd movement of what is considered an impossible concerto... Hmmm...

Anyway, enjoy!

Thanks.

I suspect that the "epic" Tchaikovsky, and there is probably no Youtube of it, was the one performed by Oistrach in the winter of 1942 in STalingrad where he insisted on completing it despite massive German bombing of the city.
